To Lace the Corset Cover

Instead of using ribbons, get white
crochet cotton, crochet a string and
run it through the top of the corset
cover.
Finish each end with little tassel
of cotton, and you will have no
trouble with broken strings. BY cro-
cheting double thread you can run

You will find that soaking the nails
daily in olive oil that has been

Beauty Culture

1t is injurious to wash the hair too
as this dries up the ma
tural oil. Careful brushing will, as
a rule, eliminate the necessity for
constant washing.
A good skin hides a multitude of
bad features, and gains for its owner
a reputation for prettiness, which
otherwise she might not possess.
The Austrian women who are will
ing to go every six months upon a
diet of sour milk and bran bread
have the most beautiful complexicns.
They are renowned for the creamy
whiteness of their skins and the
youth and elasticity of their DO lies.
Women annoyed with disfigliring
growths of superfiuous hair wish to
know how to remove this distigure-
ment. There is nothing that will kill
the hair roots without injury to the
skin but electricity.

GERMAN SWIDLER
WOULD WIN SOME
GEORGIA MONEY
SCHEMER FROM FOREIGN LAND
SENDS CIRCULARS OF GERMAN
LOTTERY TO THE EMPIRE STATE

Atlanta, Dec 5.-The postofficc
cleuths are trying to figure out why
the mails of Georgia have been flooded
during the past two or three days vita
lottery circulars from far-off Germany.
Whether Georgia's era of prosperity
has put her on the prospective sucker
list, or whether there is some deeper
reason, they have not yet discovered,
but whatever the cause, the effect is a
strange one.
Honest Georgia farmers who never
heard of State Lottery before in their
lives are receiving official-looking en-
velopes from Herr Johannes Schnoef,
whoever he may be, informing them
that they will be given the privilege OF
purchasing lottery ticket in the
Hamburg State Lottery.
Her Johannes obligingly explains
that the first prize is $25O,OO0, and that
nearly every other ticket is bound to
win" What he thought that phrase
meant in English when he wrote it,
goodness only knows.
Order blanks are closed for the
transmission OF funds. The drawings

Shreveport, La, Dec 5.-Battered,
brake-beam tourists with dull eyes
and bright noses shifted sadly and
dropped a tear this morning when
they passed near the cutters that grid
the city hall. For these highways of
rainwater flowed yesterday with fer
mented liquors of every conceivable
kind. The aroma hangs round them
still, like the scents of the roses on
Tom Moore's case.
The gutter cocktail was made from
beer, whiskey and gin confscated from
bootleggers. The city storeroom had
become so full that something had u
be done.
Officers knocked barrels in the head
and chopped off the necks of jugs while
a sad and salient army gazed wistfully
upon the alcoholic sacrilege that flow
ed in the cutters to the line of grim
policemen who guarded it. No one
was allowed to drink the mixture
One wayworn guest of the 25-cent
hotels was found crawling up on the
odorous food with length of rubber
hose. Another who said his name was

ford murdered her aged husband, lit
orally poisoned him to get mis- money.
Mrs. Crawford's able attorneys, on
the other hand, are devoting their best
efforts, at this civil court hearing, 10
prove that Mrs. Crawford did not muir
der her husband, and that he died Of
natural causes.
Expert testimony on poisoning is be-
ing introduced just the same as in a
criminal court, and the experts are
contradicting themselves just as they
do when a life is at stake
In the meantime, the real criminal
warrant has been held up in the grand
jury room. Mrs. Crawford and her at.
torneys are demanding that it be acted
on, and that either a true bill or a no
bill be returned without further delay
