WOULDN'T MORTGAGE
HOME FOR A PERMIT
PITIFUL STORY OF OLD MAN
TOLD AT CITY HALL
Cripple 6a Years Old, Who Was In-
Iured In Employ of Munich
pality, Unable to Start
Work

A pitifuI case of an old man trying
to make a living against great odds
CAM to the attention of the city Off
cials yesterday when Joseph Kluger
attempted to get a free permit to ped
die small articles on the street.
The only way free permits may be
secured is to get them through the
Associated Charities. The city donates
$25 every month to the Associated
charities to be used exclusively for the
purchase of permits. When the permit
fee is paid the money goes back into
the city treasury. There is no free per-
nit, the courts having ruled the city
had no right to grant permits without
license fees.
Kluger went to the Associated Chari-
ties and stated his case. When he
admitted he had a little three-room
shack on a lot at 1713 South Park ave-
nue. he was told to mortgage his house
and buy his permit from the proceeds.
But Kluger is IS years old, nearly a
cripple and the little house is all he
has. The thought of placing an in
cumbrance on his little property that
he might not be able to meet threw
him into a cold sweat and he wandered
hopelessly back to the city hall, trying
to find some way to get his permit
without mortgage. He was not sue
cessful.
Kluger was a laborer in the employ
of the city's park department until
about nine months ago. While at work
in one of the parks a heavy load fell
on his back and he was injured serious
ly. Doctors fees and medicines used
up all his little savings, and his wife,
who is 70 years old, endeavored to earn
a living for them both by taking in
washing. The injury left Kluger with
a chronic irritation of the spine, and he
is unable to perform any heavy labor.
When he had recovered sufficiently
to keep his feet John Morley, superin-
tendent of the park department, put
him back to work at light jobs, but he
was unable even to do this work. His
back again gave way and now his only
hope of making little living is to
peddle small articles on the streets.

REGISTRATION CLOSES
AT 10 O'CLOCK TONIGHT
City Clerks Office Will Be Open That
Late for Accommodation of
Tardy Ones

Tonight is the last chance Los An
geIes citizens will have to register for
the primary election, November 10. The
city clerk will keep his Office open until
10 O'clock tonight in order to accommo-
date those who wish to register.
Much confusion has resulted from the
general call for registration, and has
made the line in front of the registra-
tion clerk at the city hall much longer
than is necessary. Many citizens be-
lieve they must register again, whether
or not their names are on the great
register. Those who were able to vote
at the last general election are able to
vote at the primary election and all
succeeding elections until the first OF
next year without further registration

KEEPING THE HAIR RIGHT,
Proper Way of Drying and Cleaning
Woman's "Crown of GIory.D

There is never the slightest doubt
as to when the hair is clean, for when
rubbed between forefinger and thumb
1t squeaks little if all dust has been
removed. However great may be the
temptation to dry the tresses over a
radiator or before a register, it must
be resisted, and dried by rubbing with
towels, letting the mass hang loose
at times while resting the arms. The
most attention must be given the
scalp, for the lower will dry itself. If
there is the slightest disposition to
waviness, when dry, only comb
should be used in removing the snarls,
for a brush straightens too much.
No application is better for luster-
less hair than salt.
Rub well into the roots of the hair
at night, then tie up in large hand.
kerchief or wear a nightcap.
Brush out the salt in the morning.
Several applications will show a
marked improvement in the appear.
ance of the hair.
Put q tablespoonful of ammonia
into a basin of tepid water and dip
the brushes down into it until they
are clean. Dry with the bristles down
and they will be like new.

IDEAS FOR ROOM FURNISHINGS.
Some Suggestions That May Be of
Help to Young Housekeepers.

The white muslin curtains, long
ones or sash, are prettier for bed
rooms, and ecru lace are pretty for
living room, sitting room or parlor, as
you may call it, while lace for dining
room and hall windows, upstairs and
down, the colored madras curtains for
a den or library. If in your living
room you should have window seat
you can get three-quarters' length cur
tains, so as not to cut them off,
white iron bed and white chiffoniere,
white chair, etc, and bedspread
made of white dotted muslin lined
with white or some delicate color,
with shams to match, also dresser
scarfs of same material are pretty for
a young girls room. A room fixed up
with yellow and white, with a brass
bed, is pretty for guest chamber. A
white lace spread, lined with yellow
china silk, is pretty for covering for
a brass bed

one-Plece House Froeks.

Women who have to superintetnd or
do much of their housework will be
foolish not to avail themselves of the
fashion for one-piece frocks. They are
excellent for the working hours.
They are narrow, trim, short and
have no undue trimming to rumple and
soil in a days wearing

One can get these buttons with pat

Steamed Apple PUDDING.

Is made with two cupfuls of flour.
four teaspoonfuls of baking powder,
one-half teaspoonful of salt two TABLE
spoonfuls of butter and three-fourths
of cupful of milk. Sift the dry in
gradients, work in the butter, and add
the milk slowly mixing with knife,
and roll out on Toured board. Cut
four apples into eighths; put them in
the middle of the dough, and sprinkle
with sugar. Draw the dough up around
the apples and lift into buttered
mold carefully, so that the apples do
not break through. Cover tightly, and
steam one hour and 40 minutes.

Lonqer Shoulder Seams

1t is said by those who know that
bodices are to be cut more suuarely
across the shoulders, and therefore the
sleeves will be set lower on the ARMS.
This will be accomplished by running
the shoulder seams much longer than
we have had them during the direc-
toire period.
This smacks something of the Sec
ond empire. But everybody is pre-
pared for anything just now.

To squeeze a little with the fingers

yolk in several directions, so as to
allow more vinegar to be absorbed.
