Try This Yourself

"When a man is trying to catch your
eye and interest you" says Fenwick,
"and you don't want to be interested.
all you have to do is to look with
both your eyes straight at the bridge
Of his nose. Then he can never hook
you. But If you want to hook the
other fellow, look with both your eyes
into just one of his. This simple little
trick has relieved me Of many terrors
Of self-consciousness and embarrass-
ment. "-George Allan England

Threat Made to kidnap Boy Who
Was Once Considered as Vic
tim by Confessed Frank
Slayers

Chicago,-Police and private detect
ives guarded the homes of wealthy
residents of Ellis avenue on the South
Side, following the receipt of ransom
letter by Irwin II. Hartman, million
aire furniture dealer, threatening to
kidnap Irwin Jr., 10 years old, unless
$4,000 is paid.
The Hartman home is within a
block of the home of Robert Franks,
the 14-year-old schoolboy kidnapped
and slain by Nathan Leopold and
Richard Loeb, millionaire youths.
Hartman reported to police that he
had received a special delivery letter
as the family was about to start din
ner threatening kidnapping if the
money was not paid. The letter con-
cluded with:
"Details will be given later"
Police believe a crank have sent the
letter. Another theory is that some
one is trying to capitalize the hys-
terra aroused by the Franks case and
brighten Hartman into paying.
A police guard is on duty at the
Hartman home. Other homes in
the neighborhood also are being guar
ded. Irvine Jr. was one of the boys
considered by Leopold and Loeb in
their hunt for rich mans son to
provide them with excitement before
they finally selected Robert Franks,
police said
"The letter said to watch for a
telephone call at s O'Clock" Hartman
said. "The call came about a half
hour earlier. The man told me to be
careful to turn over the money to
him and pointed out what had hap
pened to Robert Franks"
Hartman said the man told him to
wrap up $4,000 in bills and directed
him to street on the west side.

In the past quarter OF a century
science has made wonderful advances
for the benefit OF mankind. The adj

preventive dentistry. has been not

BY preventive dentistry is meant,
FIRST, the proper food for the expec-
tant mother in order that her system
may have the right material with
which not only to build a perfect
body for her child, but that the enamel
OF the baby-teeth may clacify as they
should At the beginning of the
seventeenth week of fetal life, the
crowns of the first baby teeth begin
to calcify (harden) so that at birth
the crowns of all the temporary teeth
are nearly completed and are as hard
as they ever will be-
After birth the child's food should
be so regular as TO give its system
the material with which to make good
hard teeth and develop the size OF
the jaws in order that the second Cor 4
permanently teeth may have a fair
show to grow into their proper
places.
The importance of the prevention
of decay and the resultant breaking
down and loss of these little teeth
is extremely important With teeth
decayed or lost the child is handi-
capped for existence from the stand
point of health as well as from a
lack Of proper development of the
bones OF the jaw.
This development must occur be-
ween birth and the age OF FIVE. or
Else, in majority of cases, the teeth
will have to grow in wherever they

'ped as they should.

1t IS very necessary then to pre-
crve the baby teeth until the perm

Jasper lights of way were not
forthcoming very soon the dredges
and equipment would be moved to
another part of the county where
the community had already secur-
ed the right of way and were clam
oring for ditch. The expense of
the system intalled is well within
the amount voted by the county a
few years ago and district officials
are gratified by the work accom-
plished.
Prof. w. w. Weir was next on the
program. He described drainage
systems and their necessity in the
valley. He urged the people to
spend money now to aboid the evils
of water-logged land instead of wait
ing until they were forced to aban-
don their property by failing crops
or to endure several lean years while

work being carried on here to re-

"The Worlds Slowest Driver Ar
rested for Speeding That was the
way the San Juan newspapers ear
ried headlines several days ago, in
telling one of the incidents connect
ed with Joseph Eliason S. hike from
San Francisco to Los Angeles with
out food.
Eliason left San Francisco with
a schedule of - miles per day for
20 consecutive days, while at the
same time sustaining life by Puritas
Distilled Drinking Water, but no
food of any kind. With him were
his wife and daughter and his man
ager, Joe Brown.
An Essex six, furnished by Harold
L. Arnold, was used for transporta-
tion of the party and to carry the
Puritas water. At San Juan, Carvel
Mccormick. driver of the Essex, was
so exhausted after the day 5 slow
drive that he hurried back to the
hotel, passing through the town at
80 miles per hour.
Shortly after reaching his destina-
tion, he was summoned to the con
stable s office to answer to the
charge of speeding. It cost him so
cash and $40 suspended sentence.
The Essex made all of the hills on
high gear at less than three miles
per hour, except San Juan and Cane
10 grades. These were taken in sec
ond. The performance of the car
was considered exceptional, as no
machine has ever been pnt over the
road at this slow speed for 800 miles,
as far as can be learned.
SO much interest was aroused
along the road, that every town and
city turned out Gen masse' to greet
the travellers. A curious collection
of keepsakes were donated to Ella
son. Among them are, an ancient
matchbox gun, Il six shooter
that used percussion caps to explode
the charge, Il sword, an Australian
boomerang and five horseshoes pick
ed up along the road-one for each
100 miles of hiking.
