KEEPING WELL AND HAPPY
Coafeealeas of Mtddla-Aed Maa
Wis Smile Away the Kavmsras
I Tim.
Now yea wast to know how sa eld fellow
like me keeps himself well snd happy.
I should be Inclined therefore te answer
the question that lad te the writing of this
letter by saying that "a man advanolng In
years," who wishes te exercise without be
ing bored, should by all means provide
himself with some children the more the
better!
To teach ysur sea ts shoot, te pass a base
Vail with him, to play tennis or golf with.
him, or spar with him; to nde with the
little daughter, and teach the trig one te
drive her ponies tandem ; er to receive the
open-eyed admiration sf the small daughter
whs still finds skating a sedentary eooupa
tion, at your mediocre ability to do the
Dutch roll and the outside edge backward
these sre really the most refreshing ex
ercises sn eld chap sf "advanolng years"
can take. There Is as toestloa sf being
bored st such times.
Next to playing wtth ysur children, a
good form of exercise Is walking. They
say Bayers, one of the beet old-time pugil
ists in England, did all his training for his
fights by walking. Take a long breath and
walk gently as far ss yon can before ex
haling. Do this again snd a rain, and thus
Improve your wind, broaden your chest
and, beet of all, provide yetaoelf with oxy
gen te keep the vital fires going.
In summer, by all means swim. It is
Ptobably ths beet all-around exercise there
la. It is good for legs, arms, chest, lungs
and heart; and the ocean, onoe you get to
it, la free. If you csn go where you can
plunge In in the "buff" Just so much say
M per oent. at the least the better.
By all means play golf. It Is the best
game there is. It hss but ens rival, snd
that is court tennis; 'but it beats court ten
nis In one essential particular, you can
play It out of doors. Tou csn ptsy golf
alone; you can play it by an easy method
of hsr dlcapping, with a poor player or a
good player. Your real antagonist Is s
gutta-percha ball, which at times is pos
sessed of seven devils, snd you pot only
get s long walk, snd exercise for your arms
and shoulders, snd capital training for your
eyes, but you get a schooling In self-control
which no other substitute, domestic pr
otherwise, can provide. I have been a
fourth-rate golf player now for ten years,
and yet I never play a round of the game
without being stimulated to hope that I
may play better. It 1 like the mirage In
the desert No mas sver plsyed his beet
game. Just ss so msn ever lived hie best life,
snd we play on snd live on. always In the
hope that some day we may play or llvs our
dream. Now that there sre so many golf
courses, some of them public courses, any
man, even of moderate Income, may play
golf. Price Collier In Outing.

WOMAN IN CLUB AND CHARITY
Aside from the regular business and pro
grams, the St. Louis biennial was rich in
deed in good thoughts, expert enoee snd
clever sayings of some of the oleverest
women of the day. There were enough
side Issues well worthy of record to fill
a book twice the else of the regular bien
nial report, and that will supply anecdotes.
Illustrations snd references for those whe
were fortunate enough to attend that meet
ing until the next biennial. Among these
was Mrs. Sarah Piatt Decker's recital of
some of the amusing and often exaaperat-'
lng mleoonceptlons of the women rotors
held by persons outside the four suffrags
states One editor telegraphed Mrs. Decker:
"Wire la ten wards how many women
voted at last election snd what ticket they
voted." Another made telegraphic Inquiry
concerning the age of the women voters;
whether they had any children or not and
If they were educated. Do they attend
churohT "What have the grandmothers,
wives, school teachers, etc, done with the
suffrage T" ars some cf the other questions
ssked by wire, by letter and by tnagaslne,
writers, both, men and women, representa
tives of every clime snd every nation, whe
visit the suffrage states te ses what voting
women look like. s
Oonoernlng the more practical aspect of
the enfranchisement of women, Mrs.
Decker quoted Carroll D. Wright, United
States commissioner of lsbor, that ths lew
wage rate among women workers would ex
ist as long as women were not direct po
litical factors "Women are in the In
dustrial world," she said, "net ' because
they ohooee to be but because they must
be. No one believes that women tell In
sweatshops snd factories making wrap
pers st ts cents a dozen for the pleasure
of It or to buy finery with the money so
earned. The ballot will help working
women most and help them quicker than
any other means."
The local Women's Christian Temperance
union will hold s special meeting Wednes
day afternoon of next week which Is to be
devoted to preas work. Ths value of ths
press work of organised women Is being
more and more realised and the "press
session" In most of the larger olubs snd
societies has corns to be not only an an
nual, but s aeml-anniyil, occasion. Though
the program for the state Women's Chris
tian Temperance union meeting Is not yet
completed, there Is some talk of Inaugu
rating a press session ss a part of its pro
gram. Ths Women's Christian Tempera noe
union of Douglas oounty will hold Its an
nual convention st South Omaha, June 28
and 24. The South Omaha unlou will act
as hoe teas. Arrangements for the enter
tainment of the meeting are not yet com
pleted, but one of the larger halls or
churches will be secured for the sessions.
Aside from the South Omaha union, which
is the largest, the Douglas county organi
sation lncludee unions st Omaha, Valley,
Elk City and Waterloo, Mrs. Elisabeth
Covall of Omaha being oounty president.
The meeting was beld In Omaha last year
and wee largely attended, but It Is thought
that this year's convention will surpass In
Interest and attendance any that has yet
been hfid owing to the Increase In mem

ENGLISH AND IRISH BULLS

There is no more prolino source of Inter
esting matter In a dull season than the
storehouse of mixed metaphors and Irish
bulls that Is te be found In the memories
of Englishmen who are familiar with ths
annals of Parliament. From time to time
samples of. these appear In the English
Journals, snd ths supply is well-nigh Inex
haustible. For several weeks letters have
been published in the Spectator giving
choice specimens, snd ths latest number at
hand has some of the best sf ths lot One
of them Is this: "A loan to India Is a mere
flea bite in the ocean of expense." Equally
good Is this: "This bill effects such a
change that the last lesp In ths dark wss a
mere flea bite." ,
Next te flea bites, ths elements seem to
be the fsvoritee with honorable members in
search of graphlo expression. One of them
declared that "the floodgates of Irrellgion
snd intemperance are stalking srm in arm
throughout ths land," snd another that
"these accidents depend upon the most ca
pricious circumstances, upon ths winds snd
waves' of Providence." ,k. few others sre
no less striking: "In every line of this bill
they have hatched a chicken which will
come home te roost." "Shunt a question by
! a side wind." "I cannot indorse the phan
, torn that the honorable member hss
evoked." Marriage with a deceased wife's
, sister: "The man who marries does it with
his eyes open, snd ths child as soon ss it Is
born is swsrs of Its legal position."
On the whole there ts none superior to

Atteadaaoo at St. Less Fair.
An Indignant subscriber, probablv more
er less Interested In some one of the nu
merous guessing contests depending on the
matter, writoe te The Bee demanding that
It publish each day the QaiiV attendance
st the Bt Louis exposition. If the afore
said subscriber had read Ths Bee as cure
fully as he claims, ne would have real
a lengthy dispatch from St. Iuis some
weeke ego to the effect that the exposi
tion management would net give out for
dally publication the flguree on attendance,
but would furnish them to the press on
Sunday evening each we k. Eaoh week
since Ths Bee has published on Monday
the figures on the attendance at the ivouln
lana Purchase exposition. This Is as much
as any newspaper can do, for the Hgurue
are not furnlshud, even to the bt Louis
papere for daily publication.
