STATE FAIR OFFICIALS EXPLAIN,
REPUBLICANS YEARLY WAIT
Patriots the Capitol Ready Name the Candidates and
Erect Platform Democratic Officials in No
Hurry Abdicate.

Indications of senatorial activity
are a feature of thus early in the
campaign. To be really next one
wants to have a live wire in the SEN
atorial combine. Even the COVER
nor himself was once senator.
Then there's Senator Brewer and
Cole and Senator Stephens and Sen
ator Ed. Smith and Senator Alder
man-how these senators do come
to the front to be sure-that is the
right kind those who played ball.
The wise politician who wants to
keep in touch and be in line with
what's going to happen when after
next year we have a really, for-sure
Republican administration, should
lose no time in getting next. The
Republican me and Mike" conf
IDENTIFY expect soon to be handing
out the plums.
In the meantime they are setting
up the pins. Bob Dunn suggests
that nobody should bother, but let
Ed. Smith and Oar Reese select the
ticket and fix up the platform. Why
discriminate? There are others.
You can't have state wide ma
chine and only recognize those in st.
Paul and Minneapolis. OF course
there must be representatives to do
things at the state capitol, but they
aren't the whole show.
At that they would be badly
enough off if they didn't have some
one to consult and to really direct
some one with ample leisure to
devote to the public service. That's
where Col. Rich comes in. The plans
are really laid and the campaign
mapped out in the federal building.
That's where Col. Wilkinson heads
for when he wants instructions. It
is Col. Rich that Ed. Smith has to
look up to. 1t is from him when
anything is to be done affecting the
Republican end of the machine that
finds him employment that Oar
Reese takes his orders. Fortunate
ly for an overworked man there is
just now a lull in state politics OF
Mr.. Rich would be hard pressed for
time to direct the insurgent end of
the state fair campaign.
Still I'm afraid there are some
things Mr.. Rich has overlooked. Not
that so busy man is really to blame
but it has been impressed upon me
that it's really up to him to put the
matter very plainly to the governor
A representative Republican from
southern Minnesota was talking
about it the other day. He has

Two dogs jealous of the affection!

inseparable friends. When the setter
from the city tried to supplant Patsy

1t was a fierce fight while it lasted.
and the pet pig and wiry little Irish
terrier, Bunk referred it. Bunk never
liked the idea of Patsy being on such
friendly terms with the pig. He re-
monstrated in his dog way and sulked
when Patsy failed to heed his warn

ship. All differences were sunk. how
ever, when the city dog arrived at the
beach and tried to come between Pat
sy and his piggy love. Bunk stood
ready to assist Patsy in trouncing the
setter but the terrier put up such a
game fight that there never was a
time when Bunks assistance was
needed
From the time Mrs. Seidler first
permitted the pig to run at large

trouble between them until the black
setter arrived When it tried to do
the playing and to cut Patsy out Of the

scALY LEGS IN "

A correspondent asks the Circle
Magazine about the treatment of
scaly legs in fowls, and wants to
know how to cure it. F. H. Valen-
tine replies as follows:
II the birds are only moderately
affected, or are Particularly valuable
for breeding purposes, they may be
cured readily, II the treatment be
thorough. "Scaly legs" is caused by
a mite technically known as s%arcoptes
mutans, which penetrates beneath the
epidemic scales on the legs and feet.
Some birds are more susceptible to it
than others, possibly because the
scales grow tighter on their legs.
Turkeys, pheasants, some cage birds,
as well as other birds, are attacked by
it, but water fowls are considered
immune. The disease is contagious.
Energetic measures are necessary.
Isolate all affected birds. Clean the
houses thoroughly, Disinfect with
carbolated whitewash or some other
good d~fsinfectant. Soak the legs Of
the birds in warm water containing a
little soap to loosen the scales. Re-
move these scales as far as possible
without being too severe. This will
enable the remedy to come into con-
tact with the insects, which are next
to flesh. There are several good
remedies. Kerosene is good. Into
O quart measure or deep pail, nearly
filled with water, put a tablespoonful
of kerosene, and dip the legs into this,
repeating after three days, and again,
if necessary. to effect a cure. But
this will bleach the legs. One part
of sulphur to ten parts Of vaseline or
lard well rubbed into the scales is
good. Apply every other night for a
week or ten days. Some of the liquid
germicides are good. We have used
zenoleum, one part to twenty parts
water, in which the legs were dipped.
A good carbolic salve is good. But
be thorough, and don't let the trou.
BILE spread.

there is another reason that IS toe

there is another reason that is too
often neglected.
The possibilities of contagion
through uncared for nails is rarely
thought of, yet it is more than a pos
sibility, as many cases of disease are
directly traceable to the hands.
Every one should keep an orange
wood stick about her, and the nails
should be cleaned each time the hands
are washed. This, in cities, is neces-
sary in the interest Of ordinary clean
illness, but even in non-sooty com
munities it is a hygienic precaution.
II one has been in contact with the
sick, the utmost care of the nails is
essential, and it is we'll before eating
to use an antiseptic wash, applied by
cotton on the end Of an orange wood
stick. Those who must handle money
or are in library work, where they
must touch books in ell conditions,
should also give extra attention to
their finger nails.
Polishing, tinting, training for half
moons may be beauty measures sim
ply, but the cleanliness Of the nails
is as much a matter of health as it
is of breeding or looks.
Another reason that one should
manicure the nails regularly is that
there are rough places and imperfec-
lions that, if left, will unconsciously
lead to nail biting. This ugly habit
would be much less commcn'if moth
ers would see to it that children's
nails are kept smoothed and filed.
From an esthetic standpoint, mani
curing needs no special pleading. The
hand that is cared for and that is neg
lected speak for themselves when it
comes to. looks.-New Haven Reg

AS VAIN AS A PEACOCK.

venture to send you some partlcu"
lars about the behavior of q young
peacock that is kept here. The bird
began by sedulously frequenting the
stable yard; and, whenever the car
riage was brought out OF the coach
house, he would take his stand by IT
and gaze at his reflection in the pam
els. He then took to accompanying
the carriage up to the house, and,
standing beside it at the front door,
engaged in self contemplation. He
now runs behind the carriage, when
it starts from the house, down to a
certain point Of the drive, apparently
in the hope that it may stop and al
| low him to continue his favorite oc-
cupation, but he seems to conclude at
a certain place that the case is hope
less, though, if the carriage halts fur-
Their down the drive he will reJoln 1t
and resume his observations.
1t occurred to us to wonder what
he would do If a looking glass were
| placed on the lawn. This was accord
ingly done, and he at once found it
out. Nothing will induce him to quit
it. He will stand by it for hours to-
gether. At first, he occasionally
locked inquisitively behind the glass
at intervals to see if a bird was actu-
ally present, but he has given this up
now. Ee stands in front Of 1t entire
ly absorbed, often motionless for a
.long time, occasionally moving his
head gently up and down, and some
times softly touching the glass with
his bill, appearing slightly bewildered
by the contact. If food is thrown to
him lie takes no notice, unless 1t is
close to the glass, when he will hur-
riedly gob5le it up and return to his
more congenial employment in haste,
as though vexed at being interrupted.
II the glass is taken into the drawing
room, which is on the ground floor
looking into the garden, he will en-
ter the room by door or window, find
the glass, and continue his favorite
pursuit; and he spends the greater
part of the day at the door that leads
from the drawing room into the gar
den. in the hope that some one may
bring out his glass for him.
Meanwhile the peahen is sitting on
a nest of eggs in q hedge close at
hand. He never goes near her. his
only idea being to find opportunities
for contemplating hisown PROJECTIONS.
1 suppose that the %proyerb, Gas vain
as a peacock" refers to the birds
habit Of spreading his tail and strut
ting about; but it is curious to find
that this instructive vanity lies deeper
still, and is not confined to the desire
to arouse the admiration Of his mate.
as is generally taken for granted, but
is based upon a genuine c~omplacency
and an almost morbid consciousness

A. Hair Famine Predicted.

Hair has considerably risen in
price. In the city OF Limoges, the
principal market for hair, a kilo of
hair worth SO a few years ago now
fetches ga los. This rise has been
caused By the increased size Of hats,
which. necessitates an extra supply
Of hair so as to offer q proper basis
to the new structures. Moreover, the
young French peasant girls are less
anxious to part with their t~resses;
and the dealers in hair are unable
to cope with the demand made upon
them. The crisis is, attaining huge
proportions, and wearers Of false hair

Grass. 1t is very common on dry,

eat it greedily, and it is especially
relished by sheep. 1t shoots its leaves
out early, but the amount of its

would be one of our most valuable
