When cleaning pantry shelves fold to- gether at least three sheets Of newspaper the longest way of the full sheet. Place the fold 10 the front of the shelf; tt carefully. and when next clean papers are needed slip a silver knife in the fold of the outer sheet, put along the entire length and remove the soiled part In thls way your shelves may be cleaned often and with little labor
 When canning fruit. put two rubbers on the glass jar and there will be no poss- ble chance of air getting in. Sometimes there are sharp little edges on the jar that seem to cut the one rubber. The next rubber on top of this will keep out the air, even if the lower one be cut. The tops can be screwed on tighter as well.
 To save space in the refrigerator put all liquids, such as milk, soup. or cold drinks, in glass fruit jars with cover on. Keep a glass jar of drinking water also. You will not need ice in it
 Dressmakers save time, when cutting out two corresponding pieces of a pattern by not pinning the pattern to each piece separately in order to mark all the tucks, but instead place a piece of carbon paper under the two pieces of material TEen with a common lead pencil mark all t-e perforations.

 Incidentally there will be a modest, but inspiring amount of red fire and
 music and no effort will be made to
 keep the meeting a secret Admission
 may be secured by presenting ones
 face at the door and no collection will
 be taken up. These inducements ought
 to be sufficient to fill the theater twice over. but there may be others offered
 that are not recited in this list so it will be wise for all who can to attend the meeting any way. There is no in tention of presenting Governo Kibbey's ideas in advance of the meeting. but it has been learned from authoritative sources. that it is his purpose to dem onstrate why every man on the re- publican ticket from Ralph Cameron to the most humble candidate, should be elected this year, and those who have given the subject thoughtful cOnsideTa- tiOn. agree that in sustaining the re- publican end of the present contrOver- sy the governor has all the best of it.

PHOENIX DEPARTMENT
 WILL ENTER A TEAM
Action Of Thursday Night Was Recon sidered Last Night and From Now on Training Will Be Continuous.

There was another meeting of the | Firemen's tournament committee last night at which the action of the night before was reconsidered and it was fin ally decided to enter a track team in the tournament races. This action was after conference with many citizens
 who thought the Phoenix department
 should make showing anyhow and
 hold up its end in the tournament, even though it gets a late start and has but
 short time in which to train a team.
 It was therefore decided to make the
 effort more to show public spirit than
 in the hope of winning, though it will
 do its best to capture the hose race just as though nothing had happened to dampen its ardor. And now that the decision has been made no time will be lost and all patriotic citizens are expected to encourage the home team in every way possible. There is some fine athletic timber in the or ganiZation and all it lacks is training. This will be entered upon enthusiastic ally, beginning tonight. Every mem Der of the department who would like to enroll in the team is asked to be at the engine house tonight at 7:30 for an initial try-out and a conference with the team managers and trainers.

intosh may be cleaned by washing 1t with soap and water, but if 1t Is exceptionally dirty dip 1t first In cold soft water and then lay on a clean table or board. With a soft scrubbing brush scrub with yellow soap on both sides until the dirt Is re- moved Then dip in three or four waters until the soap Is removed entirely, and hang 1t out without wringing 1t. If the mud stains around the bottom have been in long and are obstinate, 1t is just as well tO send it to a cleaner.
 Fruit that Is cooked with the skins on, such as plums or cherries, should never be plunged into boiling hot syrup. as this will tougher and wrinkle the skin. IL Is better to cool the syrup before adding 1t 10 the fruit.
 When stretching curtains, especially those beginning to show a little wear, put a sheet on the floor and tack the most worn curtain down first, using bank Tins to tack each scallop. Then hook the other curtains on the same as on stretch CTS. This method takes much less time. The curtains will be straight and of unl- form size, as four curtains can be put down at once and they will wear twice as long. Tack them down: do not pin them, because when pinning the pins must be removed for each curtain and pinned back. Bank pins are sold by the pound in all department stores They will not bend in tacking and can be used a nun Der of times.

Suggestions in Hall
 Furnishings.

The drawing, a sketch of the hallway of country house, suggests one of the most desirable ways of placing a stair case; but the plan of having the stair way inclosed with a large square land ing such as pictured, of course, requires considerable space. For a country or suburban house, though. where space is not so limited, a more attractive and desirable arrangement could hardly be planned. The hallway which suggested the drawing was delightful in colorlng and was furnished almost entirely with mission furniture. S,
 The furniture was all in Very dark fumed oak, the rough plaster walls being tinted a soft yellow tone, the high vain scoting and beamed ceiling being in the black oak, the floor of the large square hall, which was fitted up as a living room, was of hardwood, and there were numerous rugs in Persian cOlorings. The landing of the stairs was lighted by a wide easement window, with panes of yellow leaded glass, and on the landing was placed a mission plant stand holding a large green plant. The lights in this hall were all from the side, except for a hanging lamp in the center, and were in the form of triple sconees.

A great many innovations are gradual ly appearing in the new designs and modes, and by next fall the fashionable outline will be very different from that of last season, long, clinging lines fitting the figure very snugly being now more and more in evidence. The sheath skirt, although 1t will be not as extreme in style as the first French models sent over. Is undoubtedly to be the accepted mode, and the smartest skirts are cut to give very slender lines, and are many of them made with long, sweeping trains, to accentuate this effect.
 Sleeves are also growing smaller, many of the new French gowns showing long sleeves, which define the arm closely clear to the shoulder. As to trimmings, the craze for buttons has not abated, and soutache braiding Is still much used.
 The drawings show some very desirable summer frocks. The first depicts an at- tractive gown of linen, trimmed with buttons made of the gown material. The model was in hydrangea blue, with yoke of tucked washable tulle and lace. The second sketch is of a pretty frock of green null, trimmed with white flet lace bands. These bands were inserted in rather an odd fashion on the bodice and were outlined by rows of dots done in green embroidery cotton.
 The young girls frock was of grayish blue linen, with a yoke of white em- broidery. DOROTHY DALE.

The use of putty is, unfortunately. very little understood by the average house holder. While it Is indispensable to every painter, carpenter, or cabinet maker. 1t does not occur to the house keeper that this substance is of great use about the house. It may be used to fill in almost any sort of dent, hole or crack, and so give the object a smooth, slightly surface.
 Always hlI all shrunken seams in wood. or cracks or crannies, or creyices with putty before beginning to paint or stain. Old putty kept over from former repair ings may be softened by kneadlng 1t gently and dropping in oil ss 1t Is knead- ed. It is better, however. to mix 1t fresh, as 1t is never quite so manageable after reworking. The process is very simple. Sift two pounds of whiting Into an earthen bowl, make a hole in the middle and pour in gradually, stirring and pounding all the time. enough raw linseed oil to make 1t of the proper con- hstency. This Is a point in favor of making 1t at home-it can be soft or stiff, at need.
 For floor cracks that are deep and wide 1t ought to be as stih as biscuit-dough.

, In the course of a conversation on the subject of selecting sites, MT Win dom said that he had had many anus ing experiences and had encountered many singular reasons why a building should be at this place or that one. He said that some time ago he had been sent to town in Arkansas to locate a public building. A great many sites had been offered, but most of the in habitants at one time or another call ed upon him during his stay and quiet ly suggested that the best place would be the site then occupied by the only hotel in town. Comparatively few of the people who made these suggestions had any interest in real estate in the vicinity of the hotel.
 He asked several of them why they were interested in the location of the building at that point They replied. that if the building were located there. they would get a new hotel.
 As a guest of the hotel, MT Windom saw the force of their reasoning but he did not say that it influenced him in the selection.

4 TUCSON LEASE
 IN SUPREME COURT
A Condition Complicated By the Bank
 ruptcy of the Lessee.

An interesting matter concerning a
 lease has come up to the supreme court in the appeal from the district
 court of Pima county of Lena Murphy
 and w. E. Murphy against Joseph E.
 Brown, A. Sims and B. Freidman. The lappellants were the owners of a busi- ness building in Tucson which in Feb ruary of 1907, they leased to Brown. One of the conditions of the lease was that if Brown desired to end his ten ancy at the beginning of any year he
 should so notify the appellants on the first of the preceding October In case { he should neglect to do so he was to | be held for a years rent from the be- ginning of the following year.
 Before the end of the first year
 Brown became a bankrupt and his stock of goods passed into the hands of Sims as assignee. Before the end of the year from which the lease dated, the stock was sold by Sims to Fried man. There had naturally been no mo- tification by Brown that he intended
 his relation toward the appellants as
 tenant. Events in his opinion had rendered such notification unnecessary.
 After the stock of goods had passed
 AAAAp liAt IdlluS oL fIltulldli, Iile aD- pellants claiming lien to secure the payments of the next years rent, in a suit against Brown, Sims and Fried man secured a temporary injunction restraining Friedman from selling the goods.
 Friedman moved for a dissolution of the injunction on the general ground | that he knew nothing of the arrange | ment which had existed between Brown | and the appellants; that it was none | of his business, but that it was his | business to dispose of the goods he had | bought, consisting of men and women's | before the fashions changed | All the time the injunction was in force, the fashions were changing re- gardless of it. His motion was denied.
 Sims also made answer in which he pointed out that in selling the goods he was really acting under orders of the court and that if he had pursued my other course he would have been 'emiss.
 He also pointed out that the appel ants had had their remedy if they had my claim against Brown, by filing hem with himself as assignee but they lad not done so. On his motion the injunction was dissolved and the ap- S' 'eal was taken.

GOV. KIBBEY WILL SPEAK
Campaign Issues Will Be Discussed and Reasons Given For Electing Ev- cry Man On the County Ticket.

This IS Saturday night and therC
 may be a lot doing in town. but there
 will be more going on at the Elks | theater than anywhere else. That is where the republican. candidates for
 the county offices will assemble to see
 and be seen, and where telling argu- ments why they should be elected will be presented.
 Governor Kibbsy will be the princi-
 pal speaker of the evening and the governor makes speeches only when he
 has something to say. There is a lot
 that can be said right now and nobody
 can say il any better than the gover-
 nor can. He will say it also in way that will interest every man and wom- an who comes out to hear him. He will be talking on subject he is fla miliar with and is also interested in and the public is invited to remember the words of the apostle Out Of the fullness of the heart the mouth speaketh"
 The governor will bring a message of stimulating enthusiasm to those who are strong in the faith. but sluggish in action. There is hope also that he will be able to swing out a beacon star to some who, having lost the road to pol itical Elysium, are still groping about in the darkness of despair and cutting for trail without noting a friendly sign anywhere on the democratic ticket.
 There will doubtless be some other speakers to complete the formalities and add interesting color to the picture. while the candidates for the county of fees will be on dress parade. They Ire familiar figures to most Of the vot- ers, but there are always a few in any community who came last and are not acquainted with everybody They can 'ote just as hard and just as often as he oldest Hassavamper and they are

 In pantries and closets 1t Is of great use fin checking the advance of crawling things. It Is well to cram every creyice with 1t. Then if the putty cracks. put in more. It Is also of great use in the bathroom, and Is safe to use because it absorbs neither moisture nor odors in any appreciable degree.

PROBABLE LOCATION
 OF PUBLIC BUILDING
That Is Still a Secret Locked in the Breast Of Mir Windom.

William D. Windom, special agent of the treasury department who came here to investigate the various sites which have been offered for d public building left last night for Washington. Upon his recommendation will greatly, and perhaps wholly, depend the loca- tion of the building. MT. Windom very naturally did not intimate what his recommendation would be He said however that no more proposals would be received except such as might be notifications of or related to proposals already submitted.
 Mr Windom on expressing enjoy ment of the climate and surroundings here, was asked if he did not expect to come back some time. He replied that he hardly thought he would. He add ed that for obvious reasons he never revisited a town where he located a public building site
