Four candidates are in the field Kibbey, Young, Sturges and Stod- dard-and the friends of each are making strenuous efforts in their behalf MT. Stoddard is cousin to President Taft, and that should give him an advantage. The Phoe- nix Republican is of the opinion that Kibbey has the best chance of landing the plum.

He says it is the richest mineral appearing country he ever saw and believes there are more chances there for big mines than any place else in the world he knows of. In speaking of the claims in which Dr Townsville is part owner, the Phoe- nix Republican stated that a big strike had been made on the group. A number of pieces taken from the grass roots showed plenty of free gold. Some of the ore horned showed a streak of the rich metal as long as ones thumb nail.

Many Uses for Scissors.

II you want to see a pair of scissors
put to all sorts of queer uses just
watch some young h~ousekeeper getting
vegetables ready for dinner or prepar-
ing a salad. 1t is declared tina nine
cases out of every ten things can be
cut better with the scissors than with
a knife. Especially in the preparing
of salads should the kitchen scissors
appeal to the h~ousekeeper looking for
labor-saving schemes.
Dicing apples and celery is a matter
of only a moment when done in this
way, and a few green peppers may be
shipped up in less time than it takes
to tell about it. The easiest way to
dice green peppers is to cut off sew
eral long slivers the whole length of
the pepper. Hold these firmly in one
hand and with the scissors slip through
the entire bunch.
Several stalks of asparagus may be
clipped through in the same way. For
following out a tomato previous to
stuffing, a pair of scissors enables one
to remove practically all the pulp with
out breaking through the skin.
For fruit salads scissors are equally
useful, as the fine skin which separates
the sections of grapefruit and oranges
is easily clipped off in this way. But
fruit and vegetable salads are not the
only kinds for which the kitchen scis-
sors may be brought into use.
Cold boiled chicken and lobster are
easily cut into pieces, and, surprising
as it may. seem to those who haven't
tried it, chicken joints and lobster shells
are no obstacles when scissors are used.
The hard parts of oysters and CLAIMS
are neatly removed with a pair of scis-
sors, and slices of cold tongue and
ham are often much improved in ap-
pearance if, before sending it to table,
they are trimmed into shape in the
same way.
When 1T comes to preparing cold veg
etables for reheating in cream sauce,
or for the many popular dishes au
gratin, the kitchen scissors are again
a blessing.
Cold boiled potatoes, caulif1owers, as
paragus, oyster-plant, in fact any and
every vegetable may easily be shipped
into pieces of the required size.
Doing such work with a pair of scis-
sors is not only much quicker and
easier, but the saving of ones hands
is important.
No woman will believe unfN she tries
for herself how great a labor-saver a
pair of scissors may prove In her
kitchen.

MOSQUITO TASTE.
has been much publish.

"HERE has been much published
in the press from time to time
as to the effect of different col
ors on mosquitoes, though most of these
articles are based Upon very meager
experiments. 1t is stated that the mos
quitoes are strongly Influenced in
choosing their victims by the color of
their clothes. In 1S41 Spence founnd
that a loose fabric of white threads
kept mosquitoes away much more
effectively than one of black threads.
Jolly observed in Madagascar that mos
quitoes prefer to alight on black soil
rather than on white sandy soil, and
rather on black shoes and clothes than
OF white. The natives of Madagascar
even suspend pieces of black fabric
from the ceilings of their huts in order
to attract the mosquitoes to it. Jolly
also found that light dogs were tor
me1ted less by mosquitoes than black
ones, negroes more than Europeans.
Similar observations were made In In
dia. The Englishmen, INITIAL and Ship
ley, found that Anopheles maculipennis
preferred colors in this order; Dark
blue. dark red, brown. red, black, gray,
olive gray, violet green, light gray,
pearl gray. pale gray, azure blue, ochre
color, white, yellow.

A Clever idea.

The mother who groans yer the
destructiveness Of her young son on
the knees of his stockings, should adopt
the plan of one ingenious mother who
has learned how to make stockings last
twice as long. In buying she selects
stockings as long as they can be
bought. and before wearing runs a fiat
tuck about the ankle just below the
shoe top where it will not rub in walk
ing. When the knees of her sons stock
ings become hopelessly darned the tuck
is ripped and the worn part raised SO
that 1t slips under the short trousers
while a whole knee takes its place.
