"Just like 1830."
WE luckiest girl I know Is that 'blue-
eyed beauty sitting opposite me." an-
Fnounced Cicely as sho spread her sixth
h buckwheat cako generously with raspberry
. and currant Jam,
"Robin, there's no limit to June Arnold's
allowance. Think of ltl Her dad sends
1 clitr wads of money whenever she asks, and
ana ouys an aorta or rooiisn things mac una
can't possible use. Just becauso she's got so
' much to spend. I mndo nor promise when
you asked us hero that she wouldn't buy
a pin until she reached tho city. I had a
hard time to keep her from landing on
your doorstep with a trunk filled with use
less frippery. Now that she's safo In your
hands, tako her downtown today and let
her throw her money away on decent-looking
clothes."
So, leaving tho other three Rtrls to enter
tain themselves, June and I "made tracks"
for downtown. She said that she wanted
to buy a set of furs and a hat first
We stopped at a shop that specializes In
bvely things for the younger generation.
we soon found that a youthful set or
furs Is as hard to find as tho lost treasure
t the Montezumas.
.June was "strong" for a. muff and scarf
ot tailless crmlno. She la very small, and
the long, wide scarf seemed a big burden
for such a. little person to carry. The muff
Was melon-shaped and of medium size
Quito an right, but tho scarf dwarfed her.
I frankly told June my objections to tho
Mt and she was senslblo enough to seo
that they were not wrong.
Then she tried on a set of moleskin with
J neckpteco shaped exactly like a Capuchin
hood trimmed with a largo tassel of gray
ttlk and a small "granny" muff. It was
More youthful than anything we had seen,
out June would not consider It. She said
that the mutt wasn't largo enough, and
that the set was too cheap.
This gave the saleswoman her cue to
Mng out the best sets In stock.'
All of them consisted of pelerines of gen
erous proportions, and muffs whose chief
waricterlstlo was their oddity In shape.'
I soon discovered that June had a
"quaint" style that qugnt to be enhanced.

The only thing to do when these danger

Then scrub your face each day to
cleanse the skin thoroughly with warm

the particles of grease and dust that are
clogging the pores. Then bathe the skin

$2,000,000 INHERITANCE TAX
SOUGHT OF CATTLE KING'S HEIRS
TJ. S. Probes Report Miller Will Was
IWado for Evasion
WASinNOTON, Nov. 21. In an effort
to collect a f 2,000,000 Inheritance tax from
the 20,000,000 estate of Henry' Miller, mil
lionaire cnttlo baron, who died October 2
at Oakland. Cat., Commissioner of Internal
Revenue W. II. Osborn today ordered a
thorough Investigation of tho circumstances
surrounding tho making of Miller's wIlL
It Is alleged Miller wrote the 'will threo
years ago, bequeathing all his property to
his daughter, Mrs. J. Leroy Nickel, of San
Francisco, In an effort to avoid an Inher
itance tax.
Miller was the biggest cattle baron In the
United States and tho most extensive land
holder. It was said he wintered his thou
sands ot cattle In Mexico and summered
them In Canada. His ranches extended
through both those countries and the United
States. Miller started life as a. butcher

Chief Dnvis Says a Good Rain Will Fix

Residents of West Philadelphia and Qer

who receive their water supply from the
Schuylkill Rtvor sources are complaining
of a taste, somewhat Indescribable, but de
cidedly unpleasant. This, nccordlng to
Chief Davis, of the Water Bureau, Is due
to decayed vegetable matter and marine
growth In the river.
"It will all disappear as soon as thero
Is a good rain which will remove the stag
nation of the river and gtve a flow," Chief
Davis said.

ATLANTIC CITY'S GIRL COMPTROLLER
MODEL OP BUSINESS EFFICIENCY
Miss Bdssio Townsend's Un
derstanding of Duties of
Responsible Post Makes
Her Indispensable
First Stehographer, Then
Clerk, She Is Promoted
When Chief Is Removed.
Politicians Grieved
ATLANTIC C1TT, Nov. M-Ilesle
Townsend, Atlantic City's girl comptroller
whose reappointment for one year to that
desirable 13600 berth has caused much
Mistress among shore politicians. Is an ex
ample of common-sense feminine emcleney
and Its possibilities.
Miss Townsend, then Just out of High
School, went Into the comptroller's otllca
about ten years ago, aa stenographer to
Alfred M, lleaton, at that tlmo known
aa the "watchdog of Atlantlo City's treas
ury." He was the first Incumbent of the
place. She was probably the most com.
peUnt stenographer Mr Heston or any
other Atlantic City official eVer had.
Almost In no time, so to speak, she
Jumped from stenographer to chief clerk.
In tho meantime, the tali, slim and light
haired young woman had made a stu dy
of municipal finance and found as much
delight In acquainting herself with the
Intricacies of bond Issues, premiums and
other technical subjects relating to tho
tlscal side of city government as the aver
nge young woman gels out of those diver
sions which appeal to most young women.
She made a study of hnnklng nn the side,
because she did not know a great deal
about that subject, to make sure the city
was getting all the Interest that was duo
from the banks where municipal funds were
kept on deposit, nnd to keep tnba upon the
accounts of departmental officials, some of
whom were old enough to bo her grand
father. STATS WIIBN CHIEF OOK3
Consequently, when Boss Kuehnle, who
ran Atlantlo City In those days, got the
goat, politically speaking, of "Watchdog
Heston becauso Heston at times obstinately
declined to approve certain bills whlch.tho
town's political dictator held should have
been approved forthwith, and caused tho
wntchdog to bo thrown out nnd replaced
by David XL Barrett, who was Kuehnle s
First Ward llmitenanL the calmly con
fident and ndmlttedly competent chief clerk
stayed right on the Job Somebody had
to know all about how to get out bond
Issues nnd keep things running until tho
now comptroller took his prlmnry course
In munlclpnl financiering, and Miss Town
send know all about It She was the Comp
troller, In fact. In those stirring times,
although Barrett drew tho salary.
In 1912 Atlantlo City adopted the com
mission plan of government "Hill" Itlddle
became Mayor. KUehnle wont by the board,
politically eclipsed, niddle did not like
Kuehnle men and when Barrett Injudi
ciously Issued a comptroller's warrant for n
railroad claim, which the new Mayor had
refused to approve, Illddle proceeded to
have him fired Incontinently.
BECOMES COMPTROLLER
Riddle had been studying the work of
the young woman who nctually ran the
comptroller's ofllco. She seemed to have
ovorythlng relating to the fiscal department
nt her finger tips. If nnybody wanted to
know nnythlng about how much the Board
walk cost to maintain or how much money
would have to be raised for this purpose or
that, she told them.
The upshot of It waa that Mayor Riddle
gave her the title of comptroller and caused
tho salary to bo raised from 11800 to 2B00
a year when Barrett went Miss Townsend
oppressed her thanks and attended strict
ly to business, -flho worked. Just - as hard
as before, won the commendation of expert
accountants, went to a national convention
of city comptrollers, gave a talk on fiscal
financiering that made some qf the gray
heads sit up and take notlco and Bhowed
her ability aa an organizer by directing a
staff ot three men and two girl 'clerks as
the work of the office doubled and almost
trebled.
All of which explains why, with poli
ticians who delivered the goods In the big
city commission battle of last May which
sent Riddle Into the discard, clamoring that
It was a shame to keep a woman In a
J2500 Job with so many of tho "boys" wait
ing to be taken care of, the City Commis
sion on Thursday last reappointed the girl
comptroller for one year.
Tho whys and the wherefores of the
one-year appointment havo not been ex
plained. Miss Townsend's friends, and they
includo a great many big taxpayers, do
not understand It The city charter speci
fies n three-year term. The understanding,
politically. Is that somebody thinks thrs
provision of the charter has been superseded
in some wny by the commission supplement
and that the commissioners could have
named her for only six months If they had
