The Citizens Logic.
Reprinted by Request From the

The Albuquerque citizen has views
on the subject Of qualifications of
county school supcrntcndcnts which
deserve to be cmbalmed. As to its
opinion that 1t Is better 10 elect sup
crintendents than to appoint them
that is open to discussion, but we Will
pass it over to the somewhat start
ling announcement that it IS not only
not necessary that the superintendent
should have had experience as a
teacher. but that It is possible that
such experience might be a possible
drawback For instance, if he had
been an unfit, teacher. his experience
will be "A handicap in his work a.

What the Citizen really means it IL
Eliminates by this remarkable simile:
"T0 be good Judge of horse does
not require that the man shall have
had experience as a horse, nor TO be
good Judge of a teacher is 1t need
ful that one should have taught.
This lino, of reasoning leads us -
add that TO judge Of ihe proper quail
incations of a superintendent it is not
necessary that the judge should be an

New ThinQS for Nursery

A crawling rug is an addition 10 the
furnishings OF a nursery that Will afford
unlimited amusement to the baby so
fortunate as 20 have one given it.
The rug is made Of heavy dark stuff
while figures representing Mother Goose
rhymes or well-known fairy tales cut
out Of material of a contrasting color
arc appliqued on as a border.
A favorite set Of figures tells the
story Of "The House That Jack Built"
Across one end Of the rug is the house
itself, with its dove cote and a sign
post directing attention 20 il.
The other end and the two sides
are occupied by the bags OF malt, the
pat. the dog. the corn, the farmer and
all OF the other well-known- characters,
the name Of each appearing over il in
letters cut out OF the same material as
the figures.
Nursery tablecIoths Of a similar de-
sign are also being used. They are
made Of heavy cream linen, with fig
ures Of red.
The rugs are usually of heavy white
flannel with red figures, though some
times the ColOring is reversed, while
more serviceable ones are of red and
gray.
The idea was originated and carried
out by a clever young EngilSnWoman,
who not only makes the rugs and table
cloths complete, but does a thriving
business in supplying the little figures
In various col0Ts ready 10 buttonhole
on 70 the rugs
Another useful cOntrivance for TIE
baby's quarters is little portable bath
tub, which may be converted into a
comfortable cot.
1t is made of soft waterproof rubber
cloth that yields to every movement
OF the body and is as soft as velvet
to the touch. In appearance ii is ike
a little hammock slung on wooden sup
ports.
At one end is a rubber flap with
pockets for holding the sponge, soap and
other accomplishments OF the baby's
bath. and at the other a light rail is at
Iached for holding towels.
There is a small stopcock at one end
by which the water is let of after the
bath.
When not in use the tub folds up per-
fectiy fiat like a camp chair, no small
consideration for fiat-dwellers, and II
necessary it will serve p double pur-
pose, as II may be transformed into a
soft little hammock bed, from which

TIPS ON THE LATEST THINGS IN THE FASHION WORLD
Door Bell Philosophy

II is quite as important to know
how to answer the dOoTbeI as IL is TO
know how to ring IT,
Servants are apt 10 be quite neglect
full in this matter and at many houses
one can tell whether the mistress IS
home or not by the prOmptness or lack
OF promptness with which tie servant
comes TO the door
To be sure II isn't always possible to
respond instantly In houses where
where there is only one servant, she
may be engaged in kneading bread or
scrubbing the floors, and will require
a few moments to wash her hands and
adjust her clean apron. But servants
are not always the offenders in this
matter. II seems almost 10 amount 10 q
custom AT certain houses to keep one
standing on the doorstep no matter

eter down in the teens.

BlOOdStdInS on Sewing

How often IL happens that ones pretty
work IS marred by a bioodstain which
has been left by a pricked finger in the
most conspicuous placel And IL is very
apt TO be on something which one had
no intention OF washing for long while
If ever. There are two methods sf deal
ing with such spots, as blood is readily
removed by either one Of two processes.
II the article thus stained ~ washable,
make a lukewarm suds and dip each
spot in. But the water must be only
lukewarm, and II must have soap in il.

the spot Will only be set. and VIII be
very hard TO remove After the spots
have been dipped In this lukewarm
suds, soap may be rubbed on with i'm
punity, and VIII assist materially in the
work. The spots, after being wet
should be rubE~d between the thumbs
and fingers BY this means only a small
portion Of the goods is taken up and a
very small area is wet OF course. the
soapy spot should be put through clear
water two or three times before 1t is
pressed.
The second method Of removing such
stains is by means Of raw starch. Dis
solve starch in water, and when entirely
wet and settled TO the bottom or the
vessel with a knife take up some Of
this starch sediment and spread it on
the spot. When dry, scrape off. The

THE TIMBER SUPPLY

Every person in the United States is
using over six times as much wood as he
he would use if'he were in Europe. The
| country as whole consumes every year
between three and four times more wood
than all of the forests of the United States
grow in the meantime The average acre
oil forest lays up store of only 10 cubic
feet annually, whereas it ought to be lay
ing up at least 80 cubic feet in order to
furnish the products taken out of it.
Since 1880 more than roc, 900, ,0OO, ,OO0 feet
OF timber have been cut for lumber alone,
including $4,000, 600. 900 feet OF coniferous
timber in excess of the total coniferous
stumpage estimate of the census in 1880.
These are some of the remarkable state
ments made in Circular 81 of the Forest
Service, which deals with the timber
supply OF the United States and reviews
the stumpage estimates made by all the
important authorities. A study of the
circular must lead directly to the concIu-
sion that the rate at which forest products
in the United States have been and are
being consumed is far too lavish, aud that
only one result can follow unless steps are
promptly taken to prevent waste in use
and to increase the growth rate of every
acre OF forest in the United States. This
result is timber famine This country
is to-day in the same position with regard
to forest resources as was Germany 100
years ago.
