The Pioneer Woman Decorator.

One of the first women in the coun-
try to take up the profession OF in
terror decoration in a serious way was
Mrs. Harry Klngenfeld, who a dozen
years or so ago took special course at
Columbia College as a preparation of
the work. At that time Columbia
College had not opened its doors
to women, even informally, but
concessions were made to Mrs. King
enfield, who was the daughter Of Sen
ator Ijams, Of Nebraska, and under
the private tutorship of the best man
the school afforded, she pursued a
special course in architectural
draughtsmanship and fat water color
work with a thorough grounding in
the artistic and historical side OF the
subject.
1t was an unusual line for woman
to adopt at thu time. There were few
II any, women decorators in the coun-
try. certainly none at all in the West
when Mrs. Klingenfeld came back to
open n studio in Chicago. A little
later Miss Mary Tillinghast, who had
been studying with John La Fargo for
years, opened a studio of her own in
New York, and to the business Of
making stained glass windows added
that of making rooms in which the
windows would fit Since then good
many other women have gone into
the work, with more or less Of similar
preparation and with proportionGte
success, but Mrs. Kllngenfeld was a
pioneer in the field, with all of the
true pioneers enthusiasm and hope
and with also the pioneers courage
in overcoming obstacles. None of these
qualities has deserted her to-day and
her love for her work and her belief
in it as a legitimate phase Of art
reaching out and touching the lives
Of the people are as strong to-day rs
ever
Probably no other decade has ever
seen so marked an improvement in
public taste as the last ten years. 1t
would be hard to hnd to-day a woman
who would tie a yellow satin bow to
the heel Of the flying Mercury as Mrs.
Klingenfeld found one when she first
began to decorate other peoples
homes and the time when fireplaces
were regarded from n so-called Orna-
mental point of view, and not at all
from their Utilitarian side, has about
passed.-Milwaukee Sentinel

Good way to clean Mating.

To clean mating sweep it twice
first with a stiff broom, working along
the grain Of the straw; then crosswise
with a soft broom dipped in warm
water, rinsing with clean water. This
brightens all sorts of colored mating,
and also saves it, in measure, from
fading.
Very light mating is best washed,
after sweeping with weak boraX
water or rather wiping with cloths
wrung out OF it, Anything whatever
stopped upon n matted floor makes
the last estate Of it much worse than
the first. Dust invariably collects un-
derneath and, once wet, shows through
in ugly dark splotches. For grease
spots a grain of prevention beats n
ton of cure, but if they exist, cover
them quickly with prepared chalk
wet with tuIpentine, let the mixture
remain for two days, then brush off
with a stiff brush. If the spots s~a
very big and very greasy, put CAe-
eighth as much washing soda as chalk
and mix with water TO the thickness
Of putty.
Little used mating, as in spare
chambers or upper summer rooms,
should be swept very clean, then
wiped with cloth wrung out Of
sweet milk. DO this once a year
it keeps the straw live and to de-
gree plant, If the milk-wash is used
in living room or on n piazza follow
it by a wlping with very hot clear
water to keep the floor from drawing

Official Explanation.

The annaul report of Commissioner
of Pensions Evans, when il is made
public in day or two, will probably
bring down upon him renewed as
sault on his administration of Office,
for the report viii show that he has
not expended during the fiscal year
just ended I'll of the $40 COO, 600
which Congress appropriated for pen
sions, but that he has, on the contrary,
turned back in the Treasury nearly
five millions Of dollars. He will be
charged with having deliberately de-
prived hundreds of veterans or their
widows of pensions justly due them
for no other cause than his hostility
to the old soldier.
. l had no knowledge until a very
short time ago that there would be
surplus in my bureau this year, said
Mr.. Evans. "The clerks in my bu-
reau adjudicate the cases as prompt
ly as they can. and no one ever asks
whether there is enough money in the
appropriation bill to cover AL the
pensions issued, or whether there will
be a surplus. When l appeared be
fore the Appropriations Committee
and asked for $40, 000,0, Chairman
Cannon asked me if | thought that
sum would suffice. | told him did
not know, and that | regarded the
pension appropriation bill merely n
letter of credit. If the pensions issued
by my department during the year
exceeded the sum given me by Con-
gress, the deficiency would have to
be made good next year. Ii | did not
use up the entire appropriation, |
would turn it back into the Treasury.
The amount of money at my disposal
cut no figure in the work in my bu-
reau, and every man who was entitled
to a pension during the past year has
received it 1t seems that have five
millions left this year. Next wear |
maybe five millions short. -

Discussion of Representative Bah
cocks idea of removing tthe Tariff
from all products of the Esteel trust
has brought out some interesting facts
about the steel trade. 1t has shown
that big as the trust Is, it by no means
controls the steel trade in this coun-
try, there being many establishments,
some of them employing a large
number of men, which have no con-
neclon with the trust. 1t seems to
be generally admitted that the re-
moval of the Tariff on steel products
would not injure the big trust TO any
marked extent, but it is claimed that
it would neces state an immediate re-
duction of wages in all steel establish
ments not in the trust. This claim
which is being made by those who
ought 10 know whereof they speak, is
causing many who were at first in
clined to favor Mr.. Babcock's idea to
entertain doubts of Its wisdom, and if
it be bstantiated by unprejudiced
investigation, which number of the
members of the House are quietly
making. the bill for the repeal of the
Tariff on steel products will not be
supported by a corporal's guard of
Republicans IN either branch of Con-
gress at the coming session. Desir
able as many consider II to curb the
power of the big trusts, the Republi.
can majority in Congress are not go
ing 10 be stampeded into the support
of "a nything of the sort without are
fully considering it from every point
of view, and they will certainly nor al
low any legislation TO get throuth that
will reduce the wages of American
workingmen. - CrawfordsyIlle, ina.

NJ Mayhem today testified that Bert
Glenn had often shaved him ard
that he knew him well. The defen-
dant, whether man or woman, is the
person he knew her features perfect
ly. The nose and eyes were unmis-
taxable. She was required to remove
her veil and he was even more posi-
tive IN his naturalization. George
Hoover said Glenn boarded at his
house six months, and he knew him
well. Ellis Glenn is the same person.
Hoover told Of the making of a 800
note, and identified the note aud the
deed of trust given to secure it ex
cept that the latter had been raised
from 800 to 81, 400 and the name of
the trustee changed. Hoover told of
several courtships Glenn had among
the W1lliimstown girls, and said he

The Wichita Eagle, in discussing
the action of the Swift Packing Com
pany in prohibiting profanity among
it's employees, says: LAS a matter of
fact there is not shadow of excuse
for profanity in any relation or ex-
igency of life. 1t adds no force or
power to speech. 1t is the confession
for vocal impotency in the man who
nses it, The clustering, bloviating
blasphemer who flies into rage and
pours forth stream of profanity up
on all occasions is man that il not to
be feared. When it comes to ques-
tion of vocal dynamics the man whose
speech is as clean and sharpe as a
hounds tooth will inspire most fear
and respect.
