Many a mother knows what her sons

can be made lucrative. It may be with

and most acutely, the bereavements
which have come upon him, but we
may very fairly suppose that among
the many visitors he must have there
may be some who cannot understand
that it is proper, decent, or even posi-
BILE, to hide those finer emotions deep
in the heart.
He Immediately began conversing in
his usual style, the chief topic being
Capt. Denham (whom I had recently
seen in London) and his book of Afri-

ones. Stockings should be washed i'm
mediately after being worn and should
be rinsed in boric acid solution. The
insides of the shoes may be sponged
with an antiseptic such as 5 per cent

makes a solution of the desired
strength. Alcohol may also be used
for this purpose.
Before fresh stockings are put on

Odors.

One of my readers wants to know
whether the prevention of the odors
of perspiration comes within the sub
jects dealt with in this department,
and if so, she asks me to tell how to
deodorize shoes and the underarmS Of
dresses. The problem here raised GER
tainly pertains to feminine charm and
attractiveness and should find a place
in every beauty column. Indeed, I
think that it deserves much more at
tention than it receives.
The extensive advertising campaign
being conducted by makers of soap is
awakening many people to the fact that
the presence of stale perspiration odors
about ones person is social offense
of the first magnitude. Many girls
and women who should know better
offend in this way constantly. They
are careful to change their underwear
daily, but will wunr the same frock
and shoes day after day without hav-
ing them cleaned.
The only way to prevent disagree
able odors from the feet is to cleanse
them daily and change stockings and
shoes at least once day. When the
offensive odor is due to disease, as is
sometimes the case, medical treat

Today in
Washington History
By DONALD A. CRAIG.

December 3, 1858.-The Circuit Court
has just decided a case of great interest
to the citizens of Washington, and the
decision, with an outline of the testi-
many, as reviewed in the courts opin-
ion, was today made available to the
public. The people of this city are
thus informed of the extent of the pro-
lection they now have against the negli-
gence of the city authorities in regard
to highways, bridges, streets, etc, under
their care and charge. No case of a
local nature in recent years has aroused
such general interest as this.
The corporation of the city was
charged by the plaintiff, whose name
is not mentioned in the public press,
with the duty of keeping in repair the
bridge over Rock Greek at K street, and
it was further charged that on May 20,
1854, the said bridge gave way and
fell into the creek, carrying with it the
vehicle in which the plaintiff was rid
ing, inf1icting damage to the vehicle
and injury to his person. A plea of
not guilty was entered on behalf of the
city corporation.
Among other claims, the corporation
contended that the bridge was con-
structed over a navigable stream and
that portion of it was beyond the city
limits. It was also claimed that the
City Commissioners had, through their
inspector, performed the required duty
of inspecting the bridge, and that the
inspector had not reported it in need of
repair or in a dangerous condition. The
city also produced evidence to show
that never before had there been an
accident or any other occurrence at
this bridge to indicate that it was un-
safe.
But the commissioner of the first
ward testified that he crossed the
bridge a few days before it fell and it
was "tremulous and shook so violently
that he was apprehensive that it would
fall" Other witnesses declared that
they had observed that some of the
braces of the bridge were broken.
Nevertheless, the court decided that
the plaintiff was not entitled to recover
damages, to which decision the plain
tiff noted an exception.
So much public feeling has been
aroused by this case and by the failure
of the court to grant damages that
many persons, including the editors of
the local newspapers. demanded today
that the case be appealed to the Su
preme Court for review.

My Neighbor Says:

In cleaning real lace spread 1t
out on a sheet of white paper.
Cover with fine calcined magne-
sia, place another paper over 1t
and press between two pages of
a bulky book for a day or two.
The powder may then be shaken
off and the lace will be quite
clean.
If you use sheets of two differ
ent sizes, one for single and one
for double beds, fold sheets for
double beds in a large square and
those for a single bed in smaller
squares. You should then have
no difficulty in finding the right
sheets.
To brighten faded carpets wipe
them with warm water, to which
ammonia has been added in the
proportions of one tablespoonful
to a quart of water.
When plates and dishes have
to be warmed on an oven top or
in an oven, If a newspaper is
put underneath, it will prevent

Everyday Law Cases
Has Travelling Salesman Authority
To Agree That Unsold Goods
May Be Returned?
BY THE COUNSELLOR.

Solicited by travelling salesman for
a new clothing concern, John Dixon
proprietor Of a general merchandise
store in Macon City, drove hard bar
gain and obtained the consent of the
salesman to the stipulation that unsold
goods may be returned.
Four months later Dixon returned
half the goods, which had remained
unsold and rendered payment for the
other half. The company refused to
accept the goods, informing Dixon that
the salesman had no right to enter
into such an unusual arrangement.
Dixon refused to pay, contending that
Evening star., 1928-12-03

the company was bound by the sales
mans contract. Suit was brought, and
Dixon, as a result, lost his case. The
court stated:
"A person dealing with salesman is
required to act with reasonable pru-
exercise authority of an unusual and
extraordinary character, such as would
be sufficient to place reasonably pru-
dent man on guard in dealing with
him, the party so dealt with will not
be permitted to hold the principal to
the contract so made on the conten-
ton that 1t was made within the
