Netsukj Purses,

The fad for the netsuki purse Is one
that started in San Francisco, where
the many Japanese merchants first
put these purses on display. 1t has
spread the country over, and now the
fashionables are paying as much as
$3.50 or 5000 for purses of solid en-
broidery with old ivory knobs that
catch in the belt. The knob is becom-
ing feature Of all the new purses;
the New York shops are displaying
jeweled ores made of gold and silver
links and carried by the ivory knobs.

Care Of Jewels.

People who have jewels should re.
member that if turquoises are wetted
they are apt to lose color. Pearls
should be exposed to light and air as
much as possible but not to damp.
Opals must never be exposed to great
heat or they may crack and fall from
their setting; don't forget this when
warming your hands at the fire II You

A story illustrating his readiness OF
speech is told of Curran, the Irish wit.
When Curran, who was a man OF not
very prepossessing appearance, pre-
sented himself one day at the house
of noble lord, who had not had the
honor of his personal acquaintance
his lordship exclaimed: What!
You're not Curran? You could not

AGAIN THOSE REDUCTIONS.

A careful examination OF the records
of the comfy board OF equalization fails
70 throw the slightest light upon the
mysterious reasons promised by CHAIR
man Davis for the benevolence extended
to it's favorite mill companies.
There is but one written application
from the favored concerns on file, This
is from tie Northwestern Lumber Co.
asking reduction OF $4,000, $4,000 of
which was allowed. The reason assigned
for the request was that the propert!
was assessed "higher in proportion to
value tl.an was similar property in this
county and state y
Prior to the meeting OF the board.
Assessor A,cher informed Chairman
Davis that such requests would probably
he made and sta ed that the assessments
had been made carefully, and were, II
anything, :till too low, and if the board
desired it could have all the data in his
office to use in determining how to act
upon such applications.
This was the condition that confronted
the board. Did they make any effort to
discover whether or not tie applications
contained any merit? Did they ask the
concerns for detailed information, and
compare it with TIE data in the assessors
office? Not at all. But, on the contrary.
as if to prevent the possibility of the
case OF the other taxpayers being pre-
sented, those applications are pigeon
holed until five O'Clock p. m. OF the last
day of the sessions, then taken up and
reductions granted. Common courtesy
would have demanded that the assessor
be heard before convicting him of hav
ing assessed those companies higher
erty in the county, vet he was not called
upon.
Granting, for sake of argument, that
the reductions were perfectly proper, we
submit that the entire procedure has
an appearance that forbids this construc-
ton without Knowledge OF the reasons
that governed the action. Until those
reasons are made public, the board has
itself to blame if the matter is regarded
as much donation OF about $1,000 as if
that sum had been appropriated out of
the general fund for the benefit Of those
companies.
