POLITICAL LITERATURE AT PUB.

The Legislature ordered 5000
copies to be printed of the reports of
the various smelling committees ap-
pointed to nose about the asylum,

This is most fragrant waste of pub

misappropriaton of public funds for
partisan campaign uses. None of
the committees have reported any

A notable action of the Wisconsin,
senate, last week, was the passage OF
the bill TO exempt credits from TAXA
alton. Senator Burns of PlattoVlIlc
was among the supporters OF the
measure and made II very good
speech In It's favor and showed ny
reference TO Grant county the great
injustice OF taxing evidences Of debt,
He showed how Grant county, almost
entirely given over to agriculture ana
certainly containing much less prop
erty OF the class usually called
intagiblc than Milwaukee and many
other counties In the state, had on It's
tux rolls more property of this form
than any other county IN the stale
with the exception OF milwaukee,
county and very nearly cqualing Mil
waukec. He insisted that the present
tax system amounted TO double
taxation and he denounced 1t AZ

THE sPRINTINe ROACH.
How the Ant Played Upon His Weak
ness and Won.


Once upon time there was n roach
lived in hole In the wall next door
10 wise old ant. Now 1t happened that
The ant did not like the roach and would
gladly have murdered him but for the
roachs size and great strength, which
made the ant no match for him in CON
test of strength.
The ant placed poison at the roach's
door, but the roach was wary and ate
1t not. One evening, when the lady of
the house came into the room to look
for reaches, the ant called upon the
roach to come out of his hole, hoping
the lady would kill him, but the roach
heard her footsteps and kept close
Next the ant tried to compass the de-
struction of the roach by daring him to
climb up the side of the wall, hoping
that the roach would fall from great
height and break his neck. The roach
however, refused to climb.
Now 1t happened that the roach was
a great Splinter and was very proud
of his ability to get over the ground in
q hurry, The ant Glanced to think Of
this, and going to the roach, challenged
him to footrace. The roach accepted
the challenge ut once and stated that
he could run faster with his front feet
tied than any handy legged ant in the
whole house. The ant selected the spot
where the foot race was to be run,
which was across yellow sheet of pa
per on the window sill. Hither both the
ant and the roach went and halted at
the edge of the sheet of paper.
Are you ready?" cried the roach.
II amw shouted the ant.
Cor yelled the roach, and with that
started across the sheet Of paper at a
dreadful pace, only to fall down and
stick fast In nauseous mire ere he had
| gone two inches. The ant did not start
Mt all, for well Ike knew that the race
course was across sheet of flypaper.
Moral: There is a weak spot In ev-
cry mans armor If you can but find It.

Nudes and Macarupi.

MANY persons believe nudes orig.
mated in Germany" says New York
Italian arm of the law, "but such is
not the case, for nudes, macaroni
spaghetti and vermicelli are the same
only of different shapes and sizes. Nu-
dies is handmade preparation of the
mountain, and nearly every Italian and
German family in America makes II
by hand. Italians never bake maca-
roni or paste in any form. The only
way to eat it is boiled. In Italy the
cooking of this dish is left to the head
of the family, whether he be rich or
poor, If he has the time. The paste Is
dropped into boiling water, and when
done is drained in colander. A pot.
roast gravy is made, with lima beans,
tomatoes and mushrooms added. Then
layer of macarOni is put in plat
ter and covered with the sauce, some
italian pepper and grated Parmesan
cheese; then another layer, and more
sauce, pepper and cheese, until the dish
Is filed. That makes an artistic dish
Careless people simply dump the maca-
roni into a deep dish, pour on all the
sauce, pepper and cheese and stir ey-
erything together"

frhe Hood,

The blood is life. We derive from the
blood life, power, beauty, and reason, as
the doctors have been saying from time
immemorial A healthy body, a fresh mp
pearance, and generally all the abilities
we possess depend on that source of life.
1t is therefore the duty of every sensible
man to keep the blood as pure and nor
NAL as possible. Nature, in its Infinite
wisdom, has given us thermometer in
dicating the state of the blood, which
appeals to our reason by giving notice of
it's impurity. Small eruptions of the skin,
to which we scarcely pay any attention,
headache, ringing noises in the ears, lassi-
tude, sleeplessness, are generally a sign
that the blood is not in its normal state,
but is filed with noxious substances
These symptoms deserve our full ntten-
ton. If more attention were paid to
those symptoms, and steps taken to re-
move them, then many illnesses from
which we suffer would become unknown,
and the human body would become
stronger and healthier. Attention there
fore should be paid to those warning
signs, and the blood can be purified and
poisonous substances removed from 1t by
the use of DR.. August Koenig's Hamburg
Drops, discovered more than sixty years
ago.

"a few bales Of these skins were ship
ped last winter, experimentally, direct
from Birmingham to the United States.
1t was thought, shipper told me, that
we had produced a new machine in
the United States which could pull out
the long hair of rabbit skins at less
cost than by the extremely cheap hand
labor of the continent. learn that the
machine experiment was not a success
were interested In the American ven
ture are again sending their skins to
the continent, where the long, useless
hairs are laboriously pulled out by
hand and the skins reshipped to hat
manufacturers in the United States
who shave off the close hair and use
this fur to make felt hats
millions of rabbits, British and Aus
tralian, are consumed annually in
Great Britain. Dealers purchase skins
from game and poultry shops, and
where rabbits are dressed in house
holds there is, as perquisite, penny
apiece to the cook. One Birmingham
dealer tells me he handled 100000
rabbit skins last year."
