"a great wave of immortality now
sweeping over the country" Repre-
sentative Louis H. Capelle, OF Gin
cinnati, this evening introduced
bill In the lower house of the Leg
islature providing for the appoint
ment by the Governor at a commits
sion OF three members to prescribe
the fashions to be worn by women
In the State of Ohio"
Introduction OF the measure re-
suited from a charge filed with
Gov. Cox today by a woman who did
not sign her name, that ummorali-
ty is practiced by married men in
the offices of the State House and
elsewhere in the State OF Ohio"
Under the provisions OF the bill
the proposed commission would be
compelled to fix limits in decollette
dresses so that mot more than
two inches OF the neck below the
chin shall be uncovered"
Another clause OF the measure
provides chat transparent stock
ings shall not be displayed or worn
in public places"
A third provision of the bill states
that "it shall be unlawful to display
or wear any outer garment trimmed
or combined with lace, inserting or
any kind of embroidery, mesh or
net, through which the color or
texture of the skin may be distin-
guished without having the lace or
other transparent material backed
with opaque material"
Members of the proposed COM
mission, according to the bill, would
have to be between 80 and so years
Of age. Not more than two of them
would have to be married men and
"of good moral character"
One of the members would be an
ordained minister, one parent OF
not less than three children and the
third a social settlement worker.
The commission would be au-
thorized to prescribe rules and
regulations for the designing and
manufacture OF women's clothing,
and to prohibit such styles and pat
terms of garments as the commission
after hearing shall deem to be Diet
rimental to virtue and chastity"
The bill goes so far as to pro-
hibit department stores from dis
play ing undraped artificial figures.
1t makes a violation of the act
punishable by fine OF not less
than S25.

OBITUARY

This community was greatly
shocked last Monday forenoon
when it was reported that W. G.
Brown had taken his own life by
shooting himself through the heart
with a shotgun. Last December
MIR. Brown underwent an operation
for the removal of a cancer from
bis lip. Although there appeare d
to be no indication of a return of q
cancer, the pain in his lip has since
been intense, for several weeks he
has been unable to get any rest ex-
cept by the use of opiates. His
suffering and worry resulted of late
IN spells of temporary arrangement
and on N or two PREVIOUS occa-
sions be had attempted to do VIC
lence to himself, but a close watch
was kept over him by the family
and serious consequences we're
prevented. Last Monday about
half past ten o'clock he was walk
ing in the yard aud for about five
minutes he was unobserved by the
family. Observing that he was not
watched he climbed the fence and
went into A.. d. Ardery's automo
bile shed where he found a shotgun
and sitting down on the floor be
pressed the muzzle against his
heart and fired. When found he
was still in a sitting posture with
the gun lying at his side.
w. 9. Brown was born in Huron
county, Ont, May Z, 1858. He
came with his parents to Dakota in
1874 locating on a farm two miles
north of Scotland. On lay 26,
1880 he married Miss Gertrude
Baker and they located on a home
