BEAUTY IS WED
ON HER DEATHBED
Pittsburgh Girl Who Set Fash
ions of World Marries Rich
Frenchman
Paris, July 25. Henry Leteller.
formerly the owner of the Paris
Journal, large stockholder In the
Menier Chocolate Company and one
of the wealthiest of Frenchmen, re
cently married Peggy Gillespie, for
merly of Pittsburgh, on her deathbed.
The bride came to France six years
ago, and had been a prominent figure
at the Longchamps and other race
courses, wearing the Paquln gowns.
She was not a mannequin, but con
sented to appear in Paquln's "crea
tons," as she had an extensive circle
of friends among wealthy and titled
Europeans.
After the war began she became in
terested in various relief work char
:ties.
She consented to marry Letellier
about the time she fell ill with quick
consumption.
Held to Promise
When the doctors announced that
death was near she tried to break the
engagement, but Letellier finally per
suaded her to become his wife before
she died.
For more than two years little
Peggy Gillespie was one of the most
brilliant figures of the gay life of
Paris. By her wit and charm and the
dash with which she dressed she set
a pace which the other glittering wo
men of the French capital found dif
ficult to follow. In fact, she set the
styles for the whole world. Wherever
there was a gathering of the beauty
and fashion of Pans, Peggy Gillespie
TOS always there, outshining the oth
ers like a star.
Her entertainments in her sump
tuous apartment in the Avenue Henri
Martin were famous for their bril
liance, and she numbered among her
acquaintances many of the highest
(title and distinction in Europe.
, Not only in Paris, but at Monte
'Carlo and Trouville, where French
fashion, which is the fashion of the
world, reaches its zenith, Peggie
Gillespie, by her extravagance and
daring eccentricities, was a remark
able figure.
Like an Empire Beauty
A French writer described her as
ranking with the reckless beauties of
the Second Empire. She was then
only 24 years old.
As long ago as 1909 a consultation
of physicians was called to consider
her health, and it was found that she
was a victim of tuberculosis. As a
result of this she was ordered to the
south of France, and at Hyeres she
lived for a time in a tent with a spe
cial kitchen, two motorcars and a
train of servants.
Peggie Gillespie was born at Punxa
tawney. Pa., but spent her girlhood in
Pittsburgh, where she was married to
George McClelland of that city.
Cocoanut Oil Fine
For Washing Hair
If you want to keep your hair in
good condition, be careful what you
wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali. This dries
the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and
is very harmful. Just plain mulsi
fied cocoanut oil (which is pure and
entirely greaseless), is much better
than the most expensive soap or any
thing else you can use for shampooing,
as this can't possibly injure the hair
Simply moisten your hair with water
«.nd rub it in. One or two teaspoon
fuls will make an abundance of rich
creamy lather, and cleanses the hair
and scalp thoroughly. The lather rinses
out easily, and removes every particle
of dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive
oil. The hair dries quickly and even
ly, and It leaves it fine and silky,
bright, fluffy and easy to manage.
You can get mulslfied cocoanut oil
at most any drug store. It Is very
cheap, and a few ounces is enough to
last everyone in the family for
months.—Advertisement.

DISCREPANCY OF
$243 IN 11 YEARS
[Continued Front First Page]
the report says:
The Only Shortage
"During the year of 1905 a shortage
was discovered in the city tax stubs of
approximately $lO4, which was made
good by Mr. Copelin in March, 1916.
During the balance of the period the
city tax stubs are isi agreement with
cash received per treasurer's records.
A number of differences were also
found in water rent stubs, being mostly
errors in footings. These differences
in all amount to $243.54 of which
$216.89 occur in 1905 and the remain
der at various times during the follow
ing years. Mr. Copelin stated to us
that he was of the opinion that at the
time he had settled the 1905 tax short
age his total settlements were about
S2BO which he belieevd also included
a shortage in water collections. After
diligent search we were unable to dls
cbver any record of any settlement
other than the $lO4 referred to above.
The difference of $24 3.54 mentioned
above represents the amount by which
the water rent stubs exceed the
amount entered in the treasurer's cash
book as being received by him."
Some Recommendations
The method of handling the mil
lions of dollars in the collection of
taxes, expenditures of public improve
ment loans, etc., were approved by the
auditors and the accounts were found
to be correct. In commenting on the
city's bonded Indebtedness the audi
tors point out that the water depart
ment has been paying interest on its
share of the first public improvement
loan without receiving credit for the
yearly reduction debt. The depart
ment has paid out about $10,850. By
redemption of bonds from sinkingfund
the water department's share of this
loan has been reduced from $310,000 to
$175,000. This, it is pointed out is due
to the fact that the city has perform
ed service in collecting water rents. A
better plan, the auditors suggest would
be to fix a certain sum for this pur
pose and charge it in the budgets ac
cordingly. The auditors' note that
rate netted on sinking fund Invest
ments has been 4 per cent., and while
the bank balances have earned only
from 95 per cent, to 1.91. In order to
facilitate the work in the city treas
urer's office, the auditors suggest the
adoption of a machine specially con
structed for stamping receipts .stubs,
etc. Scrap book binders are suggested
for handling the bonds and coupons.
In conclusion the report commends
the method of handling street im
provements, suggests that too much
unnecessary posting has been done in
the past, and commends the method
of making daily balances.

CHAPTER SI
Physicians, parents and iiuarillaiii of
children will do well to examine Into
the statement that tuberculosis chll
dren succumb more quickly when nour
ished wit b sugars and starches and
that such children, while appearing
plump, round and well-nourished, are
water-logged and show sllKht resist
ing power against the Invasion of di
sease.
We know now positively that gran
ulated sugar, white bread and bls
| cults, denatured cereal breakfast foods,
commercial corn meal, polished rice and
glucose provide none of the alkaline
bases Indispensable to health.
We know now positively that the
body is tenacious of Its fixed alkaline
I bases, and on a diet deficient in these
j bases it cannot long supply the neces
jsary quantity of alkali required to neu
tralize the organic acids which are
dally elaborated in the blood and tis
sues as a result of the decomposition
of proteins, fats and carbohydrates.
On the one hand there is a defi
ciency of bases in our refined foods and
on the other an excess of carbohy
drates. Xo scientist would dare to
claim seriously in the presence of
these facts that a physiological equili
brium can be maintained permanently
on such a broken balance. i
Blucose, now used in the manufac
ture of many commercial foods, in
cluding nearly all the candles on the
market, is a mineral-free carbohydrate
of artificial origin.
Packard says cancer is due to a diet
of mineral-free carbohydrates.
•Armand Gautier has demonstrated
| that the loss of minerals by excretion
ils offset only by constant intake.
Neither glucose nor any other refined
food contributes to this intake.
Starling and Foster have demon
strated that animals fed on demin
eralized or refined food die sooner than
if not fed at all. The demlneralized
canned beef, the extractives of which
were all boiled out before canning to
make beef extract and canned soup,
which caused so much sickness among
our troops during the Spanish-Amer
ican war, is a furher illustration of
this fact.
Prof. Wilson says mineral starva
tion is followed by dire consequences.
Takaki. Chamberlain, and Vedder
have demonstrated that the mineral
deficiency of refined food is respon
sible for high mortality among breast
fed Infants. Mother's milk lacks min
eral matter in accordance with the
mineral deficiency of her food.
Drennin attributes the rapid course
of tuberculosis, after pregnancy, to
mineral starvation. The foetus acts
as a mineral parasite, robbing the
mother's tissues unless her food sup
plies its needs.
Caerny declares that natural immu
nity depends on nutrition and that one
sided nutrition with sugars, syrups and
candles destroys this immunity in chil
dren.
Weigart reports that "tuberculosis
children succumb more quickly when
nourished with sugars and starches.
The water contents of the organism is
inversely proportioned to the natural
immunity. Carbohydrate diet increases
unnecessarily the amount of water in
the tissues and prompts a rapid rise
in the body weight.
Such children who appear plump,
round and well nourished, are water
logged and show slight resisting power
against infection."
Various investigators have found
that demlneralized sweets, sugar, glu
close, etc.. give rise to many disor
ders. Why do they exclude diabetes
from the list of these disorders when
the chief symptom of diabeter lies in
Its rebellion against sugar, particu
larly its • rebellion against glucose?

He says, in other words, that if a
j temporary glycosuria can be induced
|by an excessive ingestion of refined <
j starchy or sugary foods and such ex- J
loess is contained until the temporary l
j glycosuria becomes permanent, the net
result of such excess is diabetes.
He also declares that glucose com- i
bines with certain acids and bases, as
j potash and lime, forming glycosates
jor saccharates. and in alkaline solu- ;
: tion has a great tendency to absorb j
I oxygen.
He also makes the significant asser
tion that in diabetes less oxygen is 1
absorbed than in health.
If glucose- is a confiscator of oxy- 1
gen and if it is observed in diabetes
that .less oxygen Is absorbed than in 1
health, is it not indeed time that the
role of glucose as an oxygen pirate
;be investigated?
The pancreas in health appropriates
the salts of lime and potash in the 5
; elaboration of its normal alkaline se
cretions, as is shown in the analyses
of these secretions.
| What scientist will say that this
1 selective action of the pancreas on I
j these alkaline bases is devoid of sig
nificance or that the normal func- j
itioning of the pancreas does not de
pend in any manner upon its ability
to make use of them?
Yet in the presence of the fact that ,
glucose has an affinity for these alka- j
line bases and combines with them.
I thereby interfering with their ability
ito conduct themselves in the tissues
and internal secretions in accordance
with nature's laws, who will say that j
j the excessive ingestion of glucose, in 1
j strict obedience to its affinity for alka-j
| line bases, does not rob the pancreas
|of lime and potassium salts by com- j
j bining with them and carrying them
off?
I If deprived of lime and potassium
| in this manner, does not the pancreas I
suffer an impairment of its ability to)
assist in the control of the upper limit (
iof the blood content of glucose?
Kleiner and Meltzer of the Rocke- 1
' feller Institute assume (they use the I
| word assume) that it is the failure of
I the pancreas to perform its function
which causes diabetes.
! But what causes that failure?
There is much evidence to support
the belief that refined, demlneralized j
starches and sugars, of which glucose I
is the most conspicuous type, induce I
I this failure, first by weakening the j
ability of the pancreas to resist the
excess glucose assault and, second, by
l permitting the entrance of glucose in- !
to the blood without hindrance after j
the glucose bombardment has succeed- J
|ed in breaking down the natural bar- |
rlers against it.
| The experiments of Kleiner and
I Meltzer, indicating that in health the;
| circulation can utilize only a fixed '
, quantity of glucose—o.l per cent.— |
beyond which the healthy or normal I
pancreas appears to say, "Xo more
| shall enter," support the conclusion, !
although not intended to do so, that
it is the excess of glucose and the
j excess of other refined and demin- j
eralized starches and sugars which |
causes a temporary glycosuria to be
1 superseded by a permanent diabetes,

Every morning the girl gets up early
and goes to work leaving her three
able-bodied brothers calmly snoring, J
secure that when they choose to arise, I
along toward noon, mother will have 1
some special dainty prepared for them.
And mother thinks that this is all
right. She makes a thousand excuses
for their idleness, and considers that!
her daughter Is very mean and hard I
hearted when she objects to support
ing a bunch of idlers and would liko
some of the money that she earns
to spend upon herself.
And the girl is helpless because she
wants to take care of her mother and
she can't take care of mother without i
mother supporting her good-for-noth- I
ing sons.
Of course this girl, and every other
woman who supports a strong and,
healthy man is an easy mark that the
fool killer will assuredly get some day.
She gets neither thanks nor ha'pence,

Girl Will Really Aid Brothers by Re- 1
fusing to Support Tcm
Therefore, I would advise this young ;
woman and every one confronted with j
the same problem to simply shut their ,
doors on their loafing brothers, and
force them to go to work. In that way ,
they will not only rid themselves of a,
burden that they are under no obliga-1
tion to bear, but will do the one thing
that is possible to make a self-respect
ing and decent man out of an idler.
Laziness is a disease that requires
heroic remedies to cure, and the best
antidote for it ever devised is simply
Ito chuck a man out into the world |
where he must either work or starve.,
Hunger has done more to allay that!
tired feeling with which so many men !
are born than any other one thing in I
the world.
As long as a loafer knows that he's I
got a warm place to sit, a good bed to j
sleep in and three square meals a day !
to eat he isn't going to wear himself \
out looking for work, and he's going!
to be mighty particular about the sort j
of a job he takes. But if he knows I
that only his own labor stands between j
him and want, he'll get right down to j
the real pursuit of a job, and in work I
he'll find the independence that makes
him a man.

by her mother to support her three
; lazy brothers is not an isolated one. I
have known many other such ones
myself and I get hundreds of letters
: from other working girls telling exact
i ly the same complaint. They love their
; mothers, they feel a high Bense of
| duty and desire to divide their earn
' ings with their parents, but they feel
it a hardship that they have to sup
port brothers far more able to work
than they are.
These girls are right. It Is most
J cruelly unjust that their mothers
should rob them of their hard earned
1 wages to give the money to trifling
and often drunken sons, and the girls
should have the courage to rebel and
refuse to submit to such treatment.
The one who earns the money that
! supports home is in law the head of
lit, and the girl who pays the bills has
a right to say who shall live in that
home and eat of the food that she
] buys. Certainly no sister is under any
