Of the aggressive, vigorous and persistent type

Governor Frear's jurisdiction did not extend

amounted to clean sweep in the ranks CT the

drs,pped from the board. As nearly as he could,
the governor wiped the departments slate clean

There are no bullion porches In
this plan. 1t is cheaper to include the
porches under one roof, and there is
no objection to doing so when building
cottage house. There is no room
overhead where you will suffer from
a cold floor.
What is all right and proper for one
style of house often is all wrong for
another. 1t makes a great deal of diff
ference in building, whether a man
can go right along on one straight
job If you can start on plan and
work right around it without any
breaks, the work moves along quickly
from start TO finish; but if the men
have TO knock off now and then to
start some projection, this appears to
the contractor like commencing an
other job.
Modern plans are intended to util-
ize all the space within the four walls
to the best possible advantage, and
to design the exterior that is worth
the money it costs and is as
pleasing In appearance as possible;
but first of all, the house must be
comfortable.

OUT in WASHINGTON.

This note from the distant state OF
Washington shows that the Patrons on
the Pacific coast are wide awake, and
especially interested in promoting the
lines of their practical advantage:
Members of Winslow Grange have
purchased the store building and
warehouse now occupied by Hender-
son grocery, also the ground over
which they stand, including the tide
land fronting to deep water, with all
improvements, which include good
portion of the wharf now occupied
by the Eagle Harbor Transportation
company under lease. The purchase
of this property, however, gives a
clear right of way to deep water,
where a competition boat may land
as soon as wharf Is arranged. This
evidently means cheaper passenger
rates and better service for Winslow
and other Eagle Harbor points. Wins
low is only about eight miles from
Seattle and the passenger rates are
practically the same as from points
20 miles from Seattle, but the
people of Winslow have become
awakened at last to their needs and
rights and have taken the proper meth
cd to procure BOTH"

Portable rooms, and they are all con-

vision for heating the dining room d.

so, because there is stove in the

the heat from the kitchen, makes the
dining room warm enough during meal
time. 1t is not generally advisable
to make a living room of the dining

him to be irritated at the slightest

The lecturer of the small local

courage from these words of State

The Prisoners Plate.

A restaurant near the Tombs which
frequently supplies the city prisoners
with meals sent in dinner the other
day to a man awaiting trial for burg
larry. When the dishes came back a
message was found on the plate:
please cut bread thick; am a poor
man." The letters had been cut out of
a newspaper and pasted on the china
with wet bread. The good-natured
restaurant keeper made the slices of
bread extra thick and threw in a large
piece of apple pie with the next order.
When the dishes were returned a
grateful Thanks" was pasted on the
plate. No more messages were re-
ceived for a week, though the restau-
rant man saw that the prisoner always
got something extra. Then one day
the empty plate came back bearing
the prisoners farewell: "Good-by and
God bless you. I got seven years."

1t is difficult these times to build a
house for $1,000 but it can be done
If we hold our ambition sufficiently
In check. You can have good deal
of comfort in a $1,000 house if you
plant 1t on the right lot and arrange
1t with care to get the most for the
money. 1t is more difficult to plan
a satisfactory cheap house than good
house twice as large, because We are

You cannot run a hall down through
