Certainty of death did not shake the courage of Dick and Polly as they brought their motor car at dizzying speed to the brink of Deep Gap, into whose depth the frall bridge had just been hurled by a dynamite blast set off by Scarface Bender and his ruffian crew. Stop ping the car was ont of the question Their only hope was that their speed would lift the car clear over the abyss.
 With q word of encouragement to Polly. Dick grasped the wheel and leaned backward as if to lift the car with his mighty strength. Like catapult it shot from the torn roadway, rose under its own impetus, and clearing the intervening space. landed on it's four wheels in the road on the other side. Bouncing high in the air, it swerved viciously, but Dick quickly had it under control and when safe around the bend, he brought the car to a stop.

LIBERAL PARTY MEMBERS CAUSE LLOYD GEORGE TO
 GO SLOW ON NEW PARTY

LONDON, March 26. >- Premier Lloyd Georges plans of fusing two wings of the coalition into a new party met with an unexpected check according to the London Times, when he privately addressed Liberal members of the ministry and urged that it was impossible at present to establish purely Liberal govern ment, and that il the Liberals were to share in moulding events at this critical time they could only do so in association with others.
 Such a large proportion of his colleagues. says the Times, objected to his views that he was obliged to promise that he would go slow.

MELBOURNE, Australia-An air.
plane will be of little service in at
tempting to reach the south pole, in
the opinion of Dr. Griffith Taylor, of
the Australian meteorological bu-
reau, who was formerly an Antarctic
explorer. DR.. Taylor said he be-
lieved that the expedition to the
south pole to be conducted next sum-
mer by DR.. j. L. Cope would find it
difficult to reach the south pole by
the air route. He said:
Hurricanes blow for weeks in the
Antarctic and can spring up in half
an hour from nothing to so miles an
hour. l do not think it possible that
an airplane can rise above blizzard.
1t can not stay up indefinitely and
it cannot descend"
DR.. Taylor is skeptical as to the
mineral wealth of the Antarctic, for
which DR.. Cope's expedition is spe-
cially to explore. Speaking from his
own experience, he does not think
there is anything of economic value
on the coast of the Antarctic con-
tinent, and although coal is to be
found inland the extent of the de-
posits, he says, is uncertain and it is
improbable on account of its remote
ness that it can be mined within the
next so years.

Mrs. Isaac Lee Hills, the noted

save a mother knows of mothers

NAL woman has the motherlng in
stinct.
mice and rats are disease carriers
and their bites are poisonous. Is 1t
any wonder, then, that woman's fear
of them is natural? Men put on an
air of bravado and make fun of wo-
mems fears of mice, but the fact IS
that most men are as afraid OF
crawling things as women are. Toss
a live mouse into a company of men

with Mr.. Gerard that the mouse scare

makers, both script and pictorial, who
use woman's fear of mice as basis
for their puns should find other far
less worthy human traits to ridicule."

u. S. SUPREME COURT
UPHOLDS jim CROW LAW
High Court Decides Cases That Went
Up From Cincinnati.

The power of a state to enact and
enforce a Jim crow law that applies
to street railway traffic between that
state and another state that does not
have such law was upheld dur
ing the week by a majority decision
of the United States supreme court
IN Kentucky case.
The supreme court in two decisions
handed down by Justice McKenna af
firmed the lower court in the cases in
which the South Covington and Gin
cinnati street railway company and
the Cincinnati, Covington and Err
LANCER railway company were the ap-
pellants.
The South Covington and Cincin-
natl street railway company and the
Cincinnati, Covington and Erlanger
company, one of its offshoots, re-
sisted the statute of Kentucky, which
required them to operate separate
coaches for negroes. The companies
set up the claim that their business
is essentially interstate in character;
that the Kentucky jim crow law as
applied to them is a burden on in
terstate commerce and consequently
violative of the federal constitution.

author of that wonderful book, Rob
inson Crusoe,' wrote another great
book which gave the cause of the
Bubonic plague. If the English doc
tors had read it, it would not have
remained for a Japanese doctor to
get the credit for the great discovery.
Defoe discovered at the time of the
plague that rats and mice came up
out of their holes dying with the
plague, and as they died, and some,
times before, vermin which infested
them left them for human beings and
sometimes carried the plague infec-

the fear women have of mice is based
on a very good foundation"

LIGHTNING FIRED
THE GUN OF A HUNTER
Man Seriously Hurt in Strange Way
Will Probably Recover From
His Wound.

SLAYTON. Minn.-That stroke
of lightning struck and discharged
his shotgut, the full charge of shot
taking effect in his body. is the start
ling story told by Charles Chapman,
a patient in local hospital, who has
just recovered sufficiently from his
wounds to give an accurate account
of the details connected with his
injuries. Chapman and three com
panions were in rowboat on a lake
near here when a storm came up.
When it began to rain all left the
boat and crawled into a haystack on
the shore of the lake, leaving the boat
anchored near the bottom of the
stack.
A binding flash of lightning came,
the stroke hitting the boat and dis
charging the gun. Chapman's com
panions were Mortified to find he
had been injured. and an examination
showed that he was suffering from
gunshot wound. He was hurried to
physician and was unconscious for
several days. His story of the shoot.
ing is borne out by the statement OF
his friends, who say no one was
within six or eight feet of the gun
when Chapman was shot.

COSTLY PAINTINGS
FOUND IN ATLANTA
Modest Home in That City Contains
More Pictures of Madonna Than
Amy Other.


ATLANTA.-A modest Atlanta
home which contains more pictures
of Madonnas than any famous gal
lery in the world was discovered by
accident by a local newspaper re-
porter in search of an entirely diff
ferent story.
1t is the home of Oscar Pause,
Harris streets, a commonplace look
ing weatherboarded little house with
absolutely nothing to indicate that it
IS different from any of the other
houses in the unpretentious block.
But inside it is marvel. 1t might
truly be called "The House of the
Thousand Virgins, for it's walls are
covered with more than 1000 mag
nificent copies of Madonnas by
world-famous artists of all countries.
Spent Fortune.
Mr.. Pause has spent a fortune and
a lifetime in following out this one
| ilAterest-it is too dignified and
beautiful thing to be called a hobby.
1t may be interesting to other col
lectors of such pictures that Mr..
Pause, who has studied them all for
a lifetime, considers the Sistine Ma
donna by Raphael the greatest of
them all.
A marvellous thing about him and
his collection is that it has existed
for years here in the heart OF Atlanta
and that none of the Atlantans who
are supposedly interested in art have
known thing about it.

Smart Blouses of Vivid Silks.
Silk printed in the most primitive
designs and colors appear in many of
the smartest blouses. Sometimes in
making a handsome blouse these
printed figures are given added color
by being outlined in an embroidery
stitch. One model shown is of a silk
showing the adaptation of the flora
of the Balkans, in peasant colors,
printed on an ivory background.
The waist is finished with a
weighted girdle made of strands of
artificial silk drawn through slotlike
buttonholes. Similar effects are used
for banding hats and also for making
headdresses. On very dressy cos
tunes these girdles are sometimes
made of the fronds of ostrich feathers
knotted into long strings, with null
tiple strands massed to form the Cir
die.
Blouses often take the vest form
with side tapping front. These have
big buttons and buttonholes and
either false or real pockets. A typi-
cal model has a woven pattern show
ing little dancing figures forming
stripes or bands. All edges of the
bolero are bound with satin cire rib
bon. The round neck and the short
sleeves are finished with double frills
of knife pleated linen.
Flounces and Ruf1es.
Among the lace dresses black is the
favorite color. These have tiers Of
flounces from waistline to hem or
either side of the skirt, the front anc
back remaining perfectly plain. NJ
trimming is placed on the bodice
There is usually, however, bit Of
very bright color introduced into
these black dresses through some
trimming at the waist line.
Innumerable dancing frocks are il
ecaille or blond tulle. Ecaille is al
exquisite shade which is neither
brown nor yellow, but exactly like
some of the tones in a tortoise she'll
from which it takes its name. 1t il
also the color of certain shades O.
blond hair.
A wonderfully attractive model de
veloped in blond tulle has thirteer
tiny ruffles, each one bordered witt
a delicate gold embroidery. These
ruffles pass in slightly undulatine
waves around the front and sides OF
the skirt, but the back is perfectly
plain. The new feature in the waist
is the panel in the back, which forms
a perfect square, coming up like the
lid of box. It is held in place by
tightly drawn shoulder straps of gold
cord attached to the points of the sur
plice front. The waistline is drawn
in quite snugly by means of a tiny
gold cord.

LACE LAVISHLY USED

NEW YORK.-There is promise OF

termined to use velvet and cloth IN
the models that they made for mid
summer. This springs fashions re-

Back of It all is the Spanish in

extensive use of laces and other ling
erie materials as well as crisp silks.
The great demand for laces Great

havoc in the lace manufacturing

they were for this onslaught.
Lace is playing no small part IN
blouses. At the opening of the au-

With the advent of spring the elabo'

Little Sashes and Short Sleeves.
Little sashes, which may be cut il

that more systematic and practical
