The New Spring Shirt Waist

Broader shoulders characterize
the first of the spring shirt-waists.
The smartest designs for a linen
shirt-waist is made with three deep
plaits on each shoulder, back and
front. At the back the plaits taper
toward the waist. The pattern
provides for high band turn-down
collar, but the waist is also finished
with a neckband, so that it may be
worn with a stiff linen collar if pre-
ferred. The regular shirt waist
sleeve is used, finished with a
straight cuff. The fastening of the
waist is in the front through the
center box plait. The stitched
and the broad shoulder line give
this shirt-waist an air of newness
and smartness. Through this
spring the lingerie waist will be
more in vogue than ever, yet the
talor-made linen waist will also be
much in demand. Grace Margaret

BABY WASTED TO SKELETON.

Cured by Cuticura.

my little son, when about a year

ONE out on his face. They began to
come on his arms, then on other parts
of his body, and then one came on his
chest, worse than the others. At the
end of about a year and a half of suf-
fering he grew SO bad 1 had to tie his
hands in cloths at night to keep him
from scratching the sores and tearing
the flesh. He got to be a mere skele-
ton and was hardly able to walk. 1
SEN to the drug store and gotta cake
of Cuticura Soap and a box of Cuticura
Ointment, and at the end of about two
months the sores were all well. He
has never had any sores of any kind
since, and only for the Cuticura Rem

died from these terrible sores. 1 used

A $4,000 TREASURY ROBBERY.
Clever Work Of Detective Revealed
the Thief.

The robbery Of the sub-treasury in
Chicago recalls the fact that the
treasury department in Washington
was the victim of a s40,0 theft about
80 years ago. At first, although no
reasonable explanation Of how the
thing could have been done by al out
slider could be given, it was assumed
that it was the work of some one I'M
connected with the Office in which the
robbery occurred. 1t was not long,
however, before a clever detective
became acquainted with the fact that
one of the clerks who might have had
access to the bundle of bills was &C.
quainted with a professional gambler
of shady antecedents. That discovery
solved the problem. A little patient
watching resulted in catching the
gambler with the stolen notes, and
the rest was easy. The clerk was ar
rested, and, while in confinement, was
given to understand that he was be-
trayed, whereupon he confessed the
robbery, which was accomplished by
showing the package of notes, all of
large denominations, into a position
where they could be "snaked up"
with a cane provided with a hook.

With a smooth IRON and Defiance

The Montgomery tribune. (Montgomery City, Mo.) 1892-1910, 1907-04-19

Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory If the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, it is usually neces-
sary to use SO much starch that the
beauty and fineness Of the fabric Is
hidden behind a paste of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear
ing quality Of the goods. This trouble
can be entirely overcome by using De-
fiance Starch, as it can be applied
much more thinly because of its great
Or strength than other makes.
