BEFORE STORING THE FURS
Should Be Thoroughly Cleaned, and
the Process Is Not One Woman
Need Be Afraid OF.

White furs, such as ermine, may be
effectively cleaned by laying the fur
fiat on a table, then rubbing with bran
moistened with warm water. For the;
wet process Of applying bran use q
piece of soft flannel; for the dry meth
cd, book muslin. After using the
bran apply magnesia. Rub against
the growth of the fur. Another meth
cd of cleaning white fur is to take
three parts -four and one part salt,
heat slightly and rub well over the
fur, using handful at a time. When
the -four remains white after rubbing,
all removable soil has been carried
off; then throw on some handfuls, COW
ering the garment, and allow it to re-
main under this for a DAY or two.
In no case should furs be placed
near a fire to dry, because each little
hair is furnished with tiny mite OF
oil and this is apt to dry when the
fur is placed in contact with heat.

NEED A FREQUENT CLEANING
Beauty Specialists Are Wise When
They Urge Patrons to Give Their
Wells Regular Additions.

The beauty specialists ask their Gus.
toners sometimes whether they changeI
their wells frequently and have themI
cleaned just as they would other itemsI
of their attire, and when the answerl
is in the negative, they explain that
wells are dust and germ collectors, and
should really be changed very often.
The white veil gets bath frequently,
for it shows soil so readily that there
is no evading 1t, but every one does not
know that other wells need ablutions
now and then.
The veil should be squeezed in soap
suds several times and rinsed in two
waters, using little blueing in the
last rinsing for black or blue veil-
ings. Then a little cold starch should
be mixed, in the proportion Of a tea
spoonful Of powdered starch to pint
Of lukewarm water; squeeze the veil
twice loosely through this solution,
shake 1t out and roll it in a cloth for
about 15 minutes.
Meanwhile lay mat on table and
cover it with newspapers. Then pin
the lower edge of the veil straight
along the edge Of the table, stretching
the rest of the veil as smoothly as pos
sible and pinning it to the table. Iron
with a hot iron, and the net will have
the crispness of new veil.
Chiffon wells or scarfs may also be
washed, but should be ironed on the
ironing board and need no starch.
Tulle bows may also be done up fresh
" In the same manner as a mesh veil.

 man E. Jansen, a Los Angeles aviator, lost his balance and fell forward into the Whirling propeller Jansen was decapitated.

Francis Jans- sen and Tom Gun, a Chinese aviator went to the grounds today to test out the hydro-aeroplane. Everything was in readiness and Francis mounted the seat ready to start when the accident occurred
 A mechanician started the propeller and Janssen who had been holding the machine was about to step to one side when he apparently lost his footing and throwing out both arms, fell for ward into the spinning propeller.
 JansSen came from Los Angeles a few days ago to aid in the test since being here resided at Golden Gate avenue in San Francisco, he was about 30 years old.

ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH

WASHINGTON, ay 2.-Tariff re- vision with an obligato of inspiring political oratory carried the house tonight up to the much discussed schedule K, the wool scedule, which will be disposed of tomorrow. When the house adjourned it had completed the agricultural, wines and spirits, cotton and flax, hemp and jute schedules The democratic majority had rolled steadily on nonchalantly voting down every one of the dozen amendments presented by the repub- licans and progressives
 It was d field day for the orators of both sides and veterans of the chamber vied with the boy orators among the new members in their elocutionary efforts.
 When the political past of twenty years and the political future for a century were thoroughly threshed out Of all oratorical material and Repre- sentatiVes Bernhart of Indiana and Moore of Pennsylvania had gotten to the point of reciting original poe try about goats, Representative Un- derwood called a halt. He insisted on confining the debate thereafter tC the merits of the proposition under consideration, and with the mercury

 at midsummer gait, hurried through
 the flax schedule in record time. Tho

 The discussion opened with the ci trus fruits in the agricultural sched ule. the Pacific Coast growers Wag ing an unsuccessful fight against tn cutting of the tariff on lemons, figs raisins. dried grapes and other coas 1 products

INSURANCE |S |. PAID THEN MAN FOUND LIVING
James Calvin La France Admits Obtaining Money by Disappearing, Substi- tuting Body as His Own Is Arrested
ASSOCIATED PRESS D1sPArdHl

PORTLAND, May 2.-With the ex- ception of explaining where he ob tained the body used as a substitute, James Calvin La France. who was ar rested at CoquiIlo last Saturday made a complete confession to District At tOrney Evans as to how he sWindled one insurance company and two fra ternal societies out of $15,000. He hardly had worked the sWindle suc- cessfully than he regretted the act and realized he had brought disgrace on his family. Today La France has not a penny left of the small fortune which his wife collected last summer, after finding a body in the Clackamas river, which was identified as his.
 It is now fairly well established that La France did not find the body of some lost man in the woods near the upper Clackamas- but that the body was transported from Portland or some nearby town to the wilderness where it was found by Portland fisherman. The cadaver may possibly have been supplied by-grave robbery. the detec- tives believe as the condition of the body when found indicated it had been in a solution of formaldehyde.
 According to La Frances confession, he had no thought of an insurance swindle when he took out the first policy. The scheme came to him during January 1912 but was abandoned for the time being, because the substitute body would be preserved too long in cold weather Mrs. La France knew noth- ing of the swindle until after she had collected part of the insurance La France wrote her and met her for the first time in lot at Portland. The couple talked until midnight, the wife upbraiding the husband, but he insist ed she must go through with the plot La France says he knew he was watched as he saw the detectives fol- l lowing him..
 "There were thousand times when they could have arrested me I wond- cred why they did not do so,'' he de- clared
 The prisoner is charged with obtain ing money under false pretenses and a similar charge was placed against his wife
 This afternoon the Portland fisher
 man who discovered the body in the river failed to identify La France as
 the man who directed them to tht spot last June.
