Since thon there has been no woman executed in Berks County and very few in the State, although Mrs. Kate Edwards still awaits sentence in the Uerks County Jail for the killing of her husband.

Miss Susanna Cox, the then 24-year-old girl, murdered her child and hid tho body between a crevice In a small one and" one-half story stone building at Oley Line. Uerks County, which is still standing exactly as It was u century ago. That tragic deed has never been forgotten by Berks Couutlnns, and never will be. The farm where the crime was committed has become one of tho best marked sites in Eastern Pennsylvania. Hundreds of persons go to the scene every year to view the spot where the girl "committed her cruel crime. This farm at the time of the crime belonged to Jacob Geehr. who was married to Esther Snyder, both representatives of the oldest and most respectable citizens of the county. With the Snyders and Geehrs Susanna Cox had lived for more than 11 years as a domestic servant, highly respected as an honest girl, though entirely without educatiou. She not only became attached to Mr. Geehr's family and his three childten, but to all the neighborhood. When Susanna's murdered child was found the authorities were notified In Readiug. a Jury was summoned and the investigation showed that the child's lower jaw had been broken, the

The 10th of June. 1S09, was warm and oppressive, and never before did Reading behold such an assemblage of peopie. Tho taverns were all crowded the evening before, and all night wagons loaded with people passed through the streets. Executions 100 years ago were public events, anil this "day proved the saddest Reading hnd ever seen. Tears of sympathy

As tho average neck is marred by collar rings and yellowed from the wearing of tight bands ami dyed ribbons, one is forced to admit that beautiful throats are few and far
between.
The gril who realizes the Importance of securing a swanllko neck will begin her beauty crusade by forswearing very high collars. Then she must learn how to wash her throat, for few women do it properly. What every girl should do is to give tho throat a diligent scrubbing, night and morning, using an abundance of very hot water and mild soap. This bath can be made dellclously fragrant by putting In twelve drops of benzoin. While rubbing heaps of fragrant lather into the pores, tho benzoin will be doing Its best to blench the neck to lily whiteness.
