Miss Multimillionaire, secure in her social position, did not like to be held up on the dock and made to pay large sums for being caught trying-to swindle the government. But when she is caught finally she chafes under her treatment, but society stands by her and that encourages others to fol. low her example. To remove this prop from the fash. lonable woman the authorities have decided to jail those caught in de frauding Uncle Sam of his dues. This penalty, it is thought, will prevent rep. utable women from engaging in the business. The first to suffer the imprisonmentl and the odium which attaches to it is' Mrs. Roberta G.

ADVENTIST SENT TO PRISON German Soldier Refuses to Obey Or ders on Saturday Despite Two Sentences. Berlin. - Privat? .Naumann has every prospect of spending 'the rd mainder of, his life in priso0n because lie persistenuly ref uses to submit to military discipline on Saturday. Naumann, wvho belongs to the sect known as the Adventists, declarea that. Baturday ic the' real Sabbath, and that Ray -liind of work on that day, cven the lightest, is in the highest degree sinful. When he became a soldier 'in 1907 he refused to chey any orders between sunset on Friday and sun set en Saturday. -.,. Hie was in consequence sentenced. to three months' imprisonment, .but when released resumed his' mutinous' :-onduct and received a second sen tence otf two .years' imprisonment. When releasedl agali he re'fused oliedi nce and was sentenced to fiye .years' 'Inprisonment. On: app~eal, the higher military court retriedl the case. Questioned by the presiding officer of the court, Nau mann declared that as a Christian sol dlier- li duty was to obey the religious. law andl refuse all work on the Sab bath. A systematic study (of the Bible liad convinced him that it was wrong to regardl Sunday as the Sabbath, which was really Saturday. It was poinlted out that continued persistence in this attitude would in evitably result. in Ils spendinlg his en-. .liro life withlin Prison walls,.and the. presiding officer asked wvhether Nau-* mann was pl'ep~ared to' accept such conseHquenlces. Nau mann relied: "Yes, certainly." Questiloned whether in war .he would refuise t~o fight on -Saturdays, Napimann replied that lie would then obey ordlers because , the dlanger to the Fatherland would justify it.

THESE BABY TWINS LIKE SIAMESE PAIR' BOYS ARE BOUND TO3ElTHER BY LIGAMENT AT BASE OF THE SPINE. DOCTORS CANNOT PART THEM Examination Convinced Medical Men That Separation Would Moan Death-Little Follows Speak Sev. eral Languages.. New Orleans.-Lucio and Sinplico Giodino are the most remarkable ba bles in the world. They are twins, not tluite three years old, and are our lit tle brown brothers of the Philippino islands. Of course, there's nothing so remarkable about that, but listen: Nature has so joined the flesh of these little fellows that even the great est of human surgeons do not dare to part them. Back to back they will have to go throughout their wholo lives. When one dies the other must of necessity follow him into eternity. Nature has so decreed. A compact but somewhat elastic mass of tissues joins them together at the base of the spine. *Just like our "everyday" twins, the kind more or less common throughout the whole! country, Lucio and Simplico play with jumping-jacks, blow horns, hug their dollies, and pound on toy drums. h'lhey usually play sittin'g on the floor, as under the circumstances they cannot use chairs. Loosely fitting dresses make then look much like one big baby with two heads. But. !n doors they dliscard most of their cloth-' ing, and romp about with much of their bodices exposed. And just like ordinary twins, they quarrel, fight and go after each other with little fists and finger nails. They both speak 1nglish as well as American children of about their age. Besides Ithat they speak a little Spanish and German a. But of course they know Filipino best. It is nothing unusual for Lucio to be talking English while at tI .e. same time Simplico will be speaking in another language. At tinmes when they are not both wanting to play with the same toy at the same time, Lucio and Sinplico amre The~ Fiipn Twins. fetoT'he Fono-in Treins.'ytoc they fl of The-on o gth ofi airst plamates.Ofco, the toe aaysve fcoal eh other about Ve walki Simplico Is (rageraln bquieand. siome. what reserved, while Luclo is erratic andl quick tempered(i, 'When-JLcio be gins to get "'het up" about a little dif ferenice of opi'nion and shows a dispo sition to start something,, Simplico just..gets up and walks away; that keeps Lucio busy trailing along he bind and backwards.

After a most thoroughl examina tion~ it was the unanimous decision that an, operation which would sepa mate the babies would be0 fatal to both I. The twins were born in Samnar islandl in the Philippine archipelago, of native parents. They were found by J. R. Louis and M. A. Clark, wealth'y Americans living in the islands. The American protectors of the twins say they will take the b~oysi around the world in the interest of science, that they will be exhibited before medical clinics in the great hospitals of America and Europe, and that under no circumstances will they be exhibited in public., The parents of the twins, who are also in America now, were at flrat fim mensely proud of their curious twins, and took great pleasure in showing them to strangers who happened to visit the little Filipino village. Later on, as the parents became more civil ized and Americanized, they looked forward with great joy to the separa tion of the children, but now, that the surgeons have rendered their verdict against attempting an operation both mother and father are once more rocnniled.

My mother had a child ,who had a rash on its head when it was real young. Doctor called it baby rash. lie gave us medicine, but it did no good. In a few days the head was a solid mass; a running sore. it was awful, the child cried continually. we had to hold him and watch him to keep him from scratching the sore. Illis suffering was dreadful. At last we remembered Cuticura Rome dies. We got a dollar bottle of Cuti. cura Resolvent, a box of Cuticura Ointment, and a bar of Cuticura Soap. We gave tho Resolvent as directed, washed the head with the Cuticura Soap, and applied the Quticura Oint ment. We had not use'd half before the child's head was clear and free from eczema, and it has never come back again. lls head was healthy and he had a beautiful head of hair.!
