An error commonly made by house owners is
in underestimating the necessity of proper sanitary
equipment for the kitchen.
Only a few years ago it was considered good
form to encase the sink , thereby concealing the trap
and pipe fixtures ; also providing a place for storing
kitchen utensils. This offers an opportune place
for collection of germs and vermin. You will be
horrified to examine and learn the true state of af
fairs in a sink of this kind. - *
Do not lose sight of'the fact that your food is
prepared in the kitchen and the utensils in which it
is prepared depend upon the sanitary arrangement
for cleanliness.
li there is need for improvent in your home , or
if you are going to build , come in and let us show
you our Green and Gold Label One-piece Sink.

CRITICISES HANNA
It is an unpleasant task for a
party newspaper to pass , criticism
upon one of its own party office
holders. Yet we believe that it is
the only safe course to pursued
That is , safe to secure and retain
party success. It is not our pur
pose to charge the state senator
from this district , David tHanna ,
with dishonesty in purpose or ac
tion in his official capacity as state
senator , for the reason that no
man is able at all times to judge
the true motives that prompt an
other's actions. But , to 'be as
charitable as possible , we must
say that he has acted unfaithful to ,
himself , his party , the state , and !
the people within the state , ancr *
forever precluded the possibility
of his ever being called upon lo !
serve the people in a like capacity
in the future. Two years -ago
when a member of the lower house
of our legislature he made a rec
ord that he and his friends might
justly feel proud of , and the * re ?
suit was that when Mr. Hanna
made it known that he would like
to be a candidate for the senate ,
no one else was talked of or thot
of for the place. It was generally
conceded that his very satisfactory
record in the house of representa
tive justly entitled him to a seat
in the senate this session. His
party went further than to give
aim the nomination. It made it
asy for him by adopting a clear
and distinct platform of principles
to guide him in his actions , but so
for as we have been able to follow
iis recor'd in ths , session that ' will
lose this week , his vote may be
: ound recorded with that of from
ihree to five ( railroad ) pluggers ,
whom the rest of the members
lave denounced as such. On the
2-cent fare bill his vote was ex
plained , that he was only opposed
to the emergency clause ; that oth
erwise he would have voted for
ihe bill. Now , to show our read
ers just what this amounts to let
us explain that the emergency
clause means that the bill should
secome a law immediately upon
ts passage and approval by the
governor. Without this clause ,
under the constitution the bill
would become a law after three
months. ThisNwas all that Mr.
ilanna objected to , according to
lis own words ; so he would vote
against the bill and kill it for the
sake of that short time. It may
i& that Senator Hanna has better
udgment than the Cow Boy and a
jetter idea of what would be jus
tice between the railroads and the
people than the people have them
selves , but no representative of
the people has a right to so assume
when they have given him a "hand
jook" of their wishes to carry
with him to the state capitol. The
Cow Boy is sorry that it cannot
give Senator Hanna any of the
credit , but it is pleased to say that
this republican legislature has car
ried out every one of * its pledges
to the people. We will say furth
er , that the democratic members ,
elected on a similar platform ,
stood nobly by the republican
members in all their efforts , and
are entitled to much more credit
than their party newspapers which
were eternally crying down ttie
efforts of the republican members.
