WHEN CARPET BECOMES BARE.
Devices by Which Its Usefulness May
Be Prolonged.


In the case of bare carpet three
courses may be followed. A new one
may be substituted, the old one being
relegated to Q room of less conse-
Quence; or a square may be put on top
of the old; or a manipulation of the
widths may be attempted. banishing
the worn parts to obscure corners sun-
derneath rugs or pieces of furniture,
where they will scarcely be seen and
not trodden upon.
A word Of advice may here be given
about regulating the wear of stair car
pet.
Each length Of 1t should always be
at least half yard longer than actual
ly required. to permit of changing the
tread. In laying such carpet for the
first time have the surplus half yard
at the top.
After the first time it is taken up,
when relaying pull it over the step q
few inches, and SO on until the surplus
half yard is all at the bottom; then
the carpet could be reversed and this
process repeated, with the result that
some years will be added to the life
Of the carpet.

says that IL has uncovered flaws in
the conduct of the campaign that will
tend to swing the election against
Mr.. Wheeler, even though he de-
feated two other candidates for the
Office of commissioner.

all up to Ira j. Mcknight as to who
will constitute the board of commits

that Mr.. Mcknight could remain

in the following issue, when il stated
that Governor Diekerson shall be the

that neither of them has much TO

and who intend to stand by him.
