The eyebrows should receive as much
attention as any other part of the body.
With a little cold cream on the finger
tips. rub the eyebrows gently, so as to
remove any possible dandruf, since
they often have a little in them. Then
wash them with a solution made OF
water and a little alcohol. First brusl,
them straight up toward the hair and
then straight down, and the line will be
thin and well shaped. If constantly
treated in this manner the eyebrows
will soon be a beautiful shape. The
brushing up of the outward tip gives a
coquettish expression to some faces.

For the Throat.

The woman whose throat has a trick

arises and remaining a trif1e hoarse and
sore for the. next hour should try a cold
compress. 1t is made out Of a wide
handkerchief or a small towel, folded
over n over and wrung out in cold
water. This is bound around the throat
for a few moments. One should be
careful to put a piece of flannel or a
dry towel over the wet one. More harm
than GOOD is done when one neglects
the dry compress, as the air striking
the wet cloth makes the throat worse
than before. Another good remedy is
to lean over the spigots of the bathtub
and slap cold, then hot water over the
chest and throat with the hands. The
hot and cold should alternate for about
five minutes n then the throat be
briskly rubbed with a dry, rough towel.

THEY REsciNDED THEIR VERDICT

Chicago Tribune.--Shrove Tuesday
was a joyous day in the little COM
mune of Vault-les-Francois in France.
The municipal council had organized
a competition open to all the husbands
Of the village with a fine fat pig as
prize, to be won by the man who could
prove that he was master at home and
that his wife, without hesitation or
murmur, bowed down before his will.
The number, Of entries was great
and great was the embarrassment of
the jury, who after long deliberation
eventually decided that one Matthias
had made out the best case. Duly pro-
claimed the first husband in Vault-les-
Francois, Matthias put his pig into a
sack which he brought for that pur-
pose and started home. But the prize
pig tore the sack open before Matthias
had gone many yards and escaped,
seeking refuge under the platform
where the jury were still sitting.
Couldn't you have brought a
stronger sack?" said the mayor to
Matthias as he tried to recapture his
prize. ~. a..
. 81 wanted to bring the new one, =
replied Matthias, 'but my COMPOUNDED
wife wouldn't let me-"
At these words the jury rose as one
man and rescinded their verdict.

SENATOR 4MooN,s Bill,

Senator E. G. Moon, Wapello coul-'
TVS representative in the upper house
Of the legislature, has introduced d
bill which provides that saloons shall
be limited in Iowa towns and cities TO
one for e.:ch 1000 population, and also
provides that a saloon keeper shall
be barred from business for five years
and that his permit shall be cancelled
If he is found guilty of any violati IN
of the liquor laws. Senator Noon
also voted in favor of the passage Of
the Bennett bill, which provides that
only qualified electors shall be per-
mitted to own and operate saloons,
that brewers, distillers or refiners
shall not be permitted to own or oper-
ate saloons, nor OWL the premises
on which the saloons are located, nor
own the fixtures or furniture or any
interest in them.
These bills both seek to correct the
abuses in the liquor business. They
are both worthy measures and should
be enacted into law Senator Moon
Is deserving of commentator for
fathering the one measure and sup
porting the other.

CAPT. CYRUS SHAW is DEAD
A Veteran in State Masonic Lodge
Circles-state Wide in his Prom

Marshalltown. March 1S.-Captain
Cyrus II. Shaw. past grand senior
warden Of the Iowa Masonic grand
lodge, for thirteen years master Of
Marshall lodge of this city, founder of
the Masonic lodge at Gilman, Ia. which
bears his name, and district lecturer
for the Masonic grand body, died here
as the result of a stroke of paralysis
sustained Saturday. Captain Shaw
never regained consciousness after he
was stricken.
Captain Shaw was one. Of the Oldest
and most prominent Masons in this
city and was widely known In Masonic
circles throughout the state. He rails
ed company q, Fourth Iowa infantry,
during the civil war and headed the
company in the service. After having
served one year as city clerk of Mar
shalltown, 1912, he was a candidate
for second term under the soldiers
preference law and was defeated in
the council. This brought him into
state wide prominence through his APP
peal to the supreme court which he
won over the verdict in the lower
court. The city then appealed to the
United States supreme court, but a
decision has never been given.
There is general regret in Masonic
circles that Captain Shaw was not
spared to witness the realization of
his cherished hope to see a new Ma
sonic temple erected in Marshalltown.
He was secretary Of the Masonic
Temple association, which has just
finished the work Of financing the en-

UPHOLD THE DIGNITY OF THE
LAW.

Marshalltown Times-Republican =
The hurried flight from place to
place by scheriffs having the negro
Junkin in charge Is not consistent with
the dignity and majesty of the law. No
doubt most of those lodgings and fit
tings arise from the ready credence
given by officers to rumors of gather
ing mobs and the desire to be on the
safe side. Perhaps a modicum Of timid-
ity Is mixed with caution. Possibly
the sheriff wonders whether or not he
would kill ordinarily decent men to
save the life of negro who deserves
to die. So the state is forced to see its
constituted officers chasing prisoner
about from place to place in the effort
to keep a prisoner under the laws
away from the vengeance of an as
sumed mob. 1t is not pleasant Or
prideful sight. 1t IS far beneath proper
respect for law and is an impeach-
ment of Iowa citizenship.
1t is unnecessary, except as an ex-
pedient to avoid the need Of enforcing
law. 1t is a sop to the mob and the
surest way to breed the lawlessness
that ends in mob murder 1t cultivates
contempt for the power Of the state
and accentuates the power and mad
ness of the mob. 1t should be stopped
and stopped at once. There isn't a
county Jail in Iowa where Junkin may
not be kept alive until he dies of old
age by a guard Of dozen determined
men. Knowing this these panic-strick-
en- stampedes with a prisoner in
charge carry their suggestion of
cowardice.
The lodging should stop. If it is
necessary to make stern example, let
it be made. If riot guns and buck
shot must be used to teach respect for
the law there is every reason why
they should be put in use early and be-
fore the mob spirit has made lynching
common in the best commonwealth of
the country. 1t is not question of
the life Of a negro murderer but of the
life of the law. The law must be SUI
preme in iowa.

DEATH THREATENED TO WOMAN

IF you don't tell the Judge in ten

sage. 1t was on the testimony of Mrs

to life Imprisonment in the peniten-
tiary, for the robbery of her home
some weeks ago.
Mrs. German was alone in the
house at the time the note was dis

Johnston, however, and appraised him
