RiCHES0N Is CALM
WHEN DEATH COMES
CONTINUED fro Page one,

er. Miss Linnell began preparations
for her wedding. Some of her trous-
seau was completed and the two paid
a visit TO Rev. Edward S. Cotton of
Brewster, who was asked to officiate
at the ceremony.
Friction developed between Richeson
and his deacons in June, 1910, over the
young minister's impetuous manner
and his violent language. There was
also a question as to the loss of $50
in money which had been left by
parishioner in the pastors study. The
minister declared he had been robbed
of the money. Shortly afterward 1t
was learned he had sent a similar sum
! by money order from a nearby town
| to a woman in Salt Lake City, Utah.
| His resignation followed, and he &C
cepted call to the Emmanuel Baptist
| church of Cambridge.
FOLLOWED TO BOSTON.
| When RichesOn went to Cambridge
| Miss Iinnell went to the conservatory
of music in Boston. She was induced
to attend the conservatory by the min
/
ton of her voice, which had given
signs of much promise in the Hyannis
church choir, she would better fit her
self TO become his wife. On the min
ister's recommendation the girl took
room at the Young Woman's Chris
tan association quarters on Warren
ton street, Boston. She proved dill

work by teaching in the Sunday
school of fremont temple, the leading
Baptist church OF the city. There were
frequent meetings between Miss Lin
nell and RichesOn.
The successes which the young
preacher attained in his larger sphere
of usefulness made a marked impress
sion upon him. Surrounded by inf1u-
entail friends and associates his ambi-
tons widened. He began to pay court
TO Miss Violet Edmands of Brookline.
the daughter of Moses Grant Edmands,
a prominent Baptist layman and trus-
tee OF the Newton Theological semin-
airy, from which Richeson had been
graduated. Miss Edmands was prom
inent socially and was wealthy in her
own right, as well as entitled to share
in the estate of some SSS0.00O left by
her grandfather Entrance to the ex.
elusive home of the Edmands had
been easy to the minister as the pas
i tor of the church the family attended
and in a short time he was accepted as
! sutton for the daughters hand.

Milady's Toilet Table
BY Nine. D'MILLE

One great advantage of a dry shampoo
is that it requires only a few minutes.
1t takes out all the dust, excess of oil
and dandruff, and leaves the scalp
clean. cool, and refreshed. The best
shampoo powder is a mixture of a cup
fu of Cornmeal and a small original
package of thcrON. Just sprinkle a, little
on the head and brush thoroughly
through the hair.
A harmless safe and sure way to re-
move superfiuous hair is to apply a
delatOnc paste. Mix enough powdered
delatOne with water to cover the hairs;
leave on for two minutes, then wipe
off. wash the skin, and the hairs will
be gone
To keep the skin smooth and soft and
make the complexion natural and at
traCtive, rub over the face, neck, and
arms each morning a lotion made by
dissolving a small original package Of
mayatOne in half pint of witch hazel.
This Is much better than powder, for Il
will not rub off, and the complexion
needs 10 retOuChing all day long
There should be a jar of MothEI' $
Salye in every home. 1t heals minor
cuts. burns. and sCalds without leayins
a scar. 1t is a splendid remedy for
sores, skin erupt.ons, pimples. eczema,
and similar beauty destroyers. -
