CONCERNING THE ELECTRIC
The bids for the grading and con-
struction of "a pile bridge over north
Mill creek were opened q few days
ago, but ne action has been taken
in the matter, owing to the fact that
the bids were not satisfactory. They
were all considerable higher than
the estimates furnished Mr.. Theil-
son, who surveyed the road. The
company have about decided to
begin work with their own foreman
and not look to contractors. Their
plan is to employ SOME conn etent
man to superintend the work with
the managers having general su-
peryision of the entire road.

The neatest way tc make homo
dress intended for actual service in the
kitchen is, according to my idea, this;
A well-fitting tight waist and full skirt
the latter sewed to the waist by
welting cord, and finished with hem
five or six inches deep, according to the
height of the wearer. Made in this
way, they are very easily laundered,
and no one need have an excuse for APP
pearing in a soiled dress at home, even
though obliged to do her own washing
and ironing In starching these navy
blue dresses put plenty of blue in the
starch, and also add one tablespoonful
of salt to every gallon of boiled starch
