Forty Soldiers Shot
for Share in Mutinv

Paris-A sensational dispatch comes
from Fee, in Morocco, to Berlin
newspaper, with dramatic details Of
an alleged mutiny in the French For
eign Legion. It is said to have re-
suited in 400 men being sentenced to

the Second regiment Of the Legion
mutinied on July 10 when about to go
into action north of Skuras. The
whole battalion was disarmed and
contaminated, and every man-4O0
of them-was sentenced to death.
According to the French custom, one
man in every 10 was told to fall out
and was shot. The 300 survivors had
their sentences committed to penal
servitude for life and have been sent
to work in the mines at Kenadso and
labor on the roads.
Among the men put to death are
said%o have been "a Germans, three
Austrians, two Bulgarians and II
Russians.

to the story by publishing the names
and places of origin of the Germans
and Austrians who are said to have
been executed.

Scotland Yard Men Get

Happy Again

"Nothing seemed to please Betty
JEAN" says Mrs. James w. Nolen,
113 Ceanter ST., Dallas, Texas. "She
was feverish and fretful. Her appe-
tite was poor; she seemed bilious.
"a child specialist recommended
California Fig Syrup and it certainly
made my little girl happy, well again
in hurry. We have used it over
three years for all her upsets."
Mothers by thousands praise this
pure vegetable product. Children
love it. Doctors recommend it for
feverish, headachy, bilious, constf-
pated babies and children; to open
the bowels in colds or children's
diseases.
Appetite is increased by it's use;
the breath is sweetened; coated
tongue is cleared; digestion and as
similation are assisted; weak ston-
ach and bowels are strengthened.
For your protection the genuine

TRACES CULTURE
OF MOUND BUILDER
Texas Caves Yield Important
Discoveries.

Washington. = Caves of eastern
Texas, inhabited by an ancient people,
may help science to explain how the
mysterious mound builder culture
found it's way to the Mississippi valley,
where it fourished in prehistoric
times.
Matthew W. Stirling, chief Of the
bureau of American ethnology, has
just returned from exploring this
western region, which is still prac-
tically untouched by psychologists.
He reported finding caves bearing
traces of human occupation and ap-
parently we'll worth investigating by
Smithsonian institution expeditions
The Indians, who built fires in the
cave shelters, and left their broken
tools and dinner bones there to be
buried in dust and debris, were prob
ably similar to the basket makers of
the early Southwest, Mr.. Strings
trial digging revealed.
Greatest interest in these caves
hinges on the fact that they are along
the route where the mound builder
culture presumably advanced if 1t
spread overland from Mexico to the
Mississippi valley. Here may be pre-
served some evidence of those an
cient happenings
One question to be answered, Mr..
Stirling explained, is whether there
was an actual migration of Aztec or
some other tribe from the south, or
whether the Mexican Indians merely
passed along by trade contacts their
ideas of building high places, and art
designs, and other knowledge and Gus
toms that they shared with the Missis-
sippi valley mound builders.

DEATH CORNERS OF
SEA TAKE BIG TOLL
Most Dangerous Spots for
Shipping Pointed Out.

Washington.-Salv operations to
recover gold worth millions in the
S. s. Egypt, sunk off France in a
famous graveyard of the sea, revive
interest in wrecks in other waters.
Pointe du Raj, off which the Egypt
was sunk after collision, is one of
the most dangerous headlands of
France because all ships coming south
out of the English channel bound for
Bordeaux, the Mediterranean, Africa,
or South America, must clear its
toothed and hungry rocks.
sSnared 500 Ships.
ut is to France what the Goodwin
sands and the Lizard are to England,
and what Nauset beach on Cape Cod,
Nantasket beach south Of Boston,
Nantucket island, and Diamond shoal
off Cape Hatteras are to the United
States, and King island is to Aus
tralia," says bulletin of the Ma
tional Geographic society.
Nantucket is credited with sharing
500 ships from the time Of it's settle
ment down to 1876" continues the
bulletin. Lighthouses, buoys, light
ships, better weather report service,
increased use of motor power, and,
now, radio direction finding, have
made the death corners Of the sea
less dangerous, but they still exact
their toll.
"'For IL hours we passed skeletons
of what had once been Ships writes
Melville Chatter in communication

scribing motor trip along the hard
beach of Hatteras banks, 'blanched
outstanding ribs resembling files Of
gravestones, their forests Of protrud-
ing spikes being the grisly grass of
the desertlike expanse. At one point
we counted Ia wrecks within 100
yards. Due to the enormous tonnage
of steel hulls imbedded in the Dia-
mond, there is a magnetic deviation
of the compass amounting to de-
grees.'

"Cape Hatteras, jutting far out in

BEAUTY CHATS BY EDNA KENT FORBES

very keen about skin tonics. Usually
they cost lot, whereas large bottle OF
witch hazel costs very little and is, I
think, every bit as good. Such lotions
contain q certain amount of alcohol,
they will remove any remaining cream
or oil in the skin, they are astringent,
will tighten the pores and will even do
away with fine lines.
If I don't use some mild lotion like
this, fill basin with cold water and
use several cold congresses, simply
squeezing a face cloth from cold water
over the face and the chin.
That Is all the skin needs at night.
However, If there are wrinkles around
the eyes, use a very heavy massage
cream Just over the eyelids and around
the wrinkles If the eyes themselves
have been under a strain during the
day, give them quick rinsing with boz
racic acid. If the lips seem dry use a
white cream lipstick or else camphor
ice. Lastly, scrub the hands thor
oughly and rub them and the elbows
with some good, quick-drying hand To-
ton. Rub cold cream into the finger
nails and you are then ready for the
next day. It is astonishing how much
time you save by this nightly beauty
treatment.

No matter how tired you are, you
must never go to sleep without having
the skin absolutely clean. This Is the
time of day to do most of your beauty
preparations for the day following.
First Of all, remove every single bit of
dirt and makeup from the skin, using
cleansing cream or oil. prefer oil
myself, and even so I wash it of, first
removing as much as possible with
cleansing tissue, then soaking thick,
spongy cloth in hot, scapy water and
wiping this over the face. Extra thick
cream, by the way, should be rubbed
around the eyes If any mascara has
been used on the lashes.
An application of hot. soapy water
and an application of clear, hot water
should take of all the remaining cream
and makeup, and after this an appli-
cation Of skin tonic or cold water is
necessary. AS a matter of fact I'm not

Teach a Child to Treat
Teeth Fairly.
BIZ FLORENCE LA GANKE.

The Lacey children were as accus-
toned to going to the dentists office
every six months as they were to ste
ting down to the table three times q
day. The dentist never assured them
that an operation, such as drilling or
exploring, would not hurt. He told
them when he feared he might cause
pain. In this way they we're prepared
and took him at his word. He gave
them confidence.
When the children began to take
sewing lessons in. school he cautioned
them against biting the thread between
their front teeth. He said that much
damage could be done to enamel by
that apparently simple act.
Because their mouths showed q
slightly acid tendency he advised
them to use milk Of magnesia as a
mouth wash two or three times a
week. After brushing the teeth before
going to bed he told them to take
a small amount and gurgle it about
in the mouth until the gums and
teeth we're coated.
One of their playmates fell and
broke a front tooth partially off. The
dentist advised periodic trips TO MS
office, even though the tooth was not
painful. He did not want to have
the tooth reach the state where 1t had
to be pulled. In a small or growing
child that cavity with no tooth in
place will cause the actual changing
of the shape of the jaw. It is quite
possible to treat the tooth and keep
the nerve alive and in healthy con-
dition.
This particular dentist advised a
mild salt solution for frequent rinses.
He said that it kept the gums in a
healthy condition. And the Lacey chill
dren seemed to be perfect examples OF
all his teachings and precepts.
