TINTED MaIIs Attractive.

Many women who are having their
houses done over this winter are choos-
Ing paint instead Of paper for an the
upstairs rooms.
They think this method more hygien-
ic and more cleanly. The walls can be
washed down and do not need to be
renewed each season.
Not only pale tints. but rich, warm
ones, are used, such as terra Gotta,
german blue and dun red. All the
tones Of heavy gray are popular.
For the nursery light blue, rose pink
and leaf green are used. The ceiling
and walls are alike, and there d no
attempt at fresco or dado. A mOldIng
y used Of stained wood, usually white
or ban.
Painted walls, with vanished hard
wood floors, insure cleanliness and
health In a sleeping room.
Women and children who have tried
these and themselves sufgocating In
rooms with carpets. thick wall papers
and curtain drapery.

When blankets are to be washed
soap should be cut into small pieces
and dissolved into jelly. This should
DO added TO warm water. enough to
form a suds, and borax put in for soft
tening and purifying purposes.
Into this the blankets should be en-.
tirely immersed and allowed to remain
for half an hour. The water should
not be allowed to get cold.
After the blankets are soaked
through they should be soused up and
down 70 release the dirt, then put
through a wFinger. After this the
blankets are put through a second

first. They are squeezed. but not rub

A board should not bo used, and,
above all, soap should never be rubbed
directly on the blanket. This not only
causes II to shrink. but the small hairs
are all matted by the soap, and the
blanket loses its fiuffy appearance.
They should be Finsed IN warm wa

directed toward the suppression or

Distribution OF Immigrants.
The great work Of the division OF
Information in the distribution OF
allen immigrants through the coun-
try Is considered at length. Score.
tary Straus regards the work OF this
division as OF the highest Importance
as It tends to relieve the congestion
OF aliens In urban centers Of popu-
lation. Attention also 70 devoted
to the division OF naturalization
which shows that 2244 courts have
been engaged In the last year in con-
ferring naturalization upon aliens.
During the year 136,725 declara-
tions for naturalization were flled.
Through the department OF justice
1903 cases for the cancellation OF H.
legally granted certifi ates were in
stituted and in 457 of the cases the
certificates were Withdrawn. Sug-
gestions are made OF important
amendments to the legislation relat-
ing to the naturalization OF aliens.

the bureau now has on hand inyesti-

offenses occur have wilfuliy neglected
to prosecute these cases under the ter
iltorial statute, and being of the opin-
ion that the present case does not foil
within the exception above stated and
that no one is complaining OF the act
whore the Same Is alleged to have been
committed, but " The act was commit
tod at all. Ii was done secretly and
committed but once, feel that the gov
eminent should not be called upon to
prosecute It, and thereby entail expense
IN its prosecution
Giving these as his reasons. tho
United states district attorney re-
quosted that the case against Mrs.
Mary Stanaway and ID. w Semple be
dismissed without even a preliminary
hearing"
We do not caro- to comment on the
foregoing The sum and substance of
the opinion is that, II the defendants
had been "Mormons" they would have
been prosecuted, but since they were
not "Mormons" there was no neces-
sity of putting the government to tho
expense OF prosecution.
That has been, and is now, the senti-
men, among certain class Of leading
anti "Mormons," and the letter Of the
Attorney is but an official expression of
that sentiment Years ago citizens Of
Utah were required to subscribe to
test oath, part OF which was: THAT
have not lived or cohabited with more
than one woman IN THE MAR
RAGE RELATION" The corruption
list and the llbertine could take that
test oath. They did take it. Anti
"Mormonism" is not a fight for morali-
ty though, like a peacock, 1t at times
strikes very imposing attitudes. 1t
never meant to interfere with a tempo
rary liaison like that reported by the
Bisbee Review.

LEARN TO SING.

Those who think they cannot learn
periments at the Smith College for
girls show that no girl, at least, has
yet been found who could not learn
to vocalize to notes.
The procedures is to invite all who
are silent In the chapel services, or
who fail to join in the jolly college
songs to join the tone dear class.
About a dozen Of these voiceless
inaidens are grouped for the ordeal OF
the first lesson, with all the tremors of
baby at its first steps. A blushing
girl is called upon. note is given
on the piano or violin. and she is asked
to listen intently, then to try TO form
mental picture OF the tone, then TO
make an effort to repeat it, then to tell
whether she has struck the note cor
rectly or not. While a few are SO tone
dull that 1t is long before they can tell
whether their effort to repeat the note
is sharp or flat, the majority make con-
siderable progress in eight lessons as
the result OF this simple concentration
on tono.
The blame for failure to sing Is at
tributed by Professor Sleeper largely
to parents, who fail TO encourage sing
ing at home and often ridicule the at
tempts of their children. Graduates
Of many private schools have never
had singing instruction. Children from
good public schools usually have had
good musical training. but country
schools are often remiss,
The professor advocates simple ano
romantic melodies for college songs,
ana regrets the fact that American
life misses no little sentiment and gay
city from the lack of classic and popu-
| lar airs. No two young people learn
| the same popular songs. and American
groups are song-dumb because nobody
ran think of anything familiar enough
for everyone to sing
