BRITTON LOSES
SECOND ROUND
Injunction to Prevent Sen
tence from Going Into
Effect Dissolved.
TRY APPEAL METHOD,

Patrolman Edgar Britton lost the
second round of his legal fight against
the charges of conduct unbecoming a
police officer filed against him by
Harry M. Baldwin, when Attorney
Lewis W. Powell, acting as court COM
dissolved the injunction Sc
cured several days ago to prevent
Chief of Police Thad Logan to inflict
the sentence of being deprived of five
days vacation as imposed by City
Manager Osborn after a hearing of
the charges.
Court Commissioner Powell held
that he had no jurisdiction in the
case and that the injunction was not
binding. Attorney Vaudreill repre-
senting Patrolman Britton announced
Immediately that formal appeal from
the decision of City Manager Osborn
to the Circuit Court would be filed
during the day and that this would
prevent the sentence from becoming
effective pending the outcome of the
appeal.
Found Guilty at Hearing.
Patrolman Britton was found guilty
of conduct unbecoming an officer af-
ter City Manager Osborn held hear
ing as result of the charges made by
H. M. Baldwin following the latter's
arrest after an alteration took place
between him and the patrolman on
Market street several weeks ago. The
case was most bitterly contested and
attorneys for the defense maintain
that they will seek complete exoner-
alton for Britton carrying the case to
higher courts if necessary.

under various surgical conditions.
Your interest in these re

them to definite terms science
has pointed out to you the way
to adjust yourself to their re-
quirements and make for your
health and happiness.
Thus If you go to the table
alone, and IL nothing happens to
divert your attention, you nAtur-
ally go on thinking about your
business or about your enemies,
or something else to ''rile you
up" without. knowing whether
you are eating Strawberries, slap
jacks or bacon.
The moment you do this you
lessen the secretion Of gastric
juice and permit your food to lie
heavily within your stomach. 1t
is for this reason that many busy
men whose seconds are worth
dollars find it profitable, not
only for their health but for
their efficiency. to go to a club
and take their midday meal with
friends. Many make this hour
all the more profitable and
pleasant by playing dominoes or
checkers or chess with their
luncheon served on a side table,
Great shops and manufacturing
plants find it equally profitable
to furnish mental relaxation in
the middle of the day for their
employees.
At home with the family or
friends assembled, every meal
should be enlivened with cheer
full conversation. a smile as the
condiment for every bite and a.
hearty laugh as the sauce for
every course.

The boiling of food means de-
fective chewing, and defective
chewing means defective diges-
ton of food in the mouth where
the starches are largely con-
verted into sugars by the action
If the saliva.
It also means difficult, unduly
prolonged and often more or less
incomplete digestion in the stom-
ach, because digestion begins on
the outside of the food particle
and works inward, so the larger
the particles the more prolonged
the digestion.
But the really more imortant
reason why you should not eat
alone is found in the natural law
that mental states modify diges-
tive processes.
1t is known, for instance, that
fear or anger or grief may entire
ly suspend digestion.
1t is also known that long sus-
tanned mental effort of any kind
tends to lessen appetite and
lower digestion.

and More Every Day

Not 50 long ago a renowned authority
On the care of the complexion said:
''Show me person who has ugly black
heads in their face and neck. and I will
show you one who is either not giving
theft skin any attention and care at all,
or is careless in not using theron sure
and easiest way to keep these complex
ION runners away"
How true this is. Women and girls
especially will try to. hide blackheads
instead of getting rid of them. and it is
really so easy. to do it that there is no
excuse for anyone being Inundated by
going along the street showing that they
do not give their skin the proper care
Just take a few seconds every night
and first clean the face with Black and
White Cleansing Cream; then, after
wiping this off with a towel, apply a
film of Cold Cream to be absorbed by
the skin to supply the oils which the
wind and weather have beaten out dur
Ing the days exposure.
This makes your skin live, active, and
6lackheads literally wash out after you
do this one or two nights. because they
are softened and forced out by the fine
ingredients used in making the Black
and White Beauty Creations. You will
be so delighted with the way these crea-
tions make and keep your skin clear
rosy and charming that you won't let a
ntght go by without giving your face

Autumn coats. 1t is a novel
weave in the beige and castor
shades. A smart coat is cut on
straight lines, flaring ever so
little, and buttoned close about
the throat for windy days. A
great turnover collar may also
be let down when the weather
permits, and there are long
sleeves that flare at the wrists.
This coat is lined with crepe de
chine and comfortably interiined
for added warmth.
There are many mannjsh home
spuns and tweeds and plaid
woolens that create fine looking
top coats with great, deep pockets
and big, comfy collars. All these
coats are silk lined and many are
interlined.
Among the more expensive top
coats designed to wear over the
afternoon gown are some stun
ing models in rich, soft. velvety
cloths, plain tailored or lavishly
trimmed with squirrel. beaver,
wolf, lynx, fox or cabled fitch.
Even at this early date one
sees the short fur jackets so well
liked by the younger set for
sports wear and informal occa-
sions. The beige caracu1 retains
it's popularity, and there is con-
siderable vogue at present for
white caracul and white rabbit

Clever wrap-around coats are

that drape so gracefully. The

tucked in a criss-cross design.
