much strong coffee, or the liver will act

And by afternoon your skin will look

ID. L.-Many women keep their skins
cleared of superfluous hair by using the
tweezers for all the conspicuous hairs,
and either bleach the finer ones or let
them alone. There is no reason for
being conscious of these light and fine
halrS, as they are not noticed, and may
even give the effect of softneSs to the
skin.
B. A. N.-Try massaging the portions
OF your legs where they are too stout.

Today in
Washington History
By DONALD A. CRAIG.

November "a, 1S56.-There has been
considerable complaint recently of the
way the gas lights have been managed
on Pennsylvania avenue and on certain
other streets of Washington. TODAY an
officer of the Washington Gas Co. to
whom complaint was made regarding
the condition of the lights in front OF
| the Post Office Department, at Eighth
and streets northwest, and on Penn
sylvania avenue, stated that the COM
pany has nothing whatever to do with
either lighting or keeping those par
ticular lamps in order, but they are un-
der the charge of persons employed by
| the Government.
Some citizens are charging that the
| size of the gas burners on Pennsyl-
vania avenue has grown smaller of late
and that they seem to be smaller even
| than those on some of the narrower
cross streets.
THE street pennsylvania avenue)
being much wider than the cross
streets" says The Evening Star today
IAN increase of the size of the burners
would be necessary to light it as well
as the others are lighted. With a de-
| creased size, of course. we are to have
until that change shall have been
remedied by the Government officer in
charge, only light Sutflc1ent to render
darkness visible, while elsewhere on the
streets of Washington the gas light
may well be all the public wish it tc
be-"
1t was announced today that ar
rangementS have been made for a big
procession Thursday. November 27, ol
citizens of the District of Columbia ir
honor of the election of Buchanan as
President of the United States and

him suddenly halted. He showed his

kept on moving and smashed the rear

the same thing occurred and another

Handbag Should Be Inconspicuous
BY MARY MARSHALL.

The color of the bag is usually Subor-
6inated to that of the costume. With
the black hat and black shoes black
bag always is in good taste. With
brown suede shoes which have come
into prominence lately brown suede
bags or bags of brown silk are we'll
chosen. Usually it is only the young
girl who chooses one of the spectacular
sort of bags. The automobile-shaped
bag shown in the sketch is one of these
amusing bags that we may wisely choose
as a Christmas present for the girl of

DEFENSE BAZAAR
PROFITS $1,000

BOSTON, March, Am announce
ment made yesterday by A. Rogers,
in charge of the arrangements of the
recent day bazaar held here by the
Joint Defense and Relief Committee
of the Cloakmakers and Furriers,
states that the income of the bazaar
far exceeds the amount hoped for by
the most optimistic members of the
committee. Slightly over $4,000 clear
profit was realized.
Two hundred dollars of this amount
will be given to the Miners Relief
Committee, which represents the
profits of special booth maintained
by them. The announcement of the
income derived was received by the
workers in the needle trades market
with extreme qualification, since
many of the workers did not believe
that the progressive needle trades
movement was powerful enough to
carry thru so big an affair due to
widespread unemployment. It h e

March labor Defender
Features Mine Strike
And 1S71ParisC Commune

Twenty-four illustrated pages of
material which furnishes a mirror Of
the struggle in the United States and
other parts of the world compose the
March miners Strike Number" of
the Labor Defender.
The cover of the magazine is from
one of the photographs made famous
by Lewis Hines, showing one Of the
miners now out on strike, his face
scanned with coal dust and toll, mount
ed with the miners cap and lamp.
The coal strike is further illustrated
by a double-page spread of photo
graphs from the strike zone, and .
contrast picture that compares the
conditions of the rich idlers at Miami
Beach, Florida, and the barracks
housed miners Of Pennsylvania and
Ohio. T. J. O'Flaherty, well-knowr
labor writer, has written an article
from the field for this issue which
describes the conditions of terror and
misery under which the miners are
conducting their heroic struggle.
The anniversary of the Paris Com
mune is aptly commemorated by an
article from the pen of Harry Cannes,
which is illustrated by some rare
photographs, hitherto unpublished in
the United States, Of scenes during
the Commune, showing barricade
fights, and pictures Of some of the
leaders Of the first workers republic.

Seattle Teachers Will
Fight for Higher Pay

SEATTLE, March 1.-The High
School Teachers League here will
fight for higher salary increase in
spite of the raise that was recently
granted to them.
According to the new schedule, the
maximum wage of school teachers in
high school or public school who have
a Master of Arts degree has been
raised from S2,400 to $2,700 year.
"The annual increase of $40 does
not bring even a feeling of tenn
porary jubilation to teachers already
long underpaid," said o. K. Stad-
dard, member of the publicity COM
mittee of the Teachers Union, local
200.
Altho yearly increase Of $40 to
500 was granted, the beginning wage
for teachers has been lowered in all
cases, the elementary school teachers
receiving S1,500 and the high school
teachers $1,000 a year. This is $50
less than the old scale.

TALK OF RELIEF
Second Plea Follows
Weak First Move

WASHINGTON, Mar. IA second
appeal for miners relief has been is
sued here by the American Federation
of Labor. Support is asked in the
form of money, food and clothing for
the striking miners of western Penn
sylvania, Ohio and northern West
Virginia.
This second appeal is interpreted
as an indication Of the seriousness Of
the crisis in the miners union of
which even the reactionary A. F. of
L. officialdom backing the Lewis ma
chine is forced to take account.
The first appeal which brought
small results has remained unorgan-
lied. Its failure was due it is believed,
partly to the ineffectiveness of the A.
F. of L. methods and partly to the
distrust of the rank and file of the
labor movement.
Nearly eight months of the strike
passed before the A. F. of L. even
spokebof general relief.

public utility or other corporations is
on mingling on the floor of either

Representative Green, of Iowa, al
though chairman Of the powerful
ways and means committee, opposed
some of the demands of big business,
and particularly, the repeal Of the

ence on the, committee defeated the
tremendous propaganda of the advo-
Gates of the abolition of that tax. Ac-
cordingly, he was appointed judge

he was getting along in years, and
would probably find himself in old
age dependent on the administrator

which his irregularity might have
prevented him from getting--hc de-
cided to accept. And the anti
