An Effective Dry Shampoo.

Many women who have luxurou,
tresses and who take cold easily are
obliged to forego washing them as
often as they would like because of the
difficulty of getting them dry quicsly.
For such, a dry shampoo is the next
best thing. and. if carefully and thor
oughly done, it removes the accurlu-
lated dust and daldruf almost as well
as washing. The hair should be shaken
loosely out ov<- the shoulders and the
head manipulated with the fingers till
all foreign matter is well loosened and
scattered through the hair, which
should then be parted in differ ent
places all over the head and the psrtS
cleansed with stiff little brush, after
which the entire head and hair should
be very thoroughly brushed in sections
till the dandruff is brushed out as N Ich
as possible. when some good hair u nj:
or scalp cleanser may be rubbed on and
the snarls engende:ed By the wfolc
process gently combed out. and tho
ends of the hair clipped This should
always be done once month to p-o-
mote the growth of the hair.

CHAPTER !


In the early autumn of 1s-a young
man who was registered at the Lexing-
ton (ky.) military academy as Surden
Bench. aged twenty-five. got up about
three o'clock IN the morning and. talk
ing eight hundred dollars belonging
to the academy and his fellow-students,
-decamped-
The significance of the circumstance
at the time arose from the discovery of
the deliberate and ingenious method
pursued by Bench to accomplish his
purpose. He had conceived some kind
of town celebration and induced the
young men to write home for funds.
He also succeeded in getting them to
make him the depository of the money,
which according to the books amount
ed to eight hundred and fifty-four dol
lars. He disappeared from Lexington
and all the efforts of the faculty and
the authorities to trace him failed.
It is now known that when he left the
academy he struck across country to
the salt river, where he had skiff in
hiding and presumably a negro con-
federate. With Characteristic Ken
lucky impulse, the young men of the
school held an Indignation meeting
and offered the eight hundred dollars
to anyone who would capture him and
turn him over to the authorities. This
reward put upon his trail several
western deputy sheriffs who tracked
him to Cairo. Ill, where it was sus-
pected that be had changed his boat,
bought ammunition and supplies and
set off down the Mississippi, travelling
generally in the night and hiding in
the bayous during the day.
Deputy Sheriff Col. Abner Petingill,
of Frankfort. published in the Louis
vile Journal year later communi-
cation setting forth that his party had
tracked Deneh to bayou, somewhere
between Tiptonville and Fulton. on
the Tennessee shore, where the fugi-
tive had sunk his boat and struck
through the wild tract of country ex-
tending to what Is known as the High
land Rim" in Henderson county. This
communication is curious in one state
ment. 1t says: I'VE discovered, after
much tedious searching, the sunken
boat and then struck his trail in the
woods. We had not followed it far be-
fore we came to the conclusion that he
was accompanied by woman"
Col. Petingill then states that it was
his belief and the belief of his party
that Bench met with an accident some
where on the Rim. for all traces of him
disappeared. and after camping out for
two weeks in the wilderness and dis
covering no new trail the party re-
turned.
The fact is Bench had accidentally
discovered the Laran cave.
In his endeavor 20 escape from his
pursuers, he had struck straight up the
rim and in jumping from one of the

was an extension of the silk. with a
draw string: the edge of the shoe was
finished with ribbon quilting, like the
other. The shoes had been red kid,
and the mother had kind of varnish
with which she colored them when
they seemed to grow rusty. The two
shoes were firmly gummed to the little
china plate which the child had always
used, and the whole thing made a
dainty memento of one so dearly loved.
II the shoes have been black they can
be renewed with shoe varnish: if they
have been white you can clean them
with gasoline, and anyone handy with
a needle can fix them up.

He folded his arms and stood looking

Kent then began a free and easy

Prose Poem in which the Trusts Dou'e
Feel Bad Prior to the Last Verse.
There is sorrow in the white hot-se,
where the lights are dim and low; there
is grief ND at the capitol where sad
eyed statesmen go; there is pain in the
committee rooms, where democrats sit
glum, and the star-eyed goddess glow
ers as she frowns and bites her thumbs
there is weeping loud and wailing over
one poor tariff bill. and the democrattc
cloak rooms are all silent, cold and
chill. Democrats who once were hap

nobody has discovered that the trusts

Once the house set out quite gayly To-
draw up a tariff bill, and the demo-
Gratis assembled on the capitals high
hill Mr. Wilson and MeMillin and
the other democrats cut the duties
down on diamonds, carpets, coal and
Persian cats; took the duty OF OF
sugar, slapped a higher one on rice,
tinkered with the tariff question till
they all felt gay and nice; sent the bill
on to the senate, happy DER their
work and glad. but they found some
how or other that no trusts were feel-
| ing bad.

A frame for your photographs may
be made as follows: Cut heavy card

square openings in these panels through
which your pictures may be seen. and
cover the cardboard with large piece

the center of each opening toward each
corner of the same, drawn to the back
of the cardboard and securely pasted or
glued down The pictures may then
be arranged. and. lastly. second piece

HINTS ON REPAIRING.
The Beauty Of n Stitch In Time ss Ap
pIfed To HousehoId (,oods


1.-THE secret of seldom wanting new
things is to keep the old ones well
mended,- said a thrifty housekeeper as
she showed me a shelf where she kept
what she called patches"
There were little cans of different
kinds of paint and enamel. different
sized paint brushes, a box of liquid gilt,
some good glue and remnants of all the
different wall papers.
The kitchen hearth was never al
lowed to get shabby, but once a month
was treated to a coat CT dull Pompeiian
red paint
When the gas fixtures grew disrep-
utable from being furnished with age
and notified with flies they were given
a coat of common white paint and then
regilded-
Picture frames whose enamel had
yellowed received a new coat The
gliding was retouchcd. and the result
was a new frame. Old wooden frames
were enameled and picked out with
gilt or stained mahogany and var
nished.
The handsome Chinese umbrella rack
was broken, but not on that account
discarded. says writer in the New
York Recorder. 1t was rnended with
cement with the greatest care and the
ugly lines hidden with brush dipped
in liquid gilt and passed along the zig
gag cracks, really enriching the quaint
oriental pattern.
Many costly vase might be mended
by this process, and so long as it was
only used as bric-a-brac no one would
be the wiser. A good cement for
broken china may be made by beating
the white of an egg to a paste with
-four; or half an ounce of gum arabic
may be dissolved in gill of boiling
water and thickened with plaster of
paris.
The piano movers had broken and
torn an ugly cash in the hall wall
paper, but single breadth carefully
put on made it as good as new.
Loosened chair rungs or arms were
always quickly glued in place. A tiny
hole in the wire screen door was never
allowed to grow larger until first the
cat and afterward the dog had free
pass into the hall or kitchen. 1t was
promptly uended with fine wire, and
the screen doors were painted every
year before they were put up, which
make both wire and frame last twice
as long.
We have all heard the old doggerel:
For want Of n nail the shoe was lost:
For want of q shoe the horse was lost;
For want Of horse the rider was lost.
1t doesn't pay to run house on this
plan.

| companied them. He proved on this
occasion to be the life of the little
party. There seemed to be nothing
that he could not do. from making an
omelette in the woods to making a
speech to the children. The governor
was really quite proud of his guest
| Kent had now been three days inside
the prison jurisdiction. and how well
| he had improved his time appeared
afterwards. When they were coming
home from the picnic he told Mrs.
Ixtel that he had overstayed his time
and must finish up his business on the
morrow. II the governor would lock
him up with Laport he thought L
could make the fellow confidential.
The upshot of all this was that on
| the fourth day Kent was taken to La
ports cell. carrying nothing but a
pencil and pad which the governor had
furnished him, and jocularly remark
ing as he was going through the cor
ridor that they ought to search him
first. for he might have some files about
him and let that rascal out to teach the
world golden silence.
The governor laughed. as he now did
at almost everything Kent said. and
only remarked: IF he gets away from
me. I'll take all the blame"
''All right" rejoined Kent, but, az
you value human life, don't forget to
J let me out inside of the half hour.
Make it twenty minutes"
They entered the cell together. La
port was sitting on the stone floor with
his head between his knees He
neither rose nor looked up as they came
in The place was dimly lit By one
embrasure. 1t was furnished with an
iron pallet and pail
Kent went toward the light and
looked ct large gold watch 1T is
ten minutes of ten" he said Give
me till a quarter past"
Laport looked up and addressed him
self to the governor:
Are you going to put this lunatic
on mc?" he said. iii | knock my
brains ont against these walls?"
The best way to get rid of him. ="
replied the governor, lis to treat him
civiIly. He doesn't want to annoy
you. and he comes from some of your
friends"
Yes said Kent. you can treat me
confdentially- The governor is going
to leave US together for few moments
If you will answer some of my ques-
tons can be of service to you"
Laport dropped his head between his
hands The governor gave a shrug
and turned to the door. I've heard of
squeezing pig-lead out of sponge" he
said Its holiday work to squeezing
that old bundle of scrap-iron-"
For Gods sake, don't forget me
when the times up" said Kent, and
sat down on the iron bed
The governor then went out Kent
heard the great bolt shot with an iron
clang.
Now then he said so that the
Governor could hear him on the other
side of the door if he listened. This
is the last chance I've got to talk to
you, my friend If you will tell me
what | want to know it viii secure
you the influence of powerful friends"
He listened He heard the retreat
ing footsteps of the governor in the
corridor. He sprang softly but quickly
to the iron door and put his ear down
The governor was some distance
away.

like a momentary interest in the
strange actions
