Sherman closed with declaration
when once this resolution goes to the
senate it will stay there until the milk
cows give good June butter before
it is acted upon" Laughter Then
Chiperfield spoke against the amend
ment and Bundy and Allen for it and
next Shanahan got the floor. He said
that six years ago he had started the
first crusade for itemizing appropria-
lions in the house appropriations COM
mittee, but that he got a chilly recep-
ton.
-Four years ago. said he, Il again
attempted to have the appropriations
itemized. The gentleman from Kan
kakee lCurtisl was chairman of the
committee, and the gentleman from
McDonough IShermanl was the speak
err OF this house. The appropriations
committee saidthatitcouid not be done.
l brought the matter before the house
steering committee and the honorable
speaker of the house said that this
could not be done; that this was only
one part of the legislature; that the
senate also passed on these appropria-
ton bills, and that unless we got the
consent of the senate it could not be
done. For that reason we now present
the matter in the form of joint reso-
lution.''
At the conclusion of Shanahan's
speech Sherman rose to question of
privilege. Il understand the gentle
man from Cook to say" said he, that
four years ago the speaker of the
house at that tine said it could not

mittee had been delayed a week. Cur
lis replied that there was no inten-
ton to delay the report. but that it
had not been submitted before because
he had been unavoidably absent.
Rinaker Moves to Strike Out.
Rinaker offered an amendment strik-
ing out the words the senate concur
ring herein" thus making it Il house
resolution instead of joint one. Lind
ly explained why the committee had
agreed upon Il joint resolution instead
of one to be adopted by the house
alone. He said that the house was
only one OF the branches of the gen
eral assembly and that it was desir-
able to have uniformity of action in
the two houses. He said that there
was no purposeOf making political cap
ital out of il.
Sherman Drops into Sarcnsam.
Sherman said that he was gratified
that there was to be no politics in the
consideration of the resolution. II
would be still further Grievcd," said he.
IF any aspersiOns should be cast upon
the grave and dignified senator's who
are tranSacting business with unusual
rapidity at the other end of this cap
itOl. | will be still further grieved if
there should be any question about the
character of the conference commit
tees that will ultimately be appointed
under the regulations of that body, for

Northcottl will see that proper confer
ence committees are appointed to eXpe-
dite the purposes as well as the spirit
of this resolution" Laughter

Some Hints on How to Keep It's Tenn
perature Down.
The kitchen is certainly not the most
comfortable place in the world during
the summer time, but much can be
done toward making it more habita-
bic. In the first place, a gas stove
should be used whenever it is possible
If you have not a gas stove and are
living in a district with gas laid on
you can hire one from the gas com
pany for very little. and some compa-
MES will even put one in free of
charge The gas bill need not be so
very enormous either if the following
rules are observed:
Lower the gas or turn it out the
minute the full fame is not needed.
Use a steamer with different COM
partments SO that several items of the
menu may be cooked over one ring.
If gas stove is an inpossibility a
good oil stove will do wonders. Select
one made by good firm, use good oil,
trim the wicks evenly, have every part
free from grease or oil, turn the wicks
rather low for the first five minutes,
then as high as you can without smok-
ing. The oven will take about fifteen
minutes to heat.
Never mind what cupboard or shelf
acts as your larder, see that it is kept
