Wall Paper.

One Of the most maddening things
about choosing wall papers is that
when one has at last found the right
thing it turns out to be an imported
paper at $3.50 or So roll. In many
other ways wall papers are unsatisfac-
tory. They add warmth and color and
cheer to rooms to which they are well
adapted, but they fade rapidly, soil
and mar easily and seldom last more
than three or four years without clam
0ring for renewal. Many Of the ultra
artistic echeW them altogether. There
are many good arguments to support
this position. though it is evident that
unless the walls are designed and spe-
cially prepared to serve without paper
there is much Of color and charm lack
ing in the room. Oliver Coleman IN

IT is ali right for the county board
to hold the sheriff and the district at
torney responsible for the manage
ment of the Wren murder case, but
the board should be willing to fur
nish the officials with what money is
needed to push, the investigation.
The man Wren was poor and friend
less, but it is just as much the duty OF
the county to hunt down and punish
his murderers as if the dead man had
been an influential citizen, and it will
be disgrace to the county if they are
allowed to escape.

The Evening Wisconsin points out
the fact that the men who are doing
ali the shouting about the low aver
age of teachers salaries are not the
ones who are entitled to receive the
benefits which may follow the agita-
ton of the salary question, and ex-
presses the hope that if school boards
are persuaded to raise salaries the in
creases will go to the poorly paid
teachers, mostly women, working in
the country districts. The Wiscon-
sin has the right idea and in the
struggle to raise the average"
which we hear so much about, the
teachers association should not lose
sight of this equally important point.
There are hundreds of poorly paid
women teachers doing faithful and
conscientious work under hard con-
ditions in the district schools through
out the state and they are the ones
who are entitled to the salary in
creases, not the we'll paid men in the
city schools.

THE trouble with the w. G. T. u.
and kindred organizations is that they
let their hearts rule their heads. 1t
may not be pleasant for them to ad-
nit that canteen is good thing for
the morals of the army, but on the
unanimous testimony of the officers it
is just that, and it is time that Cong
ress restored the canteen. Certainly
the testimony Of the officers as to
what is best for the army should have
greater weight with Congress than
the arguments of the leaders Of the
organizations opposed to the restora-
ton of the canteen. 1t is a case OF
practical knowledge against theory
that has been tried and found want

And the river congeals to the shore;
When the bowl smokes with some

Then is the time to remember the
