Another way TO avoid the turned-up
corners of rugs is to sew a pocket OF
some cheap material on the underside
OF each corner; then slip in a piece of
tin, which you can have cut the ex-
act size at a hardware store. The
corners cannot curl.
The Care Of Mating.
The broom, even the covered one, is
not good for mating, and neither Is
the frequent use of the wet cloth. The
carpet-sweeper. used across the grain,
is better; and the vacuum-cleaner Is,
of course, best Of all. But in be-
tween the latter two comes the hearth.
brush, which is a llfe-preserver to the
mating and labor-saver to the
housewOrker. To 60 over a mating
covered room with a dustpan and one
of these brushes is matter of only
few minutes. These soft-halr
brushes, thus used, raise little dust /;
they keep the mating and the corr
ners in proper condition, and they do
not roughen and injure the matting's
surface. Another merit Is that they
may be washed without injury If they
are quickly dried
To Lay Straw Mating Smoothly.
This is a hard thing to do as the
cheaper grades are likely to get
wrznkled and to wear in ridges.
When you put the mating down, get
1t us smooth as possible; then, with a
pail Of hot water, to which a cupful
of common salt has been added, mop
and wash the mating as II 1t were
dirty. Use the salt water freely, renew
Ing often enough to keep II hot. Wash
with the grain Of the mating, and
leave 1t quite damp. In drying, the
will shrink into place. The
salt toughens the straw and prevents
1t from breaking.

The Man had died on the cross.
And they laid him In the tomb;
The Living Stone in the stone,
The Rock In the rock-hewn room:
They left him alone with Death,
And sealed the stone at the door;
They made the sepulchre sure,
And set their watch before.
Lest his friends should steal him

And say that he rose" they said.
But Life escaped from Death,
And the Goldman rose from the

Hints for House Cleaning Time.

hints for House Cleaning Time.
Having cleaned floors, woodwork
and furniture, the attention turns natu.
rally to floor coverings which need
frequent cleaning. Waxed floors
should rarely be washed except
before rewaxing, and a wood floor
can be kept from scratches II
the legs of the chairs and tables have
bit of felt pasted on the bottom.
For this purpose old felt hats may
be used.
Care OF Rugs.
Good rugs can be safely scrubbed,
and professional rug cleaners do this
work very successfully. II is a good
idea to stipulate that they are to be
simply scrubbed with suds when
turning them over to the cleaner, for
sometimes bleach is used on them.
Scrubbing is perhaps the most salts
factory method Of cleaning a first
class rug, but might prove fatal to
one made of poor material or dyed
with inferior colors. Nearly all rugs
redye well, but this is work for
professional, and not for the house
keeper.
Ordinarily all that is needed is
vacuum cleaner TO keep rugs
thoroughly clean. II you have none,
take your rugs into the yard
and sweep them thoroughly with
broom. This will keep the wallpaper
and hangings clean, and you won't
have to breathe the dust which you
are sweeping. A good sweeping with
the carpet sweeper will do In the
meantime.
To Keep a Rug Flat.
When the edge Of rug persists in
curling up, lay over 1t, ON the wrong
side, damp cloth, and on this place
a moderately hot iron. Let 1t stand
for few minutes and the steam will
make the rug lie perfectly fiat.
An old corset steel dress-stay, or
piece OF stiff wire cat-stitched dag
onally at the corners, on the wrong
side Of much used tapestry rug, will
keep It from curling up.

IT'S HERE
PRISONERS GET TWO YEARS
MORE FOR ESCAPING
Two Additional Years Added to Terms
Of State Penintentiary Conyicts
For Escaping From Pen.

Two additional years were added to
the terms Of ten convicts tried in the
Franklin circuit court yesterday on
the charge of escaping from the peni-
Tertiary or escaping from guard
while employed on road work in the
State. The custom heretofore has
been to add one year for this offense,
but Warden Pythian Is inclined to the
opinion that heavier sentences for this
offense will cause fewer convicts to
escape.
Ernest Sprouse, of Covington, asked
that the verdict in his case be set aside
as he was of the opinion that he was
pleading guilty to sentence Of one
year instead Of two. The court COM
piled with his request.
In the list is Joe Vending, who is
serving life sentence for murder and
recently made a sensational escape
from the Frankfort Reformatory, and
eluded the officers with a disguise Of
woman.
The other convicts getting the add.
tional sentences are c. c. White, Boyt

II am convinced that his future will
depend on the action taken on the
Covenant. If the League is defeated,
great pressure will be brought to bear
upon Mr.. Wilson, he will be persuaded
to run for a third term, and will un-
doubtedly be elected. If the League is
successful the pressure for another adj
ministration will not be nearly SO great
and the President will probably retire
from national politics to consider world
problems as they develop under the

CITY MUST PAY
FOR NEMET DEATH
Supreme Court Sustains
Verdict of $3.50 Against
the City In Beach
Drowning Case.
CITY MUST PROTECT BEACHES
Contract With Greiling Brothers Fails
TO Save City From Being Held Liable
For Drowning Accident Which
Took Place Years Ago.
CITY MUST PROTECT BEACHES

The city of kenosha must pay $3.50
in damages and a considerable sum in
interest to Eva Nemet for the loss of
her son, Steve Nemet, who was drown
ed at the Washington Island bathing
beach several years ago.
This was the decision Of thes Wiscon-
sin Supreme Court on Tuesday when
decision was handed down affirming
the holding of the lower court in which
the city had been held responsible for
the death Of Nemet and damages to
the amount named in the verdict as
sessed by the jury.
The court held in affirming the judg-
ment of the lower court, that it was
necessary for the city Of Kenosha
to give proper protection to public
bathing beaches.
Nemet was drowned in hole in the
beach several hundred yards south Of
the public bathing beach on the island.
At the time the Greiling Brothers Con-
struction company of Green Bay had
contract with the dity for the in
stallation of the intake for the new
water plant and in laying the intake the
company had left deep hole in the
beach. Nemet had gone to the beach
on Saturday afternoon. He could
not swim and he waded out and got
into the hole which had been left I'M
guarded. On the trial the city dis
claimed liability on the ground that it
was the duty of Greiling Brothers to
properly guard the beach during the
construction work. The court dis
charged Greiling Brothers as a defen-
dant in the case and held the city, hold
ing that the beach was a public bath
ing beach and that the city must pro-
tect people against losing their lives
there. After the drowning of Nemet the
city took steps to protect the beach and
since that time the recurrence Of such
an accident at public beach in Keno
sha has been declared almost impossi-
BILE. City Attorney John G. Slater,
who battled through two courts for the
city with the case, held from the first
that he believed it very probable that
the city would be held liable for
the. death Of Nemet. The total judg-
ment against the city will be in the
neighborhood of $2,250.
The city will make an effort to col
lect the amount Of the judgment from
the Green Bay contractors and money
was withheld when the payment of the
contract was made, with the under
standing that the city would demand
that the contractors take care Of any
Judgment granted in the case. The
contractors may however decline to
make any settlement and insist that
the city prove its claim against them
in court.
