AND SURE WAY
TO CURE COLDS
Don't Neglect = Cold; Ely's Cream
Balm Will Stop 1t in the
Sneezing Stage.

A cold generally attacks the weak
est part, affecting the eyes and ears
in some and producing nasal catarrh
and throat troubles In others. A
cold is due to Inflammation of the
membrane lining the air passages,
and may be promptly cured with a
little Ely's Cream Balm, which i'm
mdiately relieves the Inflammation
and all the distressing symptoms,
such as sneezing, coughing, running
at the nose and eyes, hoarseness,
sore throat fever and headache. One
reason why this pure, antiseptic
Balm acts so quickly is because it is
applied directly to the tender, sore
surfaces.
Even In severe, chronic cases Of
catarrh, Ely's Cream Balm never
fails to quickly and effectually check
the poisonous discharge which clogs
the head and throat, causing the dis
gushing hawking, splitting and blow
Ing OF the nose. This remedy not
only drives out the disease, but heals
and strengthens the weakened mem
branes, thus ending catarrh.
Catarrh Is a filthy, disgusting dis
ease. Don't put up with it another
day. Get a so cent bottle of Ely's
Cream Balm from your druggist and
see how quickly you will be relieved.
1t is perfectly harmless.

TEND TO DIRECTOlRE MODEL
Suits and Gowns Are All Showing the
Leaning to This Decidedly
Pretty Effect.

Carrying out predictions Of a few
months ago, fashion designers are en-
phasizing with decided success the
directoire model in suits and gowns.
There Is a %jauntiness about the cut,
the lines and trimming that gives just
the charm, the "chlc," as Parisians
say, to a costume. The combination
of materials is most easily carried out,
because Of the cuffs, the lapels and
collar with the vest and patch peck
cts which characterize this style. But
tons play an important part, and the
broad girdle and sash give opportunity
for a color note that will contribute
individuality and character to a gown
or suit.
Generally, the coat has a turned
back collar of satin or cloth. 1t q
be quite fiat or 1t can stand In a high
stock effect, tied up with black ribbon
or velvet, the knot Dr. bow at the side.
Straight lines Of buttons are used,
great emphasis being placed on round
forms Of brilliant bone, or brass balls,
or on ornamental styles of enamel and

There are patch pockets at the hips
Of many directoire coats. Sleeves are
usually long, with ruff1es Of lace at
the lower edge or running up the
outer seam. Tu~rned-back cuffs are al
SO in vogue.
The skirt of the di%rectoire gown
shows increased fullness obtained by
either panniers, draperies Dr. pleats
laid fiat and pressed, SO that the sill
houette Is not daringly modified.
Directoire styles Will insure a beau
ty in dress that will be unusually
general this fall and winter. The
grace, the variety and the opportunity
for using short lengths are too good
to be forgotten in the interesting song
of the styles. Let the interesting chap
ter OF French history be opened again

FIGHTS WILL
OF FATHER
Mrs. Nettie Rowland, Left but
ST, Objects to Probating
of Document.

Alleging that the testator was of un-
sound mind, a petition of appeal from
grant OF probate of the will of the late
william A. B. Perry, of 1S Liberty
street, was filed with the surrogate's
office this morning by Nettie Rowland,
a daughter of the decedent. She, with
her sister, Lottie r. Baxter, were prac-
tically disinherited by the grant OF 81,
because of their unreasonable and
d~isrespectful treatment to me" the will
states.
The will, Under date of November 4,
1909, and filed for probate January l6,
1912, gave to Elizabeth A. Perry. a
second wife, who is much younger than
the testator, the property at 10 Liberty
street and $500 until her death or re-
marriage. To the children. Eliza p.
Bott, of F%latbush; Eva A. Ferry, oil
Brooklyn, were given equal shares In
the personal property and the bequest
to the wife, if forfeited by her under
the conditions of the will.
The wife and Eva A. Ferry, nee Per
ry, were named as executives without
bond, and the latter was granted an
order of letters testamentary on Janu-
ary IS, 1912.

Death
to Having I'd
Stepfather

NEW YORK, Jan. 22.-Beeause she
could not persuade her mother to give
up her plans to wed a third time, Caro-
Ign Long, a pretty s~tenographer, swal-
lowed laudanum and died last night.
The 20-year-old girl had typed letters
for the Howard Construction Company
eight years to maintain herself and
mother, and when she learned that
the latter intended to bring a second
stepfather to the home she had kept
up, she declared she never would well
come him.
About midnight neighbors heard the
girl. her mother. Mrs. Elizabeth Shra
der, and John Berwin arguing. Then
the girl screamed hysterically, and
fearing from the indications that Sc
rious trouble would follow. someone
called the police. who found the
mother and the man discussing the
daughters opposition to the wedding
The daughter, in negligee, then APP
peared, and, according to the police,
asked the mother if she had changed
her mind. Receiving a reply in the
negative, the girl drew a revolver from
the fold of her gown and pointed it al
her temple. 1t was knocked from heI
hand. The police ordered the girl tc
dress.
Pretending to get her clothing, she
reached to a shelf, secured a bottle
and raised it to her lips. The Police
men again sought to save her, but
fighting them off she managed to drair
it's contents.

Prosecutor and
Lawyer Clash in
Prisoners Plea

A lively tilt was INDUCED in between
Prosecutor Wilbur A. Mott and Joseph
Kraemer in Judge Martins Court this
morning over the plea of guilty entered
by the latter's client, Benjamin Lon
don, indicted for the larceny of $35
worth of jewelry.
After the defendant had pleaded
guilty, Kraemer, his counsel, appeared
in the court and sought to have the
plea changed to not guilty, saying that
he had so advised his client, and that
he was not notified that the ma was
to be pleaded.
Mr.. Mott said that the plea was
right. because the man had confessed
the theft of the goods, and that he
would be enabled to help him, where
as, if he elected to stand trial, he might
be put beyond the good offices of the
prosecutor. The prosecutor intimated
that Kraemer sought to keep the case
open for the benefit of what fees there
might be, but the latter strenuously
maintained that he was conducting the
defense for charity.
After a few more rumbles the quar-
rel subsidized and the plea of guilty
stood.
