HOTEL KEEPING
COSTLY BUSINESS
Hundreds of Dollars Worth
of Articles Carried Off
Yearly by GUESS

Local hotel men as well as those IN
other cities are much puzzled as 70 how
to devise means to prevent the many
cases OF petty larceny which frequently
occur at hotels wherby small articls Of
silver ware and even larger articles are
carried of by guests as souvenirs"
Amazing stories are told by hotel men
concerning the lengths to which women,
and men as well, viii go 70 add TO their
souvenir collections. From attaching such
trifes as salt spoons and pepper boxes,
thees hunters have proceeded to rob the
bedrooms Of water pitchers and even pill
low cases.
A prominent local hotel man said this
morning: "There IS scarcely a year that
passes that I do not have 70 spend sew
eral hundred dollars in the purchase Of
silver ware and other small articles which
have been carried OF by my guests at
one time or another. It seems that many
persons who are guests at a hotel, either
for a heal or over night have pcnchant
for carrying away articles which have a
monogram Of the house upon them. 1t
has been suggested by some hotel men
that the practice Of placing monograms
upon silver ware and the marking Of linen.
towels and bed clothing be abandoned as
a means Of checking to some extent the
desire OF the thieves 10 carry them on as
souvenirs But if this plan is adopted how
are we to identify articles that may be
stolen by professional thieves"
Women are said TO be the offenders TO
a great extent and in speaking along this
line one hotel man says:
"The artfulness OF the souvenir hunter
is worthy Of all praise She will deftly re-
move the saltcellar from the table and
hide It in her handkerchief until the time
comes to secrete it more securely. She is
merely toying with the saltoellar while
busily engaged in conversation with her
visa wis. should the waiter happen to
glance that way
Another trick is to drop some article
in the parasol that is he'd ready to receive
it,"
At the next meeting Of the hotel men the
question of how to deal with souvenir
hunters will be taken up and discussed at
length.

MiIk Rath For the Faes.

Now wash the face we'll with fresh
milk, scoop it up and dash it over the
face and neck rubbing it well with
the hands. This is particularly good
treatment for faces that are thin and
angular, and it also answers well for
those with dark-colored skins. i have
heard some women recommend the
application of orange oil to the face
in hot weather This is done by ap-
plying orange peel to the face. or al
lowing orange peel to soak all night
in the water that is to be used for
washing the face with in the morning.
To those who like TO try an orange
flower cream during the day to cleanse
the face I can recommend the follow
ing: Melt two ounces Of white wax
with four ounces of oil of sweet al
monds. and then beat in, drop by drop,
four ounces Of orange flower water.
This is both cleansing and cooling
and should be used both morning and
evening""

Laid and Won In Paris.
Gambling has always been a favor
lite occupation for the sons OF royal
houses. but none Of them probably
has ever exhibited so much wit and
ingenuity in his betting as foreign
prince did at his stay In Paris.
He laid a heavy wager with men,
her of the Imperial club Of the French
capital that within two hours he
would be arrested by the police with
out committing any offense or pro-
yoking the officers Of the law In any
fashion. Accordingly, having clothed
himself In rags Of the most disreputa'
BILE appearance. he walked Into one OF
the most aristocratic restaurants In
the city and ordered a cup OF choco
late. The waiter refused to serve him
unless he showed evidence that he
could pay. The prince at once drew
n roll Of bank notes from his pocke
and offered one Of large denomination
to the astonshed attendant. The lar
ter took the bill and carried 1t at once
to the proprietor, who sent for TIT
nolIce in the meantime allowing hi
strange guest to be served.

AN OLD GERMAN LEGEND.
The Skull With the Nail Drtven
Through Its Temple.


At FreIburg, Baden. In front OF an
old chapel rich In medieval painting
denIcting the rewards Of virtue and
the wages Of sin, stands great cross,
at its foot a skull with a nall driven
into the temple.
A shoemaker Of Freiburg, according
to tradition, died suddenly In the GOOD
old days before coroners and 1uries
were too inqulsitlve and was buried
near where the cross stands. Scarcely
had the earth upon his grave been wet
nv the rains before his wife took sec
ond husband.
Neighbors talked, but that was all.
One night the priest OF the parish
awoke to find standing at the foot OF
his bed the ghost of the dead shoe
maker. The CHASTITY figure raised a
cory lock from It's forehead and point
ed to a nail driven In the temple.
The body was exhumed. and there
was the evidence Of the crime just as
the specter had indicated. The wife
confessed the murder and was execut
ed. But the skull was placed at the
foot of the cross as q warning.
