Discordant PInnN.

Each one intent upon his own plans,
and regardless OF cooperation with the
others, the three Department COM
manders moved their troops about in j
way that invited attack in detail. Gen
Fremont had about $4,000 movable
men, and started from the Cheat River
positions to advance upon Stanton and
the rear of Richmond. May his ad-
vance brigade, under Milroy, reached
the Shenandoah Valley at Mcdowell,
about 40 miles from Harrisonburg,
where Gen. Banks was. AT Harrison
burg Gen. Banks had two divisions,
numbering $4,000 meI. His duty was

No College Presidency.

Until recently, some one bobbed up
every few months with remarks about
Mr.. Roosevelt becoming President OF
Harvard University. his alma mater.
But there have been at least two obsta-
cles to that One is the good health and
continued mental capacity of Charles
W. Eliot, who has been the esteemed
President of the University for many
years. and the other is the diSapproVal
by the Harvard corporation, that elects
presidents, of Mr.. Roosevelt. Finally.
Mr.. Roosevelt demonstrated that there
was another obstacle-his own disin-
clination to accept the post were it ten
dered him. This was virtually an
nounced by him a few months ago in
the course of a somewhat unpleasant
occurrence, during which DR.. Walcott,
Chairman of the Harvard Corporation,
gave out an interview stating that Mr..
Roosevelt could not be elected Presi-
dent of Harvard, because he was not
the kind of man Harvard alumni
wanted at the head of the institution.
AS a most eminent Nimrod Mr..
Roosevelt will continue to figure in af-
rairs. If ex-President Cleveland's life

velt Mckinley was not very ardent
sportsman. Harrison hunted some, but
not often.
When Harrison left the White House
in 1898 he resumed his practice of law
and made a handsome sum during the
few remaining years he lived. He was
one of the great lawyers of the country
when he was elected President, and
his four years of service in the White
House enabled him to command still
larger retainers than ever. Once or
twice he came down to Washington
as an ex-President to appear before
the Supreme Court in cases in which
he had been retained. Ex-President
Harrison was able to earn sufficient
money to maintain himself and fam

President and was able to do it easil;'

to practice law in New York after his

Kitchen surRestionr.

Here are some good suggestions for your kitchen: Have your shades and sash curtains of white muslin that can be laundered. When using your gas stove ill the summer cover the top of your coal stove with newspapers, which will make handy table. Have your rack near the range, so that your tow els will get well dried after each dish
 washing. A small shelf should be put up near the stove to hold your salt and pepper box. The icebox should be re moved from the stove as far as possi- Ble if you must have 1t in the kitchen. Cover the wall back of your sink with oilcloth, preferably white, and here may be hung your sink broom, shovel, dish mop and soap shaker. The iron ing tahles that now come may be con- verted ir.to a settee when not in use. In the box or drawer may be kept the necessary articles for ironing. The top may be covered with oilcloth and will give an extra table. A chest of draw CTS under the closets is necessary for keeping the kitchen towels and aprons besides many other useful articles. It Is well to keep in the kitchen a bottle of linseed oil and lime water, together with a roll of old linen pieces, for bandages for use in case of burns.
Connecticut western news., 1907-01-31
The Bath Rug.

The bath rug should be made or washable material, should be daily shaken and the floor, if of tile, wiped with a damp cloth. Wooden bathroom floors should be dusted with long han dled lambs wool brush, and especial pains should be taken to clean under and behind the fixtures, so as to re move every accumulation.
 That everything thus collected should be burned seems obvious, but long and rigorous training sometimes Is required to persuade the ignorant not to drop them down the flushes. Nothing Is more provocative of plumbers bills than this. Even bits of soap although they seem harmless, have a tendency to collect all other solid particles and cause an accumulation which 1t win cost to re- move. The interior of the catch basin must be daily cleansed with long han dled stin brush slightly curved at the end. This brush should be excellent of it's kind, else the brlstles will fall.
 For cleaning the marble basin and the bathtub and faucets strong soap suds with ammonia or soda should be used now and then, but for the daily cleansing one of the quickest and best agents is gasoline.
 Moisten a small cloth with this, and a quick rubbing will cause the streaks of greasy dirt to disappear as If by magic. All nickel is frightened at once by gasoline. There are objec- tions to the odor, but fres4 air from the windows, opened at the top and bottom, will remove this.
 For safety never do the cleansing when there is artificial light of any kind in the room. Use only a small bottle for holding it and hang this outside the bathroom window when not in use by a wire fastened to its neck for the purpose.
