HIS COSTLY PLUNGE LASTING I
Millionaire's Bath in Champagne Pos
sibly Has Made Him Disdainful
of Humble Water.
- A Kansas City man with extensive
Interests In the new Texas oil fields
has come back with a new story con
cerning the foibles and follies of oil
millionaires.
"There's a fellow down In the
Banger field who made a couple of
million or so. He never had pos
teessed much money before; probably
had had trouble meeting his grocery
bills and rent. Just as soon. as he
got hold of those millions he made a
firm declaration of his Intents and
purposes.
" 'I'm gonna go over into Louisiana
and take a champagne bath,' this new
made millionaire declared.
"And he did. Took a bath In the
finest champagne he could buy. Had
cases of the bubbling stuff brought up
to his hotel suite and dumped into his
bathtub. And now he tells every
body he meets about it.
"But the funny part of It is that
he seems to have sworn off bathing
altogether after that $1,000 ablution.
Maybe he disdains bathing in mere
water now."
Cousin Bill says: "The crow may
be a troublesome bird but he never
gets noisy without caws."

An evening wrap, to be Avorn with
a variety of evening dresses, may be in
a color, but cannot exceed, and rarely
equals, a wrap of black satin for ele
gance and good style. Therefore the
evening wrap of black satin is a per
ennial that comes to bloom with each
new season ; an Institution in the ward
robe. There are some new weaves In silk,
very- soft and rich, that have a lus
ter as high as that of satin, and they
are competing with it for favor In
evening wraps. There is not much
choice between them, as they are very
much alike in appearance. The new
fabrics have the advantage of novelty,
while satin has a wonderful record
behind It, but whatever the fabric, the
styles In wraps made from them are
the same.
This season's evening wraps are

When negligees come up for consid

hard to be in the least degree prac

this most Intimate dress that design
ers" can give free rein to fancy and
let it play with the ancient fabrics,
the filmiest laces, crepes and nets, the
gayest ribbons and all the lovely lit
tle silk and satin flounces that lure
them to extravagances. They indulge
in many caprices and draw inspira
tion from all quarters of the world. But
there are negligees that are practical
as well as .pretty and two of them
are shown in the picture above.
One of these is a simple, graceful
garment, which Is very much like the
regulation Japanese kimono. But it
follows the lines of the figure more
closely and has sleeves that are set
In, with a point at the top and all
seams outlined with a narrow fancy
braid. Ths length of the figure Is
not broken by a wide sash, as In the
Japanese garment, but a narrow gir
dle of satin defines the waistline. This
negligee Is made of bright-colored
satin and cannot be Improved upon

The negligee at the right of the

For Oily Skin.
Oily skins usually are caused by a
rich diet of sweets, gravies and heavy
fried foods, and when this Is the case
no local treatment will rectify the con
dition. Attention then must be paid to
what one eats. If your diet Is not the
cause, treat the oily skin as follows:

A beautiful example of the black
satin wrap appears in the illustra
tion. It is a loose, short cape with a
shawl collar, to which the body of
the wrap is joined by an embroidered
band. The band is narrow with fig
ures In brilliant colors that remind
one of jewels. The same colors are
used In the large embroidered disks
that adorn the wrap at each side of
the front. Even a 4ery youthful bride
will be regal looking in a wrap of this
kind, especially if she wears a crest
of plumes in her hair like Guinevere

A Feeling of Security

and excellence is maintained in every

It is scientifically compounded from
vegetable herbs.
It is not a stimulant and is taken in
teaepoonful doses.
' It is not recommended for everything.
It is nature's great helper in relieving

A sworn statement of purity is with
every bottle of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-

At Half Rates.
Several years ago, when I was dep
uty recorder of an Illinois county, I
witnessed the wedding of a prosperous
young farmer.
The ceremony was performed by the
county Judge, whose customary fee
was $2; however. In cases where the
bridegroom happened to be well to do.
the old judge made no charge, leaving
the size of the fee up to him, and, in
such instances, usually received a $5
or $10 bill.
So In this case, when asked his fee.
the judge said, "Well, I always leave
that to the bridegroom." So the young
man handed him a sealed envelope and
departed with his bride.
After the couple were well on their
way home the judge, feeling sure of
having received a good-sized fee, care
fully tore open the envelope. It con
tained a neatly folded $1 bill. Chicago

one hundred francs from Scholl for
