A bottle that has contained salad or
any other kind of oil may be cleaned
by filling with fine ashes, placed in
cold water, and brought gradually to
boiling point. Keep boiling for about
an hour, and then allow to get cold
in the water. Empty out the ashes,
wash in warm, soapy water, and rinse
in cold.

Tree Resembles Map

Trees sometimes assume very gro
tesque shapes and one can trace in
their branches the outlines of animals
or birds, says London Tit-Bits.
Occasionally, too, the monarchs OF
the forest may resemble the giants
and monsters Of legendary lore. But
not often do they grow in such way
as to give the idea of geographical
formation.
Such tree, however. can be seen
growing in 'The Lady of the Lake"

long limbs give distinct impression
of the map of England.

.D|VORCEE AGAIN
IN CLUTCHES
Of LAW
Mrs. MiIIicent PaddIeford Held
in Zurich On FaIe Pre-
tense Charge
BY International News Service.

GENEVA, Nov. 20.--Mrs. Mill
cent Paddleford has fallen athwart
the law again, according to Zurich
dispatches to the Geneva Journal,
telling of her arrest there on false
pretenses charges.
The concierge of q Zurich hotel
complained that Mrs. Paddleford,
who was divorced from Doctor Pad
dleford in Los Angeles last year,
borrowed 200 francs from the con-
cierge and gave as security ring
worth about 20 francs.
Mrs. Paddleford, who is thirty,
was Miss Millicent MacKenny. She
married George E. Paddleford, an
oil operator, who divorced her on
charges Of cruelty.
A charge of grand larceny was
pending against Mrs. Paddleford in
Los Angeles at the time her hus.
band got his decree In a trial which
was enlivened by testimony of Mrs
Paddleford's experiences with the
police OF Austria and Switzerland,
accounts she vigorously denied.
One Of the witnesses included a
fifteen-year-old boy, known as Ben
jamin Teal, said to have been
claimed as son by her and taken
with her on her European trip.

FUNERAL
SERVICES

Political Leader

LEoNARDTOwN. Nd, Nov. 90.
While detectives were drawing n
net Of circumstantiaI evidence more
tightly today around two negroes
held In the local Jail, funeral serv-
ices for Joseph Henry Ching, proni-
nent Maryland politician, were held
at his home here and attended by
many prominent Marylanders.
Ching was murdered several
nights ago. His body was found
across the street from his home,
the head beaten in with a blunt in
strument.
Isiah Butler and John MIIburn.
the negroes, were said today to
have given the authorities conflict
ing stories concerning the quarrel
Monday night that preceded Ching's
death.
This quarrel had occurred in the
home Of Edna Thompson, negress,
on whose home Ching held a mort
gage. Butler and Milburn were
both interested in the woman, &C
cording to the police, and resented
Ching's call at her home in regard
to the mortgage.
Liza Campbell, an aged negress,
reported seeing a man running
away from the spot where Ching
body's was found. She was unable
TO state, however. whether the man
was white or colOred.
One Of the puzzIing features Of
the case has been the inability of
the detectives to find the instru-
ment which struck Ching down. The
marks on the body indicate the muir
der weapon was either Ratchet
or an ak, but thus far it has not
been found. Search for it con-

; His advice to motorist is:
See that your brakes are in
perfect order at all times. Test
them at frequent intervals. If they
are not right have them made right
before you drive any further.
Signal properly and carefully be-
fore you make any turn or stop.
Never start out from a curb with.
out giving unmistakable warning to
cars approaching from behind or
without making certain that you
will not swing into the path Of
.oncOming traffic.
Avoid getting into any situation
in which you must depend upon
the skill or judgment of the other
fellow to avoid accident. He may
be beginner.
Stop Behind Line.
"Do not run into or across cross
walks against the signal of q
traffic officer; stop behind the
building line.
TRY to avoid making left hand
turns at narrow, congested inter
sections in the downtown section,
especially during rush hours. This
is one of the greatest causes of
traffic jams"
He has the following advice for
pedestrians:
Exercise the greatest caution in
crossing streets.
use the crosswalks; do not cross
in the middle Of the block.
Watch for the signal Of the
traffic policeman and obey it with
as much care as If you were q
motorist. You will not get caught
in the stream of oncoming traffic
if you will do this.
Never, under any circumstances.
go around the rear end of street
car after alighting. Wait until
the car pulls away and gives you
"a clear view Of traffic approaching
from the other direction.
do not dart suddenly. from a
street into the path of oncoming
traffic."
Has Had No Accidents.
Policeman Clatterbuck has not
had an accident of any kind at
his corner In the entire five years
of his service there. He has earned
the warm friendship of scores of
automobile drivers and pedestrians
through his considerate and Just
methods of handling traffic.
The regard in which he is held by
those with whom he comes in con.
tact is shown by the fact that eaci,
year since he came to this corner
business men OF the vicinity have
held a Christmas party in his honor
Early last summer, when he was
married, group of business men
got wind OF the coming event and
held an impromptu Shower" in his
behalf.
Policeman Clatterbuck, native
of Culpeper, Va, joined the Wash.

FAMOUS RATE CASE
 FLARES UP AGAIN
Railroads Raise Issue With Util-
 ity Board
(State Capital Bureau.)

MONTGOMERY, Ala, Dec. BOA sharp difference of opinion has arisen between the Alabama Public Service commission and the South, Alabama Great Southern and Alabama, Tennes- see and Northern railroads, parties to the Meridian rate case, it was learned today. The difference is over the au- thority of the Alabama commission to require the observance of the rates which it recently prescribed on brick, clay and clay products between Bir- mingham, Demopo1is. Mobile, Mont gomery, Selma and Tuscaloosa on the one hand and stations on the railroads involved within POO miles of Meridian, Miss, on the other.
 This controversy represents a new phase of the long litigation in the Me ridian case. The railroads have taken the position that the Alabama com mission has no authority to change any rates prescribed by the interstate com merce commission in the Meridian ter ritory, while the Alabama commission insists that the federal commission by issuance of a later decision has in ef- feet abrogated its original order in the Meridian case insofar as rates on brick clay and clay products are concerned, which automatically restored the juris- diction of the Alabama commission.

ANNISTON PLANS
 s2Q,ODO PAVING
Tenth Street To Be Im- proved To l.. & N.
 Railroad Tracks
(Anniston Bureau)

ANNISTON, Ala, Dec. 30.-At a called meeting the city council last night passed an improvement ordinance pro- viding for the paving of West Tenth street from the western corporate limits of the city to the spur tracks of the Louisville and Nashville railway near the intersection of Tenth stret and Moore avenue. The estimated cost is about $20,405.
 The proposed pavement meets the de mand for an improved roadway over one of the city's busiest streets leading to the heart of the manufacturing dis trict. The road has for several years been in need of improvement.
 The paving will be of Kentucky rock asphalt one md half inches in thickness. According to plans it will be laid on a reconstructed slag base or with two inch warrenite bitulithic paw ing on a reconstructed slag base with necessary concrete structures and re- Inducements to give it durability. The cost of the improvement on Tenth street will be assessed against land abutting the street.
 At the1 same meeting of the Annis- ton council the mayor was authorized to sell and deliver to Ward, Sterne and company of Birmingham, $100,000 face value, city of Anniston, ten year, five and half per cent improvement bonds, upon payment of $100,000 plus interest on the bonds.
