A question which might elicit consid-
cradle interesting discussion is: why are
typical modern women twenty and even
thirty years younger in manner. dress
and appearance than were their giand-
mothers At the same agef One might
reply. says Mrs. Woodrow Wilson in the
March Cosmopolitan, very pert'pently
that, in the first place, they have decided
not to grow old; and, believe me, II is
largely question Of will. Having ussde
this decision. they seek the mesps which
shall enable them to retain their youth
iul appearance. They understand that
beauty and illhealsh are not coukenia
companions; consequently, the women o
to-day live much in the open air, loviul
the sun aud the breeze far more than tn

ROBBERS TAP ANOTHER TILL
Gs"sses Produce Company Robbed La.t Night
- Money and Cigars Taken - Orssal.ed
Gang Here


Gang Here
The till at the Gencsee Produce com.
pany's store Was robbed aud two dollars
IN money taken and ten boxes Of tine
cigars lifted from stock. This is the
third Of series of robberies that has oc-
CURED in the last ten days.
{. A. Phelps. one Of the proprietors Of
the Cenesee Produce company was
called from his bed early this morning
by the delivery boy ana notified that his
store had been robbed. Investigation
showed that the small change in the
money drawer aud ten boxes from his
stock Of cigars were missing. The rob-
bers removed a broken glass from the
front near the door and either crawled in
through the aperture or unlock ed the
door from the inside by reaching around
the casing.
The stealth and adroitness Of the rob
berry can be better appreciated when il is
known that Mr.. Phelps and his family
sleep in room not thirty feet away from
the door where the thief entered aud less
than that from the money drawer which
they opened aud robbed Of its pennies
aud small change. The till is a combin.
alton lock drawer and any ,inkling Of the
bell would easily have reused the in.
mates Of the sleeping apartment.
Mr.. Phelps says II is his custom to take
all the money to the bank early in the
afternoon aud take it all from the drawer
when he locks it up but two or three dol.
lars IN small change for the boy who
serves the early morning customers. lie
stated he had been awake till nearly mid
night with sick wife and would have
been easily reused had the burglars made
any noise, but he knew nothing Of il till
aroused by the boy.
Residents Of the neighborhood are ON
the outlook for burglars As this is the
third attempt at robbery in that part os
town in the last ten days. Fred Man
ming states that about midnight he saw
two men In the street in front Of the
Genesee Produce company's store. There
are other reports that men were seen
skulking in the rear Of another grocery
nearer TO town. and the evidence is &C.
cunnnlating that there is gang Of sneak
thieves operating in the city.

fellow has been making up for the

Cheeh goes back to Madison with

He did not accompany the team to Mil

work with the record of having won
twenty-five of the last twenty-five

on the last Eastern trip he pitched
twenty-six consecutive innings with
