ty, testifying before the house Of rep
resentatives bribery investigating COM
mittee today, said that Simon Cronin
of Akron, q telephone attendant In the
house for ten years, had offered him

merger bill, which passed the house
month ago.
Pears was averse to giving the name
until threatened with fine for con-
tempt.
Cronin, when informed Of Pears
testimony, denied the charge.
Representative Frank Wood of Me-
dina county testified that Representa-
tive Meyer Gelerd of Lucas county,
during a conversation, had given him
the impression that efforts had been
made to bribe him to support the bill.
He also testified that Representative
Fred Moritz of Cuyahoga county had
told him he had been offered $50 to
vote against reconsideration Of the Ell

To these men, Woods said, he had
given the advice that If they could not
prove the offers had been made, and

who said Elson told him Cyrus Huling,
of Columbus attorney, had given him
aid in drawing the bill.
Huling was active for several years
in independent telephone interests. The
connection of his name with them

A woman's simple faith in a man
is evidenced in a recent murder trial.
Accused by the world as a murderer,
held up as a hunted and hooted thing
in the community in which he lives,
and his wrists In irons, his wife re-
mains faithful and loving. anxiously
awaiting the vindication, for which
she is working,
She Is a plain woman with a plain
face and high cheek bones. Her
hands are red and knotted with the
toll of years. Her locks are gray and
scarce. When interviewed about the
erring husband, she was found be-
fore a washtub, and in the kitchen, a
pot of boiling cabbage steamed and
sputtered. She forgot the washtub;
she forgot the cabbage, because she
was talking of him. She did not
realize that her 40 odd years were
against her in the mind of this DASH
ing young fellow who is in captivity,
but who she believed loved her. The
fact that the newspapers said he was
like the sailor "who had kissed a
girl under every sun did not worry
her. She refused to believe him un-
true. "It has always been this way"
she said, lever since we We're married

not mean any harm, though you see.
he is friendly with everybody" AT
the conclusion of the interview, she
rushed to the kitchen, and while the
cabbage boiled and sputtered, she
bent over the washtub and thought OF
him and of the reunion that will take
place when he Is free. The fact that
his name is blasted before the COM
munity does not disturb her, for she
believes in him as she did the day
they were married.
In the blackest depths or despair
in the most forbidding and direst
gloom, there is always a CLEAN OF
light and hope. That gleam is love
and faith, which exists even in hell.

same case. There is usually another

Who Smokes
BY ELLA WHEELER WILCOX.

smoking women" does not refer
to the present fashion in many parts
of the world.
only a few years ago we read of
the Manila women smoking their ci-
gars and felt a certain amount of dis
gust. 1t would probably excite some
measure of disgust TO see a woman
smoking a cigar today, but the wo-
man with her cigarette has become a
commonplace object in all European
centers and in many American cities
and villages.
At all fashionable dinners and
smart functions, in the dining rooms
and lobbies of almost all European
hotels, especially those in England,
one sees the woman and her cigarette.
In nearly every modern play she is in
troduced.
A great many American husbands
have been known to encourage their
wives. in acquiring the habit. They
think it "cozy and companionabIe," !"
yet several of these husbands have
been known to regard with anxiety
the increasing power of thehabit over
lIitlT WIVES.
1t is of course, the best grade Of ci-
garettes which is used by women. No
one but the extremist will assert that
the habit is absolutely destructive to
health and morals. But no one who
has a real understanding OF womanly
| charm, of pure daintiness, and fine
ideals of life can advocate cigarette
smoking for the sex.

About The School

There have been from twenty to forty natives working in con nection with the new buildings and about half of these are former pupils of the school. It is a noticeable fact that most of the latter are working as trades men or helpers to tradesmen while the others are chiefly en- ployed in work of excavation.

The revised plans for the laundry-heating plant building have been received by MT. Maclaren, the superintendent of construction, and excavation for the boiler room and foundations will begin shortly.
