NEVER IN COURT BEFORE ; \ Bat Lawyers Find Her Quick . and Voluble on the Wit- ness Stand. Mrs. Emma J. Noble, 84 years old, spry, eprightly and vastly interested in what was going on about her in court, won a verdict in her favor in Judge . Grimm's court Wednesday, in the suit of Robert Higgins of 4212 Page boule- vard,' who clatmed $3168 for meals and | services rendered her by himself and his wife, who is now dead. The jury, after a 10-minute consideration of the ' two days’ testimony, decided unanimous- ly that Higgins was not entitled to any- thing. ' Mrs. Noble is the same person who, last January, assigned to S. L. Isbell, a St. Louis lawyer, cash and securities to the amount of about $23,000, retaining ay life interest for herself. She says she has recovered a large part of the money she gave Isbell, and that, except for the episode of her dealing with him, the Higgins suit was-the only troible which her property ever brought her. Pierre A. Vogel, Higgins’ lawyer, said before the arial that he was informed that. Mrs. Taye got back $17,000. “He therefore con. dered her ‘good for’ a judgment, if he should obtain one. She is living at 2123 Mullanphy street, but her lawyers, Eugene 8S. Wilson and former Judge Moyers of East St. Louis, say she does not keep her money there.

However, he said she never made such 2 settlement, Higgins assertec. ‘Several witnesses testified they had . geen Mrs. Higgins carry provisions to Mrs. Noble and perform other service for the aged woman. _ According to Mrs. Noble's testimony, ché Biggins did not furnish her with meals’ and, consequently, she said, she does not gwe for something she did not get.

WAS HUNTED FOR HOURS Howard Goodrich Had Been ‘Watched Night and Day by Civic League Secretary. Roger N. Baldwin, secretary of the Civic League, was aroused from his bed in his apartment at the Windsor Hotel, 3739 Windsor place, at 1:30 a. m. Wednes- day by a telephone call. Over the wire came a voice which he recognized as that of his protege, Howard Goodrich, 23 years old, a neurasthenia patient, whom he had watched with anxious vig- illance for three weeks, but who had escaped from his watchfulness 15 hours before. The voice said: “T am at the Jefferson Hotel. I can’t stand it any longer. I’m going to end it all,” The telephone then was’ hung up 23* the other end of the line. Baldwin ini- mediately called up the clerk at the Jef- ferson, learned that Goodrich was thery as a guest in room 525, and then asked that help be rushed to the room at once, in a matter of life and death. Yoang Man found Unconscious. This message caused a commotion at the hotel, and a force of employes hastened to room 625. They broke down the door and found Goodrich uncon- scious on the bed. He had drunk chlo-v- form. He was sent to the city hospital and Baldwin hastened to his bedside, remaining there until 4 a. m., when tire physicians said Goodrich seemed out of danger. Goodrich, a graduate of the University of Michigan and an athjete, is the son of Eugene C. Goodrich, a wealthy furni- ture manufacturers, residing at 517 Paris avenue, Grand Rapids, Mich. His ail- ment, according to Dr. M. W. Hoge. of the Metropolitan Building, was induced by overstudy in college. Soon after graduation, the young man Was treated in a sanitarium in Michigan. On an improvement in his condition, he came’to St. Louis, two years ago, and went to live at the Wjndsor Hotel. There he. met Baldwin, another. guest, and Goodrich's history enlisted Baldwin's rsympathy and friendship. Baldwin set himself tu the task of watching over his.friend. At Baldwin's request, Goodrich took a room adjoin- ing his at the Windsor Hotel. Wach morning Baldwin took Goodrich to his office in the Board of Education Build- ing and kept him there under his eye until evening. Then they returned to the hotel together and Baldwin read and talked with him until he grew sleepy and went to bed. The purpose of this treatment was to keep Goodrich’s mind from his own affliction. As usual, Tuesday morning, the two men went to Baldwin's office. Goodrich began his customary daily occupation of telephoning to various factories and asking for work as a laborer. Bald- win, seeing him busy, left the room a few minutes. When he returned, Good- rich had disappeared. Tried to Cure Himsel At the city hospital Goodrich ‘told re- porters that, although he had studied engineering at Ann Arbor, he had also taken courses in psychology. He had attempted to cure himself, he related, by keeping his thoughts from ibis own allment, and to this end had worked as a factory laborer\in Granite City. The patient continued that when he was a child his nurse frightened him with stories about “the bogy man,” and that this might have had some perma- nent effect upon his mind.

CALLS PLAINTIFF JEALOUS Says Blake and Wife Really seh. arated in 1904; She Met Him in 1909. 7 NEW YORK, Oct. 15.—Mrs. Clarence H. Mackay, suffrage leader and wife of the head of the Postal Telegraph-Cabie Co., broke her silence today regardirg the $1,000,0w suit filed against her Catherine K. Blake for alleged aliena- tion of the affections of her husband, Dr. Joseph A. Blake, noted surgeon. Through her personal counsel, Arthur C. Wrajn, Mrs. Mackay denies all Mrs. bh Vv Blake's allegations in a formal answer p> filed in the Supreme Court and charac- terizes Mrs. Blake as one who has a “jealous disposition, an ungovernable temper,’’ and ‘“‘no affection or love ir her husband,’’ who, at one time, it t& alleged, she threatened to kill. Since 189%, Mrs. Mackay avers, Mrs. Blake has had no affection for the dou- tor. “On the contrary,’’ tinues, “‘she has sought to injure his good name by constantly spreading among his patients, friends and: relatives false and unjust rumors and accusa- tions against him regarding his intimacy with other women and his neglect of his marital obligations and has constantly declared to said persons that she, the said plaintiff, despised and hated her said husband and desired to ruin him: and that during the year 190 and repeat- ediy theregfter she, the said plaintiff, threatened to kill her said husband. “By reason of the facts alleged in the preceding ‘paragraph, the plaintiff is, and at all times mentioned in the com- plaint, has been estranged from her said husband and has utterly destroved what- ever affection or love he may have had for her.”’ Mrs. Mackay alleges further that Dr. Blake:has not lived with the plaintiff as his wife since the vear 1964, “long}, prior to the time when he first knew or had any acquaintance with the defend- ant, but, on the contrary, he has 2void- ed the plaintiff as.much as possible and by mutual consent the said plaintiff and her husband have at all times since the year 1904 lived separately and apart arm. since the autumn of the year 1910 hive maintained separate and distinct establishments.”’ Mrs. Mackay says sne did not meet Dr. Blake until 1999, long after the breach had come between him and his wife, and she prays therefore that the suit against her be dismissed. The summons and complaint tn Mrs. Blake’s suit wae made public only yesterday. It set forth that she was Iiving with and being supported by Dr. Blake until four years ago. Mrs. Mackay, she charges, ‘‘wilfully, wickedly and mali- ciously alienated his affections,” and still alienates them. Mrs. Blake’s suit for separation against the doctor is pending in the courts.

By Associated Press. LONDON, Oct. 15.+Prince Arthur. of Connaught, son of the Duke of Con- naught, Governor-General of Canada, was today married to Princess Alexan- dra Victoria,, Duchess of Fife, eldest daughter of the widowed Princess Royal Louise. The ceremony took place in the ancient chapel of St. James Palace, where both were baptised. There was room for fewer than 2300 persons in the simply decorated chapel, but not since the coronation of King George had there been such a gathering of royalties and notable personages as on this-occasion. Besides King George, the King and Queen of Norway and other royal relatives of the couple, the congregation consisted of the diplomatic corps, the British Cabinet, members of the royal household and a few dicstin- guished “atk gyort ge in Filain Attire. Aiaine | the diplomats were Ambassador Walter H. Page and Mrs. Page. The Ambassador was dressed in plain ev- ening clothes and was the only person there who wore neither a decoration nor u uniform. Among those present were Lady Dies cles, formerly Miss Helen Vivien Goul-, and Alastir Innes-Ker, formerly Mise Anne Breese. Both were accompanied by their husbands and wore their fa- ‘mous jewels. The chapel glittered with. dlamonds and pear|s, almost every Wom- an present wearing a tiara and necklace of fabulous value. The bride entered the chapel batwoen King George and his mother. She was gowned in a dainty dress of white -.ha’- meuse, embroidered with pearls and dia- monds and adorned with exquisite Brus- sels applique lace, of which the bridal ~ell also was made. Much admiration was expressed at the appearance of the five bridemaids, who were Princess Mary, daughter of the King and Queen; Princess Maud, only sister of the bride; Princess Victoria and Princess Helena of Teck and Prin- cess Mary, the little daughter of Prince and Princess Alexander of Teck. Their gowns were made otf shell pink char- taeuse and cream lace and they carried bouquets of carnationa. and lilies, the Canterbury delivered a short address in which he pointed out that while only a few had been able to be present at the ceremony, millions of Britons all ove: the world joined in rejoicing at the mar- riage of an English Prince and Princess. The first part of the honeymoon is to be spent at the residence of Waldorf Astor at Sandwich Bay on the south- east coast of England. A futile attempt to reach King George and Queen Mary was made by -@-militant } suffragette, Miss Margaret Sterling, as their majesties were on the way:to the wedding. The young woman broke through the line of police waving a petition, but she was seized and _ ar- ) rested. LEISHMAN WEDDING PLANS Ex-Ambassador’s Daughter to Marry Duke Oct. 28.

I was greatly troubled with dandruff and falling hair. I tried many advertised hair preparations and various. prescrip- tions, but they all signally failed; many . of them made my hair greasy so it was impossible to comb it or do it up prop- erly. I think that many of the things I tried were positively injurious and from my own experience I cannot too strongly caution you against using preparations son street, May 1, and robbing him of 1@ diamond stud and $30.

Lorenzo Raedel, who lives at 2817 North Twenty-third: street, has lived in St. Louis since 1867 and ts one of the city’s best known citizens. Mr.'Raedel was in the cigar business here for fifty-six years and is now retired. In speaking of Plant Juice he says: “I have suffered considerably with rheumatism and kidney trouble and as Plant Juice was so strongly re- commended by St. Louis people I thought I would try it. I have taken one bottle and the results have been so fine I will continue the treat:.nent. I have gained in weight and as feel- ing better in every way since I began taking it and consider it: the best money I have spent in a Idng time.” Rheumatism is caused by an excess of uric acid in the blood. Plant Juice strengthens the weak kidneys and makes it possible for them to carry off this poisonous acid. When you eliminate the cause-the disease will disappear. Those who suffer from pains across the back or in the joints, fee] drowsy and tired, with oo energy or vitality, have pale pasty looking skin, puffy eyes or any other symptoms of weak or diseased kid- neys, will find quick and permanent relief in Plant Juice. It tones up and strengthens the entire nervous sys- tem and invigorates and vitalizes the. whole body. If you suffer from any ailment of the stomach, liver or kid- neys, get a bottle from the Plant Juice man at Wolff-Wilson Drug Co. store and if it does not help you he wiil give your money back. —ADV. RESINOL HEALS ITCHING ECZEMA Completely Cured When Three Years of Other Treatments Did No Gocd “Four years ago I developed a bad case of eczema on my face which was not only bad to look at. but extremely antioying by reason of burning and itch- ing. It was in very. large sores, looked almost like boils. “As soon as the disease healed a trifle in one place—always leaving the skin dark—it appeared in another, getting worse as it advanced. After three years’ treatment ity grew no better, until I found Resinol. I used both Resinol Soap and Resino] Ointment, and after two months not a trace of the eczema remained.”’ (Signed) Miss Beulah Amanda Elliott. Greenwood, Del., June 14, .1913. Resinol Soap and Resinol Ointment are also speedily effective in even the stubbornest cases of pimples, black- heads, dandruff, sores and piles.

SULZER’S JUDGES ir DEADLOCKED veRT CHANGING CHARGES Question of Amending Article IV Debated for Hours; Vote to Be Taken Today. — By Ae asee P ALBANY, N. ¥.. Oct. 1%.—The High Court ry Impeachment, which is trying Gov. Sulzer, recessed for lunch shortly before 1 o’clock today, after having been in executive session through the morn- ing apparently as far as ever from a decision on whether article 4 of the im- Peachment shall be amended or the Assembly shall be asked to provide an additional article to include the testi- mony of Duncan W. Peck and Henry L. Morgenthau. The failure of the court to reach an agreement on this question was produc- tive of many rumors. One was that a deadlock had occurred and that a vote did not appear imminent. | Vote Probable This Afternoon. Another was that the court had reached a decision to vote this after- noon as to whether the testimony in question should be sent to the Assembly as the basis for the new article. It was reported that A majority of the judges of the Court of Appeals had expressed themselves in favor of such a course On’ the ground that to amend article 4 would be unconstitutional. Many of the Senators, however, strongly opposed this action, it was said, and the question be- came the subject of bitter debate, final- ly resolving itself into passage of a mo- tion to decide the question this after- noon. It was learned that just before ad- journment came the members of the court were again admonished not to dis- close what had occurred during the ses- sion. One-Minute Sessions Held. Both houses of the Legislature held one-minute sessions today and adjourned over until tomorrow. ——_— en i, PRAY HAIR TURNS (TS NATURAL DARK COLOR AFTER APPLYING SAGE TEA When Mixed with Sulphur It Darkens So Beautifully that Nobody Can Tell; Takes Off Dandruff. Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur, properly com- pounded, brings back the natural color and luster to the hair when faded, streaked or gray; also cures dandruff, itching scalp and stops falling hair. Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make it at home, which is mussy and trou- blesome. Nowadays skilled chemists do this better than ourselves By asking at apy drug store for the ready-to-use product—called ‘“‘Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy”—you will get a large bottle for about 50 cents. Some druggists make their own, but it’s usually too sticky, so insist upon getting “Wyeth’s,”’ which can be depended upon to restore natural color and beauty to the hair and is the best remedy for dandruff, dry, feverish, itchy scalp fe to stop fall- ing hair. Folks like “Wyeth’s Sage and Sul- phur” because no one can possibly tell that you darkened your hair, as it does it so naturally and evenly, says a well-known downtown drug- gist. You dampen a sponge or soft brush and draw it through’ your hair, taking one small strand at a time. This requires but a few mo- ments, by morning the gray hair dis- appears and after another applica- tion or two i@ restored to its nat- ural color and looks even more beau- tiful and glossy than ever.—ADV. —_ — supreme In Rugs There’ s Nothing We Like Better Than Competition ‘We're ready! & great eastern mill.

Thousands injure themselves by the use of strong eathartics, salts, mineral waters, pills They have tem- porary value in some cases, it is true, but the good effect is soon lost, and the more one takes of them the less effective they become. A physic or purgative is seldom nec- essary, and much better and more permanent results can be obtained by using a scientific remedy like Dr. “=!i¢rell’s Syrup Pepsin. It does not side behind a high sounding name, Sut is what it is represented to be, a mild laxative medicine. It is so mild that thousatids of mothers give it to tiny infants, and yet it is so compound- ed, and contains such definite ingredi- ents that it will have equally good ef- fect when used by a person suffering from the worst chronic constipation. In fact, among the greatest indorsers of Hy hi Pepsin are elderly people who have suffered for years and found nothing to benefit them until they took Syrup Pepsin. It is a fact that millions of families have Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin eon- stantly in the house, homes like those of Mr. H. W. Fenstermaker, Sieg- fried, Pa. He says he has had won- derful results from the use of Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin, that, in fact, he has never found a remedy so good, and he is glad to recommend it. The MR. H. W. "FENSTERMAKER special value of this grand laxative tonic is that it is suited to the needs of every member of the family. It is pleasant-tasting, mild and non-grip- ing. Unlike harsh physics, it works gradually and in a very brief time the stomach and bowel muscles are trained to do their work naturally again, when all medicines can be dis- pensed with. You can obtain a bottle at any drug store for fifty cents or one dollar. The latter size is usually bought by fam- ilies who already know its value. Re- silts are always guaranteed or money will be refunded. Families wishing to try a free sam- ple bottle can obtain it postpaid by addressing Dr. W. B. Caldwell, 419 Washington St., Monticello, Ill.

Whéther the Mayor of St. Louis should be ornamental—elected for show pur- poses to preside at banquets and pub- lic functions—or whether he should be a real Big Stick, having extraordinary powers in administering the affairs of the city, is one of the big questions that is agitating the Board of Freeholders in the preparation of a proposed new charter, according to the declarations made to the members of the Business Men’s League at the Mercantile Club Wednesday by Samuel Rosenfeld, a member of the board. St. Louis, under its present system, tries to elect a Mayor for both orna- mental and Big Stick purposes, Rosen- thal asserted, and makes a miserable mess of the job. He said that St. Louls ought to have a Mayor of ability and ca- pacity to grasp and handle the affairs on the side. Defects in Present Charter. Rosenthal was invited to tell the mem- bers of the league of the defects in the present charter. He récalled that in 1879, three years after the present char- ter was adopted, 36 amendments were submitted to the people, this showing that disatisfaction had arisen at that early stage. The amendments were de- feated, but 13 other amendments were submitted again in 1881. He gave a list of the number of amendments submit- ted at 11 different elections. These facts were pointed out to show ‘how present charter has grown to be. Specifically, he said the charter was being criticised because of its deficien- cies in condemnation proceedings, in the operation of its plumbing department, in the Iimited powers of its health depart- ment, making it impossible for the Health Commissioner to enforce proper sanitary regulations, and in several other minor respects. Rosenfeld said that the Freeholders had heard the charter criticised because the Mayor was not permitted to name the heads of departments until after he had been in office for two years; be- cause thé Mayor's appointments had to be confirmed by the Council, and be- cause he must approve the appointees of heads of certain other departments. Want Better Assemly Salaries. Further critic: em was heard be- cause the Water Rates office was not made a part of the Water Com- missioner’s office, he said, and be- cause the members of the Municipal Assembly were paid such meager Salaries that efficient and capable men could not be induced to accept the offices. The system of legislation he said had been condemned by some because the Mayor, the Board of Public Improve- ments and the House and Council all had a hand in it, making it expensive, cumbersome and difficult of operation. These conditions, he said, diffused re- sponsibility and gave the politieal boss an easy opportunity to sustain himself. It had been argued by some, he said, that the Municipal Assembly should be stripped of administrative functions and required to attend strictly to legislative duties, and that this change in the system would give quicker results at less expense. ' Would Consolidate Departments. ers and critics, Rosenfeld said, that there should be a consolidation of many of the different departments of the city government, and that the Water De- partment, Assessor and Collector of Water Rates, Sewer Department, Light- ing Department and Street Department should form one department to be known as the Department of Public Works. The argument in favor of the consolidation, he said, was that it would produce greater efficiency, and permit the transfer of employes of one department to another. In things demanded by modern prvé. ress Rosenfeld said the Freeholders aad heard that the present charter was de- ficient in these respects: That it provides for no city architec: to guard against further architectural! building frights and burlesques, and :r- regularities in our city streets. That there is no provision for stand- ardization of supplies, or a municipal journal to print the acts of the city government, or an annual budget of ex- penditures, of an information and com- plaint department where the citizen -|}could take up his cause and have it heard effectively, or power to issue bonds upon the income and property of public utilities, or a benefited district special tax system, or a recall or public official, or the introduction of the merit system. In humanitarian provisions Rosenfeld eaid the present charter had been con- demned because unreasonable workhouse sentences could be imposed upon per- sons unable to pay police court fines: and because St. Louis has no Board of Welfare to provide relief for the city's poor. Old Charter Greatly Changed. Rosenfeld took up the present charter and pointed out that of the original Article II, dealing with elections, only 3% lines remained as written in 1876, all the rest having been changed by amendment or judicial construction. He took up each of the % different articles and showed how they had been changed, leaving the present instrument very proved by the people in 1876.

Ed Crow, who prided himself on being the homeliest man in St. Louis and who had acted as mourner at many fu- nerals and had laughed with the living and wept with the dead, was ‘“‘waked” Tuesday night at Arthur J. Donnelly’s undertaking establishment, 2039 Wash street. Crow will be buried in Calvary Cem- etery Thursday afternoon. His sisters, Mrs. Johanna Crow and Miss Kate Mc- Kinley of Decatur, Ill, have taken charge of the funeral arrangements. Though for more than 25 years Crow was closely identified with horse racing in St. Louls, the greater number of those who called to pay their last re- Spects to him were not former follow- ers of the racing game, but men with whom Crow had come in contact when he was‘active in politics as Democratic City Committeeman for the old Fif- teenth Ward, now a part of the re- districted Fifth Ward. “Never Deserted a Friend.” Delegates Monahan, Stuart and Scully were at the wake and all evening other men prominent in politics came singly and in groups to say a last kind word for @ man who, as one expressed it. “always played fair aud never deserted a friend.”’ Pete Egan recalled the hard and los- ing fight that Crow made for James J. Butler in tHe early %’s when Butler Was a candidate for nomination as State Senator. In a caucus of the City Com- mittee it had been unanimously agreed to support Butler, but in the convention the next day it was found that five of the committeemen had transferred their allegiance to John W. Drabelle, now chairman of the Election Board. Crow arose, denounced the caucus bolters in a scathing speech lasting nearly an hour. Drabelle got the nomination, but politicians at the wake Tuesday night said Butler never forgot the valiant fight made for him by Crow. He be- came’ one of Crow’s stanchest political friends. Another of the mourners, Dick Hanlon, recalled that in his younger days Crow and Andy Sheridan in partnership con- ducted a dancing academy on Broadway rear Bremen avenue. Crow advertised himself as Prof. Edward Montrose Crow. Handbilis exploiting the academy had the names of Prof. Crow and Prof. Sher- idan in large type and a picture of a handsome man in evening dress. His Picture Not on Bills. picture was a portrait of Prof, Crow were rudely shocked when they saw him, for he was no Apollo and it was his proud boast that he was the un- handsomest man in St. Louis. When he was told that he didn’t look like the pic- ture on the -handbills he laughingly would say, “O, wait until you see Prof. Sheridan. That’s his picture.”’ Sheridan is now Democratic City Committeeman for the First Ward. It was told that Crow at one time was an amateur actor of considerable prominence and that offers of a place on the professional stage had been made to him. He was fond of saying that his value as a comedian was large- ly due to the fact thet he heeded no makeup, but could get a laugh merely by showing the audience his face. Crow was a ventriloquist and a skilled imitator of animals and birds. Two stories of his use of this accomplish- ment were told by the mourners at Donnelly’s. \ Paddy Brown recalled that tn the race track days Crow had an argument with a street car conductor when re- turning home from the track. He got even with the conductor by taking a seat in the front part of the car and at intervals barking like a dog. Fooled Men Trying to Rob Him. The conductor searched the car for a hidden dog and accused several pas- sengers of violating the company’s rules by carrying a dog on the car. Crow, grinning behind his newspaper, enjoyed the conductor’s discomfiture. As he alighted from the car he turned to the conductor and gave a sharp piercing bark and the secret was out. Another story was that Crow, when cashier of the field book at the Fair Grounds track, started downtown at the end of a day’s racing carrying a valise which contained nearly $10.000 of the racetrack owners’ money. After chang- ing cars at a transfer point, Crow saw that two men were following him. He suspected they had designs on the va- lise. They took a seat directly behind Crow in the car. Presently plaintive whines seemed to come from the grip. Crow looked about apprehensively to see whether the conductor had noticed the sounds. He leaned over and ‘said sharply, “Keep still, Fido.”” There were ‘more whines. The two men left the ‘ear. at the next corner, apparently cob- vinced that a dog was in the grip.

James Lynch, who was convicted as an accomplice of Stevenson in the rob- bery of P. J. O’Meara, a saloon keeper, is serving a 10 years’ term in the peni- tentiary. Stevenson was the chauffeur of the automobile in which he and three men rode to Twenty-first and Randolph streets on the morning of Oct. 10, 1912, and robbed O’Meara of a satchel con- taining $3000. The two other men have not been captured. Epidemic in Jail Feared. The city jail is located in the old Four Courts Building, which has been de- clared insanitary. The building had been vacated except for the jail and its of- | fices. Physicians of the Board of Health fear that an epidemic. of diphtheria may | break out among the prisoners if those | under observation show symptoms of the disease. If the diphtheria spreads, Dr. Woodruff said Wednesday, he will | order all prisoners isolated and the place | will be fumigated. A new jail is being erected adjoining the Municipal Courts Building. It will have modern and sanitary equipment. Its construction was delayed two years because of a deadlock between the Municipal Assembly and the Board of Public Improvements as to whether it should have steel or concrete cells.

Etheridge, a farmer of Bosque County, has con- fessed that she murdered two of her stepchildren last June and two Oct. 2, by administering poison, according to a statement given out by H. 8S. Dillard, Prosecuting Attorney of Bosque, Tex. Jealousy because her husband showered all his affections upon his eight chil- dren was given bmy the woman as the reason for her act. Mrs. Etheridge was married to Ethe- ridge last spring. She is a daughter of the Rev. John Walker, a _ Baptist preacher of Matagorda County. Etheridge was the father of eight children by his first wife. Mrs. Ethe- ridge, in her confession, said she pois- oned the first two children with concen- trated lye and the last two with ar- senic.

Sharpe muneres Patere City A. C. and the Post-Di«patch’s Boxing Authority. EMBERS of the Future City Athletic Club were given a chance last night to see Billy Papke, known as the “Illinois Thunderbolt,” and it is quite’ probable that most of them were disappointed.

As @ re- sult, there was entirely too much clinch- ing and hitting while holding. Not only did Papke do far more than his share of this, but he used his head to butt Rowan in the face and roughed it with his shoulders and arms in a manner that was unwarranted and unnecessary. Against tactics of this sort, Rowan wad frequently obliged to draw Papke to him and hold him close unti! an oppcr- tunity was efforded to escape, either by stepping quickly away or when I managed to separate the two by persua- sion or physical effort. The latter was no easy thing to do, as both men are strong fighters, with a combined weight of something more than 300 pounds. However, many amateur referees among the spectators almost burst their lungs calling on me to separate them. Such a bout as that of last night would not be tolerated In an English ring, where the referee sits on the out- side of the ring and orders a “‘hreak” or orders the men not to clinch, under nen- alty of immediate disqualification for violation of his command. Papke Penalized. At times Papke appeared very aggres- sive and bored in, head down, but at close quarters his blows were not pun- owan was when he swung with full ngth of arm or hooked hard to the face, Most of the blows he delivered jat close quarters was after he had hooked his arm under Rowan’s or had wrapped his hand around the neck of his opponent. Punches delivered in this manner ted against him, and not In his favor.

In rough-and-tumble work Papke showed to some advantage, but as this is not contemplated by the cag it must be chalked up against Kern from George Couch ina bout that was acheduled for elght rounds at 145 pounds.

Thinking that we may not have heard it, I looked toward Time- keeper Trueman to see if it was so and turned just in time to see Kern aiming a blow at Couch. This blow just grazed the head, and I pushed Kern backward. The same thing was repeated almost im- mediately afterwards, and many of the spectators shouted “Foul.” In my opin- ion, Couch was not down at the time, and I refused to allow the claim. A moment after this Couch went down on all fours from hard swings to head and was counted out. Burke Saved a Beating. George Ortleb of St. Charles, boxing Jack Burke at 118 pounds, was too strong for his opponent, and I stopped the bout in the fourth round, when Burke seemed too weak to properly pro- tect himself and wag in great danger of being knocked out. ‘Young’ Foley and Billy Luttrel boxed an interesting exhibition in the prelimi- nary six rounds at 116 pounds. Foley outboxed his opponent and was an easy winner. This youngster shows aggres- sivenesgs and good style for a beginner and looks as if he might develop into a good one. C. B. C.

The local stars were complets ly outclassed, but the Englishmen’s vis"! probably taught a valuable lesson.

Golfers in this city and other Ameri- ean cities who have been seen on local links seem to regard the ‘‘fol-de-rol” of making practice swings before each drive and several imitation putts be- fore holing out a part of their game. Anyhow, they do this So religiously that the inexperienced spectators would be led to believe that the actual swatting of the ball was the least part of the game. The sport lay in Ye as ahead before each shot. But how different with Ray and Var- don! At trmes they seem to make putts without first gauging the distance to the cup.

Manager Rickey has repeat- edly said that he regards Stovall as a valuable asset to the club, and for that reason doesn’t propose to turn the first baseman loose without obtaining some- thing in exchange. It is known that the Kansas City Federal League owners are willing vw pay Stovall $6250 a year for three years, besides giving him a bonus, said to be between $5000 and $10,000, for signing up. The bonus for signing will be paid im- mediately, while the other money will be placed in a bank and will be obtain- able whether the league cofitinues or disbands. Stovall Will See Magnates. According to Stovall; he will motor\.o0 Kansas City, starting Thursday, pro- vided ‘the day is clear, and will confer with the men who want him to take charge of the club. ‘Tell had obtained my unconditional release, I would not have considered the Federal League job,” said Stovall, “but would have ob- tained a position with some team in the American League.’’ The Federal League may or may not *in- vade the ranks of the major leagues next season. At any rate, the club owners have the players sitting up and taking notice.

Bell telephone rates in St. Louis and East St. Louis are too low, in the opia- ion of the Public Service Commission, which, in a report submitted to the Mu- nicipal Assembly Tuesday, took its own estimate of the physical-value of the property and the company’s tigures cf the cost of operation and maintenance as the basis of its computations and conclusions. The commission made no recommenda- tions in the matter of rates for two ret- sons: That St. Louis has no longer the power to fix telephone rates, that fu 3 tion having been transferred to «00 (29 OF 400 WELSH State Public Service Commission by re- cent legislative enactment, and that the amount, if any,.of increase in races could be determined only by a thoroux’ investigation of the company methods of accounting, as well as its relatiou- ship to the parent company, the Amer- ican Telephone and Telegraph Co. The commission confined its invest!- gation wholly to an inventory and ap- Praisal of the Southwestern .Telegraph and Telephone Co.’s properties in St. Louis and Hast St. Louis*’‘and made 19 effort to determine whether its system of accounting was correct, or whetier its relationship to the parent. corpora- tion was prejudicial to the interests of the gJocal company. Signed by Hornsby and Waterworth. The report of the commission, signed by Commissioners Hornsby and Water- worth, Commissioner Allen having re- signed six months ago, was referred to .u.@ State Public Service Commission by a vote of the Municipal Assembly Tues- day night. The commission had under- taken the investigation of the Bell Tele- phone system and had the work well under way when the Legislature passed ‘the bill creating the State conrmission ers of rate regulation. The commission decided to submit to the Assembly a report of its investica- tions as far as it had pursued them, anid to include in the report the company’s own claims regarding cost 6f operation and maintenance. The commission found that the direct construction costs of the St. Louis and East St. Loule plans was $8,575,274. The company’s statement of direct construc- tion costs was $8,924,835. The secondary construction costs, which included én- gineering, insurance, taxes and interest during construction, and construction capital, was found by the commission to be $1,589,364, as against $1,687,928 claimed by the company. The commission’s grand totals were $10,164,638, $10,612,763—a difference of $468,125, about 4.4 per cent. The company’s statement of reve- nue and expenses for 1912, upon which the commission bases its as- sertion that present rates do not bring a fair return, shows aggregate earnings for St. Louis and East St. Louis of $2,402,280; aggregate oper- ating expenses, $952,967; mainte- mance expenses, $478,971; taxes, $183,808; and depreciation $697,660, making the total expenses $2,313,- 406. or 66,152 Stations in Use. The average number of stations in use during 1912 was 65,152, with an average exchange and toll revenue of $36.87 a station. The total cost of operating and maintaining a sta- tion, including taxes and deprecia- tion, was $35.51, leaving a net reve- nue of only $1.35 for each station, Neither the commission nor the company attempts\to show in sep- arate tables the value of the St. Lovis plant ani its cost of opera- tion, East St. Louis being included in all reports. (n January, 1912, the company submitted to the Municipal Assembly an expert accountant’s re- port, showing that the value of the St. Louis plant was $9,162,968.23, whicn, including incidental values, such as franchises, organization ex- and taking away from St. Louis its DOW- |}. and the company’s. MINERS ENTOMBED FOUND 10 BE ALIVE By Associated Press. CARDIFF, Wales, Oct. 15.—Rescuing parties searching for the 400 miners still entombed in the Universal Colliery, after the explosion and ftre of yesterday, got} into touch shortly after noon today with a party of 2 men shut in one of the’ galleries by a fall of coal. They signaled that another group of lo of their comrades had been closed in farther along the gallery, but that they probably were dead. Altogether about 500 of the 931 men were rescued yesterday and today’s dis- covery of more living men gave rise to hopes that the fatalities would not be so numerous as at first supposed.

EVENING, OCTOBER 15, It is an old theory of neteimniadiip en: old. las statesmanship iteelf—that the best way tg _}eure internal ‘trouble and divert attention from misgovernment et home is to make trouble abroad. Tt ts evident that Huerta is mindful of this device. In his desperate plight as an unrec- ognized and discredited provisional President he defies the United States as Dictator. No doubt he hopes by inviting war with the United States to rally the Mexican people around his standard as the defender of Mexico and to become a milt- tary dictator with full despotic powers. «— It might be wise for the Government at Wash- ington to disappoint Huerta by pursuing the policy of patience and peace a little longer. Let him rage and roar. Let him slap our wrist and cast defiance in our teeth. They count for noth- ing coming from a falling dictator of a weak, disordered nation to a powerful united nation. Of course, Huerta may make his policy ,im- possible. He may resort to bloody tactics which will compel forcible intervention. On the other jhand, he may utterly fail to convince the Mex- icans that he is anything but a desperate ad- venturer seeking his. own personal ambition and interest at any cost to his country. - President Wilson has exercised so much. pa- tience and wisdom in dealing with the Mexican situation we may confidently expect him to do the wise and right thing in this crisis.

With an attendance of 51,000 at the automobile show, which was undoubtedly the best exhibit ever given in this city, there can be no doubt of the public interest in.autos. : Everyone who attended the show did not own a car, but that everyone wanted to and probably expected to cannot be doubted. It is needless to repeat the staggering figures showing the growth of the automobile business in America. With the development of serviceable cheap cars the market is certainly extending downward. With the increase of wealth it is extending upward. The lively local interest in the latest models and devices is duplicated all over the country. The auto has not, however, wholly displaced the horse. On the contrary, there has been a revival of the horse, especially for riding purposes. There is no more healthful recreation. There is no reason why the two should not thrive tosether. The horse show will in a measure test the aurviy- ing and reviving interest in the-horse. == — - - THE 70-CENT PRISON WAGE.

The same law {is ex pected to regiment all the national bankers fo! their mutual safety, and the protection of the nation’s commerce, when panic threatens and huge readjustments have to be made quickly. - Most of the bankers have been very busy at their trade. They neglected to keep informed on what new ideals the American spirit was mentally formnuiat- ing. So now they cry out: “Can't a man do what he wants with his own property?" just as the railroad owners did when, some years ago, Uncle Sam reminded them they were not owners ab solute but only tees. When these f oing little matters, relating to the tariff-tax takers and the bankers, have been attended to, Uncle Sam’s hired men at Washing- ton (aware fo their boot heels that he is watching | with mind made up for results), will begin actual dissection of the industrial monopolies—no bunk- ‘um prosecutions this time, but the real thing, with dissolutions that dissolve, and prison terms for magnates who, being civically near-sighted, mis- take the stars on the flag for dollar marks.

In his eloquent defense of the late Judge Gantt for reversing and remanding the Warner case on account of the absence of the word “the” in the indictment, former Judge Philips. overlooked the real point. We do not question Judge Philips’ statement that the great weight of judicial au- thority supported Judge Gantt in the “the” de cision. We do not deny that “the” is an important word, nor that other decisions have been based on }its absence or misuse. The newspaper press, Which Judge Philips, with the fine scorn of the old Federal Judge for an orkans of public opinion, calls “that. false-hearted harlot,” criticised the “the” decision as typical of the system of indirection and delay which had grown up in American practice. It was a symbol of the tangled web of technicalities and processes of delay which worked injustice and hardships on litigants; especially poor litigants ta whom it was often a denial of justice. It made criminal prose- cutions a mockery. The criticism of the press and the public in cluding many able lawyers, was directed at the very precedents and practices that Judge Philips urged in defense of Judge Gantt and for which he and other exponents of tanglefoot law were: largely’ responsible. Fortunately, the force of public opinion, led by the galightened press, is rapidly accomplishing a reform of the system by which legal processes will be simplified and the work of courts directed more to the enforcing of justice than the fortifying of technicalities. i A. __— = Fortune telling is now outlawed in St. Louis, except by promoters of stock companies, Romeos pleading with Juliets, and a few others. ¢ + - INTERPRETING HUERTA A dictator should first of all be able to dictate so that people will make him out instantly. Everybody understood Louis XIV when he an- rounced “The State; It Is I.” Huerta’s dictation is a bit involved. He has a passion for words and a:penchant for long polysyllabic ones, like “inhabilitated,” that would confuse even a first-class stenographer. Still, while ‘it is a bit over our heads, we are enabled to guess what he is driving at. Reduced to easy terms, such as an umpire would use through a megaphone in taiking to the bleachers, the proclamation or article, of decree is about as follows: “Huerta will bat for the Legislature which has been ordered to the bench. “Huerta will also bat for the courts, which have been ordered out of the game. “Huerta will also pitch and catch and field and in addition he will umpire. “Everything else is unconstitutional. Huerta is the only constitutional thing in the park.” A still shorter and more effective way of put- ting it would have been “I am It.” This has the merit of Rooseveltian Vigor and punch, and indeed surpasses the declaration of Louis XIV. However, there is danger in a too bold use of a tate it. i i TUCKERS AND SLIT SKIRTS. A loosening of the bonds that formerly held women to propriety is attributed by Prof. Walter Rauschenbusch of Rochester University to the rise o; the feminist movement. Women now are actu- ally less modest than men, he says. : Another writer has discussed standards of mod-| esty as studied from women’s social conduct, par- ticularly her dress. “If we survey the pictures of our great grandmothers,” he wrote, “we chall see them clothed up to the very wrists and up to the very chins. The following age of females made larger discoveries of their complexions. ladies now seem disposed to discover themielves to us more and more, I would fain have them tell us once for all how far they intend * to go and whether they havc fet determined ‘among them- selves where to make a stop.” The man who wrote this was a newspaper work- er and a genial bachelor, Joseph Addison. It was printed more than 200 years ago and was inspired bythe fact that the ladies had discarded “tuckers” under the feminist movement of his age.

The Chief of Police was a very bad man. No more fortune telling! Very well. The city could worry along without having its fortune toid.

She seemed to have become frozen by the artificiali- ties of the world in which she had moved. And when she sang, though her voice was praised and her father pompously told of the acclamations which she had received in Europe, there was nothing that touched Lester’s heart as those simple strains had done upon the night of her departure. He dared not tell Kitty of his love now. She could not know that he had always been true to her. Her light words, ‘‘Well, Lester, I suppose you have another sweetheart,” showed him how little she remembered her words on the evening when she went away. And her talk at dinner was all of for- eign capitals and people whom she had met, the light and soulless persiflage of those who have become cosmopolitans They gain much, but they lose much more. 7 The party broke up at last: all the fuests had gone, and Lester found no excuse for remaining. He knew that unless a miracle occurred he would not see Kitty again. As a matter of fact. he had received an offer from a cor- poration to represent them in a nearby town. He had told Kitty, and she had congratulated him. At last he rose and took his hat. Kitty’s hand was cold in his. Mechan- ically she said good-by. Old Mr. Benson, yawning, shook hands with him and went upstairs. “The door was closed behind Lester. He went off sadly down the avenue. No, he could not leave her like that. Every inch of that ground had become sacred to him in the days of their court- ship. Under this tree, glimmering in the moonlight, he had first-kissed her. They had sat upon that gate together, when they were boy and girl. A rush of memories swept over him. He turne4 and hurried back. It was now or never. He must speak with her; it was his right; he would. As he approached the door he saw a figure standing in the moonlight. “Kitty!’’. he cried. She was weeping.

And now at last Paris has discovered the new beauty and sent us a sample of it in the person of Mile. Polaire, whose Arc- tic name is merely by way of alibi for the equatorial dance which she has brvuught with her. Three years ago, when Polaire made her appearance in New York, she Was billed as ‘“‘the ugliest woman in the world.’’ Her face has not changed a particle since then, but a month or s9 ago the French paper Excelsior discov- ercd that there are just two kinds of beauty in the world—the old or classic variety and a new type, the “beauty of character, composed of originality rather than harmony,” of which it declared Polaire to be the supreme exemplar. Polaire herself, when interviewed by Excelsior, admitted that, far from con- sidering herself the ugliest woman alive, ehe has neyer in her life beheld a wom- an with whom she would have been will- ing to exchange face, body or person- ality. In the office of her manager, Morris Gest, she repeated this declaration to me ard entered upon a very interesting ex- pesition of what the new beauty real-| ly is. Here is what it looks like: Polaire is small and very slender. A loose, square- ly built coat concealed her famous 14- inch waist yesterday afternoon, but when I asked what has become of it she very promptly unbuttoned the gar- ment to prove\that she is just as attea- vated as of yore. Her hair is dark brown and she wears it very flat on top and in a bobbed off mass of curls about her ears. Her eyes are very long and of a dark lowering gray—exactly the war-color of our fight- ing ships. Her nose is short and flat, an Egyptian nose, and her color is a Chinese golden—perhaps she wears what Paris has known for some time as the mandarin complexion. Her mouth is long and large. To be brief and perhaps brutal, Polaire looks astonishingly like the Sphinx and just a little bit like a carp. The length of her eyes is emphasized with the blue pencil, the size of her mouth minimized by a vivid application of carmine to tha middle section. She wore a dark blue gown with a startling waistcoat of fuzzy yellow wool embroidered in red and green and trimmed with jade buttons. Her hat was small and black and almost untrimmed. She wore cothfines, which, it should be explained to the uninitiated, are the new dancing slippers with cross lacings way up the leg. Perfectly Well Satisfied With Own Face. So much for the way the new beauty looks. Now for her ideas. She really has ideas which she expresses with great volubility. “Beauty,” Polaire explained, “is any- thing that pleases. If I please I am beautiful. I have been called the ugliest woman in the world, yet I would not ex- change my face for that of any Woman I have ever seen. Never once have I said to myself, ‘How I wish I had that face or that beautiful body.’ No, not at all, I am content to be as I am. “TJ am not conceited enough, nor pre- tentious enough to think that I am the ugliest woman in the world. That would be a very great distinction, a superior- ity as real as that of being the most beautiful woman.

Each nationality has its spe- cial type of beauty, which no other na- tionality ever fully appreciates. I have seen very beautiful women among ne- Sresses. And each type as well as each nation has its own beauty. ‘“What type do you consider most gen- erally pleasing to men?” I asked.

La femme fatale—the fatal woman is soldom beautiful. **‘Love is like lightning. It strikes. No one. knows when. No one knows why. There are those even who believe so much in the fatality of love that they hold that a hovel or a palace is all the same to it—that it owes nothing to beau- tiful or artistic surroundings.

Or does the new beauty extend to men?” I inquired wonderingly. “An attractive man,” answered Po- laire with a visible and tmmediate ac- cession of interest in her subject, “is one who is gallant (I do not mean one who is lacking in respect), who is care- ful of his person and who is intelligent. But after all, when a man ig intelligent he is everything else. Intelligence, in- deed, is the only beauty and the only goodness. It is only unintelligent per- sons who are small, envious, wicked.

And Lester, with a half promise of consent if her parents agreed, went into the study of Cyrus Benson. When he told him that he wanted wnarry his daughter the rich man Dlaced his hand kindly upon the boy’s snoul- “Success in life,” he said senten- tiously, “‘consists in the ability to rec- oghize conditions.

Mr. Benson understood this situation, too; only the eager, selfish mother faiied t»o - yealize anything. : _And after dinner Kitty sang for them. She sang many arias, cantatas from famous composers, rendering them with li trills and tremolos which her hers. had taught her, thereby mak- ‘dng her naturally fine, sincere voice artificial and stilted. But at the end Lester always remembered that she “Home Sweet Home.” “Au revoir, Lester,”” she’ whispered, when the time came to say good-by. *T shall be back in two years, and you will find my heart whole and yours for the keeping.

All the old friends were there, for Benson was at bojtom a friendly man. Lester was now a rising man, and talked of as candidate for the bench. But in his neart he felt that Kitty would never be his. Her smile and glance were no less friendly, but there was no longer the cordial spontaneity of old. She seemed to have become frozen by the artificiali- ties of the world in’ which she had moved. And when she sang, though her voice was praised and her father pompously told of the acclamations which she had received in Europe, there was nothing that touched Lester’s heart as those simpie strains had done upon the night of her departure. He dared not tell Kitty of his love now. She could not know that he had always been true to her. Her light words, ‘Well, Lester, I suppose you have another sweetheart,”’ showed him how little she remembered her words on the evening when she went away. And her talk at dinner was all of for- eign capitals and people whom she had met, the light and soulless persiflage of those who have become cosmopolitans They gain much, but they lose much more. The party broke up at last: all the guests had gone, and Lester found no excuse for remaining. He knew that unless a miracle occurred he would not see Kitty again. As a matter of fact. he had received an offer from a cor- poration to represent them in a nearby town. He had told Kitty, and she had congratulated him. At last he rose and took his hat. Kitty’s hand was cold in his. Mechan- ically she said good-by. Old Mr. Benson, yawning, shook hands with him and went upstairs. “The door was closed behind Lester. He went off sadly down the avenue. No, he could not leave her like that. Every inch of that ground had become sacred to him in the days of their court- ship. Under this tree, glimmering in the moonlight, he had first-kissed her. They had sat upon that gate together, when they were boy and girl. A rush of memories swept over him. He turned and hurried back. It was now or never. He must speak with her; it was his right; he would. As he approached the door he saw a figure standing in the moonlight. “Kitty!” he cried. She was weeping. Her voice was Shaken with sobs. | He caught her in his arms and kissed her. It was the first time in three years. But she CFe% herself out of his embrace. “Kitty, I love you,” cried Lester. want you. O, Kitty, be my wife. member the old days!” “Lester,”’ she said slowly, with broken accents. “I am not worthy to be your wife. I am a fraud and a sham, and ‘f you thought me ccld it is because I have had to steel my heart against niv better nature. “Do you know that I am a failure? Yes, I, who thought myself so fine, so grand a singer, destined to become faim- ous in Europe, am nothing but a He. I never had a voice. I thought I had. My father’s money procured me the best teachers. They listened to me and sent me away. ‘She has a good ear.’ they said, ‘but she will never amount to anything.’ “My mother, who was. with me. thought this jealousy because I was i foreigner. At last we found secon‘- rate men who pretended to believe in me—for money. I studied at a college Through the lavish expenditure of ry father I obtained a trial in grand ope-a. You know what the cultivated Italian public is. I was laughed off the stage, Lester. “And the worst of it was I had to pre- tend, I shall always have to pretend that I was a success. People will ask what has become of the brilliant Miss Benson. My life has got to be a la just as my father’s is, for he is to be declared bankrupt. It is all pretenze, all sham. When I saw you and re- membered your words to me about u home I nearly died of shame. That's all, Lester, and now goodby.” But Lester only laughed as he drew her into his arms again, for he knew that love which understands all is in- vincible. (Copyright, 1913, by W. veal Re- G.

And now at last Paris has discovered the new beauty and sent us a sample of it in the person of Mile. Polaire, whose Arc- tic name is merely by way of alibi for the equatorial dance which she has brought with her. Three years ago, her appearance in New billed as ‘“‘the ugliest woman in the world.’’ Her face has not changed a particle since then, but a month or s9 ago the French paper Excelsior discov- ercd that there are just two kinds of beauty in the world—the old or classic variety and a new type, the “beauty of character, composed of originality rather than harmony,” of which it declared Polaire to be the supreme exemplar. Polaire herself, when interviewed by Excelsior, admitted that, far from con- sidering herself the ugliest woman alive, ehe has neyer in her life beheld a wom- au with whom she would have been will- ing to exchange face, body or person- ality. In the office of her manager, Morris Gest, she repeated this declaration to me and entered upon a very interesting ex- pesition of what the new beauty real-, ly is. Here is what it looks like: Polaire is small and very slender. A loose, square- ly built coat concealed her famous 14- inch waist yesterday afternoon, but when I asked what has become of it she very promptly unbuttoned the gar- ment to prove\that she is just as attena- uated as of yore. Her hair is dark brown and she wears it very flat on top and in a bobbed off mass of curls about her ears. Her eyes are very long and of a dark lowering gray—exactly the war color of our fight- ing ships. Her nose is short and flat, an Egyptian nose, and her color is a Chinese golden—perhaps she wears what Paris has known for some time as the mandarin complexion. Her mouth is long and large. To be brief and perhaps brutal, Polaire looks astonishingly like the Sphinx and just a little bit like a carp. The length of her eyes is emphasized with the blue pencil, the size of her mouth minimized by a vivid application of carmine to tha middle section. She wore a dark blue gown with a startling waistcoat of fuzzy yellow wool embroidered in red and green and trimmed with jade buttons. Her hat was small and black and almost untrimmed. She wore cothfines, which, it should be explained to the uninitiated, are the new dancing slippers with cross lacings way up the leg. Perfectly Well Satisfied With Her Own Face. So much for the way the new beauty looks. Now for her ideas. She really has ideas which she expresses with great volubility. “Beauty,” Polaire explained, “is any- thing that pleases. If I please I am beautiful. I have been called the ugliest woman in the world, yet I would not ex- change my face for that of any Woman I have ever seen. Never once have I said to myself, ‘How I wish I had that face or that beautiful body.’ No, not at all, I am content to be as I am. “I am not conceited enough, nor pre- tentious enough to think that I am the ugliest woman in the world. That would be a very great distinction, a superior- ity as real as that of being the most beautiful woman. There can be perfec- tion even among monsters, and I should like very much to be the most perfect monster. But, altel 5 0m net, They when Polaire made York, she was “Men Find Quality and Not a Physical Type the Most Attractive, but When a Woman Exploits Her Charm She Is Charming No Longer —A Man Is Attractive When He Is Gallant.” By NIXOLA GREELEY-SMITH. those I please. The most perfect crea- ture cannot please everybody. The least charming need not despair of pleasing someone. Each nationality has its spe- cial type of beauty, which no other na- tionality ever fully appreciates. I have Seen very beautiful women among ne- gresses. And each type as well as each nation has its own beauty. “What type do you consider most gen- erally pleasing to men?” I asked. Men Look for Quality, Not Physical Type. “It is a quality and not a Physical type which men find most attractive in women,” Polaire answered. ‘The qual- ity of pleasing without effort—of being charming without self-consciousness. Because when a woman calculates her ‘effect, when she studies her charm and exploits it she is charming no longer. It is finished.” “But charm is more or less a spiritual quality, isn’t it?” I interrupted. “What $25.00 IN PRIZES For the best acounts of ‘“‘How I Got My First Raise,’’ the Post-Dispatch offers $25 in prizes, consist- ing of 10 prizes, as follows: One of $10, one of $5, one of $3 and seven of $1 each.

Is it blonde or brunette, small or large, plump or thin, classic or luminously modern?” “If you mean what type do men love most, I will have to answer that love has nothing to do with beauty,” Polaire replied.. La femme fatale—the fatal woman is soldom beautiful. *‘Love is like lightning. It strikes. No one- knows when. No one knows why. There are those even who believe so much in the fatality of love that they hold that a hovel or a palace is all the same to it—that it owes nothing to beau- tiful or artistic surroundings. But I do not agree with them. t think that lights, Originally the Netherlands were rich in timber, but as enormous amounts of timber were cut and nothing was done to replace the trees removed, this wealth of the country was gradually ex- hausted. During the last 25 years, how- ever, the area of woodland in the Neth- erlands has again commenced to grow, thanks: to the initiative of De Neder- landsche Held: Maatschappy. Only 417,- fil acres were wooded in 1833, but in 1910 this area had itcreased to 642,965 acres. In France experiments with freezing ‘fish in blocks of ice for transportation are being tried, the assertion being made ‘that they can be revived by slow thaw- ing and sold alive. perfumes, flowers, beautiful gowns, music, stars, all these things are neces- sary to love and intensify its quality. But love is independent of beauty in its object. I repeat, the most beautiful woman in the world is the woman who pleases you most.” “And what is an attractive man? Or does the new beauty extend to men?” I inquired wonderingly. “An attractive man,” answered Po- laire with a visible and immediate ac- cession of interest in her subject, “is one who is gallant (J do not mean one who is lacking in respect), who fis care- ful of his person and who is intelligent. But after all, when a man is intelligent he is everything else. Intelligence, in- deed, is the only beauty and the only goodness. It is only unintelligent per- sons who are small, envious, wicked. The intelligent are the only really good people in the world.” + “Of course you use the word ‘good‘ ip its large sense?” I suggested. “You are not referring to morals. ‘‘Morals,”’ shrugged Polaire, ‘‘of course not. Some of the world’s greatest geniuses have been its most immoral eitizens. Morality depends on physical conditions. Immorality may be patho- logical. Oh, no.
