ENTICING SILLY MAIDS.

Three girls write 'fOn the stage, three of us girl chums who are pretty looking and young, attracted the alt tentton of three young men in a box. The next day a note was sent us ask ing u sto go out to supper with them the following evening. They asked that we meet them at a certain cor ner. We went but they did not show up. Do you think they meant to fool us, or that they were perhaps detained and could not keep the appointment they had nader"
 You should have paid no attention to the note. It was highly imprudent to stand on the street corner at that late hour. Your good angels must have been with you to keep you from danger, when the young men failed to come Strangers who ask girls to meet them on the street corners have no respect for them whatever. Ten to one they did not have the price of a meal in their pockets. Many girls who have accepted such invitations have found out to their cost that they had the dinner to pay for. Too grave a warning cannot be sounded for the benefit of girls who permit themselves to be entfced by persuasive strangers into dangerous places.

through business, that rlpen into friendship and sometimes in mar riage. If a man invites a business girl out to dinner, making excuses about not wanting to go to her home and meet her family, he has flung out a danger flag. She is a girl of little understanding who does not realize that she has encounteed a man who is unprincipled. He is the class who will order wine at a dinner. The more |jnnccent the girl the stronger the H- quor he will urge upon her. Girls in i5usiness cannot be too careful as to the acquaintances they make-how they make them and what they lead to. Any man who IS really interested in a young lady knows the way to sat isfy a girls family and herself as to whom and what he is. People meet where hills and mountains don't. It is human nature to be attracted by some persons and to be repelled by others A girls god common sense should stand by her and influence all of her acts

Women On Bench Under Russian
 Reconstruction

Petrograd, Aug. 1.-The reform of Russia's judicial system. proceeding rapidly under the Provisional Govern ment. has brought with 1t the instatu- ton of women magistrates. unknown elsewhere in Europe.
 The higher courts already have been reformed. One of the new g'ov- ernment's first acts was to reintroduce the famous Judicial Statute," pro- mulgated by Alexander II in 1864 during his brief reforming fit after the Crimean War, but abolished by his reactionary successors. The re- form of the minor local courts, the peasant courts and the police courts is a more complicated task, but virtu- ally it is accomplished.
 Chief is the reform of the Courts of the Peace, corresponding to police courts in other European states. The system of peasant Jurisdiction also has been reformed by the abolitionSof the volost courts. Before the Revo- lution the real Judicial authority in, the villages was the Rural Chief' or Zemski Natchalnik, usually retired army officer or other person without legal training, who also was adminis- trator of peasant affairs; and there fore was often in a position to justify as magistrate his own illegal acts as administrator The rural chiefs have all been dismissed and, for the peas- ants as already for the so-called privileged classes.' justice definitely is severed from administration. 4ssi
 The reform of the courts of the peace is radical. Formerly a single magistrate of the peace sat in judg- ment. Tn future three magistrates will sit, the chairman having the rank of Justice of the Peace and the two others being members of the peace court. The electoral principle on American lines is introduced. By a law of June, 1912, the old government consented to election of peace magis- trates: but the law was only partially put in force0 8s ripSss distasteful to reactfonary ministers. The law of 1912 will now everywhere be put in force.
 The qualification for voting for the magistrates has been democratized, as was demanded in 1912 by all progress sive parties in the Duma Henceforth any person of either sex more than twenty-fiv years old, who has passed a secondary school or .higner sexann.n- ation may be- e1ected9 JustieeSef Ps saee. This opens the position of petty judge to practically all women of the mid- dleg and upper classes and to many women from the poorer classes. Men and women without this educational qualification may be elected if they have had legal experience as court of- ficials or lawyers clerks. As subor- dinate members of the peace court, t." sitting with the chairman or chair woman, any man or woman who can read or write may be elected.
 An appeal will, as heretofore, lie to the peace sessions (Mirovoi Syed1. The reform makes Russia's system of petty administration of justice one of the mots democratic In the world.

What Well-Dressed Children Wear.

plicity. Trimming is effectively but sparingly used, many times being of self-material. A touch of hand em- broidery is always in place, however, as are buttons. The dress shown today is carried out in white piaue. It is designed to be slipped on over the head and closes in front. A novel feature is the cutting Of the panel front and back in one with the deep shoulder yokes. The fitness at the side front and side back may be dis posed of in either gathers or plaits.
 The little details consist of square collar, turn-back cuffs and a narrow belt. Medium size requires 215 yards 36-inch material
 To avoid seams in the front and back panels, lay both these sections of the pattern on the lengthwise fold of material as shown in the cutting guide. Opposite the front place the side back, the large 70" perforations resting on lengthwise thread of material. Place in the same way, the sleeve Opposite the back lay the collar, pocket and sleeveband, each with the large 70" perforations rest ing on a lengthwise thread. To the right of the back place the facing, on the lengthwise fold, then there re- main only the side front, with the large 70" perforations on a length wise thread and the belt, with the straight edge along the selvage.
 For dressy wear this frock may be carried out in silk, which are to be used rather extensively, particularly plaids 1nd cheeks. Combinations of cloth and silk and cloth and velvet are shown for the coming season.

Russian Swain Tries to Revive Old Love
 Affair; Riot Follows

A picnic was held yesterday after noon at 1880 Reservoir avenue and an event not scheduled for the enter tainment of those present was staged at the close of the affair. There were no deaths but four persons including one. woman were Severely damaged before the police arrived.
 The picnic was given by a liquor dealer. Andrew Jrusinsky, S3 Hallam street, Mrs. Mary Kerensky and her husband Michael, no relation 10 the famous Russian statesman were among those present. John Stoffle, 83 Ha1lam street, claims he and Mrs: Kerensky were sweethearts in the old country. He told the police they were and hence he took the liberty of try ing to kiss the lady despite the fact her husband was present,
 Mrs. Kerensky has relatives in the women's fighting units of the Rus sian arnsy evidently, for she swung on Stoffle with her open hand and knocked him away from her. This rebuff angered Stoffle and he hit Mrs. Kerensky over the head with a beer glass and cut her face. She was found lying in a pool of blood semi conscious by the police.
 Her husband then tackled Stoffle and was giving a good account of himself when two friends of Stoffle, John Hako S9 Hallam street, and George Sinchak, 80 Eallam street in- terfered. They pummeled the hus- band until the police in answer to a riot call interfered. Detectives John Gerrity and John Barton arrested the participants and took Mrs. Kerensky to the hospital. She was thought. to t,A CrIff nriva fr-o1 of he skull but this morning an examina- ton disproved this theory.
 Judge Frank Wiledr held Stoffle in $1,000 bonds and Sinchak and Mako in $500 bonds for a hearing August 23. J

PRINCE HENRY OF PRUSSIA.
 THE KAIsERs DRUMMER,

Grand Admiral Prince Henry of
 Prussia. the German Emperor's sail or brother, has been a. most ihcon- spicuous figure during the war. It i:. doubtful if his name has ever been
 mentioned in the many tales that come out of the German Empire and
 which have dealt with men in all
 walks of life in that country. Prince Henry, unlike his older brother, has always been a quiet, unassuming man, and no doubt feels that being a Grand Admiral in the German navy is nothing much to boast of these days. Prince Henry will today cele-
 brate his fifty-fifth birthday, having been born at Berlin Aug. IA, 1862. Officially the affable Prince is war;
 rior of the sea but before the war he
 was often called upon to act as trade drummer" for his imperial brother and in his capacity of travelling man for German commercial interests be- fore the war made tours of Brazil, Argentina and Chile. He will have considerable travelling and drum ming to do to re-estab blish the German trade one peace is declared. While it is true that Prince Henry carried no sample trunks and did not direct ly call on merchants and manufac- turers to solicit their orders for the products of industrial Germany, his various missions, carried over the sev- en seas in battle ships were distinctly commercial.
 Prince Henry, besides being an Ad-
 miral and a commercial traveller. is a yachtsman, aviator, motorist, golfer,
 cyclist and movie operator. In South America he made his own moving picture films, having been instructed in the art before leaving the Father land. He is very democratic, puts on no "side" on board ship and makes
 himself generally agreeable.
 Prince Henry has never entertain ed any desire to fight the English,
 as he is very fond of John Bulls is-
 land and it's people. Before the war l he visited England whenever the op- portunity offered and remained as
 long as possible. In this connection
 1t is interesting to recall that Prince Henry of Prussia, King George of
 England and the former Czar of Rus
 sia, Nicholas, resemble each other so
 much that 1t is hardly possible to tell them apart. AS an aviator Prince
 Henry has made many flights, and
 has been described as a cool daring
 birdman. He has won numerous yachting trophies.
 The Prince visited the United
 States in 1902 and was given very fcordial welcome in New York, Wash ington and other cities. It was in 1888 that he married the Princess Irene, daughter of the late Grand Duke Ludwig ". of Hesse. From his youth he was trained in the navy and | is very popular among the rank and | file of the German fleets, which for some time have been too proud too come out and fight.

''Oh, the years we waste, ana the 1 tears we waste,
 | And the work of our heart and hand
 Belong to the woman who did not know
 And did not understand"
 l A question that confronts many a young woman who is employed is
 this: Should young women make &C.,
 quaintances through business? For instance, a young woman in law yer's office is brought in contact al-
 most daily with class of men who become familiar with her through their affairs which bring them into the office constantly. Very few men are deaf and blind to the charms of a bright young woman. It is mans nature not only, to pass the time of day politely with such a young wo- man, but to raise his hat pleasantly if they pass by each other on the street, or to get into conversation with her if they find themselves together
 on a homeward bound car.
 While nine girls out of ten will not give this matter moments consider ation the tenth girl would worry as to whether she was doing the proper

 be correct to pass 9 man she has known only in business as though she did not see him, or to accept his prof fered seat and answer pleasantly any remarks he might make to her.
 To get right down to the commons sense of it, a young woman is in duty
 bound to answer any'question politely that comes up in business. Nor can she refuse to recognize her employers
 client if they are brought face to face. Outside of the office her life is of a
 thing apart. It Is for her to decide whether she shall let the acquaintance |continue outside the office. Often such casual beginnings lead into intima- cies. IA man may invite girl. he has met in a business office to the theatre
 or suggest that he would like to call upon her. While she may feel fat- tered by the attention she should not forget for g moment that such a man has not been vouched for by her ac- qua1ntance. She knows nothing of his private life, not even whether he is single or married, if he is betrothed to some other woman, or if he is heart whole and fancy free.
 ~Ihere ara men who might consider a young woman met in business but chance acquaintance, and that she was Ialr game to hirt with. Most men are what they profess to be, but 1t can not be denied that some crooks and rogues may hie their way to lawyers. offices when in trouble. These are wolves in sheep's clothing. The law yer,s stenograpiler must be careful not unduly to encourage men of whom she actually knows little, or nothing. 1t cannot be denied, however. that there are many acquaintances made

THE CHAMPION.

Tn enough boiling water to fill the container. Add one level teaspoon ful of salt to each quart Put rubber rings and caps of jars into position but do not tighten the wire clamps. Seal tin cans completely.
 Place containers on a false bottom Of wooden slats or wire mesh in a vessel of water deep enough to com pietely cover the containers Keep the water boiling for three hours
 Remove the jars; tighten covers; invert jars to test seal, and cool (not in draft, as jars might crack.)
 Tin cans may be paced in cold water for rapid cooling,
 After the containers are bookstore in a dark, cool place. 4 Rapid preparation for canning is especially desirable for corn if a good quality of product is to be obtained. The best results can be secured when one person cuts the corn from the cob and another fills the containers. If 1t is necessary for one person to work alone she should cut off suff1- cient corn to fill one jar, pour on boiling water, add salt, place the rub bers and caps in position and put the jar or coptainer into hot water at once. The extra cooking which will be given to the cans first filled will not be injurious and a better product will be secured than if the cut corn were al- lowed to stand until all jars were filled.

MME. LAFARGE

The "Cause Celebro' of Mme Ma rie Capelle Lafarge agitated nine- teenth century France for several de- cades This notorious woman was born 101 years ago in Villers-Hellon, Aisne. She came Of 8 good family, but was left an orphan when child and was carelessly brought up by her aunt Mime. Carat, wife of the isecre- tary-genera1 of the Bank of France. At the age of 22, in 1898, she became the bride of Pouch Lafarge. The lat CT had represented himself as man
 of great wealth and therefore the young woman, who was used to all the luxuries of Paris, was much dis illusioned when she was estabIisneo in an old dilapidated house. There she was forced to associate with a hard-tempered mother-in-law, while her husband soon displayed great yul- garity of manners. After sixteen months of married life Lafarge was seized with a strange illness. His wife nursed him with great tenderness, but he died two weeks later. The suspicion grew that he had been poi soned and it was established that
 Mime. Lafarge had twice purchased arsenic 'to kill rats" She was arrest ed and was then charged by one of her relatives with having stolen sew eral diamonds. For this she was sent to prison for two years. While in prison she wrote her memories. claiming innocence of both robbery and poisoning. The whole world was aroused to interest in her case. At her trial for poisoning the evidence against her was slight until the cele- brated Orfila testified that he had found arsenic traces in her husbands stomach. She was convicted and sem fenced to life Imprisonment. After being in prison for twelve months she was liberated, but died few months after gaining her freedom.
