GLoRIFIED CARPET SWEEPER
Made Nowadays Of Glass as Well as
Of Many Fine Woods-Expert
Salesman Talks.

Didn't know there was such a
thing as a glass carpet sweeper!
Oh, my, yes" said the salesman.
"Been selling them now for some
years. Sides and ends of the body
of wood, with a glass top.
"The glass carpet sweepers arc
made only in the best quality, best
sort of brushes and works, and
with the wood part of the finest
polished mahogany and the glass
top a fine French beveled glass.
"What does anybody want of a
glass carpet sweeper? Well, we
use them to demonstrate with, to
show, yisibly, the operation of the
sweeper, and it is a very conven-
lent sweeper, on that account, to
the user. You cansee throughthe
glass top just when it needs emp
tying. And then it is a very hand
some machine-people buy it on
that account.
"But then we make no end Of
handsome carpet sweepers nova.
was, sweepers of every sort of
fine wood and beautifully finished,
and with handsome nickel mount
ings, and all that sort of thing;
very handsome carpet sweepers.
"And the carpet sweeper is no
longer kept universally in some
closet, as once it was. You can
buy sweepers now to match the
woodwork of any room, or any car
pet or rug. Ihave seen more than
one fine carpet sweeper with a
prettyribbon tied round its handle
standing in a corner, itself a sight
ly bit of furniture.
"Such a sweeper you might find
in a dining-room, handy there
with which to sweep up the
crumbs; or you might find one in a
library, a dainty machine with
which to sweep up scattered cigar
ashes.
ooh, yes, plenty of handsome
carpet sweepers made these days.
The carpet sweeper may now be
really a thing of great beauty, as
it has long been one Of literally
worldwide utility"

WAYS OF THE sIBERIANs.
interesting Phases Of Life Of These
People Are Told In Book N
That Country.

Some interesting phases Of 81
berian life are described in Sam
uel Turner's book on that coun,
try. OF the exiles he writes:
"WhenItoldaS iberianfriend that
I carried a revolver as a protec.
ton against wolves, l was prompt
~ informed that / had much more
reason to fear the human wolves I
mightencounter, andthis, I found,
was a general view of the case.
About one-third of the criminal
exiles escape all control. Armed
with a stick, to which is attached
a strong piece of cord or catgut,
they will approach the unwary
traveller from behind, throw the
cord round his neck, and quietly
strangle him by twisting the stick,
to rob him at their leisure of what
ever he may possess, or secure his
passport in order to make their
escape from the country"
Great is the butter-making Of
Siberia, and greater, says Mr..
Turner, it is to become-a region
that might supply half mankind
with butter. "There are, how
ever, peasants who, for one rea-
son or another, refuse to sell their
milk or to turn it into butter.
The owner of a farm not far from
the station of Tagai was asked by
a Danish friend why he did not sell
the milk from his 300 COWS to the
neighboring dairy. He replied
that his grandfather and his IA
Their had not sold milk before him,
and that he saw no reason why he
should do so; he was sure the
Lord would not like it,"
Here is a familiar picture which
the author saw from the Siberian
railway as he travelled on it, day
after day, across the sea of
steppes: eve often passed sledg-
es going in the same direction as
our train, and sometimes, when
the horses took fright at the en-
CINE, they maintained the same
speed as the train for consider.

NAMES DR.. ROBERTS
Gov. Davidson Names w aukesha Doctor
as State Official

Gov. Davidson has appointed DR..
David Roberts, of Waukesha, as state
veterinarian to fill out the unexpired
term of, DR.. E. d. Roberts, of James
vile, who died recently. The APP
pointeeis brother of the late DR..
Roberts.
DR.. Roberts has for years occupied
a conspicuous place among veteri-
narians. He has Travelled widely in
the practice of Ibis profession, and
through his efforts infections diseases
have been Stamped out from among
many valuable herds in all parts of
the country.
For generations back the Roberts
family has been interested in the
breeding and treating of live stock.
Twenty-Five years before any veteri-
nary collegeshad been established in
America, j. .P. Roberts, the grand
father of DR.. David Roberts, was en-
gagged to some extent in treating
horses and cattle. His father, John
M. Roberts, was we'll known stock
raiser, and farrier, his services being
IN demand even at the present time,
owing to this experience and good
judgment.
During the early part Of DR.. David
Roberts life he attended the district
schoo1Eand later entered Beloit col
lege. Returning from Be1oit he sue
cessfully managed his fathers stock
farm with its extensive milk interests
and side line of draft horses, hogs
and sheep. His great natural love of
stock persuaded him to enter Chicago
Veterinary college. In 1889 he was
graduated from the college and To-
Gated in Waukesha. While he has de-
voted his time to the general prac-
tice Of the veterinary science, still he
is eninently a cattle specialist, and
as such is more competent to handle
and treat the complicated diseases of
dairy cattle than one who has not
paid particular attention to this line
of work.

People interested in Keeping Of
kenosha City Cemetery Hold
Enthusiastic Meeting
GREAT INTEREST is SHOWN
Committee is Named to Complete the
Preliminary Work of Organiza-
ton and Second Meeting
Will be Held Soon

More than thirty Of the well known
people of the city interested in the
care of the Kenosha City cemetery
met at the court house Thursday
night to attend the meeting called at
the instance of Charles III. Conner
mann, which had for its purpose the
organization of a society to take
charge of the cemetery and care for
lit in the future. The attendance was
wholly preventative, and nearly all
of the old families in the city who are
especially interested III the cemetery
were represented. It was noticeable
fact that many of the earlier resi-
dents were present.
After the meeting had been called
to order, Attorney Peter Fisher made
a shorth address setting forth the
plans for organization and the design
of the association. He showed that
it was the plan to make an organiza-
ton under the state law which would
undertake the perpetual care of the
cemetery.
He explained at length the legal
status of the association and showed
that with such an association it would
be possible for any owner of a lot in
the cemetery to make preparations
for its perpetual care by placing some
sum of money in the keeping of the
association. After the purposes OF
the meeting had been stated, Frank
Slosson was elected temporary chair
man and Charles c. Brown temporary
secretary.
The plans we're discussed at some
length by different people present
after which it was decided to appoint
committee of six to make plans for
the permanent organization. This
committee as named consists OF z. G..
Simmons, c. H. Gonnermann, f. H.
Lyman, Peter Fisher, John M. Kehior
and Mrs. William w. Strong. This
committee will meet during the week
and suggest name for the associa.
ton and report at meeting to be held
at the court house on next Thursday
evening. At that time the permanent
organization will be completed and
officers elected. 1t is thought that il
will be an easy matter to secure
several hundred members for the
association when it has been properly
incorporated under the state law.
Many people who have taken .
great deal of interest in the proposed
organization could not be present al
the meeting Thursday evening bur
they had notified Mr. Gonnermanr
that they would aid in the work as
soon as the organization was com
pleted. It is planned to have the
association reg ular stock company
and the directors elected by the stocl
holders will have entire charge Of The
work.

EXPECT A BIG VOTE
Social Democrats Are Making
an Active Campaign Through
out the State This Fall
THEY NOW FEEL ENCOURAGED

The Social Democrats are making
thorough canvass of this state and
are getting more encouragement
pecially in towns having aElarger per-
centage of the working classes-than
they ever have received.
Winfield s. Gaylord, the Social
Democratic candidate for governor,
while in Marshfeld this week, re-
ceived encouraging reports as to the
increase in the vote which the Social
Democratic party will have in that
city.
Mr.. Gaylord says that similar re-
ports are being receivedsfrom all parts
of Wisconsin and he looks for large
increase in the Social Democratic
vote in the state this fall.
The large number of legislative
nominees which the Social Demo
cratic party has in the field is aiding
the Social Democratic situation con-
siderably in effecting strong local or
CARNATIONS, and the Social Demo
cratic leaders think that they will go
into the campaign this fall with a
stronger organization than ever be-
fore in the history of the party.
According to Mr.. Gaylord. great in
terest is also being shown in the or
ganization work Of the Social Demo
cratic party in the agricultural dis
tricts OF the state, and he declares the
vote in these districts will be heavier
than ever before. The efforts of the
SocialgDemocrats will be directed in a
great degree to increasing, if pos
sible, their presentation in the leg
islature, and great dealof attention
will be paid to the districts in which
the Social Democratic leaders believe
they have a show for success.
Although they decline to announce
the districts which they expect to
carry, the Social Democrats conf
IDENTIFY hope to have a representation
of from ten to fifteen members in the
next legislature.

People at Twin Lakes Arrange to
Dig Canal to Connect Lakes
With Nippersink Greek
Navigable Waterway Will Connect the
Lakes With Richmond, ILL.,, and
Offer Place for the Use of
Steam and Motor Boats

Plans have been completed for the
digging Of a canal a mile and three
quarters in length to connect the
south end Of Twin Lakes and Nipper-
sink creek at Richmond, ILL., The
money for the building of the canal
has been raised and the right of way
for it secured, and it is planned to
start the work in the very near FIJI
ture. The canal will pass through land
owned by three men, and two Of these
men have consented to give the right
of way for the waterway without
money or price.
The canal will be great thing for
Twin Lakes, and it is thought that it
will make the lakes one of the great
est places in this part of the country
for summer resorts. The canal will
make it possible to go by steamer
from the Twin Lakes railway station
to Richmond, Ill, and this will be an
ideal trip for the resorters. It will
furnish them splendid waterway for
the running of motor and steamboats,,
and this fact alone will attract many
Chicago people to the lakes.
The canal will be of value not only
as an Improvement Of property to be
used as a summer resort, but it will
greatly enhance the value of farm
land in different parts of the town Of
Salem. 1t is claimed that with the
canal hundreds of acres of land which
are now practically worthless will be
reclaimed and put under the pillow.
The canal will offer place for drain
age of all this land and the farmers
will be able to do the draining at a
minimum cost.
The canal will cost in the neighbor-
hood of $1,000, aud the money has
already been provided. The big ice
companies interested at Richmond
and Twin Lakes have made contribu-
tious ranging from a thousand to FIVE
hundred dollars, and the owners Of
resorts at Twin Lakes have made lib
eral contributions to the fund. 1t is
expected that great boom will follow
the building of the canal and already
plans have been made to subdivide
certain lands along the shores of the
two lakes to be used for summer re-
sort property. More than forty cot
tages have already been built along
the lakes by Chicago people, and it is
thought that the number will be
doubled year after the canal is fin.
ished. Of course the building of the
canal will not be an engineering prop
osition similar to the building of the
Panama canal, but it will furnish a
nice problem for the engineers.
1t is expected that the work of dig.
ging the big ditch will require much
of next year, but it is planned to have
it open before the close Of the resort
season in 1907
