TELEPHONE NOTES.

The Wausau Telephone and the
Wisconsin Telephone Companies are
about to change their lines running
about mile above Rothschild. As
it is the lines are along the old high
way and go through the yards and
property of the Marathon Paper Mills
Company. Polls will be set up along
the new highway and the lines
changed thereto
The Wausau Telephone Company is
preparing TO open another farmers
telephone line out into the town of
Maine and very soon have ten or
twelve phones connected with the
central office
The Farmers Eastern Telephone
company has been dissolved. About
a year and half ago there was a
movement started to form telephone
company, its stockholders being the
| farmers of the eastern part of our
county. Articles of Incorporation
were entered into but the farmers
did not know whether they wanted
10 launch the venture. The idea was
for the new company to take over
the line of the Wausau Telephone
company running out to Glandon and
make it the main lead for the Farm
ers' Eastern Co.'S line. The Wausau
company was DESTROYS of combining its
work TO the city. The matter of
forming the new farmers company
was postponed for year, in the mean
time the Wausau Telephone Co., was
TO continue with the work. A meet
ing of the farmers who had subscribed
for stock was held last week and it
was voted to dissolve. So the Wausau
Telephone Co. will continue in the
work of building up lines which will
reach every farm in the eastern part
of Marathon county. The lines now
reach to Glandon and q portion of
the Anfwa Telephone company's lines
have been purchased taking in a
large number of farmers, who before
could not get Wausau without, paying
high rate for each message. About
fifty farmers are connected with our
city telephone system, having unlim-
ite1 use at the same price as is charged
for residence phones.

How the Body May Be Robbed of lts
Heat and Vitality.
A cold floor is one that.conducts heat
away from the body, not necessarily
one that is cold in itself A wooden
floor and a stone floor exposed to the
cold will in themselves have no great
difference in temperature But one
may walk barefooted over a wooden
floor with comparative comfort, no
matter how cold the weather, while a
stone floor will seem to freeze the feet.
On the other hand, IN a warm room
the stone floor will he warmer than the
wooden floor, for 1t will take up the
heat Thus the heat from a radiator
standing on a stone or tile floor will
make it warm for several feet in every
direction, but it win affect the wooden
floor only very slightly A cold floor,
therefore, is not a floor which sends
cold into the body through the feet.
but one which takes away the body

Life consists in keeping up the body
heat 1t is in order 10 get sufficient
body heat that we eat and to retain 1t
that we wear clothes. Were there no
wind and if we moved hardly at all
clothes would not be necessary. be
cause the heat of the body would keep
layer of heated air about us all the
time. But the wind and our natural
movements constantly disperse this
layer Of heated air, and in consequence
we wear clothes TO keep this layer in.
"A summer GOODNESS is secured by
loose clothing, which lets the wind
blow away the heated air; in spring
and fall more closely woven garments
keep the heated air near. In very colo
weather furS are used. because the
skin and the fur afford powerful re-
sistance to the escape OF body heated

Those amendments.

The amendments, which the pro-
greSSive republicans were so anxious
10 have passed, 50 that they could
work further reforms" and thus
pile on the taxes higher and higher,
were defeated. They were wanted
only as means of adding very
large army of republican Office hold
ers. 1t is hoped that Philip when
he gets into the governors chair win
los off several thousand of these use
less offices. We do notneed a machine
to keep political parties in existence,
but the nearer we get to letting the
people decide who shall and who shall
not WELD the power, the better it will
be for all concerned. That the people
voted against the amendments and
thus decided not TO enter into CON-
petition in business affairs is long
step away from socialism.

The city aud County Vote.

A study of the returns in this coun-
ty shows heavy democratic gains in
nearly every town. The vote in the
city is what defeated every demo-
cratic county officer who lost and
that unquestionably was caused by
the oft-repeated but effective scare
that was thrown into the labor vote
of the city. We presume that the
blowing of the factory whistles for
work on Wepnesday morning after a
day of enforced silence was due
wholly to the election of Phillip.
The slump in prosperity week be-
fore election is significant but the
soup mouse cry did not reach the
country and the sudden revival of
prosperity is suspicious to say the
least. 1t is an, old trick but it
worked in the city of Wausau.

that they did it all with their editor
ialettes. They have shown the faIlacy
of the Wilson policies and the people
of the United States have listened to
their advice. They outlined the re-
publican state campaign long ago and
the people OF Wisconsin at once sat
up and took notice. They defeated
the amendments. They successfully
attacked commissions and were the
first to call attention to high taxes.
Above all else, they stood alone in
