SHE WINS $4,000
Topeka Woman Gets Big Check for
Naming F1ashlight.

Dreams that will never come true.
This is what Mrs Katherine Hand had
thought of an eastern education for
her daughters Elizabeth and Rather
inc, until Monday when two repre-
sentatives of the American Everready
flashlight company, called on her and
stated that she had submitted the
winning name, "Daylo," in the con-
test which their company had con-
Quoted last November and that she
was to receive a check for $4,000.
For years Mrs. Hand longed to pub
lish her discoveries in the art of
household decorating and to offer
them to newlyweds, who married on
SIS or $40 a week as an income. She
states that $500 a year will furnish a
house and still leave sufficient funds
flashlights. The awarding of the
prize has given this dream a touch
of reality. too.
Mrs. Katherine Hand. a widow.
came to Topeka four years ago. Since
that time she has flayed the gaudy,
expensive decorations of the Kansas
home. Her crusade has been cOntin-
ual. She is now an instructor at
Washburn college in the Home deco
ration classes. Mrs. Hand has also
contributed many articles to maya
zines on this subject. During her
teachers career she has carried on
great deal of extension work in the
rural communities under the direction
of the Kansas State Agricultural COL
lege.
Thursday, at noon, from the state
house steps. she is to receive her
check for $4,000 from a city official
who will be handed the check by J.
T. Donahue, western sales manager
for the Everready company, and r.
H. Cowdrey, district salesman. Cam
era squads from the motion picture
companies will be on hand to catch
the ceremony for the American COM
DanV.

SPEAKS ATLAW SCHOOL
President Womer Tells Washburn Stu
dents His Views on War.

President P. P. Womer of Wash
burn college addressed the students
of the law school this morning on the
war situation and incidentally told of
the work he has been doing for Wash
burn in Chicago.
President Womer. in his talk on the
war, stated frankly that he did not
personally believe the nations honor
could be indicated at any time by
going to war and killing men and said
that the only justification he could
find for taking the fatal step was that
it would probably help to bring the
conflict to speedy end and would
thereby be great blessing to human
ity. However, he said he believes it is
the duty of every citizen to answer
the call of his country to arms and
expressed the hope that the Wash
burn students would succeed in or
ganizing a company of their own so
that they could remain together and
continue to pursue their course of
study while drilling and getting ready
to go to the trenches.

It Works! Try 1t
Tells how to loosen a sore,
tender corn so ii lifts
out without pain.

Good news spreads rapidly and
druggists here are kept busy dispens-
ing freezone, the ether discovery of a.
Cincinnati man. which is said to loos--
en- any corn so it lifts out with the
fingers.
Ask at any pharmacy for a quarter
ounce of freezone. which will cost
very little. but is said to be sufficient
to rid ones feet of every hard or soft
corn or callus
You Apply just n few drops on the
tender. aching corn and instantly the
soreness is relieved, and soon the corn
is so shriveled that it lifts out without
pain. 1t is a sticky substance which
{ -es when applied and ler inflames
or even irritates the adjoining tissue.
This discovery will prevent thou
sands of deaths annually from lock-
jaw and infection heretofore resulting
from the suicidal habit of cutting
corns.-Advertiseme

KAISER'S ARM LONG!
Man Says 1t Reached TO Topeka and
Caused Stealing of a Ford.

NJ E. Rawlins. arrested for. the theft
of DIR. T. R. Hyatt's Ford car, would
have local officers believe that the car
was stolen in the interests of Ger
many. The hand of the kaiser is not
traced directly to Hyatt's Ford but
Rawlins doesp't fall far short. The
car was stolen, he said, for the pur-
pose of transporting an aeroplane
from Topeka to Texas where Karl
Maar, who admits he is n member of
the German aviation corps and sew
ieral other notable things, was to fly
over into Mexico and join the assem-
bled German hosts.
The aeropiane has been under con-
struction at Reeds planning mill in
North Tojeka. Maar was building it
and Americans were putting up the
money. Several of the vital parts of
the plane. such as the motor, propel-
Ter and a plane or two disappeared
and the men who merchandising the
money became suspicious. Frank
Thomas brought a replevin suit, but
the marshal of the court couldn't find
Maar to serve the papers upon.

North Side Nelus

The voting at the city election to-
day, on the North Side at any rate, has
been very light. Apparently the eX-
element of prospective war has cauS-
ed people to neglect the election. Up
to IL o'clock today the voting had
been no heavier than at the primary
last week. Election boards couldn't
understand it. Almost invariably the
election vote exceeds the primary by a
large proportion. Up to 11:15 only
war or pure indifference has caused
people, apparently. to almost neglect
the right of suffrage. 1t has been
suggested that someone will have to
threaten to take it away from people
before they begin to appreciate it,

Lemons Beauty!
Strain lemon Juice we'll before
mixing and massage face,
neck, arms, hands.

Here is told how to prepare an in
expensive lemon lotion which can be
used to bring back to any skin the
sweet freshness of which it has been
robbed by trying atmospheric condi-
tions. Wind-chafe, roughness, tan and
redness are warded off and those tell
tale lines of care or of age are soft
ened away.
The juice of two fresh lemons
strained into bottle containing three
ounces of orchard white makes a
whole quarter pint of the most re-
markable lemon skin beautifier at
about the cost one must pay for a
small jar of the ordinary cold creams.
Care should be taken to strain the
lemon juice through a fine cloth 50
no lemon pulp gets in, then this lotion
will keep fresh for months. Every
woman knows that lemon juice is sd
to bleach and remove such blemishes
az freckles, sallowness and tan, and Is
the ideal skin softener, smoothencr
and beautifier.
| Just try it! Get three ounces Of
orchard white at any pharmacy and
two lemons from the grocer and make
up a quarter pint of this sweetly liza
grant lemon lotion and massage it
