HANGING YOUR PICTURES.

The following excellent advice on
picture hanging Is taken from the
blouse Beautiful" Pictures should
always be hung on the level Of the
eye and not strung up SO high that one
must crane the neck to see them. or so
low that the furniture Of the room ia
continually knocking against them.
Gold twisted wire Is used entirely, and
the size is governed by the weight Of
the picture. Any good sized picture
Is hung with double wire which is sus-
pended from the picture molding and
passed through the screw eyes at the
back Of the frame and up again to the
picture molding. Passing the wire be-
hind the picture makes It more secure
and also easier to regulate In height
Plain brass molding hooks, two for
each picture, should be used, their size
also regulated by the weight of the
picture. Chains are never used.
II there are number OF small pic.
lures they should not be hung from the
picture molding. 1t Is better to draw
the wire tight across the back Of the
picture from screw eye to screw eye
md then hang them on small brass
wall hooks or wire nails. Either OF
these mar the wall very little and
small pictures count for more In this
way.

POLITICAL TRICK PUTS
MAYOR OUT Of OFFICE

Ottawa, Ont, Nov. 16.-In an effort
to carry out the promises Of civic re-
forms upon a platform Endorsed by the
largest majority ever given a mayor
atty candidate In Ottawa, Mayor Nor
ris has fallen victim to the cunninsg
Of his enemies.
Despairing Of accomplishing his de-
feat at the approaching civic elections,
plan was devised by the Police De.
partment to accomplish the Mayors
downfall by obtaining conviction
against him under clause In the On
tario liquor license act, which pro.
vldes that II any member of any mum.
elpal council is convicted Of having
knowingly committed an offense under
the act he shall thereby forfeit and
vacate his seat and shall be disquali.
lied for two years thereafter.
In the Police Court today Mayor
Morris pleaded guilty to q charge OF
purchasing liquor at the Russell House
during hours when the license act pro.
hibits the selling of liquor. Last Mon
day evening Mayor Morris entertained
some men of high standing Mt the
Russell House. Liquors formed part
Of the refreshments ordered. and this
constituted the offense for which he
Is now convicted.
The Mayor has been working 10
reform the police department, In which
he claimed Tammany methods were
followed. He came into collision witt
the chief Of police few days ago. ant
the latter declared he would do all IL
his power to secure his downfall. Tht
court today imposed fine Of IS and
costs upon Morris, and the Mayor
chair Of Ottawa is now vacant. Morris
who is very wealthy man and o
great determination, will work to &C
complish his rehabilitation.
