Books on a Shelf.

Books are frequently ruined through
carelessness. This is less In the han.
ding often than upon the shelves.
Books should not be packed tightly
on q shelf. 1t ruins the back and
causes them TO tear loose with the
strain Of getting in and out. often it
forces the leaves to sag to the shelf
when pushed unduly. 1t is Just as bad
for books to be too loose on a shelf. az
they warp. and the spreading leaves
encourage dust. A bookcase with the
contents at every angle is not pleas
ing sight. There are some housekeep-
ers who think a yearly busting of the
books at housekeeping time sufficient
This Is bad enough when they are
kept under glass; when on open
shelves it means ruin to valuable
books. 1t takes a little longer to dust
the backs and tops of books on each
shelf every day. Use soft cheese
cloth or silk buster and shake it fire.

They Are All Her Very Own. and tho

Men In every other profession and
business have the advantage of dem
lists In the matter of advertising" said
a man with forceps in his hand. They
can persuade good looking young wo-
men to wear their goods for photo
graphic purposes; the dentist cannot.
The whitest, evenest set of false teeth
ever made cannot tempt woman to
wear them and be photographed with
her mouth wide open.
Manufacturers of cosmetics and ar
tificial hair are besieged by women
who are willing to daub their faces
with paint and powder and build their
heads out with puffs and braids into
any style of architecture desired for
Photographic advertisements. Neither
do they balk at patent wearing ap-
parel. The most absurd garment ever
Invented can find somebody to pose in
1t before the camera. But false teeth
are universally blacklisted.
Every woman who gets photograph
ed with her mouth spread into n smile
wants people to think that the teeth
she shows are her own, and the dentist
who would dare to label the picture
These teeth made by Dr. Blank would
lay grounds for a libel suit" New

Good Clothes and Good Morals.

1t is doubtful whether any one to
whom soap and water and more or
less tidy clothes are matter of course
can rightly estimate the extent to
which this question Of clothes and
cleanliness bears upon the criminality
of youths. Dirty, ragged garments.
greasy caps and neck scarfs worn day
after day without the possibility of It
change are, | believe, responsible for
much. Certain it is that the lad who
Is content with but one set of raiment
invariably belongs to a very low stra-
tum of society, and the absence OF a
desire for Sunday suit and the I'M
abashed wearing of the weekday suit
on the Sunday is very frequently IN
deed the mark of one largely imper-
vious to outside infuences.--C. II. b.

their ears to attract their attention
Police patrolmen are no exception
to this rule. On duty singly, as in
the large cities, they can hardly giv9
attention TO anything not in the line
of their duties, If bright enough for
the positions they hold and duly so
Der, their minds must have some oc-
cupation. What else can they do but
observe the conditions along their
beats? This they will do closely and
steady them. They will become we'll
acquainted with the habits OF people
on their routes and anything a little
ont of the ordinary will attract their
attention, cause pause and if seem
ingly necessary on investigation. Be
ing alone, regard for their own safety
will prompt watchfulness. They will
be aware of the need Of getting the
advantage, "the drop" as II were, on
night providers out with criminal In
tent, and often will hide in shadows
to observe suspicious circumstances
or happenings, or people acting mys-
teriously. The single patrolman as.
quires unusual alertness of sight and
hearing, and in these particulars will
fully match the professional higawal-
man or burglar.
II is not probable that there are too
many men on the Cairo police force
but by undoubling the night patrol
men they would cover as much terri
tory as now and their beats be only
half as long. This would bring them
around on their routes twice as often
as now, and housoholders would feel
that their premises were much better
watched than now and derive salts.

and single patrolmen this could hard

COTTON CLAIMS
BEFORE HOUSE
AFTER A SPIRITED DEBATE AN
AMENDMENT Is ADOPTED RE-
MOVING THE STATUTE OF LIN.
ITATION FROM CLAIMS.
BY Associated Press.

Washington, Feb. S-Succeeding
last week in striking out the words
war Of rebellion" from one section of
the Moon bill for the codifcation of
the judiciary laws, substituting civil
war, the southern members of the
house amplified their work today by
striking out the objection rebellion"
in several other chapters.
The house also adopted, after a
spirited fight, an amnedment by Bart
lett of Georgia, removing the bar of
statute Of limitations from claims
against the government for reimburse
ment for property taken under the
abandoned property act Of 1863. Most
of these claims were for cotton taken
by the government and sold.
During the consideration of this
amendment Mann of Illinois, suggest
ed that the Democrats might as well
bring in an amendment to the amend
ment providing for the repayment Of
the cotton tax, amounting to nearly
sixty weight millions. Clark Of Florida
declared that he proposed to offer such
an amendment at the proper time.
You may be able to put through
such legislation when you Democrats
have control of the house but you'll
never get it through while we have
control" replied Mann.
