Is presenting Miss Katharine Jewell
Everts in a series of lecture-recitals,

contrast with her reading on Wednes
day of "The Hour Glass," strong with
its dramatic and emotional appeal.
Miss Everts declares that she thinks
the "debutante slouch" one of the
greatest enemies of the present day.
"I shall fight it wherever I go," said
Miss Everts. "It spoils the health and
the appearance of our girls."

PREFECT FUNERAL ORATOR
Paris OITIcial Pleads for Controlling
Trade in. Revolvers.
PARIS. April SO. (Special.) The
funeral of a policeman who was killed
while arresting a criminal at St. Ouen,
took place recently. M. Hennion. pre
fect of police, pronounced a funeral ora
tion, drawing attention to the manner
in which modern criminals try to con
ceal their murderous madness under
the guise of some social theory. He
laid stress on the terrible harm- done by
speakers and writers who glorify the
revolver as a weapon of social emanci
pation and who describe the police as
the last obstacle to that emancipation.
It was becoming every day more
necessary, he said, to subject the 'trade
in weapons, particularly in revolvers, to
strict regulations, so that the authori
ties would no longer have to wait until
a crime had been accomplished before
they could Intervene. The law of 1S85
left the trade in revolvers absolutely
free, and the tradesmen was not even
required to keep a register with the
name and address of his customers, as
was the case with other weapons.
It is not surprising that the criminal
classes of Paris are well provided with
automatic pistols and revolvers, since
advertisements continually appear Jn
the dally papers offering these lethal
weapons for sale on the Instalment sj-s-tem
ou terms of 75 cents a month.

Famous For Her
Hair
Actress Tells How She Grew It.
Madame Rose, the well-known act
ress who played on one of the leading
vaudeville circuits the past Winter an-d
who Is especially noted for her long,
beautiful hair, in a recent Interview
In Chicago, made the following state
ment: "Any lady or gentleman can
promote the growth of their hair and
make it soft and glossy with this sim
ple recipe which they can mix at home:
To a half pint of water add 1 oz. of
bay rum. a small box of Barbo Com
pound and or. of glycerine. Apply
to the scalp two or three times a week
with the finger tips. This Is not only
the finest hair grower I have ever
known, but it prevents the hair from
falling out, removes dandruff and scalp
humors, darkens streaked, faded gray
hair and makes it soft and glossy. The
ingredients can be purchased at any
drug store at very little cost.": Adv.
