Light summer clothes are more easily
damaged than winter fabrics. That is good
and sufficient reason why they should be
washed with Fels-Naptha in cold or luke
warm water.
In washing with Fels-Naptha there is
no boiling or cooking to wea ken the deli
cate hbres, no hard-rubbing to fray them,
no injurious chemicals to eat holes in them.
But there are other reasons. 1t is far
easier on the woman who does the wash
ing. There is no hard-rubbing, no blister
ing fire, no scalding suds to steam the face
and redden the hands.
Fels-Naptha soap does its work best in
cold or lukewarm water, dissolving the
dirt SO it can be washed away with a-simple
rinsing. Sounds easy and comfortable,
doesn't it? And it is just as easy and COM
Portable as it sounds if you use Fels-Naptha
the Fels-Naptha way.
Follow the directions on

Chadbourne Hall Goods Aroused from
Siumbers by Appearance of peep
ing Tom" on Fire Escape.

MADISON. Wis. April 19.-[ Special.
Mere man" meandering over the fire
escape III Chaabourne hall Thursday
night. created small sized panic among
the goods CHARTERED there, and the facul-
" secret service men are wondering
whether it was attempted burglary or
the appearance of local "Peeping
Tom that caused the uproar.
AS one of the young ladies in the hall
was preparing to retire she was sur
prised to see the form of man on the
fire escape. She gave the alarm and in
n short time the entire student section
was aroused and looking for the intru-
der. y thorough search of the neigh
borhood by scudents, faculty and city
police failed to discover any traces of
the prowler. but the scare was enough
to drive every roomer off the first floor
of tie dormitOry and force the girls
who were unfortunate enough To have
rooms close to the ground to seek quar-
ters for the night with their friends
higher up in the building.
Early Friday morning two providers
We're seen approaching the hall from the
law building. but the watchers who had
been left to Euarc the building, sounded
the alarm too soon and the men escaped.
Several shots were fired after them by
the police with no effect.
The regents of the university will be
asked to provide Il permanent watch for
the grounds in the immediate neighbor-
hood of the womans dormitory.

COIN UNDER MAINMAST.
Ancient Custom Responsible for Valua,
BILE Finds in Old Ships

Custom DEGREES that a gold coin, or
at the very least silver, shall be put un-
der the manmast of each new ship
launched. The coin bears the date of
the year when the vessel is completed, a
fact we'll known to collectors, who keep
an eye on ships that are likely to be
the depository Of numsmatic prizes.
Thus at Liverpool some years back q
derelict Yankee schooner, bought for a
song, yielded an 1904 dollar, the rarest
and most eagerly sought after of all
American coins. 1t sold readily for
1880 $4,000. and would be worth to-
day at least double that sum, for it was
in perfect preservation, having rested in
its cotton wool wad beneath the hollow
stepping" of the mast since the day it
was first placed in position.
Its recovery was the result of fore
sight, and business enterprise, combined,
of course, with special knowledge. A
man passing the worthless hulk on the
day Of the sale noticed the date, 1904,
on her stern and rightly guessed that
she might likely be the bearer of dollar
of that year.
In the same way have been preserved
and recovered many of the ancient silver
Scottish pennies known as ,doits, which
were 50 tiny that twelve of them were
barely equal in value to the penny
sterling. The old Scottish shipbuilders
of the days when these coins were in cir
culation used, with characteristic ma
tonal thriftiness, to put one of them be-
Meath each mast they stepped in
preference to the more valuable groat.
Owing to their small size, however.
combined with their well nigh intinitesi-
NAL value regarded simply as money,
most dots that were in circulation were
speedily lost, leaving those that had
been placed beneath the masts to become
from the collectors point of view of ex-
IRENE value.--Pearson's Weekly.

MY trouble finally got 50 bad I had

loved the coffee and wouldn't believe 1t
could do such damage.
What l needed was to quit coffee
and take nourishment in such form az
my stomach could digest.
Il had read much about Postum,
but never thought it would fit my case
until one day | decided to quit coffee
and give it trial and make sure
about it. SO l got package and care
fully followed the directions.
"Soon l began to get better and was
able to eat carefully selected foods
without the aid of pepsin or other di-
gestants, and 1t was not long before 7

Now l am healthy and sound, can
