guilty of grand larceny in Jefferson

ENfhEsSIONLESS FACE.
And SO, one Is not surprised to
learn that to a woman OF forty-nine
has been given the lineless, peach
blow complexion of girl in her
early twenties. The surprise is that
u woman nearing the half century
mark would submit to an operation
which would give 10 her face the
paradoxically expressionless express
sion of a china doll.
Not a wrinkle mars the face OF this
Partisan woman, we are told. The
contour OF her features Is as round as
twenty years ago. But--and this Is
" hat makes one marvel at the lack
OF human understan anding which
caused this woman to court such an
Cperation-just as tle face is without
wrinkles, so also is 1t without dis
unctiye expression OF any kind
This woman. forty-nine years old.
who looks twenty-five, may neither
laugh nor cry. Because, after all, the
cnly difference in the lines registered
from sorrow and Joy are that the
lines of laughter go up-the lines OF
sorrow tend downward.
Forty-nine years OF her life she
laughed and cried like any normal
woman. The result was registered in
her face. Little lines began to appear
about the eyes and mouth. Those lit
tie lines were an index to her char
acter. They showed that she had
lived. Now the index has been re-
moved and one searches in vain the
lineless, passive face for some indi'
cation that the forty-nine years or
life which have been allowed this
woman have been in reality lived.
SAYS SHE'S CRAZY WITH JOY.
"I am just crazy with JOY about
my rejuvenated youth she SAID.
But / dare not smile. That would
start the wrinkles all over again. |
would never have needed an operation
IL hadn't gone around laughing and
crying over nothing all my life"
In other words. the stoicism OF the
sphinx Is now hers. Neither able to
laugh nor cry. Can you Imagine
more direful fate? Haven't there been
times when you felt that the whole
world was against you, and you'd
have a good cry and everything would
look bright again?
And what more wonderful tonic
than a good laugh? To be able to
laugh at good joke is fortunate.
To be able to laugh at nothing 10
godsend. To be able neither to laugh
nor cry would-it seems to me
make life hardly worth living.
EXPRESSIONS ESSENTIAL
And, after all, it isn't the woman
with the baby doll face that rules the
universe.
Where would Mona Lisa be but for
her smile? Her name. II not swal-
lowed into oblivion. would have gone
down in history as synonymous with
superlative homcliness. It's Mona
Iisa's smile that made her immortal.

BEFORE SUPREME COURT
Attorney for Boston Liquor Dealer
Asks Reconsideration of 18th
Amendment Decision.

Attorneys who made the unsuccess-
full plea to the United States Supreme
Court for repeal OF the Eighteenth
Amendment decision upon which was
handed down July Z, yesterday asked
the court to reconsider its ruling.
The court was requested to review
the case of George c. Dempsey, Bos-

Guthrie. New York attorney, also
served notice that he would make a
similar appeal in the case of Chris
tian Feigenspan, brewer. of Newark,

In asking rehearing of the Dempsey
case, the petition alleges that the
courts conclusions are inconsistent
and Tepugnant to each other" and
"palpably ihcorrect and erroneous"
Such requests seldom are granted by
the court.

George Sand didn't have to be afraid
TO laugh or cry. There was no chance
OF spelling her beauty She had no
beauty to spoil. The same Is true ar
Madam de Stael. And yet, where in

exercised more influence over the male
of the species?
So isn't II animation that counts!

animated dolls" That's the way
they advertise them-"animated
dolls They are dolls that can laugh
and cry. And their sale isn't con
fined by any means to children OF the
gentler sex. Small boys, they say,
"cry for them"
BY the same token. when these small
boys have grown TO manhood, they
still retain that fondness for those
animated dolls" or course in later
years the fondness is for the real,
honest-to- goodness living, breathing
dolls" But the men want them ami

IS 1T WORTH PRICEs
IL "the eyes are windows OF the
soul" as has been said, how sad that
the ripened mellow soul OF forty-nine
should be forced to shine~through the
inexperienced windows OF the callo~
twenties, as is the case with this
Partisan woman, who has regained
her youthful beauty-but at what
price!

one. 1t is performed by cutting smaii

afterward he was in Kansas City. and
charges that he forwarded his letters

GIRLHOOD FRIEND MAKES VISIT.
Mrs Diamond says her husband was
moody and morose and frequently
struck her. They had many quarrels.
Once he remained away from homo
for six weeks. A few months ago,
she says, she was visited by "A girl
hood friend of hers, now Mrs.
Golden, whom she had not seen for

lasted until I o'clock In the morning.
Then Diamond escorted his wife's
