many a man who has heretofore pre-
ferred to be soapless. Mr.. James VIII
son, a burglar gentleman who had
been shut up In the Lancaster jail, sue
ceeded, after stripping and thoroughly
soaping himself, in squeezing through
a hole which had been supposed to be
SO small that no man could possibly
escape by 1t. 1t must have made the
burglar shiver with horror to think Of
putting soap upon himself, but there
was nothing else for him to do if he
was to gain his liberty. How can the
people who have In the past shrunk
from soap continue to regard with 1t
fear or contempt? The experience OF
the Lancaster burglar should serve to
make soap precious to most of those
who have been spurning it The man
who is an enemy of soap never can
tell how soon he may be shut in behind
bars. In fact, he usually gets there.
sooner or later, and always deserves
to. He should therefore gradually ac-
custom himself to soap before the
crisis comes. If Burglar Wilson's ex-
perience serves to increase the popu-
larity of soap his escape will have been
far from a public misfortune

Robert Of Lincoln.
Merrily swinging on brier and weed,
Near to the nest Of his little dame,
Over the mountain side or mead,
Robert of Lincoln Is telling his names
Bob-o'-link, bob-o'-link,
Sphinx, spank, sphinx;
Snug and safe is that nest Of ours,
Hidden among the summer flowers.

Wearing a bright black wedding coat;
White are his shoulders and white his

Robert of Lincoln's Quaker wife,
Pretty and quiet, with plain brown
wings,
Passing at home a patient life,
Broods in the grass while her husband
sings:

Brood, kind creature; you need not fear
Thieves and robbers while am here.
Chez, chez, chez.
Modest and shy as a nun Is she;
One weak chirp is her only note.
Braggart and prince Of braggarts is he,
Pouring boasts from his little throat:
Bob-o'link, bob-o'-link,
Sphinx, spank, sphinx;
Never was afraid of man;
Catch me, cowardly knaves, II you can't

Gathering seeds for the hungry brood.

This new life is likely to be
Hard for gay young fellow like me.

Half forgotten that merry air,

Nobody knows but my mate and
Where our nest and our nestlings lie.

Summer wanes; the children are grown;
Fun and frolic no more he knows;
Robert Of Lincoln's humdrum crone;
Of he flies, and we sing as he goes.

When you can pipe that merry old
strain,
Robert Of Lincoln, come back again.

and her father.
The case will have to be retired.
The actress will not spend Christmas
with her aged parents at Washington
unless application for bond is made
and granted.
That 40 verdict would be reached
seemed sur this morning, when Judge
Davis called the jury in and talked to
the foreman. Later he said: The
possibility of reaching a verdict is alb.
solutely nil. We have gone over the
case thoroughly. Some jurors are not
open to argument. The possibility of
a verdict seems extremely remote"
Despite this, the judge sent the
jurors back for further consideration.
Toward noon the jury reported to the
court that it could not agree and was
sent back.
After a sleepless night, fraught with
= Suspense and worry, Nan Patterson
was brought into the prisoners pen
in the criminal court to await a YER

father, who said: Have no fear, my
girl; God is with u.s."
