Dose of Thier Own Me dicine.

Brigham Roberts, polygamist
Democrat was elected to the Fiji
ty-Sixth Congress, but by a vote
of 304 to 30 was not allowed a
seat. The majority of the then
Democratic members voting
with the Republicans to unseat
him. The charge was against
Roberts morals. Taking this
case as precedent, Representa-
tive Macon, of Arkansas will OBJ
iect to Caleb Powers being sworn
into office. His contention will!
be that Powers has four times
and every time he was tried, been
convicted Of wilful murder and
was pardoned by a partisan Gov
ernor. This he claims is suffi-
cient to disbar him from the high
position of U. s. Congressman.
Congressman Macon thinks the
guilt of murder is equally as i'm,
moral as polygamy, and feels
sure the unusual circumstances
fully justify Powers impeach-
ment.

interested in the liquor business
that it has found a bunch of hens
that lay more eggs when fed on
distillery slop. The owner of

ON Thin
Arms; Round
Them Out

The girl who frets because her
arms are thin should partake of n
nourishing diet. even though she
may want TO maintain slim fig.
ure. She also should rub into her
arms every night the particular fat
teper she finds most effective
cream skinned from milk, almond
oil or the special brand of cold
cream she buys.
She should put into her evening
frocks sleeves made OF filmy fabric.
which will veil the arms TO the ell
bow Just sufficiently TO disguise
the fact that the arms are lean
without hiding their pretty color.
II the color needs to be improved,
the arms may be treated with cold
cream and powder before the
dance, but every vestige of the cos
metic must be rubbed away before
the dress is put on.
The process OF rubbing should be
undertaken at least three-quarters
of an hour before party time. II
is good plan for the girl whose
arms are too thin and inclined to
look scarlet to put on her long kid
gloves some time before she starts
for the party. to warm the arms and
leave them Of delicate color.
