A Clever Bookbinder

Of the many professional women who, in addition to their regular work, have taken up and carried out successfully some handicraft, is Miss Julia Marlowe. She has taken the greatest fancy to book binding, and believes that woman should have at least two accomplishments, using one in case the other fails
 At her country place, 'Highmount," in the Catskills, Miss Marlowe has an equipment of bookbinder's tools and ma chinery, so that she can practice the art to her hearts content.
 In relating as to how she happened to a fancy to bookbinding, Miss Marlowe says that being a sufferer from indigestion, her physician ordered her to the little village of Nauheinm, in Germany. It was very dull and lonely. and in wandering about the streets of the village she was attracted to a quaint shop where an old man was at work binding books.
 q became very well acquainted with the old bookbinder during my 10 weeks stay in Nauheinm," says Miss Marlowe, "and every day I took lesson from him in the art beginning with the most arduous work, that of stitching pages. My in struction was all in German, and reaped the language I love so well, and a spen- did foundation for the work 1 am now so much interested in.

Household Helps.

A raw egg swallowed at once after a fishbone has stuck in the throat will usually dislodge it.
 To readily remove the stains of or- dinary writing ink from the hands, rub the spots vigorously with vaseline and then remove it with soft paper After this soap and water will restore the skin to it's original color. Ergo, a pretty jar Of vaseline is useful among the furnish- ings of the writing desk
 To obviate too high a color diet is all ways the first consideration of this vic- tim and spinach purees, as well as water cress and dandelion salads, are believed in by those who wish to look their best and avoid ruining the effect of the deli. cate coloring of their gowns by look of oyer-robustness where their complex ions are concerned.
 Ice water should never be used for cleansing the teeth. II is worse than hot water. Lukewarm is the right tempera- ture. This is grateful for the teeth and gums and .eleanses the roof and sides of the mouth in the best way. The Hun garan practice of rinsing the mouth inn mediately after every meal is an excellent one to follow in privacy. Their unpleas- ant custom of doing it in public is not to be commended

HEFLIN MAY NOT
 BE PROSECUTED

Washington. February 1.-(Special)-It has been thought that Representative J. Thomas Heflin of Alabama may escape prosecution under the indictment pending against him, charging an assault to kill Louis Lundy. March N last, owing to the fact that the principal witness can not be present. This condition is brought about by the marriage last December of Miss Georgia Jeffrey to a Russian prince in Canton, China.
 Miss Jeffry now the Princess Arnheim Gagarin. was the passenger on the car whom MT Hefln had considered insulted by the language used by the negro which ledSto the assault. Miss Jeffry testified before the grand jury but as she is now out of the Jurisdiction and a Russian subject her attendance at a trial could not be secured.
 United States Attorney Banker admits that the absence of this important wit ness will interfere with his plans to call MT Hefln to trial this month but de- nes that the case will be dropped He insists that a trial will be had and an attempt made to prove case against the representative even though the pres ence of the Princess as 6 witness cannot be secured.
 Lundy is absolutely worthless and has been re-arrested half dozen times since the shooting.

HOUSE CONTESTS ARE VERY LIMITED

Washington, February 1.-The policy adopted by the House elections com mittees in the last few years of trying cases on their merits and declining to turn out sitting members on account of politics has resulted in very few being filed with the clerk of the House for the next Congress. Only three men have so far announced they would contest. In the Fifth Virginia district J. NJ. Par sons has filed notice of contest against F. w. Saunders. His case is largely based upon an alleged illegal gerrymand- CT of the district. In the Eighth Iowa district the clerk understands unoffic- ialy that Representative Hepburn will contest the democrat w. V. Jamison, who defeated him at the last election. There is thought to be no ground for contest in this case, but Colonel Hep burns long service in the House and ac- quaintance among the members is thought to give him chance. In the Tenth Massachusetts district a democrat, J. F. O'Connell. will contest the seat of J. M. Calvin. O'Connell alleges in- proper counting of votes. While the time for filings contests has not yet expired there are no other districts in which contests are understood to be planned.

 crate.

Inventors are particularly kind to the housewife, for large proportion of the useful new ideas are developed for use in the home. Here, for instance, is a new ammonia which, instead of being liquid in smashable glass bottle, is a dry powder in a safe tin can. Sprinkled like washing powder In water, this new ammonia will accomplish wonders in spot lessness-so maintain the folk who are promoting it. And best of all, there is no evaporation and an entire absence of the stifiing. staggering fumes which make the liquid ammonia so trying to handle.

Land in Proposed New States.

Washington, February IA discussion of the various grants of land which it is proposed to give to Arizona and New Mexico in the statehood bill took place before the House committee on territor- ies today. Assistant Attorney General Woodruff for the interior department, gave figures concerning the present and possible future value of the lands in question. He declared that the 3,0Oo, 900 acres which it is proposed to give to each of the territories upon becoming states if sold now would bring in the neighborhood of 20 cents acre if buyers could be found. He declared it as his be- lief that these same lands would be worth nearly five dollars an acre within a few years.

Immigration Case Decided.

Washington, February 1.-An important immigration case was decided today by Secretary Straus of the department of commerce and labor. Ethel Wright, a Canadian woman of 25 years. applied for admission to the United States in order that she might enter the nurses home at Chicago to study nursing. In common with other student nurses at the institu- ton she was to be allowed a small com pensation. A special board of inquiry re- jected her application and denied her ad- mission. Miss Wright appealed her case to Secretary Straus and he has directed that she be admitted. Secretary Straus holds that the case in no way comes under the prohibitions of the aliens contract labor law.
