Preventing Windows From Frost
* FL 545t 80. ing 1865 ,E5 ~ saz

Preventing Windows From Frost
AK ing
The time is approaching when the
owners of display store fronts will
have the usual cold weather trouble
from the frosting of their windows.
This may be prevented by painting the
glass with, a solution of glycerine in
63 per cent spirit of wine Glycerine,
like chloride Of lime, has the property
of absorbing water, and this action
overcomes the difficulty. For small
show windows sulphuric acid may be
employed, as is done in Russia. This,
however, is only efhcacious where the
windows are double. The cracks be-
tween the two window frames and
around the edge are kept tightly sealed
and several small vessels half filed
with concentrated sulphuric acid are
left in the space between the plates Of
glass But the simplest and best cure
of all for frosting windows is to have
small electric fan playing near it
continuously. The air is thus kept in
motion, and there is no chance for the
frost to settle on the glass.

The chiseled chin Was posed with an
air of supreme hauteur, and the arched
eyebrows sought the rim Of her golf

Her quick pedaling ceased suddenly,

OBITUARY.

Died on Monday afternoon, the oath
inst, at the home of her daughter.
Mrs. w. II. Sanderson, Ada NJ, widow
of the late DIR. S. NJ. Davis, aged 80
years.
The deceased has been very feeble for
over year and for the last three
months was confined to her bed.
Born in Norton, Mass, she in early
life became decided christian which
she continued to be all through her
years. She was devoted and much
loved m ember of the Congregational
church in this place.
At the age of 2S she married Mr..
Jason Reed, who died eight years
later. About eight years after this
she came with her childreD-M RS.
VIM. Sanderson, Mrs. Webb and Mr..
Geo. Reed-to River Falls, soon after
this becoming the wife of DR.. S. NJ.
Davis.
The funeral, conducted by Rev. c.
ii. Mcintosh, her pastor, took place
on Wednesday afternoon from the
home of her daughter Mrs. Sanderson.
Dryden but voices the thought of all
who knew her best:
mo single virtue we could most commend
whether the wife, the mother, or the friend:
For she was all in that supreme degree,
That as no one prevailed, so all was she.
The several parts lay hidden in the piece,
The occasion but exerted this or that. "

The Picnic.

Early Wednesday morning the
hurrying of teams and odor of baked
bean ANNOUNCED the fact that a grand
picnic was on hand. Mrs Alfred
Stiles home, which is about two and
a half miles northwest of this city,
proved TO be the chosen spot on which
number Of Cascade and West Side
people held one of the happiest picnics
of the season.
Singing, reading, reciting. pitching
quoits, sliding down the lawn
aud PLAYING bliad-nln's bnff,
were some of the many amusements
which helped to rapidly pass away the
happy hours. No melancholy person
could long endure the company of so
many jolly people. Nor was it at all
necessary to say with the poet Homer:
Haste thee, Nymph, and bring with thee
Jest aud youthful Jolity,-
Sport, that wrinkled care derides
And Laughter, holding both her sides,
for the nymphs were indeed there
without an invitation.
So the day passed in innocent sport
till sunset, when the happy company
wendell their homeward way.
ONE OF THEM.

The Coming Minnesota State Fair.

lit NOIliilE ullltSUtd Dlutt IT ali.
The great Minnesota State Fair will
be held at Hamline, midway between
the cities OF st. Paul and Minneapolis,
commencing Monday, August 81, and
ending Saturday, September 3. These
dates have been selected by the Board
of Managers of the State Agricultural
Society for the Fair because the Ma
tional Encampment Of the Grand
Army of the Republic viii be in ses-
sion in st. Paul and an Encampment
of the Knights of Pythias in Mime
apolis during the week, and because it
is desired to give the thousands of
visitors from all parts of the country,
who will be attracted by these impor-
tant events and the low passenger
rates made available for everybody
because Of them, an opportunity to
see the products of the Northwest as
they will be shown at the Fair.
A very large attendance is expected
and for this reason the Fair is being
planned upon much larger scale
than usual. Other Northwestern
states-Oregon, Washington, the Da-
kotas, Montana and Idaho-are join
ing with Minnesota in preparing ex-
hibits, making the Fair for this year
Northwestern Exposition as we'll.
In magnitude, variety and interest,
the exhibition will be the greatest
ever attempted by a Northwestern
state, and an amusement program,
suited and apportioned TO the occa-
sion, will be carried out. While rail-
way tickets, at low rates, will be on
sale but two or three days, the return
ing portion of the tickets will be good
for month, so no one need make the
trip hurriedly. Those who go to Min
nesota when these great events are
scheduled to occur, will be abundantly
entertained and will find much to see

Some very thorough-going and
much needed street work is being
done on Main street, and an area three
blocks long has been evenly covered
with crushed limestone. The stuff is
so finely pulyerized that no coating Of
clay or gravel is needed, and in the
course OF time it completely mikes
with the softer sub-strata forming a
firm but elastic road-bed. Several
years ago this method of road making
was introduced in town and the newly
purchased stone crusber did some very
effective work. The roads leading to
Prescott and Ellsworth were the
product of this method, and until
very recently have been two of the
best roads about town. Main street
was. treated in the same fashion and
has long kept its form" and
solidity. Until within the last year
or two, in consequence of this work
done in the closing eighties, we have
been able to boast the handsomest
roads in the two counties; but the
heavy wash-outs of the past two
summers have made our boast as fiat
and unpalatable as the vapor from a
frog pond. 1t was high time, then,
that the old stone crusher was given
another limestone dinner; and when
he was dragged out week ago Mon
day and his iron jaws set wagging
again under the impulse Of steam
engine, the people rejoiced, for they
saw that the era of good roads was at
hand. -Four teams and twice as
many men pour the fodder into his
, massive jaws, and several more men
and teams distribute the chewed-up
product on the streets. It's an
interesting process, and on the whole
seems to be we'll managed. With the
best of sidewalk systems, and good
prospect for fine roads, we shall soon
be ready to show off the town to our
neighbors.
