Beauty Chats
THE DOUBLE CHIN.
By EDNA KENT FORBES.

There are several ways of getting rid of a double chin. First of all there is diet, and secondly, there is massage. The bes- way to eliminate 8 double chin is to try both meth ods, and also a third method, which is to make use Of astringents.
 A double chin is a deposit of un- necessary flesh. To put it untechni- cally, flesh spreads itself in fine lay CTS under the skin. A thin layer of fat under the scalp means that the roots of the hair have that much nourishnent and that the hair will be inc body gives the curves that we call beauty. But when these layers grow too thick and become positive Jumps. beauty lovers eye.
 One of the firse places where un- necessary flesh is deposited is under the chin. If you diet so that you weigh the proper amount and never qutre & double chin. But if you al- ready have one you mus not only diet in order that the body may use up the superfuous flesh, but you must also ticies of fat so that the blood may carry them off to other parts of the body.
 Then because the skin has stretched to cover these layers of flesh, you must make frequent use Of astrin- gents Otherwise your chin will not regain it's firm and youthful appear ance. If possible massage under the chin with Ice. This reduces flesh and at the same time tightens the skin.

BURIAL OF BODY BROUGHT
FROM FAR AWAY FRANCE

The body of Corbett Lake, son OF
Mr.. and Mrs. William Lake of the
Clear Run community, who was kill
ed in battle in France three years
ago, arrived Saturday and was buried
IN the Clear Run cemetery Sunday.
An unusually large concourse of peo-
pie attended the burial.
After resting three years under the
sod of an alien land, the remains of
this brave young man who gave his
life to his country. now rests tranquil
ly on the hill near the ancestral home.
There are occasions when we could
almost hope that the dead could
awaken from the tomb, If but for
one brief moment, to hear the pleas
ing story of reverence paid their he=
role sacrifices, and this is one of
them. Even long after deaths shad-
ow had fallen athwart their darling
boy, fancy sees flash of hallowed
happiness in the hearts of this young
mans devoted parents to have all that
is left of one so dear to them brought
into their home for few brief hours.

MOONSHINE and MURDER
IN TIME-OLD TRAGEDY
Taylor Mines Stage Setting
For Wild Gun Play And
Death As Finale

One of the most terrible tragedies
ever enacted in Ohio county was
witnessed by an unwilling audience
in the anti-rOom tc the Opera House
at Taylor Mines Saturday night.
According to the most available
accounts of the tragedy, Joe
Matthews, of Williams Mines engag-
ed in a wordy war with the tickes
seller, from which he turned away.
pistol showing under the bib of his
overalls and cursing everybody in
sight. Nose Wilson is said to have
told Matthews to put up his gun,
when the latter said Cd d-m
YOU I'll shoot you" and proceeded to
follow up the threat, breaking one of
Wilson's legs. inflicting an ugly flesh
wound In Wilson's other leg and also
shooting him in the side. Wilson
fell, and his brother, Job Wilson
came to the rescue with a beer bottle,
and proceeded to bottle Matthews up.
Wilson beat Matthews numerically,
and the young man is still in bed.
The tragedy of the occasion was the
shooting and fatally wounding of
Jesse Austin, an innocent bystander,
who died from the effect of his
wounds later.
The report seems to show that Mat
thews. who Is usually a very quiet
fellow, was drinking and went on a
general drunken rampage. Mat
thews did not previously know Will
son, and his violent resentment Of
Wilson's asking him to put up his
gun can be accounted for only upon
the hypothesis that Matthews was
crazy drunk.
Sheriff Bratcher went out to the
scene of the shooting Sunday and ar
rested Job Wilson whose trial was
set for Wednesday, but on account OF
some of the witnesses being unable
to appear, the trial was postponed.

OF the stolen securities $463, zoe

of the Chase National Bank, while
S27 900 worth belong to the Park Ma

The inside job theory is based on
the belief that news of the precious
shipment had reached the band thru
channels so reliable that they not on
ly knew wich truck was to carry it,
but the robbers never hesitated in
picking out the four sacks containing
their prospective booty.
Bank officials were frank in crit

transported at night thru the city
streets. The mail truck was in
charge of only one man. the chauf-

both Judge Slack and Mr.. Smith re-
ceived assurances of the support not
only of the epublicans brit o. many
of the leading and most influential
democrats of the Lewisport precincts.
They spoke at Patesvilte Tuesday
night to a crowd composed of more
than a third ladies, which filled 10
overlooking the Patesville church.
They were favored at this meeting by
the rendition of several selections of
beautiful music by the young men
and ladies of the community. Many
persons after the speaking had clos
ed, came to the speakers and assured
them that their addresses had made
a most splendid impression on their
audience. Democrats assured both
Judge Slack and Mr.. Smith of their
approval of the manner in which they
had conducted the affairs of their Of
fices and that they intended to lend
their support for reelection.
Wednesday afternoon they went to
Easton. the banner Republican pre-
cinct of the County, where they were
greeted with large and enthusiastic
audience. Everyone present seemed
to be highly pleased with the adj
dresses. Many ladies came forward I
and assured the speakers that they |
approved their official conduct. They
pointed to the fact that the manner in /
which Judge Slack and Mr.. Smith |
have discharged their duties appeals I
to the lady voters.
They were received by splendid

fluential Democrats but on every
hand leading Democrats tell them
that they are for them. One would
be surprised at the number OF
staunch Democrats residing here in
Hawesville who have pledged thir
support to Judge Slack and Mr..
Smith.
They spoke at the court house here
about ten days ago when most of the
people of Hawesville heard them. 1t
is freely predicted that Hancock coun-
ty will give an increased Republican
majority this year.
Judge Slack in his address at
Lewisort. in most forceful and i'm
pressive manner called attention to
the fact that IL is the same crowd
running against and backing the eff
fort to defeat him for reelection that
he contended against and overwhelm-
ingly defeated six years ago. He re-
ferred to the fact that six years ago
Mr.. George Wilson, his nominal OPP
ponent now. managed Judge BiIk-
head and Mr.. Ringo's campaign and
that now Judge Birkhead and Mr..
Ringo are the managers and progeni-
tors OF Mr.. Wilson's campaign.
In speaking of the integrity and
honesty of purpose that should be
employed by one discharging the du-
ties Of the office of Circuit Judge, he
said: "When shall hand back to
the people who gave it, the mantle of
office, whether that be at the end of
the present term or at the end of the
succeeding that mantle will be with
out spot or blemish."
Mr.. Smith probably made the
most forceful and eloquent address
thus far made by him at Patesville.
He spoke for an hour and after de-
failing the fact that as a result of
his efforts gambling houses and

Judge Slack and Mr.. Smith will
complete their speaking tour of Han
cock county tonight. when they will
address the voters OF Pellville. They
go to Whitesville for an address Fri
day night and to Curdsyille Saturday
night.
