that bicycle riding was merely a fad
and would soon lose its popularity.
It was the fad of a few , to be sure ,
but the bicycle has proved itself so
useful that It has been adopted as a
business vehicle in the city as well as
In the country. Last year more than
plx bandred thousand bicycles were
sold In the United States ; and In
B ranee more than twice as many bicy

men who have settled in England is
about equal ; of those who have gone
to Canada the women are in the ma

Along with the expressions of alarm

an excuse to "flash a gun. " Pea <
officers should have authority to sir
press the carrying of weapons by irr
sponsible parties , even if a legal pr

Instance as would allow them to a
rest at sight all suspicious charactcj

such were found , heavy fientenet

The theory of Dr. J. D. Robertsoj
expressed before a Chicago medic ?

an observant man of many thln

On the other hand , the natives of th

civilization the children who from an\
cause , either poverty or inclinatio ;
wallow in the dirt in city , town an
country are generally vigorous , whii.
the pampered children , rich or pee
who are scrubbed to shining are ft
reverse. Their vitality seems to slim-
el up like the skin of a washerwoman
hands. He may recall , also , a curlou
New York experience. Some years ai :
the authorities , desiring to convinr-
the slum dwellers of the hygienic valu
of bathing and cleanliness in genera
and the disease-breeding powers o
filth , divided the city into districts , s-
adjusted as to contrast as sharply a *
possible the districts where overcrowd
ing and dirt prevailed with thos
wherein the people bathed frequently
and wore clean clothes. One d is trie
included the territory east of Broad
way , south of Fourteenth street , wher
the population is denser than any
where else in the country and quit
as grimy. Another was the adjacen :
and less odorous but still fusty re
gion west of Broadway , and then th
districts ran back by degrees int <
the high , airy , cleanly residence re
gions above and to the west of Gen
tral Park. They then took a hygienic
or disease census by district lines
perfectly confident that the showing
would be of appalling prevalence ol
zymotic and probably other disease in
the slum districts as compared witl
the others. When the returns were nl.
in and tabulated the zealous workers
for the soap aud water habit were ap
palled indeed , but it was by the fact
that the figures showed by far the
lowest disease and death rate in the
crowded district east of Broadway
and south of Fourteenth , where they
liad expected the highest , and that the
rate grew , through all the other divis
ions , until it rose to really alarming
aeight in the breezy regions of up
town. The east side was never hold
ip to itself as an object lesson. The
eformers took the whole matter un-
ler advisement and pigeon-holed the
: ensus. After all , is not this matter
> f frequent or infrequent bathing like
10 many other human habits and
ustes , a matter of the Individual ?

Over trifles that go wrong ;

All the blessings , right along ;

Every day brings something new.
on't give up the hope to rise ,

And to-morrow may be bringing just
the needed chance for you.
is time to quit the grieving
For the good old happy days ;

Danish Expedition in Greenland Meet
with Important Success.
An expedition left Copenhagen fc
Greenland in July , 1902. Its purpos
was not especially exploration , the ii
tentiou being rather to collect good m *
terial of all kinds fur a general descrij
lion of the island and its people. 1
was called in Denmark the Danish 11
ernry Greenland expedition.
Perhaps the word "literary' ' has nc
been applied before to a company c
geographic 'travelers. The German
have not quite made out the namt
and so have dubbed the party the sc
culled literary Greenland expedition.
In spite of its name , the party ha
done very creditable work and alread ;
carried out the greater part of its prc
gram. Arriving at Godthaab near th
end of the summer of 1002 , it went b ;
boat to .Takobshavn , on the neighbor
" ? mainland , and established while
miarters there.
In February the expedition started
just as the sun appeared above th
southern hills , for Upernivik , the mos
northern village of the Danes in Green
land. Then a genuine piece of explora
tiou was mostly successfully carriei
out.
March 24 Erichsen , Knud. Rasmus
sen , an educated Dane who was benIn
In Greenland and is a perfect maste
of the Eskimo language , and IlaroU
Moltke , the artist , started along tin
coast to follow it to Cape York , th <
southern limit of the habitat of the
Smith Sound Highlanders. The new ;
that the party skirted the whole coasi
from Upernivik to Cape York shows
that it accomplished a piece ol explo
ration which has several times h "i
attempted , but has never before beei
achieved.
One of the Peary expeditions sue
ceeded in surveying the northern hall
of the wide indentation of Melville
Bay south of Cape York , but the entire
coastline of this famous bay had never
been revealed.-So maptnakers have not
been able to place on their maps of
Greenland the outline of this part of
the western coast. In completing this
survey the literary fellows from Den
mark have made a distinct contribu
tion to the mapping of arctic regions.
The physician. Dr. Bertelsou , who
was with the party to study the dis
eases of Greenland and the influence of
the dark period of the year upon the
quality of the blood corpuscles , com
pleted his investigations , and then de
sired to reach the east coast and to
make similar studies among the 500
Eskimos on that side of the Island.
The doctor was only about 250 miles
from them , but he was compelled to
take a yery circuitous route to reach
them , and he will not arrive at Ang-
magsalik colonoy until next summer.
In August last he returned to Copen
hagen on the steamer GodthaaJ ) . and
next spring he will go on the steamer
to Angmagsalik.
This party is not a government expe
dition , but was sent out at the ex
pense of varioxis societies and private
Individuals. The last result of the ex
pedition will be u book which , it is ex
pected , will be both good reading and
scientifically accurate. It will include
: esearches in several departments of
science and als-o the first complete map

MAYOR HAS LARGE SALARY.
London's Kxecntive Spend- * More Than
lie Receives * in Ktitertniniutr.
One of the best paid oflicials in En
gland is the lord mayor of London.
Nevertheless a poor man cannot af-
'ord to accept this ottice even if he
* mld get it , for large as the compen-
ation is it does not suffice to meet the
mtlay required of this official. At one
ime. the election of London's lord
uayor took place on the feast of St.
Simon and St. Jude ( Oct. 28) ) . Then it
vas changed to the feast of the Trans-
ation of Edward the Confessor ( Oct.
3) ) , but since the year 1540 it has in-
ariably taken place on Michaelmas
lay , says the London Chronicle. The
ord mayor receives out of the city's
ash 10,000 , more than twice as much
s was received by Lord Mayor Wilkes
n 1774. But his expenses are usually
nuch in excess of his allowance.
Vilkes' account showed a balance of
xpenditure over receipts of 3,337.
unong other curious items of revenue
rns 702 from the "cocket" office , an
nnu.il present of plate from the Jews ,
rorth 50 : alienation of a young man's
lace , 40 , and sale of a young man's
lace , 1,000.
Many lord mayors besides Whitting-
311 have risen from low estate. Sir
Villiam Staines , who Avas lord mayor
: i 1S01. has been a common bricklayer ,
.n old lady foretold Sir William's
ortune. She said he would be lord
jayor during a period of turbulence
nd .scarcity ; that we should be at
, rar with France , but that during his
layoralty peace and j > leiity would be J
estored. The 'prophecy was fulfilled
3 the letter. At the beginning of his ] '
layoralty we were at war with our
'rench neighbors , and Nelson was pre-
'
anted at the Guildhall with the sword
ubllcly voted after the battle of the
* i
file. There was also great scarcity ,
read being 12 d the quartern loaf. ]
'
iread riots were the order of the day. .
iefore Sir William Staines' term ol
'
ffice had expired peace was declared ,
ud it was hoped that bread would ,
ill to 9d the quartern loaf.

What Makes a Woman Popular ?
Wliich of these factors is more p <

tf gray matter will render a woma
lopular with her own sex or with he
hascujine critics If she 1ms no reg r
'or ' the dainty touches of her toilet ?
Dress is not essential to the woma
if character say some , it is the ma
lehind the gun who counts , the 'brai
tnder the hat , the heart beneath th
orsage that makes friends and win
topularity. Yes , but who can gainsa ;
he fact that a brainy woman is nou
he less brainy because she wears i

B the duty of every woman to be wel

STor is it always wise for a woman'
vaist to be us broad as herviews. 1
Voman is at her best when she is con
icious of looking well , and a pretrj

A pretty gown is , moreover , con

veil-gowned woman is pleased witl
herself and consequently sees only thi
reflection of rose-hued tints in tlu
faces of her friends. She is joyou :

Some Remark * on Corsets.
W. E. Frothingill says that the mod-
n woman wears heavy skirts , the
eight of which is supported by bands
ound her waist that soft portion of
e body that Is protected by no body
alls. How is it possible to wear
ound this portion of the body bands
hich support the weight of numer-
is and often heavy garments ? The
iswer Is , by means of the corset
lie garment forms a bridge connect-
g the firm chest wall with the firm
ivls. The use of the corset Is to
ansmit the pressure of the skirt-
mds to the hips , and the ribs , and
i protect from their pressure the or-
ins In the region of the waist The
inclusion Is , that so long as skirt-
inds are fastened round the waist ,
irsets should be worn. They stiould
stiff er than usually made If they are
tectlvely to protect the soft , middle
wtion of the body from the pressure
the waistband. The front should be
lite straight , aad the waist measure-
ent should be at least as large as the
earer'ji waist , measured over a single ,
soft garment The abuse of the articl
consists in employing it as a mean
of compressing that which it wa
meant to protect from compressing
namely , the soft , middle portion of th
body. Fashion in corsets has of lat

pproaches the island the women pull
be gray cowl of their coseacks over
tieir heads and turn their backs. Pro-
isions are never Imported , as the wo-
