A unique Institution has recently come
Into vogue among the smart set that It Is
pleased to call a "Philadelphia treat." Just
why this particular kind of treat should he
named for the Quaker city, society does not
seem to know; possibly for the snmo
reason that one speak of Dutch treats
ml French spreads but, be that as It may,
the Philadelphia treat Is by far tho most
popular diversion that society has at pres
ent. Even golf cannot bo excepted In
this cabc, but that Is only because It Is a
part of the treat and It Is In this very re
spect that tho Philadelphia variety has Its
Immense advantage over all others.
A man or woman, as tho caso may be,
suggests to a friend or a half dozen friends
that they all go out to tho Country club
some afternoon nnd have a game of golf
with tho additional proposal that all will
lunch together when tho game Is over. Of
course this suggestion usually meets with
general approval and they go the rounds of
tho links. Then they have dinner, lunch or
lemonade or sit on tho veranda and order
mIxtureH of all sorts of harmless things
and talk and when they get ready go
home. It Is doubtless the utter lack of
formality that has made this kind of after
noon so popular.
"Oh dear," said a charming debutant
tho other day, a member of one of these
parties that had sat for some time without
saying a word, "Aren't you all sorry that
wo will have to stop this sort of thing so
soon."

PLAYED A PRACTICAL JOKE
Mnnnwcr of lintel Colorado Pllvhe.

HiittiliiK INinl.
GLENWOOD SPRINGS, Colo., July 28.-(Speclal.)-Charles
Martin, tho man
nger of tho Hotel Colorado, Is
a practlcnl Joker of tho deep
est dye. The past week a number of lady
and gentleman friends camo from Denver
to spend a tiw weeks nt the Colorado. Thoy
wero thoroughly enjoying themselves, but
Mr. Martin thought ho would glvo them
something out of tho ordinary. At th din
ner table one evening tho women wero
greatly distressed because Mr. Martin wan
engaged In nn apparently bitter dispute
with his friend, T. C. Voorhees of Now
York. They had been on tho best of terms
for a number of years, but It seemed as If
the break had Indeed come. But why had
they chosen tho dinner tablo as a place to
ulr their grievances and why wero they
quarreling over such a trivial matter?
Tho women wero worried and did their best
to bring nbout harmony betweon tho two
but all to no avail. When tho party Anally
left tho dinner table tho gentlemen werr
still nt sword's points nnd nbout nn hour
Inter Mr. Voorhees suggested that thoy all
go down to tho swimming pool. Mr. Mar
tin, to tho surprise of all, assented, for tho
unkind words had not yet ceased. An
other thing nppenred strange. When tho
party, left for the pool it seemed ns If all
the guests of the hotel were going In tho
same direction. When they arrived nt tho
bath houso tho platform along tho pool was
crowded with the guests. To tho dismay of
tho . women tho two men recommenced
their quarreling conversation.
Mr. Voorhees asked Mr. Martin to go
Into tho pool with him. Mr. Martin de
clined, whereupon his friend, asserting that
he took the refusal as n personal insult,
again asked him if he would go In.
' No, sir! I shall not go Into the pool
this evening."
"You won't? I say you shall!" answered
Mr. Voorhees and with theso words ho
gave his friend n shove nnd splash over
he went Into the pool. Immediately there
wns great excitement. The women shrieked.
Ono cried In despair: "Oh, please, somo
one Jump In and save him," but no one
Jumped. Fortunately thn water was only
four feet deep whero tho crimo was perpe
trated nnd while one woman ran nlong tho
edgo of the pool and In quivering voice
nsked how sho could reaeh him every one
else was convulsed with laughter. To the
guests It was n hugo Joke; to tho women tho
beginning of n tragedy. Tho guests had
been Invited to partlclpato in tho fun. The
women had been Invited as n necessary part
of tho "daramtls personno." Mr. Martin
had that evening put on some old clothes
over his bathing suit. The conversation nt
tho dinner tablo, tho unfriendliness ex
hibited, the sccno at the pool, had nil
been prearranged. It took two hoi -s to
convince the women that the affair was a
Joko, pure and simple. They aro now thirst
ing for revenge. Something out of the or
dinary happens each week at the Colorado
nnd tho guests nro enjoying the treat Im

Beauty and tho bath have ever been
closely associated. In every ago of the world
and among nearly all peoples the virtues
of tho bath have been admitted without ar
gument. The hatha of anclont Rome have
beou celebrated In song nnd story, the Hin
doo still batheti In his sacred river and tho
New Zenlander renews his youth In a foun
tain of hot mud. Even the Indian at times
takes a primitive bath of steam by wrapping
himself nnd his blanket about a puddle of
wnter Into which he piuhcs hot stones. Tho
Turkish bath Is familiar to all; the Ameri
can goes to the hot springs for health nnd
the seaside for pleasure, and the English
man cannot exist without his morning tub.
If tho Chinaman bathes nt all he does it
with a mental reservation nnd keess the
result to himself, but the ono fact is every
where evident that proper bathing Is con
ducive to health, beauty nnd long llfo.
Upon this well grounded theory the Now
Renstroni Bath Co. hns combined the best
from many different plans, and the result nf
much experiment, covering a period of sev
eral years, has been mure than satisfactory,
almost marvelous, In fact. Tho Renstroni
syetcm Is a virtual restorer of youth. The
mode of operation Is entirely now and the
appliances novel and complex. Electricity,
massage and steam enter Into the treatment
nnd wo shall havo occasion later to mention
somo wonderful results obtnlned In the res
toration of youthful form and vigor nnd the
entire elimination of rheumatism and nerv
ous troubles. Expert lady operatora and a
maid tn attend!.. The ladles should visit
tho Rathery nnd inspect this new plan to
restore and retain youth and health. Sec
