Left His Friend "Holding the Sack"

GIVE US money 8ACW Pi KANSAS CITY. When 11. C. Welch, manager of the National Employment company's office, disappeared, he left a "white elephant" on the hands of a friend, according to the Star of this city. The day he left Welch told Ii. C. Porter, Midland hotel, the friend, that he was 111, and, giving Porter the keys, asked him to operate the employment office. Porter had not "kept office" long when he had visitors. Soon the visitors totaled between fifty and seventy-five men. They said Welch had told them to meet a "man from Texas" there and they would be jflven transportation to a job. IJe fore noon the visitors began to grow insistent when neither Welch nor a "man from Texas" appeared. They derna ruled Porter return the Imparting Charm CHICAGO. To begin with it must not be assumed that a "woiklng goil" lias no charm. Of course, they have it. Otherwise? why heaven's oft-sung vigil? Put there is charm and charm; and that of the "woiklng goil" is not Oh. it Is all right, of course, but it Is not Just Just well there is a difference between the naive charm of the factory girl and the charming naivete of the sweet young thing from the fashionable finishing school, and so We announce the inauguration of the "charm school." It is the latest adjunct to the Young Woman's Christian association, superinduced by a "movie" hero of u picture by the same name. It is being conducted nightly at the Industrial service center of the organization. "You see," said Miss Harham Ahell of tlu; Y. W. C. A., "some of the girls went one night to see the hero. In the picture he fell heir to a young Jadies' school, and decided instead o-f giving the regular courses he would teach the girls how to be (harming. The Idea made a strong impression on several of the girls. So they came hack to the renter and talked it over and this charm school is the result." Honesty Not Yet MILWAUKKi:. The Twentieth--rentury skeptic who has not given up the search started centuries ago by Diogenes, despite the ma-nipulatio'-of h'.gh finance and the devices of less ingenious mortals to appropriate the worldly goods of their fellow men, may now extinguish the modern version of tha tJrecian philosopher's lamp, because the object of the age-long quest has been discovered. While en route from his home in t'anada last week, a man whose seventy-two years had failed to destroy his faith in human beings, contided to a stranger that he had $100 in Canadian currency which he wished to exchange for United States money upon Mashers Have. No NKW YORK. It behooves every masher hereabouts to beware of Mrs. Kleanor De Hart, an attractive widow of middle age. who has added another notch to her trusty shillelah. In her home at J4 Amsterdam avenue she told how easy it is for any von.an. if she will only display a little pluck, to put mashers to rout or land them In cells. In the last the years she has vanquished about fifty of them. Mrs. IV Hart was accosted in Central park by a man describing himself as .lames Zautorelli. twenty-live vears old. a post otlice employee. She did not have her shillelah, which is really a pioee of rubber hose about nine iurhe; long. She ues it with telling eiTcct on men who attempt to tlirt with l.er. Hut she was undaunted, though v'.tlMt her weapon, and reported to her wonderfully developed right arm for the kn-kout. Zamrel!i took the ount, was turned over to a policeUüin. ucd in the ni:ht court was sentenced to one day in the workhouse, lie was spared more severe punishment because of his war record. Hut llMen to Mrs. De Hart tell how it 1 done:

n;o:iey from $2.50 to $10 each they had paid Welch to get jobs. Then some of the visitors complained to Lieut. John Holers, who sent Arthur I rock, patrolman not In uniform, to investigate. At police headquarters Porter explained he had no connection with the employment company, but merely was doing a favor for Welch. After he had noticed a typewriter and other articles in the office familiar to him were missing, he began an investigation of his own, he sa.d. 'it Is said he learned Welch had "checked out" at 1111 Charlotte street, where he had been living, and that a woman from there was gone also. Welch's personal hanking account had been withdrawn. "So complete records had been kept at the employment' office since July 23, Porter said. Kdward I'oomgaarden, 1011 Grand avenue, one visitor, told the police he knew of 20 other men who had paid foes to Welch for jobs in an oil refinery In Texas. All were told to "come hack Saturday," he said. Welch Is described as being about tTiirty-eight to forty years old, of dark complexion and about live feet ten inches tall. He wore a white shirt. Porter was not held. to "Working Girl" The girls are to be taught how to be charming in etiquette, speech and dress. Miss Aboil says, and, she adds with a blush, "how to be charming in their behavior with men friends." Miss Jessie Austin, superintendent at the center, and Mrs. Grace MayerOakes have charge of the classes. "The girls are very sincere about It," said Miss Austin. "They take it seriously. They are studying hard and are deeply interested." The reporter suggested that a few pictures of some of the young women In various charming postures might be interesting in the paper. Hut Miss Austin quite firmly forbade It. "No, no, no really J. she said, "it would not do. This tiling is too too deep; ft goes toi far below the surface for anything like that." Altogether Extinct his arrival at the Union depot, Chi-ea-.-o, after passing through Milwaukee. Ignorant of the course he should pursue, and bewildered by the imposing metropolis, the old gentleman readily accepted his companion's offer to make the transaction, and placing the roll of hills securely in the hitter's outstretched hand, agreed upon a meeting place. Unable to lind his way about the strange city, the old man made his way to the otliee of the station master, where he was relating his story, when a man about fifty years old, who had told a similar story to an accompanying policeman, stepped hurriedly into the ollice. Mori concerned over their failure to keep the appointment than the small fortune at stake, the two men exchanged greeting, while the younger counted out. In United Status currency, the equivalent of $400 in Canadian money. Neither would reveal his identity to the astonished witnesses of the meeting, each maintaining that the act, although incredible to the others, to them was to be taken as a matter of eourse. Terrors for Her "It's the easiest thing in the world for a respectable woman to nab a masher. Kor the pat live years, in fact ever siiue I was first insulted by a masher. I have carried what I edl my shillelah a piece of rubber hoe that is jus: a effective as a blackjack or a nightstick. There Is no danger of your killing them, but a tap with some force in it is bound to lay them low. "In the pat five years I have caused the arrest of about fifty mashers. Only one got away from me and only one escaped conviction. Kxactly how many I have nabbed I cannot say. All that is required to get them is a little courage. If a woman hasn't got a shillelah, let her leurn a few Jiu Jltsu grips they're easy to learn. Then she need have no fear."

PELTRY HAS GALL

Fur to Adorn Suits and Coats as Collars, CuTfs Borders. Trtcotine Suits for Early sWear With Moussyne and Duvet de Laine for Winter. Fabrics width have found especial favor for the fall season are represented in the collection of suits and coats now being shown. For early wear trlcotlne Is a medium used to fashion suits, with moussyne and luvet de laine for colder weather. Coats evidence a liking for panveloine, moussyne and bollvia. Fur Is used to advantage on both suits and coats, forming collars, cuffs and borders. A suit of corrento blue moussyne shows the jacket trimmed with' a blue fox collar and cuffs, the blue tones further accented In floss embroideries which describe arrow motifs at the bust and at the back form a panel showing greater width at the shoulders than at the hips. Finger-tip length Jackets are highly favored. A suit devoid of fur adornment, developed along more tailored lines, Is also formed of Qioussyne. An Intere,ing treatment Is noted In the back section of the jacket, where soft fullness above the waistline develops Into strap treatments below the waistline. The treatment is reversed at the front, where strappings terminate In softly pouched pockets. Coats In many instances feature the flat back and front fullness Introduced at the sides, an effect at once youthful and flattering. Panvelaine fashions a coat of this sort, the lower skirt section treated with a series of self cord tuckings which are epeated on the flare sleeves. A shawl .ollar of squirrel adds to the attractiveness of this number. The wide flowing sleeve is advocated, one model showing a marked use of this mode being made of panvia inc. The sleeves are so cut as to be worn flying open at the lower edge Paris is producing voguish designs with short skirts despite its dictum of length. As a sample this is a smart street frock with skirt trimmed with buttons of mother o pearl. The blouse is of striped silk. HOW THE NEW Face Covering Floats Out and Hangs to Shoulders, Adding Gracefulness to Wearer. How do you wear your veil? inquires the New York Sun. Do you pull a large meshed veil over your face so that the tip of your round-ended nose pushes through or the end of your pointed nose sticks out? Do you pull the. veil tightly across your forehead so that your eyelashes catch In It? Do you always have an Irritating little excess of veil under the chin that you repeatedly roll and twist Into a little hunch to get it out of the way ? . Do you get the veil on so that It draws in some places and sags In others? Do you have trouble because the veil slips from around your hat down over your eyes, while It remains secure around your neck and chin? Do you lose the ends at the back from their fastening and And them floating out in the winds of heaven behind you? Of course if you follow the mode in veils you need do none of theso things, for the really smart veil nowadays floats loosely at the back and is not held In at all, unless around the throat. S ine of -the new veils nre made with little ruffs of feather or tulle or ribbon that fastens about the throat. Above this hand the veil puffs and balloons and little effort Is made to keep It taut and smooth. Some of the new veils art exceedli'glv attractive. Thev are made so

THE SILK SPORT SWEATER

The silk and wool jersey sport skirt continues' popular. If, as illustrated, there is a new detail in the design, all the better. A black silk sweatercompletes the outfit, or caught together. Hands of wolf fur add to the flare effect. The bodice section Is cut full and straight and embroidered on the sleeves and back with self floss and gold metal thread. A round cord girdle marks the low waistline at the back with a self belt crossing the front and tying loosely. Gray holivia is chosen to fashion a coat trimmed with beaver. This is n full straight model with a band of the fur marking the low waistline. Self tucks of slender order emanate from the neckline in sunburst effect, and an interesting handling is seen In the sleeves cut with a deep armhole, the lower sleeve In ruffle form, the wrist bePcd with a band of the fur. A wide beaver collar finishes the neck. FASHIONS IN BRIEF Cape frocks are worn by both grownups and children. Foulard dresses with narrow flower girdles are being worn. An evening gown of black lace has a nock which Is high in front and slopes to the girdle in back. Petticoats are carefully fitted at the waistline so that there may be no extra hulk in unnecessary gathers. Black crepe de chine dresses with monkey fur fringe in perpendicular rows from waist to hem are shown. In the evening gowns, the soft radium taffetas are preferred in the Empress Eugenie types with the long, slim bodice. A sleeveless afternoon gown of taffeta worn with a pair of black fancy gauntlets and black ruch around your neck is mighty stylish. Very up to date girls nre wearing kid gauntlets generously embroidered, sonn in plain silks and beads, but mostly In steel: Very often these will sport upon the cuff the wearer's monogram. Georgettes and laces, and now wraps of silk and lace, or silk voile and georgette have taken to their hearts linings of velvet, duvetyn and fur, thus upsetting our established notions as to material propriety. VEILS ARE WORN that they flare in almost circular shape from the small hats with which they are worn. They float out and hang to the shoulders and add much gracefulness to their wearer. The tight, snug veil is often considered in Europe a typically American trick. That Is to say, Europeans consider the American woman a past mistress at arranging the neat face veil. WOOL SHAWLS FOR WINTER Wrap That May Be Thrown Across Shoulders Carelessly Will Keep Out Frigid Blasts. The desire for Spanish shawls is not, it seems, just an isolated flight, for we are to have shawls for the winter, too. They are to be of wool and embroidered, and, generally speaking, they are to retain much of the grace and charm possessed by the highly colored or.es of this season. Women have found them too becoming to part with them lightly, and they nre practical adjuncts to the wardrobe, to be sure, for they can be thrown across the .shoulders cnrelessjlv, yet effectively, if keeping out j frigid blasts happens to be a subject of any moment.

CHANGES IN MAPS OF WORLD Almost Impossible of Belief Has Been the Increase in Knowledge In tht Christian Era.

Mapruakers are having a busy time In these days of everchanging boundaries. Kurope has regrouped Itself, and the old map of our schooldays 1 wrong from top to bottom. But what tremendous changes have taken place In the Christian era. a comparatively short time In the history' of the world, observes a writer In London Answers. The Roman's map of the world was the Middle sea the Mediterranean and the lands washed by its waves. To sail out of the Straits of Gibraltar the Pillars of Hercules was as great an adventure as being shot In a rocket to Mars would be today! For another thousand years, after the decline of Rome, very little progress was made. India was a sort of fairyland, China or .Cathay might have been In the moon, Russia and Siberia were wholly out of hounds. America was not dreamed of, Australia had never been heard of, no European ship had ever sailed on the Pacific ocean. Then, quite suddenly, came the age of exploration. The Spanish and Portuguese navigators, followed bv the great Englisb adventurers, 'doubled the world's land area for the map makers. Rut even then the maps were fearful and wonderful. America was a piece of all guesswork. The greater part of Africa the same. Even Europe looked like nothing on earth, and where they were at a loss they drew fabulous beasts and birds to till up the spaces. BRINGS BACK ACTION OF BRAIN Remarkable Power of Smelling Salts ; When the Seat of Reason Is j Violently Affected. J When Carpentier sent that one terrific blow apiinst Dempsey's chin in the second round of their battle for the championship, and Dcmpsey stasjrered, dazed by its force, one of his seconds applied a bottle of smelling salts to his nose. When a woman faints, .smelling salts are placed beneath her nose, and she revives. The reviving effect of smelling salts Is due to the ammonia they contain. Aromatic spirits of ammonia have the same effect. Ammonia Is a very powerful stimulant to both the lungs and the heart. In full strength, the fumes of ammonia are intensely irritating to the lungs and throat, as. any tl reman who has helped to put out a burning factory in which ammonia was stored can testify. In a very weak solution it irritates only sufliciently to stimulate. When inhaled, the gas affects the nerves ending in the nose, throat and lungs; so quickly do these carry the news to the brain and so instantaneous is the response by way of the pneumogastric and other nerves that the lungs expand to draw In air and the heart at once pumps more nipIdly Buffalo Kxpress. Dog Biscuit for Breakfast. Judge Jean II. Xorris tells the funniest true story of domestic difficulties. Here it is: In the tragedy of misunderstandings, it is a relief to run across a case that is strictly humorous. Kntcrtainment of this sort was furnished in one instance by a husband, arraigned for nonsupport, who declared that he had left home because he had been, given dog biscuit for breakfast. "That ain't no foundation for a hard day's work!" he complained. 'T always have oatmeal porridge in the morning; but that precious pup was sick and wouldn't eat his regular fare. So the missus gives him my porridge, find then breaks up his biscuit and tries to pass it on to me. Wasn't that enough to make tiny man leave home?" Asked if she liked the dog better than she did her husband, the woman hurst into a pean of praise for her spouse. "The dog's a delicate little thing and awfully fussy about his food," she explained. "I thought If the dog biscuits didn't hurt him they certainly wouldn't hurt a strong man like James." The trouble ended In a complete reconciliation. American Magazine. "Indophen Blue" a New Shade. "Indophen blue" Is the name f the novelty over which the dye men are pulling out their chests like pouter pigeons and declaring that "American chemists are fully the equals of their German rivals In resourcefulness." In the present instance they have pone beyond, fr try as they have the Germans liave not obtained a blue of this type possessing all the desired properties. The color is brighter and ftlighUy more violet than Indigo and closely resembles brome-indiffo. Its great resistance to light, surpassing that of indigo itself, is a property that delights the dyer, while it equals indigo in m number of other customary tests, Including that of boiling. This discovery will be greeted with applause hy textile manufacturers. Flowers Preserved in Ice. A wreath of western Australian wild tlowers recently arrhfcl In England to be placed on the Unknown Warrior's grave In Westminister abbey. The wreath was frozen in a solid block of Ice. and when the flowers were thawed they proved to be Just as fresh as when they were gathered, in spite of their six weeks' Journey throuph the truplcs.
