Amty Drldge-"Stop my dear! Leave out that wash
boiler The first thing to get is boz of FesNapths

water.
Never use hot water or boil the clothes.

City Auditor Kurtz last night informed the
Democratic Councilmen intent on ousting him
from Office that their action would not prevent the
public his employer, from forming correct judg-
ment. Mr.. Kurtz is right in this for we think the
people recognize in Auditor Kurtz an official who
strove to do his duty conscientiously and as he
read the law, even though he was a stckler at
times. If his refusal to become party to some
of the disreputabe manipulatous of the Demo-
cratic members of the present Council is a suff-
cent reason for being thrown from office, Auditor
Kurtz need have no misgivings so far as the pub
lie is concerned.

DOVER TIGHTWADS.

i content with disputng the claim of keen
eyed but unnamed woman that the Hon. Richard
R. kenney is the acknowledged Beau Brummel of
the state capital is now throwing out hints to the
multitude of Tight-wads in Dover. The News
threatens to call on the Tight-wads TO dress up"
and we presume il will mention the list of Tight
wads by name if they don't loosen up
II will be an interesting list and will require the
utmost exertion of the nerve of the News TO print
it, But isn't any one 10 be let alone?
We fancy that the News in trying to make the
Kent Tightwads loosen up" will have very diff
icult task. Much easier is It 10 get a state ap-
preparation from the Legislature and then Will
mington will foot the bill although we have plenty
of Tght-wads here
The News, however, must know that many men
regard their money as their best friend and they
don't want to the risk of offending their best
friend by handing part of him over to the public

OFF TO MT. IDA.

The passage of that new judicial district bill. which makes Garand and Montgomery counties separate judi cial district should be immediately followed by a substantial enthusiasm for new highway between Hot Springs and Mt. Ida.
 Regardless of that fast dying preiu- dice that exists in the country. the automobile is the modern method Of travel. and especially where there ID no train available, as between these cities.
 There will be a great deal cf busl- ness between Hot Springs and Mt. Ida in the future. That little county seat will be the scene of all the changes of venue in the courts from this county. That means that lawye' s, clients and witnesses will make many trips between these cities.
 An automobile trip between the cities will make the one way trip about two and one half hours. and ulaf, too through the prettiest country ever travelled With team the trip requires day
 If this road is established our vis- itors will soon hear Of the beauties of the trip and will be tempted to make 1t. which will be good for Montgomery county. and good for Hot Springs.
 Besides. an auto road isn't strictly an auto road. for it means only well kept roadway for all kinds of travel, and We want that Montgomery county business, so if we have good high way we are certain to get it. 1t will make business for the merchants uf our city, and increase our cotton mar ket 50 per cent.
 There are thousand arguments in favor of this highway and not one against it. Let's get together and try to make the highway on modern ecale-and do it now
 Garland county will do it's part. and < 1t is certain that Montgomery county will get in the game vita it's part. Then with public subscription, and a aittle encouragement from the farm CTS along the way, the scheme could be carried out
 This is day of good roads and we must keep up with the procession. Think the matter over and l.sen act. A committee should be appointed by the Business Mems League immedi- ately to aid in the movement. 1t is not gigantic task. but will require work Let's get at it.

the worry and sorrow Phelps
mama had passed through during
his first year in the school under
the care of the heartless teacher,
seeing her carefully trained boy
of seven develop into an ugly,
hateful, revengeful lad at eight
was quite sufficient to make her
heavy hearted and almost soured
on the public schools. She dreaded
for schoolsto begin and had not
even decided up to the very last
day of vacation whether she would
send HIM To school or take care of
his instruction into her own hands.
But Phelps papa decided the mat
ter. He told his wife that there
was always some hope for the wo-
man that admired men they had
some feeling at least. 1t is sup
posed he was thinking of his inter
view with Phelps former teacher,
and was contrasting her cold ignor-
ant face with the bright intelligent
countenanee Of Marie Anderson.
So, with much dread of conse-
quences, Phelps mama sent him
to school. So far as Phelps was
concerned, it is suffice to say
that he went to school in full arm
or, and was ready for battle at a
moments notice.
Phelps mama waited with great
anxiety for her boy to return
from school tine first day. 1t is
true all mothers are alike, but
there are few really great loving
women who take the matter of ed
ucating their children seriously to
heart, and if teachers could get a
glimpse of their feelings they
would pat more thought and con-
science iptd the conduct of their
work. When Phelps came home
his mama hastened to ask him how
he got along at school. His count
enance fell at once as he thought
of old battles at school, and the
usual scene of sermonizing at home
passed quickly in review before
his mental eye. Purity we'll,

Miss Alice Smith who taught
the 4th grade in our schools last
year will teach this year in Spo-
kane, Washington, in the Academy
of the Holy Name, a Catholic
school. Miss Smith has host of
friends in Liberal who rejoice in
her having such good position.
We were sorry to lose Miss Smith
from the list of Seward county
teachers. We wish her success in
her new position.
A letter from Prof. Coffman
tells us his wife passed away to the
Great Beyond at Weston, Colora-
do. She was a beautiful and cul-
tured woman. We met her several
times and each time loved her
more. Prof. Coffman was super
intendent of the Liberal schools at
one time. He is now superintend-
ent of the schools in Granite, Ok.
We extend him our sympathy.
Teachers-if the little ONES sut-
fer with ear ache, saturate a piece
of cotton with chloroform, put it
into the bowl of clean pipe place
it over the ear and blow the fumes
into the ear. 1t will give almost
instant relief. We have tried ii
and never failed.
PHELPS AND HIS TEACHERS
Phelps in the Second Grade:
After a year of turmoil in Phelps
home and school as a result of a
constant warfare between himself
and his teacher, he was promoted
to the second grade. 1t was a day
of great rejoicing on Phelps part,
but Phelps mama was not happy.
She knew or thought she did that
Marie Anderson, the second grade
teacher, was not what she ought
to be. In fact, she classed her
among the heartless set, with the
added sin of being conscious that
she was a very pretty woman and
took a particular delight in attract
ing the opposite sex to her.
Therefore, taking into account all
