ANY girl with certain amount OF taste
could make different sets OF slipper or
naments from spoils gained by raiding the
remnant boxes seen on the counters and so
make changes. though she possessed only
one pair OF evening slippers.
One set could be two prim looking roses
made from duh silver tissue another could
be a rosette OF tulIe for each slipper.

a third could be butterflies OF gauze. the
wings and body picked out with mock
jewels. while a fourth could be dainty rib
bon drawn through tiny buckles.
am often asked for a substance that

Among the attractive and, at the same

WHY IS A WIDOW?

Washington, April What consti- tutes a widow?
 An answer to this question may be expected from the supreme court of the United States soon. On Monday the court will listen to learned counsel argue the point.
 If Catherine Craig of Jefferson coun- ty. Pennsylvania, is the widow of Adam II. Schlemmer, deceased, she stands to win a judgment against the Buffalo, Rochester and Pittsburg Rail- way company as the result of Schlem- mer's death while working on the rail- road in 1900. If she ceased to be Schlimmers widow when she married Patrick Craig, some time after her suit against the railroad was begun, it Is claimed that she cannot press her suit for loss of support.
 Congressman M. E. Olmstead for the railway filed a brief today in the su- preme court in which he argued a woman is not a mans widow if she is another mans wife.

COMPLETELY CURED OF

 since l wrote you; for this delinquecy l
 beg your pardon. I wish to tell you that
 I am still free from morphia, I am in fine health and weight 160 pounds. Never was such boon granted to suffering drug users as your treatment. Tt is the same kind of blessing to them as the one God sent to the sinner when he
 gave them Jesus Christ, for they both pull the fallen humanity from the mire
 of degradation Your mission is as great as St. Johns; he came to prepare the
 minds of people to receive his master; your treatment prepares the body and
 mind of the poor, sinful stricken drug
 user to enjoy the gifts that God gave
 to all mankind and then to further his
 soul to the kingdom that Christ has lprepared for those that love him. | I am not going to try to express my I full gratitude, for I cannot, but I ask
 God to help you in your life's mission,
 and for every unfortunate drug user
 that is helped from the chains of King ' Morphin, may God, in his infinite love
 and mercy add one more star to your
 crown.
 \ I am cured. completely cured, and I lnever crave morphine, but on the other hand I simply tetest the very name of lit If you have any of the little folders
 please send me a few Enclosed you will

 I will be Al years old the 11th of June,
 Since my cure I have gained my usual
 vitality and strength and am the same
 heavy muscled athleke that used to be before I used morphia.
 With best wishes for your continued success, I remain, your ardent admirer, FRANCIS M. COX. Detroit, Texas, March 12, 1911 Lock
