How to Insert Sore yys in Plaster
f, t.tE Walls. f s..f 81

The following note on this subject
was originally published by US, and has
lately been going the rounds of the
press. 1t is worth reproducing, for it
is often desirable to insert. screws in
plastered walls without attaching them
to any woodwork, but when we turn
them in, the plaster gives way and our
effort is vain, And yet q screw may be
inserted in plaster so as to hold light
pictures &c, very firmly. The best plan
is to enlarge the hole to about twice the
diameter of the screw, moisten the
edges Of the hole thoroughly with wa
ter, and fill it with plaster of Paris, ,sucl
as is used for, fastening tie tops o.
lamps, &c, AMI bed the screw in thu
soft plaster. When the plaster has set
the screw will7be held very strongly.

EF Henry B andy, Esq, the largest
manufacturer of Zanesville, and one of
the leading and wealthiest citizens of
that city, has for'years been the leading
and most influential Republican in Mus.

another prominent Republican Of the
same city, was State Senator several
years ago from the aMuskingumsP Perry
