Panama Women Have Many More .

Special Privileges to Enjoy Now

Chicago. Oct. . There is a woman stopping at the Blackstone Just now e to whom is due the credit for having done more to help in the digging of the Panam canal than any other member of her own sex and most of the other. Her name Is Miss Helen Varick Boswell, she comes from New Yohk and abe Is the chairman of the industrial and social conditions department of the general federation of women's clubs. Miss Boswell is the woman sent by Roosevelt to Panama about three years ago with a roving commission to set to rights the women of the canal cone. Something was wrong and Mr. Roosevelt, who was then President Roosevelt, and President Taft, who was then secretary of war. were nearing their wits' ends. Something Was Wrong. The government had built pretty little white and green cottages with screened! n galleries and they had fitted them throughout with the latest style In mission furniture. The men at the zone were putting aside more money than they had been able . to save in years in the states and from a man's point of view there was jio apparent reason why the American women who had followed their husbands into the zone should not be content. But they were not and .the spirit of unrest grew until It took on proportions of 'sufficient size to affect the work on the canal. ... ( What ' Miss Boswell found was a row -of r seventeen towns of varying sizes stretched along' the canal from Cristobal on the Atlantic to Ancon on the Pacific. She found 1,200 women far from familiar haunts and all the things that had. meant life set down In an existence where the line of so? cjal exclusion was more tightly drawn than In the flourishing cities of the states. The- seed of discontent-was producing a , tangle of unbapplness which was clogging life the length of GRAMMAR USELESS k - Danish Linguist Says Study Is Fascinating Evil, Rival -of Novels. ' HAS NO MATERIAL VALUE Chicago, Oct 6.-Grammar is a fas cinating evil. The normal schoolboy slips It up out of i his desk 'behind the covert of his geography during study hours that he may pore covertly over its thrilling declensions, hairbreadth conjugations and sensational parsings. Beware Diamond Dick's rival ' Do not blame the schoolboy If he takes to spectacles as the result of a passion for grammatical science. Professor Otto Jespersen. of the University of Copenhagen, the famous exploiter ot Ido, the new universal language, exposes the lure pt the grammatic melodrama In the School . Review, Issued yesterday from the University of Chicago press. Professor Jespersen has found that grammar Is useless, thereby placing the study alongside of marbles and grammar school football as a profit able activity for youths. But he be lieves the children like it and ad vises teachers to resign themselves to It, despite Its uselessness. Bad gram mar Is better than no grammar at all "A great many -people seem to think that the study of grammar is a dry subject, indeed, but that It Is extremely useful, assisting the pupils in writ ing and In speaking the language in question." he says. "Now, I hold ex actly the opposite view. I think that the study of grammar is really more or less useless, but is extremely fas clnatlng. ' "I don't think the study of grammar. at least In the way In which grammar has been studied Heretofore, has been Of material assistance to any one of the masters of English prose or poetry." - PLATINIZED GLASS. IV Produces an Odd and a Tricky Kind ef Mirror. riatlnlzed glass consists of a piece of flass coated with an exceedingly thin layer of a liquid charged with platinum and then raised to a red heat The platinum becomes united to the glass In such a way as to form an odd kind of mirror. The glass bas not really lost its transparency, and yet if one places it against a wall and looks at It he sees his Image as in an ordinary looking glass. Bat when light is allowed to come through the glass from the other aide, at when It Is placed in a window. It appears perfectly transparent like ordinary glass. By constructing a window of platinised glass one could stand close behind the panes In an unllluminsted room and behold clearly everything going on ontslde. while passersby looking at the window would behold only a fine mirror or set of mirrors In which their own figures would be reflected while the person Inside remained Invisible. la Prance various tricks have been contrived with the aid of this glass, la one a person seeing what appears to be sn ordinary mirror approaches It to gsse upon himself. A sodden change In the mechanism sends light through the glass from the back, whereupon It Instantly becomes transparent and the startled spectator finds himself confronted by noma grotesque Agere that had been hidden behind the glass.--narper's Weekly.

the ditch. Miss Boswell visited all of the seventeen towns. Finds Newport Outdistanced. "For two months I did nothing but ride up and down the canal until I

felt eligible to the brotherhood of dig gers," she said. "Believe me, the men at the canal were just as anxious as the heads of the government for the untangling of the tangle. - "I had not visited the district long until I realized that the lack of social fellowship and something to do was the seed. Gradually the lines of excluslveness had been drawn so tightly that Newport Itself had been outdistanced. . There were the ladies of the army, and the ladles of the judiciary, and the other women, all far from home, set in an Ideal socialistic community you see the government owns all the houses but hedged about with the conventions of the centuries. ,' Ice Waa Broken at Last. "With the help of the head officers I held receptions in the men's club houses along the route. It was something new and every, woman responded to the invitation. The Ice and it was verily had been broken and in less than two months the ladies of the army and the ladies of the judiciary and other ladles were working with might and main to better the school conditions and otherwise make canal, lite worth living. They had found themselves and each other. "When I left at the , end ". of two months there were eight women's clubs with departments in working order. "In a short tlmtf the clubwomen had founded libraries in all of the towns and traveling art galleries were maknig their way around the shools. Re cently, the educational department of the Cristobal women's club raised $300' and founded a full fledged playground for the native children a ground filled with all the modern con. venlences of a city's place of public play. t Within, a short time another will be founded at Ancon." ORIGIN OF LLOYD'S. Humble Beginning of Europe's Greet ' ' Maritime Agency. TWO centuries ago a man who bad a cargo to send ' to the Mediterranean contrived to get rid of some of the risk: by inducing a friend to take an interest with him. - It waa necessary to write out a statement of contract to which the guarantors subscribed. This was .the" first underwriting. These two men happened to be frequenters of Lloyd's coffee bouse In London, which waa a favorite place for the merchants of the , town to gather to discuss business or to gossip. Others Immediately saw the advantage of the scheme which their col-, leagues had devised, and on the next voyage the risk was parceled out among a larger number of the patrons of the coffee house. Out of this small beginning has grown the great European maritime agency, still bearing the name of the humble coffee bouse proprietor, and which not only writes risks on vessels, but rates them and publishes their arrivals at every port the world over, no matter how small or bow remotely situated. "Annals of the American Academy." Where Abraham Fished. Mrs. Victoria de Bunsen in "The Soul of a Turk" relates a legend concerning Abraham which will be .new to many readers. She learned of ft while at Edessa, the traditional Ur of the Cbaldees. She was shown there f a large oblong tank of water so filled with fishes resting just below the surface of the water that their fins and backs seemed almost wedged together so as to form "an almost solid layer jof silvery life." v "The guardian of the mosque throws some meal into the water. and the fish jump high to catch It. a great living pyramid, of which those which jump the highest form the pinnacle.. The tradition Is that Abraham as a child fished In the tank; hence the fish were considered sacred. No single one has been caught or .killed to this day. Indeed, death would overtake the man who transgressed this law." A Laberite. - "She's all my fancy painted her."

LONGER LIFE IN INDIANA By DR. J. N. HURTY

In 1895 the average, duration of life, as calculated from the vital statistics of the state board of health jras 39.4 years. ', In 1909 the duration as 42.2 years, an increase of 2.8 ears.' Tnis means lire in Indiana is lengthening at the rate of 18.48 years per century. - In Massachusetts the rate is about fourteen years per century; In Prussia, the land of science and discovery. Ah rate is 27 years per century; and in India it is stationary, the average life there being 25 years. Metchnikoff and other investigators believe there are good reasons for believing we should live one hun dred years in full possession of our faculties and usefulness. At that age we would probably lose our instinct of life and acquire the instinct of death. In other words having reached through natural living the natural 'duration of life, (we now live In many ways unnaturally) we would not wish to live longer. We then would approach the grave Like one who wraps the drapery of his couch About him, and lies down to pleasant dreams. Accepting one hundred years as the normal length of life, we will at the present rate of increase in Indiana begin to live -a century in the year 2223 or In 313 years. If this is to happen we must begin right away to live more rationally, for, further study shows that this Increased duration of life is due, not to adults living longer A WIFE SUBSTITUTE Has Been Invented by a Corporal in a United States Infantry Regiment. IS USEFUL TO SOLDIERS y (American News Service.) San Antonio, Tex., Oct. 6. A substitute for a housewife, which is said to be in every way an improvement, is the latest invention patented by Corporal Daniel Newman of the 22nd Infantry now stationed at Fort Sam Houston In this city. ' It Is not generally known, but every soldier has a housewife is . required to have one by law. It is a cloth package containing needles, thread and a pair of small scissors. Corporal Newman's housewife, which a company is organizing in San Antonio rto manufacture, consists of a Bmall meteal box which not only carries the needles, thread and scissors, but the toothbrush, the comb, soap and other small necessities that the soldier likes. It is a very ingenious device with Its numerous compartments and provides for the sanitary protection of the soldier's toothbrush that generally he is In the habit of carrying in his hat. Furthermore, since the article can be manufactured more cheaply than the old fashioned housewife It will probably prove a saving and be very acceptable. In as much as it is made of metal, is flat and covers only about 6x3 inches in space it can be LOGICAL REMEDY FOR ECZEMA . Many different remedies have been tried for Eczema and other skin diseases. But it is now known that the only possible cure is a mild, soothing liquid made up of Oil of Wlntergreen, Thymol, Glycerine and other ingredients so carefully compounded that each Ingredient has its proper effect. This compound is now made up in the D. D. D. Prescription. Ten years of success and thousands of cures show the merit of this wonderful compound, but the most convincing proof Is a trial of the remedy by any eczema sufferer. D. D.

but to the fact that children are bet ter taken care of In infancy and that a greater number live to adult agt than formerly. This prolonging of in fant and child life, of course, in creases. the average duration. Wher it comes to the life expectancy of peo pie 40 years old and over it is found that the average is decreasing. Ir the last thirty years the mortality ot people 40 to 50 years of age has in creased 8 per cent; the mortality ot people in the age period 50 to 60 has increased 17.6 per cent; In the agt period. 60 to 70 the increase has beet 18 per cent; in the age period 70 to 8C the increase is 17 per cent.. This means that the adults of 30 years ago either had more practical good sense in the matter of right living thannhe

adults of the present day, or their environment forced them to live more sensibly. Parents at the present, time are more and more requiring their children to live hygienically with respect to air, food, sleep and amusements, but make, no ' such prescription for themselves. Unless they do, the vitality of the race will . continue to decrease and finally, instead of living to the age of one hundred years, we will have no mature experienced men for counsel and f only young men for war. So it appears that race suicide is more likely to proceed from the rapid pace- and artificial methods of living of adults over thirty, than from the refusal of the people to replenish the earth. carried In the blouse. No doubt in future historians will record how a gal lant soldier was saved by the bullets striking his housewife. Stage Snow In Spring. . In a play caUed "1312." In which Na poleon's crossing of a frozen river Is shown with snow falling, the Inst act shows an old soldier's return home. It is springtime, there are roses climb ing up the cottage walls, the fruit trees are in bloom, and the old hero sits in a chair in a cozy room with all the win dows open. But, much to the spectators' amusement, snow continued to fall not only outside the room, but In side it The actor who played the old soldier noticed the audience's amuse ment, and to account for the snow he gagged "Pay no attention to the snow." he said to bis stage wife.
