IN THE WINGS.

'"The County Fair" was presented before a
St Paul audience for the first time last even
ing. The Metropolitan was unusually well
filed with good audience-an audience that
appreciated pathos as we'll humor and un-
derstood the uses and abuses of applause.
THE County Fair is good example of the
modern rural drama, with enough plot and
action to make i: interesting. The characters
are conveniently blind now and then to
things they would most certainly see in real
life, but in the main the play is very natural.
+ The horse race in the last act, albeit the
horses are not quite thoroughbred runners,
in appearance is one of the best managed
and exciting bits of realism on the stage. 1t
is wonderfully well done, and rouses the
audience to the highest pitch of excitement
The stage effects throughout are excellent
the corn-husking scene especially. The quar-
tette is not the eye-sore that sort of thing Is
apt to be- and the barn dance is delightfully."-
funny. The cast is uniformly admirable.
". H. Burton, as Otis Tucker. is as good
naturedly stupid as one could expect
His business i'll the first act is especially
good. Edward McWade, as Tim the Tanner
is consistent throughout His second act is
Unexpectedly strong. The Joel Bartlett of
G F. Helrick is handsome and boyish, but
just trle stacey. The Abigail Prue OF
v,
prim and practical, but far from prudish. In
fact, her lavish display of somewhat unusual
undergarments might very well be dispensed
with. She is very funny and never oyerdoes
her comedy. Margaret May as Taggs is a lit
tie too refined for the part. She is light
footed and graceful, and makes a rather un-
pleasant part very pleasant. Ella Salisbury
is very good, indeed, as Sally Greenway Her
, voice and face are both sweet, and her act
ing girlishly natural Wallace 1. Shaw plays
conventional Solon Hammerhead. The
play is one Of the most entertaining ever
played at the Metropolitan and bids fair TO
be as great success in ST. Paul as il has
been in Chicago and New York 1.-THE
County Fair will be played all the week,
with matinees Wednesday and Saturday.

THE GERANLS
How This Universal Window Plant May

of training the plants is desirable, we

developed plant is the highest form Of
cultivation, and the highest test of the
growers art. What deformities lone
often sees in long legged plants with q
tuft of leaves at the top of naked stemsl
Can it be possible that those who care
enough for plants to tend and water
them, can see any beauty in such speci-
mems? Or have they an eye only for the
few poor flowers that such plants pro-
duce? AS has been already noticed,
plants grown to produce a certain effect,
such as their appearance from the outside
of a window, or as q mass in a bed, need
but have little attention given to their
as individuals, but when
we want handsome plant, for the
plants own beauty, then we must attend
to its growth from its earliest to its lat
est stages. As soon as the young plant
enters upon vigorous growth, the for
nation of branches should be under
taken and kept under control, and not
be left to accident.
A little experience in pinching the
ends of growing shoots, and thus check
ing them and causing them to push out
new branches, will show any one how
this matter may be kept IN
Ter control, and how we have the max
ing of the plant in our own hands. The
beauty of the plant depends upon a well
skeleton of branches, and this
We can regulate and shape. 1t requires

The State Printing.

Paola Spirit: Notwithstanding
that the senate was republican, the
house of the Kansas legislature had it
in their power to reduce the outrageous
and extraVagant appropriation for state
printing. In fact from partisan mo-
tives, the senate actually tried to cut
down the appropriation away below
what it had been, doubtless. because
the state printer-elect was not one of
their own party at the time. But the
peoples party majority in the house
having elected one of their own poll.
tieians, E. H. Snow, to this fat Office,
decided to increase the appropriation
rather than reduce it. This, too, was
done in the face of all the pledges in
favor of retrenchment and reform.
The appropriations made for state
printing are as follows: 1891. $3.50. 900,
and 1892, $4,000: total, 100000.
These are the actual figures certified to
by the auditor of state. That the sum
is 100000 too much can easily be shown
by comparison with the amounts paid
for state printing by other states.
Missouri, a richer and more pOpulOus
state, appropriated $4,000 to pay for
state printing for the years 1891 and
1892 ana S36, 900 to cover deficiencies in
this fund making in all SllS.OO0 In
1889 and 1890 the cost of public printing
paid by the state of Missouri was SPA
OS9.32. These figures are from the Of
fetal report of the state auditor.

an average OF S51. 800 a year which

finished off with eopenwork edging are
another charming novelty. Some dresses
are sort of canvas or ecru batiste, with

handle, with the straws lightly leaning
against the wall; or, better still, piercs

handle with red hot nail, run a strong
string through the hole and tie it in
loop to hang the broom up by.
Then see that the broom is ALWAYS
hung up clear of the floor when it is put

If, after a time, the broom begins to
grow brittle again, subject it to the same
treatment as at first, and it will again
become pliable Or it is good plan te
put the broom into the hot suds in the
boiler on washing day. after the clothes
are removed, and leave it few moments
to soak; then shake it out thoroughly,
and stand it up to dry. This will not
only render the straws more pliable, but
will cleanse the broom from lint or other
dirt in the inside of it.
To restore worn broom Gig y, soak
it thoroughly in scalding water, and be
sure that every straw is well scalded:
then shake out the broom, and while il
is wet bend it in its proper form, so that
all the straws will lie straight and even.
This done, fasten a cloth band around
the broom to keep it in shape until it
has completely dried Gig. q. Next re-
move the band, and with large pair OK
scissors clip the long uneven straws on
the edge, and you will be surprised at
the improved appearance of the broom

ried out, brooms will wear better, last
longer, sweep cleaner, and in every way
prove far more satisfactory.
