political.
President Roosevelt does not intend
that this report shall become public prop

TO show that graft permeated the post

ever since the republicans went back into

highly interesting reading not only be-
cause Of the direct charges it contains
against men who have been indicted by
the courts, but because of certain insnu-
ations against postoitice officials IN high
er authority. | have it from one who is
undoubtedly familiar with the details,
that while there is no direct charges
against Former Postmaster General
Smith or Former First Assistant Hea tn
the Inference is plain that both OF these
officials permitted system OF thievery to
exist beneath their very noses. and in the
case Of Nj Heath, ii least, there must
have been carelessnesa OF the grossest
kline. if nothing worse
am told that the former postmaster
general is, by implication. charged with
nothing more serious than whdl may be
termed "a rather careless method OF al
lowing those under him to run the de-
partment.' There is, of Coure, no Sug
ges,ton OF suspicion that Mr.. Smith was
in the slightest degree personally inter
ested in anything which bore the faint
OF corruptness and certainly nobody out
side OF the Investigators have ever
thought of suggesting any wrong act on
his part. But with the first assistant
postmaster general it is different He

which developed Beavers and MachCn,
against whom the graft charges are par
ticulary made. Everything in the routine
of the divisions presided over by Beavers

that there are at least 1000 Jewish

The kitchen Is Indeed the laboratory
OF the house. Il Is the source Of the
health. comfort, and, one might say,
happiness OF the household. No part
OF the household calls for such perfect,
such hyglenlc conditions as does the
kitchen. Extreme cleanliness and fresh
air are generally conceded to be the
first considerations.
The Ideal kitchen should have a tiled
hoor or one covered with linoleum.
The walls should. II possible. be tiled
or OF hard finished plaster. The plumb
ing should be exposed and there should
be an ample sink to prevent the sloP
ping OF greasy water ON the floor.
There should be large-slzed hood over
the range to allow all smoke aud odors
to escape through the chimney.
The furnishings Of the chimney
should be complete and should con
slst OF numerous shelves holding boxes
for the kitchen supplies. There should
be bags FOR solled towels and aprons
and clean drawers to put them away
