floor. This floor is reached by stairs
leading from either side of the main
door on the west and from an
other stairs leading from the east en-
trance. The Offices IN this floor, six
III number, are 15x20 feet, with sup
Elementary working rooms off Of the
four principal Offices, below which are
storage vaults. These working rooms
are as large and as Well lighted as
the public Offices, but are provided
with vault doors and tile floors and
are fire-prOof. Iron stairways lead
from the working oom TO the storage
rooms below. The northeast office
will be occupied by the register of
deeds and the northwest office by the
clerk of courts and between the two
is located the office Of the county
judge. A small elevator leads from
the clerks office to the court
above to convey books and papers.
The county auditor Is located on the
southwest corner of this floor and
the southeast office is occupied by
the county treasurer. The county
commissioners room, where the
board meetings will be held, is be-
tween these two offices.
The third floor will be devoted al
most entirely to circuit court bust
ness. This floor is reached by a mar
BILE stairway leading from the east
side of the rotunda of the second
floor. The rotunda of the third floor
has a large well hole, which
gives a clear view of the dome from
the second floor. The court room, a
Dom 40X60 feet, occupies the greater
part of the north side of the third
floor. The decorations in this room
are especially fine, and it is lighted
by eight large chandeliers. The fur
niture is not yet in place, but it will
be of the most substantial kind, in
keeping with the general elegance of
the room. West of the court room
are the clerk of courts working room
and a consultation room, and off of
these on the south are the judges
chambers. On the south are two
rooms for men and women witnesses
and on the southwest corner are the
jury and the bailiffs' rooms. A stair
way leads from these rooms to the
fourth floor, under the dome, which
contains a private jury room. The
jury rooms, Judges chambers and
other rooms along the west side open
into a private corridor which leads
to the court room. On the southeast
corner of this floor is a grand jury
room and off of this on the north is
the states attorneys office. An iron
stairway leads from this floor to the
dome. The steel framework has been
put into place in the dome so that
a clock may be installed there at any
time the county sees fit go to do.
This summer the grounds. which
are badly torn up at present, will be
graded and seeded down again, and
in the course of a year or so the
court house block will be a thing of
beauty and a joy forever to every

Hints on Cleaning the Sink

Every sink should be provided with three-cornered sieve made by covering metal frame with very fine netting. When water is thrown into the sink it should be turned into this sieve, pre- venting the solid matter from getting into the pipes and causing trouble. Each time the dishes are washed the sink should be carefully cleaned. The quickest way is to dissolve teaspoonful of Gold Dust washing powder in hot water, rinse every portion of the sink with the Gold Dust solution, pouring some of the hot suds down the pipe to loosen the grease that may have gathered in the trap.
