■fflW WORKS OF O.HENRY FOUND Publisher, Here to See Mrs. Corra Harris, Tells of Noted Writer’s Texas Paper. Peyton Steger, of Doubleday, Page & Co., publishers, is in Atlanta today, aft er a call on Mrs Corra Harris, whose forthcoming novel probably will be published by his company. He spent several days with Mrs. Harris, who is ▼isiting friends in the country near Cartersville, and they discussed the new novel, which Mr. Steger thinks •will equal any of the previous works of the brilliant Georgia author. Mr. Steger has been at the old home of O. Henry, the literary genius who died a short time ago. O. Henry, whose real name was William Sidney Porter, ■was an intimate friend of the publisher, and Mr. Steger has been visiting the Btory writer’s old haunts In Texas. "In Austin, hidden away by a woman ■who had treasured them, I found 62 copies of “The Rolling Stone,' a little weekly paper which O. Henry had pub lished years ago and long before he achieved his reputation as America’s greatest short story writer," said Mr. fiteger. "Every Tine in them was writ ten by Porter, and they were illustrated with cartoons from his pen. It is, not generally known, but O. Henry was an Unusually clever cartoonist. "Those old papers proved that Porter had, even then, the sperk which after ward blossomed into genius. The pa pers were full of the quaint humor Which marked his later and riper work.” Mr. Steger expects to write a life of O. Henry which will Include a number bf the author’s letters He gained much nf the material for this work In his tour of the Southwest Ade luxe edition of O.

UO IMITATES PARISBANDITS Barricades Himself in House, Firing on Police, and Is Proud When Captured. PARIS, May 29.—A large amount of mischief has been created by a lad of 13 dwelling at a village near Aurillao, whom a perusal of the account of the ex ploits of the motor brigands had fired with the ambition to emulate the performance of Bonnet. After some reflection he de cided on reproducing the scene at Du bois’ garage at Choisy-le-Rol. and ac cordingly, arming himself with an axe, he fell upon and severely wounded his brother, afterwards putting their father, who had come to the child's res cue. to flight. The young bandit then proceeded to a neighboring house, from which he took a gun. some ready-made cartridges and a collection of bullets and powder for the manufacture of more; and, barricading himself in the place., awaited develop ments. These warlike preparations hav ing attracted notice, siege was presently laid to the house, but the bolder assail ants were soon warned by a series of shots to retreat, the boy shouting in great glee: "You will have to blow me up!" Gendarmes appeared on the spot, only to be treated in their turn to some of his target practice, and as a council of war was being held, the lad ran up to a loft, slipped out of a window after the manner of Bonnet, and, dropping on the ground, ran off as fast as he could. From time to time, however, he halted to take shot at his nearest pursuers, and he succeeded in reaching a wood. As bls cartridges were soon exhausted, he hid himself in a thicket, and was engaged on making more when he was discovered. All the same he offered a stout resistance, and, when finally led off to prison, he walked along with evident pride at his performance.

WARNING TO USERS OF SO-CALLED SUPERFLUOUS HAIR “CURES” Every woman must realize that even when a soft fuzz is removed by- these so-called superfluous hair “cures." which stimulate the growth after each removal, that it will only be a question of time before she will have to resort to the use of the razor, because even tually the hair will become so coarse that no preparation will be strong enough to remove It without ruining the skin.. Why take the risk of disfigurement by using these unknown and uncertain means for removing superfluous hair, when there is such a safe method as DeMiracle—the one perfected, non poisonous and harmless depilatory that dissolves hair, thereby taking the vi tality out of It, consequently retarding and preventing an increased growth?

COURTS OUST ALABAMA SHERIFF FROM OFFICE MONTGOMERY, ALA., May 29. Christopher C. Scheuing, sheriff of Cullman county, was ousted from office under a decision of the state supreme court, affirming the Cullman county circuit court Justice Simpson dissent ed and Chief Justice Dowdell did not sit in the case.

In. the meantime the coroner of Cullman county serves as sheriff. ever been indorsed by reputable physi cians, surgeons, dermatologists, medi cal journals, prominent magazines and newspapers, we will send copies of the testimonials on request. The mere fact that fake-dangerous preparations are short-lived should alone be sufficient warning to avoid the use of any depilatory but that of proven merit. DeMiracle has stood the test of time. It was the largest selling de pilatory ten years ago and more of it has been sold each year since than the combined sales of the nostrums. All reliable dealers sell and recom mend DeMiracle, knowing it to be the best and safest depilatory. Some un principled ones will tell you they can not procure it so that they may more easily influence you to purchase their own or possibly some other dangerous, worthless substitute under another la bel for a few cents more profit. To protect you from just such imposition. If your dealer will not supply you, mail us SI.OO and we will send you, all charges paid, in plain, sealed wrapper, a SI.OO bottle of DeMiracle, and we will make you a present of a full-size jar of DeMiracle Cream.
