Life itself is so beautiful, such a marvellous adven-
ture, that somehow II seems a pity to c%omplicate it by
the introduction of non-essentials. "A simple but beau
tiful home is 50 often ruined by an excess Of furniture
that makes a room look like an auction room, with all
the items on parade. A simple gown is spoiled by too
many trinkets, some of them not in keeping with sim
plcity. A beautiful face is ruined by too much
makeup, that obscures rather than brings out its fine
points. And love is so often ruined by the introduc-
ton Of unfounded iealousies, bitter words, hastily
spoken, and a lack Of mutual consideration.

Auburn, N. Y.-Cat Eye Annie Lii
liam McDowell-forty-eig ht-notorfous
burglar and one of the most elusive
characters of the underworld when
outside prison walls, escaped from
the Auburn women's prison, but pris-
on authorities are doing their best to
lock her up again. Just three weeks
after declining to try for freedom
with two other inmates who were cap
tured, Annie sawed her way out of
her cell and escaped.
Cat Eye, who got her nickname
from q peculiar cast to one eye,
sawed through the wood around the
lock in her cell door and got over
the walls in manner which left pris-
on officials puzzled several hours aft
terward. 6
Only few days ago she told
Warden Frank L. Heacox that Sally
Joyce Richards, blond bandit of Buff
falo, and Amelia Bascom, badger girl
of Brooklyn, approached her to get
her to join them in their contemplated
escape of April %. Mystified at the
time by this revelation, and puzzled
that Cat Eye had turned down the
opportunity, prison officials now see
her refusal to escape at that time
based on a desire to play her old lone
wolf part.
At first 1t was believed that she
must still be within the walls, but
an extended search Of every nook and
corner failed to reveal her. Immedi-
ately the hunt was started outside the
walls by troopers and police through

to many of us quick changes, sudden
calls for an absolutely new routine of
daily life. 1t is the wise and happy
man who can make these readjust-
ments without wrecking his life or
running his happiness.
I have noticed that when men who
have reached or passed middle life
come up against disaster or are COM
PEELED by circumstances to change
their occupations or alter the regular
routine which habit has established,
most of them are unhappy and many
of them die quickly.
Cornell. who had been banker all
his life and who had made some
money, retired a dozen years ago or
so, determined to take life easy. Hav-
ing sold his business there was moth
ing regular for him to do. He could
sleep late in the morning; he could
loaf in the afternoon; he could go to
bed as soon as dinner was over. No
body would be upset, no business en-
terprise would be interfered with. He
was miserable; he could not make the
readjustment. He endured the agony
for few years and then bought out
another business and settled happily
back into the old routine. Had he not
done so / am sure life would have
soon ended for him.
Snyder is much more adjustable. He
meets a new condition without men
tai or emotional disturbance. Snyder's
business is real estate; his avocation
was young girl upon whom his af-
fections were conferred and whom he
expected to marry. The girl for a
time maintained the same viewpoint.
But womens minds are subject to
change, and Snyder's fiancee ran into
another man more to, her liking and

Due TO exposure she contracted
pneumonia and nearly died. After her
recovery she was taken to Matteawan
state hospital in the belief that she
was becoming insane. Subsequently
she was returned here.
The description to the police said
she probably wore blue striped skirt,
blue sweater, black shoes and stock
ings, and light top coat and brown
fedora. She was described as 5 feet 4
inches tall, weighing 100 pounds, with
medium chestnut hair and light CON-
pleXion.
Working in the dead of night on
her previous escape here, with no
tools but short iron window prop
and spoon, Cat Eye Annie, virtually
under the eyes of guards and prison
matrons, dug hole through the brick
wall of the cell and, with the aid of
plank taken from the greenhouse,
scaled a low wall and slid down an
improvised blanket rope to freedom.
Packages of mortar and bits Of
broken brick were found stuffed in a
mattress upon which she had pretend
ed to sleep at night,
Her escape was made in the early
morning on that occasion.

Not always does the owner of de-

months ago real estate firm bought
a large parcel of ground near the East
river for de luxe apartment build
ing. It tried to get an additional strip
twenty-five feet wide, but the owner
of the strip wanted large price. The
firm refused, and built it's apartment
on a smaller area. Then, on the other
side of the profit-seeker, another firm
bought another parcel of land for an
other apartment. 1t, too, sought the
narrow strip. The price was too high,
and SO another towering building was
erected on smaller area. That strip
is now between two sixteen-story
buildings, and of comparatively little
value. 1t isn't big enough for another
apartment building. and the little
house now standing on it is unpleas-
antly overshadowed by it's neighbors.

Nearly Half Century In Bed

Council Bluffs, Iowa.-Mrs. Mary
Wickham of Upton, Iowa, whose will
leaving all her property to the Brook
Ign IN. W Watch Tower and Tract
society has just been filed for probate,
spent forty years in bed as the result
of vow.
The property came to Mrs. Wick
ham on the death Of her husband,
and it was because Mr.. Wickham
had not willed to her all his prop
erty that she took to her bed and
remained there.
Forty-five years ago Mrs. Wick
ham came from England to marry
Mr.. Wickham. She asked him to
make will leaving her all his prop
erty. He refused, and his will left
her only the legal one-third Of his
estate.
The controversy grew warm. One
day, at the close of particularly
violent quarrel. Mrs. Wickham said :
"I'm going to bed, and I'm going to
stay there until you give in"
''Well, you'll stay there the balance
of your life," answered the husband.
Mrs. Wickham went to bed that
same day. The controversy contin-
ued for twenty-five years. Then
Wickham died. Mrs. Wickham did
not attend the funeral. She stayed
in bed.
Once Mrs. Wickham decided to
get up and accept her dover share
of the estate. But she discovered

she gave Snyder the gate, so to speak,
and married the other man. Was he
perturbed? Did he grow pale and sink
into a decline? Not he. The girl was,
of course, loss. but her marriage
opened up a chance for business. The
newly married couple would have to
live somewhere. Snyder had just the
house and the location which would
be perfect for them. He hied him at
once to his rival and sold him cot
tage quite to the girls taste in a new
addition which he had just opened up.
He had lost the girl, but he had put
over good business deal at an in
teresting profit. There was no cause
to worry.

out the vicinity. Cities throughout the
state were asked to be on the lookout
for her.
On a previous escape, after &c hours
of freedom, she was found rain-soaked
and exhausted. hidden under pile of
straw q mile and a half east of Weeds
port, eight miles north of Auburn.
A clew to her whereabouts was pro-
vided on that occasion by word of
residents in that vicinity who said
they had seen a woman near there
acting strangely. She had gone with

l should go nowhere; l should see
no one; should lie in an easy chair
before the wood fire and read a detec-
tive story; l should go to bed at nine.
But it didn't turn out that way. Mrs.
Guyer was having riot with her
dodgers and wanted to talk it over
with me; Green's appendix had gone
bn rampage and he wanted me to
see it out. One thing after another
happened and I got no rest. 1t was

fortunately, have learned happily to
make the quick readjustment and
still be happy.
