of the United States presided.
This afternoon the lawyers and
their guests were to cross over into

now advanced by those who either
violate law or sympathize with the

Declares Men Are
Slaves to Fashion
More Than Women

BOSTON, Sept. 1.-Women dress in
fear of what other women will say
and not to please mere man. A. A
Allendorf, president of the New Eng
land Retail Milliners' association,
which opened it's annual show here,
said today.
Allendorf declared men, instead of
women, were slaves of fashion"
"They are afraid to break away
from the conventional black and
grays, dull mixtures and dark
shades" Allendorff said.
Women, he said, dread the glare of
the "other woman" and their sur
misses on dress have led to popular
use Of the word "catty." They fear
criticism of their appearance

season to another what the style is.

After time James bade his son
goodby, and returned to the coal

He found the mines practically
closed down, due to the business de-
preston, but he Immediately made
application for e job as soon as they
should get going.
"And it's back on the old job I'll
be in a few weeks" he says. SO

James fears only one thing-"get-

best exercise a man can take" he
says. "And every man needs exer-
else no matter how hard he works.
You see, exercise makes you ease up
relax, the doctors call it-and adds
years to your life"
James proves his own precepts-
in all his life he has spent only 1895
for doctors bills and medicine. Part
of this was caused by his only acct
dent in so years mining, resulting
in a broken bone in his leg.

ANOTHER BUBBLE BURSTS

Another oil bubble in Bourbon
county has burst, and number of
persons who figured in the making Of
it are wiser but not weather..
Several months ago a young man
visited the neighborhood of Hutchi-
son, this county, who claimed to be
an oil expert. He investigated con-
ditions on number of farms, on one
of which an attempt had been pre-
viously made to drill we'll, and pro-
nounced the prospects for striking oil
as being exceptionally good. The
usual formalities were gone through
with.
A stock company was formed, the
stock being all taken by farmers
owning land in that vicinity. An oil
drilling outftwas purchased, and the
young man placed in charge of the
operations. A flow of gas, which had
been previously started was again
opened, but it is said that the extent
of the drilling did not exceed over
six inches. Finally one morning the
expert" driller failed to show. up
and has not since been seen. Soon,
it is alleged, number Of what are
alleged to be forged checks began 20
appear on the bank accounts Of some
of the farmers, which, it is alleged
had been cashed by the man. A warm
welcome to that hospitable section Of
the county awaits him upon his re-
turn.
