Martinsville. was partially wrecked by

explosion. fastened to the library to find
that room filled with smoke. The story
Of the dynamiting was suppressed until
morning. in order to keep the scene clear
for bloodhounds who followed up tracks
discovered near the house. The dogs could
follow the trail but a short distance. Mr.
Renner said he did not believe the dyna-
miters Intended to kill him. but wished
only to warn him to cease his activity as
the Anti-Saloon Leagues attorney. An
indignation meeting was held at the Meth
odist Church Sunday afternoon and a
resolution asking the county commission

the dynamiters was passed.

that's no joke. Neither is it joke
how the corset has been torturing her

do away with the corset entirely and

agitation against il has begun where
the evils of tight lacing have been most

FATHER AND SON HELD.
Arrest of Counterfeiters Is Caused by
Young Woman Cashier.

Six miles across the sand dunes
from Gary, Ind, a counterfeiters' den
has been uncovered by Federal secret
service operatives. The raid resulted
in the seizure of a complete counter
letters outfit at the home of Ford
FREEDOM and his son, James FREEDOM,
who are under arrest. The FREEDOM
home is a short distance from the home
of Adam Racke. who is known in secret
service circles as the wizard of the
counterfeiters."
Although two molds were found in
the cellar of Racke's home, and it was
reported that he had taught the trade
to the Freedoms, he was not arrested.
He is 6S years old, and has served five
prison terms for counterfeiting. His
home is in Horsford's Park, and he is
the nearest neighbor of the Freedoms.
In spite of Racke's past record and
his many terms behind prison bars,
Captain Thomas I. Porter. head Of the
Federal secret service at Chicago. ex-
pressed implicit faith in the professed
reform of the wizard"
The arrest of Ford and James Pre-
dom was due to Miss Mary O'Brien,
cashier ut the Thirty-ffth stree sta
ton of the South Side Elevated Rail
road, Chicago. II is asserted that they
tried to pass counterfeit half-dollar
at her station. She refused it and tele-
phoned the Stanton avenue police. De.
tective Thomas Mulcahy was sent out
to find the two men and arrested them

detailed TO make a raid on the home

Fashion Notes.

A new notion i'm shoes is patent
leather with tan color tops and pearl
buttons.
1t seems that for day wear one can
not have too many buttons or too much
braid on the cloth or velvet gown.
The pannier is showing itself in the
early modes. Whether it will be drop
ped later or not is hard now to deter
mine.
The tightly fitting sleeve is still mod
ish. but some of the new models have
little upper sleeves given to them, a
great improvement for long, thin arms.

Most Petted Women in the World.

Most Petted Women in the World.
That we are the most INDUCED and
petted women in the world is undoubt-
edly true; it is difficult to see why we
should claim powerful place in the
national life. While the women of 9th
er countries are making and saving.
our women are wasting and spending.
The light-hearted Italian women are
a source of wealth to their country by
their frugality and their not inconsid-
cradle business ability. Their less
light-hearted and less comedy German
sisters are miracles of Woodworking
thrift. No one who has lived in Ger
many can fail TO have observed what
comfortable homes and what substan-
tial meals the German haEsfrau of all
classes conjures from incomes so tiny
that the American can only wonder
how they manage to live at all.
1t is also interesting to observe that
for her success in homemaking the Ger
man woman reaps her reward. The
German husband may seem to us I'M
chivalrous in the minor details of life
he may talk with brutal disparagement
about the female BRAIN but when he
goes out to amuse himself it doesn't
occur TO him TO go alone. He takes
with him his wife and children. That
pathetic person whose husband neglects
her for the society of men. for whom
ear tears flow SO often in this country,
is not found in Germany.
While the poorest class of English
women are poor homemakers. and
while we undoubtedly learned some of
our lessons in inefficient and wasteful
cooking from our English kinswomen.
English women of the upper classes
put us TO shame in the part they play
in the political life of the country.
They have their definite part they are
expected to play in the game of poll
tics. The well educated English
women do not exist who can not talk
intelligently on the political situation.
American women can not; politics
bores them.
1t is. however, in France that woman
has the most power. From the peasant
up she takes a more active part in the
affairs of her country than do the
women Of any other land. The pros
perity of France is builded on the
amazing thrift of French women. She
combines with this thrift supreme
talent for hOme-making. Housekeep-
ing does not give her nervous prostra-
ton. and the brisk cheerfulness of all
French women is the one thing that
notably strikes the traveller i'm France,
whether he comes from America, Ger
many or England. The French woman's
business ability is pre-eminent. With
her thrift. gayety and business ability
1t is not surprising that she wields the
power that she does.-Appleton's Mag
azine.

Worrying is simply Il habit. 1t Is
also very foolish habit. 1t cannot be
cured by good resolutions nor by talk
ing about il. The best cure is to keep
busy. AS Satan always finds some
work for idle hands to do so the idle
mind will always find plenty of time
to worry over the cares and perplexi-
ties of life. The health side of this
hint is. that worry impairs digestion,
destroys mental poise. and ruins good
temper. And no one can be physically
healthy and happy who cultivates the
habit of worrying.
