or; cook weather Weather Man Wanted to Be in, Style, So We Got North Pole Breezes. OVERCOATS IN EVIDENCE Overcoats and fur caps were in order last week. The weather man, evidently becoming peeved at the discovery of the North Pole by Dr. Cook, opened up the cold valve in this vicinity and caused poor, suffering humanity to experience a series of severe chill3 all through the week. On only two days did the mercury attain the 80-degree mark, while on Thursday it dropped down to o-S degrees and the first frost was reported. The first four days of the week were clear, while the last three were cloudy and on Friday .ro of an inch of rain fell, the only dampness recorded for the entire seven days. This week started out just like last, but warmer weather is predicted within the course of the next few days, and with the exception of the hay fever patients and coal dealers, practically everyone is hoping the promise will be fulfilled. The daily temperature for last week as recorded by meteorological observer Walter Vossler, at the water works pumping station, east of the city, is as follows: High. Low.

Religion plays a very important pert In Indian village life, but it is in the holidays and the rjtes connected with them that religion asserts Itself most conspicuously. It is then that the Brahman comes to the front. The Branmans are the priests, the "bhusurs" (lords of the earthi. Tbey take the lead in all rural life absolutely and completely. In towns their ascendency may be disputed, but in Mofussil tbey still reign supreme. In fact, in some of the more primitive and out of the way villages the Bnilinnui.t art- actually objects of worship. Nothing can go on without them, neither births, marriages, deaths nor feasts, and as a natural consequence there are many feasts. The ryot, as a rule, doeg no agricultural work on a Monday that is. be gives himself and his animals a hebdomadal rest on that day and thus unconsciously keeps up an observance of a nature similar, to the Christian Sunday and the Jewish Sabbath. Then the "Shradh." or anniversary of the father's death, is always strictly kept. On that day the son shaves all the hair off his head and face, puts on cleau white clothes, prays to the gods and gives offerings at the village shrine for the repose of his father's spirit It is for this reason chiefly that the Hindoo so passionately desires a son. If he has not one of his own be adopts one. The Divali. or feast of lanterns, falls in January. It is the Hindoo New Year and is the great business feast, as It were. All books are balanced and accounts adjusted at this time. The temples and houses are brilliantly ligbted up. and tbe women flock to the nearest water, where tbey set afloat little earthen saucers filled with oil. in which they place lighted wicks. Nag-pancbami occurs in July-August. The monsoon, or rainy season, is supposed to end with this feast, and it is therefore more extensively celebrated in the coast districts than in the inland parts. It is tbe great holiday for fishermen and seafaring folk generally. The cobra is worshiped, offerings of milk are placed in shallow dishes In spots which these reptiles are known to haunt, while thousands of cocoa nuts are thrown into the sea. India is emphatically a land of ido!s. Idolatry seems to have a fascination for the Hindoo mind. The common people of India are passionately devoted to the worship and service of idols. There are said to be 333.000.000 gods in Hindustan. The three great and specially venerated deities are Brahma. Vishnu and Siva, tbe Hindoo trimurti. or trinity. Brahma stands first, unapproachable and automatons. Only three temples In all India. I believe, are erected in his honor. He is i -rely Invoiced as the chief of the triniurti, but is not made the object of actual worship, as he is not supposed to take any interest in mundane affairs. He Is the creator, the giver of all gifts and of all blessings, and controls the destinies of , men. yet at the same time Is completely indifferent to them. Empire Review.

LIKES BASEBALL BUT IAPT FAVORS , SCOTTISH SPORT

President Thinks That Public Golf Links Should Be Established Throughout the Whole Country. SHE RECEIVED ONLY A FEW PEOPLE SUNDAY Secretary Ballinger Is Going to Beverly to End Scrap With Pinchot Before Taft Starts On Trip. Beverly, Mass., Sept 6. President Taft, it is said, believes in suffrage for women, but he does not think the time for it has arrived. His notion is that the great majority of women are not convinced they desire the right to vote. When the time comes that the women of the United States are agreed that they want the right to vote, the President hopes that they will get it. These views on the suffrage question the President confided to a caller recently. The President is said to have come out in favor of public golf links everywhere. He unhesitatingly pronounces golf the greatest outdoor game In the world, though he pays tribute in passing to baseball. In Driving Rainstorm. In a driving rainstorm the President and Captain Butt rode into town to church yesterday morning in an open automobile. Their only protection from the storm was turned-up collars, and the President's face was aglow with life and humor when the motor car rolled up to the church door. Because of the storm there were few gathered to witness his arrival. It was his last Sunday's worship at the Beverly Unitarian church for this summer. Next Sunday, the final Sunday before the departure for the West, he will attend service at the Unitarian Church in Manchester. The President's only callers Sunday were Bishop Van Buren, cf Porto Rico, and Brigadier General Clarence Edwards. The latter has just returned from a trip abroad, and is spending a few days with his mother at Manchester. He and the President discussed Philippine affairs. General Edwards being Chief of the Bureau of Insular Affairs, which includes jurisdiction over the Philippines. 'Twill Be Some Finish. Beginning with today, while the President will have his regular game of golf every morning, he will enter upon a round of engagements that practically mark the end of his vacation. Secretary Ballinger comes first, with the troublesome dispute with Chief Forester Pinchot. It is generally understood that an effort will be made to close up this matter before the President departs for the West. Advices from Washington are that the Secretary is bringing with him a trunkful of documents bearing on his case, which includes, of course, the reports that the President called for. One peculiarity of the situation which the friends of Pinchot are pointing to significantly is that while the President has demanded reports from the Interior Department on the disputed phases of this affair, he has not asked' Pinchot to explain anything, nor so far as can be learned here, has he ordered any investigation into the Chief Forester's administration of the affairs of his office. Will Look Over Horses. Prior to seeing Secretary Ballinger the President will drop in and look over the horses at the Myopia horse show. Tuesday he is to attend the field sports of the Yale Club of Boston at Brookline. This is to be one of those exclusive affairs. A solemn Yale man, who has undertaken part of the burden of arranging for the festivities, if so frivolous a word may be used to describe the function, declares that so exclusive is the affair to be made that the committee proposes even to discourage the attendance of members of the Brookline Country Club, at whose club grounds the meeting will be held. Monday the President will see Director Durand of the Census; Thursday he is to entertain the officials of the Sonder races on the Mayflower at Marble Head and present the Taft Cup to the winner of the series; Friday he will receive, at Burgess Point. Prince Kinlyoshi Kun, of Japan, a grandson of the Mikado, and on Saturday he will review the Grand Army procession In Beverly. I . . . Dlf . In Arm em a fast, bath of necessity and of cboi-e. are very general and strictly observed. The most common length of time for abstinence from food Is seren day. Throughout this lona period tbe Armenians, imbued with religions ferver. pnrtnke of no food. Only in the caw of young unmarried men is any concession allowed. The younmen on the seventh day of their fas' are allowed hy id and sncred custom to eat a little i-nkr freely mixed with alt By this means dream of pure, sparkling fresh water will be certain to visit the young man. A strange Superstition is connected with these visions. The dreamer will gee a maid en approach the stream, and she wil! carry him a jug filled to the brim with sparkling water. The dream maiden will be tbe girl whom fate tin tiecreed he shall marry. Thi strnuge superstition is found in Armenia wherever the habit of fasting Is observed, and It is believed In with the utmost faith by tbe unmarried men.

AFTER

Tanned faces, and, alas! freckles, are now displayed in abundance, sure sign that the holidays are drawing to a close, and the demand for freckle lotions and healing creams proclaims the fact that a return to the city calls for the attention to beauty points, which have been somewhat neglected during vacation, with disastrous results, as viewed by the uncompromising reflection of one's own home mir ror. The return from a holiday at the seashore or in the mountains is the crucial test of how much we have benefited from the trip. If we really have had a good rest and feel well.' we should not be averse to taking up our usual life again. It may be a little hard to concentrate one's mind, at first but there should be no lassitude or depression. If you have only a few weeks' vacation to enjoy, do not wait until the last minute to prepare to come home. If you must come hack for business, do not arrange tp get Ijome about midnight from your trip and have to start out to work after an early breakfast the next day. If you can. come home early the day before vacation ends, so that you have time to settle down, unpack and go to bed early before taking up routine work again. Do not start to the office tired, cross and discontented. People will think your vacation has not Improved your temper or your looks and you yourself will be miserable, hot and altogether disgusted. Such a return augurs badly for the benefits of a vacation, and it does not speak well to your employer for the advantage of a rest from work. You should come home with the tired lines gone from the face and your hands smooth, well kept and your general appearance redolent of life and health. Start in with new resolutions this year after vacation.

In your bedrooms at night, and sufficient ventilation in your sitting rooms by day. This is one of the greatest lessons learned from camping out in summer. The return to four walls in a dwelling teaches us how accustomed our lungs have become to deep breaths of outdoor air. It does us all good to go away from conventionalities for a few weeks, and let us resolve to take up our ordinary routine again with bright faces and resolute bearing.

tenUon for the dust ot travel should not be allowed to heat on the skta longer than is absolutely necessary. A shampoo should follow a thorough, brushing and airing of the hair, -which is probably dusty from travel. Follow the shampoo with a good hair tonic and massage, to restore the luster to the locks, which are a littlo dull, faded and brittle from sub and ocean baths. Tbe hair is usually a sufferer from summer vacation. It Is one of the drawbacks to the pleasure of a woman who values her good looks that ocean wetting and dusty drives do not improve her crowning glory. Still the mischief need not be great nor permanent, if she starts at once upon her return home to repair tho damage by a thorough course ot massage and tonic. When you arrive at your journey' end go to bed and get a good night's rest, in order to be bright and fresh your first morning at home. The housekeeper knows that her house may need repairs after bein-j closed for several months, and does not wait until her family Is ready to come into it before she engages workmen and cleaners. Not she that is. if she wishes to keep the bloom In her cheeks that she acquired during the summer. She leaves her orders in advancewhenever possible, so the house will be In order when the family arrives home. If there is no one to attend to it for her she boards for a day or two in the vicinity so that she can do her own suierintending. She does not attempt to lire In the musty, dusty house, without fire or water, where she cannot have a tub bath, which is so necessary to stave off her fatigue and vexation. Just as when you go away It takes a few days in which to grow accustomed to new conditions, so when yoa come home you will require a few days In which to settle down once more. "MAN ALONE SHALL WOO." To This Decree Gertrude Atherten Attributes Wemsn's OeeeH. I think there Is little doubt that this world old statute that the man alone shall woo has more to do with keeping down the mental and moral tone of woman, with cultivating her Ignoble talents tor deceit and Intrigue, than any of tbe other forces which she finds arrayed against her, says Gertrude Atherron In the Delineator for August It Is not tbe softening Influence of the matrimonial and maternal states that works so many miracles, but tbe abrupt removal of tbe necessity to practice a demoralizing self control, to appear sometblns that she Is not. to still much ugly anger and resentment I hare known many girls, plentifully endowed with pood looks and cbarni, to confess that tbey bare "lain awake nlgbts scheming bow to get that man." ouly in nine rases out of ten to find blm later on quite unwortb the trouble. We are all familiar wltb tbe selfishness, the slyness, the lack of real frankness. In what might be called the threshold girl anywhere between seventeen and nineteen. This Is nothing worse than tbe mating Instinct driving ber blindly until she has learned to play ber part with taste and tact. During that jeriod she gropes about In her still childish brain for those qualities that will enable ber to bold at least her own In tbe great game and she is the more befuddled because of that curious tradition that a girl must seem other than she is. Of course wltb only this old standard of feminity, and being still fluid and plastic, tbe poor things more often than not model themselves npon some favorite heroine of romance and are only knocked Into shape by those indefatigable partners, life and time. Some of our western girls, it Is true, bare a disposition to rash at a man wltb both arms outstretched one sees It constantly among tbe second class hordes traveling In Europe. And this I Infer Is tbe primitive impulse of slmost primitive tribes to get wbst tbey want In the shortest time possible. But even these girls, wben tbey are walking more thoughtfully In their twenties, wben tbey art "young ladies," erolre a far liner set of adolescence and cultivate those qualities which when persisted In long enough make them more than a match for any man.
