WragE for Legislature.
1t is learned that in Dallas county the
next member of the legislature is likely
to be Newton c. wragg, of Waukee. Mr..
Wragg is a banker and succeeded to the
old Wragg nursery business. When Lieu
tenant Governor Clarke was first nomi-
mated for the legislature he beat in the
primaries a brother of Newton Wragg,
Hon. Morris j. Wragg, now a resident OF
Des Moines, Clarke having only twenty
six votes the best of 1t. 1t is understood
the present member from that county,
John Fox, who did a good deal of wab-
bling on everything, will not be a candi-
date again.
Notice to Corporations. .
The secretary of state is this week send
ing out for the first time notices to cor
porations that they must pay their taxes
and make annual reports to the secretary's
office. For many years there has been
on the statute books a law requiring cor
porations to report annually, but there
was no provision by which the state could
compel them to make reports, and no
provision for an appropriation to notify
them even. The result naturally was that
very few corporations reported. Now the
secretary will keep after them and see
. that they all obey the law.

Says Railroad Not Fair.
]. f. Sparks of Walker, Iowa. in Linn
county has made complaint to the state
railroad commission that the railroad
there will not furnish him ground on which

to twenty days late in bringing the tile
from Mason City to Walker vet they insist
on his unloading the tile at once under
threat of charging him demurrage and
will not allow him to unload 1t on the rail-
road land. II was such complaints as this
that started the demand for reciprocal de-
murrage.

there should be two carriage clamps for fasten-

wooden potato masher will answer very we'll in lieu
of the regular article if desired 1t has said that
good workman always takes of his tools This
is point TO be borne in mind by the woodcarver.
Given good tools, she should to it that they

kept in case which is made for the purpose of
heavy brown nen strongly bound with tape. Pockets
are stitched with places for each tool which when
filed be rolled and tied securely making a not
unwieldy package.
''Now come to the woods used. You have heard.
perhaps, that unique story of the Woodcarver of
Olympus, who, confirmed invalid lay OH his bed
while he carved the most ravshng things from
branches cut off of the trees from out his window
Now, don't get idea that when one wants wood
for carving all that is necessary is go in the
back yard and cut branch off. That is a beautiful
fallacy.
Every bit Of wood used in scupturng must be per-
fecty seasoned for the purpose There are very few
woods used for this purpose Oak and mahogany are
perhaps those most suitable and best liked First
find out what you going to make, then decide on
the wood after that pick out the design If oak is
selected the ordinary quartered wood is the best as
it is softer and porous This can be bought for
from eighteen to twenty cents a square foot
Mexican mahogany, which comes at twenty-five
cents square foot, works up beautifully though the

SOCIAL, AMENITIES FOR
THE SCHOOL GIRL

1t is your place to defer to your chaperon in all
things If any little dispute arises turn to her to settle
it and never pOut otherwise display dissatistac-
ton over her decision If you wish to separate your
self for a few moments from the rest Of the party,
to stroll about always ask her permission to do so.
When it falls your lot to sit beside her or other
wise be particular companion, at matinee the
are party, do not ignore her, some bad hammered
girls are seen do but respond companionaby to her
conversation and make her part of whatever merri
ment is going
If you are giving a matinee party and your mother
does not chaperon, the older woman asked to take
the mothers place has a particular claim to your
courtesy Etiquette requires that carriage be sent
for her to bring her to your home where your party
assemblies to for the theatre. Under crcum-
stances is it permissible to assemble party in the
foyer of theatre. Whether you give your party in
the afternoon in the evening, the proper mode Of
conveyance is omnibus which holds the entire

fqShien.
The chaperOn, of course carries the tickets and
under her protecting wing she conveys you all into the
theatre ahead of her When you get inside you must
not go in independent fashion, but wait together
until she finds the usher when she conducts you down
the aisle Even though you the hostess it is
proper for you to attempt in any way to lead the
party. That is the duty of your duenna. She walks
down the aisle first and stands at your of Seats
assigning each of you to your proper places. The
seating of theatre party IS all arranged by you
forehand at home and your chaperon has famiarized
herself with the matter that she knows precisely
were to put each of you.

all forms of social life courtesy should be so in
| stinctive to be automatic, and nowhere is the
opportunity greater to exercise this charming quail
ity than in ones attitude to ones chaperOn. A
chaperon's post is sinecure, but the difficulties
of the position greatly ameliorated when young
people under her charge show her the little atten-
tOns and the general consideration it is her right to
expect.
There time when the chaperon did not play
so important part she does in social life,
where her presence has become established Gus
tom it is i'll the European world, and those young
people who sometimes inclined to resent the du
emma idea and to regard her a superhuity are
sadly wanting in knowledge of propriety and the
elegances of life
Girls should always try to remember that the
chaperOn has their pleasures at heart is constantly
studying ways to contribute to their enjoyment and
if at times she finds it necessary to chide this
that one for some tri1ing indiscretion it should
be taken in good part There is way in which
girls good breeding makes itself manifest
than in her gracious adapabiity to what is expected
of her.
Some girls have most dscOurteOus way of en-
deavoring to eude the chaperon Of the party. They
to think it very clever to sit far away from
her as possible to sneak out Of her sight whenever
occasion permits and to show general spirit Of in
dependence which expresses their defiance of her
authority. Such conduct not only indicates de-
plorabe lack Of breeding but it betrays seltshnesS
and assertiveness of disposition which to
make a girl most unpopular.

kIO NE question that is invariably put to me is,
How long will it take? Naturally this is a
rather trying question, for it all depends upon
the amount of home work the pupil is willing to do,
how fast she improves By taking two lessons Of
three hours each a week. in addition to doing an hour
Ot home work. it shouldn't take girl long become
very clever in the of wood carving One girl with
six lessons and home work carved bridal chest in
eight days Another who worked spasmodically
might take as many months. 1t all depends upon the
girl herself, her aptitude and persistence.
Another point Of interest is the cost OF the article
to be carved The cabinet work. say on a photograph
frame with the wood included would not be more
than ST. A bridal chest five feet long of some ordi-
nary wood with the dOvetailing and paneling, would
cost in the neighborhood of $50 Of oak mahogany
it would be So or 81 more.
Wood carving differs from almost any other art
Dr craft in that the materials which the work
is done has a grain Neither marble, leather, nor in
deed any other art material has this characteristic
while in one square foot Of wood the grain will some
times run as many fifty ways. 1t is impossible TO
explain inch by inch the handling Of the TOOLS One
must gain that knowledge she goes along
