BOONVILLE, Mo., Dec. 4.——-The Government concentrated every Federal prohibition agent. in Mis- sourl here early today for a series of liquor raids under search war- rants, which within the first few hours yielded 13 prisoners. Twenty-one agents, directed by Acting Prohibition Administrator W. Frank Cunningham of 8t. Louls, made the raids. Their activity was directed against private homes in and near Boonville, 19 search war- rants having been obtained for houses.known.to shelter petty boot- leggers and liquor stocks. Of the first prisoners taken nine were Negroes and three were white men, the thirteenth prisoner being the Mulatto wife of a Negro pris- oner. Almost without exception the houses raided were found to contain small stocks of liquor or bootlegging apparatus. Story of Protection. Two Negroes, James Jenkins and his son, Harry, told a story of hav- ing had “protection” under an ar- rangement by which they pur- chased all their ‘“‘wholesale sup- plies’’ from a certain Negro boot- legger. They made sworn asatate- ments as to the circumstances and the raiders began questioning oth- er prisoners along this line. The search warrants started today’s cleanup were which the Boonville made by a prchibition agent last week. The agent pur- chased liquor or found other evi- dence at each of the homes raided today. Citizens Had Complained. Many complaints had reached the Prohibition Administrator’s of- fice recently from reputable Boon- ville citizens, who charged that the | leggers’ ring which operated in brazen fashion. Acting Adminis- | trator Cunnimgham expects to con-. fer with Sheriff Percy McMahan and his deputies about conditions before the raiders leave town.

St. Louis last evening suffered one of its periodic visitations of choking, acrid smoke, which fil- tered ‘through crannes of al! sorts and left dirty smudges everywhere. Lack of wind, the usual cause of the smoke pall, was to blame, per- mitting the smoke product of thou- sands of heating and industrial soft coal fires to remain low in the air. The breeze stopped late in the afternoon, as workers were going home, and by about 6:30 p. m. the smoke was at its thickest, extend- ing even into-some suburbs.

LONDON, Dec. 4.—When the Duke of Marlborough asked Con- suelo Vanderbilt in 1895 to become his bride, she did not reply, but broke into tears; she was surprised the next day to see in the news- papers the announcement of her engagement to the Duke. This statement was part of the evidence leading to the recent Ro- | man Catholic annulment of the marriage, according to a dispatch from the Rome correspondent of the Daily News, who quotes the testimony as summarized fully in the Acta Apostolicae Sedis, the of- ficial record of Vatican transac- tions.

A furnace can be operated not to smoke, In the obnoxious manner $0 per cent of them do. The use of extra air supplied by a small low pressure volume blower would improve combustion in the fire-box. A coal can be used, which is free from fines, which tend to clog the coal bed, and make “smoke.” When so many requirements and stipulations are put on other forms of apparati which the public uses in of- fice buildings, apartments, dwellings. etc. eto., why isn't it possible, practical and essential to place specifications and stipulations on the grade of fuel used, and for the city fuel commission to see that such requirements are fulfilled?

The cultural implications bring a pain to our rhetorical heart. The English of the charge is ter- rible. A man cannot be suspected of any- thing, using the present participle of the verb. If the police officer saw him drink, the grammatical form is, “Seen drinking what is suspected to have been beer.” If the officer did not see him drink, the form is, “‘Suspected of having drunk what is suspected to have been beer.” ‘Suspected of drinking beer!” Ye gods!

Be atill, dear men, and cease repining! o s * Woman may cut off her hair, wear your trousers, pinch your and steal your job—but you will always have the WHIP-HAND over her! In the last analysis, you will al- way be able to dictate terms to her. You will always run the world: f “a ee cigarettes, share your vote, Because woman cannot live without Love! And, YOU, Why? alas, are all that she has to lore! - . - Woman MUST have love—even though she seems to be going the wrong way to get it! La e . 3 Love is woman's life-study, for which she ‘preps’ at sixteen, end from which she graduates at twenty-two, with a post-graduate course lasting as long ae life, itself! a . . With woman, Love fs a career in itself—-and she allows NOTH- ING seriously to interfere with it. She may go in for music, art, law, business, or medicine; but they are all side-lines—just little running accompaniments to the real motif of her life. . - She may resort to an artistic or professional career while she is waiting for the fruition of her Life’s Dream, or she may turn to it in despair after that dream has been shattered. But it will always remain an AVOCATION—something to employ her mind and energies while she is “marking time,” and searching the horizon for the coming of the Great Experience. ; She may make a bigger success-of ber art or her profession than she does of love; it may amuse and even exhilarate her, to see how far she the Right Man! | e - To a man, on the other hand, Love is merely a.diverting avoca-| tion to be enjoyed in his leisure hours, after the stress of business or sport, and not to interfere with more serious things. | . * ~ Like most avocations, it occupies only his evenings and his idle) hours. It is a form of relaxation—a diversion when he is successful, and a resource when he is discouraged or disheartened. Love may be to him an inspiration; it may even be one of his HOBBIES—but it ts never a goal! | Love, with woman, is an abiding thought. NOTHING can| crowd it out! With man, it is just a transient mood, dispelled by the cemands of things more vital to him, such as signing a big contract, making a good score or even consuming a perfect beefsteak. - . + Why, then, all this flutter and anxiety, dear men, over women’s latest pose, her “new mannishness?” You know and SHE knows that | ghe can’t beat BIOLOGY with a hair-cut! And just so long as Love is a necessity to woman and a mere luxury to man, Adam can keep Eve jumping through hoops and feed-| ing him applesauce! | % 7 » Alas, in the Game of Life, the cards are all stacked against her -~—by Old Dame Nature!

Gertrude writes for the magazines and she knows authors and artists. She’s met two or three moving picture actresses. Oh, Gertrude leads a wonderful life, and Clytie doesn’t see why she can’t do the same kind of thing. Dangling earrings and slave bracelets and studio and artists and singers—oh, thrilling. So Clytie has farmed out little Jim to a boy’s school and she’s said good-by to big Jim and she’s gone to college to study literature. She’s going to come out and lead the “literary life.”’ The joke of it all is big Jim is giving her the money to do it all. He’s puzzled and hurt and doesn’t know what to think. Well, I wonder how it will all turn out. Will big Jim live alone while Clytie is in. col- lege, or some evening when he can’t bear to think of his lonesome apartment and his lonesome din. ner, will he call up some girl he used to know when he was a bachelor and will that be the be- ginning of the tragedy? When Clytie tries to write and can’t, no matter how hard she tries, and when some “artist”? who tries to kiss ber the first time he meets her turns on Clytie and tells her just what he thinks of her because she shrinks from him; when the magazine editors refuse to see her and the moy- ing picture actresses are ‘“‘busy’”’ —will it be too late for Clytie to go back home to Jim and be a sensible mother and a and behave herself?

The Phantom was in a quandary. He could accomplish nothing with a “shadow” at his heels, and there was something maddening in the thought that he was losing time while Helen Hardwick might be in danger. He could probably elude his pursuer without much difficul- ty, but that would be a confession that he had something to hide, and might possibly result in his being picked up on a general alarm. He was safe behind the personality of Thomas Granger only so long as he did not engage in suspicious | conduct. : | An idea flashed in his mind as he caught a glimpse of the sky- iscrapers of City Hall Park. would take the bull by the horns, he decided. The safest and surest way of averting suspicion from \himself was to play his borrowed role boldly and thoroughly. He \would proceed at once to the of- fices of the Sphere and make a ju- diciously colored report of the lat- ‘est affair at the Gage house. It /was a dangerous experiment, but ‘the Phantom believed he could car- ‘ry it out. A bold play, a bit of iclever acting and the usual accom-. paniment of good luck were all that Was necessary. | He was still conscious of pursuit | as he alighted and turned in the direction of the Sphere Building. A glance at the bulletin board in the} rotunda showed him the location | of the editorial rooms, and he as- cended in the elevator. The mir- rors lining the walls of the cage threw back at him a reflection showing signs of suspense, worry and want of sleep. His face was drawn and furrowed, and the usual luster of his eyes was a trifle dimmed, but these symptoms might also be indications of thheavy drink- ing, and they enhanced his resem- blance to Granger. The building throbbed with the pulsations of presses. From above, like a continuous rattle of shrapnel, came the din and clatter “of the linotypes. Faint odors of ink and whiffs from the sterotyping and air. jaunty appearance, though inward- ly he was qualling a trifle. A sign on frosted glass told him which door to enter, and a red-headed youth presiding at a desk in an anteroom grinned broadly as he /passed through. A dozen typewrit- ‘ers jabbered noisily in the room be- ‘yond. As the Phantom walked in, ‘a spectacled, shirt-sleeved man ‘seated at a desk near the entrance ‘looked up and regarded him with \twinkling eyes. “"Lo, Granger.” was his good- humored_ greeting. “Understand ‘Old War Horse’ tied a can to you last night.” “Did he?” asked the Phantom, |guessing that the individual re- ferred to was the autocrat who had ordered Granger bounced. “It was a large night, and IL don’t remem- ber the minor details." his vision was a trifle clouded. “Where is the old fire eater? Don't ‘see him around.” | “Of course you don’t.” The spec- itacled man laughed. “Old War Horse is in bed, where he belongs. | I guess you haven't quite recovered your bearings yet, or you'd know that Slossdick is on the day shift. I see him looking this way as if he had designs on you.” The Phantom trailed the spec- tacled man’s glance to a glass-par- tioned cubby hole at the other end of the room, where a bald and sharp-nosed man sat ata desk.

Peter was no more fit- ted to sleep all winter than Johnny was to stay awake all winter. ut when Peter found that Johnny and Polly were still awake, he remem- bered a patch of sweet clover not far away that was still green, and he invited Johnny and Polly to dine with him there.

How late in the winter do | you find it Ike this, Peter?’ | “Well,” safd Peter slowly, “that depends. It all depends on how early Jack Frost comes and how hard he pinches when hs does come. I've seen the time when a!! the sweet clover disappeared befo *¢ Thanksgiving, and I’ve seen the time when I could find sweet clover almost up to Christmas.” Polly Chuck sighed. “I hope it will last as long ae that this year,” said she. “If we are going to siny awake we shall want plenty of sweet clover.” Just then Peter looked at Johnny Chuck.

Peter sat up and looked all around. He saw Sammy Jay flying | overhead, and he beckoned to Sam- my. Sammy turned and carre down. Peter whispered to him. Sammy flew up in a little tree just above Johnny and Polly Chuck. Then with all his might screamed like Redtail the Hawk. Johnny and Polly Chuck flew wide open.

Larg: even among W weddings are fewer, the socially prominent, small wed- dings taking precedence. One rea- son is that many live in family ho- tels and apartments, another that people are on the move more than formerly. There is a coziness and informal- ity about the small wedding that is a pleasant factor. Morning aud afternoon seem the popular times for the celebration. Many couples motor away after the wedding, ani they like to have time to get to some pleasant place before the din- ner hour. No more are they de- pendent upon train time and cut and dried destinations. If the wedding is at home, then a breakfast before one, or a glori- fled afternoon tea at 4:30, aro most appropriate. The breakfast should be attended only by the wedding party and near relatives and the few very intimate friends that ne dining room space will accomn.o- date. For the afternoon functior, refreshments may be served buffet fashion. mal as at either time the guesta until the signal is given when they may take their places at the given point in the room decidod upon. Hats are worn for both functions. The wedding breakfis: should not exceed three courss. The wedding cake, to be cut by the bride, is served with ice cream, mousse, or any form of this froz- en dainty: In the afternoon the_ refresh- ments may consist of a choice of two salads, with thin bread and butter sandwiches, tea, coffee, and punch, wedding cake, cut by the bride and some version of the froz- en dainty. A cup of boulilon may precede the salad [f desired. For either function the refresh- ments may be prepared at home with perhaps the exception of the ice cream. The decorations depeni upon the size of the wedding and the season. . There is a diversity of opinion about showing the gifts, but many fee] that they prefer not to show them until they do so itn their own home or apartment. The bride should acknowledge each gift with a personal note written as soon after the wedding as nossible. For very small home weddings the invi- tations are frequently written in- stead of having them engraved. Apple Soup. Take two quarts of white stock and bring to bolling point. Pare. core and slice two pounds of cook- Ing apples and add to the soup Add a small piece of ginger root. pepper, salt, a little stgar and four cloves.
