Guthrie, O. T.. May 31.-Logan county
Democrats are net in the best OF spirits

Of the territorial committee which met
there at that time that the Democratic

that Logan county would get the secreta-

understanding that the county would not
ask for representation on the campaign
committee. The matter, however, was
left with Nose Anderson of Enid. chair
man Of the territorial committee. 1t
was understood that Eugene Gill, of this
city would be secretary. Anderson. how

Wilson purchased all the improvements
on the claim, and Mrs. Bonner secured an
Injunction preventing him from occupy
ing them or doing any work on the place.
The decision virtually allows him the
occupancy until the contest over the
claim is decided, but also allows Mrs
Bonner to live on the claim. It is rather
a complicated case. Bonner fled on the
place and after securing a divorce from
Mrs. Helen Bonner, sold the improve
ments and his right to Wilson for some
500. When Wilson went TO file. however,
he found that Mrs. Bonner had entered
a contest. Later. the contest was de-
cided in favor of Mrs. Bonner. who was
giving the fling. and then Wilson filed
contest against her. This contest is now

CABINET WITH GLASS DOORS.

glass doors, in calm seclusion from
dust, dirt and general contamination.
One mother found that she could have
much better chance for ventilation in
the little back room by moving the
bed to the other side of the room. But
the closet door could not then be
opened, so she bought a cheap denim
curtain and asked a furniture dealer
the best way to put it up. He told her
of the convenient brass rod and sock
cts which any woman can put up for
herself just inside the frame of her
door, and the second picture shows how
the curtain was hung. In another
house, window was backed when the
addition was built on, and the contriv-
ing housewife utilized the space left
for book closet. Below it were placed
a couch with attractive cover and cush-
ions and piano lamp, thus making a
very alluring coy corner. One of the
most fascinating of little homes has
the "cutest" closetl Once there was
no way to reach the sitting-room from
the parlor except to 60 around through
and a chimney. If there had been a
single partition it would have been a
comparatively simple matter to throw
the rooms together. But ingenuity tri-
umphed. Opposite the closet door an
opening in the other partition was
made. These openings were prettily
arched and curtained, shelves for
books with drawers below were
placed across each side and the arch
way closet became thing of beauty
and convenience. Corner closets for
fancy cups and saucers should have
the cups hanging on the little brass
hooks which can be procured for five
cents dozen or less. Holders for dec
GRATED plates and saucers are also sold
Closets should not be allowed to be-
come dust traps or germ breeders.
Very often they should be thrown
open to air and light, then busted and
rearranged.-Good Housekeeping.

LIFE IN WASHINGTON.
Roosevelt Society VIII he Regu-
lated systematically.

Before President Roosevelt moved
Into the white house there was a
great deal of public concern as to
how he was going to stow away his
extensive family in the limited quar-
tiers of the executive mansion that
are allotted to the president as
residence. Mr.. Roosevelt did not eX-
press any alarm over the question,
but several newspapers grew almost
frantic at the prospect of the little
Roosevelts having to sleep on the
floor. The correspondents of those
papers divided up the living rooms
in every manner possible, but they
could not arrive at any conclusion
but that Kermit and Ethel would
have to eat at ''the second table"
and sleep standing up. This latter
necessity, it pointed out, was GER
tain to make the darlings bowlegged.
President Roosevelt resented such in
reference with what he considered a
personal matter. He even went so far
as to intimate to a friend that he
thought Mrs. Roosevelt was capable of
SOA'ihS luG pI Obltli- HIS Stublt
however, was not sufficient to over
come the ardent sympathy that was
going out from the mansions on CO.
lumbia Heights to the president and
his alleged half-homeless family. A
public meeting was called. A resolu-
ton was drawn pointing out with
many whereases the eXtremities of
the Roosevelts and resolving that if
the country wanted to do the proper
thing for its chief executive it should
build a palatial presidential white
house" which not only should be
in keeping with the dignity of the
nation but also in keeping with the
size of the presidents family.
Mr.. Roosevelt saw that great deal
of high-class sympathy was going to
waste and he decided to stop the ex-
travagance. So when Charles A.
Moore, the clerk of the senate dis
trict committee, called on him to
explain the plans of the park commits
sion regarding the extension of
breathing spots in the national capt
tai the president seized the oppor-
tunity to declare that neither he nor
Mrs. Roosevelt desired any altera-
tions in the white house. He said
they were both exactly suited, and

VENTILATE THE HAIR.
The Roots Need Air and Stimulation
or the Tresses VIII Soon Lose
Their Luster.

Shining coils of hair make any wom-
an beautiful. Anyone who will make
a habit of brushing and combing the
hair at night and vigorously rubbing
the scalp-rubbing till the blood tin
gles-may be sure, if she starts this
habit before her hair has begun to fall,
that her hair will keep its color and
youthful quality. Even falling hair
will often be brought back to vigor
by such treatment. A good deal is
said in favor of brushing the hair.
Brushing cleans the hair itself, but it
does not invigorate the scalp, as does
combing, and neither is half so good
as vigorous rubbing. When one be-
gins she will find it takes lot of rub
bing to make the head tingle, but in
a few weeks the first rub will start
the blood. That tells it's own story,
for where the circulation is sluggish,
there deterioration of vitality has be-
gun. Where the blood runs freely,
there life renews itself.
1t is good to let the hair hang loose
ly at night, especially if one sleeps in
a room in which outside air circulates
freely. The roots need air. Twice a
week braid the hair in loose braids all
over the head Hair thus treated will
keep glossy look, yet not hang to-
gether, and it will turn back prettily
in a pompadour with better effect than
if the curling irons are used. Besides,
curling irons are rrinous to the health
of the hair.-Chicago Post.

side of the door and hinge it to scant-

2x1 inches and one foot long, (b) and
nail them on the door about two inches

tween pieces (b) and put two pieces, (d)
across to hold it on. When you want
to put slop in the trough pull up the
bolt and swing the door out so that
it covers the trough and push the bolt
down outside of the trough and put
in the slop and swing the door back and
bolt it again. 1t is best to put a board
at each end of trough to keep the hogs
from getting into the trough at the
ends.-Agricultural Epitomist.

MUST HAVE GOOD ROADS.
Their Establishment Is Essential to
the maintenance of Rural Free
Delivery Routes,

Good roads are one of the features
necessary to the establishments of rural
free delivery routes. 1t is evident that
the post office department meant bust
ness when it declared at the start that
no free delivery routes would be
maintained over poor roads. Not only
must the roads be good in the begin
ming, but they must be kept in proper
order, or the route will be abolished.
An eastern postmaster recently re-
ceived the following letter, which
shows plainly the attitude of the post
office departments:
Reports recently received show that
the roads travelled by rural carrier
from your office aye in bad condition
and likely to be impossible in bad
weather. You will please notify the
patrons of routes one and two that the
present lack of attention to these
roads will, if continued, be likely to en-
danger the permanency of the rural
free delivery service there.
"A rural carrier cannot possibly
make regular time or perform efficient
service over poor roads, particularly
during the winter and spring months.
The summer is the time for mending
these highways, which are really serv-
ing as post roads, and which should
always be in passable condition for
the transport of mail. 1t is the hope
of the department that the patrons
who are receiving the benefit of the
service appreciate it, and that an eff
fort to repair all deficient portions be-
fore winter sets in, so that the perma-
nency of rural free delivery service
may be insured" -Orange Judd
Farmer.

ECONOMY OF SPACE.
There Are Many Ways In which odd
NOOks and Corners Can BE
Made of Use,

Away up in the attic, see to it that
the carpenter builds in higher tier of
drawers for bedding and packed-away
wearing apparel. Have plentiful sup
ply of hooks put up and a cheap cur
tain to draw down, so that what
is hung upon them shall be protected
from dust. When repairs are made it
is wise to utilize space for closet room
and not allow even a little corner to
be boarded up if it might be thus made
useful. The picture here given is from
a photograph of a cabinet with sliding
glass doors. This was built into a
space once occupied by a ''let-down"
bed in a colonial homestead. 1t has be-
come almost too much fashion to lit
ter a room with bric-a-brac. Some

a special value of association attain an
added dignity when collected behind

that settled it. Mr.. Moore passed the
word along the line and now the peo-
pie of Columbia Heights are not as
badly worried as they were.
The appointment by Mrs. Roosevelt
of Miss Isabella Hagner as social sec
rotary to the mistress of the white
house, says the Chicago Daily News,
is believed to be the beginning of
what will amount to a revolution in
national social affairs. 1t is under
stood that Miss Hagner will be more
than mere secretary to Mrs. Roose
welt and will really be the precep-
tor of the social functions at the ex-
ecutive mansion. She has made spe-
cial study of etiquette and precedence
and for several years has been recog-
nized as the highest authority on
such questions residing in Washing
ton. Mrs. Roosevelt is the first wife
of president to avail herself of such
an important aid. Mrs. Cleveland had
a stenographer who served as her sec
rotary, but all the troublesome ques-
tions arising in the preparation of
state dinners or receptions were
handed over to the official clerks of
the executive mansion for settle
ment.
In the past the greatest difficulties
have come from the diplomats, who
complained constantly that the chief
executive of the United States han
died the social end of their office in
catch-as-catch-can manner. One occu-
pant of the white house would treat
the members of the diplomatic corps
in one way at one dinner and at the
next function the order of affairs
would be either reversed or all mixed
up. The appointment of Miss Hagner
rs taken to mean that President
Roosevelt has decided to settle this
phase of official life in a way that will
establish precedent for all time. 1t
is predicted that when the social sea-
son begins next January rules will
be given out from the white house
that will be adhered to during the
continuance of Mr.. Roosevelts resi-
dence there. Miss Hagner is expect
ed to fix the social rank not only of
every member of the diplomatic
corps but of the members of the cab
met and of the army and navy.

LINEN FROM PORTO RICO.
Mrs. Roosevelt Orders Large Supply
from Islands for Use in the White
House.

Mrs. Roosevelt mas just ordered a
large supply of linen from Porto Rico
for use in the white house. All of it
will be embroidered with the coait-of-
arms of the United States. The sup
ply includes sideboard covers, tea
cloths, napkins, dolilies, table cloths,
and other articles much needed in the
white house. While i'm New York Mrs.
Roosevelt became much interested in
THE work of the Porto Rican women,
and wishing to assist the enterprise
of the island, as we'll as secure rare
linen for the white house, she gave
the order.
Aside from the articles for house
hold use, she ordered for herself a
pink pima silk evening gown exquis-
itely embroidered, and also a dress of
the same material for her little
daughter Ethel.
Not a few of the Christmas gifts
made by Mrs. Roosevelt will also
come from this same source, espe-
ciaily those to her most intimate
friends.
