x FEW NEW SPRING
DRESS ACCESSORIES
In his Day Little Things of Womans Toilette
Cost More Than the Big Ones

This IS a day and time when the
little odds and ends OF a woman's toi-
lette amount to a far larger output Of
money than her frocks. hat and coat.
And il is these very little things that
give her the smart look so coveted. II
is the way she selects these accessories
and, having done that. the way she
wears them that gives her the well
dressed look.
For instance, the gloves that have
been worn all winter and are still

tally if they are held up by the new

A Smart Shoestring.
Another new convenience is a shoe
string for low footwear. which does not
need to be tied. but is fastened by
means of catches which hold the tie

THE HONE ITS PROBLEMS <lVD ITS INTERESTS
SLEEPING LATE ON SUNDAY
MORNING Is INJURIOUS
The Habit of Arising Later One Day in the Week
Than Usual Is Not Good One to Follow.

The habit Of sleeping late on Sun

Milwaukee physician. 1t disarranges
.the regular habits of living and even
predispOses to real Illness.
Women who sleep six or eight hours

day too much rest. the next day too lit

The old philosopher. Kant, appor-

follow If a person can so arrange his

THE SOLDIERS LAW
Attorney General Mullen Says It Does
Not Apply to Secretary of School
Board osition--chanses in School
Special to Times-Republican.

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines, March 20.-According to
the attorney general and State Super
intendent Riggs, old soldiers have no
advantage in the appointment for sec
rotary of school boards either in the
city OF rural districts. A Humeston
man has written to inquire, and the
matter was taken before Attorney Gen
eral Mullen, who gave an informal
opinion that the language of the old
soldiers preference law did not provide
for giving old soldiers preference in
such appointments. The law says any
public department. or city, county,
township or state office that is APP
pointive but says nothing about school
districts. Attorney General Mullen
thinks IL 1t had been intended to give
old soldiers preference in such APP
pointments the law would have so stat
ed explicitly.
The state superintendent has made
every effort possible to inform the
school men over the state of the
changes in the school law as to the
time when directors take their posi-
tons, but the length of time since the
passage of the Kline bill has been so
short that 1t is feared there will
he mistakes made. Under the
new law in the rural schools
the directors will not take
their office till July a. Under the old
law the newly elected directors would
have met yesterday and organized.
The law has been looked up and off
Gals are being informed of it's pro-
visions A copy of the law and a cir
cular letter of instructions will be plac-
ed in the hands of every director and
school official before July l. 1t has
been discovered, however, that if the
directors meet and organize before July
/ the only result will be that their acts
are illegal. 1t is feared that in some
cases the old directors may get on a
high horse and refuse to serve for the
time till July l. If they do the state
Superintendent is urging the county
superintendents to get enough of
them to serve over so that the new
directors can he appointed to the Va
cancies. Then when the additional

st. Louis, Mo-, March Gothic
Standard Oil Company owns and con-
trolls the Republic and WatersPierce
Oil companies, both doing business in
Missouri under guise of independent
concerns hostile to the big Rockefeller
trust.
This fact was admitted yesterday.
and thus Attorney General Hadley
gained the information which Henry
II. Rogers refused to give in the New
York hearing some weeks ago.
The points brought out in the hear
ing of the Missouri custer suit against
the Standard, Republic, and Waters
Pierce companies, summed I'D as fol-
lows:
THAT stock of the Republic Oil
company is held by individuals for the
Standard Oil
That Frank Wilson, assistant secre-
tary to w. G. Rockefeller president of
the Standard Oil, is Republic stock
holder.
That the Waters-Pierce bought Oil
from the Standard Oil refineries
THAT in payment for Oil bought by
the Waters-F'ierce Oil Company from
the Atlantic, refinery of Philadelphia,
an alleged Independent concern, the
checks since 1904, have been sent to
IS Broadway, New York, headquarters
of the Standard Oil.
That stock i'm the Waters-Pierce OIL
Company is held by NJ. NJ. Van Buren,,
nephew of John Archbold, an official
of the Standard OIL"
Comes as Complete Surrender.
The admission of the foregoing facts
comes as a complete surrender Of the
have defied the orders of the Missouri
supreme court that they give the in
formation.
The surrender is believed to be due
to the recent decision Of the United
States supreme court in the paper trust
case. In that decision the court,
in effect ruled that while person
might be immune under the constitu-
ton in giving discriminating testimony
against himself corporation was not
entitled to the same immunity.
When Attorney General Hadley be-
gan suit to GUST the Waters-Pierce
Company from the state of Missouri
the supreme court ordered the
production Of certain books and pa
pers of that company.
The officers of the company refused
to produce the books and papers and
to give any information.
Therefore, Attorney General Hadley
subpoenaed John D. Rockefeller, Hen
nv H. Rogers, and other Standard Oil
officials to give testimony before
commissioner in New York.
Drives Rockefeller into Hiding.
John D. Rockefeller, in order to evade
service of the subpoena, has been in
hiding since February 9, his efforts to
avoid being examined under oath be-
ing SO sensational as to attract gen.
eral attention over the United States.
Henry H. Rogers appeared. and, after
being on the witness stand three days,
refused to give any information on the
connection between the Standard OH
and Waters Pierce companies. An ap-
plication to the supreme court of New
York to compel him to answer is still
pending.
