Washington, D. c., July 29.-This is
the season of the year when the gov
eminent of the United States is III
the hands of chief clerks and bureau
chiefs. During nine months OF tie
year these officials are merely moths
that futter about the flame of great
ness. Come the dog days, and To-,
they themselves, burst forth into flame,
about which other moths must f1utter.
The chief clerk and the bureau chief
have not had their full share of glory
the present summer, because some of
the department heads are still detain.
ed in Washington by the press of i'm
portant business. Another spell of
scorching weather, though, like the
one we had two weeks ago, will send
these cabinet ministers scurrying to
mountain and seashore, and the reign
of the subordinate will be complete.
In each of the nine great depart
ments there is at least one, and in
most cases two or three, assistant sec
retaries whose duty it is to take the
place of the absent department chief.
This arrangement would work beau
tifully were it not for the fact that an
assistant secretary doesn't like swell
tering heat any better than full
fledged cabinet member, and there
generally is important business that
takes him away from Washington in
July and August.
Now, the chief clerk Of bureau chief
just dotes on heat, especially if it en-.

But, then, the Maine senator is old
and very rich. A younger statesman,
with ambitions before him, would not
have dared say so much, for the aver
age department clerk is good deal OF
a politician
Early in the present year an execu-
tive order was issued denying clerks
the privilege of using the telephones
in the departments, except for official
business they could neither call
friends on the outside nor answer
friends calling them. Division chiefs,
bureau chiefs, and officials on up the
scale used the phone whenever and for
whatever they pleased, and naturally
the clerks felt there was unfair dis.
elimination And just as naturally,
they kicked.
And now the kick has borne fruit.
in at least one department. Secretary
Metcalf this week issued an order that
any employe Of the department Of
commerce and labor could use the
phone for important private business
by paying toll at the rate of 21s cents
swered 50 long as the privilege was
not abused. The plan Is to apply
equally to all, from the secretary down
to the charwoman-who ever wants to
use the official telephones for private
business will have to pay the exact
amount each outgoing call costs the
government And just to show that
the department clerk iss,not the wholly
unreasonable being he has been paint
ed, he has hailed this as just about the
fairegt order ever issued by a depart
ment head touching the privileges of
clerks. They are glad, they aver, to
reimburse the government for the cost
of telephoning. but they objected to be-
ing shut up like convicts and denied
the privileges of communicating with
the outside world. The plan is so emf
nently just that 1t is believed other de-
partment heads will follow the exam
pie of Mr.. Metcalf

Mr.. Cortelyou is one of the hardest

Hints for the Housewife.

For hot hands.-The following To-
ton will prove very beneficial when
the hands perspire too freely and be-
come uncomfortable in consequence.
Take ten grains of fannie acid, half
an ounce Of simple tincture of bezoin,
two ounces of elderflower water and
three ounces of rosewater. This mix
ture should be used on the hands,
and the result will be that they will
remain fresh and cool.
Invisible Patches on Curtains
Cut piece of the required size out
of an old one and dip it in starch,
then press it on the curtain with a
hot iron, and you will have the de-
fective spot we'll mended until
washing day for it comes round
again. Do not iron your curtains.
for ironing breaks the threads. In
stead. mangle and shake them out.
any creases which remain will soon
disappear when they are hung up.
Cleaning Gilt Frames.-Water
should never be put on gilt frames.
They should be wiped with dry cloth
or chamios. This applies to all
metals and laquered goods. After n
laquered bed has once been wet and
polished it must be continually pol
ished. so the best plan is to keep 1t
dry as long as possible. Reaches are
deadly enemies of mirror backs, and
yearly ruin many thousands. For
this reason the old silver-backed mir
ror is passing away. and the new ones
are coated with composition that is
proof against insects, but that does
not give as fine reflection as the
other sort.
Keeping Irons Clean.-When irons
became rough or smoky. lay a little
fine salt on a fiat surface and rub
them we'll. It will prevent them
sticking to anything starched and
make them smooth. A piece of fine
sandpaper is also a good thing to
have near the stove. or hard.

TEA A PREVENTIVE.
British Surgeon Finds Germs Cannot
Abide the Soothing Beverage.

NEW YORK, Dec. 19.--Tea Is a
preventive of typhoid, it has Just
been announced in England. The
discovery is made by Major J. G
Mcknight. a surgeon in the British
army who acquaints the medical
profession in America with the par
ticulars of his experiments.
He finds that the typhoid germ. in
nure culture. becomes greatly dimin-
ished in numbers nv an exposure Of
four hours to the beverage. After
twenty hours 1t was impossible to
recover at all from the cold tea. He
recommends the use of cold tea as a
substitute for water in soldiers cam
teens during active service. Even
when water is sufficiently sterilized
it is likely to become infected after
sterilization. and bottles which have
once been filled with contaminated
water are capable of transmitting
tllp 1H1eCtlOH lDT ID lOHS Llult.
Major Mcknight suggests that
everybody drink tea. If prepared
in a proper manner tea, according to
physicians. constitutes a refreshing
and not harmful beverage. for 1t is
the tannin and other extractivities,
which are drawn out only after con-
tinued steering, which are product
i've of harmful consequences. Boiled
tea gives a copperv coat to the stom-
ach and a saffron hne to the face.
RI employed in the manner indi-
Gated. in localities where typhoid is
known to be present. tea NAV thus
serve as one OF the essential pre-
cautionarv measures to guard
against infection by this dread dis
ease.
