There may be pools Of stagnant

There Is general excitement DUR

'But when they 60 home and

Haycock "deplored'' the use Of

commented on their heating systems

GAIN
IN NEVADA
Nv Universal Service

Figures made public yesterday,
by the Commerce Department show
that divorces in Nevada, where
Reno is the Mecca for the matri.
monially unhappy, increased 25 per
cent in 1928 over the figures Of
the previous year. Marriages how
ever. increased 73 per cent and
bid fair to take an even larger
jump next year.
There were 1856 divorces re-
corded as compared with 1858
in 1927. while marriage figures
jumped from 1888 to 4.16S.
There's reason for the increase
ofAmarriages. California. just across
the line, passed law recently re-
quiring three days advance no
tice to be given before the issu-
ance of marriage license. while
Nevada has no such law. Thus
it also has become Gretua Green.

In Durance Vile

"a plutocrat has gone to JAIL" we
lately heard the newshounds yell; mot
all his countless stacks of kale could
save him from prison cell" And there
were people here and there who found
much solace in the news; TITS good to
see q millionaire in training with the
convict crews. He has no butler at his
call, no chef to cook his lunch at noon:
ne leans against the prison wall and
eats cheap goulash with q spoon. He
has no mattress wide and deep on
which to rest when, tired, distraught; all
through the night he has to sleep upon
q rusty iron cot The luxuries he long
has known he'll not encounter for q
time; his bedroom floor is clamny stone,
his windows barred and thick with
CRIME. He has to eat the cheapest chow,
the poorest grub cook can swing; the
law is indicated now and we should
whoop and dance and sing" think 1t
strange how people gloat upon the suf-
fering Of men who for q time have lost
their goat, but who'll recover it again.
It's good to vindicate the law, to see It
standing on its pins; to know rich
mans eating slaw in expiation Of his
sins It's good to know that Uncle Sam
can put plutocrat in Jail, as well as
one who steals ham or peddles booze
or robs the mail. But when the pluto
is In his cell would not taunt his tor
tured soul, but kindly smile and wish
him well and hope he'd get quick pa
role. It grieves me much to see q man
deprived Of priceless liberty and hauled
of in q prison van, his melancholy
weird to dree. Our erring ones must I'LL
the tails who have for statutes little
use, but when I find that law prevails,
I'd like to see the mall turned loose.

Eyebrows and Lashes,

Most eyebrows can be kept well
groomed and nicely shaped by merely
brushing the right way with an eye
brow brush dipped In vaseline, but there
are two types that require more at
tention, namely, the very heavy, dark
nose and the very pale ones that can
not be seen at any distance. Both
types detract very much from the
beauty Of the face, particularly Of the
eyes.
The thick eyebrow may be thinned by
plucking out some Of the hairs. Before
using the tweezers sterilise them In
boiling water or in alcohol, apply q
little cold cream or soothing skin lotion
them out one by one. Pull the hairs
in the direction In which they grow.
After removing several hairs, apply an
antiseptic lotion before proceeding to
the next group. There Is a new cream
which lessons the pain of the operation
being put on the market for use on
eyebrows that are to be plucked. Thick
eyebrows need thinning usually on their
lower borders where they begin to grow
down on the eyelid. When the eyes are
deep set their appearance may be much
improved by this thinning process,
which clears the upper lids of the stray
Cling hairs. OF course, the hairs on the
bridge or the nose must be removed,
since eyebrows that meet in the middle
give q sinister look to the face.
Very blond eyebrows and eyelashes
need to be darkened in order to bring
out the beauty Of the eyes. There are
two ways TO do this. One IL by using
special eyebrow dyes which stay on the
hairs for several months at q time. The
other method Is the use Of eyebrow
cosmetic like mascara or an eyebrow

BEAUTY CHATS BY EDNA KENT FORBES

No matter how good looking you are
you'll get no credit for any beauty Il
you do not hold yourself properly; but
If you carry your body well you will
look distinguished, though you may be
ugly and even shabbily dressed. I
think 1t would be excellent If you
made yourself q dressing table with q
long mirror, with O stool in front Of
it, so that you observed yourself con-
stantly all the time you're dressing and
undressing.
It always seems curious to me to
find that q great many mirrors are
considered q vanity. To my thinking,
the only possible way to find out your
own fault Ia to see them through q
looking glass. Therefore the more
looking glasses In your house the more
frequently are you reminded that you
stand or sit badly, that your skirt hangs
wrong, or the way you do your hair Is
a disgrace. For the last opinion OF
yourself that you can trust Is that Of
your family or your friends
The ideal dressing table has a mirror
so long that 1t gives you clear reflec-
ton from your head to your feet. The
best ARRANGEMENT is TO fasten the mir
ror to the wall. and place on either
small chests with drawers, so that ali
your toilet articles are within easy
reach and also the ugly ones well out
Of sight Small chests and tables like
these can be had In the implanted fur
niture department and can be painted
any color you want. Such a dressing
table would cost you little to make and
would look original and distinctive.
It Is the best way-I think 1t Is the
only way-to correct yourself of bad
habits of standing and sitting: you
