caught at tuidnight last night. Resi
dents disco, vred the party of ghouls
at work and blockaded the eiitrauce
with agu and carriage, standing
guard nli revolvers and shotguns.
Then men liad been oo the alert for
sotr.ethiug .-f the kiad, as several
graves iu the cemetery have recently
beeu robbed.
The p -litie arre.ted A. K. Zimmer

ghoulish work had the sanction of the

Lashes and Eyebrows.
Never tut or trim the eyebrows.
Their beauty in ludes delicacy deli
racy in cur e, width and teiture.
Trimming them d."troys this by caus
ing them to gi" coarse, stiff and
wild. To get the the well defined,
narrow arch, many I eanties pinch the
eyebrows, after anoint nig them with
oil to make the hair glossy.
A stray wiry or (tray hair may be
removed with a pair of tweeters, but
should never be cut.
On the other hand eyelashes are
cultivated by clipping them once a
year Hairdressers call it topping
them and the term is pertinent. Only
the irregular tip ends should be cut,
and this can only be done by an
other. Cutting the lashes weakens the eyes;
reiueinl er that.
Derivation of "Grass Widow."
The phrase "grass widow," or
rather "grace widow," for the first
has no foundation in fat-t, and is
simply a barbarism or fungus which
lias attached itself to the English
language. "Grace widow" is a term
fur one who becomes a widow By grace
or favor, not of necessity, as by death
and originated in the earlier ages of
European civilization, when divorces
were granted but seldom, and wholly
I y authority of the Catholic church.
When such decree was granted to a
woman the papal rescript stated "Vi
diica de gratia," which interperted is
'widotf of grace."
in the French it would read
"Veuve de grace," which in England
gives "widow of grace," or "grace
widow."
A. Vast Treasure Stolen
Jloukden was up to 200 years ago
the capital of China. Since that time
$5,000,000 a j ear has been stored there.
The Japanese wanted to get this vast
sum of fl 000,000,000 But a strange
story comes from Monkden. When
the Japanese reach Monkden to pos
sess themselves of the fabulous for
tunes accumulated there they will
not find the billions of taels, supposed
to be safely stored in Moukden's great
vaults. The treasury, according to
the story, is empty now and has been
so for years. Some one has removed
the hoarded wealth and this theft of
the price of empires has remained un
discovered, thanks to the confidence
reposed by the superstitious Chinese
in the protecting power of their many
gods
