Rapids, Michigan, said, in speaking of
the work of Miss Grace Barnhart, a
former student: 81 don't know much
about shorthand, but judging from
Miss Barnhart'S work you must have
an extraordinary system. She is GER
tainly the best stenographer we ever
had, and handles the technical Ian
guage of our business easily, reading
her notes like print. During Miss
Barnhart's first week in that position,
her employer gave her two days steady
dictation without chance to trans
cribe any of it, but she handled this
easily. In three months time she was
promoted over three others by the
employer as head stenographer. Lat
er she went with the Fox Company
and was soon head of the stenograph-
ic force.
Miss Ada Rice has taken a position
as stenographer in the office of DR..
NJ G. Porter.

graphic work for Mr.. NJ. F. Rigby.

The Perfect Shortening

Cottolene is made from the finest
vegetable oil-as pure and wholesome as
olive oil. Lard, on the contrary, is
made from the fat of the hog,-some-
times impure, often indigestible. Cotto-
lene makes things taste better, makes
them digest better. 1t gives you butter
results at less than the price of lard.
There is no indigestion sold with Cotto-
lene. Cottolene is economical because
you use one-third less.

STATES PRINTING
FUND EXHAUSTED
NO MONEY is AVAILABLE
ATTORNEY G. E n f r A l. LEFT
WITHOUT MEANS TO HAVE
BRIEFS PRINTED.

Little Rock, April 1.-The state
officers must pay for their own print
ing from now until the legislature
meets, or go without. The fund is
exhausted. The board of commission
ers to let public contracts met We'd
nesday and adopted resolution recit-
ing the fact that the appropriation
for printing and binding for the two
years ending March 81, 1913, is eX-
hausted.
1t was further resolved that "the
beard declines to make any further
order for printing for any state de-
partment until further appropriation
shall be made by the general assem-
bly,, and that until such appropriation
shall be made, each department will
be expected to make arrangements,
privately and individually, for the
printing required for such depart
ments."
Attorney General Norwood says
that it hits his department hard, as he
has no fund for the printing of briefs.
He says that he does not think the act
passed several years ago making it a
felony to create deficit in any de-
partment, was not intended to apply
to any of the fixed and necessary ex-
penses of government.
Of the $4,000 appropriated, $15,-
1888 was expended by the secretary
Of state, but $10,975.83 was for print
ing the acts, and S2,714.75 for the SEN
ate and house journals.
The contract for printing briefs for
the attorney general is held by the
Conway Printing Company of this
city.
