UNCERTAIN AS TO BAsouEs
Women Are Wondering Whether the
Tight-Waisted Effects Are Going
to Prove Becoming to Them.

After the fashion of the coat basques
are now being made UP as feature of
the new 1880 modes. And again the
question naturally arises, will these
pointed tight-waisted effects prove be-
coming? Modistes declare they will,
and that women will not find it neces-
sary to reconstruct their figures, as
they usually have had to do in the
past when styles have made sudden
change in essential lines.
The waists will be tight, but the fig
ure will not be too closely corseted,
though there are rumors that it is
gradually returning to the old-time
shape from which the sex has been
emancipated decade or more.
But another rumor has it that the
new figure is curveless rather than
hourglass in outline, and bodices have
straighter effect than ever Some
have the waist accentuated by wide
belts, as in the Poiret model, which

cured me of very bad disease of the
face, without leaving scar. Pimples
broke out all over my face, red and
large. They festered and came to a
head. They itched and burned and
caused me to scratch them and make
sores. They said they were seed
warts. At night I was restless from
itching. When the barber would
shave me my face would bleed terri

wards, then they would drop off and
the so-called seed warts would come
back again. They were on my face

HAD SOME DISTANCE TO GO
Irish Boy, in Sore Predicament, Re-
tanned TO the Full His Native
Cous1try's Wit.

Francis j. Kilkenny, a Chicagoan,
and one of the organizers of the Irish
home-going movement, tells an anus
ing story about his early struggles in
America. He was a green boy, with
the native peat still clinging to his
shoes, but he was not afraid Of work,
and was determined to get on in
the new country.
Accordingly he bought lawn mow-
er and made house-to-house canvass
of the neighborhood, with the object
of finding lawns to NOW. At one place
where he had applied for work an un-
friendly dog, bristling like a porcu-
pine, leaped out at him with hostile in
tent.
The boy fed but found escape
barred by a high board fence, with
formidable row of nails along its
top. Holly pursued by the growing
canine, he made a leap for the fence,
by half way over caught his pants
on one of the spikes and hung there
helpless.
The lady of the house, appearing
to call off the dog, couldn't repress
a laugh at the sorry spectacle the
little fellow made.
why, hello!' she exclaimed, when
did you get over?"
"Begorry, madam replied the i'm
paled one, ''by the looks iv me, sure
I'm not over yet''

1T is strange said Mr. Rainey,
but the one thing that ran through

a man who had stayed out at ban
quet very, very late. This man awoke
in the dawn and saw, perched on the
foot Of his bed, an organ grinders
monkey that had climbed in through
the window.
His hands trembling, his eyes
bloodshot, the man drew his revolver
from beneath his pillow and said:

England Faced Similar Situation
in Years 1859-62.
British Consul Killed Upon His Own
Balcony and Other Atrocities Per-
petrated-Great Britain Failed
to intervene.

New York.-The situation which
Great Britain is facing as result of
the shooting of William S. Benton in
Mexico, not only is novel but even al
most unimportant compared to the
events of 1859-62, says a London dis
patch. A list of outrages committed
during those three years before the
British government joined France and
Spain in the Intervention which led to
the seating of Maximillian of Austria
on the Mexican throne, has been
brought forward in part as follows:
Doctor Duval, a British subject, who
was arrested in April 1853, by the cler-
ical general, MARQUEE. while attending
to wounded Juarists after their defeat
at Tacuhaya, was shot without trial
A British subject named j. L. Innes
was hunted through the mountains
about Oaxaca with price on his head.
British vice-Consul Bodmer was
shot dead ON his own balcony while
trying to save a Mexican.
Mr.. Beale was shot by bandits on
his farm near Mexico City.
There were several other killings
of British subjects of humber posi-
ton.
A Mr.. Burnand's factory was twice
plundered and he was severely wound
ed by the robbers, so that he lost an
arm; his wife went mad from the
shock
Financially, too, British subjects
suffered greatly through these three
years. Claims submitted by British
subjects to their legations up to April
%, 1861, amounted to $1S,000,0O0 for
such outrages as forced supplies,
"stoppage of factory" 'plunder. death
and mutilation," Imprisonment and
sentence of DEATH and simple plum
der.
In November, 1860, the clerical Gen
eral Miramon seized s660,00O in silver
which had been deposited at the Brit
ish legation as the property of bond
holders, and few months later
Juarist general seized a convoy Of
some hundreds Of thousands of dol
lars worth of silver bullion belong
ing to British subjects, and on its
way to the coast The Juarist govern
ment also suspended payment of the
interest on its foreign loan, which was
then mainly held in England.

VALUES BEARD AT $4,000
Novel Suit of Louisiana Lawyer Up to
Supreme Court of the
United States.


Washington, D. C.-What is the
value of beard? That is the novel
question which the justices of the SUI
preme court have been asked to de-
eide.
The case is that of A. E. O'Sullivan,
aged sixty-five, prominent Louisiana
lawyer, who placed a value of 100000
on a growth of his bear. O'Sullivan.
who formerly was district attorney,
state senator and city attorney of New
Orleans, contends that he was forcibly
deprived of his hirsute adornment on
election day in November, 1908. On
that day, he asserts. Paul Felix. jus
tice of the peace in the parish of JEFF
ferson, La, and William w. Stiles,
deputy sheriff, conspired to prevent
Anthony Maggiore, Michael Christina
and number of others from voting.
O'Sullivan says he went to the polls
to advise about the conduct of the cleo
tion. He asserts that a number Of
men imported to the election place by
Felix seized him and tied his arms to
his side. Then, he asserts, Stiles
seized his beard and, with pair Of
shears, cut it off In the scuffle O'Sul-
livan released one of his hands, which
was cut on the scissors.
In consequence of the i'll treatment
and humiliation thus suffered O'Sulli-
van brought suit in 1911 for 100000
damages under the federal civil rights
act. He waited until his assailants
had been convicted of assault before
suing for damages.
Felix and Stiles declare the suit for
damages was barred by the one-year
Louisiana statute of limitations. The
louisiana courts SO held, but O'Sulli-
van has brought the case to the SUI
preme court on the ground that the
state statute of limitations has no ap-
plication to suit arising under a fed
eral statute.
