RIs. KENTUCKY, FRIDAY, JULY IL. 1912
Thief Invades Dental Offices.

A clever thief yesterday shortly
afternoon profited handsomely when
he invaded the dental Offices of DR..
Harry Mathers and DR.. H. E. Foster,
on Main street. The thief made
away with a lurge quantity of sheet
gold and soldering amounting to al
most one hundred dollars besides
other articles of value
Following their custom the dentists
left their offices open during noon
hour and while they were at dinner
the thief entered and without fear of
being molested accomplished one of
the most daring robberies in the his
tory of the town.
DR.. Mathers reports the loss of
about $4,000 worth of sheet gold and
and soldering, while Dr. Foster lost
about $50. 90 of gold besides one hun
dred teeth which are very costly. AT
the latter's office skleton keys were
used to effect an entrance to the cab
inets where the dental material was
kept.
Yesterday morning it is said that a
stranger made the rounds of the den
tai parlors making inquiry for man
of whom he was in search. This was
done perhaps to get line on the To-
cation of the valuables. An accurate
description is in the hands of the
police and neighboring towns have
been notified to be on the lookout for
him.

plain PetticoatS.

ENTERTAINMENTS OF all kinds are re-
duced to a minimum of material and
even Of trimming this season. Even
the laces are often put on fiat and
thes embroideries follow long, slender
lines so far as possible. Frills, ruirles,
puffs with anything like fullness and
all that go with them are quite out OF
the run.
The slashed petticoat IS the natural
result OF the style, for skirt as mar
row as the plainly fitted petticoat de.
manded this season must have some
remedial feature whereby the living
and moving figure which IS TO wear
1t may go through such necessary
movements as sitting down, standing
up and stepping up on flights OF
stairs or into vehicles, public ara
private. The next step in the eVolu'
ton of scanty, clinging. straight UP
and down styles must be the suodu'
Ing of joints and muscles in living
women so that there will be 40 move
ment whatever. Then stovepipe er-
fects can be run to the limit for ny
ures that have actual dimensions.
If lace is put On with any fullness
at all the fullness IS very scanty ani
the lace is without a suggestion OF
starch or natural dressing.
