| it was proved, had been stolen in the
evening before the murders from a
Jewish theater in Paris, which had
rented them from a costumer. They
were gabardines, the coats prescribed
by law in the middle ages for Jews.
The hats completing these costumes
had also been taken from the theater.
together with the woman's cloak. The
clue led nowhere, however.
Sought to Throw Off Suspicion.
At first no official suspicion was en-
tertained of Nine. Steinheil's possible
guilt of the murder of her hus-
band and mother, but Paris, remem-
bering the circumstances of Faure's
death, was of different opinion.
Nine Steinheil herself, well aware
of the trend of public opinion, was in
defatigable in her visits to the heads
of the police department, constantly
sistent in her demands that the GRIM
inals be brought to justice. She ap-
pealed to the Paris press for assist
ance in the matter, then, in November,
1908, brought an accusation against
the servant, Couillard, and against the
son of her cook, Alexandra Wolff, i'm
plicating Nine Wolff, an old and
trusted servant, as an accessory be-
fore the fact. The evidence against
Couillard consisted of a pearl from
one of Nine. Steinheil's stolen rings,
which was found in his pocketbook.
She admitted later that she had
placed it there herself, in order to
frighten him into a confession.
The accused persons were promptly
discharged from custody, but by this
time Nine. Steinheil had involved
herself in such network Of false
hoods and contradictions, especially
in connection with the stolen jewelry,
which yet was found to be still in her
possession, that suspicion was fully
directed against her. On the night of
November Is, 1908, she confessed her
completely in the murder, and was ar
rested, subsequently retracting the
confession. Her trial was not begun
until November of the following year,
and ended in her acquittal.
Famous "steinheII" Case.
This is, in brief, the story of the
"Steinheil case" which was conducted
with brutal frankness SO far as a gen.
eral exposure of the woman's immoral
life was concerned, but with extreme
circumspection whenever it threatened
to touch upon her relations with sew
eral magistrates, and, most of all, with
the deceased president of the republic.
Marguerite Steinheil was shown to be
the latest of long line of historic
French courtesans, whose opportuni-
ties would have been infinitely greater
had she lived under an emperor or a
king. One of her minor troubles was
a study of her as typical case OF de-
generation published by the late Pro-
lessor Lombrbso. He compared her
with Phryne.

styles Change Gradually.

On the whole the radical change ex-
pected in spring fashions will certain
ly not take place all at once. Little
by little fuller skirts, overdresses and
even paniers will make their appear
ance, but these effects will only ap-
pear slowly and gradually. Undoubt-
eddy the fuller styles will prevail later
on, but the evolution of fashion, like
every other action or movement aim
ing at attaining perfection, is of the
''festina lente" category.
Judging from reports from Paris the
change of silhouette will not be re-
markable this year. La Parisienne has
not yet tired of Ga ligne" and the
simple lines of the figure, especially
from hip to hem. Gracefully arranged

EASY TO RESTORE NECKWEAR
Process Not Expensive, and Complete
Return of the Original Freshness
Is Sure.

These dainty accessories to our
wardrobes become soiled very quickly,
and we often regret having to use wa
ter upon them, for they never regain
their first freshness.
To send them to the dry cleaners
each time is an expensive luxury. They
may be cleaned in this manner at
home:
When a number of pieces have &C
cumulated, place them in a quart jar
and I'LL it three-quarters full of gaso-
line
After closing it alright, shake Wig
orously and allow it to stand for sew
eral hours. Shake from time to time.
Remove the articles and rub the
soiled spots with a pure white soap.
using an old toothbrush. Repeat this
process until the neckwear is thor
oughly clean.
Hang out of doors, that the air may
quickly dry them. When the gaso-
line has evaporated, bring them in
and hang them in a warm place.
Heat helps wonderfully in dispell-
Ing the odor of gasoline.
Place in a closely covered box con-
tanning sachet bags. Byt the time the
neckwear is needed it will have lost
the disagreeable odor.

LINING is IMPORTANT PART
French Women Are Most Particular
as to This, and Their judy
nnent Is Good.

French women adore Innings, and
when new coat, or stole, or muff is
being chosen the lining is certainly as
important as the outside material.
Furs will have white satin Innings
covered with real lace; evening coats
will be enchantingly lined with layers
of chiffon in different shades, so that
when the coat falls away from the
shoulders a beautiful effect of color
catches the eye.
Underpetticoats of vivid chiffon have
the same result when the upper skirt
is lifted. A tailor-made of quite or
binary serge will be lined with dainty
silk Powered cachemire. in fact, lin
ings are large items in the mind of
the woman who understands the art Of
dress
Nothing gives a surer note of dis
.tinction to a garment than its inside
material, and one may go SO far as to
say that tailor-malfe or evening
cloak of any kind, that il badly or IN
differently lined is as lacking IN finish

mares employed for farm work. If in
diligently handled, can do all the
work that is required and will pro-
duce in addition a considerable num-
Der of colts. which rapidly develop
into marketable animals. thereby add
ing to the farm income.
1t Is true that somewhat more team
force must be kept where mares are
employed to do farm work than where
geldings or mules are kept, but when
the greater returns obtained by reason
of the production Of colts are consid-
cred. mares are found to be by far the
most profitable for farm work.
1t is generally considered that three
brood mares must be kept to do the
same work that can be done by a
pair of geldings or mules of equal
strength. but the difference in feed

young foal. Dead colts are proof OF a
mans ignorance or negligence. Rear
ing good stock requires responsible
owners and employees.
1t Is perfectly clear, however. that
when the work done on farm by two
geldings is equally as well done by
three mares at very slight expense
in the feed cost. and when such extra
feed cost Is Offset with a balance of
500 or $3.50 to spare. that 1t is an
economic waste not to use mares. The
man who has not used mares in his
work is short the 500 or $3.50 which
the other man has secured through
the intelligent use of good draft
mares In his farm work.
The man who has not used mares
and produced colts has benefited no
one. His farm has produced that
much loss. These colts might as well
have been produced and their sale
would have added to his own wealth
and to that of the community where
he resides.

cost is slight and the value OF the
colts produced offsets such differences
In feed cost with a considerable bal
ance to spare. The profit depends
upon the size and quality of the colts
produced and the skill of the farmer
in handling his mares
Intelligent Craftsmanship is abso-
lutely necessary where mares are en-
ployed for farm work, and the lack OF
such intelligent horsemanship is re-
sponsible for the use of geldings Or
mules on considerable proportion OF
our farms.
Men who are careless or ignorant
always have so-called bad luck with
their mares. They either fail to get
the mares in foal or handle them In
such manner that they lose their colts
before they are carried the full time.
Still worse. many men lose the colts
after they have been produced. be-
cause of ignorance of the simplest
sanitary precautions in handling colts
at time of birth and for short time
subsequent thereto.
Sound sense in loading and driving
mares. and intelligent methods at
foaling time. are the only things need
ed. If you have been losing colts a.
birth or shortly afterward take 1t up
with your station veterinarian. He
will instruct you in the proper clean
liness of stalls and the care Of the

MARES IN FARM WORK
Mules and Geldings Return Only
Their Labor.
Greater Returns Obtained by Reason
of Production of Colts-Profit
Depends Greatly Upon
Size and Quality.
fBy WAYNE DINsMoRE,

It is an economic waste not to use
mares In farm work The man who
employs mules or marketable geld
ings in his farm operations receives in
return only their labor. When they
are idle they are a bill Of expense
and return nothing. The team force
which must be kept to handle the
work efficiently in the busy season
cannot be kept busy at all times of
the year. The farmer needs more
horses in blowing and seeding time.
and in harvest time than he needs
during the cultivating season or dur
ing the late fall and winter. While
a good manager will always so plan
his work as to keep the teams busy as

TIDY HABITS TO Be PRICED
Fortunate Indeed Is the Woman or
Girl Who Has Systematically
Cultivated Them.

Tidiness is one of the most attrac-
tive of feminine qualities It is also
one of the rarest. Early and per
sistent must be the training which
carries the girl into womanhood with
her bump of neatness" well de-
veloped.
Unless inherently fastidious during
school days, she is liable to drift into
careless habits which she never out
grows.
One girl may have trick of leaving
shoes about her room. AS child she
was permitted to do this. and as she
grew older the untidy custom was
never abandoned, for the simple rea
son that she herself did not notice
anything unusual about 1t, and prob
ably nobody else took the trouble to
correct her. Another slovenly habit
Is leaving a bunch of combings in the
