An interesting feature Of the Delineator
during the summer will be the series of
articles on the great women Of pioneer
times by Landon knight, and the first
number appears in the May magazine,
when the story Of Catherine Sewer is told.
The many admirers Of Nine. Sembrich
will enjoy the story of her summer home.
Fashions, as usual, occupy large share
Of the magazine, and with their help any
woman may remodel her wardrobe into
the pretty new styles, while the designs
for commencement gowns are especially
seasonable. The story of the club woman
by Agnes surbrtdge brings its heroine into
perplexing tangle, and there are other
stories as pleasing, if not as exciting.

A DOMESTIC MENACE
Kitchen Sink Needs Plenty Of soapsuds
- and an Occasional Lye
oath

The kitchen sink is more Of menace to
the health Of the family than any other
one thing in the household. Many other
wise immaculate housekepers do not re-
aliZe that their sinks are not receiving
proper care. Hot soapsuds used often will
keep them clean, but this will not prevent
the deadly gases from polluting the air
Of the kitchen and permeating into the
other rooms, and the rooms Of all others
the most in danger, the sleeping rooms.
One can Of concentrated I've used once a
month for the small family and twice q
month where much dish washing is done
will do the work Of prevention.
This should be boiled in gallon Of
water until thoroly dissolved then poured
boiling hot into the sink with one turn Of
the kettle, 80 that the boiling purifier
will loosen every particular Of grease from
the inside of pipes and traps.
The "handy' man should be asked to lift
the kettle and deluge the sink with its
contents, as feminine arms are rarely
strong enough Care should be taken to
open the can at the soft end and the can
should go with the contents in to the
kettle. grs >a...~h .E'.-.. +

THE STATE MUSICAL FESTIVAL.

Those who have taken an active part in
securing the sale of a sufficient number
of seats to ensure the success OF the com
ing State music festival in Burlington, are
entitled to the thanks Of our people in
general. A musical event like that con-
lemplated and assured means not only
promotion of a higher standard Of musical
taste and culture in our community, but
Also the advancement of the interests Of
MI classes of our people.
That we are still in need OF work Of
Mis- character is indicated by the fact
that We are frequently levyins on our
ieiShborirg towns for singers in our local
,hurches. We have excellent musical in
.truction in our public and parochial
ichools. and we are sparing no effort in
he development Of local musical talent.
yet the demand for good voices keeps
ahead Of the demand. Those of our resi-
dents who may be inclined to feel that
work put into musical festivals is wasted
should therefore revise their opinions.
The local part of the work in prcpara-
zion for the state musical festival having
been provided for. it remains to awaken
interest in the project in neighboring COM
munitics. That our local managers will
have generous assistance in this direction
is evident from the following appreciated
comment taken from the columns of the
Rutland News:
1T is hoped that Rutland and all other
Vermont towns will properly and gen
erously show their appreciation of the
coming State musical festival in Burling-
ton. 1t should be considered n State in
rtitution and as such entitled to undivided
support. BY the way, one of the most
conspicuous features of the festival will
be Miss Marguerite Lemon, the soprano
who sings second to Calve IN Carmen
In Boston. Miss Lemon Il few years ago
lang ir a choir at North Adams. Mass"
If other cities that would naturally he
represented in the musical festival. show
q spirit similar to that manifested by the
esteemed News, the event will be a sue
cess of which the entire State may well
Ne proud.

STRIKE UNIMPORTANT.
Granite Cutters Union ia Not Uphold
the barclay Tool S~hnrpencrs.

Barre, April p.-The difficulty in the
granite business over the Prize tool
sharpening machine does not promise to
amount to much as the Barre Branch,
Granite Cutters National Union, will not
support the tool shapeicrs who are mem
bers of the union and who went out Fri
day. Yesterday, under advices from the
secretary of the national union. Jas. Dun
can of Washington, u. G.. the union
either supplied tool sharpeners or author
lied them to be hired. to take the places
of the men who went out the day be-
fore. 50 the business in Mayor Barclays
plant WAS resumed yesterday.
The tool sh%arpeners are members of
the Stone Cutters Union and are great
ly outnumbered. Three weeks ago the
union as n whole voted to accept a com
promise covering the Piric machine. The
terms of the compromise were not salts
factory to the s~harpeners, and at a sub
sequent meeting they refused to accept
the compromise. But the union proposes
TO stand by its agreement regarding the
machine regardless of the action of part
Ct its members.
