FOR THE YOUNG GIRL
SCENTED TOILET PREPARA-
TIONs SHOULD BE AT HAND.
A Variety of Simples Tint are Enlca-
cious-Powdercd Orris Root, Law
ender OH, Sweet Almond Oil, Are
Dressing Table Necessities.

It Is a matter Of wonder that girls
% not have more toilet preparations
on their dressing tables.
For instance, every girl knows
that hard water is ruinous to the
skin, and that which Is soft Is not
always obtanable. Bicarbonate Of
soda will mpraye the quality. and the
addition of little powdered orrls
root will scent the wa'er at the
same time. These powders are mix
Cd In equal quantities, yet one-third
OF the amount of orrls root will be
sufficient to give fragrance. This
compound should be kept In d tin
box or tightly closed glass jar, and
about teaspoonful of 1t added to q
basin of water will be fragrant and
delicious, and handful will perfume
and soften n bath.
Orris root, the Florentine variety,
Is among the most valuable and at
the same time, cheapest of sweet
odors. 1t is never cloying, but the
scent lasts, particularly the root Is
bought in pieces; instead of powder
ed. There is nothing worn or used
that Is not improved by II, for in
stance, n piece in the box of ties. col
lars, or handkerchiefs will scent
them nicely. A piece OF the root may
be put into the hair under the POM
padour roll to impart q delicious fra
grance.
Lavender oil Is another sweet that
should be used more often. In full
strength 1t is most unpleasant, but
diluted with deodorized alcohol 1t
becomes singularly refreshing. 1t
should be bottled and used freely for
cleansing the face or for wlplng over
the flesh after a wash. a drop of
this oil, full strength, added to a tea
spoonful of glycerine and ten tea
spoonfuls of water, forms good
preparation with which to wet un-
ruly locks. without causing them
to be sticky 1t will train them In place
and will not crisp the hair as does
the constant use of water.
Benzcin IN the tinctuce should
have a place on every toilet table.
Ten drops of 1t in a basin of water
is excellent for rinsing the face night
and morning If the complexion is
greasy ten drops may be put to
gill of water and the skin-wiped with
tbs several times a day, letting the
lotion dry on.
Nothing is more softening or nour-
ishng to the skin than sweet almond
oil. It's odor which Is not pleasant,
though inoffensive, may be conceal
ed by adding few drops of oil OF
lavender. 1t may be massaged into
the pores at any time. and when the
hands are being treated the benefic-
ial effect is more rapid II they are
hickly busted with powdered French
chalk and encased in gloves. This
done for several nights will make a
marked difference in the appearance
OF the hands. While not as easy TO
use as cold cream 1t is perfect sub
stitute.

Ups and Downs on the Road.
les easy to drive an automobile
When everything goes 0. X;
When the wind Is fair and the road
is bare,
And the engine IS chpgging away.
IT'S easy to steer the ponderous
thing,
It's easy to start and stop:
But it's hard, say, when she won't
obey,
And the engine refuses to flop.
IT'S easy to drive an automobile
When she's anxious to sail along;
When she thrills to feel the life in
her keel.
And is chugging her highway
song.
IT'S easy to fly down the boulevard
When there's nothing your speed
to mar,
But it's hard to bowl whom a tele-
graph pole
Runs carelessly into your car.

The SCnreCrOW.

Behold the scarecrow; see him stand
Upon the newly planted land;
a figure rag6ed and forlorn.
The silent watcher of the corn.
His dangling legs, his arms spread
wide,
The lone man of the countryside;
UEcouth, the butt or pen and tongue,
Unheralded, unframed, unsung.
TO you, old scarecrow, then this lay,
To cheer you on your lonely way;
Would that all men their whole lives
through
Served some good purpose. cen as
YOU.

Catarrh Cannot be Cured

with LOCAL. APPLICATIONS, as they
cannot reach the seat of the dis
ease. Catarrh is blood or consti-
tutional disease, and in order to
cure 1t you must take internal rem
edles. Halls Catarrh Cure is TAX
en- internally, and acts directly on
The blood and mucous surfaces.
Halls Catarrh Cure is not quack
medicine. 1t was prescribed by
one of the best physicians in this
country for years and is regular
prescription. 1t is composed of the
Dest tonics known, combined with
The blood purifiers, acting directly
On the mucous surfaces. The per-
iect combination of the two ingre-
G'ents is what produces such Won
aerful results in curing Catarrh.

AUTOMOBILE BURNS DURING
TROPIC0 MINSTREL SHOW

The charity minstrel show given Fri
day night at Tropico by local talent
was a great success from every point
of view, winding up with the real
burning UP of the $4,000 touring car be-
longing to r. L. Church of Tropico.
How it happened is what Mr.. Church
and all the Tropicans would like to
know. Church had just finished TAX
Ing his last carload of friends to the
hall and was adjusting his machine,
when the music and talent began to
muse. Church could hear the end lady
crack a joke on Dr. e. f. Tholer's
little red pony and cart with two
wheels and two seats. He heard all
about the puffed rice being pulled up
and Lynch in khaki. The piano
screamed a hot time and the automo-
bile began to burn. 1t did not all go at
once, but keeping time with the piano
slowly consumed, leaving nothing but
the four steel cylinders-a loss of one
touring car at $4,000 and one 25-cent ad-
mission ticket. Total, SCOOPS. No ex-
plosion occurred, and how it caught
fire is mystery. The show, however,
was great, and Church takes his loss
philosophically. believing 1t was a hot
finish to a warm show. A goodly sum
was realized from the entertainment.

SISTERS HOSPITAL HAS
\ ANOTHER FREE CLINIC
DR.. Arnold BurkeIman VIII Treat
Those Suffering with Diseases of
the Eye, Ear, Nose and
Throat

THE work of the free dispensary of
the Sisters hospital was enlarged yes
terday when a weekly free clinic for
diseases of the ear, eye, nose and
throat was begun. DIR. Arnold Burkel-
man, who came here about a year ago
from New York, Is in charge of this
Saturday afternoon clinic, having do
mated his services for the benefit of the
deserving who apply for assistance to
the Sisters of Charity in charge of the
hospital. The clinic opens at l o'clock
and the doctor treats all those who
apply.
This free clinic has been conducted
successfully by the Sisters for several
years in two small cottages on the hos
pital grounds. Many have been assist
ed In this way. The cottages are fitted
up with down-to-date appliances, In
GLIDING facilities for minor surgical
operations, while the more serious sur
gical work Is done in the main hospital.
With the fall opening Of the work at
the Bethlehem institutions an added eff
fort will be made to raise the $4,000
indebtedness under which the institu-
ton is now carried on. The work is in
creasing every year, but just now Rev.
Dana w. Bartlett, who is in charge
of all the work, is badly in need of
funds In order to carry out the work
already started. Unless funds are Sc
cured it will be necessary to decrease
the good work being done.
During the summer the majority of
the departments have been carried on,
including the night schools, the en-
ployment bureau and the playground,
where the children of the different ma
tionalities are taught the pastimes of
the young Americans. Especially has
this line been interesting with the lit
tie Russian children, who do not I'M
derstand the play of the average Amer
lean child.

trial was before Police Justice Rose
Yesterday morning, and a number of
juvenile cases were disposed of.
Isidore's mother, Mrs. B. Forman OF
21S North Bonnie Brae. swore to COM
plants against Gordon and James.
charging them with battery. She de-
clared in her story to the prosecutor
that the two boys had seized Isidore,
tied him to a post, blindfolded him
and beat him.
The boys admitted having dealt a
bit roughly with the member OF the
opposing gang, but declared they did
it in retaliation for the humiliation TO
which one of their friends was sub
jected.
Gee whiz, 1 don't know how many
times they struck me-" said Isidore.
"They beat me with strap. but 1T
hurt so bad that l could not count
the blows"
After hearing the evidence in the
case the justice placed Gordon and
James on probation for three months.
The gang to which the two defend
ants belong numbers eight members,
while the opposing crowd consists of
seventeen. One of their favorite prac-
tices is to catch members of the OPP
posing gang, tie them to a post and
play "burning at the stake" using
strap for the purpose of generating the
heat.
Willie Mochoff and Harry Nichols,
each years of age, were up before
Police Justice Rose in the Juvenile
court yesterday morning. They were
charged with having stolen bathing
suits Henry was so frightened that
he was unable to tell his story. but
Willie had more nerve and told the
court how they secured the bathing
suits at the East Side springs. He
said they went swimming in the Los
Angeles river every evening and they
needed the suits. After promising not
to steal anything more in the future
and Crossing their hearts to die"
they were discharged Both hurried
from the court room as fast as their
legs would carry them. The lesson
probably will have good effect upon
the youngsters.
Russell Sturgess, Cornelius Ballard
ands Paul Gessler were accused Of
throwing rocks at an officer, whose
width almost equaled his height.
"Gee whiz, we would not have hurt
him." said the lads. "He looked so
fat that we wanted to find out what
kind of a noise 1t would make hitting
him in the stomach with rock"
The OFFICER whose dignity WAS at
tackled smiled good-naturedly at the
statement of the boys and the court
mentioned something about the impos-
sibility Of injuring the officer to any
great extent.
After warning the boys not to try
any more experiments of that nature
the justice placed them on probation.

and was fined $50 or the alternative of
thirty days in the city Jail for disturb

The rooming-house proprietors de-
clared Dugan came to their place in an
intoxicated condition. They refused to
rent him a room, and to show his con-
tempt for the place he grabbed two
clock weights and hurled them about
the room. Mrs. German said one OF
the missiles came near her head as it
crashed against the wall.
