difficulties

Since Quay died, the National Con-
gress has been without an Indian
Senator Now the want has been
supplied by Kansas. Representative
Charles Curtis, who is to take Sen
ator Benson's seat. which Benson
took in succession TO Burton last
year, is the Indian. His mother was
of the Kaw tribe quarter blood
mis- father an army officer. Quay
boosted that he had been adopted
into the Cherokee tribe. and kept
Indian bonnets and blankets on the
walls of his room as a visible token
of his right to frame Indian legisla-
ton in the Senate. The Cherokees
modesty RETAINED from talking about
Quay. There have been two types
of Indian" statesmen at Washing
ton. not to speak of Tammany. One
is the Quay and Warren and Teller
type which couldn't bear to see the
red brother use land fort hunting
and grazing that might yield large
profits to white oil operators, coal
miners, on numbering corporations.
This in spite of the fact that the land
had been guaranteed TO the Indians
by eopper-riveted treaties and agree
ments. Their work has been to loosen
rivets and 'jolly" toe Indians. Cur
It's is of the other species. Next to
the late Senator Dawes of Massachu-
sets, he has originated more con-
lstructive Indian legislation than any
man in Congress who has mad to deal
with the modern indian problem. In
Kansas they say that the railroads

any rate are CAD to see the railroads

ed turtle. His wife, who accompanied
him all the way in a rowboat, res
cued the captain.
Oldrieve left Cincinnati January l.,
at noon on a wager that he would
walk to New Orleans in forty days.
At the fails above Louisville he was
delayed for twenty-four hours, and

French Humor.
ssssssssssssssssssassas

Often French humor is of the
merely absurd sort, like much of our
own. Thus it was a French courtier
who said of man famous for ODE
sity that ne found him sitting all
around a table by himself. That is
really better than our modern Ameri-
can jest on the approaching fat man.
Here comes a crowd"
Even more American in character
is the remark of the boasting Gascon,
that man boxed him on the ear
he was buried the next day.
Here is a French joke that is rath-
err English in character: The Mar
quls de Favieres, notorious for his
impecuniosity, called on a man OF
means named Barnard, and said:
Monsieur, I am going to astonisn
you. l am the Marquis de Favieres
| do not know you, and ] come to
borrow five hundred louis"
Monsieur, Barnard replied. Il
am going to astonish you much more
I know you, and l am going to lend
them"
Yet the typical French story always
has sting in it, like the famous one
of the wife who died, which has gone
over the world in varying guise. In
the village of Potion a woman fell
into a trance. After the Poitevin
custom, she was wrapped in a sheet
to be carried to the cemetery; but as
the procession was passing through
narrow road thorn of the waysid,
pierced the sheet, wounded her SC
that the blood flowed, and she awoke
Fourteen years later the woman real
ly died, and again was borne towards
the crave. AS the proc ssion passed
through the narrow road, the hus-
band called:

so near the hedgel"

RUBBER
SUCCESSFULLY INITIATED BY A
FORT DODGE GIRL.
Telephone Operator With Inventive
Turn of Mind Hits the Trust
Blow.

Fort Dodge, Ia, Feb. 1e.-What
promises to be practical solution
of the rubber trust problem has been
solved by Miss Belle Newland, a pret-
ty telephone girl of this city, who has
been granted a patent in the United
States and leading foreign countries
on chemical composition which can
not be told from genuine Para rub
Der. Miss Newland has been work
ing in secret on her composition for
over a year and at last has perfected
it after many vexatious obstacles.
Limited means and facilities for her
work has retarded her progress in
perfecting it, but the severest tests
have proven her product
Miss Newland is of an inventive
turn of mind and every spare moment
for several years past has been en-
ployed in working on some new In
vention. An of her ideas have been
of the most practical turn and her in
genuity has been repeatedly demon
strated. A few years ago she per-
fected bottle, which, when the stop
per was extracted, the bottle was de-
stroyed so far as using it again for
practical purposes, but failed to Sc
cure a patent. Since then she has
perfected several articles of house
hold use. but none of them compare
in practical and commercial value
with her latest achievement.

Caring For Mems Clothes.

There is no cleaning fluid that I
have ever had any experience with
that equals gasoline as a clothes
cleaner, but it is very explosive and
care should be taken not to use it
near a fire or light. The safest way Is
to use it in the open air. To avoid
the unsightly circle that often ap-
pears when a grease spot has been
removed, the cloth should be rubbed
lengthwise and with the weave, and
the rubbing should be continued un-
til the cloth is perfectly dry. Honey,
molasses or any sticky substance may
be removed by rubbing with slightly
diluted alcohol. A coat, vest or pair
of pants that are not much soiled, will
come out of a good gasoline bath
looking almost like new. First,
brush and shake the garment until
it seems perfectly free of dust; then
remove the spots and put the gar
ment in a bucket and pour enough
gasoline over it to saturate it thor
oughly, then cover the bucket to keep
the fluid from evaporating, and leave
it for two hours. Press and squeeze
as much of the fluid out as possible,
then hang the garment over the line,
and it will need no ironing. When a
garment is much soiled, the best way
to get it clean again is to remove
the spots and wash the garment
through a strong suds to which a
tablespoonful of borax has been add
ed, and a little of the borax should
be added to the rinsing water, as it
will not only soften the water, but
will brighten the color Of the goods.
The buttons should be removed and
the buttonholes basted together be-
fore washing, and if the sleeves and
pant legs are worn around the edges,
rip cut the hens and turn them up
far enough to conceal the worn part,
and run skirt braid on the under
Meath side, and the garment will look
much nicer when finished FLORIDA

Salads

The use of salads prepared from
tender plants and vegetables is to
be encouraged, as tender vegetables
are among the most healthful foods
to be hal. While they may not be
very nourishing in themselves, they
contain salts, which are very excel
lent correctives, and these salts are,
in many cases, changed or destroyed
in cooking. Salads made of raw veg
etables contain an alkaline salt which
is of the greatest value In all skin
disease. Such foods are appetizing,
and the oils used with them are nour-
ishing if not killed by too much vine
gar, pepper, and like seasonings.
Green foods are excellent for clogged
liver.-The Commoner.
