Good Hints to Follow When Bad Re
suits Are Noted on the
Hands.

Written for The Evening Star.
There is no danger in work-the risk lies
in drudgery.
Work is good, brave, noble. all sorts Of
things that uplifting and identifying.
But once woman let's herself take it in
dull and spiritless fashion there is little
chance for her youth and good looks. Busy
people live long and are well preserved;
toiling people are old and bent at thirty.
If it is your lot to be the daughter of
an economical father or the wife of a
struggling husband, and if the assistance
of maid has no. been given to you, take
UP your duties about the house and make
the best of them. Enter into them with a
good will and beware of the dangers in the
path. If you bear in mind the risks you
run and determine not to fall victim to
them, you will come out as dainty and we'll
groomed as your sister who keeps several
servants and never puts her hand to any
thing more homely than the writing of
society notes.
First of all, hands show the sign of
hard work of this nature. Watch them
with an eagle eye and devote some effort
to them. You cannot expect to keep their
girlish whiteness and smoothness unless
you take pains to secure the result. If
you never have your hands in dish water
mingled with the powerful alkali of soap,
If you never scrub floors if you never peel
potatoes and fruits-it will be a very
simple matter to attend to the hands You
do all of those things; consequently you
must give yourself at least fifteen minutes
each day, and half an hour or more once
or twice a week, to diligent manicuring.
You know that the skin surrounding the
nail must be pushed back every day with
an orange wood stick. This is done when
the hands have been in water a while.
Then the skin is soft and pushes readily.
II you are thrifty of time you will go
through this process after the morning
dishwashing, and so take advantage of the
thorough soaking the skin has had.
At the same time you should clean the
nails thoroughly with the small end of the
stick. Any foreign matter lying under

effective especially IL they demonstrate
some one of the new seasons color schemes.
These show in spangled and embroidered
tulle gowns strange grays which are all
but white, pinks which are scarcely more
than blush, and blues of ineffable faint
ness. A very elaborate evening gown in
the gray-white is of net and lace, with the
founces scatteringly spangled. The whole
dress. the girdle excepted, is in this mys-
terious white to which a wide belt of cleo
trio blue silk gives note OF ad6ed ghostli-
ness. Indeed, the moment one of these
spangled robe dresses is wholly charming
ii is bound to be either pure white or else
in a suggested color. Definite shades rarely
make up satisfactorily. the fairy FREELY

than plain pinks and blues and greens.
The Trimmings.
ITpon a very elaborate evening coat are
employed the Napoleonic wreaths, which
show here and there in imported trim.
mings In this instance the decoration is
of white lace, tapping lace leaves being
employed to shape the chaplets whose clas-
sic oval is most decorative. The coat,
which is in directoire form, has short
body of white lace to which long skirt of
chiffon is fuled. Double puftings taken up
from the length effectively ornament the
skirt and interlinings of pale blue and pink
give to the outside an opallne coloring.
With this handsome garment is worn one
of the small hats which are shown by sew
eral well-known importers for theater wear.

a panache of white ostrich feathers at the
left side.
The hat peculiarly suited to the play
house is not likely to get much of a
hold here, but the chapeau, so called, p

recent evening millinery. Even some of
the day chapeaux effect a modest snugness,
and this is particularly noticeable with
French millinery which is always less ex-
aggerated than the home product. May
all other hats take the cue!

Tea Gowns and House Gowns.

From Harper's Bazaar.
The brocade tea gowns are perhaps the
most practical of any, for the brocades
can be bought at quite reasonable prices,
and very little trimming is required for
them. At the same time these brocade
gowns are very effective. The light coiors
are excellent, and black is always good A
front of white lace or of black lace over
white is the most practical for this pur-
pose.

Second Officer Green Taken
Into Custody for Fraud
in Naturalization Papers
MADE CITIZEN QUICKLY
Becomes Subject Of United
States Two Weeks After
Arrival in the Country

John Francis Green. second officer of
the steamship Siberia. was taken into
custody yesterday by United States Sc
cret Service Agent Richard H Taylor on
a charge of having obtained naturaliza-
ton papers fraudulently. Green was COM
mitted to Jail in default of $4,000 bonds
Agent Taylor discovered that Green
subject of Great Britain, came to the
United States in 1900. Two weeks after
his arrival he received a paper purporting
to be certified copy of naturalization
papers granted in Judge Bahr's court
under date of November s, 1900. The
names of the witnesses on the paper are
William Cunningham of 733A Clementina
street and Alic CART of 164 South Park
The names of George H. Bahrs, Judge,
and William A. Deane. Clerk, are affixed
with a rubber stamp, and the document Is
signed with pen and ink in the name of
w. c. Raisch, deputy clerk. The sigma
ture is in the same handwriting as that
of the written part of the certificate. The
paper bears the seal Of the court. On the
back is the Endorsement, Voting register,
precinct 16, Assembly District 20, July T.
1904 Frank A. Taron," indicating that
Green had become registered as a voter
by the presenta ton of the certificate
Raisch informed Agent Taylor that his
purported signature was rank forgery.
Green said that the certified copy had
been handed to him by William Cunning
ham, whose name appears thereon as
witness. A search of the records In the
County Clerks office showed that there
was no original of the copy on file or any
minute of Green's naturalization in that
court.
Upon being "sweated" in the secret ser
vice office Green admitted that shortly
after having received the pretended copy
of the naturalization certificate he had
presented 1t to Captains Bolles and Bull
ger United States local inspectors, and
had been granted an American second
mates license thereon. He admitted also
that on February 5, 1904. he received from
the same persons on the strength of the
forged papers an American masters IL
cense He acknowledged that he had
never appeared before any court to apply
to become naturalized, but he was un-
able to explain how the fraudulent paper
had been obtained.
Paul Rappmundt, one of the alleged
naturalization fraud conspirators, was
examined before United States Commits
sioner Heacock yesterday for having be-
come Illegally naturalized on the tesu-
mony of Ernest Graesner in Judge Gra-
hams court The hearing was continued
for a few days in order to obtain the at
tendance of an important witness.
