BLANKET COVER,

times very elegant, being often made of
the richest Of plushes, reps or brocades
Simpler spreads are of white figured dam
ask, or Of beautiful blankets, woven In
floral or conventionalized designs in two
oolors, as pink and white, blue and gray.
These delicate blankets are protected by
white linen covers which line one side
completely and are turned over upon the
upper side for six inches, where they are fas-
tened in place by small buttons. A wide
border of lace, usually crooheted in de-
sign of deep points, edges the linen and is
caught down with invisible stitches, thus
making very pretty and attractive cover.
The decoration of the pillowslips de-
serves especial mention. They are usually
beautifully embroidered with large CEN
tral monogram, while the edges are
wrought in scallops in closely stuffed but
tonhole stitch. Two and half inches
from the edge of this scallop the pillow
case is stitched with two or three rows Of
fine stitching, and when stiff1y starched
these pillows present very handsome ap-
pearaiice.

Burn the Rubbish.

If the habit were formed of burning all
the oombustible household dirt and all
rubbish of the back yard, our premises
would be much cleaner and more pleasing
to the eye. Old rags, paper, bones, dilap-
idated barrels, pails tubs and other organ
10 material collect, and by becoming wet
decay and form refuge for disease germs,
to say nothing of worms, rats, mice and
other vermin. The household dirt swept
out at the back door Is blown In again by
the next gust of wind from that direction.
A green, nicely kept lawn, both back and
front of house, win do much Co keep the
house and basement clean. The short, fine,
thick grass, especially If kept moist and
growing, viii entangle the street dirt and
keep 1t from entering the dwelling.

WILL BE OPEN A YEAR
MExlco's GREAT EXHIBITION TO BE
A WONDERFUL SHOW, THEY SAY.

Its Foreign Department Is In the Hands
Of the vicomte De Cornely Of Midwin-
ter Fair Fame-Glories Of the Mexican
Building.
OF Vioomte Rene De Cornely, director
Of the foreign department Of the Mexican
worlds fair, whose doors will be opened
on April next, Il was said by M. II. De
Young of San Francisco year or two ago
that he was without peer rs promoter
and originator Of exposition ideas" De
Young made this statement when Cornely
was engaged upon the San Francisco Mid
winter fair, and judging by the success Of
that show and the degree OF publicity al
ready secured for the approaching Mexican
one there was good reason for the journal
lists praise 1t was to Cornely's energy,
enthusiasm and fertility of ideas that the
Californian exhibition owed not only its
success, but its very existence, and 1t was
Cornely, too who proposed the fair at the
City of Mexico, and who succeeded In in
teresting Porflrio Diaz, president Of the
southern republic, without whose backing
the enterprise could not have been success
fully launched.
1t is upon the work of Cornely, as chief
of the foreign department, that the show
will depend for its recognition by other
governments and a generous amount OF
patronage by foreign exhibitors, since, al
though the Mexican management Of the
exposition has been placed in the hands Of
an Incorporated company OF which 1gna-
clio Bejarano is director general, the entire
management outside of Mexico rests with
Cornely. 1t may seem strange that so i'm
portant a part of the enterprise should be
intrusted to any one but a Mexican, but
Cornely is especially well qualified to at
tend TO this part. His experience as an
exposition promoter has been very exten-

JOSEPH MAUDRU DEAD.
Stark County's Ex-Treasurer
Dies Sunday Night
at Toledo.

The sad news of the death of ex-county
treasurer Joseph Maudru reached Canton this
morning. Five weeks ago Mr.. Maudru went to,
Toledo to take treatment at st. Vincent hos
pital After being there two weeks he UNDER
went an operation. 1t did not seem to effect
cure and on Friday last he was operated upon
again. The recent operation was too much for
his exhausted vitality and at 10 O'Clock Sun
day night he breathed his last For over three
years Mr.. Maudau has been i'll. During his
second term as treasurer he was sick a great
portion of the time. He was upon the surg
cons table once in Canton and afterwaad
seemed better but of late has not been well.
He has kept hisresidence in Canton, occupy
ing the home at the corner of Third and New
ton streets. When he went to Toledo his wife
accompanied him, and nursed him through all
his sickness. The children have been in Max
imo withSimon Maudru for the past month
The remains wese taken to Maxine this
morning, passing through Canton on the morn
ing train. The funeral will take place at that
place from his old home.
Mr.. Maudru was one of Stark county's best
citizens. He was about fifty-fve years of age
and has spent life full of business activity

Maxine, and in his early days taught school.
Later he and his brother Simon engaged in a
general mercantile business in which they
were very successful. Upon his election as
Stark county treasurer he moved to Cam
ton. He served two terms, and his conduct
in the Office was worthy Of the highest praise.
The manner in which he sacrificed the fruits
of a lifetime of toll to replonish the treasury
after it had been looted by trusted employe,
thus saving the county any loss and protecting
his bondsmen, stamped him at once as man
of the highest honor. In all his dealings Mr..
Maudru was honorable and busincss-like and
the county loses good citizen by his death
He leaves wife and three children, John j.,
Frank and Viola.
Besides his own family, he has five surviv
ing sisters and one brother. They are Simon
