Nearly everybody
knows that Ivory Soap
is the best of bath
soaps.
But a great many peo-
ple do not know that
Ivory Soap is just as
good for toilet use as for
the bath and for fine
laundry purposes.
It is though; and for
the very same reason.
It is pure soap; and
nothing else.

CONSPICUOUS FIGURE AT
ARTISTS COSTUME BALL
NOT the least picturesque and im-
posing figure at the artists'
costume ball held recently at
the Qrafton Galleries according to
the Sketch was that of the clever
lady who bears the name of the dis-
titiguished artist to whom all children
owe so great a debt of gratitude.
It is because she is a lover of old
customs that Mrs. Crane prefers to be
known always as Mistress Walter
Crane and in the delihtful autobiog-
raphy lately published by her husband
is a very pretty account of their
courtship and marriage.
Mistress Crane delights in all the
household arts; her embroideries soon
became famous among the members
of the pre-Raphaelite school one of
her most successful pieces of work of
the kind having been a transcript by
her of Mr. Crane’s ’’The Days of the
Week.”
Needless to say. this talented lady
shares Ruskin's view that everything
in a house should be either beautiful
or useful —if possible both—and in
her own home she has been excep-
tionally fortunate in being able to
carry out this high ideal.
after an extended visit to Mr. and
Mrs. Max B. Mayer.
Mrs. Lucy Thornton. Mrs. B. F.
Yoakum of New York Mrs. John Fra-
ser Mrs. Hardin Adams and Mrs. Sam
C. Bell formed a party which left this
morning to spend several days with
Mr. and Mrs. John Tobin on the
Thornton ranch near Floresville.
ROUND UP ALIENS
WHO PROVE PEACABLE
Patrolman Van Raub this morning
rounded up seven erstwhile citizens
of the Balkans and landed them at
the police station with all their bag-
gage. The aliens could speak no lan-
guage known at the police station
and as it was thought they were in
this country illegally. R. G. Callahan
Immigration inspector was notified of
their detention.
At the station Mr. Callahan ques-
tioned the prisoners in the Turkish
language and learned that they were
Macedonian miners who were on their
wav to San Francisco from which
point they will be sent to work In
some of the California mines.
One of the sextet wore carpet
sandals while the remaining six pos-
sessed American shoes. They each
had with them a letter from Most
Reverend Thaddeus Ivanovic arch-
bishop of Zinavore. Macedonia writ-
ten in Latin which stated that the
bearers were "Christians'' and not
"Mohammedans” and that they were
industrious and "desirable” citizens
of Macedonia. They also possessed
the inspection certificates of the New
York immigration officials and as
everything seemed to be all right the
police dismissed them.
Their papers showed that they
were Gega Sebin. Jacobin Rako Sim-
eon Pavin Jaco Martin Christo Cola.
Gega Tunin and Franno Jaco. They
left the police station with their packs
on their backs vociferously express-
ing their gratitude to the officer pres-
ent in the purest Macedonese.
Pust-Proof Corsets

’ EN ROUTE TO MEXICO
Six hundred homeseelters will leave

railroad en route for Valle. Mexico
where they will inspect various tracts
of land owned by an Oklahoma cor-
poration.
The Katy train brought In 150 of
the homeseekers this morning but
they decided to leave on the regular
train No. 5 of the I. & G. N. today.
Two extra Katy trains brought in
about 300 more and the regular I.
G. N. train carried an equal number
in three extra cars.
Tomorrow is the regular day for
the homeseekers' arrival in this city
and a larger number of them will
make the trip to Mexico.
This is one of the largest homeseek-
ers’ excursions originating from this
point. The Mexican National railroad
will handle the special from Laredo
to Monterey Mexico and the Mexican
Central will operate it over the Tam-
pico branch from Monterey to Valle.
While many of the homeseekers are
going to Valle for the purpose of ex-
amining the lands a large number
have already decided to remain there
APPENDICITIS
Grape-Nuts as a Reconstructing Food.
The number cf cases of appendicitis ।
which get well by proper feeding en 1
nursing is not less remarkable thaa I
the number of cases which were j
(formerly oper ited on only to find I
that the operation was unnecessary.
While looking for the cause of this
disease it is well to remember that
excessive starch fermentation maj
be considered a frequent cause and
that suggests more care in the use of
etarchv foods.
Grape-Nuts can be retained on the
most sensitive stomach and is ex-
tremely nourishing—just the Ideal
food for appendicitis cases.
"Las> Spring I was taken ill with
appendicitis.” writes an Ind. man.
“The doctor told me not to be
alarmed for he would do the best be
could to save me from the operating
table. .
"He advised me to eat nothing for
two weeks during which time I be-
came so weak I could hardly moie.
! The trouble began to leave me ana 1
[ began to eat fruits and milk but I
i did not regain the strength I had be-
fore I was sick.
"A friend of mine recommended
Grape-Nuts. I tried It and it worked
wonders with me. I soon began to j
gain in strength and in a month was
as strong as ever.
"I don't think I ever used a food
that did me so much good. I now
weigh 160 lbs. as against 130 befort
I was sick all due to Grape-Nuts and
regular exercise.
“My muscles are like iron and I
can do the hardest work. Being em-
ployed in a printing office. I have to
think a lot. and mv mind is clear
thanks 'to Grape-Nuts.'' “There's a
Reason." Name given by Postum Co..

- ONE OF THE MEN
WHO WILL BE
CHOSEN TO OFFICE
H. E. CROWLEY OF MIDLAND TEX
Secretary and General Manager of the
Cattle Raisers’ Association.
Mr. Crowley was elected to the re-
sponsible position he now occupies at
last year's convention held in Fort
Worth succeeding Capt. John T. Lytle
of San Antonio whose death a tew
weeks prior to the 1907 convention
was looked upon as a calamity -by
the stockmen of the southwest. Mr.
Crowley for many years has devoted
himself to the stock interests of
Texas and his administration of his
office during the past year has won
for him the highest compliment that
a could desire —the fact that he
will be re-elected without opposition.

FIND NEW SCENT IN
PRIEST’S MURDER
Denver. Col. March 18. —The News
today says:
“To an Italian woman in Paterson
N. J . Giuseppe Alio who murdered
Father Leo Heinrich at the altar of
St. Elizabeth Catholic church in this
city whispered this black prophesy
on the eve of his departure for the
weat: ’Within six months you will
hear of a murder that will shock the
world’ said he. When over the wire
came the news of the assassination in
Denver the woman stricken with
terror repeated the words of Alio.
"Father Usebius while in Paterscn
whither he journeyed with the body
of the dead priest was informed of
the interview which Alio had with
the woman and caused inquiries to
be made. He returned to Denver last
night with news that may put the
police on the track of a bloodthirsty
band of anti-clericals.”
