Plraoy in China.

Piracy In China is no new thing In
the waters around Hongkong. As long
ago as the thirteenth century the ISL
and OF Honglfong was a piratical
stronghold, and for centuries the
Chinese Government was unable TO
drive the sea hobbers out. All craft
passing what IS now Hongkong har-
Dor were compelled to pay tribute.
The higher elevations Of the island
served as lookout stations and no
boat that approached was permitted
to leave until 1t had paid toll.

TO COMPOUND COLD CREAM
Recipe for Most Valuable Toilet Prep
aration Which Can Be Made
at Home.

To make sure of getting cold
cream in which there are no animal
oils many women like to compound
their own massage creams.
They often fail to get results from
a good recipe by not understanding
the art Of compounding. All cold
creams are made in the same way.
The fatty substances are put in a
double boiler and melted, stirring
constantly. When all are melted turn
out in bowl and stir. scraping down
from sides.
The chief trouble comes. in adding
the extracts and astringents, which
must be added gradually when the
fatty base is partially cold. Add first
any perfumed water, drop by drop,
beating constantly with a silver fork;
then add tinctures or extracts last of
all. These go in drop by drop also.
A fiat wire egg beaten can be used
successfully when large amount of
the mixture is being pade up and one
woman swears by a mayonnaise mixer
for compQunding her toilet creams.
Here Is recipe that can be used
freely without fear of becoming beard
ed or fuzzy: Eight tablespoonfuls
each of almond oil and rosewater, two
tablespoonful each of white wax and
spermaceti, a teaspoonful Of tincture
of benzoin.
Melt the oil, then add the wax and
spermaceti, and when nearly cold from
beating add the rosewater, drop by
drop, then the benzoin.
Discarded cheese Jars Of porcelain
are nice to pack this cream in to
stiffen. Keep in cool place. Put in
small Jars so that in use 1t does not
get germ filled by constant opening.

LAWYER BENTLEY
WIDELY KNOWN FORMER RESI-.

WITH LARCENY
mi mining STOCK deal
Leader in Politics, Heavy Investor and
Booster, Closes a Career Of
Honor and Activity IN
der a Cloud

Milbank-L. B. Bentley, formerly
of this place, but now Of Mime
apolis, has been arrested there on
a charge of larceny in connection
with sales of mining stocks and Is
held in bonds of $4,000.
Six years ago Lawyer Bentley Of
Milbank, was about the best known
man in South Dakota professionally
and politically, was a leader in his
part of the state and at one time a
candidate for congress. While Grant
county was solid stand-pat county,
Bentley had such personal pull that
he turned in clear majority for
out men for county Offices who were
not previously known outside of their
own neighborhoods and elected them
to Office, running the whole political
game to suit himself.
But the law and politics were too
slow for him. He must reach out for
larger game. He branched out into
the land business and did this in the
same "big" way he did everything
else.
He gathered together large num-
Der of landseekers bound for Canada
At Minneapolis he dined and wined
them at the leading hotel and this
over he hired special car to take
them on their journey to the north
He sold thousands of acres Of land
and consequently made bunch" OF
money. He brought it to Milbank to
spend. He purchased several lots on
Main street and started up fine store
buildings. He built fine opera house
for the city, which was needed badly.
The dedication, November, 1905, was a
most elaborate affair and Bentley was
lauded to the skies for the good work
he was doing. Four more fine brick
buildings were erected during that
year and several old buildings were
purchased and rebuilt. Bentley own
ed half of Main street. His income
from these placed him on easy street.
Still Bentley was not satisfied. He
must seek larger flelds-his friends
advised him to stay home and take
care of his interests. He built fine
theater in California. He then came
east to Minneapolis and entered the
mining field. He sold stock in the
mine. Dividends were said to be paid
regularly and people bought easily.
The transactions were large. His
friends said the end was in sight.
And in the meantime-all of Bent
ley's property was attached by a bank
for money he had borrowed and could
not pay.
His me residence was locked up
the doors barred. Everybody jumped
at Bentley His arrest at Minneapolis
adds another chapter.

and they conceal the top of the hat
almost entirely.
An example of what may be done
with velvet hat, having wide brim
and small crown, is shown here. Two
lengths of velvet, in two colors, each
three-fourths of yard long, are
Stirred on silk thread at each end.
The thread matches the velvet in col
or and there are four rows of shirring.
A lining of crinoline supports each
piece. They are then mounted on the
shape as shown In the picture and
sewed down securely to it with
stitches as nearly invisible as posi-
BILE.
An ornament and fancy feather,
or ostrich plumes If preferred, make a
charming finish. This Is matter OF
choice with the wearer.
The home milliner should find no
difficulty in remodeling her last years
