Water Hanging Plants.

Be sure that plants in hanging pots
and baskets get all the water they
need. Because they are near the cell
ing. where the temperature is much
higher than at the window sill, they
will dry out much more rapidly than
ordinary plants. They are also ex-
posed on all sides, and this accelerates
evaporation. l have a method of keep
ing these plants well watered which
works well. l take small can or cup
and punch holes in the bottom Of It.
Make these small at first until you
know Just how much water is needed.
Fill these vessels and place them on
the surface Of the SOIL Vines can be
SO trained as to hide them. Observe
the effect carefully. If not enough wa
ter passes through to keep the soil
moist, you will know that larger holes
are necessary. This matter can be reg
ulated to nicely with little expert
menting. Fill the cup each morning. A
treatment of this kind will enable any
one to grow fine hanging plants

Spirit in Seeking Homes.

The Waitsburg Gazette announces
that a campaign of publicity has
been started in that city for the pur-
pose of securing more builders of
homes. The local Improvement club
has received many letters from men
and women of the eastern states ask
ing for information about the soil,
climate and general farming condi-
tions. Such communications are CIV
en- to appropriate committees, ap-
pointed for the purpose of answering
the prospective home builders of the
west. There is no commercial mat
ter in the work, as the people fur
nish the information free and do not
offer lands for sale.
Waitsburg occupies one of the
most desirable locations of the great
granary of the Walla Walla valley.
1t is one of the ideal inland towns
of that section. Surrounded by fer
tile fields and excellent climate, it
is place that farmers can find
adapted to many purposes. The big
wheat fields may be divided and sub
divided until they make many in
tensive farming tracts. Then dairy
ing, market gardening and other
branches of small farming may in
Grease rapidly Situated near the
base of the mountains the country
has an abundance of pure water
which may be utilized for power and
more diversified agricultural pur-
poses.
The land boom has not disturbed
the people of Waitsburg to any great
extent. Farms may be had in that
district at very moderate prices. The
new tillers of the soil will not be re-
quired to advance large sums in or
der to get possession of homes. And
there are the possibilities of sugar
beet fields and the wheat ranches
and other sources of income to the
people. Transportation facilities are
good and the home and foreign mar
kets easily accessible. Homeseekers
will find one of the pleasant spots of
the state when visiting the country
tributary to Waitsburg.-P.-I.

Peeuliarities Of Liaht Hair.


Among the difficulties met by own
ers of light hair Is this: The center
and ends Of the hair shafts are light,
while toward the roots the shade y
decidedly darker. This makes the knot
disagreeably suggestive Of an artih-
cial addition that is badly matched. In
some cases this is caused by an exces-
sive secretion of oil. II that Is true,
frequent shamp0os-say once week
should keep the hair toward the roots
light and fluffy. To keep the hair from
growing brittle under such treatment
a good briIliantine or vaseline should
be rubbed lightly on the palms of the
hands; then gently stroke the. shafts,
taking a few strands at a time be-
tween the palms. Never allow the oil
to reach the scalp. There is one wom-
an whose light hair Is affected by
washing in quite different manner.
It seems that the bath, in washing
away all the oil, leaves the hair dull
and dry. The natural oil on her hair
Is what gives it its gloss. She ia
amused by the regular recurrence OF
the remark after u shampoo, "Why,
your hair Is growing darker" There
may be others that experience the
same results of shampooing, but the
former is the more common.

tested against his attitude. Later in
the session the bill submitting the
question of prohibition to the vote Of
the people of the state came up, and
again Mr.. Greever voted against 1t.
As the clerk announced that the vote
was tie sob from his wife decided
Mr.. Greever. He arose and annOunc-
ed that he changed his vote, and thus
the measure was adopted.
1t was thus the momentous question
was settled that made the state Of
Kansas the leader of all others in the
cause Of temperance as well as moral
ity In the Union, IL not in the entire
Christian world.
Then in a moment Mrs. Greever
found herself no longer the insignifi-
cant young woman who had day after

modest young bride was surrounded by
prominent men and brilliant women
who sbowered her with congratulations
until she was oyernowered with con-
fusion and knew not what to do, the
notorlety and prominence thrust upon
her being both confusing and obnox-
ious.
However. extremely important meas

so much attention that the incident
soon ceased to create comment and

Mrs. Margaret Virginia Greever Of
Emporia is known as the mother Of
Prohibition in Kansas. Twenty
eight years ago George Washington
Greever was elected member Of the
legislature Of Kansas from the county
Of Wyandotte. Just previous to his
election he had been married to Miss
Margaret Virginia Newland, who had
been born in Tennessee and whose
parents were pronounced Prohibition
lists and who had thoroughly inculcat-
ed their daughter with their radical
views on temperance.
Mrs. Greever sat by her husbands
side daily in the legislature. When
the first temperance measure came up
her husband voted against it. With
tears in her eyes the young bride pro-

many things to his credit. few pol
icies connected with the administra-
ton have resulted in more genuine
good than his habit Of talking out
loud, as they say in the vernacular.
Publicity seems to have been the
principle upon which he built his
aims and purposes. Publicity has
been resorted to by him to cure some
of the worst social and economic evils
Of the country. and It is not in the
least unnatural that he should now
invoke the same virtuous principle to
thwart one of the boldest political
conspiracies of recent times.
The president has not hesitated to
declare that he would take a hand in
the matter of naming the next Re-
publican candidate for president of
the United States because of the con-
spiracy entered into "by the richest
men in the country to defeat the
aims of his administration, and to
prevent the perpetuation of his pol
icies," and no doubt vast major
ity of the American people will sup
port his in the challenge he has thus
thrown down to his enemies. This
country has fallen upon evil days
if the people will tamely submit to
the conditions so freely discussed nv
the president. Anarchy and anar-
chists will not be without excuse If
money is to be corruptly used to de-
feat administrative policies demand
ed by the people of the country.
The choice of candidates in the
forthcoming contest, so far as indi-
viduals are concerned, is matter of
minor concern in comparison with
the colossal issue raised by President
Roosevelt's open charge that plot,
backed by an enormous amount of
wealth, is afoot to buy the presi-
dency, and to thus defeat many of
the wise policies which have marked
his administration of national af-
fairs. By exposing the conspiracy,
the president has put the American
people in position to check the
movement, and has, in this way, in
creased the obligations which his
cOuntrymen owe him.-P.-I.

4 UNIQUE CRITICISM.

Spirit Of War;" silently laid on his
colors of the scorching sun. and an In
dian chief, raised in his stirrups, shout
ing to his braves, inspiring them with
courage for the fight.
Remington had not heard knock
at the studio door or the entrance Of
an unannounced guest. Nor did he
realize that two sharp eyes were scan

nation characteristic Of the man who
knows ar"
Suddenly there burst from the visitor
such shout as any Indian chief
would have been proud of.
Another and another shout echoed
through the studio. Remington, start
ing back, dropped his brushes and pal
cite and turned in the direction of the
laundering voice.
"Ah, bah! My boy, open his mouth.
Make him shout. Make him look it.
Open his mouth. $685." And the
stranger gave vent to two more shouts
fit for the plains.
1t was Gerome, and this was his
method of expression in this special
case. Remington, in accordance with
his advice, "opened his mouth" and
as result, instead Of the slightly
parted lips, there is a face so full OF
enthusiasm, so expressive Of a great
heartfelt throb giving vent to cheer,
that when one sees the picture he is
prompted to the action Of Gerome.

THE STAGE KISS.
What It Really Means Rather Than
What II Seems to Be.

What 1t Really Means Rather Than
What II Seems to Be.
Stage kisses! No one but an actor
or an actress can fully appreciate what
they mean. The picture as presented
to the audience is very pretty, but the
vision which looms up before the eyes
of the poor player is something like
this:
A face covered with coating Of cold
cream, which has been powdered over
with thick layer of pearl white or
brunette powder, as the case may be-
On the cheeks are daubs of rouge,
which at that close range in no pos
sible manner suggest, as they do to the
audience, TIE rosy cheeks of country
lassie. Over the eyes Is rubbed a
little dark blue powder to make them
poetical The underliis are heavily
penciled, and mark extends a quar-
fer of an inch from the eye ut the
end. This makes them larger. Upon
each separate lash is a bead Of black
cosmetic, which has the eject Of max
ing them heavy and long. The cherry
lips, which to the audience the hero is
eager to press to his own, are to his
distorted vision at such close range
only a cash of carinine painted into q
Cupid's bow.
The actress sees before her picture
even less attractive, for ten chances to
one the hero, in addition to his grease
paint, wears a false mustache and is
also smelly" with tobacco. The glare
Of the footlights tones down this con-
glomerati0n Of paint, and at q distance
the faces are actually pretty. but upon
close inspection they resemble nothing

lose, and who are as well pleased
with Cashmere as Cashmere is with
them and when in their new home
they will be more at home in Cash
mere than ever.
Lumber is being hauled on the
ground for new residence for the
home of A. J. Amos on Paradise val
ley, miles up the Wenatchee
rivr. Mr. Amos is finishing setting
out 12-acre orchard this spring and
further improving a 20-acre tract of
land on the banks of the Wenatchee
river. The new station between
Cashmere and Peshastin has pfac-
tically been promised and will be To-
Gated adjoining his place. This part
of the Wenatchee valley is showing
