Writer Care of Hands.

Hands should be given special atten-
ton In cold weather. Chilblains and
chaps are injurious as we'll as painful.
BY exercising the hands the circula-
ton is kept up, and with the use of
few simple lotions and the precaution
Of wearing warm gloves outdoors they
may be kept in very good condition
the winter through. A few drops of
spirits of benzoin in the water In
which they are washed will aid In
keeping them smooth Equal parts of
glycerin and rosewater or glycerin
and distilled water well rubbed into
the skin at night are very healing.
Loose kid gloves from which the finger
ends have been cut should be worn
when a lotion Is used.
Lemon juice is one of the best rene
dies for whitening the hands. Vaseline
and lard or olive oil are excellent for
softening the skim Five drops of
carbolic acid to one ounce of glycerin
and one ounce of rosewater is a SIM
pie preparation for chapped hands.
Lemon juice is good for taking the
stain off the nails. Nightly applica-
lions of vaseline to skin about the
nails and pushing the cuticle back
with an orange wood stick will keep
them shapely,

Barber Wanted for kidnapping His
Son and for Adultery Taken
in Colorado Wednesday
WILL. RETURN TO KEN0SHA
Missing Barber Is Alleged to Have
Travelled in Company With a
Woman Who Recently Dis
appeared from Here.

@. H. Schaffer, wanted in Kenosha
on the double scharge of KIDNAPPING
and adultery, was arrested on Christ
mas day at Longmount, Col, and
Chief of Police O'Hare late Wednes-
day night received a telegram from
Marshal f. w. Wheatly, Of that city,
stating that Schaffer was In custody
and awaiting the coming of the Keno
sha officials. Schaffer had reached
Longmount only few hours before
his arrest.
Schafer 1eft.Kenosha ten days ago,
taking with him his little son
5 years Of age. Before he left he
had given his wife $50 after disposing
of his interests in Kenosha. The
story Of the capture of Schaffer prom
Uses 10 be most sensational one. It
is alleged that at the time of his capr
ture al Long mount Schaffer had under
his protection a we'll known woman of
Kenosha. The young woman had
been infatuated with the former Ke-
nosha barber, and notwithstanding
the fact that Schaffer had a wife and
two children, 1t is alleged that he had
been keeping company with the other
woman for some time before he aban-
doned his wife and one Of the children
and started for the West. It was dis
covered by the police that this woman
had left Kenosha two weeks ago aud
that she had gone to her home in
Sheboygan Falls. Up to that time
the young woman had been working
as domestic in we'll known family
on Prairie avenue. Her relations to
Schaffer had attracted the attention
of the woman who employed her and
she had protested against her con-
tinuing these relations.
When Schaffer left Kenosha he
went directly to Sheboygan Falls and
the chief of police found that the twog
accompanied by the little son of
Sche fer, had left Sheboygan Falls
more than week ago. 1t was sup
posed that they were bound for Kan
sas City, but they did not stop in
Missouri but went directly to Colorado
where Schaffer was arrested Wednes-
day afternoon. Tt is not thought
that the woman has been taken into
custody by the officials of Longmouut
and no warrant has been issued for
her arrest here and it is probable that
the police will make no effort to Sc
cure her. The police will make their
first effort to secure the custody of
the little boy Swhom Schaffer took
with him when he left Kenosha and
then Schaffer will be brought here
to answer to the charges against MIN.
It is thought that Schaffer will return
to Kenosha without 1equisition papers
Chief Of Police O'Hare was in COM
munication with the officials. of the
Colorado city this morning and as
soon as the details can be arranged
he will leave for the West to bring
Schatfer back to Kenosha In the
meantime it is expected that the bar
Der will be held on fugitive warrant
by the Colorado officials.
The police refuse to make public
the name of the young woman who is
alleged to be with Schaffer stating
that her name will not be made public
until after warrant has been issued
for her arrest or until she is brought
back TO Kenosha to give evidence
against Scnaffer.

WHERE there is much smoke there
must be some fire, and Judging from
the numerous complaints that are
being turned in about the work there
must be something radically wrong
with the street cleaning department
somewhere. These are not the regu.
lar stock complaints that are always
being made, but something very diff
ferent. Many of them are made by
the aldermen themselves and other
people in position to observe the
work that is being done, and their
complaints are Certainly entitled to
every consideration. That Depart
meat costs the city entirely too much
money to be allowed to run along any
old way, and if the men who are sup
posed to be in charge Of it are not at
tending to business properly they
should be removed and more compe-
tent men put in their places.

CULTvATING THE HAND.
How 1t May Be Made Graceful, Ex-
pressive and Beautiful.

TOW IL May BE MADE. Graceful, Elk
pressive and Beautiful.
Most hands are as stiff and wooden
looking as if they were cast in plaster.
A hand may be as expressive as the
face. There is the famous picture of
the praying hands of Albrecht Durer,
which depicts nothing more than two
slender white hands with long pointed
fingers, delicate nails and transparent
skin. They are so clasped as to ex-
press the most profound religious de-
votion. Most hands express very lit
lie, or very little that is pleasing. We
have all seen the fat, pudgy hand, in
iert and expressive of Incidence; the
thick, heavy red hand, expressive of
coarseness or brutality, or the color
less, bony hand with large knuckles
and thumb and inturned fingers, ex-
spressive of selfishness and grasping,
but it is seldom that the well proper
toned, we'll kept, supple and graceful
hand is encountered Grace may be
as much a characteristic of a hand as
of the figure. AS a rule, the Anglo
Saxon hand is not graceful This is a
characteristic of the hand of the Latin
races, which is generally flexible and
wildly expressive. Perhaps this is one
reason the latter excel as musicians,
for the utmost ease and elasticity are
required Of the hand of pianist, vio-
linist or performer on any other mu-
steal instrument No stubby, short
fingered hand ever gained the mastery
of the bow or keyboard.

FEW people realize how much time

how much of sacrifice of his private
business interests man is often COM
PEELED to make who takes office as
member of the Council. Committee
work takes a good share of his time
and hundred things are constantly
coming up to take his mind off his
own work. That being the case there
could be no valid objection to paying
a good man moderate salary for the
time he devotes to the business of the
city, but the principal objection to the
is necessary under any payment plan
to make the salaries equal all around
and permit the man who is in Office
simply for what he can get out of it,
and who cares nothing for the inter
ests of the city, so long as he gets his
rake off, to draw an equal salary with

salary would simply increase the

salary plan would increase the stand.

Gil, and if it is not going to do that
there is no use in paying salaries, for
under the present system there is
never any lack of candidates for Office.
However, if the aldermen are sincere
in their belief that they are entitled to
pay, let them go ahead and redistrict
the city into ten wards, reduce the
representation in the Council to an
alderman for each ward and give the
plan trial. If it does not show good
results it is always possible to cut off
the salaries, and to good many peo-

distinct advantage to have the num-

bilt gave Michigan hard fight. as was expected
but luck as usual was against the Southern eleven
Virginia Military Institute continued its good work
and rolled UP A points against Roanoke. Georgia
Technical defeated the University of Georgia in a.
hard fought game.
Although Virginia defeated Il was due 70
the Nrginans crippled and substitute team rather
than any unusual strength on Sewanoes part and
the lesson taught by the game is one that Vir-
ginias football authorities should profit by; they
should now realize that team can play four
games against would-be Southern champions whose
sole object is 10 defeat Virginia, as many weeks
Bitter experience IN tho past should have taught
Virginia S managers this lesson. But they calmly
ignore it and suffer the next year in consequence
Virginia should easily defeat Georgetown on the
10Th, and thus wind up season that has been until
Saturday entirely successful II n game could be
arranged between Vanderbilt and Virginia on No

decided without doubt. As il now stands Van

two first named teams doubtless both stronger
than Clemson. and while Il would require a game
to decide between Vanderbilt and Virginia, Il would
appear that the former IS slightly tho stronger of
