What Women Are Wearing-SOme
Chic SpeciaIties For Men.
The necklace is the important item
Of the season. It has been brilliantly
launched upon what promises to be a
highly successful career. In close
touch with this runs the string Of
pearls or other beads.
Large and costly corsage ornaments
have been among favored pieces. The
bracelet, that truly feminine and his
toric ornament, is reported as coming
in again with surprising rapidity."
Of the use of rings it would be i'm
possible to say too much. A ring has
this season been introduced which is
especially designed for lady's little
finger. This is of heavy gold set with
a line of fine diamonds.
Earrings, as far as positive assertion
Of the jewelers. goes, remain in statu
quo in this country, yet many small in
dications point to their greater use for
the future Earrings are worn abroad,
and wherever women may procure
them there are undoubtedly more to
be seen in use here than was the case

AFTER MAGGIE KELLY.
Kenosha Police Are Asked to Make a
Search for Woman Wanted In ST. Louis

Chief of Police Reino1d has received
a letter from the chief of the police
department of St. Louis, asking him
to make an effort to find Maggie
Kelly, noted woman thief who is
wanted in St. Louis on a charge Of
robbery.
Last November, Maggie robbed one
of the well-known citizens of ST.
Louis and managed to secure dia-
mond pin valued at a thousand dol
lars. She was arrested and released
on bond but jumped her bond. She
was traced as far as Chicago and then
it is thought that she came to one of
the North Shore cities.
"A reward of $500 is offered for the
arrest of the woman. The police Off
GERS do not believe that the woman
has been in Kenosha but they are
making a pretty close investigation
of the case.

Be Willing TO Be Nerxoua

To argue with nervous anxiety.
either in ourselves or in others. is
never helpful. Arguing with nervous
excitement Of any kind is like rub
bling a sore. 1t only irritates it. It
does not take long TO argue excited or
tired nerves into Inflammation, but it
is long and difficult process to allay
the Inflammation. 1t is a sad fact
that many people have been argued
into long nervous illnesses by would
be kind friends, whose only intention
was to argue them out of illness.
Even the kindest and most disinterest-
ed friends are apt to lose patience
when they argue, and that. to the tired
brain which they are trying to re-
lieye, is a greater irritant than they
realize. The radical cure for nerv-
GUS fears Is to drop resistance to pain
full circumstances or conditions. Re
sistance is unwillingness to endure.
and to drop the resistance is to be
strongly willing. This vigorous twill
ingness" is so absolutely certain in it's
happy effect, and it is so impossible
that it should fail, that the resistant
| impulses seem to oppose themselves
to 1t with extreme energy. 1t is as if
the resistances were conscious imps
and as If their certainty of defeat
in the case of their victims entire
"willingness"-rous them to do theiI
worst, and to hold on to their only pos
sible means of power with all the
more determination. But every SHARP
attack, if met with quiet willingness
brings a defeat for the assailants, un
| til, finally the resistant imps are con
quered and sappear.-Leslie's Month

1t appears from a tabulated state
ment of the results Of the annual tar
get practice issued by the Navy De
partment that the gunners of our rieet
have attained very high degree of
accuracy. This is particularly true
with regard to guns Of five-inch calibeT
and upward. The North Atlantic and
the Asiatic battleship squadrons have
distinguished themselves by records or
1927 per cent and 1884 per cent re-
spectively. The cruisers have not
done so well as the battleships. The
explanation is simple enough. The
larger vessel constitutes a steadler gun
platform in seaway, and, its guns
being placed higher. more perfect
range is secured. This conclusion Is
emphasized by the fact that the gun
practice of the torpedo fiotillas was
very unequal.

A fair share of the frictions of do
nestle life comes from the effort to
make over temperamental peculiari-
ties. The tortoise instructs the hare
In persistence, the hare lectures the
tortoise on speed, and each irritates
the other without good result. The
mother wisher her daughter to love
reading; the daughter prefers sewing
The father urges his son to follow the
law; the son is more interested in the
chemistry of soils than in writs and
torts. Family heartaches and disap
pointments ensue from mere honest
difference in taste. Ben Jonson found
fault with Shakespeare because it was
said of him that in his writing, what
soever he penned, he never blotted out
line. Said Jonson, would he had
blotted a thousandw But Shakespeare
lives very prosperously without the
blots, and the world cares little for
Jonson's devout wish, and has forgot
ten much of his work On the other
hand, to have hindered Pope from his
painstaking correction and revision
would have been to cheat the world of
many of its household words. So it is
the wise mother and the patient
daughter who accept the great funda-
mental fact that in character and abil-
ity there are diversiues of gifts. The

nature, but any one of them would be

A Cat 8 Paper Boots.


Did you ever put paper boots on
your cat? That Is what Dicks play
mates did to HIM. / was one of them,
and it was great fun even for Dick
himself. His feet were tied up in
smooth paper and then he was set
down ON the floor. Then a spool tied
to a string was put before him. Dick
loved to play with spools, and was
quick to catch them. He liked to
play ball with them or make believe
they were mice to be tossed or wor-
ried. But when Dick tried to catch
the spool with his paper boots on
it was a funny sight. His legs went
wherever they chose. They did not
care what he wanted at all. Each foot
went skating by itself, and left poor
Dick fat on the floor. He kicked,
rolled over and over, and was the
most puzzled cat you ever saw. He
looked at that lively spool, winked at
it, snatched at it, but could never
catch 1t. He thought that it was the
queerest spool he had ever seen, and
that his feet were the queerest things
he had ever owned.-St. Nicholas.
