A PICTURE OF HARRIS

pears In Court With Postal

State OF Iowa vs.. The Man in the
Moon. That should be the title Of a
case against Neil Harris, brought by
Mrs. Nancy Rice OF SIT A street, in
the superior court today.
Harris is charged in the information
with embezzlement by bailee. He is
said to have been given $24.9o by
Mrs. Rice for the purpose Of paying
some bills and making payment on
a house recently bought by Mrs.
Rice. Instead of making these pay.
ments he converted the money to his
own use and decamped.
Riding the Moon.
When Mrs. Rice appeared In the
superior court this morning she was
accompanied by her daughter, who, IT
is said had more than a friendly in.
terest in the defendant She carried
a picture of Harris, which showed him
sitting on wooden moon, riding
through space. Whether he Is still
riding that moon through hpace or not
Is what the plaintiffs are anxious to
know. He has disappeared and the
women want the money back. Large
tears coursed the younger woman's
cheeks as she told the story of the
young mans deception.
Harris has been boarding with the
Rice family for some time and in this
manner worked himself into the good
graces of Mrs. Rice to the extent OF
being made their financial agent. +

HAND REQUIRES CARE
NO DETAIL OF THE TOILET IS
MORE IMPORTANT.
Even Where Nature Has Denied
Beauty Much May Be Accom-
pIlshed by the Persistent Use
Of the Proper Lotions.

A pretty hand, we'll kept, with nails
brilliantly polished and trimmed, 10 q
greater ornament to woman than
the most priceless jewel. Even com.
monplace hand can be made attractive
looking by careful treatment. There
fore the girl to whom Nature has de-
MED taper fingers and an altogether
model hand can take heart Of grace,
and go improve on the commonplace
that her hands and nails may excite
admiration and envy.
II the skin of the hands Is rough, 1t
can soon be softened by the applica-
ton of well-chosen creams or lotions
and the use of soft water for ablu.
tional purposes, care being taken to
dry the hands thoroughly every time
after washing. Neglecting to do this
is the cause of many rough-looking
hand, and encourages chilblains. The
first thing to do in treating the hands
10 to get the skin soft and the fingers
pliable.
Hands that are inclined to be red
and rough are often benefited by be-
ing washed in oatmeal water. Take
some good oatmeal and boil It. In wa
ter for an hour, strain 1t, and use the
liquid to wash with night and morn
ing. This wash must be made fresh
every day. If toilet borax is added to
the oatmeal, the whitening effect Of
the lotion will be enhanced. To keep
the hands white, some women sleep
in gloves smeared inside with melted
tallow.
Five or tea minutes given to the
toilet of the nails every day and an
extra 20 minutes every week will keep
them in good order.
To keep the finger nails clean the
nail.brush and soap and warm water
should be used daily, and every time
the hands are washed the free edge Of
the scarE.skin, which, II not attended
to, is apt to grow upward over the
nails, should be gently loosened and
pressed back in q neatly rounded
form, by which the occurrence Of
cracks, hang-nails, etc., about the
roots Of the nails will be prevented,
and q graceful oval form and the dis
play Of a crescentlike space Of white
will be ensured. This scarf-skin as
a rule should never be cut, and should
on no account be torn or picked on,
as Is commonly done. The less 1t 10
meddled with, other than In the way
recommended; the better.
