Mr. Maunsen admitted before a
committee of the council that he had
written out this proposition. Mr.. J. J.
Moller. on his oath, swore that Mr..
Maunsell had refused to sign this pro-
position until he had received word
from Anthony Brady. through Charles
K. Holiday, that Mo1ler was An
thony Brady's man. The truth of Mr..
Moller's affidavit is confirmed by the
admission of Holiday that he did wire
Anthony Brady asking who Moiler
was. Mr.. Maunsell is further en-
barrassed by the fact that he went to
Kansas City to see Mo1ler, and that
while there he telephoned to Charley
Holiday to find out whether he had
yet heard from Anthony Brady.
We have never believed and do not
now believe that the merchants who
are lending their names to the assist

with any knowledge of Ar. N.aunseil's

SUIT FOR $500, 600
A Phonograph Company Proceeds

volved has just been begun in this state
by the New York monograph company
against $40 dealers in monographs and
is for SO. 600, making the total amount
involved, SO. 400, 900.
The action grows out of long
standing litigation between the New
York Photographs and the National
Phonograph company representing the
Edison interests. The suit is based on
alleged violation of an agreement un-
der which the New York Photograph
company was to have the exclusive sales
rights in New York state of the Edison
monographs and supplies. The New
York company obtained a. decision in
the federal courts and is now suing
dealers for purchasing supplies from
the National company.

From Friday to Monday.

Record Herald from Omaha, Neb., says:

yesterday when he sentenced Jay

Bathroom Notes.

/
house that so well repays in salts
| factory appearance the systematic
care given to it as does the bathroom.
There is so much white surface to be
kept immaculate, and so much shining
surface to be kept shining. that every
bit of energy expended on it shows
for what it is worth.
1t is much better to keep the nickel
plated fixtures in good condition by
rubbing them often with little whit
ing and water and then polishing with
a dry cloth than by giving them an
occasional energetic securing with Il
paste or polish for metals. The former
takes but a few minutes, while the
latter not only takes time, but is hard
on the nickel-plating, much of which is
not of sufficiently good quality to
stand such a scrrfbbing.
One of the difficulties i'm keeping a
bathtub clean and spOtless is encoun-
tered in the yellow stains that are
caused by the dripping from the
faucets. These may be removed, how
ever, by rubbing them with a rag dip
ped in solution of three parts of
water and one part of Oxalic acid.
To keep these stains from reappear-
ing or from being constant annoy
ance the faucets should be carefully
looked after, and if the dripping is
persistent new washers should be put
in. Often the faucets are in good con-
ditiOn, but the water drips almost con-
Stantly because of carelessness in
turning it off.
Don't have too many fixtures and
conveniences in the bathroom. There
is such a thing as OVERRIDING the mat
ter. for the simple reason that they are
hard to keep clean. And the smaller
ones particularly are wonderful dust
collectors.
One Indispensable article, however,
is a brush for sc1'ubbing out the tub
lit is better to have one with a long
handle. Hang it in a convenient place
at the side of the tub, and if used
after each bath, the tub may easily be
kept sweet and clean.
a necessary bathroom adjunct, and
one that will do much toward keeping
it neat and clean looking, is a corner
cupboard. Here may be put out of
sight the bottles of ammonia, toilet
water, the bOraX, extra cakes of soap
and the other things that belong to
well-regulated bathroom. The cup
board will soon pay for itself in con-
venience and the saving of time and

A Chapter on Motherhood.

An elderly woman writing in WO-
mans Department of Home and Farm,
says she sees so little in print on the
subject of motherhood. She says:
1 know among my acquaintances
some children that have been reared
by wealthy parents with a good Op-
portunity to achieve something, who
turned out very ordinary: while there
are others born poor and obscure that
have overcome all obstacles. They
shine i'm the world among its brightest
gems. Some may call this fate or
Providence. while / think it birth. l
believe our mothers shape our destiny
to a great extent before we are born.
When l read the biography of some
great man or woman, | try to find out
all | can about the mother. L never
fail to find some great and noble traits
i'm her. If the father is sensible. sober
and honest and the mother will pre-
pare herself as she should. | think
the children will be what we wish
them to be.
In the first place, girl should not
marry until she is grown, until her
mind is developed, and then she should
control herself and observe tie rules
of health. If she is deficient herself
in the talent she would like her child
to possess and will study and practice
that one thing, i think the child will
acquire it,
1t is a sad sight to see children mar
ry, especially if they have been reared
in ignorance. for it is impossible for
them to realize the responsibility they
have taken on themselves. When we
are responsible for bringing a little
soul into this world we should be very
careful what we read. how we talk
and think. and whom we associate
with. for some act on our part NAV
forever ruin the destiny of our darling.
We should try to be careful and kind
and keep before our mind some high
ideal. | have heard that a boy never

and she has it before he is born. so if
is born in him. So if you want your
child to be spiritual, study that: if
literary, study that most; or any other
talent you would like it to have. do
your part and believe you will not be
disappointed.
Now, | haven't written this thinking
TO help the old and wise mothers. but
simply TO bring this mOmentous sub
Ject before this band of able writers
and hoping that l may help some
young, inexperienced mother.
Young women, this is worth study
