DUSKY CHARMER
CHOOSES OFFICER
Della Delaney Attempts to Sc
duce Detective Cox and
Lands in County Jail.

The next time Della Delaney, col
ored, attempts to seduce a man, she
will in all probability take the trou-
BILE to ascertain whether Or not he
is member Of the Rock Island police
force. Her lack of acumen last night
resulted in her arrest and subsequent
Incarceration in the county Jail for
a 2O-day term.
Della is a genteel cullud gel. While
patroling her street beat last even
ing she ~lamped" a benevolent look
ing gentleman who was strolling
leisurely along, and invited him to
accompany her. The gentleman read
lily acquiesced and a spirited conver-
sation was maintained, until the new
found friend marked out a different
route than the one which Della wish
ed to follow. Throwing open his coat,
the nice man revealed a big star and
said: You had better be my guest
at the police station" The intended
victim was Detective Tom Cox.
The Delaney woman has been living
in an open state of adultery, so the
police allege, the man in the case be-
ing Robert Terrell, also colored. Terrell
was arrested last night and this morn
ing was given a 20-day sentence. Fred
Frazer. a colOred bell hop at the New
Kimban hotel, Davenport, a friend of
the Terrell boy, also received a 2O-day
gift from the judge. Frazer was right
on hand when the Delaney woman
was arrested, and the police ordered
him to leave for Davenport. Fifteen
minutes later Frazer was nabbed with
Terre,, and both were taken to the
station.

Verdegris is one of the smartesr

Mimosa is yellow that verges on
orange.
Petunia is the successor of the
fuchsia medley, with the purple and

ADJOINING THE GUEST ROOM
Particularly Effective Touches May
Be Given TO Oraperies, Especially
if They Are Of Cretonne.

If you have CTetonne draperies in
your guest room there are many at
tractive articles you can make to
add comfort and beauty to the room.
Purchase cretonne to match, or. if
this is impossible, a design showing
the same colOring.
Lovely bureau scarfs are fashioned
by cutting the cretOnne the exact
dimensions OF the bureau top. Cover
this with white marquisette and be
tween the top and the china silk lining
place one thickness of cotton wadding.
WhipstitCh the edges together and
finish them with a narrow edging Of
gold lace.
The marquisette softens the colors
OF the cretOnne. producing a pastel
effect
A rectangular sofa cushion can be
made of the same materials. and IS
particularly beautiful when ornament
ed with a large fat bow of ribbon in
one corner.
In rose designs the cretonne is ex-
tremely artistic when yelled with mar
quisette.
For the dressing table a long PIN
cushion should be made to match.
Finish either end with a rosette OF
satin ribbon.
Frames for sewing stands can be
purchased to match any wood. and It
would be nice to supply your guest
room with one with a cretonne top to
match the draperies.
Cover the cretonne with the mar
! Quisette and lie it with china silk
| Gather this with a heading to the
| frame and finish each corner with a
bow of ribbon. The top hangs pocket
like from the frameaand holds all the
] articles necessary for mend.ng. This
is a very useful article, and the we'll
appointed guest room should be sup
| piled with sewing stand.

the famous porker, whose only loss is

with their rich embroideries in Picking

landings make trimming galore for
stunning gown and hat. A striking
parasol in these days of unique ones,
is made from the skirts pleated and

evolved from the same, with the addi-
ton of the panels.
