NEW CURE FOR BADNESS

Yes, they say new cure for badness has
been discovered In Boston, warranted to grow
hair on bone or whiskers on a cake OF ice.
So the man with clearing on his pate will
come in for few more bromide joshes from
the gentlemen with incandescent imaginations.
1t may serve to check the torrent to remark that
II is believed that the first cure for badness was
discovered In the early part Of the reign OF that
Pharaoh of Egypt who drowned while chas-
Ing Moses and Aaron moving day for the
land of Goshen. At any rate the Pharaoh was
bald and physicians Of his time peddled remedies
for badness so there is a case Of circumstantiaI
evidence. AS badness has persisted until this
date, It Is to be presumed that some of these
badness cures nave been bald fakes. The Bos-
ton cure may be perfectly legitimate thing,
able to do all that is claimed for it-but there
may be persons who will prefer badness to hair
not considering hairlessness as much of an aflc-
tion as constant visits to the barber shop There
are all sorts of opinions among us. you know

ONE THING IS OVERLOOKED
shaves and Saves, and Plans Bright
Future With Flancee, but Now
Dream 10 Ended.

During five years Alexander
Schwartz shaved and saved in Chi
cago barber shop: Several evenings
each week he put on his best clothes
and tried his best conversation. He
was making plans for his future.
On those occasions young woman
shared In the plans, helping him to
make them.
Schwartz shaved thousands Of faces
heads during those Ave years. He ex-
pected that after he had been married
a few years he would own a shop and
sit beside cash register that tinkled
pleasantly. His fiancee agreed that to
a bright man like him such lucra-
tive future was more than probable.
Meanwhile Schwartz went on shaw
ing and saving. Recently, however.
he had to take some time of. He ap-
peared In court before John e. Owens.
county Judge. There he learned that
in the years of shaving and saving
and dreaming he had overlooked pro-
vision for his mothers future.
lou must pay 20 week lor ner
support" said the judge.
Schwartz declared that II he did 30.
saving would be impossible.
Earn more money, then," said the
Judge.
II make only s15 week." said
Schwartz, "and II / use SO Of that for
another purpose, shall be unable to
marry. My girl has been waiting FIVE
years. She is tired. She will quit
me IL she has to walt any longer"
You must contribute to the support
of your mother" said the judge.
WAIT until you earn money enough.
or until you agree to support both
your mother and wife before you are
married."

named Mary, and Mary was the name
OF the girl wife who had placed her
baby in the empty buggy on the Brad
ford porch.
Back to Michigan went the young
husband and wife. They made their
marriage known-but there was no
reconciliation of the graying Kentuckf
ans. They accepted the situation, that
is all. Three other children came to
gladden. the home; the husband pros
pered at his practice. The wife
smiled by day and wept by night.
| Their thoughts wandered back eter.
nally to the little girl who had been
left In the little buggy on the porch.
They loved the children who had
come later In life, but there was
constant yearning for their first born.
What had become Of her? Had the
wheel OF destiny crushed out the HE
they had given? II she was alive, had
she fallen into the hands of kindly
foster parents, or was, she being buf-
feted by want and adversfty?
Conscience and fate did not let them
forget for long. Did they go to the
theater there, inevitably, tn the woof
Of the story was baby. Sometimes
abandoned Fiction that came their
way seemed to be built almost entire
ly on stories in which girl babies
played a part. Even the movies
flashed accusing pictures.
The minds OF the parents conjured
up terrible pictures Of the fate of their
daughter. At length. unable longer to
stand the uncertainty. the father hired
detectives to go to Evanston and trace
IL they could the fate of his child.
Then the stage was set by tate
The detectives had struck the trail,
but blank wall blocked the way
when they sought the name of the
man and woman who gave the love
and protection denied by father and
mother. Mary's foster father heard
and the only mother Mary knew wept.
Lawyers were called in. It was
agreed there should be a meeting or
the lawyers.
Mary's Real Father.
Mary's real father went-as his own
, lawyer. And Marys foster father
went-as his own lawyer. They met
In hotel lobby as lawyers and went
to a room as lawyers. The man from
Michigan sat on the edge of the bed.
the man from Chicago on a chair.
Tongues were silent, but eyes
searched and spoke.
"You," said the man from Chicago.
ARE the father of little Mary"
"And you." said the man from Michi-
gan, have my daughter"
Listen" said the Michigan man.
And he told the story of five years
OF hell, of sleepless nights, anguish
and regret, suffering and self-condem-
nation.
"And you listen to me-" said the
man from Chicago. And he told the
story of five years of new heaven
and earth.
The adoption of child through
court proceedings gives that child ir-
revocably to the foster parents. The
man from Michigan, as lawyer, knew
that legally his child was lost to him.
He had had and had abandoned. To
him who stepped In as his substitute
the law gave good title.
Mary will never know that when
she was playing with her dolls on
the lawn two men were looking at her
through the rose hedge Both were
crying.
Mary couldn't understand why dad
dy's eyes we're wet when he hugged
her In his arms a moment later and
she didn't see the man from Michigan
as he lurched down the street.

Decision viii Be Handed Down
Middle Of Week by Com
MERGE Commission.
esrIelAl ID &C rsLlesAA,

WASHINGTON, D. e., July 22-
As announced, last. week, che Inter-
state Commerce Commission has is
sued a supplemental order holding
that joint through rates on bituminous
coal over lines from the Kanawha coal
fields In West Virginia to eastern and
southeastern points, may exceed by
five cents per ton the rates in effect

peake and Ohio road. This decision
comes as a result Of the application Of
eastern railroads, that IL, the railroads

the Ohio river and special ruling
was made in the case OF the Kanawha
coal shipment.
The decision, which is to be issued
in few days, is yoluninuuB docu-

things, will call attention to the fact
that the new rates to be prescribed

point Of view. The commission will
hold that the situation does not justify
the fat five per cent increase on class

Will be sufficient advance on class
rates to bring the railroads in the
eastern territory additional revenue.
1t was expected that full decision
would be made public Saturday, but
pressure was brought for certain

,orable to the railroads, and it was
agreed that these would be consid.

An Educational Organization

A good many people have the wrong impression as to the object of the Womans Club of Williams. Some looh upon it as a suffrage or ganization banding the women to- gether for political purposes, others that it is purely and imply an or gai ization for reform.
 As the News understands it, the Women's Club is first and above all an educational rganization. They wish thru mutual effort to help en. tighten themselves and the town generally In secondary way this is bound to influence politically by bringing about more intelligent voting on the part of the women particularly but the men also to some extent. The intelligent study of civic questions must bring about many civic improvements, some of them reformative, and the general enlightenment thru public enter tainments brought here will raise the general moral tone of the com munity: But primarially the or ganization is educational. The women do not combine in any way whatsoever politically nor at- tempt to control votes in any way. Neither are they combined in de- Hence of any particular reform They are reformative only as en- lightenment itself Is reformative. Reform that comes thru enhghten
 ment every req sonable person should favor

such people. Why not let the good work, started last Friday and Saturday, continuc for a whole month under the same plan then followed?
 Whether this plan or some other be most favored, Williams should finish the cleanup recen ly begun and the Woman's Club and all people interested in the good name and prosperity of the town should keep right on with their agatation for this, until our town is clean. NOTE: the News is pleased to learn that the city team is still going on with its good work this week. Let's not stop cleaning mp this time un- til every lot and every alley is cleared of all rubbish and refuse.

Some Cleanup Work Done,
 But Much More Needed.

Friday and Saturday of last week, the days appointed for a general cleanup in Williams, saw many loads of cans, garbage and other refuge, hauled away to the town dump. The city team was kept busy and some of the citizens helped out by hiring teams to aid in the work. No doubt consider able addition was made to the pile at the dumping grounds, but, if we are 10 face the facts squarely, we must admit that it would be very difficult for mere observer to tell at what part of the city's strata of tin cans the cleaners applied their efforts. A great many people piled up tn ir tin cans and refuse near their alleys, only to have them left there because the city team had far more than it could do.
 What Williams really needs is not clean up day or several clean up days, but clean up MONTH. It would certainly take a full months work by the city team to give the town thoro cleanup.
 The people of Williams hire the street supervisor and pay for the keeping of the city team. Why not have the Supervisor spend a month with the team helping the people to clean up the town?
 It is getting near the time when our summer visitors will begin to arrive. A clean and orderly town is necessary if we are to make Williams so pleasant summer resort to our visitors that they will return again and bring others with them. A months work such as suggested would go far toward making Williams attractive to
