About 1844 the Philadelphia city council ‘came within two votes of passing an ordi- nance prohibiting baths altogether —hbe- ‘tween November 1 and March 15. Bath tubs were heavily taxed in those early days, even as the modern automobile. Shortly after they were {ntroduced into Virginia a state tax of $36 was imposed on each tub installed. Still, Americans of those ‘times were fore given to bathing than the old Rus- sians. We have read somewhere that Peter the Great bathed only once a year. But there were extenuating circumstances, Russia is a very cold country. “ . “St OLD AGE POVERTY: », While not a pleasant subject to dwell ‘upon, an occasional look ahead to the con- 7 @itions which may surround old age would be advisable, even for those whose cireum- ‘Stances in early life are satisfactory and whose future seems. secure, We may well be reminded that neatly 80 per cent of all old people are wholly or partially dependent upon others for sup- port. Yet many of these in early and mid: ie life were' pfosperous; some ‘éven wealthy. Who can not look about him and see acquaintances. who were once the envy of {| their neighbors, but who. through: business: reverses, accidents, illness or extravagance are now brought to feel the sting of poverty? Ustially such disasters imight ‘ave been averted by a reasonable exercise of }' -pridence and thrift. Keeping up with one’s neighbors in a false display of pros- perty is one fruitful source of old age poverty, and there are mahy others. Miich of the misery which usually actompanies old age might be avoided by looking ahead “before it is too late. PLANS FOR LONG TRIP Numerous ideas hithefto considered utterly fantastic have been advanced con- cérning the possibility of a trip to the mMooh orto Mars. but it has remained for a sociéty of French astronomers to take the idea Seriously from a scientific standpoint.
