An artist in his chosen work is Mr..
Ellis, the sewing machine demon
strator, who has been at Foss &
Co. S store the past week. Some of
his work, done on the sewing mach
inc, would do credit to an artist who
uses crayons or oils.
The post-office at the present time
is the center Of activity, and Mr..
Sweeney and his assistants find that
if people would be little consider
ate it would help matters materially;
especially at mail time. 1t isn't
necessary to flock the post-offie upon
the immediate arrival of the train,
as it takes some time to sort the
pouches. and the confusion resultant
from the waiting box-holders con-
versing in the lobby, does not tend
to facilitate rapid delivery.

A Fourth of July is dark and
dismal failure without at least
one toy balloon illuminating the
sky In the near vicinity of any
little boys or little girls home.
But the toy ballons boys and
girls like best have become so ex-
pensive that many people are
forced to do without them. Now
there Is a way to have toy bal
looms for your children. First

a wood hoop and pair of scis-
sors.
The paper may be In several
colors, and the cores cut from
these pasted In alternately will
produce pretty array of colors
when the balloon is on its fight,
The cores for a 6-ft. balloon
should be about 8 II. long or about
one-third longer than the height
of the balloon. The widest part
of each gore is 16 in. The widest
place should be 53 1-2 In. from
the bottom end or a little over half
way from the bottom to the top,
The bottom of the gore is third
the width of the widest point. The

HOW TO KEEP SLEEVES
OUT OF WATER WHILE
WASHING YOUR HANDS

One of the annoyances OF wash
ing the hands at fixed lavatory
or wash basin is the tendency of
the sleeves to drop down, after
they have been rolled up, and
come in contact with the water.
This can be entirely done away
with by the fixing of two wire
guards to the side OF the basin,
as shown in the sketch. The
guards can be made of wire bent
to the proper shape and can be so
fixed that when not in use they
drop under the basin. If the arms
are inserted in the crotches of
the wire 1t will be found that the
sleeves can be kept away from
the water easily and there will
be no interference with compare
tive freedom of movement.

Parties May Join
to Guard Selves
Against "Moosers'

Republicans are talking Of the surprise
that may be In store for the bull moosers
when the annual fall registration rolls
around. They insist that they will see
to it that the registrars o. voters pro-
tect the personnel of the two great
parties and compel bull moosers to reg
lister as affiliated with the national pro-
gressve party or whatever name the
Roosevelt party is to take. 1t is said
that the republicans and the democrats
are likely to unite in protecting their
future primaries from being packed" by
the national progresslves."
Those who are CTscussmg this matter
hold that since Roosevelt has sent forth
the edict that his followers must for
swear allegiance to their old parties II
they wish to set under the banner Of
his new party. it follows that those
voters must not register as still being
affiliated with one or the other Of the Old
parties. Support of the national ticket,
they hold, Is the test of allegiance TO d
party and should govern the reglstra'
ton.
