md positions for persons out of work

eases by the power of the mind. The
SPECIFIC charge against him is send
ing such matter through the mails
Jan. Is, 1915.
Kings arrest was caused by Post
office Inspector H. G.. Reese who.
under an assumed name, that of
woman, supposed to live in Lakeland,
began a correspondence with King
ana asked to be treated by mental
means. AS the correspondence con-
tinued Reese continuing to pose as
me Lakeland woman) was supposed
to have received much benefit. Yes
terday a consultation between doe
tor and patient was arranged. In
spector Reese, not being willing to
continue the impersonation to the
extent OF wearing women's clothes,
got Deputy Marshal Rennolds to find
some one who would act the part.
Young Woman Poses as Patient
Deputy Rennolds was fortunate in
being able to secure the services of
young woman said to be from San
Francisco and whose name was not
given for publication. Although only
eighteen years of age, this young
woman carried out her part to fin
ish. combining good looks and natur-
al wit She accompanied Deputy
Marshal Rennolds to Or" Kings
residence and got him to admit his
identity, which was the main thing
desired. Mr.. Rennolds then told
him he had been trapped and that he
must go to the Federal building.
At meeting held before Commits
sioner II. l.. Crane yesterday after
noon numerous letters in the posses
sion of Inspector Reese were used in
hn 1nf
plea of guilty and was held under
$500 bond for the next term of Unit
ed States court. In default of bond
King was placed in the county Jail.
Schedule of Charges
Charges made by King for various
services to his patients, according to

to bring back missing or absent
person, SO to $25; chronic diseases.
S. per treatment; criminal cases, SIS
to SIS; to make peace in the family
cure tobacco habit, Sis; cure NOR
phine habit, $40. In his corre-
spOndence King is alleged to have
said that to treat husbands to keep
them home and make them behave
was comparatively easy, but that to
get persons out of Jail was exceed
ingly difficult and sometimes required
as long as two years. He also adver-
tised that he would undertake to in
fluence juries to release defendants
The first the postal authorities
heard of King was when he started
answering position wanted" adver-
tisements in local newspapers. He Is
alleged to have offered advertisers
that he would assist them in getting
work by prayer, and to others he is
ALLEGED to have offered to pay a com
mission if they would get patients
for him.

TODAY'S BEAUTY HINTS

To whiten and beautify the
complexion permanently we have
found no better preparation than
a lotion made by dissolving four
ounces of spurmax in half pint
of hot water, then adding two tea
spoonfuls glycerin. This removes
any pimples, shiny, muddy or sal
low appearance, and will make
anyone's skin clear, smooth and
velvety. 1t does not show or rub
off like powder; in fact, 1t seems
a part of the skin; and for remov-
ing tan and freckles Is unequaled.
1t is necessary to shampoo more
frequently in the warmer weather
because of excessive dust and the
fact that the head perspires more
and is usually more exposed to
the weather. The easiest to use
and quickest drying shampoo that
We can recommend to our readers
can be prepared very cheaply by
dissolving teaspoonful of can
throx, obtained from your drug

COTTON
CRISIS
FEARED

WASHINGTON, d. c., Aug. II.
With the certainty that the
allies soon will declare American
cotton contraband, and refuse to
permit any of it to be shipped to
.belligerent countries, the state
department today faced one of
the most serious crisises of the
war.
1t Is preparing to protest the
allies decision sharply as soon as
it is received formally. This Ia
believed to be matter of days.
The matter takes on more
serious aspect because it Is known
that pro-German interests have
lined up many Southern congress-
men in an agreement to stop the
expectation of all war supplies,
unless greater freedom were Civ.
en- the shipment of their cotton.
1t is known the decision of the
allies thus will arouse bitter anti
English feeling in the Southern
states.
The state department will make
every effort to prevent this
threatened situation from coming
to a head.
