CH1cAeo is not the only town tina

CHICAGO is not the only town that
suffers from the mistaken zeal or OFF,
ciousness of policemen. At lola,
Kan, they have town marshal who
is given to infringing upon the most
sacred rights of American citizenship.
But his last exploit Is likely to 6Sst
him dear. He intruded upon poker
game for the purpose of arresting one
OF the players, who was charged with
stealing a horse. The accused per-
son has demonstrated his innocence
and now brings suit against the Mar
shall to recover the value Of large
jack pot which was under discussion
when the arrest was made. The
quondam prisoner alleges that he
held an ace full-whatever that is

and that but FOR lis arrest he would

should be reimbursed for the loss he

Not Above Criticism.

Il don't take any great account of
the proverbs and axioms and such
that's printed in the magazines now
adays," remarked Mrs Philander
Peasely to her husband, as she laid
down the last number of a monthly
publication. "I've been a-studying
over volume of 'em that some man
has writ here and L wonder that
folksll publish such stuff! You can
make 'em mean one thing or moth
ing, just according as you see fit.
Now here's one Of 'em: 1T is as I'M
fortunit' to seize the wrong chance to
do or say q thing as it's to let the

"Now, I'd like to be told how folks

there amt any two ways OF taking
'em and getting misled.
"'Make hay while the sun shines.

like to know? There amt one OF

round to mean anything body
pleases."
"Do you recall one about "a thing

'tis?'" inquired Capt. Peasely, ir
his usual shrill quaver.

wife, promptly, land many's the time

--'-t Interior IL Elegant
New York correspondence,
This is the most charming cottage
we have ever seen, and a great many
people have said this; 1t is a model
six-foom cottage. Contains all the
modern improvements and conven-
fences, at moderate price.
The underpinning is laid with red
brick Of even color, and trimmed
with bands OF black brick and tile.
These brick are laid In red and black
mortar. 1t will also be seen that the
underpinning extends up to the first
story window sill and the window sill
and water table are one, which Ia
thought by some to be an odd feature.

exists. 1t requires nice and culti-
waited eye to determine the co.ors
most appropriate and effective for
the exterior of house, and depends
entirely on its size, form, style, etc.
A good design may be entirely spoiled
by the cO,ors used in painting, and
the beauty OF the landscape is often
'rlarred by a white house with green
blinds. This cottage Is painted an
olive-green, the trimmings being
darker than the ground work, and
the chamfers and sunk work are
picked out in bright red; the sashes
are painted dark yellow, giving the
Whole most striking and effective
appearance. A builder was incredu-
lous when told the interior wood
work was pine.
1t Is the cottage par excellence,
and possesses beauty far beyond the
houses generally seen belonging to
persons much higher In the social
scale, and has been coveted by those
who could purchase 1T fifty times
over. The whole of the work and
materials are first class In every re-
spect. Cost, So, 275.
A house of effective design and
convenient and artistic interior
will add, independently Of its COST,
to the value OF the property which
surrounds 1t, and is often what
secures the purchaser. And 1t is
the same with houses TO rent. We
have known houses of thNsame cost
to have q difference Ia rental of so
per cent, simply because one was
built without regard to taste, COM
fort, and convenience, and the other
thoroughly designed A thing OF
beauty is a JOY forever.

Washing the Hands.

According to a German physician,
the art or washing the hands is not
an easy one. To insure absolute
cleanliness the hands must be first
carefully washed with potash, soap,
and water, and then with 5-per-
cent. solution of carbolic acid, or one
per !, 600 solution OF corrosive sub
Innate or chlorine water. When the
finger nails are dry and break easily,
vaseline rubbed on after washing the
hands will do world OF good. Mani
cures first battle the hand long
time In hot water, then with scissors
and knives clean and cut the nails,
remove the superfluous skin about
the onyx, then polish the nails with
buckskin and fine powder, washing
the hand again in hot water with
soap. After drying, the nails are
polished with a fine brush and are
finally rubbed with rosy unguent
to give them a shell pink.

these views. But in his calculations
for annexation he never supposed nor was 1t
expected by the friends of annexation, that
it would be by revolution but through ne
gotiation and with the assent of the queen
on tho lines of the treaty OF 1904 He kept
his own council and no one but this govern

came, however, he saw that protecto-
rate was Indispensable. The Japanese
and British were both believed to be
making overtures for an alliance with the
native population. He feared anarchy and
that the British and japanese agents would
insist upon the same right of dealing with

After the protectorate was declared he un-
derstood, as did everyone else, that the
