A Clever Crater.

#
Wives of many farmers have, during
the past month, been victims of a
smooth lady CRATER, who, during her
stay in the county, cleared up several
hundred dollars by her scheme, which
is new one in these parts.
"The lady with little daughter
stopped at prominent boarding house
in the city and daily with her child
drove through the country selling hair
tonic to the farm ladies' After having
sold them bottle of worthless hair
tonic for dollar, she would ask If
they had any of their combings. This
necessary accompaniment to every
woman's toilet was then taken by the
lady, to be brought to her rooms in
this city and made into fine switch
that would make the farm wife have
twice the amount of hair that she ma
turally had. After securing the hair
combings she stated that she was
doing light housekeeping in the city
and would like about five dozen eggs.
The eggs would pay for the making Of
the switch, she stated. After selling
the tonic, securing the valuable hair
combings and five or six dozen eggs,
for which she had case under the
seat of her buggy, the lady would
leave with a promise to return the
switch and pay for the eggs in about
two weeks. That was the last seen Of
her at that farm house.
"This combination of gratis she
worked at hundreds of farm houses
The hair combings the lady shipped to
Chicago, where they were sold for high
prices, while the eggs were sold to
local grocers at highest market prices
Not until yesterday was her rgraft
found out, and then it was too late, for
she had LETT the city on an early morn
ing train without giving her next stop
ping place. incidentally she left many
accounts, including board bill in the
city.
'The lady with her smooth combina-
ton is new enc t. the police of this
country. She doubtless made humid
reds Of dollars, as eggs are now high
priced, the tonic is made of colored
water, and the hair combings are
worth much money in hair dressing
and switch making establishments"

New York. March 23.--In an at
tempt to check the dissemination OF

eases Of the respiratory organs, Presi-
dent Darlington OF the board Of health

win be educating the man. He has
brought the matter TO the attention
of Henry A. Rodgers. president OF the

proves the suggestion. Great quanti-
ties Of slips are being printed by the
department OF health for distribution
among the children. and at the same
time the teachers will be expected to
explain the seriousness Of the dangers
involved in the practice of splitting in
public places.
1t is designed that both boys and
girls carry little pad Of the warning
slips and that when they see a man
, violating the ordinance they win hand
card warning him Of the heavy fine
to which he is liable. Public. schoo
teachers also will be directed to take
particular pains in pointing out I
