FAIRNONT IS
FULL OF THUGS
Officers Believe They Are
Flocking in for the Last
Days of the Saloons.

FAIRMONT. June 1S-Ranging in
class from ordinary roughneck house
breakers to accomplished dips; from
clever second story men to ordinary
thieves who are open for engage
ments, Fairmont was full Of crimt-
nails last night and police and county
officers had more duties on their
hands than they have had in months.
officers working in plain clothes re-
ported all kinds of depredations,
none of which became serious.
That the thugs came into the state
believing that there will be excessive
drinking between this date and the
time for the closing of the saloons
on July / is the belief of the Of
ficials. Money and valuables taken
from drunken persons are always
easy and, not counting the house
that has been going on on
the South Side this form of thieving
has been the most conspicuous OF
late.
Last night officers found young
fellow trying to rob an old man, and
later an aged citizen who had been
separated from over 800 in cash.
Before midnight, two strange negro
women were caught in the act of try
ing to roll" a drunken white man.
Such instances as these kept the
night police force busy and refused
to allow the county officers to retire
until an early hour.
Don't leave anything of value in
the open. See that your doors are
locked and windows fastened. The
houses that have been entered so far
were easy marks for the thieves, who
will not likely leave the city so long
as the picking is good.

Must a home be filthy and ne
elected and disorderly in order that
it shall be evident that that same
home needs the assistance OF chari-
table workers?
That's a question which seems par
ticularly potent at just this period
of the year, when those who are
unfortunate need the assistance OF
philanthropy more than at any 9TH
er time.
It would seem that according to
the version of some people this is
the case, and that the home which
is made to look comfortable, even
though it may cover the most desti-
tute poverty, does not receive the
sympathy and assistance due it.
This was brought most forcibly
to my attention during the past lew
days. The story came from the
lips of mother one who has sac
riflced her all for ''er little ones,
and she told me as the tears streaked
down her careWorn cheeks how
charity workers had turned their
backs upon her simply because she
had not with her worldly goods lost
her self-respect. "They say we don't
look as if we needed charity pc
cause we are not filthy" she said.
Then I went to that little home
and l found the few articles Of Eur
niture absolutely spotless, the three
rooms immaculate, and each of the
children, though their clothes were

CHARITY SHOULD NOT DEMAND FILTH
BY BLANCHE DRAPER.

worn, as clean as could be and as
whole as it was possible for this
mother to make them. The tact of
the motheE her self-respect, her
innate desire for good, comfort
able home had enabled her to trans
form what might have been a hovel
into a respectable looking place.
Yet, simply because she had not
given up in despair, simply because
she had not added filth to rags, De-
cause she had lent to every one Of
the tattered garments and every
part of the meager little house bit
of shade Of dignity, would-be
philaEthropists, who would gloat
their eyes on filth and misery and
who would comfort their souls with
sense of having relieved sensa-
tional conditions, turned their backs
upon her.
How much more noble, how much
more worth while to foster that bit
OF self-respect, to help that strug
Cling mother who had done so much
to help herself than to waste char
ity upon those who have neglected
to make the best even of the little
which they have.
Cleanliness should be respected
everywhere, as indeed it is, but most
of all among the needy. And UNI
fortunate families should not be
dealt with on basis which makes
it essential for them to be filthy if
they would receive assistance.

amount for spending money, and of
this we shall each keep a separate

I'm going to keep my books up

a month. But have decided that
a great many things I shall buy
where I can get the best bargains,
and shall pay cash for them. This
will also be true with meats. I am
going to keep separate accounts for
milk, groceries, meats, fruits, etc,
so at the end of the year shall be
able to know exactly how much each
of these necessary things has cost
us. However, I'm going to keep
each days accounts so that I shall
know exactly the amount expended
each day. It will really make the
matter very much more simple

Between seasons offers the very
best opportunity in the world FOR
the clever woman to display her
cleverness.
For it's the season, neither WIN
ter nor spring, which makes the
greatest demand upon the ingenuity
of the woman who must make one
gown last as long as she might be
able to use two.
After the Christmas holidays and
the festivities of the attending func-
tons, the average woman finds her
wardrobe considerably the worse for
wear, and though she may not feel
the need of an entirely new outfit.
even though her purse would permit
it, yet she is conscious of a sense
Of shabbiness which makes her de-
cidedly uncomfortable.
But if she's clever this won't last
long. For she'll find respite in ac-
cessaries which will Turkish up her
winter gowns and freshen up her
frOcks in a manner which will be
a distinct surprise even to her.
And this year offers many oppor-
tunities along this line. For Access
sories form a very important part
Of this years styles.

wonderful transformation you may

Cleaning Coral

If white coral be simply dust
stoiled, wash it in strong soapsuds
and use brush to remove the dirt.
Rinse in clear water and drain Ind
dry in the sun. If the coral requires
to be cleaned and bleached, another
process; must be used. Put half
pint Of washing soda into an old
saucepan, add three quarts of hot
water and place over the fire; tie up
the coral and fasten it to a strong
stick. Place the stick across the
saucepan and let the coral hang in
the water, not touching the pan.
Boil it in the soda water for about
three hours: then rinse weh and
place in the sun to dry. -

Spool Hanger

A woman who does great deal Of
sewing found that a spool rack in
her sewing room was a very con-

about eighteen inches Ions fastened
to the wall by two large screw eyes.
The spools are placed on the wire,
which holds a dozen or more differ
ent kinds of thread.
She also found that pinning old

addition of a bit of dainty lace in
the form OF a fichu. That blouse
which you had felt was far too
shabby for further wear will be en-
tirely rejuvenated by a handsome
new collar. with perhaps some cuffs

you have been wearing all season,
and of which you feel just a wee bit
tired. will be made new again to

with it one of the handsome new

And you will feel exactly as

mode.
And so on all through your ward

derful power for transformation in
those little accessories which in
themselves seem so important, yet
which work such wonderful changes
in the appearance Of the toilette.
So the woman who is really re-

playing her cleverness in the man
ner in which she quite transforms

THE TAMPA TRIBCNE'S
MARION COUNTY EDITION

The Marion county edition of the
Tampa Tribune came to hand Sun
day and very we'll bore out the ex-
peetations that had been formed OF
IT.
1t filled the regular Sunday mag
azine section of the Tribune. and it
is no more than the truth to say
that it is the best gotten up Marion
county edition ever yet printed by
any paper outside of the county.
Il is not the usual huddle of cuts
and hot-air write-ups thrown to-
gether al random by men who take
no real interest in their subject and
whose governing motives are hurry
to get thru and get hold of their
money. The Tribune boys put their
hearts into their work and the result
does them credit.
The mechanical work is first class
and we'll calculated to catch the eye
of the reader and hold his attention
The Star hopes our people will
order all the extra copies the Tri-
bune has Of this edition and send
them abroad. 1t is due the Tribune
men for their good work, and it will
do our county good wherever the
papers are sent.
