The Denison Bulletin in its usual
rabid and partisan manner opposes a
primary election law for Iowa which
compels all parties TO hold their
primaries on the same day. and asserts
that it is a dibolical plot to assassinate
the liberties of tree people. The
obvious purpose Of these bills is in fact
to enable the people to rule rather
than rings of politicians. ward heelers
etc Il is commonly believed thnt it is
hard T. to corrupt all the people than
part and b y for these reasons a law
which enables all voters to assist in
making nominations is an improve
ment over the present program The

is simple ard can be satisfactorily ac-
complished ~ any one who has artis-
tic skill. Arrange some basket forms
Of any desired pattern with pliable
copper wire and wrap them with

violets, ferns, geranium leaves-in
fact, any flowers except full blown
roses-and sink them in solution of
alum Of one pound to gallon Of wa
ter. Wait until the solution has cool
ed, as the colors will then be pre-
served in their original beauty, and
the crystallized alum will hold them
faster than When formed in hot solu-

allow 1t to drip twelve hours. These
baskets make unique ornament and
long preserve their freshness.

Birds Are aIathematicians.

The English naturalist, Morris Gibbs,
devoted years Of study to BIRDS nests,
their formation and their contents, and
asserts that birds lay their eggs in &C
cordance with geometrical lines, so
that every inch Of space is used to the
greatest possible advantage. Birds
which lay many eggs arrange them in
circles, the pointed ends turned to the
inside. Others, whose eggs are elliptic
ally shaped, place them in longitude
nal rows. If an egg is moved out of
Its original position by an intruder, 1t
will be found on the following morn
ing that the bird has returned it to its
first position. Among the numerous
and often difficult cases which Gibbs
made matter Of study, not one was
found which would not do credit to a
mathematician.
