HOW TO PAPER A WALL.

Did you ever try to paper wall?
This is work that people seldom
think OF doing for themselves, no
matter how they may wish to econ.
omize In household expenditures.
Yet II is very simple work. II one
has time and patience; and the saw.
ing in money Is we'll worth consid-
GRAFTON.
In the first place, paperer con-
sumes considerable time In tearing
OF the old paper. This preparatory
work you could do quite easily; yet
you pay him for HIS time. Again,
workmen in a small house cause
great inconvenience. and are not
likely to "clean up" neatly when
they leave--a point that counts for
much with the careful housewife.
The appliances needful for wall
papering are: Paste. a pair OF
shears, board set over the backs Of
two chairs, and two brushes--one
large. soft. for putting on the paste,
the other small and stiff for smooth
ing the paper when IL is hung.
To make the paste: Sift the -four
well, add one ounce OF pulverized
alum TO each pound OF -four, mix
thoroughly with cold water, then
pour boiling water over II quickly,
stirring constantly. When the paste
swells and becomes yellow II is
done: but IT must not be used until
cool.
Trim the paper close TO the pat
tern on one side. and cut OF several
full lengths from floor to ceiling.
Lay a length of paper on the long
board and spread evenly with the
paste. Lift the wet strip carefully.
and hold 1t opposite fits selected
space on the wall. Adjust the top
carefully. and then smooth the strip
evenly down the wall with a soft
cloth.
II Is safer to cut the paper a tribe
longer than Is needed. When the
strip IL fully adjusted to the wall
run the edge Of the shears across
the paper where II meets the base
board. Then cut evenly across the
denied line, and the paper VIII
meet the Dashboard exactly
Go over the newly adjusted strip
with the stiff brush. pounding II
gently and coaxing out wrinkles.
Save all the remnants OF paper for
the door and window spaces.

SO.CALLED HUMANE
SOCIETY SLATED FOR
THE POLITICAL AXE

The governor is determined to
end one political machine known
as the Humane society, a private
corporation built up by and under
the control of + X. Whitehead, +,
secretary OF a board of fifteen.
The board permits Whitehead to
do about as he pleases both in re-
gard to the authority he exercises
and the expenditure of money.
He has thus managed to keep him
self feeding at the public crib for
the past fifteen years and has used
the states power, illegally given
him, for his private or political
ends.
Whitehead is charged with hav-
ing succeeded in securing the pass
ago of the following laws to per-
petuate the life of the society and
keep himself in office:
The right to have the state pay
its private officers and agents ap-
pointed by it's private board, as per
numerous general appropriation
bills since 1901, giving them over
$4,000 out of the public treasury
The right of a district attorney
to file complaints and informations
in certain felony and misdemeanor
charges in courts of record.
The right without writ of pro-
cess, If in their judgment they
think it il necessary, to invade the
sanctity OF q mans home and take
his child away.
The right to forbid private
homes or Institutions to care for
children.
Also many other rights have
been granted to sheriffs, police
mon and other officers at the insti-
cation of Whitehead. In the pres
ent legislature he has had the
amazing gall to extend his power
over the schools of the state.
Whitehead and Judge Ben Lind
say have always been at logger
heads. Whitehead has probably
reached his limit.

FOOT AND MOUTH DISEASE

Under the recent urgent def
cheney act which was signed by the
president on January %, $780,
coo is now available for the eradi-
cation Of the foot and mouth dis
ease. Up to January l, 1915, the
outbreak had cost the federal gov
srnment a total of S2,l29, 1854.
OF this sum l,S4O, 1913 80 repre-
sent's the federal governments
share of the expense of slaughter
ing affected herds and REIN bursting
the owners for their loss, of which
the government pays half and the
individual states the remainder.
The figures show that exclusive of
the work in January 101, ,l76 ami
mails have been slaughtered. OF
these 46,26S were cattle, 47,735
swine and the remainder sheep
and goats.
The money now at the disposal
OF the department Of agriculture
will, it 10 believed, aid the cam
paign against the pestilenoe by en-
abling the government to make
prompt payment to all owners of
infected herds and thus minimize
the reluctance of farmers to have
their stock slaughtered. In Hi
nois, for example, approximately
100000 10 now available for this
purpose. The loss in that state
has bssn larger than in any other,
1915 animals altogether having
been slaughtered. Pennsylvania
comes next With 1886 animals

FREE LECTURE AND

PICTURE SHOW
Arrangements have been COM
pleted by the Mountain States Tele-
phone and Telegraph company for :.
very interesting entertainment to
be staged in Monte Vista on Thurs
day evening, March 4th. commenc-
ing at eight o'clock. The admis-
sion will be free, and the entertain
ment will be held at the Iris Thea
ter.
This is something new and novel
for Monte Vista, and should prove
to be very interesting, as well as
instructive. and especially to tele-
phone subscribers. The pr gra"
will consist of 100 beautifully col
ored stereopticon slides of the tcle-
phone business from the crude and
clumsy instrument Of 1876 to the
present up-tO-date telephone.
A reel of moving pictures made
by the Pathe Freres company will
be produced, showing something Of
the inside and outside workings Of
the Bell system from tn. largest
exchange in the world-New York
City-to the laying Of the sub
marine cable on the bottom of the
San Francisco bay. This ie very
wonderful picture and has been
taken especially for this purpose.
In addition to these telephone
pictures, many slides of beautiful
scenery in the Yellowstone Park,
the Grand Canyon, and other places
of interest. will shown. Mr.. Fin
ley of the Mountain States Tele-
phone and Telegraph company will
deliver an interesting lecture dur
ing the pictures.
Mr.. Finley carries everything
with him necessary to put on one of
the finest entertainments that ever
came to Monte Vista. His itinerary
takes in practically every town in
the seven mountain states in which
the telephone company operates,
and as it will take long time to
complete the circle it is only pos
sible to put on one entertainment
in Monte Vista at this time.
AS explained by the Telephone
company, this is not an advertising
stunt in any way. but after consid-
cradle thought on the subject, and
after many requests for Just this
sort of an entertainment, the Tele-
phone company has adopted the pic
ture and lecture game as the best
| method to enlighten the people, and
especially telephone patrons, to the
inside of the immense system of
which they are an important part
Instead of an advertising scheme it
is an interesting. get-acquainted
and instructive entertainment.
Nothing is required for admis-
sion. 1t is free, and every one is
invited to attend this high class
performance. Children are well
come provided they are accom-
panied by adults.

TWO HEADS CONFUSE CHICK.
Staten Island Freak Whines Every
Time it Tries to Walk.

Stories of freak chickens that have
come along in the spring brooding
season have been read with much in
terest by farmers on Staten Island,
but they had not heard of any freaks
In their vicinity up to yesterday Then
August Woeckner, who has farm
On Willow Brook road, Port Richmond,
met several of his neighbors in Bit
terli's restaurant on Richmond turn
pike and informed them about won
derful two-headed chicken born few
hours before on his farm.
This is the most unusual chicken
you ever saw" he explained. 1T has
two heads, one in front and the other
where the tail ought to be, so you
never can tell which is the front head.
The body is long and it only has two
legs.
1T stands on its feet, all right, but
then it has trouble The legs start to
walk in one direction when the front
head wants them to start moving.
l0en the DdCk netu Wants W 10 SOihc
where else. and the chicken keeps
walking forward and backward all the
time, keeping in a straight line only
a few inches long. Every once In a
while the mother hen comes back to
get the chicken, because it can't fol-
low the brood when the two heads
get opposite notions When she
cackles for it to follow her both heads
try to go after her. Well, the head
that's furthest away from the mother
hen starts to turn round, putting the
other head at the further end. Then
that head starts to turn round, and
finally the chick is going around like
whirling dervish."
All the farmers were eager to see
the freak, so they asked Woenecker
to take them to the farm.
ITS no USE" he said. MY cousin,
who lives way out in Long Island,
came in for a visit this morning. He
took a fancy to the chick and | gave
il TO him. He took II home and is
going to try to raise more like IT,
