S CATNAPS MOST CREDIT FITNESS | - SPEND HIMSELF Wants to Apply it on Bills Con-; tracted in Rate Case, Says ; Johnson Declaring he did not want any of the “Lemke fund” for his"own “use, Attorney-General Johnson declared he was quite willing to let an order be entered placing the money in .the hands of the state treasurer to be ex- pended for the purpose for which it was given. | - The fund Was raised to be used in fighting the railroad rate cases start- ed by Attorney-General Lemke. There is a balance of about $3,600 in the fund. There are bills for about $2,500 now unpaid.for expenses in- curred in the case and probably $3,000 more to come in. “I do not want any of this money,” said Attorney-General Sveinbjorn . Johnson, when asked concerning fu-\ ture action to obiain the fund. bal- ance, “I want it to be applied to’ pay- ing expertses of the railroad rate case ot my. Lemke—the purpose for which the money was contributed. The money, the attorney-general Kays, was given for the speciiic pur- pose of paying for the railroad rate case fight, it being alleged’ by Mr. Lemke that there were not sufficient funds with which to fight the case. ‘However, there are now unpaid bills amounting ‘to $2,500. and bills yet to be submitted’ in the railroad rate case ‘probably will exceed $3,000. The last bill was submitted by Karl Knox Gartner, employed by Mr. Lemke, on December 28. The “Lemke fund” bal- ance will be insufficient to pay the entire expense of the case, and doubt- less Mr. Johnson will have to advance money from his department fund even if all the “Lemke fund” is turned over for the purpose for which it was «created. Mr, Johnson said that if thére was any belief upon‘the part of Mr. Cathro that he desired the fund for his own use or his department’s use he was quite willing to submit the entire mat- ter of the fund, of Mr, Cathro’s taking the fund from the Bank of North Da- kota and any other matters concern- ing it to the courts.

Following is what Lynn. Fontanne gave as her recipe for beauty. Others. will tell their“beauty: secrets in stories to fol- low. BY LYNN FONTANNE English Actress, Leading Woman in “Dulcye” at the Frazee Theater A little cold cream at night, an eye cup with lotion inthe morning, 2 short walk and plenty to eat three times a day. This of course only for the sfénder to lose flesh or keep a figure down. If you're slender cold cream is a necessity. It supplies the oil which the slim woman’s skin lacks and this keeps away the wrinkles. Cold cream,\ only a litile, at night and lightly pat- ted on. Never a heavy touch for a thing as sensitive as the skin! Eyes Must Be Washed Byes—if they are to be luminous and lovely—must be washed quite_as the hair and hands.

But there must be a very great deal of ‘understanding about this putting on of nouge. Wo- menjdepend too much upon sticks and puffs, and: too little upon their own finger tips.
