How to Apply Enamel.


Nearly all articles Of furniture may

Iplication OF enamel. 1t dries quickly.
IL applied in the morning the article
will be dry by night. II, gives fine
gloss and is sanitary and easily cleaned.
When enameling room new WOOD
should first be painted with inside
white or white lead reduced with tur-
lpentine, which somewhat lessons the
cost. When this is hard and dry apply
one coat of enamel. A second coat ap-
piled after the first has become hard
and dry will produce fine finish.
Woodwork previously painted should
first be washed with soap and water
using little soda, borax or ammonia
to soften the water. Then apply one or
two coats of enamel.
A calcimined wall should be washed
or scraped off. An old wall that is sim
p1y soilfd in spots should be well
cleansed and the spots washed with
soda and water to remove grease. Then
apply with thin coat Of size made by
dissolving a little good glue IN boiling
water. It is best to apply the size while
It is warm. Do not leave spots unsized,
as If you do the paint will not dry
evenly. Then apply one or two coats OF
white inside paint. When this is dry ap'
ply the enamel. On small articles previ-
Gus painting will not be necessary.

something new and interesting

Nothing of any consequence In the
way OF new districts has been
brought to light In West Virginia
for many months and the present
prospects are not very encouraging
There Is chance for something
new In Calhoun county, but the
new section in Cabell county, far to
the fronti< r, Is hardly coming up to
expectations.
West Virginia completed 16S
wells In February and 81 of them
were dry and Il were gassers, while
the new production summed up
Z 34S barrels. The average yield
of the new wells was a little over
27 barrels. The January record
for West Virginia was 172 wells
completed. inclusive of 4o busters
and II gassers, while the new pro
duction amounted to 1891 barrels,
This was an average yield of 22H
barrels to the we'll, a decline of

age OF the preceding month. On
the last of January there were 40
rigs and 32e wells drilling under

was 5,32I barrels. Of this amour:
West Vlrginia's yield was 334S
barrels, or about s. pei cent, South
eastern Ohio supplied 1923 barrels,
or 20 per cent, while the remaining
900 barrels, or II per cent, came
from the districts beyond the
Pennsylvania State line. While
the West Virginia wells averaged
about 27 baorels each, those OF
Southeastern Ohio averaged II

A Dance without n Smile.

They have Il singular kind Of dance
conducted on the greens Of country vii
lagos in Russia. The dancers stand
apart, knot Of young men here, a
knot of maidcnS there, each sex by IL
self, and silent as crowd OF mutes.
\ piper breaks into Il tune. 4 youth
pulls off his cap and challenges his
girl with Il wave and bow. If the
girl is willing she waves her handker
chief in token Of assent. The youth
advances, takes q corner of the hand
kerchief in his hand and leads his las
sic round and round.
No word is spoken, and no laugh is
heard Stiff with cords and rich with
braids the girl moves heavily by her
self. goinS round and round. and never
allowing her partner to touch her hand.
The pipe goes droning on for hours in
the same sad key and measure and the
prize. of merit in this ''circling." as the
dance is called. is given by spectators
to the laSsie who in all that summer
revelry has never spoken and nevs'
smiled.
Playing youthful games Is not an un
bending of any sort Of dignity that
needs to be kept upright ra
It Ia rather relaxing Of tense mus
cles and tired nerves while exercising
a totally different set that otherwise
would have too much resting.
1t is by just such harmonious alter
nation in the use Of the different sets
Of muscles and nerves that a child ut.
tains the an around development which
everybody considers so beautiful.
Nature never intended any Of her

checks any living thing in its tendency
to be recreati-e. What brought you
happiness in your childhood. Whist gave
you health and vigor and made you

Galbraith's Life Spared.

Azel D. Galbraith who committed the
most atrocious crime ever perpetrated in
Gilpin county by killing his wife and lit.
tie boy, did not pay the death penalty
imposed by the district court. Owing to
a reprieve being granted by Governor
Peabody his life will be spared until
such time as the supreme court passes
on the constitutionality of the capital
punishment law. BY the reprieve the
warden Of the state penitentiary is
ordered to execute the sentence OF the
court at the end of that time unless 9th
erwise directed by competent authority.
Galbraith was sentenced to hang by
the district court for the murder OF his
wife and lietle sor in Russell Gulch last
spring. The murder was particularly
atrocious, and at the time Galbraith mar.
rowly escaped lynching, owing to the
fearlessness displayed by Sheriff Cody in
standing of an angry mob. He was con.
victed after brief trial at Central City,
ard sentenced to be executed during
the week beginning October l6.
