OUT OF BUSINESS.
The State Barber Board Closes Up
Shop.

The state barber board has cashed
in its chips and quit business, since
the legislature legislated it out of ex-
istence. The old barber board could
not keep its accounts straight and got
them so muddled that the state ac-
cOuntant had to Straighten them out
1t turned several hundred dollars into
the state treasury, however, when it's
members resigned, besides turning
$3.50 over to the new board to start in
with The new board went to the
other extreme. 1t kept its accounts
so accurately that it collected exactly
$500 in addition to the $3.50 it in
herited from the old board, and its
expenses and per diem amounted to
exactly $3.50 in two months.
There were three members of the
board, N B. NcCammon of Hutchin-
son, Roy Harmon of Topeka, and w.
NJ. Stevenson of Pittsburg- They kept
their accounts so accurately that they
made the total, including their per
diem, come to exactly $3.50, the exact
amount of money they received.
There are probably something over
themselves for paying up promptly
for examina tions and licenses. Now
that the barber law has been repealed
the rest of the BARRIERS in the state will
not have to pay up, and those that
have paid have some licenses that are
not worth anything. FOrty-three bar
bers paid IS for being examined by
the board and one man paid a balance
of three dollars that he owed the
board. There are 2S2 BARRIERS who
paid one dollar each for renewing
their licenses, making a total of ex-
actly $500 all told.
There was very little work connect
ed with issuing new licenses to bar
bers who had already been examined.
so that the principal work the board
had to do was in examining the 43 new
applicants.

In one block on Ohio street there are Il
cases of the disease. These mostly are
students and members of the faculty of

cases is that of Edward Barto. associate
professor in chemistry in the university,
also a member of the faculty of the Kan

assistants in the chemistry department of

chief cause.

SMOKE PROOF

The feed door on this stove is guaranteed smoke
proof and does away with the escape of smoke SCOT
and gas into the house Side feed doors used on
other stoves discharge a cloud of gas and sootlad-
ened smoke into the house and scatter SCOT and
ashes over the carpet when opened.
Another point: In feeding coal into a side feed
door it has to be thrown into the stove, which
usually results in scattering much of it over the
floor With clearly smoke proof feed door
the coal is poured into the stove even to the dust
in the bottom of the hod without a particle being
spilled on the floor.
This clean and economical stove burns the gases
which often escape into the rooms with other
stoves. The annoyance and dirt from kindling
fires is dispensed with, as the rooms are heat
ed up for two three hours each morning with
the fuel put in the night before and the Fire is
Never Out. COLES ORIGINAL HOT
BLAST is the cleanest stove made and will more
than save its cost in fuel each winter

Home Again.

The bear killers have returned!
John E Richards and VIM. Martin
have returned to Kennewick from
their CORY exploits amid the snowy
wilds Of the Blue Mountains in
eastern Oregon. Both report a
successful trip but neither have
been caught soliciting orders for
vension or bear skins.
Luke Walsh did not join the
party as at first intended. This
was regretable as Luke has an Al
reputation as bear fighter. When
a boy in northern Wisconsin he
used to trap and kill enough bears
to keep the settlement in meat, te-
sides supplying himself with cir us
money from the sale Of the peits.
Parties who have never seen Luke
and full-grown grizzly engaged
in mortal combat have missed a
fine sight.

and Bill says that John did it. TIE
appetites displayed by both hunters
upon their return did not substan-
tate the claims of either party.

intention of getting as far from the

liar with the ASH pan method, and have, no doubt
gone through the process many times of spreading
a newspaper cloth under your stove every time
the over-hlled pan is removed.
The ash pan is not only dirty, but is great evil
in stove construction. 1t adds door and joints
which can be made only temporarily alright by
the use of stove putty. These joints open after
few weeks use, rendering ash pan stoves worthless
as fire keepers. 1t makes them fuel-eaters rather
than fuel-savers. The ash pan and the shield for
guiding ashes into the pan, also prevent base heat

guaranteed to remain always alright.

Coles Original Hot Blast is the cieanest

Coles Original Hot Blast is the cieanest
stove ever placed on the market. Our method
of removing ashes shown by cut No. l, is per-
fectly clean and overcomes the many objections
to the ash pan used in other stoves. The elbow
draft casting with its upward slant allows the
empty coalhod to be set under the draft SO that
no ashes or Goals can be spilled on the floor. Our
patented dustless ash cover shown by illustration
is furnished free with Nos 122 152, 1872 and
1876 stoves. 1t keeps down every particle of dust
in removing ashes, a feature that will be ap-
preciated by every tidy housekeeper

are usually over filled when removed, and the ashes
