PAOTINGFU. China. June "a
Thousands OF Chinese women and
girls who live IN constant fear OF
starvation through famine are able
20 buy their daily food by making
the hair nets which crafty the within

nets she is wearing her heart would
reach out in sympathy 20 them.
According to statistics China ex-
ported hair nets amounting TO ten
million dollars last year. These nets
were made by thousands Of women
IN their homes IN the villages and
cities principally Of Northern China.
Hair is very cheap in China. one
dollar Will buy enough hair TO keep

The hair nets are not made In the
factories. but in the home. although
the repairing and going over of the
nets before shipping is usually done
in factories.
Chinese girls. wearing faded blue

their laps.
The women receive two cents a
net and are able 10 make about 10
nets a day II the worker is fast.
A few years ago China sent all her
hair 10 America or Europe TO be

one man gets to the top, and, as Will Hays
well puts il, the thing is brought about.

thing, turn it up yourself like the little boy that
goes out to find earthworms for fishing bait. He
turns up the fat stones and the old fence rails and
finds the worms underneath Stones and rails
don't turn up Of themselves.
You see how this man is struggling as he
climbs the rock in McCay's picture. As you lool
at him you say to yourself, 'That man almost al
the top deserves all that he gets Look how he has
climbed, see what he has overcome"
Suppose that instead of seeing the man
desperately struggling at the edge of the abyss,
he had been seen standing calm, cool and com
Portable on top, with success all around him.

Arthur Brooks Told to Walk

charge Of being the murderer OF
Harry Stewart, negro, aged %, 1916
Ninth street, Moline, was released
st 4 O'Clock yesterday afternoon.
Stewart was killed by a bullet
fired through his heart the night
OF Jan. IS at the corner of Seventh
avenue and Fourteenth street.
Edward L. Eagle, assistant states
attorney, told Brooks that although
there was lack of evidence against
him, authorities would keep a
watch on him. He warned the ne
gro that an attempt to make
quick getaway from this part OF
the country, would be looked upon
as stronger evidence than any
which had been already lodged. In
fact, Brooks was advised to stay
in Moline for some time to come
and to walk q straight and mar
row path"
Alibis for Brooks were termed
weak on account of the wide diver
genee in the stories of witnesses
and the apparent effort made to
show Brooks at most any place but
Rock Island at the time the murder
was committed. Witnesses attested
to Brooks being at four or five
different places during the early
part of the evening on which Stew
art was murdered. Brooks him
self took the stand and told of sew
eral visits he had made that even
ing. All were in Moline, he said.
The negro admitted that on the
night of Dec. 2S, he had carried a
gun, as had been previously told
the police by John Hicks, porter at
the police station, who was walking
with Brooks to a stag party and
who claimed that Brooks mad told
he was carrying the gun for Stew
art on account of enmity over a
woman. Brooks denied this part
of the story.
