submerging the central Office, and the girls
are quitting work. Come in here now and
fix that up" The two jokers expressed sor-

What "Kalsominev" Are.

"Kalsomines'' are cheap temporary prep
Arations manufactured from chalks, clays,
whiting, etc., and are stuck on the walls
with decaying animal glue. They bear no
comparison with Alabastine, which is a ce-
ment that goes through process Of set
buying Alabastine, should see that the goods
are in packages and properly labeled. Moth
ing else is lust as good" as Alabastine. The
claims. of new limitations are absurd on
their face: They cannot offer the test of
