Women Who Wear Well.

It is astonishing how great a change .
few years of married life often make in
the appearance and disposition OF many
women. The freshness, the charm, the
ibrilliance vanish like the bloom from
peach which is rudely handled. The
matron is only dim shadow, a faint echo
of the charming maiden. There are two
reasons for this change, ignorance and
neglect Few young women appreciate
the shock to the system through the
change which comes with marriage and
motherhood. Many neglect to deal with
the unpleasant pelvic drains and weak
nesses which too often come with mar
rage and motherhood, not understanding
shat this secret drain is robbing the cheek
of its freshness and the form of its
fairness.

Plan Many Meetings
Chairman HunSaker opened proceedings
by asking for suggestions as to the form
IN which permanent organization shall
take shape and the committee was made
five on DR.. Haynes motion.
Mr.. Washburn suggested that when
meetings begin that they be held as often
as possible in order to accomplish much
work before the vacation period in June,
when maLy members of the commission
will doubtless be out Of the city.
Mr.. Lissner suggested that some eX-
preston of opinion be given as to the
probable amount of money needed for
preliminary expenses, $1,000 being his idea
as being a fair request.
Some discussion was had as to the pay
of the permanent secretary, whether a
stenographer shall be maintained and
other incidentals such as supplies.
Mr.. Call ventured the personal belief
that as this commission was outside of
the public service the council would per-
haps hesitate about appropriating any
funds in advance to an organization
which will suggest a new charter.
Name Committees Today
Chairman Hunsaker asked for time
until today to decide on the committees
and the members will be notified imme-
diately so that they can formulate a re-
port for next Tuesday.

WOMAN FAIN7S ON
THE WITNESS STAND
SENSATION IN COURT DURING
DIVORCE CASE
Husband Accuses Her of Kissing
Man Who Visited Them and
of Treating Him with
Cruelty

A sensation was created yesterday IN
Judge lanes department of the superior
court during the trial of the divorce SUIT
of Grover C. Harris against Louise har-
ris on the ground of cruelty.
THE defendant, after having answered
not more than half dozen of the ques-
lions asked by her attorney, threw her
arms above her head and with cry OF
main fell from her chair to the floor. The
court Immediately took a recess and the
woman was carried to an open WINDOW,
where friends administered restoratives.
Mrs. Harris had but few minutes
prior to the attack taken the witness
chair, and after stating her name, age
and facts Immediately concerning her
movements following her marriage in
August, 1906, was questioned in regard to
her life with her mother-in-law
"She said she did not want me there
and that Grover did not love me-" said
the witness, and then hesltated. Her face
flushed and she appeared to be choking.
As her attorneys suggested that one Of
the women in the room go to her assist
ance the defendant cried out and fell.
Says She Kissed Him
The husband, in his complaint, accuses
his wife of extreme cruelty, declaring
that on August 81 1906, while Harry l..
at his home his wife repeatedly kissed
Decker, and when he protested she is said
to have told him she would do as she
pleased and said there was always
trouble when the band begins to play"
He says she was with Club Bennett at
three different times all afternoon and at
other times stayed away from home until
a late hour.
May 1 last. he declared, she left him,
saying she would not return, and had
kept her promise. On June a boy was
born which, he says, she refused to let
him see, and he asked the court to give
him a decree of divorce and possession
of the child.
A number of witnesses testified in be-
half of each party to the suit, one being
Mrs. Iaml, who told the plaintiffs at
torney 1t was none Of his business"
when he asked her what work her hus-
band was engaged in. Following another
question with a 1ve-minute display of
her ability to talk her testimony was
stricken out.

Department" This solved the difficulty
temporarily.
At first the police department was APP
pealed to loan enough buttons to equip
the thirty-eight uniforms with the neces-
sary brass and shine, but Chief Kern
thought it best to say nay.
AS the uniforms are made of heavy
goods for outdoors service the office at
taches of the department last night made
a final appeal to the board to be allowed
to wear a fatigue coat indoors, and some
compromise will probably be arrived at
on this point
