DRESS SHIELDS HAVE BEEN
RENDERED OUT OF DATE

An eminent Austrian physician first
announced that offensive perspiration
was the result of an abnormal, UNI
natural condition of the nerves which
control the skin glands. This fact has
since been acknowledged by the medt-
cal fraternity throughout the world,
with the result that liquid prepara-
ton was recently introduced to correct
this distressing condition. 1t is
claimed that Odor-o-no, as the re-
markable new remedy is called. will do
away with the need of dress shields,
which do not protect clothing perfectly
and which are offensive, uncomfort-
able now unnecessary.
Odoro-o-no is said to be a simple an
tiseptic, as harmless as witch hazel,
bay rum or alcohol. 1t penetrates the
skin glands, purifies their secretion,
arrests excessive perspiration, destroys
all body odor, and renders dress shields
unnecessary. Odor-o-no is believed to
be the greatest boon ever offered men
and women afflicted with excessive
respiration of arm pits or feet. Odor-
ONO can be found at

CABINET STUDIES
PLAN TO CAPTURE
PHANTOM BANDITS"
France Appalled, By Grimes
-. of Murderers In
Paris.

PARIS, March 26.-Government and
city combined today to trail the "phan-
tom handits,' whose record of three
murders yesterday has appalled, the ma
tion. The question of capturing or kill
Ing the gang was the chief subject DIS
cussed at todays cabinet conferences
1t was decided that If the steTnest re-
pressive measures We're not adopted
veritabe reign Of terror would result
The chamber of deputies was asked TO
appropriate $4,000 to finance the man
hunt.
The governments plan Is to purcha Sc
eight of the fastest automobiles obtain
able, detail the most expert secret serV-
ice men to the cars and keep them go
ing night and day. The orders will be
to get the bandits alive or dead. The
only instructions will be that the ban
dts must be prevented continuing their
work
Great secrecy regarding their plans is
being maintained by the municipal
authorities. Many of the banking houses
in the city today stationed armed special
officers at their doors and in their cor
ridors. In addition many of the em-
ployes worked with rapid fire pistols
in handy reach. They have lost con-
fidenCe in the ability of the authorities
to protect them.
1t is generally believed the murderous
band will lie low until the cry
aroused by yesterdays crimes has
Quieted down.

LORIMER FOES FEAR
JONES WILL CHANGE
Investigating Committee to Meet
Tomorrow to Decide on
Report.

The possibility that Senator Jones Of
washington will face about on the
lorimer case anl that he will vote in
committee tomorrow to sustain the H.
iinois Senate" was seriously talked
about the Capitol today.
The investigating committee meets to.
morrow 20 vote On report in the
.orimcr case. This fact led to good
deal of talk today about The prospective
action of the committee. Loriner' :
friends are hoping 70 get a 5-to-S report
in hiE favor out of the commit tee. They
can do this if senator Jones shifts
about and the Senator'S who previously
voted with LorimCr stand pat.
The investigating committee consists of
eight Senator's Dillingham;, Gamble
Johnston, Fletcher, Jones, Kern, Ken
yon, and Lea. 1t is considered certain
that Kern, Kenyon, and Lea will oppose
retention of l.orimer. but some doubt
has been felt about Jones and also about
Gamble.
Senator'S figured out today that the
vote on the floor Will be close. In the
last fight, ,Lorimer was seated b. vote
of 46 to. 40. Since that time eleven who
voted in his favor have retired from
the Senate, and five who lined up
against him.
This represents a loss to LCrlmer Of
six votes, so that II members who voted
before maintain the same attitude Lori
mer may possibly lose by a tie vote.
