Anty Drudge on Washing in a Flat.

Mrs. Apartment the hardest thing to get hot water
here; your not supposed to do any washing in the
rooms. And when do get hot water, it takes so
long to wash that the rooms get awful smelly"
Anty Drudge-"Why don't you use Fels-Naptha? Then
you won't have to use hot water. You will get
through with your wash in jiffy and there' be no
steam to make your rooms offensive"
To women who lives in apartments
the washing of clothes is problem. The
solution is FelS-Naptha soap.
No need of hot water; no boiler, no
washboard. For light washing you don't
even need a waShtub, because the bathtub
or basin will do quite we'll.
All you require is Fels-Naptha, cool
or lukewarm water and place to dry the
clothes.
Say you have a shirtwaist or two, nap
kins, lingerie and other small things, that
you don't have time or don't want to send
out to be washed. You can do much bet
ter at home in this way:
Wet the clothes, soap well with
FelS-Naptha, roll and leave to soak in cool
or lukewarm water for short time. Then
rub lightly, rinse and hang up to dry.
Takes but one-fourth the time and
one-tenth the work of the old way Also
saves the clothes.
Follow directions on the red and green
wrapper.

BOOMING HIS TOWN.
How Young Board of Trade President
 "Made Good" With the People.

How Young Board of Trade President
 "Made Good" With the People.
 Systematic town boosting is fea. ture of American business activity which aims at the general good instead of personal profit. One western towr had board of trade which had slept along for years without doing anything In particular, except eating some food once year at banquet and listeninc 2 to some spread eagle oratory. says tie pittshurg Dispatch. The organiza tier became morbund, and its presidency was an honor no longer sought for. The directors met and gave the place to a young man,of the type i've like to encoura ge." The young man took bis job seriously and went to work. l, wasn't long before he grew an idea of his own.
 Every family that moved to town he spotted. Employment was provided tor the breadwinners where necessary and the new people were made to feel at home. When this personal atten uon had got in its work, a representa-. tive of the board of trade interviewed the head of the new family. This in. terview was incorporated into letter: mimeograph copies were made, put into stamped envelopes and made ready to mall. Then the letters were taken to the newcomer. and he was asked to address them to his friends "back east" The scheme worked like magic. and the population boomed Of that idea many new ones were born. The young man has been several times re elected president of the board of trade. and he can have anything the people of that town can give him.

Negroes Charged With Murder of Charles Abbott at Hampton Are Captured in Louisiana.

Monroe, La, Dec. 29.-Henry and Wilson Pickett, wanted at Hampton, Calhoun county, Ark, for killing Charles Abbott and seriously wound ing F. M. Abbott brothers, IS miles north of Monroe, on the Iron Noun < tain railroad, and for whom there is agreward of $1,100, were arrested early fast night near Wham by Sam Pucett, who later brought the two negroes to town and turned them over to Sheriff Parker. They were dis covered in cabin near Wham by MT. Pucett, who walked in on them be- fore they were aware of his presence. They were so surprised that they made no effort to reach their guns or to make any resistance.
 The negroes had with them the shotgun with which Abbott was kill ed, as we'll as a Winchester rifle A box of shells and two boxes of cart ridges were also taken. They stoutly protested their innocence, and said they were out on a camping hunt
 Mir. Pucett brought the negroes to this city, where they were locked up. When placed in the jail they still said they were innocent. This morn ing, however, after being separated and questioned in different cells, they finally broke down and told all about the horrible murder.
