(By Associated prensi

Cleveland, Dec. ga vigorous

disappeared last Thursday, was con-

was given up as lost last night. H.

fly over Lake Erie today. The
tugs Tennessee and T. C. Lutz, which
put into Ashtabula harbor after
working along the shore westward
from Erie yesterday, and several
other tugs also were ready to resume
the search.
The cause of the disappearance re-
mains mystery. No report of any
defect in the boat has been made
within recent weeks, according to
Captain Thomas w. Gould, United
States inspector of hulls, who said
the boat was pronounced sea worthy
last August.
Repairs were made to the fireboS
last Wednesday, according to Capt
Thomas johnson, mechanical super.
intendent of the Great Lakes Towing
Company, former owner of the tug
A small leak developed, he said, but
it was properly repaired.
William Nantell, one of the engi-
neers of the tug, worked until late
Wednesday night making repairs to
get the boat in readiness to sail on
Thursday, his wife declared.
The tug left here Thursday after
noon for Buffalo, where it was to be
delivered to representatives of a
Syracuse firm, which intended to use
it on the Erie canal. 1t should have
reached Buffalo Friday. The wea-
ther was clear but with little wind.

Judge Bullock Issues An
Order Suspending the
Road
CANNOT LOSE LONGER
Roadway Will Probably
Be Wrecked and Sold
for Junk

court the OCkldWdlld Ndlley hdilIodu
will suspend operations on Saturday
night. This action does not come as
surprise here where it is known
that the road has not been able to
meet expenses.
Announcement in the above dis
patch that the Ocklawaha Valley
Railway would cease to function as
carrier Saturday night causes no
surprise here, as Receiver A. Chris
tensen notified local shippers some
time ago that he did not believe the
read would be able to operate after
January 1.
Today protest was sent to the
Florida Railroad Commission from
the Palatka Chamber of Commerce
that such precipitate action should
be permitted, but tde commission
replied that it had no Jurisdiction as
the court had already ordered that
the road cease operations.
Whether or not the courts can is
sue d permit that the roadbed be ta-
ken up and the rails sold or not is a
mooted question here, as it is believ-
ed that such procedure would come
under the Jurisdiction of the Inter
state Commerce Commission.
1t has been rumored for some time
that there was a deal on foot to sell
the road to syndicate and rehabili-
tate it, with water connection so that
its success would be assured, but the
order of Judge Bullock, it is feared,
will upset these plans.
! Since the Rodman Lumber Co.
shut down and the Wilson Cypress
Co. ceased operations in the terrific
ry served by the 0. ", the revenue
has been pitifully small, it is said.
| Much inconvenience will be caused to
those residing along the line, but it
has long been local belief that the
road could not continue long to op-
crate with its present sources of rev.
enue.

Artificial Feeding of Babies
By pr. L. Emmett Holt

The sooner it is positively known that the baby must be artificially fed, the better for his future. for feeding with bottle is mol difficult after baby has been seriously upset by sev- eral weeks of bad nursing and has fal- len some pounds below his birth weight But we do not wish to stop the mothers nursing until quite cer- tain she can not succeed. Very many women stop for insufficient reasons. The most difficult period is the first three or four months.
 The best guides are the baby's weight, the character of the bowel movements and his general behavior.
 It is almost indispensable to have scales and to take the weight regular ly once or even twice a week. All ba- bies lose weight during the first two or three days and this loss usually amounts to one-half or three-quarters should be noted. This gain may be slow at first if the mother is not es pecially strong and has had a hard confinement, but a stationary weight for three or four weeks is bad sigr while a steady loss during this period is of itself almost conclusive proo ! that the mother is not going to sue

How To Cure an Oily Skin

The woman with an oily skin should do nothing to increase this over-sup- ply of fat. Whereas the woman with dry skin needs fat-making foods. the woman with an oily skin should avoid all such rich foods as cream, butter, gravies, rich sauces and dressings, and especially sugar. She needs strenuous exercises which will make her skin perspire and throw off impurities If she uses cold-cream to cleanse her skin, she should always follow it with good scrubbing with warm water and soap, otherwise she leaves oil in her pores that already are too well supplied. A good soap acts like a scrubbing-brush on d greasy skin, car. rying away with it the accumulated impurities.-From the November De lineator.

 How to Take Care of Your Furs
 As to the care of furs. it is always wiser to avoid getting them wet if pos sible. However, should they get wet hang them up to dry, but be sure they are nowhere near any sort of heat, as heat will spoil the skin when they are wet. Fur should be well beaten once | a year by a professional furrier so as to get out all the dust, otherwise the fur will lose it's brilliancy. They should be put away for the summer with pepper and camphor.-From the November Delineator.
