Housewife who Looks After
Her 0wa Linsn.

Washing day Is justly dreaded in the
heat Of summer, when all work is q
double burden TO the ilesh. Anything
that lightens the work is. therefore. es-
pecially welcome. bue though the tools
Of to-day are superior 10 those OF our
grandmothers. modern invention has
done comparatively little to tighten the
labors of the laundry. In spite OF the
cost OF washing machines and the rep
reseniations Of their agents. a perfor-
ated zinc rubbing board is still the
most useful tool that good lanndress
can command says Prairie Farmer
Home Magazine.
One OF the most important parts Of
washing is the asserting OF the
clothes. There are many stains. which,
Ike thoEe Of perspiration. disappear
magically with a little cold water and
soap, and others, Ike fruit and cof-
fee. which must be treated with boil
ing water. but are permanently set by
lukewarm water II Il is the practices
Of the family TO soak all the clothes
in cold water before the washing has
begun, a great many stains viii be
permanently set; but II the various
kinds OF stains are carefully sorted cut
and properly treated hours OF rubbing
will be saved.
A housakeeper whose clothes always
look as white as the driven snow says
that II is best to soak coarse clothes in
cold water. but the table linens and
fine clothes need not be so treated.
The same housekeeper says that az
soon as she has removed the stains
from her clothes she puts them In
cold water In the boiler and brings
them 10 the boiling point. and then
puts them in the washtub TO be rubbed
for the nrst time. The boiling starts
the dirt. and the rubbing is much cas-
Ter than It would otherwise be. After

DEATH OF NOTED HAWAIIAN
Robert wilcox, First Of Ills Race In
Aaaeriean Congress. and OF
Royal BIOod.

Robert Wilcox, ex-congressiOnal del-
egate from Hawaii. died lately of con-
sumption.
Wilcox was the home rule candidate
for sheriff. and was in the midst OF an
active campaign. Oyerexertion brought
on hemorrhages. There Is great
mourning among the natives, with
whom, owing TO his Hawaiian blood,
Wilcox was very popular. says a spe-
cial to the New York Times.
Robert William Wilcox was born in
Honuaula. island OF Maui. one OF the
Hawaiian group, February l6. 1856.
His father was a native Of Newport,
K, l., and his mother was pure ma
tive OF Maui. who was a descendant OF
q bsosasr Of King Kaulahea, who
reigned over Maui about 1900.
Wilcox, after being trained at the
common schools OF his native island.
was sent TO the Royal Military acad-
emy. at Turin. Italy. where he stud
led from 1881 TO 1885. being graduated
and becoming a sub-lieutenant in the
Italian army. In 1885 he entered the
Royal Application School for In
gineer and Artillery oficers. at Turin.
and In 1887 was recalled by the Ha-
waiian government.
In 1880 he was elected to the leglsla-
ture as representative from Wailuku,
island of Mauri, In 1890 from Homo
lulu. and in 1892 from Koolauloa. is
land OF Oahu. Wilcox led two reyolu-
tions In Hawaii, one on June 30, 1889.
and the other in January, 1895, prin-
cipally TO restore Queen Liliuokalani.
He failed in both.
In his former attempt he was tried
and acquitted by a jury OF HIS coun-
trymen because the king was also a
factor In IT, In the latter he was sem
fenced 10 death by court-martial. but
the United States congress interviewed.
and the sentence was commuted 10 SO
years Imprisonment al hard labor and
a fine OF $4,000.
In January. 1896. be was given a
conditional pardon by President Dole,
and In 1898 full pardon. November
6, 1900. Wilcox was elected as an IN
dependent home rule republican del
egate from Hawaii to the Fifty-sixth
congress.
Wilcox was the FIRST delegate chosen
from Hawaii to the United States con-
gress lie was defeated for the fifty
eighth congress by Jonah Kuhio Ka-
lanianaole.
His autobiography. written for the
Congressional Directory, furnished
amusement at the time. In part Il
read:
"Mr Wilcox was an indefatigaDle
aud fearless leader for his country
men; he led two principal revolutions
against the oppressors OF his people
one on July 80, 1889. and the other In
January. 1895. principally TO restore
Queen Lllluokalani He failed in both
ON account of not having proper arms
TO support the movement In his for.
mer attempt he was acquitted By a
jury Of his conntrymen, because The
king was also a factor in It: In ghe
latter he was sentenced to death by a
court-martial Of the Dole oligarchy,
but the United States congress inter
vened."

The artists belonging to the Berlin

The artists belonging to the Berlin Secession society have concluded not to take part in the German art exhto~ it at the St Louis exposition, says the editor of Golfers. Their action, which seems to be final, is primarily protest against the selection by the German government of jurors known to be hostile to the movement. among the younger artists. Indirectly it is also protest against the repeated ar- bitrary interference by the kaiser in art matters This means that num- Der of Germany's foremost painters and sculptors will be unrepresented at St Louis, and that the entire space allotted to that country will be filled by the works of older men who have kept their art within the narrow con- fines of academical tradition. This is the more deplorable because of the contrast furnished by other countries. Not only will the art Of every civil- ized nation be represented, but the contending schools, the champions of the old ana the new, seem to have buried their differences temporarily in order to present 8 united front to the rest of the world.

BUNNY HAS. NO SHOW
Hunting with Monographs Is the
 Latest Sporting Fad.
Machine Initiates the squeal<s and Whines of a Ferret and All the
 Nimrod Has to Do Is to Pop Game Over.

There is an unwritten law in the For lake country against the shooting of un- fortunate ducks that are frozen fast in the ice, just as there is a written law against chasing the rabbit out of his warm burrow or brush heap by means of the squeaking ferret. And thereby says the Chicago Tribune. Squire Otto Muehrcke has done a good deal of work in past years in clearing friends charged with the violation of the rabbit-ferret code especially.
 Think of it!'' has been one of the arguments of the squire. "Only last win ter 1t took 12 hours for the defense to get jury, which finally decided for the prisoner: Well, we can see why man should be fined for catching mess of perch through the ice Now, when it takes that much time for such a case. what am to do?"
 As a result. in connection with rabbit shooting and the use of ferrets, a Chica- go friend of the squire has solved the difficulty for the present winter. though increasing his own field equipment thereby.
 HE 4llCuO, WAO lS AOAu SA A1f~0is shooting. has pen of ferrets at home. Also he has a talking machine of un- questioned accuracy and purity of tone. The rest has been easy.
 Tn hunting the rabbit with the real thing in past years the most effective portion of the ferret is it's squeak. The 1.-the, rattish little animal squeaks at a touch, and it continues it's serpentine squirmings in the hand to the music : of note pitched close to that of a slate pencil on second grade school room slate Between the squeak and !. the squirm and the suggestions of@harr teeth no mere novice would hunt rabbits with ferret anyhow; it is too much like chasing them with a pet rattIesnake But the type of man who isn't afraid to try to feel thes wind from a buzz saw with his fingers occasionally takes to the

Although the republican stand patters" have not budged from their position on the tariY-trust question, which is that 1t is inadvisable to dis turb the graft of the trusts by low ering the duties that protect them dur, ing presidential campaign, and when the "fat-frying' process is, the, only resort for big campaign fund, yet. from the way they twist and squirm, it is evident that the position of the stand -patters" is getting very uncomfortable So great has the pressure for lower duties become that two republican senators have actually introduced bills to put important ar ticles on the free list. Senator Lodge has introduced bill to put hides. and Senator Warren one to put boots and shoes on the free list Nobody knows better than these two senators, says our Washington correspondent, that reyenueproducing or reducing bills are out of order in the senate, unless they come from the house; both have acted ill this childish way simply and solely to still the voices of the people in Massachusetts and Wyoming. Both senators winked at each other while introducing their buncombe bills Senator Warren's bill was to offset Lodges. Senator Warren probably did not know that four-fifth of the boot and shoe manufacturers of New England have asked for free hides, and have expressed willingness to have the duties on boots and shoes taken off, if necessary, to obtain free hides. Hence Warren's bill, if enacted with Lodges, would not spite Massa. chusetts "a little bit.' If both bills could be introduced in the house and could become Jaw, the leather trust would not continue to sell leather to foreign manufacturers 10 per ceht be- low what ours have to pay, and the cost of making boots and shoes here would be reduced about 8 per cent

KsepiMs Near to chtIdhood.

Older people are not so far away from childhood as they sometimes like to imagine. Often we find it easier to get near to the child's heart if we acknowl- edge how near we are to him in weak ness and ignorance. We can often in- crease our store of knowledge, as well as our good influence over child, if we study with him some of the things which make him so enthusiastic. It is privilege and duty to instruct chi1- dren. But it helps us wonderfully in gaining the friendship of a child if we look sometimes into his eyes when he questions us, and say: Little one. don't know. Perhaps we can find out together" We ought know more than children know, but since the num- ber of things knowable is infinite, we cannot have less to learn than children have. A good teacher is always an ca ger learner. Detroit Free Press.
