To defraud, the, government of the
United States of its customs coming
here from the old world has been the
darln' wish of may women ever
since .\mericans have been able to in
dulge 'in the luxury of an ocean voy
age. 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.

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."

would refuise t~o fight on -Saturdays,

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

tion~ it was the unanimous decision
that an, operation which would sepa

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

ever heard of. My mother had a child
,who had a rash on its head when it
was real young. Doctor called it baby

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.!
