If you hired a girl to do the washing.

A woman who uses Fels-Naptha as if it

The directions on the wrapper are plain:
Use Fels-Naptha in cold or lukewarm

and stated that he did not have cent
left in the world. All day he hung
around the police station, evidently
just for company.
Last night he disappeared, and as he
has no money and has left the West
Minister hotel because he could no
longer pay the charges for room and
board, he was rot located by the
police, who want him for witness.
Detective Flammer stated last night
that he hoped to be able to arrest
other members of the swindling gang
within a few days, and he also stated
that the conspiracy was merely a
feature of countrywide swindling
game being carried on by an organized
gang.
Last last night Detectives Chap
man and Home arrested Bud Clai-
borne at the Rosemead ranch, near
Monrovia. and booked him at the
central station ON suspicion. He is
thought to be one of the jockeys who
faxed the race. or another member of
the gang who helped pull off the swim
die on Mitchell. The police, however,
refused to give out any information
about him, except to say that he had
been arrested in connection with the
swindle perpetuated on Mitchell.

AS TO CLOTHES

To dress well is a fine art. and any
one who dresses well is entitled to be
called an artist. Unfortunately the
term "well- dressed" has come to mean.
sometimes, arrayed according to the
latest cry in fashion. or else attired in
garments of prohibitive costliness. 1t
ought to imply the possession and ex-
ercise of good taste on the part of the
wearer of the garments; it should
mean that the costume is becoming.
without regard to whether it is of the
very latest mode and pattern, and
without reference to it's costliness. A
man clad in plain homespun material
may be well dressed; a woman at
tired in silks and laces may be very
badly dressed. No one can be we'll
dressed who violates the canons of
good taste, and if the costume does
not fit the occasion and the circum-
stances, it does not matter how we'll it
fits the wearer.-Philadelph Ledger.

''CABRIOLET" Is A NEW
HAT FOR THE WOMEN
II Resembles a Cab Laden with GAR
den Truck and Is Voted a
Perfect "Dear"

CHICAGO. March 10.-They called it
a Thing of Beauty" a Joy" and
"Dear"-the Cabriolet. 1t is not
taxi. 1t is a hat. The National Asso-
citation of Milliners created it and is
going to talk it up as the most becom-
ing creation of the spring. The cabrio-
let has some OF the characteristics of
the cab family. The facade has the
lines of a taxi, while the rear elevation
looks something like the common or
sea going variety of cab.
The National Association of MllllnefS
has several cabriolets on exhibition in
convention at the Palmer house. Cab
rolets will be decorated with wild flow
ers. fruit and fresh vegetables, corn
tassels and cherries, spinach, carrot
tops and grapes. The association in
this design is supporting the Audubon
society in it's warfare for preservation
of birds.
1t is what is termed conservative
hat" 1t is not half as wide as Merry
Widow, and the hooded cab effect
makes it much more becoming than the
crownless cartwheels now so popular.
The Merry Widow, according to those
in charge of the convention, is to re-
main. So also is the mushroom. If
possible IHey Will D6 hhSIIS w VloulSl
and mushroomier than ever. but that,
the milliners explain, is the last gasp.
The Merry Widow is on her way. She
will be soon in the limbo of forgotten
things with the crinoline, the steel cor
set and other relics of budding civiliza-
ton.
The tendency in hat extremes is to
meet the cabriolet. 1t is small, mod
est, shrinking. 1t represents all that
the mushroom should be and is not. 1t
is the epitome of repressed art in the
world of millinery. Prices are moder-
ate and shrinking, too. With the, full
course of fruits and vegetables. $40 to
$50 If only side order of the trim
minRs be wanted. the hat can be had
for from $40 to $50

why the finger nails should not receive

The PRONUNCIATION of the edict was
followed by two walters making imme-
diate application for treatment-Serath

ros has large hand with spatulated

BROODS OVER ACCIDENT;
ATTEMPTS TO END LIFE
Market EmpIoye Who Unintentionally
Injured Child is Saved
from Death

Brooding over a runaway accident
by which a small child was injured,
and fearing he might lose his position,
f. L. Vincent, 1888 Lawrence street,
employed at the Alaska market on
Mateo street, attempted to commit
suicide yesterday by taking laudanum.
That Vincent did not succeed in
ending his life was due to the ener-
getic work of DR.. ]. L. Jones, 1715
East Fourteenth street, who worked
over the patient for five hours before
he was considered out of danger
Vincent returned from his work
about noon yesterday and purchased
two ounces of laudanum at a drug
store at the corner of Ninth and Law
renee streets. This he took to his room
and swallowed. When Vincent's act
became known the physician was sum-
moned and his prompt appearance
saved the mans life.
