FOUND STRIcHNINE TABLETS
 IN BOX OF BUTTONS.
Lansevin Child in Ledyard Probably i
 Ate Some With Fatal Results.

In continuing his investigation of the death of year old Rosa E. Langevin, daughter of Mir and Mrs. Napoleon Langevin of Ledyard. Coroner Frank lin H. Brown has found that there were tablets in house containing pos sibly from 1-60th to 1-120th grain of strychnine, and it is probable that the little girl, with the other child which was taken sick, had got hold of these and had eaten some. In the autopsy which was held no traces of poison were found in the organs that were examined, but this is thought to be due to the very small amount of the poison which the child got, but which was enough. however, to cause her death. The tablets were loose in a box in the house, mixed in with lot of buttons, and were where the cfil- dren could get at them They had been prescribed a year ago for the girls father, the coroner said, for treatment for rheumatism
 The two children who were affected ate different things at breakfast but 10th showed all the symptoms of strichnine poisoning. The little girl who died had just finished eating two pancakes when she fell to the floor and soon died. The other child ate something entirely different, but show ed the same symptoms. She recover ed, however.
 The coroner has not yet concluded his investigation and issued his ind ing.

METHODS EMPLOYED
 BY AN ARSON TRUST
Deputy Fire Marshal UnfoIds Tale of
 Organized Incenciiarism. N

Organized Incenciiarism. &
 Chicago. Jan. 15.-wfth the indict- ment today of Joseph Clarke. for an alleged attempt to brfbe an assistant states attorney not to prosecute an arson case. as a text, A. A. Bach, chief deputy statet fire marshal. told a re- markable story of organized incendiar- ism. Ten per cent. of Chicago's fires are ineendiary, Bach said.
 There are three men in Chicago, known as insurance adjusters. who of ten get to fires before the 6renaen. They sleep with their clothes on, have automobiles in readiness and rece7v- ing tips that a fire is about to be started are on their way almost be- fore an alarm comes in.
 "The adjusters do not actually start fires themselves: they employ men to do that-men who actually solicit the business. The adjusters make their money hy adjusting the losses. They offer brfbes to detectives freauently but never when there is a witness present, thus leaving it one mans word against another.
 t"Often we are informed days in ad- vance of when fires are to be started. In that way we are able to prevent have had detectives watching buildings that have been marked for the torch We have had tips that have led us to buildings with basenlents filled with eXce1S1or, the nOor saturated with OH and the stock packed in combustibie material. All that we could do was to notify the insurance company and have the insurance cancelled. In such cases the fires were not started.
 "It is possible for anyone to get a building fired in Chicago. Charges vary, according to the magnitude Of the fire. For large fires the charge is one per cent and even at that price the fire bugs make money I do not know a single conviction for arson in in the last Is months" .-

Health Service Warns Against Cigar Clipper

The neat and prompt contrivance
will still be of some use. In its ever
ready self-cocking, hair-trfgger way,
it can still snip slices OF inquir1ng
fingers, as of yore. 1t viii still sub
serve the useful purpose of chopping
superfuous matches into small bits
a favorite pastime in the temperance
pool room of cur misspent youth. The
cigar store man will doubtless keep
it wound up and waiting for what it
may devour, for the cigar store bust
ness is founded on habit
But we must ignore, avoid, eschew,
shun, evade, elude and otherwise es-
cape it and its peril. Be advised and
chaw on your cigars, unless you car
ry a pocket clipper or a jackknife
Grand this is considered very
knowing-you may squeeze the tip
of a good ten-center between your
thumbs until the wrapper bursts.
But on no account insert in the sock

For whatever may be your ideas on
the subject of interchanging mouth Sc
cretions you surely don't wish to be

Upward Strokes of Beauty.

When my little girl was born the
old colored nurse 1 got for her told
me that if l brushed her hair the
wrong way it would make it curly,
writes a correspondent of the Pitts
burgh Dispatch. Whether that was
what did it or not I do not know, but
her hair, while it never really curled,
has always stood away from her head
in soft, pretty way. Mammy's in
structions set me to thinking. I real
lied that all faces fall as they grew
old. and 1 wondered why it wouIdn' t
be wise to wash and dry the face up
instead Of down. 1 not only taught
my little daughter to do this-she al
ways wipes upward-but l began on
myself. Today, at forty-seven, not a
muscle in my face has fallen; there
are no drOopy lines in it, and no sag
ging shows at my chin. My eyelashes
are always noticed because they curl
upward so prettily Cthey didn't before
began the upward treatment), and
my daughters are just like them
