CARE OF THE FURNITURE
Prudent Housekeeper viii Shun Pol
ish Recommended to "Cover
All Defects"

The prudent housekeeper Will be
as wary of doctoring her furniture
with polish that is recommended to
cover all defects" as she would be OF
a patent medicine which is guaran-
teed to cure every disease. The high
ly-pollshed surfaces of furniture have
often been ruined by too free use
Of n so-called polish which, not hav-
ing been rubbed dry, has hardened
and collects all of the dust before dry
ing, has caused n dull film to appear
over the polished surfaces. A simple
and effective polish for cleaning fur
niture and removing scratches is made
of one-third linseed oil and two-thirds
benzine. 1t should be applied with
paint brush which has very soft bris-
ties and rubbed dry with an old soft
piece of muslin or soft flannel. For
polishing. fold 1t into pad, sprinkle
few drops of alcohol over the surface
of the pad and rub the furniture firm
ly and quickly. Rub only small part
at time and be sure to rub until the
surface Is quite dry.

,TO BE coNTINUEDJ
The citizen-Republican. (Scotland, Bon Homme County, S.D.) 1???-19??, 1912-02-22

The good roads convention held
in Deadwood a short time ago
favored the construction of high
way from Brookings west through
Huron, Pierre and on to Rapid
City. This project did not meet
with the desires of those who live
along the other proposed route to
extend west from Sioux Falls thru
Salem, Mitchell and Chamberlain
and on to Rapid City, so another
convention has been called by
those interested in the latter route,
and this will be held in Mitchell
on March 7th. The plan is to
connect this line with the other one
at Wasta, and join with the pro-
moters of that line in building a
bridge across the Cheyenne river
at that point.
The citizen-Republican. (Scotland, Bon Homme County, S.D.) 1???-19??, 1912-02-22

The president has not always
done just as we would like to have
seen him do, but he has made a
splendid record. He has enacted
more constructive legislation du-
ring his first term than any of his
predecessors. He has compelled
more effective enforcement of ex-
listing laws than has any previous
administration. His arbitration
or peace treaty, if adopted by con-
gress, will do more toward stopping
the heavy drain on the national
treasury than can possibly be
imagined by the ordinary individ-
ual, Mr.. Taft has made a few
mistakes if we view his work from
a local standpoint. What presi-
dent has not2 Bnt he is president

tration and in justice to him he
should be given a second con-
secutive term. The greatness and
wisdom of his administration will
grow upon the people as the days
go by. With all our admiration
