and led out to be executed The
heads of the six were quickly chopped
off, but by mischance when the knife
descended upon Wong's neck 1t did

a gaping wound. This was taken as

Wong was taken TO the yamen of

Young Casper disappeared early in

him 10 the bank TO deposit $1,000.
The money never reached the bank

In 1913 his mother died. Two years

Any secret process to manufacture
anything is one of the favorite founda-
tionS on which to construct a swindle.
1t seems to cloak charlatanism and fur
nish> tempting appeal to human
credulity. Not long ago a company
was formed in one of the large east
ern cities to make cosmic bearings for
automobiles and airpanes The proc
ess was to be kept secret, ii being
decided not to even patent the process
because of the danger of its being
stolen.
When the secret was revealed at n
directors meeting, after the proper
amount of stock had been disposed of.
it read as follows: "To 100 pounds
of metal add four ounces of horse
hOof parings, three ounces of borax.
two ounces of powdered glass, and
one ounce of sea salt. After copper,
lead, and tin are fluid, put in horse
hoof parings and stir well, then add
glass, borax, and sea salt combined,
then stir"
A Good Formula.
Not the least amusing thing in rela-
ton to the formula was that it is all
right. The company expected to make
the concoctiOn at cost of IS cents a
pound, and sell it at S5 cents, but a
subscriber to the stock who could not
quite fathom where the horse -hoof par
ings came in began an investigation.
despite the fact that he had been sworn
to secrecy. He learned that foundry
men throughout the country had been
using this formula for half century,
and that the product could be sold by
them for IL cents pound. or 8 cents
cheaper than 1t cost the company to
manufacture it. The officials of the
stock company were arrested. but. 1t
is said, they had taken in more than
$575,OOO through the scheme.

From the time a girl reaches the

The condition that the girl Is then

her future happiness and health, that
1t is almost criminal for a mother or
guardian to withhold counsel or ad-
vice.
Many woman has suffered years
OF prolonged pain and misery through
having been the victim of thought
lessness or ignorance on the part of
those who should have guided her
through the dangers and difficulties
that beset this period
Mothers should teach their girls
what danger comes from standing
around with cold or wet feet. from
lifting heavy articles, and from over
working. Donot let them over-study.
Ii they complain of headacne, pains
in the back and lower limbs, they
need mothers thoughtful care and
