3 at least unusual, and that is a quality ucsai iu me neart of womankind. Mrs. Nicholas Longworth also has a novelty in the line of jewels. It is a necklace of small blue enamel mosaics and sapphires mounted in gold and held by gold links. Another novel necklace is being worn by Corinne Douglas Robinson, Mrs. Longworth's cousin. It is made of carved beads of gold, strung closely together, relieved with scattered opals laid in gold. The hat shown was a black straw, faced with black and white striped silk. The brim is very wide and turn ed up. It is trimmed with light blue satin ribbon and white wings. A THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL SATURDAY EVENING, MARCH 28, 1908. V The World's Greatest Lady Rifle Shot uses and recommends N E .W B R O S EL.B R P I CI B E THE ORIGINAL REMEDY THAT KILLS THE DANDRUFF GERM The Easter Helianthus fiance will take place Thursday, April 23 at Hud son's. The first Tivoli dance after Lent will be given Tuesday, April 21 at McRae's. The 'Varsity club's spring annual will be Saturday, May 9 at McRae's. The Lambda Alpha Lamb da sorority will give their spring an nual, April 24 at McRae's. Miss Ethel Davis will entertain the Tell club Friday of next week. Mr. and Mrs. Edwin Knowles will ntertain the Bohemians tonight. Judge and Mrs. "William R. Smith have asked a few guests for dinner to night at 7 o'clock at their house, 1034 Harrison street. The women of the U. C. T. will give a reception and supper tonight in the U. C. T. hall at 8 o'clock, in honor of the new members and their wives. The juniors and seniors of the high school will have a skating party to night at the rink. A pretty design for an inexpensive suit is shown. It was constructed of light blue percale. The jumper was cut V-shape at the neck, and deep armholes, three tucks on each should er, give the desired fulness. The neck and armholes are trimmed with a band of dark blue percale. The skirt has a group of small tucks at each seam, and a band around the bottom. A white blouse worn with this dress makes a very pretty summer suit. Following the lead of Mrs. Fred erick Neilson, mother of Mrs. Regin ald Vandlerbilt, many New York women are affecting tne odd fashion of pearl earrings of sharply contrast ing colors. The idea suggests the bar baric, but that seems to be the effect sought by many women m their jewel decorations these days. One of Mrs. Neilson's pearls is black, the other white, and it is the owner's pleasure to change them from side to side every time they are worn. A front view with both pearls show ing given an almost startling impres sion. If the effect is not artistic, it is THE GOME AND SEE SIGN This sign is permanently attached to the front of the main building of the Lvdia K. Pinkh am Mp.rlir.inn Company, Lynn, Mass. "What Does This Sign Mean It means that public inspection of the Laboratory and methods of doing business is honestly desired. Itmeans that there is nothing about the bus iness which is not "open and above board." I It means that a permanent invita tion is extended to anyone to come and verify any and all statements made in the advertisements of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. Is it a purely vegetable compound made from roots anQ herbs with out drugs Come and See. Do the women of America continu ally use as much of it as we are told Come and See. Was there ever such a person a Lydia E. Pinkham, and is there any Mrs. Pinkham now to whom sick woman are asked to write Come and See. Is the vast private correspondence with sick women conducted by women only, and are the letters kept strictly confidential Come and See. Have they really got letters from over one million, one hundred thousand women correspondents Come and See. Have they proof that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has cured thousands of these women Come and See. This advertisement is only for doubters. The great army of women who know from their own personal experience that no medicine in the world equals Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound for female ills will still go on using and being ben efited by it but the poor doubting, Buffering woman must, for her own Bake.be taught confldenceJorshealso might just as well regain her health. 1 s. wing is placed on each side of the hat, and loops of ribbon are placed around the crown. A very small roll of black velvet serves as a bandeau.

The club has been studying American history dur ing the past year, and last night a patriotic program was given. The table was decorated with flags and the national colors and white and red carnations. Mrs. J. H. McBride, the president of the club, was toastmis tress, and responses were given by Mrs. D. C. Tillotson. Dr. S. J. Crum bine, Mr. E. J. Whitaker, Mr. E. A. Fredenhagen and Mr. C. H. Searle. Those in attendance were: Mr. and Mrs. E. G. Foster, Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Allison, Dr. and Mrs. S J.

The Delta Phi fraternity of Wash burn will give their annual dinner April -i. No event of the spring season is of more interest to woman than Misses Pickens' formal showing of street and dress hats which will be held next Tuesday. Everybody in Topeka knows the Pickens hats which are noted for that indescribable touch which stamps them as essentially modish. The Misses Pickens will be glad to see their pat rons all day Tuesday. The accompanying cut shows a very graceful model for an evening or car riage wrap for summer wear. The original garment was made of white rajah pongee, and was unlined, but chiffon broadcloth makes up in such a style to great advantage, and is very smart even when very plainly trim med, the band of lace or embroidery being omitted, if desired. The white pongee wrap had a little turndown rever of black velvet, outlined with inch-wide flat silver braid, and sil ver cord. The insertion about the lower part of the upper cape was of very heavy white lace. x it Will the members of the Wader's union have striped boots to go with their new striped spring suits? One of London's West End tailors asserts such a harmonious effect will be fashionable tor college boys. "Stripes are to be the thing," says the tailor. "Striped coats and striped trousers, striped ties, striped socks, striped waistcoats, and even striped boots. The fashion of striped clothing has been prevalent in feminine fashions, and with the advent of the striped frock coat, which has been an nounced, the craze has begun to 'catch on' with the stronger sex. As the modern Beau Brummel is noth ing if not thorough, the uppers of his boots will be of various shades of striped cloth to match the garments of the moment." Among the Lenten recitals, one of especial interest .will be that of Miss Maud Scheerer, a talented monologue reader; Miss Scheerer is well known' in Topeka, being a graduate of the To peka high school, and comes from Chi cago under the auspices of the Federa tion of Woman's' Clubs and Teachers' It is certainly significant that Miss Oakley, the celebrated rifle shot and theatrical star, who has travelled so extensively abroad, should choose Newbro's Herpicide as the most ef ficacious toilet remedy for the scalp. No one will doubt her opportunity to choose the best and those who have seen the natty and winsome Miss Oakley, will not doubt her power of discrimination in matters of this sort. Newbro's Herpicide is a scientific germicide and prophylactic for the hair and scalp, it destroys the germ or microbe that causes dandruff, itching scalp and falling hair, after which the hair will grow as nature intended, except in cases of incurable baldness. Extra ordinary results sometimes follow the continued use of Newbro's Herpicide. If your hair Is dull, brittle or lustreless, don't wait until it begins to fall, but save and beautify it with Newbro's Herpicide. In addition to Its wonderful medicinal qualities, New bro's Herpicide is the daintiest and most delightfully refreshing hair dressing available. The first application proves Its goodness. Try it. Herpicide contains no grease, it will not stain or dye. STOPS ITCHING OF THE SCALP INSTANTLY Two Sizes 50c and $1.00 at Dept. N., Detroit, Mich., lor Co.

PULL LEASED WIRE REPORT OF THE ASSOCIATED PRESS. The State Journal is a member of the Associated Press and receives the full day telegraph report of that (Treat news or ganization for the exclusive afternoon publication in Topeka. The news is received to The State Jour nal building over wires for this sole purpose. From the actions of the few Demo cratic state conventions which have been held there Is every indication that the revision of the tariff will be made the paramount issue In the Democratic national campaign. There is no let up in the planning of building improvements in this city. That's a fine evidence of prosperity. Surely Topeka is one place in the coun try that was not very seriously affect ed by the financial panic of a few months ago. Rumors of the pardon of John Collins seem to have been unfounded. That's strange. Collins' pardon has been ex pected any time for Governor Hoch has shown a great predilection for ex tending clemency to persons who have been convicted of murder. Kansas Is to be one' of the eleven states that will have an exhibit at the Omaha Corn exposition to be held next December. Maybe it is unbecoming to brag but we cannot help predicting that many of the prizes at this show will come to the corn growers of the Sun flower state. Although the number of people who are entitled to vote at the city elec tion who have not registered are in the thousands, it is expected that the vote polled will be larger this spring than It has been in some time. There are some interesting campaigns in several of the council districts. Bishop Fellows scoffs at the three score and ten years allotment of earth ly existence. He says people ought to be ashamed that they do -not live to be 100 or 120 years in this age. He de clares that at 80 a man should be in the prime of life. These statements will give Dr. Osier a convulsion. Admiral Thomas says that the pro posed battleship trip around the world will be accomplished easily. Everybody In the country believes him. No taskk seems too great for the wonderfully capable officers and men of the United States navy. And they have adequate ships to perform them with. Of course the banking circles in Kan' sas City, Mo., will be strengthened by the presence of William B. Ridgley as the president of the rejuvenated Na tional Bank of Commerce. But Kan sas City's gain will be the whole peo pel's loss for Mr. Ridgley has discharg ed his duties as comptroller of the cur rency during his six years' incumbency In an admirable fashion. Whatever the Republicans of Ten nessee lack in numbers they make up In vigor. This was evidenced by the battle royal which was the chief in cident of their recent state conven tion held at Nashville. Fisticuffs took the place of argument and oratory and victory perched on the banners of the physically strong. Of course such a fracas is not particularly edi fying but it is quite as decent as the exchanges of language that some pol lticians use In other localities. In the dropping of the millers' trust suit Attorney General Jackson does so In a way that practically makes It a victory for the state. The millers, who were in it, permit an injunction to be Issued against them prohibiting them from attempting in any way to control or regulate prices to producer or consumer of wheat and mill products. If they attempt any tricks like this in the fu ture it will not be necessary to begin another action against them. They can be punished for contempt of court for violating the injunction. In view of the refusal of the ways and means committee of the house of representatives to accord the American Newspaper Publishers association a hearing on the necessity of putting print paper and wood pulp on the free list, there seems to be little or no chance of legislation to this end being enacted at the present ses eion of congress. President Roosevelt's recommendation of this proposition, as well as his recommendations on other plans, seems to have absolutely no weight at all with the members of congress. He might Just as well con sign his messages to the sea. President Roosevelt's message to con gress emphasizes the fact that the time has come to prepare for a revision of the tariff. He does not suggest the creation of a tariff commission to make the necessary Investigations Incident to a rearrangement of the tariff sched ules. He puts the matter up to coik- crecs, or more particularly to the house of representatives. It places the ways and means committee and the presi dent in complete harmony on the pro position. And this committee can go ahead now and present a resolution authorizing it to sit during the recess and secure the necessary data for the revision of the tariff. A SATURDAY SERMON. Who hath iwde? Who hath sorrow? Who hath contentions? Who hath bab bling? Who hath wounds without cause? Who hath redness of eyes? Proverbs 23:29. Knowledge Is the tree of which conduct is the fruit; but the tree does not always bear! The world has known for ages, from the practical as pect, as much about the evils of in toxicating liquors as it knows today; yet only within recent years has so ciety manifested most serious dispo sition to act In accordance with its knowledge. Now the temperance question has become a leading politi cal Issue over the whole continent, with Great Britain also taking unex pectedly radical steps toward this re form. In the long ago of the land of the grape, the contemplative ones naa perceived the evils that befall the drunkard. What modern arraignment of strong drink equals that of Solo mon: "Who hath woe? Who hath sor row? wno natn contentions wno hath babbling? Who hath wounds without cause? Who hath redness of eyes? They that tarry long at the wine; they that go to seek mixed wine. Look not upon the wine when it IS red, when it giveth colour in the cup, when It moveth itself aright. A-t the last it biteth like a serpent, and stingeth like an adder." At last the world seems to have got round to the conviction that the liquor business is everybody's business; that is to say, that the saloon has held such important political, social, moral and economio relationship that prac tically every member of the com munity is concerned. "General welfare" is now seen to be a bigger issue than "Personal Lib erty." It used to be tacitly admitted that if a man wanted to ruin his own moral fiber, make paupers of his family, commit crimes against so ciety, and add to the burden of taxa tion for the upkeep of jails and alms houses and alcoholic wards in hospi tals, nobody had a right to object; this was his "personal liberty." A distinct forward step has now been taken in the widespread adoption, where prohibition is not in effect, of the principle commonly called "local option," that the ma jority of the citizens of a community are properly the arbiters of what sorts of business shall be carried on in their own neighborhood. No longer is it regarded as a characteristically free and American practice for a few men who are In the business of sell ing strong drink to he permitted to establish drinking resorts wheresoever they please, regardless of how many persons were offended or injured by this extension of a business, which, at its best, has never been considered public spirited. In a word, a new de termination seems to be abroad, to the effect that the best and not the worst shall rule. Along with this extraordinary politi cal aspect of the' present-day temper ance situation goes a new attitude toward It on the part of employers of labor. A few years ago public service corporations felt that they were doing their utmost when they required em ployes to abstain from liquor during working hours. In the speech of the men themselves it was considered "none of the company's business what a man does out of working hours." Today that standpoint has been left far behind. Railroads now commonly require that their employes shall let strong drink alone altogether. Neither off duty nor on duty is a man permit ted, to drink. Total abstinence is the imperative rule. Banks, stores and industrial establishments are advanc ing to the same ground. It now looks as if the man who means to drink mut,t make that his exclusive employment! The liquor traffic is today being out lawed, and a new generation of youth is having a chance to grow Into sober manhood, free from the seductions of the saloon. AERIAL NAVIGATION. Prof. Simon Newcomb, a scientist whose eminence has brought acknowl edgment in every European country as well as here In his own, discusses in the North American Review for March, the prospects of aerial navi gation. And after a full consideration of the subject and a careful weighing of all that can be said for and against it, he comes to the conclusion that "the era when we shall take the flyer as we now take the train belongs to dreamland." This conclusion he confines to the side of the question which concerns the public in particular, the commer cial side, leaving the possible success of the flying machine for military pur poses to be worked out, if it can be, by military men; that being a tech nical subject which, however great its national importance, does not affect the daily life of the people; though, even as to that, It Is the dirigible bal loon and not the aeroplane that he has in mind. Concerning the aeroplane, however, he notes the experiments of Graham Bell with kites,' and says somewhat encouragingly, that these show that there may be a great number of com binations, the possibilities of which have not yet been worked out, and which may lead to a better solution than even that reached by Farman. The latter is the designer of the flying machine, an aeroplane, which was able to carry him twenty feet from the ground around in a circle about a half a mile in circumference. Still, although holding that the two types of aerial vehicle are quite dis tinct, he does not mean to Imply that no combination of the principles of the two Is possible, which may result in a machine more advantageous than either. It is, of course, ImpossiDie to follow up here Dr. Newcomb's entire argument, analyses and suggestions in detail. It Is quite enough to say tnai thev make it quite clear that, unless some principle not yet acted on be applied to the flying machines or either or both types, we are still a long way from the realization of the dream of travel on and through the air. Some faces are perfect poems in that their lines are so deep. A glazier shows the earmarks of gen ius because of his infinite capacity for taking panes. When a bride is seen going daily to a cooking school it's a sure sign that she is not happily married. Love may be blind but it recovers its eyesight quickly after the fatal word has been spoken. It's absolutely necessary for a poor man to dodge his rich relatives now adays because all of them own automo biles. A Salina man has invented a device for locking wheel hubs that does away with burr and wrench. He sees a for tune in sight.

In the vicinity of Clay Center there have been three barn tires within short space of time. And the folks are beginning to think that an incen diary is at work. Writing in the Iola Record a boy with the fleet says he would give $2 5 in gold to kiss an American girl, and the Salina Journal thinks he might get a kiss by wireless for that amount.

The people of Kinsley got so tired of traveling theatrical companies which follow the kerosene circuit that they turned out in crowds to see a home talent company play "Held by the Enemy. A small boy at McPherson drank some coal oil and died in a rew hours As coal oil is frequently taken inter nally without serious results, some of the oil in the can the boy drank from will be analyzed.

Every woman is afraid she will be buried alive. It is easier to bluff a man than it Is to whip him. The devil finds all those people who throw themselves away. Always remember that you can't have your own way In anything. The great trouble with people is, they don't want what they can get. With years, one learns that most of the golden hair is to be found in the cheap novels. There are too many men In the world who tell their f wives lies about the other fellows. The tears of a woman wield a great power; in fact, they have been known to acquire about everything but popu larity. When the world applauds a man, the man who has lived next door to the hero all his life, looks wise, and says nothing. When a woman dies, and her hus band refuses to marry again, is it a compliment to his wife, or Is a sign ne nas naa enough or it- When a worldly woman goes awav from home, she brings back new steps in dancing, and learns all about the new games. When a church woman goes, she comes back loaded with schemes for church socials to raise money for the church. Almost everyone in the world needs a manager. Rich men should hire poor men for their managers, to tell them how to Invest and spend their money. Married women should pay old maids to teach them how to man age the men. In this way everyone wouia De given something to do. lhere are very few people in the world who have time-to-go sense. No guest is welcome forever. If von are in the habit of staying until everyone begins to look as if that tired feeling was getting the better of their polite ness, quit it. The sooner you go, the more you win De urged to come again. When a woman is very patient with her husband, the other women in the neignoornood call her "soft." If she is impatient with him, although he may deserve it, they pity him, and abuse her. It seems to be very hard for a woman to treat her husband in a way that is satisfactory to her umitiiuurB. -rrrl 1 JOURNAL ENTRIES j j JAYHAWKER JOTS KANSAS COMMENT HOUSEKEEPER MUST HELP. In the discussion of pure milk, one point frequently escapes the notice of tne agitators. This is that the house wife herself Is not whollv blameless In the matter of polluted milk. Re the supply ever so pure when it reaches the home, if it Is not properly cared for there, the work of the sani tary milkman Is in vain. The temperature at which milk is kept is a great factor in its freedom or non-freedom from germs. If milk Is kept in too warm a place when first received Into the home even though it. be put into a cooler place afterwards, It will curdle too soon and the milkman will get the blame for oringlng stale milk. If on the other hand milk is kept at too low a tem perature and is kept too. long. It de velops poisonous bacteria and may cause trouble to the person drink ing it Herein lies the danger of the aparently sweet milk which is sev eral days old. The bad odors found In milk quite as frequently come from a dirty re frigerator, one in which fish, high flavored butter and left-overs meet and keep company, as from the cow's naving eaten weeds. Yet the milkman gets the blame. The dishes. In which the milk is kept, when taken out of tne bottles In order that the cream may rise, are not always as clean as heart could wish. If the woman in charge is not a good housekeeper. If these dishes are not clean, the milk win sour, and still the milkman get the blame. All milk dishes should be used for that purpose only; they should be washed In luke warm water, for very hot water coagulates the milk and makes It hard to remove. They then should be washed with hot water. soap and brush and finally thoroughly dried and put Into a clean place. Then they will not hold bacteria lying in wait for the next day's milk. Let the housewife look to herself before she blames the milkman. Then having done her part, she may Justly complain if the milk is bad. Wichita Beacon. THE WHEAT CROP. Lindsborg mills have received an order for ten carloads of flour to be sent to the Philippines. Some time ago a dispatch was sent out from Washington indicating that Uncle Sam liked the Kansas wheat better than any other for milling purposes, and the contract let to the Lindsborg people is result oi this conclusion of Uncle Sam. Kansas wheat has long attracted the attention of. the world. At this time Chicago and New York papers have men in Kansas whose duty it is to send their papers reliable information con cerning Kansas coming wheat cron. And these papers would not sDend money to obtain this Information if it were not of value to their readers. And here it would not be Imnroner to say just a word about the present prospects for a bumper wheat croD. The Journal yesterday carried in its news columns a story of the condition of the wheat, based upon information gathered from the most authentic sources possible. It contained the in formation that the crop was in good condition, that -no damage was being aone Dy iessian rues or green buers, that the growth, was fast and that every indication was for a splendid crop to reward ..the farmers for their ton. Of course Kansas will raise a bum per wheat crop. The state-has formed such a habit for it that no drouth, green bug or Hessian fly will ever be able to overcome it. Just now is the disquieting time, and it will soon pass. In a short time the wheat will be prac tically beyond the danger line. Salina Journal. FROM OTHER PENS THE LAW'S LONG MEMORY. Justice delayed Is too often tustice denied or defeated. A speedy hearing and the final determination of all cases Involving offenses- against the law is the natural right of the accused and of the- state. Society ought to be protect ed against weakness in the courts, tha individual against the injustice of un proved charges affecting his character and standing. Yet, though these truths are self-evident, there is something impressive and awe-inspiring in the slow, sure processes of the law in some criminal cases. The vengeance which overtakes enemies of society who seem hedged about with wealth and power and made safe by their precautions in wrongdoing is all the more effective in its bearing upon public opinion if it comes despite many obstructions and postponements and futile efforts on the part of the offender to escape. Then the law seems like a glacier in Its weight and power and the impossi bility of warding It aside. Then it Is the embodiment of fate. Then crushes with the calm, unchanging purpose of a force outside of human passion and human frailty. That is the impression produced in such a case as that of John R. Walsh, the Chicago banker and capitalist who has been sentenced, In his old age, after a life of power and success, to serve five years in the penitentiary. He has In curred that penalty for misdeeds com mitted years ago for the most part He has been accused openly for a long time, and now the law has him seem ingly fast in Its toils. Cleveland Leader. v SOCIALIST DEFEAT IN ENGLAND. Lord Rosebery last week made him self a conspicuous figure In comment in England and In this country by his speech in the house of lords attacking Socialism and Socialist, measures be fore parliament. The next day the house of commons, Burns, the head of the Labor party standing with the Lib erals, defeated by a majority of 149 a measure known as the "Right of work Bill." requiring English cities to fur nish work when men were without It, or in default of work to support the unemployed. Public works In time of depression are wise when the works themselves are needed. This city could wisely set every public Improvement now feasible in motion and remodel its out-of-date school buildings Into the bargain. But nowhere in this country in any state legislature, much 'less at Washington, could the proposition be made, urged In narllament. in the Unemployed Workmen's bill, that It was the duty of states and cities to furnish work or tn siinnort th unemployed. The great public In this country ha no sympathy with Socialism, and no Bnnrtort for Its measures. It is opposed to monopoly infy shape and in any form. It does not pelieve In state own ership as a cure for social evils. It Is In favor of keeping all paths open for every man.

THE EVENING STORY Sally's Knight-Errant. He did smile!"

Until that week Sally had been the record holder for more than a year; it looked as though a girl on the other side of the room would wrest her lau rels from her. Sally only tossed her heM Indiffer ently. The new champion could not even see the knight from where she worked, and that to Sally was the im portant tnmg. She was an omnivorous reader nf fic tion, and the romances of the novelette and the cheaper theaters had filled her Drain. When her knight rode past the first time, and cast a gallant glance toward the window beside which she worked It seemed to her that the ro mance of the dead aees was revived again. The grimy factory building be came a castle, Miss Cady was her hard hearted jailer and the knight in the street below was her true love and rescuer. A dozen times that dav he rnrlo naEt the factory on his mettlesome horse, and each time there was the same up ward glance, the some lifting up his lance, and Sally's heart beat more rapidly as she bent over the piles of cans which were to be wrapped and stacked in the trays to eo to the pack ing room. That night the knie-hf- mils nn ot.a on through her dreams. Always the same he seemed to be. and vet ever hp bicw more glorious in Sally's dreamy c Buiierea untoia miseries, and braved perils Innumerable for her sake. He was the hero of "Ivanhoe" and taies or tne Round Table. He was of all countries and times, but always he man or tne day before, and Sally went to her work with eagerness, because she knew that presently the knight would come riding past and that he would look up and salute her wun nis lance. And .come he presently did. TTis hel met shone gleamingly in the sun, his chain armor displayed to the best ad vantage the finely muscled shoulders and set off well against th rinh r. parisoning of his steed. That thpTP Tuna a tneatricai advertisement embroider ed upon the trappings of the horse she did not care. She was looking for the silent lifting of the lance and wonder ing wrneiner tne eyes were blue or Drown beneath the heavy brows. She could shut her eyes and remem ber every detail of face and costume long after he had passed: everv detail save that golden legend. "A Knight of ia, tne Aaeipni, that gleamed against me uiiuisuii velvet oi tne saddle cloth. She recalled the heavy flowing mus tacne,- with its graceful droop, the clear color or the skin and the ruddl ness or the cheeks, and then remem bered with distaste Tim Holran's stubby, determined chin, with Its blue black tinge of clean-shaven skin. Tim was already in disgrace because he was out of a Job, and when he called that evening the chill reception he re ceived abashed even that self-confident young man. For two years they had been "keen lng company," and he had entered w-ith the air of one assured of welcome and with a light apology for the late ness of his arrival, only to be inform ed that It was a matter of indiffer ence- to Sally whether he came or re mained away. Presently he slipped out of the little parlor with the optimistic suggestion that' Sally would be feeling better on tne morrow and that he would try to get around early. He was unprepared for the snappish declaration that she did not expect to be home at all, and he flung down the stairs In the heat of an anger that rose as quickly as It fell. Once down the cool street he told himself that Sally had a headache, so he built castles In the air four-room castles in which Sally presided as mis tress and to which he came home when his day's toil was done to sit down to a savory mess of corned beef and cab bage with Sally across the table from him. But Sally's castles In Spain were stately edifices, thronged by knights and ladies, wherein her knight led all the others in beauty, grace and daring. She wondered how she had ever thought Tim Holran good looking, and shudder ed at her own want of taste. She was glad that she knew, better now; glad that she had found out before It was too late.' She did not even miss Tim when he failed to call for two evenings, for her anticipations were all centered about the knightly figure on the coal-black charger who spent the entire day rid ing up and down before her window at the factory and who always, as he rode, gave silent salute. The girls were held for a couple of hours Friday evening to get out a rush order and It was late when Sally hur ried home. There was a short cut through an unsavory portion of the town and, unmindful of the leering glances thrown at her, she hurried along, intent only upon getting home to supper as quickly as possible. She had almost cleared the section when with a shout a young fellow lurched out from one of the corner saloons and threw his arm about her shoulders. Sally screamed In terror, but the men standing in the doorways or lounging on the corner regarded the scene indul gently. Dago Joe probably meant only to kiss the girl, and, anyhow he was notably quick with a knife. They were not minded to make It amir theirs. Sally fought as best sh i-onld but the leering face approached' closer to ners ana the man's breath heat hotly against her cheek. Then she heard the clatter of hoofst a whoop unmistakably Irish and her assailant went reeling across the sidewalk from the force of a smart blow on the head from a club. with a cry of relief Sallv sprang toward her rescuer. It was her knight who, turning the corner, had come upon the Bcene and had charged the Italian with his lance- Now he slipped off his horse and finished off the job with his fists. Only once the knife flashed slip ping through the coat of mail and scratching the shoulder. Then the weapon was knocked from the Italian's hand and he was done up in approved style, until the conveniently nearsighted policeman interfered out of pity for the battered wreck. Then the knight turned to Sally. His flowing hair had fallen In the gutter, along with the glittering helmet. His flowing mustache hung lonesomely from one corner of his mouth. His eye brows, too, were sadly askew and blood stained the skirt of mail over tne shoulder. "Come round to the stable until I can put my horse up, and I'll take you home." offered the knight. "I was afraid you would find out I was doln this 'supe job until I could get me old place back." "Is it you, Tim?" gasped Sally. "Sure," was the sheepish reply. "A fellow offered me eight dollars to ad vertise his show for a week. I needed some money to take you to the .lady telephoners' ball tomorrow night and ,1 took him up. I thought you was wise when you threw a kiss to me yester day." They were walking toward the stable as they talked and now Tim led his horse inside. The coat of mail, maae oz cords daubed with aluminum paint,was soon stripped oft and the cut found to be a mere scratch. In a box stall Lim discarded the remainder of his gorgeous outfit and resumed his own well-worn suit- As they passed down the street in the direction of Sally's home, she slipped her arm through his confidingly "T'm triad It was you and not a make. believe knleht who rescued me," she whiftnered- "It was both of us," reminded Tim. "But I won't be a fake knight after to morrow. I'm going on the traffic po lice. The captain likes the way I ride and can get me right through. Now we can get married at Easter in spite of my losing my job." "I'm glad of that, too," said Sally contentedly as her castle In Spain shrunk to a four-room flat. (Copyright ed, 1908, by Associated Literary press.; Caring for the Nose. "It's a funny thing," said a doctor, "that the average man pays less at tention to the most prominent feature of his face than to any other part of his countenance. Yes, It s the nose I'm speaking of. We clamp it with eye-glasses that pinch too much or imoose upon it spectacles that are al together too heavy. Then we wonder why it increases in size or perhaps in redness. "But this lack of care for the nose Is not restricted to those whose vision is defective. I venture to say that not one man 'out of ten washes his nose in the way he should. Every other part of the face comes in for a vigorous scrubbing, but tne nose, which needs it most of all, is apt to be passed over gently probably be cause it is being -used to breathe through during the ablutions. The result is that the nose gives more and more evidence of being neglected, The tissues become flabby and the pores are filled up. A little massage would work wonders in such cases, hut it is rarely given. "Notice the. men you see In half an hour's time, and then tell me if my comments are not justified. Then see what you can do for your own nose." Philadelphia Press. ConW TaiBtte Come Back. "If that romantic and chivalrous pirate chief, Jean Lafltte, could come back to his old haunts along the Gulf of Mexico, he would have great dif ficulty In recognizing his ancient headauarters. the lowlying Isle of Barataria, which was afterward giv en the name of Galveston," said Mr. D. K. Herbert, of that thriving Texas seaport, at the Eutaw House. "The Barataria that Lafltte and his bold outlaw crew infested was a des ert Island but a few inches above the waters of the Gulf, but the Galveston of today has been raised to a much higher level, as a means of protec tion against the assaults of a tidal storm, such as came near destroying it und causing 6.000 people to lose their lives seven years ago. For ad ditional safety the people have built, at a cost of millions, one of the great est seawalls ever constructed, and none of us have now the remotest foar that the town will ever again suffer a like dreadful experience."
