The famous Wardlaw sisters. now in
prison in New York and New Jersey,
accused Of the murder Of Mrs. Ocey
Snead, are known to some people in
Ocala. The Wardlaws and Sneads were
two Old-time Southern families. who
lived before the war at OglethOrpe. Ga.
Some twenty years ago they removed
to Tennessee, and after being resi-
dents of that state a number Of years,
the three sisters went north. 1t is the
opinion of those who know them that
Mrs. Caroline Martin. mother of the
murdered girl. is the evil genius of
the family. She is woman of strong
will and high intellect, which seems to
have become perverted and dominates
her two sisters, Mrs. Snead and Miss
Wardlaw. The evidence that Mrs.
Ocey Snead was either murdered or
Influenced into suicide is very strong

PRESIDENT At GOLF.
Mr.. Taft's Style Is Most Earnest
When He Plays.
His Drive is Strenuous Performances
"A Laugh invsriabie at the End
Of Each Stroke--Fiis Put
ting Impressive.

Washingt0n.--W When President Taft
plays golf his style is most earnest
when making the play and most non
chalant and deliberate betweeG
strokes. He walks from one drive 70
the other as though he was on a saun-
tering tour. When the president is to
drive of he makes his own tee OF sand.
He does not use the patent little rub
ber tee, nor does he have caddy build
the little mound for him.
Mr.. Taft's theory on this subject Is
that it is good for the general exercise
Of his body and specifically good for
what might be termed his middle west
to stoop down. SO he does 1t.
But the president stoops down in a
way that never will reduce the waist
line. He stands on one foot and ele-
Yates the other in the attitude Of a
man stretching across a billiard table
for long shot. Having placed the
ball on the tee, the president takes a
long, hard look at the course ahead.
E1there is conversation behind him he
turns around and shouts "Fore!" In a
tone that cannot be mistaken.
The presidents swing at the ball on
drive, with a brassie on the fair
green, Is a strenuous performance.
All Of the Taft smile disappears. and
the stern look he assumes would be
shock to the public that has an impress
sion only of the Jolly" Taft. He.sets
his jaw as though about toyveto atariff

bill or defy Aldrich, and swings with
all the force of something more than
300 pounds Of active muscle and bone.
Immediately the stroke is made the
president assumes invariably one atti-
tude-that of anxious expectancy. He
always follows through" on drives
and brassie or iron shots SO his club
comes up over the left shoulder. 1t
remains there while he watches the
course of the ball. his lips slightly
apart and his body bent forward.
When the ball has settled he straight
ems up and laughs.
No one who ever played with the
president missed that laugh at the end
Of his stroke. If the play is "a good one
the presidents laugh is a shout: but
even if it is a drive into a bunker or
off the course, he laughs. Senator
Bourne, Gen. Edwards, Vice-President
Sherman and others who play often
with Mr. Taft have remarked on the
fact that he refuses to lose his temper
1t makes it hard for man who does
get angry and swear, and these three
feel that they have grievance. No
one of them hesitates to express his
opinion of bali that does not go
where he intended to drive 1t, except
when he is playing with the president
Mr.. Taft probably is most impress
sive in his golf game when putting.
His putter is massive piece of wood,
iron and lead. The face that strikes
the ball is broad, corrugated and with
weight behind it. The president does
not smooth the turf in front OF the bali
before putting. He squares himself,
carefully shifting his feet until he is
directly In line with the hole Then he
puts with care. and watches, again.
anxiously the course Of the ball. II it
goes around the cup, instead of into ii,
the president says "Pshaws Then he
laughs, and tries again. That laugh is
the most trying part of being partner
or opponent Of the president at golf.
It gets on the nerves Of man who
wants to swear.

TO HELP THE CARVER

A dinner table should be we'll laid,
we'll lighted, and always afford little
spare room. 1t is better to invite one
guest less than to destroy the comfort
of the whole party. The carving knives
should be put in edge before the dinner
commences, for nothing irritates good
carver or perplexes bad one more than
a knife which refuses to perform its
Office, and there is nothing more annoy
ing to the company than to see the cary
ing-knife dancing to and fro over the
steel, putting teeth on edge" while the
dinner is getting cold and their appe-
tiles are being exhausted by delay The
carver should have plenty of room,
however closely the diners are compelled
to sit together, and, to- my mind, he
should supply the plates according to his
own judgment, instead OF putting the
question TO each guest as to which part
he prefers and then striving to help him,
TO the prejudice Of others present.

cH1LDREN's HOUSE SLIPPERS

Last winter | spent some time III a
family where there were FIVE small chill
dren, and as the father was recovering
from a severe illness, it was necessary
that the house should be kept as quiet
as possible.
Upon my showing astonishment that
so many little ones should make so lit
tie noise, the mother called my atten-
ton to their feet, which seemed to be
shod in little patent leather slippers.
They were, however, made from BLACK
oil-cloth," the kind that resembles table
oil-cloth, but is little heavier. These
slippers were cut like those worn by
men in rubber boots, and were lined
with single-faced eiderdown, which
made them very warm, and being damp
proof. they were perfect house slippers
for the little ones. One yard will make
several pairs. It can be bought as cheap
a. twenty cents yard. but that for fifty
win wear much better.

sun and the wind make a sport of them,
I know of no remedy so good as that OF
prevention, which is to wear wells heavy
enough to protect the face, and long
sleeves and gloves for the hands. Lemon
juice will help remove freckles.
Most of the preparations for removing
freckles contain corrosive sublimate; the
other name for it is bichloride of mer-
curry. Five grains of the bichloride of
mercury to an ounce of water is the
strength generally recommended.
The freckles are coloring matter de-
posted in the deeper layers of the skin,
and in order to remove the superficial
layers of the skin must be destroyed.
This, of course, reddens the skin and
irritates it to a certain extent The
freckles cannot be removed without
doing this.
