WOMAN AND MAN. For woman Is not undeveloped man. But diverse; could we make her as the man, Sweet love were slain; his dearest bond is this. Not like to like, but like In difference. Yet, in the long years, liker must they grow The man be more of woma-, she of man; He gain in sweetness and in moral bight. Nor lose the wrestling thews that throw the world; She mental breadth, nor fall in chlldward care. Nor lose the childlike in the larger mind. Tennyson. AN IDEAL. When I see you waiting there Not a smile, not a tear, ' Not a tremor, not a fear. Calm to judge, bold to dare, With those eyes that pierce gloom the Like a silent northern doom When I see you, then ray heart Leaps to live, fails to break, Yearns to give, pleads to take, In its anguish dwells apart Touch nre with those silent eyes! Lift me into Paradise! Scribner's. HIGH SCHOOL ORCHESTRA. The Richmond High School orches tra has been reorganized this year and a number of new members taken into the organization.

The hair kept coming out rapidly and nothing I used stopped my gettins entirely bald, until I used two bot. tlea of PARISIAN SAGE. This tonic made my hair start to grow in and.

IMPORTANCE OF GUARDING A CHILD'S HEALTH

More Precautions Should School Officials and School BY ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE. Health is freedom. Various are the cults, sprung, of recent yearB, mushroom-like from human need, which have sought to inculcate this truth, or fact, and many are they who have tried, through the teaehinea of these new and anachronistic creeds, to shake off the shackles of physical disability. The simplest way, however, to have good health is to keep it. And to keep good health, in common parlance, is to begin young. In yesterday's paper, Dr. King, the county health officer, was reported as saying that every township should have a medical inspector of schools, as the county official could not, naturally, keep the daily conditions of all the schools under supervision and that medical examination of the public schools was a necessity. Notwithstanding the agitation against the common drinking cup, the roller towel and other atrocities that breed disease in an insidious manner, those objects of common use still obtain in schools as well as in other public and semi-public places where people of various ages congregate. Whether or not germs are as numerous and active as the elect would have the public think is something of a question, but no doubt many unpleasant bodily ills are elusively transferred through such mediums as a common object of public use. At the Chautauqua recently hundreds of persons were lined up to drink from the popular spring in the front of Glen Miller, old and young, well and sickly, tobacco-chewers' and the catarrh-ridden, all taking their turn. Some of them to 'be sure, had a cup or glass, but the majority depended upon the tin-cups hung near the spring, to quench their thirst. A little girl was seen to take a drink after a Negro, who had just before taken a huge chunk of tobacco from his mouth. And yet people wonder where they "catch" things. There is such a thing, to be sure, as making life one long, deadly and insane nightmare with the boilines of water and the disinfecting of everything in sight, with branding handshaking and making kissing a penitentiary, offense. But that certain precautions should be taken is a mere recognition of the advance of sanitary science.

MILLINERY

OPENING

All the Newest and Best Patterns Will Be On Display

Be Observed by the Public by the Parents of the Children.

Medical examination of school children, under the supervision of the public schools, will no doubt soon become universal, many minor ills, peculiar to children, being detected in this way when they would possibly be overlooked by careless or unobserving parents. The riotous consequences of this medical inspection in the slum districts of New York, where , the ignorant foreigners became imbued with the idea that their children were being murdered by wicked American doctors, are a matter of history, but the beneficial results attendant upon the same examinations are as well known. Children who have been regarded as stupid and mentally deficient proved to have been made dull through some slight physical defect, and, upon its removal or cure, were found bright and alert. Frequent medical examination of school children, and inspection of school buildings by disinterested sanitarians, are two of the greatest preventives of the spread of disease and no doubt will both become a part of our social system. Silly prejudice on the part of both private citizens and authorities retards measures of this sort, but an open mind with regard to the necessity of physical well being is bound to result from the agitation in all phases of society on this subject. Eternal vigilance is the price of physical perfection. It is the truth, however, that violent athletics for girls are frowned upon by many physicians and parents. This should not be compulsory but elective and great care should be exercised in its practice, for certain forms of athletics are not suited to the physical mekeup of girls in the grammar grades, and even the high school. The latter has been heartily commended for organizing pedestrian clubs among the girls for, after all, the most natural form of exercise is walking, and its results the most beneficial. This is one reason that the game of golf is an ideal one for women as well as men. It can be played with just as much activity as is to the taste of the individual. It combines walking with the pursuit of a scientific pastime. It can be played in any combination or alone. It is one of the

finest games In .the world for exercise and for stimulating interest in its practice and if more women and girls would become its devotees, the standard of health would be raised. Automobiling, in. reason, is an excellent thing, but in excess it does much to advance physical ills. Women grow fat and inactive. And when peo-

! pie acquire undue flesh and do nothing to train it down, all sorts of diseases result. -More golf and less bridge. More walking and fewer operations, should be the slogan of modern femininity. Health is The first consideration of happiness, says Schopenhauer. Happiness is negative, pain positive, says this philosopher. Schopenhauer is accounted a cynic. But he was not He merely saw the truth and put down his vision in black and white. People don't like the truth. The one thing that people will not admit but which everyone knows exists, is the vast amount of lying done every day and every day. Our whole social structure is founded on falsity. How, then, can those who have their being on this superstructure live the truth. It is impossible for any human being not to lie at some time every twenty-four hours. A statement like this is always violently resented. And no doubt resented In good part. Be cause it's the unconscious lying that's done that mounts up. We all lie and there's no use denying it. We have all read the stories of the people who have started out to tell the truth for just one day and how they ended up in social ex-communication. It is obnoxious to many people, this idea of the negativeness of happiness and the positiveness of pain. But it is true, with variations. That pain is positive is vividly illustrated by many of the greatest masterpieces of literary, the musical and the painting arts. So-called happiness dulls perception. Pain accentuates the wits. Wonderful works of art have been produced under the pressure of physical disability and maddening environment. It is said that the thoroughly healthy person is incapable of the highest mental activity. Whether or not this la true or only epigrammatic the truism of Schopenhauer remains that health is the first consideration of happiness. In this day of chaotic theatrical conditions many interesting personalities are found on the vaudeville stage and none more so has visited Richmond for a season or two than Madame Claire Dorva, appearing at the Murray this week. Madame Dorva, of French parentage,, has been in this country for a

Knapp

number of years and has appeared not only on the vaudeville stage, but aa soloist with some of the well known bands and on the concert platform. As a little girl shesang and recited In Paris and had she remained in her own country would have been a pupil in the Conservatoire. Brought by her mother to this country when young, she studied under the best masters here, evinced by her vocal presenta tions. and that she possesses the genuine artistic temperment is apparent in conversation aa well aa in her stage appearances. - Signor DeLeon. her musical confrere, is Italian by birth and talka interestingly of their theatrical expert; ences. - "It is in Canada where we receive the appreciation, says Signor DeLeon. "The American audiences are what you say more sleepy. In Canada they will not let us go but call and call us again. "It is that they think we do some thing funny," said Madame Dorva. "Not always, but often, they think we seek to amuse when 1 give my arias, and Madame gave an expressive Gallic shrug. "But," she added, throwing out her hands, "we have become hardened." Madame plays in the course of the act not only the violin but her viola, which la a beautiful instrument and of much value.

Dorothy Drew, who was In excellent voice at the time of her initial appearance this week, is Buffering from a severe attack of laryngitis, the result of a heavy cold contracted on Monday.
