EDITOR GREAT WEST:
In looking over the last Annual
Report made by M. D. Kenyon, Pub
lie Examiner of this state, there will
be found at the commencement there
of a synopsis OF the law under which
he is required to (but we fear does
not) act.
Section of the act given therein
says: "The examiner under this act
shall in like manner, and with like
authority, visit, without prior notice,
each of the banking, savings, ano
other moneyed institutions
and thoroughly examine into theil
affairs and ascertain their financial
condition at least once in each year
1t shall be his duty to carefully in
spect and verify the validity an1
amount of the securities and assets
held by such Institutions. 4
He shall inquire into and report anv
neglect or infringement OF the laws
covering such banking, moneyed, and
savings institutions. H
shall forthwith report the condition
of such corporation, so ascertained,
to the Governor, together with his
recommendations or suggestions. A.
\ AS to the wording OF this act
there can be no question.

act apply, with equal force, to all

Scissors.

One needs many pairs OF scissors and
true economy consists In having a pair
for each sort OF work. The cutting Of
paper Is very trying to sharpened steel,
and pair might be kept for that purpose.
Long slender shears are handy for gen.
eral use; buttonhole scissors could find O
place In every basket; pair OF scissors
for trimming lamps In the kitchen is nee
essary where there is no gas; grape sells
sors for the table are not altogether new !;
scissors to cut flowers In the country are
a convenience.
Few people carry pocket scissors OF the
folding sort. Those that do never part
with them. Convenient for manicure use,
to cut clipping from a paper at mo-
ments notice. a string, etc. they answer
almost every purpose OF the pocket knife
and are much more convenient to handle.
Give person accustomed to their use
knife and the pocket scissors and he will
part with the former fret. No cutting
blade should be put In the fire. as It will
then lose Its temper. which Is denoted by it's
turning blue. Such knife or blade will
never keep its edge.-Hardware.

The Bear Thought First.

There was a certain farmer, we are told,
who had fine orchard OF apple trees.
The orchard was half a mile from his
house, with thick growth Of woods be-
tween.
One day the farmer said to his two
hired men:
81 think those apples must be about
ripe, boys, and we will go out tomorrow
and gather them. Get all the barrels and
baskets you can find, and be ready to
start early"
This was good idea OF the farmers.
and IL IL had not been for one thing he
would have had a splendid crop OF apples.
This was the thing:
Three days before an old bear who lived
In the neighborhood said to her husband
and her three children:
There is a splendid apple orchard near
here, and think the apples are about
ripe. Let us get up early tomorrow
morning, and within the next few days
we can eat our fill and carry home all the
apples we want for our winter useY
You see 1t was just little unfortunate
that the farmer did not happen to think
first. And this Is the thought that
occurred to him when he went and looked
at tho orchard next morning.

OF the best deodorizers which we have.
1t should be simply ground. and passed

placed. Burned cotton or cotton rags are
also valuable for this purpose. Aromatic
vinegar or camphor are both excellent de-
odorizers, and may be sprinkled freely in

who use cologne water, sprinkling 1t free

mizer. is very commendable, as 1t proves
grateful and refreshing to patient.-N.
