A few centuries ago an old master
said: Beauty is not the possession
of classical features in so mucn as
It is the perfect glow Of health"
Tennessee might well be proud OF
this fair daughter OF the south VINO
possesses both classical features ano
the perfect glow of health.
Marguerite Martin is an ideal Of
perfect health, is very charming ane
nrettv. She weighs 116 pounds, Is
62h inches tall, and has large brown
v She is a great outdoors en-
thusiast and spends most of her tlm'
when she is not in school with ne
mother on a farm near Sheperd
where she can romp over the hills
and as she says, ''enjoy her health.
While Marguerite believes tina
most anyone can be healthy and nap
DIV if they desire, sh eadmlts that
it a great temptation to forget an
take TOO many S"SCeo'
that the possession of health is wort

To Wash Silks.-Wash your white
Xix gloves, hosiery and lingerie in
cold water and dry them in the shade
and you will not find them turning
yellow.
Burns or Scalds.-The white of an
egg applied to a burn or scald is
most soothing and will cause the
wound to heal quickly. Never apply
! iodine to any raw surface of skin.

USEFUL HINTS.

Grease Spots.-For grease spots
on silk lay a blotter under the spot
and then rub some warmed flour on
the stain. Brush off and renew I'M
til the grease disappears.
A Fall.-When a child gets a bad
fall, peel and CRATE a raw potato and
rub the part affected, and it will re
duce the swelling in a short time.

A small magnet tied to a sewing
machine will save the dreSsmaker and
housewife much time and labor. If
one drops their needle simply swing
the magnet, which is tied to a string,
and the needle (and any odd pins) will
be picked up. This viii avoid all
back-bending loss of time and eye
strain.

Mink, Russian Sable, Cara

Among the Swagger Set.

New York, Oct. 26.-Many "will
woman" vii. wear a trained seal coat
this winter. No new species OF fug
bearing animals have been discovered,
but there are some excellent new names
for old skins. The situation at the
recent football games and at the
Zev-Papyrus race show alike on the
near and the dear crmile collars
The mild weather has kept many of
the new fur coats under cover. but they
are ready TO make their appearance
with the first touch of winter and, in
til" meantime, the fur trimmings on
suits. dresses, coats and capes are
running riot. At present the jacket
dence that its vogue will shortly be
succeeded by the longer coat.
The more swagger of these are volu-
minols about the shoulders with huge
collars and long wide medieval sleeves
and blouse about the hip line. The
skirts of these wraps, however, are
narrow and wrapped Tight; around
the body. Contrasting fur frequent
ly is used for collar and cuffs and in
wide bands about the bottom.
Mink To Be FavOrite.
Mink undoubtedly will be favorite
this winter among the higher class
wraps as the skins lend themselves
to working" and blending in most
attractive designs. The mink is a
retiring animal. but there is nothing
retiring about the prices asked for
these furs while $4,000 for a Rus
sian sable wrap has been paid here
more than once in the last month.

No Black Stockings.
If black stockings are being worn

The finest of linen now is the choice
of the ultra particular for lingerie. The
pastel colors are employed as well as
white in these sets which are trimmed
with many edgings and rufflcs of
fine lace. For time after the Japan

lingerie as it promised to be scarce and
expensive. but this vogue suffered the
fate of the bicycle. Too many bought

It seemed to The people who heard

riage, that of Sylvia and Dan Har-

Of this, it was certainly of all we'd
dings the simplest. They stood there
before the mantel above which still
hung the broken half of ships wheel.
Mrs. Owen, very tall and gaunt, was
at one side, and DR.. Wandless at the
other; and old Mary, abashed and be-
wildered, looked on with dilated eyes
and crossed herself at intervals.
John Ware drew a service book
from his pocket, and his fingers
trembled as he began. For none In
the room, not even for Sylvia, had
this hour deeper meaning than for the
gray soldier. He read slowly, as
though this We're a new thing in the
world, that a man and a woman had
chosen to walk together to the end of
their days. And once his voice broke.
He who, in a hill country far away,
had baptized this woman into the fold
of Christ the Shepherd, wavered for
an instant as he said:
Elizabeth, wilt thou have this
man"
Sylvia lifted her head. She had not
expected this, nor had Dan; but DR..
Wandless had already stepped for
ward to give her in marriage. and as
she repeated her name after the min
lister, she felt the warm, reasuring

have been wholly a fancy of DR..
Wandless's that the stars came out

several thousand members.
In addition, a regular Sunday

OF over 1000 each Sunday, is held in

As the work of the prison church
progressed scores Of men, many Of
whom are in for terms amounting TO

these men special permission to go to
a church near the prison without
guards and be accepted as members.
None of the prisoners have attempted
to escape.
The prisoner from Indiana who or
Ganized the church has since been par

Indiana was sentenced, came to the

Shortly afterward the attorney was

CAN'T FATHOM CASE
Sugar and Salt Scattered Over
Drugged Mother and Baby.

DEVELOPMENTS were lacking in the
investigation into the strange circum-
stances. surrounding the attempted
robbery OF the home Of Justo Guajar'
do. 2202 San Luis street, ut an early
hour Saturday morning. when Mrs.
Ignacia Guajardo and her 16-month'
old baby we're found unconscious in
their home upon the return OF the
husband.
The presence of what appears to be
sugar and salt found thrown over
the mother and infant. continues TO
mystify detectives. What bearing II
played in the looting of the home has
not been cleared in the minds OF plain
clothes men.
Mrs. Guarjardo told detectives she
had retired about Las. after placing
the sleeping baby in the cradle beside
her bed. She was unaware thieves
had entered the house when her hus-
band and other relatives succeeded
in. arousing her from what appeared
stupor. What form of drug was
used to render her and the baby into
n state of Inconsistencies was not
cleared by investigation made Satur-
day.
The arrival Of Justo Guajardo, de-
tectives say. was timely and in all
probability frustrated a heavy haul
by burglars. Early investigation after
the arrival Of the husband showed a
rear window had been "jimmied" and
several bundles Of silk garments and
silverware. the latter valued at about
5000 piled in the back yard prepa-
ratory. to all appearances, to being
hauled away.
