To Prevent the Moth.

To protect carpets, clothes and cloth
covered furniture, furs, etc., they should
be thoroughly beaten, shaken, brushed
and exposed as long as is practicable to
the sunlight in early spring, either In
April. May or June, depending ON the
latitude, as Good Housekeeping fore
warns the housekeepers. The brushing
Of garments is very important consid-
Grafton to remove the eggs or young
Larvae which might escape notice. Such
material can then be hung away in
clothes closets which have been thor
oughly cleaned and, if necessary, spray
ed with benzine about the cracks of the
floor and the baseboards. If no other
protection be given, they should be ex-
amined at least once month during
summer, brushed and, If necessary, ex-
posed to the sunlight.
1t would be more convenient, how
ever, to so inclose or wrap such material
as to prevent the access of the moths to
it after it has once been thoroughly
treated and aired. This can be easily ef-
fected in the case of clothing and furs
by wrapping them tightly in stout pa
per or inclosing in well made bags of
cotton or linen cloth or strong paper.

Clear Starching.

An English matron claims that clear
starching is accomplished in this way to
the best advantages: Wash the articles
in three waters, dry them and dip them
in thick starch previously strained
through muslin. Squeeze them, shake
them gently and again hang them up to
dry. When dry, dip them twice or thrice
in clear water, squeeze them, spread
them ON linen cloth, roll them up in
1t and let them lie an hour before iron
ing them. A small piece Of white wax
added to the starch prevents the iron
from sticking and gives a glossy surface
to the material

Have You
An Account?

This is a serious question,
one at which some folks take
offense, yet statesmen are under
the necessity of asking it.
Some folks deal near home,
settle infrequently, never in
vestigate to see whether they
pay more than they should and
too often allow their accounts to
60 long over due. If you don't
care what the family expenses
are it's a poor way to do if you
want to leave your children in
affiuent circumstances when
you are gone. Now it is quite
an advantage to have an open
account at a well-known house,
who can execute your order
promptly. Often persons say
they don't want an account and
will pay in a few days. But
we cannot keep memoranda of
charges; it isn't safe or good
business. The stock found in
ordinary stores is usually stale,
uninviting and inferior, while
the stock in our store is turned
so frequently and SO carefully
watched that it is at all times
fresh. Our stock in trade con-
sists of the luxuries and deli
cacies from every civilized ma
.tion. Send for our catalogue
and prices and note the variety
offered. Telephone us-240.

(Antigo Republican,

Last Saturday the sheriff Of Forest
county sent down here for the blood
hounds and an escort, to help track and
capture the person who murdered French
the trapper, near Three Lakes. City
Marshall John Macarthur, went up with
the dogs and = 1t them to work on the
supposed trail, and was but q short
time tracking the man to where he came
out at the railroad track and was sup
posed to have boarded IL freight train on
the 500 as it pulled up Il heavy grade.
Mr. Macarthur came with home the dogs
but was wired to return on noon train
Monday, which he did.
There are good many .around our
town who doubt the man ackiug
qualities of the two blood hounds above
referred to, but the dogs have satisfied
Messrs Thompson aud Macarthur that
they can do all that WAS claimed for
them by the breeder and evenif the dogs
are not better than the common run,
they surely have more than paid for first
cost and their livingtby putting stop
to the sneak theiving that was going OH
