ONE OF CoLoRADo's CONVICT MADE ROADS.

effect. For the most part the prisoners

five per cent of the prison boards
where prison factory labor is practiced
are trying to abolish it. 1t is curse

contract system the labor contractor

institution and the warden merely Il

Canon City we had 500 idle men in the
institution. These have since been put

prison. Our convict labor has paid as
an economic proposition. 1t has prov

states have found convict labor out
side the prison walls improbable be-
cause they have paid too much atten
ton to guarding the convicts. Armed
guards have frequently cost more than
the labor was worth. have found in
my experience that prisoners are just
folks. that there is an element of good
in most of them and that sane humane

time off for good behavior, which

one month for the first years work on
the roads, two months for the second

sixth year In case of indeterminate
sentences we deduct this from The
minimum sentence imposed. In case a

How to Make Smart and Becoming
Neekwear.
A pretty embroidered linen jabot
can be made from handkerchief.
You will have little difficulty making
the jabot if these directions are close
~ followed: Place the handkerchief
fat on the table and turn one point
under to form a straight top for the
jabot. Now, using the point opposite
as a center. fold the sides into plaits
until the jabot is the desired width.
Basic the plaits in place and press
with heated iron. When the bast-
ings are removed you will have jabot
pretty enough to please any one. The
embroidered handkerch iefs with edges
Of handmade lace are especially lovely
when used for jabots.
Four handkerchiefs can be Joined to
form dainty tea apron. When these
are sewed together by hand they form
a large square Arrange this with one
point forming bib and run gather
ing string across the front, SO that
the apron ITS properly at the waist
line. Stitch a band Of lace insertion
over this and run ribbon through to
form the apron strings.
The apron is finished by a narrow
edging of valenciennes lace.
Attractive bureau scarfs and table
cover for the bedroom can be made by
using the handkerchiefs as medallions
and pointing them together. Border
these with an edging Of lace.

A ten cent piece Of ice every other
day is a more economical purchase
than a five cent piece every day. Be-
ing twice as large and solid. it will last
not only twice as long as a five cent
piece, but it will give double as much
chill to the refrigerator, and this chill
will last twice as long. so that when
new cake is put in it will not melt
as soon as it would have done other
wise. In fact. ten cent piece of ice
will often keep a refrigerator so cold
that, except in very warm weather.
one can get along very well if one only
buys it every three days instead Of
every two.
1t is well to buy new cake before
the last one is entirely gone and the
chill of the iceboX gone with it.

Lemon Juice or . Ripe Tomato Will
Remove Any Diseolorations.
Shapeliness is not all that is neces-
sary to the making Of throat beauti-
full. The texture of the skin must be
llne and soft, white and unblemished.
Cleanliness is the first essential. A
good thorough scrubbing with not too
soft brush. hot water and soap once
or twice a week will do no harm. the
rest Of the time using the ordinary
cloth. Apply lemon Juice or a ripe to-
mato to any discolorations that may ap-
pear. and unless the pores are enlarged
use cold cream freely.
Alcohol will harden the flesh. As for
the various bleaches. there are some
that are harmless. except in so far as
they invariably are drying, which ulti-
mately leaves the skin harsh and brash.
Here is one that can easily be made at
home; but, like the others. it is drying.
30 be sure to counteract this effect by
applying cold cream after using it.
Mix half an ounce Of peroxide Of n.y.
drogen. six ounces Of witch hazel and
half an ounce of Tactic acid. Apply
this with a soft cloth.
