HOW 70 WHITEN THE THROAT MUST BE HAND EMBROIDERE
The Proper Thing for Both White anS
CoIored Linen Parasols-WIde
Variety Of Designs.

White and colored linen parasols
show hand embroidery. They are
mounted with ivory or bone handles
and tips or with light natural or pol.
ished wood handles and pointed
tips. Some of them are finished about
the edge with fringe, some with plain
hem and some with an embroidered
scallop. A wide variety of designs ia
shown in embroidered parasols. Satin
stitch, eyelet work and outlining are
used in combination to produce both
ornate and simple effects. Almost all
parasols are made with eight panels,
and half a dozen skeins of cotton are
needed for embroidering each panel
with a design of moderate size; Ave
or six dozen skeins, therefore, would
be sufficient for any parasol. The big
department stores make up the EN-.
broidered panels into parasols and sell
sticks and frames

Kansas City's First National

sufficient to take the bank through the

naInlna La LIttI. EslIow.

The United Shoe Machinery Com.
pany is the only real obstacle to the
formation OF shoe trust. We help
the small manufacturer to start in
business and keep going. He could
not afford to buy and care for his ma
chimes, but he can afford to leasethem
on the terms we give him based on
the number Of shoes he makes-an
average Of less than 2-S cents a pair
--and let us keep them up to date.
That is a fair arrangement. Some Of
the big fellows don't like our system,
because they think we ought to give
them special rates. But the little fell
lows stand with US because they know
we treat all manufacturers alike no
matter how many machines they use
If it were not for our methods Of doing
business there would be no small fac
tories anywhere and no prosperous
factories in small towns.

Lemon Juice or a Ripe Tomato viii
Remove Any DlscoIorations--
Alcohol to Harden.

Shapeliness is not all that is neces-
sary to the making of a throat beauti-
ful. The texture of the skin must be
fine 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 week, will do no harm, the rest
of the time using the ordinary cloth.
Apply lemon Juice or ripe tomato to
any discolorations that may appear,
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 insofar
as they invariably are drying, which
ultimately leaves the skin harsh and
brash. Here Is one that can easily be
made at home, but, like the others, 1t
is drying, so be sure to counterfeit this
effect by applying cold cream after
using it. Mix half an ounce of perox-
ide of hydrogen, six ounces of witch
hazel and half an ounce Of Tactic acid
Apply this with soft cloth.

FLOWERS THAT MATCH FROcK
One of the Prettlest Fancies Of Many
Seasons is the Adornment
Thus Effected.

What real pleasure women missed
when they were too prim to tuck
bunch of flowers into their frocks, or
too fearful lest the stalks should stain
their pretty raiment.
Nowadays flowers are the finishing
touch of every toilette, and some wom-
en- give orders to their florists or their
gardeners for a bouquet twice or thrice
a day to match the gowns they intend
to wear
In the evening it is usual to wear a
single and very exquisite blossom, the
work of human hands. A giant rose, a
mammoth poppy, an orchid-all are
popular. Strange fantasies in mater
ial are employed; here lace flower
tipped with fur, and there one uade Of
hand painted mousseline, a marvellous
copy Of natures own handiwork.

CABLEGRAM is WORTH $1,000
Business Conferences Between BaItl-
more and London Produce the
Longest Message on Record.

Baltimore.-In the adjustment OF
the many phases which have come up
from time to time in the arrange
ments for the financial plans of the
Consolidated Gas, Electric Light and
Power company frequent cable mes
sages have been necessary between
President Aldred, who is in London,
and the local attorneys and officials.
One of the officers said the company
had almost leased a cable wire for
the prompt sending of these intricate
and important messages.
A message sent recently on this
subject is said to have been one of
the longest single cables ever wired
from Baltimore.
1t was between 5000 and 5000
words, and took up several hours
time in transmission. AT rs cents
a word the cost of this message alone
was more than $1,000.

sea. but through the intercession OF
influential friends they were accorded
more humane treatment during later
years.
1t was due to the late President Ma
dero that these men we're saved from
further suffering. Having been asked
to pardon them or transfer them to
a more sanitary Institution, he caused
an investigation to be made. 1t was
found that the long Imprisonment had
greatly impaired the health of all
three. Madero thereupon ordered
their removal to the penitentiary at
Chihuahua. 1t was one OF the last
official orders issued by Madero, and
it had just been carried out when he
was assassinated.

Wardrobe Box.

A space saver is the wardrobe box
which fits under the bed. This box
is suspended from two metal arms, or
bars, which are affixed to the bed.
This makes it possible to draw the
box in and out without trouble. The
box does not touch the floor, SO
there is no possibility of dust accumu-
Iating under it, and the bed, with the
box in position. may be moved at will.
The boxes, which are provided with
hinged covers, come in different sizes
and are designed for different pur
poses.

SAVED By NADER0
Three Americans Serving Terms
for Murder to Be PardOned.
Taking slayers From Vile Prison Of
San Juan de Ulua Was One Of
Assassinated Presidents
Last Acts.

Chihuahua, Mexico.-After twelve
years in Mexican prisons, liberty is
finally in sight for three Americans
Dr. Charles S. Harle. Leslie e. Hurl-
bert and William Mitchell. They were
convicted of numbering two other
Americans, one being Harry Mitchell.
half-brother of William Mitchell and
brother-in-law Of Hurlbert; the other
was William Devars, drunken out
cast whom they had met in El Paso,
Tex.
The murdered men were first in
sured for $4,000. Harle, Hurlbert and
Mitchell were in Ne life insurance
business. The policies were made
payable to Hurlbert and Mitchell,
known respectively as Richardson and
Mason. Doctor Herle was the medical
examiner of the company in which the
men we're insured.
It was through an investigation by
the insurance company preliminary to
paying over the $4,000 that the fraud
was discovered.
The three conspirators were convict
ed here and sentenced to death For
several months they were kept in soli-
tary confinement In the state peniteE-
tiary here. The date of their exeeu-
ton was fixed for December 6, 1907.
They had served six years In prison
up to that time, awaiting final action
upon their case. The firing squad had
entered the court yard of the prison
and the execution was about to take
place when an order came from Presi
dent Diaz committing the sentences to
twenty years In the San Juan de Ulua
prison.
When informed Of this act Of elem
ency Mitchell and Hurlbert begged
that the death penalty be Immediately
imposed. They had heard Of the hor-
rors Of San Juan de Ulua. 1t had been
said that ten years there was eQuiva-
lent to the death penalty. Life there
was a lingering torture.
Doctor Harle comes of q prominent
Texas family. His aged mother lives
in Abilene, that state
Soon after Communication OF their
sentence the men were moved from
Chihuahua to the grim old prison of
San Juan de Ulua, on little island
in the harbor of Vera Cruz, and for
six years they were immured from the
world. During the early part Of their
sentence they were confined in soil.

ro cIean Rubber.

A rubber coat can be nicely cleaned
by the use of automobile soap, iel-
lylike substance of dark color, which
can be procured at any automobile
supply store or at a garage.
The soap can be used for other
garments also, as it does not injure
the finest finished material, but the
effect seems better on rubberized
goods. The first step in cleaning is
to make strong lather Clean the
coat thoroughly and then apply the
soap over small portion of the gar
ment. Carefully wash of the soap
by sponging with clear water and pro-
coed to next space to be cleaned. Dry

STATE DIRECTS ROAD WORK.
Chief Engineer Says 997 Miles Will
Have Been Built by November /.

Chief Engineer Al. r. Hirst of the
Wisconsin State Highway Commission
on Tuesday said that 997 miles of road
will have been built under the direc-
ton of the commission this year when
the work Of the season ends in Novem-
Der. Last year the number of miles
of road built was 46S, or less than one
half for this season. This year there
was 26 miles of concrete road built as
against 10 last year, 200 miles of stone
macadam as against 163 and 155 miles
of gravel macadam as against "a and
65 miles of shale and clay surfaces as
against Is. This year there will be
at the end Of the season AGO miles of
road graded but not surfaced as
against 223 miles at the close Of last
season. During the present year the
commission has supervised the cree
ton of 20 bridges. Engineer Hirst
said that working conditions generally
were considerably better this year than
last, and the character Of the road
constructed was of a higher quality
than ever before because of the in
creased experience of the men en-
ployed.

COMMISSION HERE.
State Commission Holds Hearings en-
Minor claims against local Factories

The State Industrial commission held
a session at the county building today
taking up four minor claims for dam
ages made by Kenosha workmen and
their relatives. Commissioner Il. A.
farrell was in charge of the hearing
and he had as his assistant State Sena-
tor Fred M. Wilcox of Appleton, who
was only recently named by the gov
ernor as member Of the commission.
The hearings for the day included the
case of Frank Stankus against the
American Brass company; Michael
Shidagis against the Badger Brass COM
pany, and Stephen Mikulski against the
Simmons Manufacturing company. All
were small claims for minor injuries.
This afternoon the commission took
up hearing on the claim of Mary Una
thum against the city of Kenosha and
it is probable that as result of the
evidence taken today the commission
will fix the amount of damages to be
paid by the city for the death of John
Umathum, the former janitor of the
Deming school.
