GREWSOME JOKE
IS BOOMERANG
FARCICAL HANGING STARTS
TROUBLE
WOMEN PROMPTLY FAINT
Picnickers Have Jolly Time Until,
Practical Joker Gets Busy,
When All Goes ,
Wrong _ '
What some folks won't do to libel
the , pastime denominated "fun" la
without the realms of ordinary Imag
ination, but what other folks actually
did In that line represents the superla
tive side of ridiculous attempts at teas-
W the risibilities through the aid of
the grewsome.
A few days ago a party of a dozen
■young men and women of .Los Angeles
mndo an excursion into Laurel can
won for a day of picnicking and romp
ing among the sage and cragged cliffs
{overhanging that wild and desolately
beautiful place.
, All sorts of capers were cut and
great fun was extracted in various
schemes representing a fertility of
mind and an ingenuity of the masculine
"chaperone" truly marvelous.
After playing monkey for several
hours, during which time the males
climbed trees and dropped imaginary
cocoanuts upon the heads of their fair
victims, the "clown cook," who de
clines the advertising to be derived
from the mere mention of the popular
name which graces his calling cards,
thought It would be great sport to have
himself hung In true western style,
a la horsethief.
He whispered his daredevil scheme
into the ears of his male companions
and a diabolical scheme was inaugurat
ed whereby. It was hoped, future
growth of the young women would be
eternally stunted in me paroxysm of
fear which the terrorizing aspect of a
lynching bee was calculated to pro
duce.
A few minutes before the start was
made for homo the male members,
who had purposely become separated
from their fair companions for nearly
an hour, were heard rushing through
the bullrushes, which didn't exist,' and
falling down the mountain side, accom
panied by a perfect alid very spectacu
lar hall storm of flying gravel, which
they dug up in their mad scramble, all
of them yelling in voices which were
calculated to put the craziest Apache
to shame.
As the party came Into view the
young women excitably sprang to their
feet, ready to see a polar bear or a
real live mountain lion gnawing at the
heels of the flying squadron of mascu
linity. But instead they saw their
"clown cook." hatless, breathless, coat
less and with blanched face dashing
down the canyon with the other males
at his heels.
As the party came near unto the wo
men, the pursuers overtook the pur
sued and overpowered him, after
roughly throwing him to the ground
and tying his hands and feet. Inco
herent gasps of fragmentary blasphemy
came in pantalets from the mouths of
the frenzied men and a rope was quick
ly thrown over the limb of a nearby
tree, after being securely tied to the
"clown cook," and he was mercilessly
strung up amid the firing of volleys
from the suicide weapons carried by
the men.
Excited, the young maids did not no
tice the fact that the revolvers were
fired over the head of the supposed vic
tim, nor the fact that the rope to
which he was dangling had been tied
to his feet before being buoyed
around his neck.
It was all so sudden, so perfectly
real, and the apparent frenzy of the
men in their desire to mete out sum
mary punishment upon one of their
party for some mysterious wrong, to
gether with the thrilling pursuit
through the canyon, it is small wonder
the women folk imagined they were
witnessing a tragedy in which they
were speechlessly and In spellbound
terror forced to view, and they did the
natural thing for women under the cir
cumstances—fainted.
Another of the party, who was In on
the doings, pulled his kodak and made
a snapshot of the execution.
After the fair young women had de
cided to faint away, the men became
excited in the knowledge that they had
better get busy with the restoratives
and forgot all about the "clown rook,"
and when the rope was released by the
men holding onto It, ho was uncere
moniously permitted to drop into the
creek, where he sputtered around in
n helpless state for the very good rea
son that his hands had been tlod be
hind him and his feet were wedded to
the rope with which he was hung.
Cries for help brought him quick as
sistance, and after a few minutes'
work the -womenfolk were restored to
consciousness.
It Is related that everybody became
angry, and the gloom which pervaded
the camp was so thick It could be
seen and the menfolks refused to
speak to each other for over an hour.
The "clown cook" Is blamed for it
all, and he is trying to figure out
where he had half as much fun us any
body else. However, the Intervention
of mutual friends will probably auc
cerd In patching up a speaking ac
quaintance among them ere long.

was that given, at the Woman's club
house, at which Miss Phila Borden

The luncheon room arrangement was
artistic in every particular. A large
center table, laden with "ferns, stood
under a canopy of asparagus plumosus
and surrounding this there were smaller
tables placed in a circle. Chiffon rib
bons In the most delicate of pastel
shade* was extended from the center
of the canopy to each of the small ta
bles and a graceful cascade fell from
the center. Sweet peas In the same deli
cate pastel shades, from the deepest of
rose color to the palest of yellow, were
employed in the center of these tables.
Place cards were dainty bits of water
color board bearing sketches of sweet
peas. Following the luncheon hour the
guests spent an afternoon in playing
hearts.
Those for whom covers were laid
were Mrs. Robert Marsh, Mrs. Mllbank
Johnson, Mrs. L. M. Selby, Mrs. Edgar

NEW SCIENTIFIC PROI'KSS.
A Preparation Discovered Tlint Will Destroy
the. Dnndrufl- «ierm
For some time it hns been known that
dandruff is caused by a germ that dlirs up
the Kcalp into llttlo white flakes, and by
sapping the vitality of tho hair at the root
causes falling hair and, of course, finally
linldntfs. For y°ars there have hecu all
l.inds of hair Mlmulants and scalp tonics
on the market, but there has been no per
manent cure for dandruff until the discovery
of a preparation called Nowbro's Herplclde,
which destroys the dandruff Rcrm. Destroy
the cause, thn effect will cease to exist.
Kill the dandruff form and you'll havo no

Jif nI m No matter what style of dress
/v'-'\|J '\r one wishes to affect— whether
a coat or costume of the Louis mode,
or the severe tailor made — there is a
"Sapphire" or "Bon Ton" model de-
signed especially for each fashion.
However, despite the many models, each
designed for a certain figure, and with the most
specific intentions— we might more accurately
say because of these facts — it is most import-
ant for each wearer to have her model selected
carefully.
The professional service given in our cor-.
set-fitting rooms assures you of an absolutely
perfect fit.
Sapphire Corsets $6.50 to $25.
Bon Ton Corsets $3.50 to $7.50.
Royal Worcesters $1 to $4.
