After the first days work at the e1-
hibition Mrs Swan awoke and found
herself-for the time eing-famous.
Somehow her stunt had proved to be
one Of the most popular at the exhibi-
tion, and every reporter sent to get a
story about the show played her up.
The result was increased customers.
They stood three and four deep at the
fence that surrounded her booth. At
the end of the nine days Mrs. Black
awarded her twenty-fve-dollar prize
for the most original occupation to
Mrs. Swan. That, with the money
earned from cutting the silhouettes,
made a neat beginning for Mrs.
Swans business career.
As an outcome of the exhibition Mrs.
Swan received an offer almost imme-
diately to go into little favor shop
with two other women where she
could make and sell her unusual cards
and curious cut-outs. Mrs. Swan ac'
| cepted the offer, for she had taken a
good number of orders at the exhibition
and was sure that more would follow.
So successful was Mrs. Swans end of
the work that before many months
had passed she borrowed capital
enough to buy out her partners and
began to run the business by herself
She took her sisters in business with
her and now keeps a staff of young
girls working for her. Her success
has been phenomenal.
Mrs. Swan could keep busy all the
time designing unusual cards and ia
vors in her little shop, but she some
times emerges from the hiding place
to cut her impressions Of things out
side. At a children's party she ap
peared dressed as large pippin apple

with funny, chubby face painted OF

PARTY were told to write down any
word on piece of paper and to pusf
it into the apples funny mouth. Then
as she danced jig around the room
she cut out the figure that word sug
gested to her and pushed it through
the mouth, and the resultant shape;
fanciful sprite or weird animal, goblin
or fairy delighted the little peopl,
whom she studied to amuse.

How French Women Rux.

Every nation would seem to have
its distinctive talents, and the French
woman proves herself a past mistress
in the art of dress. She does not spend
as much as the woman of other ma
tions. She has fewer garments, but they
are all chosen because they are be.
coming, well thought out and we'll put
on. When a French woman is choos-
ing her clothes she buys everything
wanted at once to go with each other,
and calculated to make a perfect
whole. She gives herself plenty of
time and does not choose anything
by hazard. She recognizes the task
as an important business, which re-
quires due consideration. A French
woman is really economical, and,
having chosen handsome dress and
hat, does not neglect to have good
gloves. She does not attach i'm.
portance to spending a large sum Of
money, but to giving great delibera.
tion to her choice, knowing that II
will have to serve her some time, and
she leaves nothing incomplete.

Boy SIeep-WaIker Cured.

An eleven-year-old boy somnambu.
list, who from infancy had been in the
habit of prowling around at night in
his sleep, and who practically has
been cured by means of treatment
was exhibited by DR.. P. L. Hodges be-
fore the District Association of Oste.
opathic Physicians at a meeting held
in the Office of DR.. George D. Kirk,
patrick at Washington.
On numerous occasions the boy had
almost walked out of open windows in
his sleep, and several times he had
gone out into the street in his night
shirt utterly unaware Of his actions,
1t usually was necessary to splash wa.
ter in his face to wake him.

Road Contracts Are Held Up.

Payment of some 100000 worth Of
road contracts entered into last year
by former State Highway Commission.
er James R. Marker is held up indeh.
nately by a ruling of Attorney General
Turner to the effect that no liabilities
incurred by the department before
Feb. 16 of 1915 can be paid from any
Of its present funds. 1t is also held
that no new contracts can be made
until after the money for this is col
lected after the August settlement.
The decision throws a monkey wrench
into the entire highway machinery Of
the state, according to Highway Com
missioner Clinton Cowen. He said
that there is no way of telling now just
how many million dollars worth Of
road improvement work will be tied
up until the tangle into which the rul
ing has precipitated the department
has been Strengthened out. The attor-
ney generals department blames the
new Appropriation law enacted by the
present general assembly for the pre-
dicament into which the highway de-
partment and all counties interested
In good roads improvements are
plunged. Just what steps should be
taken to relieve the situation has not
yet been determined.
Civil Service Ripper Half Law.
The civil service ripper" is now
half a law. The house just rGcent-
ly passed tire Moore-Barnes bill,
which practically legislates oat of
office most of the present civil service
incumbents in state, city, county and
school positions who have taken non
competitive examinations and who
have been in their positions less than
seven years. All important amend
ments, including a proposal to permit
ousted fire and police chiefs to appeal
! to the state civil service commission
! for redress, were defeated. The meas
hure now goes to the senate, wheIe its
opponents will make their last stand
There is much controversy here as tc
whether the bill as 1t passed the
house disturbs the tenure of members
of the police and fire departments
Supporters of the measure, including
its two authors, insist that it makes
such tenure stronger, while Others
argue to the contrary.
Makes Controversy Acute.
The question regarding the politica
rights of women is before tie Assem-
bly,, but this time not in the form o
the suffrage question. The discussion
now relates to whether women cal
serve on state nurses registration
board which would have charge of tn
certification of those who minister t.
the sick. The senate has made tn
controversy acute by taking the pre-
posed nurses board out of the jurisdiC
ton of the state medical board an
making it a separate body.

spectators at ten or ffteeu r.nts
apiece.
1t would be good fun. thougdt Mrs.
Swan, and she would at least earn
little. Meantime she might be able to
take some orders for future cutting.
She prepared some sample dinner
cards, dance cards. Easter cards and
tissue paper dance favors, painted
them and had them displayed in her
booth.
Mrs. Swan had always had the gift
of what psychologists call quick and
vivid visual imaging. You Know that
there are some people who, if they
hear the word dog" Immediately hear
in their minds ear the barking of a
dog. To those people the psycholo-
gists ascribe the gift OF auditory i'm
aging. The majority Of people when
they hear the word dog" have more
or less vividly picture in their minds
eye of a nondescript canine. and they,
like Mrs. Swan, are gifted with visual
imaging. Only Mrs. Swans gift Of
visual imaging does not stop with
things you can see, like dogs. 1t ex.
tends to things you can't see, like a
New England conscience and a
southern accent"
At the exhibition Mrs. Swan made
use of this peculiar gift. People who
came to her had but to name some
thing they were thinking about and
Mrs. Swaff would cut out her impress
sion of it.
Cut out your impression Of love,
suggested the sentimental schoolgirl
as she deposited her fifteen cents be
| fore Mrs. Swan, who Immediately be
gan to snip the paper. Then she helC
out a perfect silhouette of her impres
sion-a mixture of goblin and n Gu
pid, with large ears and cane in hi!
hand.
"He has a cane" Mrs. Swan ex
| planned, because he is totally blind
His large ears show that he is cage
to hear things, and there are littl
horns on his head, too, to show tina
love likes to be little devilish, bu
really can't"
Her next visitor, a dreamy poet
asked for "elation over the approac
of spring" Someone else suggester
militant suffragette and then cam
such various suggestions as plum puc
ding, mischief, gloom, wine, prickl

skill in handling her scissors that sh
proved herself to be silhouette Gu

naise dressing and fill lemon cups
with the mixture. Place each on a
small plate, covered with a dolly.
A most delicious salad and one easy
to prepare is crisp fresh lettuce
dressed with a French dressing to
which has been added a tesspoonful
of tomato catchup, a tablespoonful of
chopped green pepper, teaspoonful
of minced parsley and a tablespoonful
of chopped onion. Shake or beat well
with a Dover eggbeater, and serve
very cold. The dressing is best passed

move and add tablespoonful of va
nilla. Put all through the meat grind
er and to clean the grinder finish with
three or four crackers which may be
added to the paste. This will keep if
packed in jars indefinitely and is deli,
cious as a sandwich filling for any
kind of bread or crackers. Used with
two kinds of bread, the slices pressed
together and then cut like cake makes
a most attractive sandwich.
cocoanut Sandwches.-Take a cup
full of freshly grated cocoanut, hall
cupful of chopped almonds, a tea
spoonful of lemon juice, two teaspoon
fuls of powdered sugar and three Ia
blespoonfuls of thick cream. Spread
