CARPET CLEANING.

There is only one process by which the
dirt and sand can be gotten out of a car
pet and that is to take it up and give 1t
a thorough beating. There is only one
way to do this beating without injury to
the carpet and there is only one pace in
Savannah where this method is used, any
liquid that may be put on the carpet while
on the floor is compelled to soak into
the back Of the carpet and do ii consider
able damage by rotting the carpet. If

tial environments of the war Office and
go to New York by the first train he can
catch on the 9th of March. Secretary
Morton will seek to forget the cares of

alluring one to the Secretary of Agri-

Eagle River review. [volume] (Eagle River, Wis.) 1890-1927, 1897-02-18

told by Irwin Cobb in the Paducah
News, though it will sound much like
a pipe dream to the uninitiated: "a
house fly went off with a pair Of scis-
sors at Kuttawa few weeks ago.
This sounds strange, especially when
1t is added that the fly was just COM
mon, everyday specimen Of that do
nestle pest. In that respect, however,
the fly differed from the shears. The
scissors were among the wonderful
minute tools intended for the cherry
stone workbasket made by G. G. Won
Schoeler, the engraver. Although so
small that their outline could not be
distinguished by the ordinary eye, they
were perfect in size and mechanism, 1t
being possible to cut human hair and
cobwebs with their tiny steel blades.
1t took several days of Mr.. Won Schoe-
ler's time to produce them, too.
1.-The scissors lay on the carver's
work table. The fly started across the
table, and he took flight. The shears
were so light that the insect moved
away with the case before Mr.. Won
Schoeler could rescue his precious lit
tie prize. The fly has not been seen
since. Neither have the scissors. The
former owner Of the scissors says the
fly Is at home cutting out new pair OF
light trousers for summer use. Louis

to the writer's query, ito take my old
place there with the firm of Harmon, Col
ston, Goldsmith & Hoadly, of which an
the senior partner"
Secretaries Carlisle and Herbert de-
clared the future to be sealed book to
them, so far as present intentions are
concerned. Secretary Carlisle preferred
to fence my questions regarding his future
movements. Rumor has it that he will
practice law in New York, Cincinnati and
half dozen other places. AS not even
an ex-Secretary of the Treasury can be i'll
more than one city at once, one rumor is
as good as another. The fact is, say the
Washingtonians, that Mr.. Carlisle has yet
hopes of staying in Washington, and, if
his ambitious wife can manage it, he will.
Private Secretary Thurber talked freely
concerning the plans of the present incum-
bent, and incidentally knocked in the head
a variety of rumors with regard to Mr..
Clevelands intentions when be says good
by to the White House.
'The President" said Mr. Thurber,
with Mrs. Cleveland and the children,
will go direct from Washington to his new
home at Princeton, N. J. He intends to
stay there only short time, but hopes he
will be allowed during that time to enjoy
the welcome change from the hustle Of
official life to the quiet of private resi-
dence. Buzzards Bay has too firm hold
on the affections of both the President and
Mrs. Cleveland for PRINCETON to charm
them long. They will go to Gray Gables
after short stay at Princeton, and Mr..
Cleveland expects to remain there for

The American French Mixed"

"In the manufacture of candy" said
a diplomatic officer of experience,
.there is no doubt but that America
now leads the world. American can
dies are about the only ones made OF
sugar that can be bought In Paris.
Though the French have long led the
world in this line, they have gradually
but surely managed to do away with
the use of sugar in their candies, ex-
cept where they make them for con-
sumption In other countries, and IN
America In particular. The French
people will not buy confection which
is made of sugar alone. They want
combinations and depend more upon
starches than sugar.
81 think I am safe in saying that
sugar-made candy Is rarely, II ever,
sold in Paris. OF course, it would be
made If it was desired, but the people
of Paris prefer something else. Two
weeks before Christmas | was In
Paris, and I had to send to at least q
half dozen so-called famous candy
manufacturers before I could buy any
supar-made candies. I could get hun
dreds of combinations, marshmallows,
chocolates and things in that line. In
Germany it Is much the same way
