MILADY BEAUTIFUL
BY LOIS LEEDS.

strand of hair is waved in front of the
left ear. The right ear is exposed.
The long chignon or knot that lies
on the neck Is becoming to thin girls.
The knot should be coiled loosely with,
perhaps, a stray curl at one side. ms
ARRANGEMENT is also suitable Tor the
girl whose hair grows low down her
neck.
Anxious Reader: Any one who is not
actually deformed may develop shapely
lower limbs by regular exercise. Exer-
cises for the legs are simple and easy
to do. but they must be repeated for
several months in order to be effective.
Give Is minutes day to exercises such
as the following. First: Stand erect
and raise and lower your heels. Rise
on the toes, count five, lower the body
until the heels almost touch the floor;
repeat eight times, touching the floor
with the heels only on the eighth
count; repeat the same exercise, rising
on the heels. Second: Mark time, lift
ing your knees very high at each step.
Third: Skip on each foot alternately.
In addition to these exercises, try to
walk on your tiptoes while you are
dressing yourself, keeping your poise as
long as possible. Fourth: Sit erect.
and point the foot with an upward
curve, describing a circle. not with the
leg so much as the foot. bringing all
the muscles into play Do this first
left, alternately, in order to rest the
muscles, and persist in this daily exer-
else, no matter whether you feel like it
or not. Fifth: Stand erect, hands on
hips and heels together. Rise on your
toes, inhaling slowly. Bend knees, sink
ing to a squatting position, exhale.
Slowly straighten legs until YOU are
standing erect on tiptoe. inhaling as
you do so and then lower your heels
Repeat 10 to 90 times. Sixth: Give
the limbs good shaking. Stand erect
with feet together. Rise on toes. Now
rapidly bend and straighten each knee
alternately as though running, but do
not lift the toes from the floor. Swing
arms freely and do the exercise briskly
for several minutes. Do waltz steps
around the room; keep on your toes.
Practice different dance steps to lively
music for several minutes daily. The
rhythm is very helpful and will make
every exercise enjoyable. Give an equal
amount of time to each exercise. In
this way you will develop trim, shapely.
graceful legs. In month or six weeks
time you will begin to notice some i'm
provement, but do not become dis
couraged II you have to do the exer-
ciSeS every day for several months be-
fore a marked change is evident Be
sure to practice correct posture at all
times, when walking, sitting or stand
ing. The exercises may be taken regu-
larly, together with outdoor sports such
as swimming, tennis. golf, hiking, dane
ing or gymnastic exercises. It is good |
plan to spend two or three nights |
week at swimming pool or a GYM |
and two hours at out-of-door |
exercise every day as we'll as Is or 20 |
for setting-up and special ex-
erciSeS every morning.

Today in
Washington History
BY DONALD A. CRAIG.

May 2, 1S59.-The condition Of
Seventh street at this time is described
by those persons who are forced to use
it as absolutely insufferable and dis
grace to the city, t
Now that the soft mud which graced
the carriage way and disgraced the foot
pavement along this street from @ to
L streets during the Winter months
has nearly dried up, the condition Of
things is revealed in its true character.
Between 1 street and New York ave-
nue. there is sarcely space to stand on
by reason of the ruts and cutters which
abound, like so many pitfalls, to entrap
the unwary traveller, and which from
their width and depth remind one Of
recently exhumed burial ground. How
carriages can pass along this terrible
way without being overturned and
broken up is almost miraculous.
The citizens doing business on the
borders Of this impossible waste now
look upon it with the calm desperation
of mortals convinced that for them
there is no hope of redress. Injured in
their business individually to a ruinous
extent, they have striven by prayers to
the City Councils and the mayor In
vain.
Failing to be heard by the ear Of
justice, legislative or executive, they
finally undertook to abate the nuisance
themselves by employing cart men to
fill up the largest holes with gravel, but
they were informed by the police, or
some other city conservators of law, that
such filling UP was unconstitutional and
that they were subjecting themselves to
a fine. If they did not desist. So they
did disist, and they now fall back dis
heartened and nurse the recollection Of
their wrongs with what philosophy they
are able to command under the cir
cumstanceS.
Georgetown residents were gratified
today to learn that the council of that
town has unanimously passed an ordi-
nance providing for the general distribu-
ton of water from the Washington
Aqueduct The original bill, which was
reported by the water committee, was
replaced by a substitute bill prepared
by Mr.. Hyde of the council, which is eX-
pected to be far more acceptable, mas
much as it does away with the prob
ability of the town being saddled with
a heavy debt, two or three salaried Of
flcers and a never-ending burden upon
the people for water rents.

Historic Cruelties of Great Rulers
Fredegunda French Peasant Girl, Whose Murders and
Assassinations Made Her Queen.
J. p. GLASS.
BY J. p. GLASS.

Brunhilde was banished to Rouen.
There Merovee, Chilperics son by his
first wife, fell in love with her and mar
ried her. Fredegunda had wanted to
get rid of him, because he YVES heir to
the throne. This gave her good ex-
cuse. She prosecuted him until he COM
mitted suicide.
She next caused the assassination Of
Chilperic's second son. Soon after the
former Queen Andovere was found
strangled to death. Finally Fredegunda
wound up by having Chilperic killed
Thereafter she reigned alone. On her
death, in SGT, she left her son, Clotaire
II, on the throne.
The following incident gives a good
idea Of how Fredegunda ruled. A feud
having broken out in Tourney, and the
three disputants paying no heed to her
attempts at settlement, she invited them
to a great feast. Having got them
drunk. she directed three Of her follow
ers to cut their heads of with axes as
they maudlinly argued.

BEAUTY CHATS
Our Changing Foods.

If you have ever looked at an old
cookery book you will be amazed at
the amount and richness Of the foods
they used to eat. Modern diet Is as
different from the diet Of 200 years ago
as modern clothes are different from
the enormous hoped skirts OF that
period.
In those days, and even up to COM
paratively recent times, every meal had
to include several meat dishes, game,
and If possible, fish as well, with rich
wines and quantities of port. It is no
wonder. they suffered from govt, dys-
pepsia, and that they died Of all sorts
of diseases due to bad blood.
We are rapidly going to the other
extreme. Diet propaganda Is partly re-
sponsible, high prices of meat are also
partly the reason. In some sections
the consumption of beef is IS per cent
less than a year agol In the Packers
Institute, which knows exactly how
much meat is being eaten all over the
country, it is said that we eat As per
cent less meat today than 10 years ago.
To make up for this, the consumption
Of salads and salad materials has more
than doubled. Pastry, white bread and
potatoes have also dropped of.
The other figures they give are in

BURKE DENIES
ACCUSATION OF
WILLEBRANDT
Says Methodist AntagoniSm
for Smith Not Asked
by Republicans.
BY JOSEPH II. BAIRD

WASHINGTON, Aug. 8.-Political
Washington today was preparing to
witness the most spectacular side
show it has seen since the departed
days of the Hoover Smith campaign
as Mrs. Mabel Walker Willebrandt
and James Francis Burke disputed
the origin and sanctions of the for
ner assistant attorney-generaTs ia
nous Springfield 90 appeal TO
Methodists 10 enlist in the anti
Smith cause.
IN a statement issued last night
the counsel for the Republican ma
tional committee fatty denied he
had approved, edited or seen Mrs.
WITHDRAWALS eXhOrtation to minis
tiers to attack Smith from their
pulpits.
Promises 20 Tell All
Mrs. Willebrandt. in a series of
newspaper articles wherein she has
promised to tell all" of Washing
tons inside story about prohibition
enforcement, declared Burke had
eoited her Springfield speech. More
over, she said the speech was made
over her protests.
The Burke denial. it was believed
here today, may be only the first
of a series wherein politicians now
in power seek to protect themselves.
Burkes statement. issued as a for
nal press memorandum, follows in
full.
Burk's Statement Made
Ordinarily I pay no attention of
campaign canards. but I am COM
PEELED to deny that ever urged that
Mrs. Willebrandt discuss any mans
religion. nor did I ever insert any
religious comment in any speech she
made nor was any manuscript of
hers containing any attack on any
mans religion ever submitted to me.
Her Springfield speech which came
TO headquarters contain no such eX-
preston as go back to your pulpits
and preach this doctrine or any
thing akin to it"
Burke is a member of the Roman
Catholic church. to which former
Governor Alfred E. Smith belongs.
Follows Meeting With Hoover
Inasmuch as the Burke statement
came shortly after he had dined
With President Hoover, it was be-
lieved probable the matter of Mrs.
Withdrawals expose was discussed
between them.
The statement Burke denied ap-
peared in one of Mrs. Willehrandt's
first articles, which touched only
lightly upon the last campaign.
Washington is waiting anxiouSly
and in some quarters fearfully for
the latter parts of her story.

BULkELEY SWAMPS
 NEW BRITAIN NINE
Capital City Nine Wins Baseball
 Game by 10 to 3 Score

The speedy Bulkeley high school baseball team of Hartford which has been conquering all the teams in this section Of the state added the New Britain high school team to it's list of victims at Bulkeley Stadium yesterday afternoon. The winners scored 10 to 3 victory in a game innings.
 The reason for the shortened game was that the field was taken by the Public Service League of Hartford at 6 o'clock. Although the announce ment was made n Hartford that the game was scheduled to start at 3:3a o'clock this wouil Dc impossible for the New Britain play..ra who are not dismissed from class until 3:4f o'clock. They hen have to dress at Willow Brook park and trave! to Hartford. The fact that the team arrived at ) o'clock is no fault of the team or Coach Cassidy II was reasonable time for the team to at- rive.
 As soon as 1t arrived # vas criticized for being ,ate and t .aI to start the game Niti out ha.'.,ns. fielding or pitching practice. The confusion which would naturally follow was shown ;n the first in- ming when the team slammed out hits but ran the bases raggedly. Two players we,e called out at home on close decisions in the early part of the contest.
 Linnehan. the young pitcf1cr, would naturally feel the effects of the nervous stain and he was hit very hard in tne first and fourth in nings. He was replaccd by Schmarr who was also hit rather hard dur. ing the short lime fe was in.

MARTIN DEFEATS GEORGE REISLER
Johnny Clinch Knocks Out NtV
 Yorker in Throe Rounds

! Gene Martin of Thomaston, for mer amateur. put a real feather in his cap last night in the main bout of the professional fight card stag cd at the Stanley Arena by the Crescent A. C., when he outfouSht George Reisler of New York and easily carried away q decision in the six rounds. Reisler had all the appearance of being clever ring master. He put up a defense that was superb but he failed to go on the attack except for spasmo- die flashes.
 Martin plugged away all night long and beat Reisler to the punch at every opportunity. In the for ways when both boys stood toe to toe. Martin, although the lighter hitter, punched willingly with his hard swinging opponent and there wasn't any question about the deci- sion at the end. Neither boy was in any danger at any time during the bout.
 Johnny Clinch knocked out Ed- die Moseley of New York, a choco- late colored battler. in the third round of their scheduled four round preliminary. To ringsiders, 1t ap. peared that Moseley went down twice more from caution than from Johnny's punches. Clinch was giv- ing him . terrific lacing from the start of the bout and Moseley could mt stand up in under the barraEe. Although he started of we'll. Moee- ley was badly licked until Referee "Jigger" Mccarthy counted him out.
 Bernard Flood of this city meet ing the much-experienced Ted Gau- thier of Springfield in a four-round- CT, was stopped from further light ing by Referee Mccarthy in tho third round of their scheduled four rounder. Flood was out at the eni of the second round but the bell saved him from a knockout. He in- sisted on going back ana was like . wild tiger in the fourth. Gauthier. calm and cool all through. caught him with pile driving rights and lefts and Flood went down. Me- Carthy wisely put an end to the battle over the protests of the local boy.
 Jack Paoli of Waterbury got a decision in four rounds over Mickey Todd of Litchfeld in . slow bout. | the second on the card. Todd, deaf mute, did lot of wrestling but little fighting. The bout was mat red by the consistent clinchins of the two battlers.
 The curtain-raiser was the best bout on the program. Les Oben- heimer. a vicious puncher from Springfield. won the decision over Jack Sharkey in four r-"-ds. Both boys hammered away at each other with the boy from the City of Homes having the better of the go- ing.
 The semi final bout was called off when Dr. Frank Zwick, examining physician for the state commission declared that Sid Reisler's blood pressure was too high to allow him to fight. The delay in trying to se- cure substitute caused the bouts to start after . o'clock. A very small crowd of fans viewed them.

the shortest priced favorite in the history of the classic.
 He was we'll liked in the winter books but his price was hammered to the ground by the unusual bet ting activities of his multi-million- aire owner and by the scratching of the greatly fancied Roguish Eye, High Strung and Twink.
 Next to Blue Larkspur. the Man O War colt, Clyde Van Dusen, may be the heaviest played colt in the race. The players like his blood lines.
 Then there are Ervast from the stable of Baron Long. the million aire California sportsman: Karl Eitel, owned by Tlderman John Coughlin Of Chicago, and Neddie, owned by Edward Mclean. the mill lionaire Washington publisher.
 Herman Coughlin, who is known in Chicago as Bath House John,' - thought he had the race in the bag with Rcguish Eye but the colt went bad in training and is hopes had to be transferred to Karl Eitel. He said a few days ago that Roguish Eye was a better colt but that he felt sure "Eitel' would be in the race.
 Chief interest of the spectators probably will be centred on Blue Larkspur because it is reported from reliable sources, that his owner will
