HAVE FINE OVEN.

Iowa City, March 7.-Seven hundred
degrees of heat Is possible in the new
oven which has been manufactured at
the university for experimental pur-
poses in the physics department by W.
E. Tisdale, graduate assistant, and NJ.
H. Teeuwen, instrument maker. THIS
is the most satisfactory oven which
the physics department has used, al
though some costing as much as $17O
have been part Of the equipment Of the
laboratories.

endured less ana GARY went 10
church only every other Sunday. He
told her several things he thought OF
things. Her art was silly her work
useless, her aim purposeless and her
ambition not worthy of her. He spoke
of dicky birds, frog ponds and finally
in fine frenzy of rage, he had men,
toned something about the damned
weeds she made the kids draw.
Eldred put the cozy over the teapot
and drew a sharp breath. What could
be more foolish" she asked herself,
"than for a full grown man to chase
a little ball around for miles every
day? And yet he says that my work
is silly" Her eyes flashed. Some
day and somehow, I'm going to get
even for all the tears I've shed, silly
goose that I've BEEN"
Through a tiny isinglass window she
could see her enemy in the distance
trying to dig his ball out Of the, sand
ditch. Two, three, four he was out!
But she knew he was fuming ana she
laughed again. The next shot landed
him in the water moat around a green.
ooh, how very, very funny, she
cried. 1--WE heard him talk golf in the
most awesome terms. If some offthose
people in town could only see him now
=" She stopped, struck with sudden
idea as she watched him on his stom-
ach trying to fish the ball out Of the
water with club.
Billy Hawkins, cartoonist for the
Daily News had made this remark be-
fore he went away on his vacation:
I'm off for two weeks. If you see any
thing good, send it In, particularly II
you can get anything on any one

Eldred put the tea things away and
got out her sketch book. -, e. -
One morning, week later, Gary Os:
worth opened his mail on the porch of
the clubhouse before going out to play
On the front page of the Daily News
he spied six sketches and this legend
in large type: "Our Superintendent at
Golf" ~"
There he was ridiculous in all sorts
of contortions, doing everything but
hitting the ball, acting generally like

Then he went out to his game and
vented his wrath on the turf, the air
and the ball when he could hit it.
And the ball, going wild upon one oc'
casion, swerved to the left, out through
the leaves of an oak and hit a young
lady who had stepped out of her cot

Now there were five cottages all

Gary Osworth didn't see the ball hit
Eldred but he went in search Of it and
found her lying unconscious on the
ground, her arm still around huge
mass of yellow goldenrod. The ball

A WOMAN WROTE to me recently, say
Ing that she was we'll built all over,
and not fat, but that her abdomen
was large, and that 1t seemed to
throw her whole figure out OF bal
ance. I wrote her directions on ex-
ercising and standing, which will be
repeated here.
Not so many women are troubled
this way; a large abdomen usually
goes with too much flesh. In this
case, however, 1t was due to the fact
that the woman had stood all wrong,
and that she had either worn . bad
corset or none at all.
Corsets have a lot to do with the
size Of the abdomen. I never advise
them for q young girl, or slender
woman, they restrict the movements
of the body and II tight they inter-
fere with circulation-but for a
woman who has passed the turn of
maturity, whose flesh 10 getting
flabby, or ill.shaped. then I advise
corsets.'' e.. sss ~. -.
A, woman with q protruding alb
domen should wear corsets made OF
brocade or heavy coutil, we'll boned,
though not neavy. She should pay
as much as she can afford. for them,
and if possible get them fitted to her
figure. Corsets are worth every cent
paid for them-but cheap corsets are
things to be- avoided. They do harm
and no good at all. 5.st'.-
You can reduce the flesh about the
abdomen this way also-by standing
on one foot. then raising the right
foot, clasping the knee with the
hands and drawing it as close to the
body as possible. Repeat this three
times, then repeat the exercise again
standing ON the other foot.

INVITED TO MERIDIAN.

The Ada county central committee
OF the republican party meets at
Boise to-day TO plan precinct pri-
maries 70 elect delegates to county
convention This convention will in
turn select delegates to Twin Falls
state convention next month, where
delegates TO the national convention
at Chicago, to be held in April, WILDE
selected. While these conventions
will select delegates they will have
equally important duties in planning
the proper representation. giving the
various localities their share.
1t Is understood that President
A. w Garrett. OF the Meridian
Booster club and Precinct Commit
men j. f. Baird, and Col. e. Mars
ters, viii go to Boise to-day and in
vite the county convention to meet
at Meridian. This convention will
meet In about two weeks, and will
consist OF about 200 precinct dele
gates from different parts OF Ada
county

we Need Representation.

There has been a growing dissat-
ests are, yet he is required to repre-
isfaction among the people of this
part of Ada county on account of
our epresentation--or lack of rep
resentation-on the board of county
commissioners. 1t is not necessary to
discuss Mr. Manse Coffin, nor his adj
ministration, but when the interests
of his own district, and the city have
met in conflict, he has always favor
ed the former. Boise is practically
his home, and it is where his inter-
sent district miles away, which is
asking too much of any man! 1t is
time the big section of country
around Meridian and Kuna had a
friend on the board.
1t might be argued that the present
member was not elected by the peo-
pie of this sectio of the county, but
by Boise votes and that the same
method can be put over" this fall.
We hardly think in view of the en-
phatic protest that has been regis
tered that our Boise friends will re-
peat the offense, and, they say that
this fall they will keep hands off
and allow the western half of the
county to select its own candidate.
