Persisted LIKE RATS
WHEN THE TITANIC SANK
Sixty Kitchen Employees Were Barred
from Decks, a London Witness
Saws

London, June Sixty kitchen en-
ployes aboard the Titanic drowned like
rats in trap when the liner went down,
because stewards blocked their way
when they attempted to ascend to the
boat deck, according to Paul Mauge, sec
rotary to the chef of the sunken liner,
who yesterday was witness in the
Board of Trades Titanic inquiry.
Mauge said the kitchen workers were
assembled on the third-class deck after
the Titanic struck the ice, and might
have had chance for their lives had
they been allowed to go to the upper
decks.
He explained his escape by saying he
wore no uniform, but was dressed like
any passenger.

Bowels are Basis
 of Child Heal

The careful mother, who watches closely the physical peculiarities of her children, will soon discover that the most important thing in connec- tion with a chid's constant good health is to keep the bowels regularly open. Sluggish bowels will be fol- lowed by loss of appetite, restlessness during sleep, irritabitlity and dozen and one similar evidences of physi- cal disorder.
 At the first sign of such disorder give the child a teaspoonful of Dr. CaldwelIs Syrup Pepsin at night on retiring and repeat the dose the fol- lowing night if necessary-more than that will scarcely be needed. You will find that the child will recover it's accustomed good spirits at once and will eat an dsleep normally.

However, it is certain that strenuous effort will be made to secure his commit tation to life Imprisonment, or even less, on the ground that important new evidence has been discovered tending to corroborate his claim that he was not with the crowd of negroes that killed Constable Vital Archard, near Dumas, and had no previous knowledge of the crime.

copying induces her to return to her old hatits, this outcry will not have been raised in vain. How often used il 10 be said of the Parisienne that it was not the material, but the cut and the attention to minute detail, which set off her figure and made her look so chic"
 Difference of Opinion.
 1 cannot say that l am of the same opinion as Dr. Francke as regards the effect of tight skirts upon the female form. He forgets that women do not wear their tight garments all the time, but wear flowing robes in the house, which more than allow for absolute freedom of the limbs. Then he for gets that the modern woman cycles rides, rows, and plays tennis=eXer- cises which develop her muscles and keep her fit, and for these sports she wears a suitable costume.
 If is only when she is moving in society that she wears fashionable garb and if tight skirts are the fash ion. then she wears tight skirts-but day. In the evening she again dons flowing robes, if she is spending her evening at nome, or sweeping trains, if she is dining out. 1t is true We have had many examples of how dan gerous the tight skirt might Ee when getting in or out of railway trains or motor ears, but now that the side is split up or the feet are allowed more liberty through the addition of extra pleats, even this danger is a very small one.
 But Dr. Francke need have no fear fashion was ever tickle, and while lie is talking about her evil tendencies, she has already taken another form. Are not skirts wider than they were last year?
 NJ. Paul POiret calls the opinion of Dr. Francke ridiculous and far-fetch- ed. First he says, women have no tendency 10 become knock-kneed in their tight skirts, because, as a mat ter of fact, they have plenty of room for their knees in them. Were wo- men knock-kneed when they wore crinolines? And yet they had just such restrictions in their movements, as can be easily demonstrated by don ming one of those old-fashioned dress es. which are cumbersome and prevent all nasty or free movements in spite of their width"

Weigel. whose contract for the hire of convicts expired January l. has called attention to many fragrant abuses which the governor proposes to correct. At the expiration of Wei gel contract, he retained such prls- oners whose terms had not eXplfea. There were ten in all, and they had from 75 to 61S days yet to serve. me governor announces his intention of following the same course in every county where he finds similar condl- tions existing.
 "The practice of sending men to the county farm for such long terms should be stopped and l intend to eA- ercise nv right to turn the men loose if I find that abuses exist declared the governor. Tt is certainly not right that a man convicted of a mis- demeanor, such as petit larceny or assault and battery, should be sent to the convict farm for two or three years. while men convicted of killing their fellow-men escape with lighter penalties. Prisoners should not ce sent to the county farm for longer than one year, and preferably the term should not exceed six months.
