A PRETTY PETTICOAT

The girl who wishes something
pretty and inexpensive may make for
herself dainty petticoat. Choosing
white satin as the foundation, she has
simply to sew upon it from the eight
OF the knee a flounce of lace slightly
frilled on, but only slightly. so that
the pattern may be seen. The petit
coat looks exquisite when there is
chosen for the frill net applique
with a scalloped design that recalls
broderies anglaise in net.

IS YOUR HAIR DULL?

Dull brittle hair, without any life or
spring in it, is a sure sign that the
owner is not well. OF course, some
people have hair that Is naturally
dull, but even these viii find at times
that their locks are more lack-lustre
than usual. and then they will know
that the moment has come when a
little extra attention should be paid
to health matters.
Dull hair is generally the result OF
overstrained nerves. Perhaps yenr
hours of work are too long; perhaps
there is something amiss with your
digestion, SO that your food does not
nonrish you properly, and, being half
starved, you are living on your
nerves.

Druggist Says When Mixed
With Sulphur Prevents Dand-

Common garden sage brewed into

stop scalp itching and falling hair.
Just few applications will prove a
revelation IL your hair is fading, gray
or dry, scraggly and thin. Mixing the

There are muitifudes of suitable
hats; all the hosts of stitched tweed

was planning to secure a license for
the marriage on Saturday afternoon.
1t was evident that the suicide was
deliberate as the bottle of acid had
been purchased only "a short time be-.
fore it was taken. Sorensen was
son. of the late Christian Sorensen.
He was born in Kenosha August Is,
1898, and he had spent his entire life
in Kenosha He was a great fine look
ing boy and had always borne an ex-
eellent reputation. His friends can
not account for his actions in taking
his own life. 1t is thought that his
usual punctuality in all matters relat-
ing to money caused him to become de-
spondent when he found that he could
not meet the demand of his employer
for the money collected during the
morning. The mother viii ask the po-
lice to make the most rigid possible
search to discover and prosecute the
men who are supposed 10 have sold the
young man liquor during the morning.
Funeral services will be held from
the Hansen parlors at half past two
O'Clock Tuesday afternoon and inter
ment will be at the family plot at the
Kenosha City cemetery.
Evidence produced at the coroneris
inquest over the remains of Young
Sorensen this morning showed that the
death of the young man was a tragedy
of the mismanaged saloons. 1t was
shown that the boy, although minor,
had been drinking in the saloon of
Stanley Jocius on Main street Satur-
day morning and that he had been
allowed to gamble in this place until
he had lost considerable sum of
money. 1t showed that he had also
drank in the johnson saloon on How
land avenue just south of the city lin
its. District Attorney A. i. Drury
conducted the inquest and declared that
he would at once proceed to file com
plants against the saloon men for
selling liquor to minors and possibly
for the further charge of permitting
gambling in their places.
The license committee of the coun-
Gil also at once took up an investiga-
tion of the charges against the Jocius
place as this place is again seeking a
license from the city.
The jury returned verdict that the
young man had come to his death by
suicide.

DEsP0NDENT over LOSS
Mother Sees Son Dead but Believes Him
Sleeping and Facts Are Not Known
Until Several Hours After He Has
Taken the Fatal Dose of Acid.

Fred Sorensen, nineteen years of
age and son of Mrs. Chris Sorensen,
residing at $40 Drew street, committed
suicide at the home of his mother just
afternoon Saturday when he drank
nearly three ounces of carbolic acid.
The cause of the act is unknown, but
it is said that he was respondent on
account of the loss of a small sum of
money in gambling game.
Young Sorensen was employed as a
driver by the Kenosha Sanitary Dairy
Company and he had been at work on
Saturday morning making the usual
round and making, the usual collec-
tions. He came to his home just af-
ter noon and his mother noticed that
he was under the influence of liquor
She invited him to dinner but he de-
clared that he did not care for any
dinner and went directly to his room
on the second floor of the home. The
mother cleared away the table after
dinner and then went up to the room
to see if the son was ill. She found
him on the floor near a lounge and be-
lieving that he was sleeping she left
the house and went down town with
out. disturbing him. She returned to
the house about, four o'clock and just
about the same time the employer of
Sorensen had sent messenger to the
house to get the money which had
been collected by the young man in
the morning. One of the members
OF the household went to the room and
the discovery was made that Sorensen
was dead. Coroner Millager was call
ed and later the remains were removed
to the Hansen NOR que. The coroner
at once began an investigation into
the case and a jury was called to hear
the testimony.
q Mrs. Sorensen could tell little of the
actions of her son during the morning.
He had shown considerable money on
Friday evening when he paid his
mother his board for the week and he
is said to have collected something
over eight dollars on the milk route
in the morning. He had only few
cents in his pockets when found dead.
Tt is stated that young Sorensen had
planned to be married within few
days and he had announced that he

Another effort is to be made to secure

the city and today the members of the
common council received letters under
the seals of the Trades and Labor coun-
ell asking that the petition sent to the
council three weeks ago asking for the

and acted on favorably. The Trades
and Labor council viii send delega-
ton to the session of the common cotn-
ell to appear and urge the eight hour
day. Members of the council are will
ing to grant the eight hour day with
eight hours pay to the street workers
but they claim that an eight hour day
for all employees would greatly disor-
ganize all departments of the city and
that it is impossible to add the regular
salaried employees to an eight hour
schedule. 1t is possible that the matter
will come up before the council at the
meeting this evening.

Canada has no city so large as
Cleveland and only two that are larger
than st. Paul We think of it as a
predominantly agricultural country
and COMMONLY account for the big inn
migration thfther by the cheap farm
lands of Alberta and Saskatchewan;
but even in Canada almost one-half
Of the population now lives in towns.
The proportion of rural population has
steadily declined from eightyrone per
cent in 1871 to only ffty-four per cent
at the last census. Alberta and Sas-
katchewah have gained seven hundred
thousand inhabitants in ten years, but
one-third Of this cain has been in the
towns Of the two districts.
In the same time Ontario has gain
ed three hundred and forty thousand
inhabitants, but the rural population
of that province has actually decreas-
ed. Quebec has gained three hundred
and fifty thousand, but only forty
Thousand of this increase has been on
the farms For the whole Dominion
in ten years rural population has in
creased less than six hundred thous-
and, while urban population has in
creased by more than a million and
a quarter.
From this one may deduce the fol-
lowing formula: Given great album
dance of cheap land that may be cul-
tivated proftabIy, and two men will
still go to the city for every one that
goes to the. farm. IN the United
States during the last census period
the towns gained twelve million in
habitants and the farms four fillions
three for the town to one for the
farm.-Saturday Evening Post.

THURSDAY, JUNE 26, 1913.

When the sheriff, judges and police
officers work out way by which the
inmates Of the county jail can be put
to work as they are permitted to do
under the law which has just been
passed by the legislature, some of the
regular visitors to that institution will
be earning an honest living for certain
more or less extended periods of the
year for the first time in their lives.
It is not expected that the law will
result in any great saving to the county
but it will give the authorities much
better control over the CIRCULARS" for
the class that formerly regarded jail
sentence as boon will now look on
one with horror and loathing. From a
resthouse where the victim OF the wrath
of the law was kept warm, comfortable
an well fed the jail has been changed
into a workhouse, operated under the
cherries regulation that those who do
no work are not expected to eat. The
operation of the new law is also ex-
pected to relieve the poormaster of some
Of his burdens for a Jail, sentence under
it will have a most salutary effect on
some Of the class with whom he has to
deal oftenest. Men arrested for wife
desertion or for failure to provide for
their families can be put to work under
a Jail sentence and everything they
earn above the cost Of their keep
to the county can be applied to the
support of their wives and children.
The officials of this county were among
ihe, strongest supporters of this law when
it was being considered in the legis-
lature and they hope to work great
changes under it. In the opinion of
many Of the men most familiar with
the cause of vagrancy and the results
OF. the old system of Furnishing minor
attractions of the laws and ordinances
with sentences to absolute idleness the
new law will prove great reformative
measure.

New State Law Makes Pos
sible School Board of seven
Members in Kenosha.
ALL TO Be ELECTED At LARGE

A new state law received in Kenosha
today has opened the way for solu-
tion of many troubles that have arisen
due to the unwieldy size of the board
of education and if the people Of Ke-
nosha desire to have a smaller board
the new law has pointed the way for
such action. The law relates especial
ly to cities working under special
charters and provides that the people
in such cities may submit the ques-
ton of reducing the size of the school
boards to a referendum vote. In order.
to get the question before the voters
a petition signed by thirty per cent OF,
the electors must be filed with the city
clerk. Within thirty days after the.
filing of the petition the city council.
must order special election and sub
nit the question of adopting the pro-
visions of the new law. The law does
away with ward designations of school
commissioners and it makes the cleo
tion of commissioners a matter for the
voters Of the entire city. The term
of the commissioners so elected is for
three years and city must have seven.
school directors. The law provides
that the first year three directors shall
be elected for three years and the
others for terms of one and two years.
The new law may prove popular in
Kenosha as for some time there has
been considerable activity to secure a
reduction in the size of the school
board, many of the present members
Of the board favoring the plan.
