The Idea Is aitnptjf preposterous, yet kitchen wall are left for months sometimes for years without cleansing. I In the first place the kitchen wall should have a light tint that the meri est fleck of dirt can be seen; that th sheerest cobweb can be brushe4 away; that the tiniest water bug can be discerned.

Glue walls made from horses' hoofs colored up with cheap colorings do not Indicate good housekeeping.

The glue Is constantly flecking off. falling into the food and the Idea of food flavored with glue made from horsea' hoofs la not appetising. Kitchen walls to bo thoroughly aat-isfactory should be alabastlned the same as every other wall in the house. They should be coated regularly In the spring and fall of each year with a light tint. The care of the pantry require! constant attention.

The walla should be brushed over every year, the djshes removed from the shelves which should be thoroughly wiped With hot water.

8HE COULD NOT WALK For Months Burning Humor on Anklet Opiates Alone Brought 8leep Eczsma Yielded to Cutlcura. "I had eczema for over two years. I had two physicians, but they only gave me relief for a short time and I cannot enumerate the ointments and lotions I used to no purpose. My ankles were one mass of sores. The Itching and burning were so Intense that I could not sleep.

I could not walk for nearly four months. One day my husband said I had better try the Cutlcura Remedies. After using them three times I had the best night's rest in months unless I took an opiate. I used one set of Cutlcura Soap, Ointment, and Pills, and my ankles healed In a short time. It Is now a year since I used Cutlcura, and there has been nc return of the eczema.

MAKE JOURNEY ON SLEDS Riotous Crowds Congregate on the Streets and Capture Non-Union Men as They Arrive. Washington. By direction of the president.

Acting Secretary Oliver Thursday ordered a company of Infantry from Fort Gibbon, In Alaska, to Fairbanks, in that territory, to preserve order during the mining strike In that section. This action was taken upon representation from the United States court in Alaska to the attorney general that the presence of federal troops was needed. Telegrams from Fairbanks to the attorney general claim that open air mass meetings are being held by the striking miners and that threats of violence have been made. The marshal has been directed by the attorney general to use all the force at his command to arrest lawbreakers and to prevent intimidation. The military is expected to give the marshal moral support and also to take action should the disorder prove too great for any force he may be able to secure.

The distance from Fort Gibbon to Fairbanks is 155 miles and the troop will be carried by sleds over that route, which is said to be a very good one. If there is urgent necessity for the presence of the soldiers at Fair banks they can get there in four or five days, but under ordinary conditions the trip takes six or seven days Fairbanks is in the center of a nilniti country with a population of 7,000 or 8,000. Persons In Washington familiar with the conditions existing at Fair banks say the trouble is the outcome of a strike a year or more ago for higher wages and shorter hours for the miners.

Exquisite French Lingerie Employed In Empire Piece with Novel Sleeves Touches That Give Quaint and Picturesque Air. At this season of the year women's minds dwell on dainty lingerie and the splendid offerings that are to be found In the shops.

It Is the time when slightly worn or passe wardrobes are replenished for the spring. Among the many nightgown models A New Nightgown. found in the exquisite French lingerie sent over here Is an empire piece provided with novel sleerves. The garment is a mass of Valenciennes entre HOW TO BONE A COLLAR. Framework of Whalebone Will Give Best Results.

Bones play an important part In dress-making nowaday, and especially in waists, girdles and collars. As the collars must be high now, it Is necessary to bone them to make them stand up. The collars of the lingerie waists and of all dressy waists are higher just behind the ear, where they slope upward slightly. Featherbone Is largely used, and it Is easy to handle, as it requires no covering except at the ends. Stitches may be taken through it at any point, and last but not least, it is inexpensive.

The best and cleverest way to bone a collar is to cut the whalebone into the proper lengths for collar supports. Five pieces of bone are necessary for the average collar, two for under the chin, which should be about two or 2Vi Inches apart at the base of the collar and slant until they are an inch farther apart at the top of the collar. These two bones are about half an inch shorter than the two which should be put underneath and a little behind the ear. The collar must be tied on to determine the proper position for these. The fifth bone Is the same height as the two front bones, and is to be put in the middle of the back of the collar.

These bones are not to be sewed directly to the collar, but are to be sewed to a little framework collar made of tapes. A piece of tape which Just fits comfortably but snugly around the base of the neck forms the bot-1 torn of the framework, and for the top a piece of tape which Is a trifle larger than Is necessary for comfort is chosen. These pieces of tape are Joined together by six pieces of tape. Two In the front in exactly the same position which the featherbone is to occupy, and two under the ears and two at each end. These six pieces should be made of two pieces of tape to form pockets, and into these pockets the featherbone Is slipped.

One side of the back requires no featherbone, though this may be used If desired, for it will remain upright when fastened to the other side of the EVENING GOWNS OF VELVET. Regal Effects Produced When Deco rated with Paillettes. When the soft rich velvets of the sea son are decorated with paillettes the effect is regally beautiful. The last word In elegance is expressed in a model for a prominent French woman of fashion. Dark Russian green chiffon velvet is used, sprinkled over with paillettes and trimmed with deepr bands of embroidered face cloth.

The skirt of plain panne is finished at the bottom with a border of embroidered cloth, and over it Is draped a princess tunic of the paillette velvet, fitting the figure exquisitely on the bodice and much embroidered thereabouts. The decolletage is marked by em broidered cloth and a handsome fringe edges the drapery that turns away from the neck and falls over the arms, which are guilUess of sleeves. The tunc! is bordered with embroidery and above this is another rich design of FOR THE STOUT WOMAN. Nine or Twelve-Gored Model the Best for-the Skirtj. It seems that persons who design fashions consider none except those who are slender and young, with sug gestions few and far between for the elderly woman and scarcely any for the stout woman.

A skirt which Is being made for a stout woman should be a nine or twelve gored model. JV person of extreme stoutness should choose a pattern with even more gores, in order to make the skirt fit with perfect flatness about the hips. As it Is impossible for a stout woman to look well In the hipleas fashions, she may as well accept her fate and dress as becomingly as she can. A sktrt which springs out Into fullness 'jelow the hip line Is certain ly more becoming than one which fits snugly below the hips. The skirt is the only garment where lines of suf ficient length can be given to obtain graceful proportions.

Many women make the great mis take of sacrificing the "length of line" INJURE TWO IN ROBBERY. Thieves Secure $50 After Rendering One of the Women Unconscious. Trlppvll. -A bold assault sad robbery took place here the other morn-Ing. Thoraa.

Despite the fact that the last show of the Manitowoc Poultry and Pigeon Fanciers association ran behind, the members decided to feotf another annual show next year.

Madison. In making the first annual report of his department, filed with the governor. State Fire Marshal T. M. Purtell recommends that the legislature pass a law limiting the amount of fire insurance that can be writtenNon buildings and thus remove one of the chief temptations to in cendiarlsin.

The marshal believes that allowing an agent to write excessiv Insurance on buildings is placing premium on criminal acts. The report covers the period from August 4, 1907, to January 1, 1908 During that time the total nunmber of fires In the. state was 790, with a total property loss of $2,803,748. The largest loss sustained In any one county was In Douglas, owing to the large elevator fire, the amount being $1,688,924. The next largest was In Milwaukee county where the loss was $284,760.

The largest number of buildings af fected In any one class was dwellings, with 311. The next largest number was barns, with 186 affected. In con nection with the loss on dwellings the report calls attention to the fact that the largest number of fires were caused by defective heating' appa ratuses, and property owners are urged to use care In looking after the con dltion of flues. In the case of barns it is shown that out of the 186 fires 69 were caused by lightning. An In quiry to the insurance companies shows almost a unanimous sentiment In favor of the lightning rod.

Attention Is called to the fact that legislation Is pending In several states against he manufacture and sale of the "sna match, and in favor of the safety match. The report show that there have been 215 orders Issued by the department directing the cor rection of dangerous conditions. There have been 123 cases investigated by the department, two people have been sent to the state reformatory, two to state asylums, knd 12 bound over to the circuit court. The report snows that the total re ceipts of the marshal's department for the five months in question was $18 454.83, and the total disbursements 7,438.18, leaving a. balance of $11 361.75.

The receipts come principally from the fire insurance companies which are required to pay a certain percentage of tpeir premiums in the state to maintain the department. Soo Road Beats State. Judge E. Ray Stevens of the circuit court overruled a motion by the state to quash a writ of mandamus secured by the Soo Railroad company to com pel the railroad commission to grant it authority to issue $4,000,000 of add! tional stock. The commission refused to grant the desired authority because the railroad had not filed an amend ment to its articles of incorporation showing the action of the stockholders In deciding to issue the new stock.

The fee for filing such an amendment would be $21,000. Judge Stevens holds mat a railroad company is not re quired to file an apendment showing its authority to issue additional stock This law, the court says, applies only to other corporations. The state will appeal to the supreme court. The ruling of the lower court is interesting In view of the fact that the Chicago Northwestern recently paid a fee of $110,010 and the Chicago, Milwaukee St. Paul one of $175,020 for filing amendments to their articles of incor poration.

If the supreme court de clares that the law does not require railroads to pay such fees these two companies will have to appeal to the legislature to get their money back, aa they did not pay under protest Other railroad companies have also paid such fees, and will reclaim them the decision of the lower court is up held. Insurance Fees Bigger. Within the present month the Are insurance companies operating within the state will have filed their annual statements, and from present indica tions the fees will have Increased from $164,000 last year, to over $200,000 Barring the losses sustained by. the companies in the San Francisco dis aster, the reports at present indicate that the losses in the state during the last year were less than the year be iore. i Scribes at Menomonie.

The Wisconsin Press association has accepted an invitation to hold its annual convention at Menomonie, March 10 and 11 has been suggested 'or the convention, and it is probable that the association will agree to these dates.

Bashford has retired as professor of law after 14 years of continuous service! He is one of the first graduates of the law school, and during the year 1883 acted as profes sor of law. In 1894 he again joined the, faculty of the law school, and has been connected with the institution ever since. Until recently several of the judges of the supreme court also taught in the law school, but the un usual rush of cases now before the tribunal makes this impossible. Cassoday Will Probated. In the Dane county court the will of the last Chief Justice J.

B. Cassoday of the supreme court of Wisconsin was admitted to probate. The estate is valued at $30,000 of which $20,000 is represented by real estate. The will distributes the property, except the library, among the five surviving children, share and share alike. The law library is given to Attorney Eldon Cassoday of Chicago, a son, and the rest of the books are distributed among relatives and the Wisconsin State Historical society.

Want County Government. The project of establishing a new county, comprising only the city of Superior and to be called Superior county. Is being discussed extensively. The plan is to add 24 townships to the city of Superior, and allow the towns that now exist to go it alone under the name of Douglas county with the county seat at Lake Nebagamon, Haw thorne, Solon Springs, Brule or some other of the towns in the country. Some of the agitation is the outgrowth of the creation of new towns in the State Democrats In Session.

I The Wisconsin state Democratic convention was held in Milwaukee. Candidates, delegates, politicians and Interested persons from every section of the state Journeyed to the Badger metropolis for the session and the hotels and rooming houses were filled to overflowing for several days. Before the session the northern and northwestern part of the state had no candidate for delegate-at-largo and some Democrats insisted that great territory ought to have representation. From the talk heard it looked probable that a candidate from there would receive good support. The intimation that Chairman Manson might, under certain conditions, be left oft the delegation, had little foundation.

It was known that even in delegations which had boon claimed as solid for some candidates for delegates-at-large many of the delegation were for him and his friends had no fear. Little was heard about district delegates. These local ambitions did not come to the surface until the delegates to the state convention arrived. Secretary Braw-ley early completed the preliminary work of preparing for the convention. State central committee headquarters were established at room 121, the Plankinton.

Maxey of Wash burn as president, and Editor Maloney of Ladysmith as secretary, is having hard work getting started, and It looks now as if the association would go to pieces.

At the time the associ ation was organized it was decided that each county in that part of the state should pay $250 into the main association, but definite steps in this direction have been taken by only about four counties in the northern half of the state. In view of the fact that a number of counties were not coming up with appropriations, the county board of Bayfield county passed resolutions a few weeks ago instructing their officials not to pay their $250 Into the association until the other counties in this vicinity had done so. The ashland authorities have also been holding back for some time in making their payment for the same reason. List of County's Expenditure. While the total assessed valuation of Milwaukee county is $258,709,489.95, its bonded Indebtedness Is only 000.

A very pretty little ornament for the dressing table and one. moreover, which need cost next to nothing, may be seon in our sketch.

It is a combined ring-stand and pin-cushion, made out of one of those little brown cream Jugs which are always so decorative and which are practically of no use when once they are empty. A velvet or silk pin-cushion can easily be fittod into the top of the jug, and ribbon bows in some bright color should be tied round its neck. A little tree twig should be fastened into the center of the cushion and will serve as a ring stand. This twig might be covered with gold paint, or be painted some color to harmonize with the shade chosen for the cushion and the ribbon bows. It should be fixed by a few drops of mucilage on the end that penetrates the cushion.
