DOG CATCHER ROPES
STRAY blue BLOOD
Lost Bench Show Star
Tries to Chew Finder,
but Poundrnan Wins

ROSS, Aug. 2s.-By the capture
Of stray dog yesterday. Deputy Mar
sha1 Michael Nicholson reaped a re-
ward of $50 in real money and gained
the eternal friendship OF Samuel
Raphael. a diamond dealer OF san
Francisco.
The dog. instead OF being q home
less cur. was Diamond II. whose name
is printed in scores of bench show
entry books
The tale OF the capture is more
thrilling than that Of any previous
experience In Michelson's dog catching
activities. Reports were made to the
poundman that a vicious bulldog was
at large in Shady lane and that sew
eral children had been badly fright
ened by the animal. With his para
phernalia. including lariat, muzzle
and club. Nicholson started out.
The dog saw him coming and, with
snappinE jaws and growls, sprang for
him.
Michelson struck the dog with the
club, but could not stop the rush
Jumping to one side to let the animal
pass. he threw the rope, the moose
settling over the dogs head. Think
Ing his trouble was over. Nicholson
started again for the pound. With a
snarl the dog started again for his
captor. Leaping to one side. Michel
son shot the rope over the limb of a
tree and hauled the thwarted beast
into the branches. When Nicholson
thought It was safe, he lowered the
animal and muzzled him.
In his explanation. while he gladly
paid Nicholson the $50. Raphael said
that he and his family had gone to
the theater in the city the night be-
fore and that Diamond III slipped his
collar and gained his liberty.
II like the $50 all right said. Mich
elson today. but I'll catch Diamond
II with my trusty six shooter the next

WITH A BORDERING OF FUR
Coats Mostly Have Trimming of One
Kind of Peltry That Is Com
blned With Another

The definite feature of fur this year
is the trimming of one kind of pei
try with another. Some furs such as
chinchilla, squirrel, caracul and leop-
ard are sometimes ingeniously trim
med by a cross arrangement Of the
fur, but more often lynx, skunk or
fox-with sable for very expensive
wraps-is chosen, and no fur coat Of
the season is truly up to date with
jut it's bordering of fur.
For the woman of moderate means
the coney or squirrel coat is a very
cal luxury in which she may feel
comfortable and look as smart as
e woman of wealth in her extrava-
ant garments of fur, and really tho
ogue of such coats, especially in

THE BEST TREATMENT FOR
ITCHING SCALPS, DANDRUFF
AND FALLING HAIR

To allay itching and irritation Of the
scalp, prevent dry, thin and falling
hair, remove crusts, scales and dan
druff, and promote the growth and
beauty Of the hair, the following spe-
cial treatment is most effective, agree
able and economical. On retiring,
comb the hair out straight all around,
then begin at the side and make a
parting, gently rubbing Cuticura oint-
ment into the parting with a bit Of
soft flannel held over the end Of the
finger. Anoint additional partings
about half an inch apart until the
whole scalp has been treated, the pur-
pose being to get the Cuticura Oint-
ment on the scalp skin rather than on
the hair. It is well to place a light
covering over the hair to protect tho
pillow from possible stain. The next
morning, shampoo with Cuticura Soap
and hot water. Shampoos alone may
be used as often as agreeable, but
once or twice a month is generally
sufficient for this special treatment
for women's hair.
Cuticura Soap and Ointment sold
throughout the world. Sample of each

hospital bore such a reputation for
deft and careful surgery as Doctor
Bentley.
They had been engaged three
months She knew what was a com

before, unhappily; that his wife had
gone west and obtained a divorce upon

her butterfly soul desired, and which

forget the look of terror upon her
face. That 1t was the doctors child

years old, and it was only three years
since the couple had separated.

heart turn with yearning toward his
child and cast her out utterly, even
though he knew that the past could
be undone?
