HE IS NOT DEAD.
I cannot say, and I will not say
That he is dead. He is just away;
With a cheery smile and a wave o£
his hand
He has wandered into an unknown
land
And left us dreaming how very fair
It needs must be, since he lingers
there;
And you—oh you;' who the wildest
yfarn
For the old-time step and the glad
return,
Think of his faring on, as dear
To the love of There, as {h® love of
Here,
Think of him still as .the same, I say.
He is not dead—he is just away.

THE MEANS FOR HEALTH AND
BEAUTY.
The beautifying and health-giving pow
er of baths has always been highly re
garded by civilized nations. With the
Greeks and later with the Romans the
1U highest degree of wealth and civiliza
tion far surpassed anything known to
modern times, but undoubtedly we have
arrived at a more Just consideration of
the possibilities for benefit from bathing.
Man is not an amphibious being and
there is no reason to suppose that he is
benefited by any lengthy immersion In
water. Swimming Is good exercise for
most people, for the reason that it ex
ercises all the muscles Including the lungs
and Is the only form of sport that can
be Indulged In during very hot weather
that does not raise the temperature of
the body unduly. Although I believe that
a good amount of time may he spent to
advantage in the dally rare of the body,
personally, I do not believe in long im
mersion In water.
The bath is primarily for cleansing pur
poses, not only to remove extraneous dirt
that has been caught on the skin, but
to remove the deposit thrown off by the
sweat and oil glands.
How ghs 6kin Act*.
The skin consists of two layers, the
true skin and the outer skin -what Is
generally referred to as the cuticle, and
In the skin are countless thousands of oil
and sweat glands that continually empty
their contents on the surface. There Is,
moreover, a continual shedding of the
skin as the old cells are replaced by the
new one forming below This dead skin,
if allowed to stay on the body, mixes
with the excretions from oil and sweat
glands, and the bacteria of decomposi
tion results. If not removed, this de
composing mass closes the pores of the
skin and produces irritation and 111 health
The entire surface of the body should
be kept clean and the bath for this pur
pose should contain soap and water warm
enough to start the action of the oil and
sweat glands so that any dirt or bac
teria may be emitUxL

Madame Ise’hell Explains
77ie Advantages of the Hot and Cold Bath
Amount of Time Spent In Bath No
Test of Cleanliness.
Some parts of the body ore more prone
to Becretions and perspiration than othern
and demand more frequent and complete
bathing. The cleanlineHS of the body does
not depend on the number of minutes a
person stays In the cleansing bath, or how
many are taken during the twenty-four
hours. If the body has been exposed to
dirt, a certain amount of friction Is neces
sary to dislodge It; It is also quite pos
sible to be clean without the doily, all
over bath, although the latter Is certainly
a great comfort and convenience.
The water for the cleansing bath should
be soft, or made so with some softening
agent. Oatmeal bags soften the water
and in a measure act as soap. They are
made by filling a two-inch square of
cheesecloth with a dessert spoon of finest
oatmeal and half a teaspoon of powdered
orris root. If a little powdered soap Is
added to this, no other soap Is necessary.
After the cleansing hath Is finished a
spray should be used or the body sponged
with clean water so as to leave no soap
on the skin. Many cases of hath itch
come from neglect of this point.
Perfumed soaps are pleasant, but they
are a luxury, for good perfume adds
enormously to the manufacturing cost of
soap. Cheap p erfum* should be avoided
by all means The body, warm and moist
from the hath, will hold perfume longer
than at any other time. Toilet water
may he rubbed into the akin or it may
be powdered with a sweet smelling pow
der.
Benefit of the Cold Bath.
The morning cold bath, whether a
plunge or taken under a shower, is In
no sense a cleansing bath, hut it has
wopderful stimulating powers. The shock
of the cold starts the heart pumping, the
skin muscles contract and the blood ves
sels empty. The brisk rub that follows
brings the blood back through the capil
laries and vessels and the skin muscles
relax. This Improves the circulation, has
a tonic effect on the nerves and In many
cases acts as a preventative agalnnt colds.
The teat of the benefit that one derives
from a cold both Is whether the after
effect Is agreeably or not. If the body
Is warm and glowing and there is a feel
ing of lightness and exhilaration, the cold
hath Is the right kind of a tonic. If, on
the other hand, there are any signs of
a chill, the temperature of the bath should
be raised.
Dryness of the Skin.
The dryneee of th» akin and the itohln*
that sometimes starts a few hours after
the hath may often he allayed by rubbing
the body after the hath with acme per
fumed oil, such as lavender oil. This

Turkish and Vapor Baths.
Borne dozen to twenty years ago hot
air and vapor baths were much esteemed
by seekers after beauty and also by wom
en who wished to reduce flesh. In both
respects these prolonged baths have
proved a disappointment although there
are situations In which they may be In
dulged In with profit. A Turkish or vapor
hath with the after rubbing and plunge
Into cold water will improve the circu
lation, open the sweat and oil glands and
often bring life and color into a torpid,
dull skin. Too frequent a use of the
prolonged hot hath, however, will produca
a dryness of the skin conduslve to pre
mature wrinkling.
Hot Bath Does Not Roduca.
The belief that the Turkish bath will
reduce flesh has proven to he a. fallacy.
Intense perspiration will relieve the body
of water, but this will he renewed as
soon as the patient begins to drink. To
kesp In good health the normal proportion
of water In the body must be maintained.
As we perspire we have a craving for
drink which we call thirst. To reduce
flesh we must rid the body of fat or
turn fat Into muscle and this can only
he done by diet or exercise.
Modern American Bathroom.
The modern American bathroom with Ita
hygienic plumbing, Its showsr, Its tubs
of different sizes, Its racks for soap and
built-in closets for powders and perfum
eries is the Ideal for comfort end sanita
tion No country Is so well supplied with
bathing facilities as Is America, and the
good result of this Is found In the health
and cleanly appearance of most of its peo
ple. Few who once experlenec the com
fort of cleanliness ever relapse into other
habits.
The use of the shower bath Is increas
ing and this Is probably the best form
of dally bathing. It discourages Indolence
In the hath, and the spray over the skin
after the body has been well soaped and
rubbed leaves It perfectly clean and free
from soap. The shower bath can he
taken at any temperature, and quick
changes from hot to cold are often most
beneficial and stimulating. A shower hath
Is Inexpensive to Install and takes up so
little room that a place can often he
made for It outside of the regular bath
room. Growing children are particularly
fond of this method of bathing ajid will
gladly welcome a shower bath set up In
or near thslr own room.
