CHICAGO'S MARATHON
CAPTURED BY CORY
Friends Claim His Time Would Lower

[By Associated Press.l

CHICAGO, Sept. 19.--The annual
Marathon race today was won by A.
l.. Corey of Chicago, unattached, in
the official time of two hours fifty
seven minutes and thirty seconds. One
minute behind him came Sydney Hatch
of the Illinois A. c., while the third
man was j. A. Feltes of Chicago, I'M
attached Feltes' time was three hours
twelve minutes.
Corey, his friends state, might have
edualed or lowered the record for the
course two hours forty-one and three
fifths seconds, had he not been troubled
by a pebble which got into his shoe
some miles north of the city. He main
tanned his lead for some time even
with this handicap, but finally had to
stop and remove the annoyance.
Thereafter his foot seemed sore and
several times he allowed his lead to de-
crease while he put linament on it.

HINTS ON CLEANING IVORY.
Much Care Necessary to Prevent
Spelling Its Tone.

Ivory toilet articles are quite as
fashionable as silver ones now, and
the fact that they are more difficult
to clean in no way detracts from their
popularity. 1t is not easy to remove
stains from the mellow, creamy ma
terial without spelling it's tone. Some
useful hints ON cleaning ivory are
given herewith: When the stains are
very slight and do not seem to be
permanent, though they cannot be
rubbed off with a dry cloth, wash the
ivory thoroughly in warm water and
soap suds and then, without drying
it on cloth, place it in the bright
sunlight for few minutes. This ex-
posture will usually remove the stains.
After they have disappeared wash the
ivory again in soap and water, rinse it
thoroughly and dry carefully with
soft cloth
Where the stains do not disappear
entirely after contact with the suns
rays the ivory should be washed again
in soap and water, then rinsed in clear
water to which a little lemon juice
has been added. Care must be taken
to have the temperature of the water
right, as too great heat will injure the
ivory.
Very dark discolorations require the
services of an expert to remove,
though one may be fairly successful
by rubbing oxalic acid solution, not
too strong, and applying this to the
dark spots or streaks with a brush
Afterward wash the ivory well in clear
warm water and dry with absorbent
cotton or a soft cloth and then leave
in the sunshine or in warm place to
bleach.
The acid Of lemon Is not harmful
to the most delicate piece of ivory; in
fact the juice of a lemon can be ap-
piled with mixture of cleansing pow
der or whiting directly to the ivory
without running any risk of spelling
its tone or texture. 1t should, how
ever, be removed quickly and the
ivory thoroughly cleansed afterward
with plenty of warm water. Cabinet
pieces that become discolored can be
cleaned in this way and will be great
ly improved in color and appearance.

FOR CLEAR, vELVETY SKIN.
Plenty Of Fresh Air and a Good Mas
sage Cream Are Essential.

Good teeth, sparkling eyes and beau
tiful hair are all essential to personal
attractiveness, but probably the great
est charm of woman is a clear, fresh,
velvety skin. Queens have paid for
tunes to attain this one charm alone.
But cosmetics and artificial beauti-
fiers won't accomplish what aiding ma
ture will. A muddy or otherwise I'M
fortunate complexion is best overcome
by the following plan. Give up greasy
foods and heavy pastries. Take daily
exercise out of doors, or when driving
fill the lungs with good blood-purifying
air. Breathe deep, hold the breath
and then eXhale forcibly. This expels
the stagnant air in recesses of the
lungs. 1t is this stagnant air that lit
orally poisons the system, making bad
blood which in time shows on the face.
Also assist nature by external treat
ment Of the face. Nearly every mod
ern woman uses some face or cleans
ing cream. This is more true in the
cities than the country, but women in
smaller communities are beginning to
realize the necessity of face cream,
House dust in the country is almost
as bad for the complexion as Is the,
dust of big city. Notice a sunbeam
coming through the window into q
room. You will see thousands OF small
dust particles floating in the air,
These get into the pores and work
havoc unless ones eliminating system
is unusual. A cleansing or massage
cream works down into the pores and
brings out these dust particles which
soap and water cannot reach. More
over, the massaging of the face is In
itself beneficial, as it starts the red
blood coursing to the cheeks. Care
must be used to select a reliable mas
sage cream. A good massage cream
plus plenty of fresh air and proper
diet will work wonders in preserving
and identifying ones complexion
woman's dearest charm.

When Collar Has Made a Line.

When the line of the collar is seen
on the neck and will not come off, 1t
is time to do something definite to re-
move the discoloration of the skin.
It is often effective to apply perox-
ide of hydrogen with bit of absorb
ent cotton. Dab it on at night after a
most thorough washing of the neck in
hot soap suds. Leave it on all night
and scrub again thoroughly with hot
soap suds in the morning, rinsing off
with cold water. Repeat this every
night till the stain or line disappears.

PLANNING cirrs Winter Dress

When buying the material for your
girls winter school dresses buy
enough material to make boomers to
match each dress. When made full
the boomers will furnish enough body
so that petticoats will not have to be
worn This in itself is an economy, as
1t will save the laundry and will save
the wear and tear on the underclotfes.
The boomers also provide a great
deal of warmth and allow more free
dom of movement than do petticoats.

Robert Louis Stevenson would have
woven thrilling romance. The young
bandit himself made a dash at both
these literary bids for fame, but fate
was closing in on him too fast. A
man who really means business about
killing others and then shakes hands
with death itself can better express
himself In deeds than in poetic num-
bers.
The strange, inscrutable, battling
truth remains that this same despera-
DO was of the stuff that genuine he
roes are made of-that his very
crimes traced their inception to qua
hties which, when developed instead
of perverted, cause other men to be
honored, knighted, sainted and sung
about. He had heart, courage, graft
tude, loyalty to friends and chivalry
toward women. His debut as bandit
was made out of boyish admiration
for the train-robber who had taken his
part against bully. His last thought
was to provide for the wife whose
dove and trust he had never for
feited.

SUSTAINED ONLY ONE DEFEAT
SUCCESS OF NATIONAL GUARD
BASKET BALL TEAM.

The basket ball team Of Company E.
list Regiment, Of the National Guard
Athletic Association claims to have made
the best record any basket ball team
ever made in the District. In the past
season these boys played thirty-two
games, in which they met defeat only
once. and this was against the strong
Y. NJ. c. A. team. They were outweigh
ed in this game nearly forty pounds to
the man.
Joe Turner. formerly Of the Corcoran
Cadets. organized and coached the team.

into one of the fastest teams Washing

was serious enough to cause the boys
retirement for the remainder of the sea-
son. Great trouble was experienced in
obtaining man to fill his place, but
they finally secured George Bontz, who
made good from the start. He scored
nine goals in his initial appearance
against the Alexandria Athletic Club. II
might be said that his experience as an
acrobat had much to do with his skillful
playing. He is one Of the Del Ray troupe
OF the National Guard. Waymond. the
only substitute carried by the team. gives
promise by his good playing in the past
season that. with plenty Of work, he will
round into the ranks of the regulars.
In the majority of their games the boys
have been outweighed at least twenty
pounds to the man. but by their fine
playing they handed defeat to some OF
the fastest aggregations in the District.
Manager Turner is highly pleased with
the success Of the team, and Is now
making preparations for banquet, to
come of some time in the near future.
