Ths chor n sngng Amerca and durng the evenng Battle Cry of the war and ts actvtes and whether wll depend upon the duraton of the Republc, The Red, Whte and t s brought to our doors or fought Blue, and The Star Spangled Ban upon the hgh seas and Europeon ner were sung. Mrs. Howard Kan sang two solos of a patrotc nature and Mss Gladys Thompson sang a contralto solo, War. Mayor Robert G. Poole presded and Rev. Charles Everett, pastor of the Presbyteran church, offered prayer. Rev. Dr. Ussher, who has been at the seat of war n Europe and saw t n all ts horrors, brought a message to Belmar people whch, though voced n eloquent and patrotc language, warmed ctzens to acton. He stated that the Amercan people were decevng themselves n thnkng we wll not have actual warfare and that to lose even twenty-four hours n actve preparaton s a crme. He told of how poorly prepared we are to look after the sck and wounded and as a result of unpreparedness stated that n the Spansh-Amercan war only 293 of our men were klled n battle but that 3,68 ded n camp before reachng the front because we could not take care of them and because some who were so anxous to make money sent down embalmed beef for the solders to eat. Mr. Ussher stated that we had sent our blankets, bandages, and all Red Cross supples to the battlefelds of Europe and that we had practcally nothng left here of these necessares. He urges all who are not n the servce of ther country n some other capacty to afflate themselves wth the Red Cross, statng that those who take frst ad work are n no way oblged to go to the front and that only traned nurses can go n that professonal capacty, others as assstants. The speaker told of some of the work whch cvlans can do and stated that the best brans n every communty are needed. He- descrbed the dfference between a chapter, a branch, and an auxlary. A chapter has ursdcton over a certan terrtory authorzed by the natonal headquarters, a branch s a local organzaton workng under the chapter and an auxlary a unt of at least ten people dong Red Cross work. There can be one or several auxlares n a town. There has been no dvson of opnon n Belmar as to the need of dong Red Cross work and no desre on the part of ts ctzens to shrk ther responsblty and one of the frst nqures sent to natonal headquarters from Monmouth county askng nstructons for formng a socety came from Belmar. t was sent n by the Grls club on the ce of Dr. F. V. Thompson. Ths club organzed an auxlary wth twentythree members and the number was soon ncreased to forty, who have been recevng nstructon n frst ad work. There had, however, exsted n the mnds of many a doubt as to the sablty of Belmar assumng the responsblty of a chapter and t wtas only after consderable dscusson at an mpromptu meetng of a number of representatve men and women of the borough, followng the publc meetng Sunday nght, that t was decded to petton natonal headquarters for permsson to organze a chapter to nclude Avon, Belmar, Sprng Lake and Sea Grt to the Manasquan rver and westerly to meet the Freehold chapter. Ths petton was sent n Tuesday and was sgned by Mayor Robert G. Poole, Belmar; Mayor O. H. sol. t would, however, seem that there may be plenty of work for Monmouth county socetes n the near future as t s stated ort good authorty that 48,000 men are to be placed n camps n the county. W. B. Bamford was elected temporary charman at the meetng and Mrs. Donald Sterner was chosen temporary secretary. Dr. Hassler was n New York Tuesday and presented the applcaton for a chapter whch Was granted by Albert W. Staub, drector of the Atlantc dvson of the Amercan Red Cross. A meetng to form a permanent organzaton wll be called wthn a few days when offcers wll be elected and persons apponted to serve on these commttees : Enrollment, publcty and nformaton, fnance, headquarters, cooperaton and extenson, mltary relef and cvlan relef. The duty of the enrollment commttee s to secure new members and nterest stmulated by the present stuaton should result n a large membershp. The duty of the publcty commttee s to gve frequent and adequate nformaton of the chapter s actvtes and to handle the present stuaton and the possble developments. The duty of the fnance commttee s at once apparent to everyone. t s, however, not expected that the chapter wll be oblged to make an mmedate appeal for funds, but competent men and women wll be placed on ths commttee to handle the stuaton when needed. f condtons develop whch requre open headquarters, thes commttee havng that part of the work n hand wll meet the stuaton, though t s qute probable that volunteers can be found to drect the headquarters. The work of the mltary commttee may develop nto a momentous one. mportant among ts dutes are the purchasng or requstonng of materals, dstrbuton and collecton, packng and shppng. Already classes, whch nclude the entre membershp of the Grls club, are recevng nstructons n work whch wll come under ths department. The nstructons are gven by Drs. W. A. Newbold, F. V. Thompson and J. W. Hassler. The courses nclude ten lessons n frst ad, ffteen lessons n elementary hygene and home care of the sck, ffteen lessons n detetcs and eght lessons n preparaton of surgcal dressngs, hosptal garments and supples. So many are takng the course n frst ad that the classes have been dvded nto three dvsons. One of the dvsons s nstructed Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday evenngs. Another dvson s nstructed Monday, Wednesday and Frday evenngs and the thrd dvson has afternoon nstructons on Tuesdays, Thursday and Saturdays. The nstructons are gven n the Publc lbrary.

The obect of ths request was to engage all Amecan eyes possble n watchng the approaches to Amercan coasts, and thus to assst the navy, whose vessels cannot be everywhere, and whch would be avoded by craft engaged n overt employments n Amercan waters.

Ths clean-up campagn s an annual one and the manner of conductng t s so well-known to all resdents of the borough that t seems hardly necessary at ths tme to say more than that all rubbsh as ashes, tn cans and such refuse as s lable to accumulate on one s premses durng the wnter months s carted away at the expense of the borough.

Ths wll gve the department 3,000 feet of usable hose. Borough Attorney H. R. Cooper called attenton to a recent law passed by the legslature whch gves muncpaltes ncreased power. He sad that he had ust receved a copy and had not had tme to look t over but would do so and tell further of t at the next meetng. Counclman Housel reported that he had gven orders for a lght to be placed at Thrteenth avenue and C street and another on Ffteenth avenue between A and B streets. But one bd for btumnous coal for the water works was receved. That was entered by the Berwnd- Whte Mnng company of whom the borough has purchased ts soft coal for a few years back. The company s bd was $3.50 a ton at the mnes and the present freght rate from the mne to Belmar s $2.0 makng the coal cost $5.50 here. Ths s exactly $ hgher than last year s contract prce. The Mayor and Clerk were authorzed to enter nto a contract wth the company to furnsh 600 tons, more or less. Three bds were receved for 500 lneal feet, more or less of concrete sdewalk. Bds of Heynger Bros, and J. E. Newman were exactly alke, beng fourteen cents a square foot for walk and twenty-fve cents a foot for curbng. The bd of E. F. Benton was twelve cents a square foot for walk and twenty-two cents for curbng. He was awarded the contract. Authorty was gven for a walk on Tenth avenue across the ralroad grounds to be of the same specal formaton as the one lad last year on Nnth avenue and ths contract wll be gven to Heynger Bros, "who bult the Nnth avenue walk. The ralroad company wll be asked to stand ts share of the expense as t dd on the other walk. No one seemed anxous for the garbage contract, but one bd beng entered, that of W llam Kearney, who s the present contractor. Hs bd was $,500 a year, ether for one or fve years and he was gven the contract for the longer perod. Mr. Kearney proposed to put on motor trucks thus enablng hm to make hs daly rounds n less tme than formerly. He was asked to enter a bd for collectng ashes, tn cans and paper. Former Mayor C. H. Gbbs offered the use of twenty acres of land to the borough free of charge to be used as a muncpal potato patch. The councl, however, dd not thnk the plan could be carred through successfully n vew of the scarcty of experenced farm help. There are several persons n and around the borough who are offerng ther vacant lots wthout cost to any persons who desre to rase vegetables. The Clerk was nstructed to wrte to the Board of Freeholders expressng the thanks of the Councl for the assstance the Board rendered n the street mprovement at Rver road and F street. The approaches to F street now from both Ffth avenue and Rver Road are broad and the dangerous corners have been.elmnated. n order to perfect ths mprovement the Freeholders pad Thomas Murphy for a strp of land adonng the Casno lot.

By LO U SE K ERPER, Charman Cvc Commttee, O ho federaton of Women's Clubs W OMEN are housekeepers. They are apt to see more clearly the need of muncpal housecleanng than are men. Through our clubs we have an excellent opportunty to lead n Clean Up and Pant Up work. Here are some ponters for women who would help regenerate ther communty wth a real Clean Up and Pant Up campagn: Each campagn nvolves the renovaton of the nterors of buldngs as well as yards, streets and alleys. The removal of all rubbsh and useless thngs s most mportant. Some revenue can be derved from the sale of waste paper. Durng the Clean Up and Pant Up campagn s a good tme to have rubbsh cans placed upon street corners, for the depost of paper. Nothng wll do more to mprove the appearance of a town than the lberal use of pant. Useless and unsghtly outbuldngs should be torn down. Busness houses need attenton. Rubbsh accumulates n cellars, under starways, n storerooms, passageways, and n the rear of hotels and restaurants. Look out for RATS here. A clean yard s not suffcent; t should be pleasng to the eye. Plant grass and flower seeds. Sod bare spots n lawns. Plant shrubs, vnes and trees. The thresholds of a town should be made nvtng to the vstor. Ths s a good tme to fnd out about the santary ordnances of the town. How about the regulatons n regard to garbage collecton, the use of closed garbage cans, manure ples, spttng, tolets, etc.? Are they adequate? Are they enforced? Appont a commttee on ths subect. Have the ordnance publshed and dstrbuted wdely. t s very mportant that the Clean Up and Pant Up dea be mpressed upon the mnds of school chldren. GREATER THAN FRE LOSS By PRO F. H. H. K N G K&xuns State Agrcultural College* L ACK of pant causes a greater annual loss through deteroraton than the aggregate Kansas fre loss for twelve months. Yes, there s much more reason for a real Clean Up and Pant Up campagn than the average layman would at frst recognze. Pant, as has often been sad, serves more than the mere purpose of decoraton. ts prncpal value les n the fact that t prolongs the lfe of the surfaces panted. Wood and ron, on exposure to the a$, undergo a slow process of oxdaton, whch ust as surely destroys them as though they were set on fre, the dfference beng the speed at whch the reacton occurs. We take out nsurance to cover loss by fre and should ust as surely put on pant to cover loss by decay. t takes very lttle calculaton to dscover the apparently astoundng fact that the loss through lack of pantng s greater n Kansas than the loss by fre. When the property owner comes to a full realzaton of the true reason for pantng there wll be no need for publc-sprted people to back up a Natonal Campagn for such a purpose. as gratae (?& sag sra s BEEfS*!

T s not surprsng that houses whch are for rent should be wthout tenants, because n most cases such houses are unpanted, the steps are rckety and the porches not n repar. The number of vacant houses n any cty s largely due to the neglgence of the landlord hmself. recently took two lades out, tryng to fnd for them a desrable sx or seven-room house to rent. was unable to fnd anythng to sut them, ether on my own lst or on the lsts of other real estate frms, and these lades were not exactng n ther wants. They were shown a few houses of the desred sze, but the houses were not n good condton. t s true that some of the landlords say they are wllng to make certan repars for a good tenant, but t has been my experence after years n the busness, that t s best to put your house n attractve shape frst and you wll quckly get a tenant. Houses that are kept repared and panted not only rent better, but they greatly mprove the looks of the cty. sa s mn c* as as sag so sp Brere?

Enterng one, the ralroad runs between two rows of drty back yards flled wth tn cans and rubbsh. Enterng the other, t passes houses neatly panted, back yards wth flowers n them, and streets swept clean. These two towns had the same populaton fve years ago. But recently two new factores have moved to one of them; real estate values have anced; new houses are beng bult; everybody s prosperous and happy. And the resdents of the other town cannot understand ther bad luck. A real Clean Up and Pant Up campagn would have taken the "bad luck town out of ts rut.

3 FRDAY, APRL 27, 97. THE COAST ADVERTSER, BELMAR, N. J. PAGE THREE Natonal Bcycle Week Aprl 28 to May 5 A NATON-WDE MOVE TO BOOM THE BCYCLE More Bkes Sold Last Year Than n Any Other One Year n Hstory of the Busness. Aprl 28th to May 5th has been set apart all over the country by bcycle manufacturers, obbers, dealers and rdng clubs as Bcycle Week, and local dealers are plannng to make t a bg week, wth specal celebratons to emphasze the oys and antages of bcycle rdng. The statement that close to a m llon bcycles were sold last year may be a surprse to some people. Yet t s true, and leadng manufacturers report that the demand was not satsfed by the supply. A shortage of metal tubng, due to war condtons, prevented even greater sales. Careful nvestgaton shows that even n the boom days of 897 and 898, when the country was bcycle crazy, not one mllon bcycles were sold n a year. When we hear that the confdent talk of the bcycle trade s A mllon or more bcycles for 97, we can beleve that the bcycle has come back. Many reasons are assgned for renewed nterest n cyclng ndcated by the gross sales of manufacturers. ncrease of populaton, of course, accounts for a good deal of the ncreased busness. Bcycles cost less, and are made better than ever. The servces they perform n busness, economcally and well, are more numerous that ever. Butchers, grocers, druggsts and even department stores fnd n them a cheap, effcent means of makng quck lght delveres. There are attachments for carryng every varety of luggage. n the South n many ctes t s not an uncommon sght to see a woman rdng a bcycle wth a neat, lttle wre basket on front, carryng a sleepng baby. Factory employees and offce clerks fnd the bcycle ust the thng to go to and from work on. t gves ust enough exercse to wake a man up before begnnng hs daly tasks. At nght t brngs hm swftly to hs dnner. To many a man the bcycle gves a hot lunch at home at noon nstead of cold sandwches or restaurant fare. t s not only along lnes of utlty, economy and convenence that the bcycle has come to ts own agan, accordng to enthusasts. As a pleasure vehcle t has merts all of ts own that wll never be supplanted, and ts popularty s found n all classes of people. At Palm Beach, Florda, Ashevlle, N. C., and other wnter resorts, the use of the bcycle by fashonable socety s unversal. Many who have come to love the graceful, slender, swft two-wheeled hound at wnter resorts and waterng places refuse to gve up the exhlaratng pleasure of horses s acqured. Pars was saved, they say, by taxcabs. Who knows but what the humble two-wheeled steel horse may not do as much for us some day? NEW PROFESSON FOR WOMEN when returnng home.

They pont out that all leadng countres at war n Europe have ther cyclng corps and cyclng regments. The French and the Germans have long realzed the merts of the bcycle and have specally desgned bkes that can be taken down nto two sectons and strapped on the back for crossng streams, swamps and broken ground. Several regments of Canadan bcyclsts have gone to the front. n many ways the bcycle s superor to the horse n warfare. t s less expensve. t requres lttle or no care. t s swft and slent. t s small and hard to ht.

For concentratng troops at a scene of trouble n case of nternal dsturbances t wll be especally useful. Amercan boys nowadays are born almost wth a knowledge of how to rde a bcycle. How few you see learnng to rde as n days gone by. That fact wll make t easy to organze Bcycle cavalry, whle t takes years before a good knowledge They Are Makng Marked Success as Secretares and Earn Very Good Salares. Evdence of rapd strdes toward the creaton of a new professon offerng a good feld for women s set forth n an artcle n the New York Evenng Post by Raymond G. Fuller, drector of the secretaral department of the Russell! Sage College of Practcal Arts at Troy,' N. Y. He ponts out that government statstcs and the reports of such organzatons as the nternatonal bureau of occupatons, New York; the Women s Educatonal and ndustral unon of Boston, and the bureau of occupatons for traned women of Phladelpha show that secretaral work s becomng one of the most attractve avenues of vocatonal choce among college women. He states that Smmons college n Boston s the only nsttuton of collegate standng whch offers a complete secretaral course, and that the demand for ts graduates s so great that other colleges are rapdly fallng n lne. n New York salares begn at from $2 to $5 a week, ncrease to from $900 to $,000 a year at the end of two years, and to from $,500 to $,800 a year wthn another year or two, or as soon as the secretary has defntely lfted herself from the stenographer class and shown real nterest n the affars of her employer, ablty to grasp detals and attend to them wthout delay and has developed a certan degree of udgment. Twenty per cent of the graduates of the secretaral department of Smmons go nto busness occupatons, 0 to 5 per cent become teachers, and the rest fnd employment wth lawyers, professors, doctors and other ndvduals, and clubs, settlement houses, colleges, etc. A recent survey of 800 college women n secretaral postons showed 30 per cent connected wth suffrage, socal and relgous organzatons; 4 per cent employed by schools and colleges; 8 per cent by publc offcals; 7 per cent by busness frms and banks; 7 per cent by lawyers, and 6 per cent by doctors. Neckte as Lfe Saver. A neckte saved a Glasgow captan s lfe recently. He had been a passenger on board a Greek shp whch had been torpedoed n the Medterranean. He managed to keep afloat for a whle, untl a spar drfted along wth a Frenchman on t. To ths he clung, unable to scramble on because he had lost the use of hs rght arm and leg. Then, says the Glasgow man, a storm came up and we were lashed and buffeted about tll could hang on no longer. So long, old chap, sad. guess m a goner. Good luck to you and thanks. Nonsense, he sad. Hang on for a second, and ll fx you. Before knew what he was about he had whpped off hs neckte and had securely bound my arm to the spar. Then we passed the nght n terror. thought my arm would be torn out. But n the frst lght of dawn an talan destroyer came along and pcked up everyone who had been on the shp. Yes, contnued the Scotchman, f you are gong to sea n these parlous tmes be sure you have a. good, long, strong neckte wth you and don t lay t asde for an nstant. Taxdermsts Are Sculptors, Too. t s very doubtful f many of the 300,000 or more people who vst the anmal exhbts of the Natonal museum annually realze the great ; anythng else. They are sad to have been the poneers n ths knd of work, and at ths tme complete ther work by constructng lfe-szed hollow plaster fgures whch are not only lght and durable, but also far more realstc than those produced wth sawdust and excelsor.

She Always Worked, but Untl Recently the Money All Went nto Father s Pocket as Hs Legal Rght t was ust a lttle pece of newspaper poetry publshed on the edtoral page. Doubtless many thousands read t, for t was well phrased. Probably most of the men who read t were pleased, for t was an appeal to men s chvalry and protecton, a confesson of femnne weakness and self-nsuffcency. The burden of the poem was a fant wal that women were forced to leave the home where t was alleged they all wanted to stay, and to become wage earners. Men were appealed to to treat the unhappy creatures kndly and make up to them by polteness what they had lost when they ceased to be domestc workers. t s a lttle hard on those brave poneer women who made t possble for the grl of today to get a ob, who forced open the colleges that women mght educate themselves for busness and the professons, to be thanked n terms lke these. Surely they never expected that when the tme came when women would have ther choce, at good pay, of the work they should do, that they would sgh over the necessty of workng. The trouble wth the busness grl who thnks she would be better off at home embroderng doles, s that she does not know that work has always been the porton of women. Long before there was a factory or a typewrter or a power-drven machne women worked for wages. They had to. The workngman never supported hs famly. He was never able to support ; them. The dfference between then and now s that n the old days women dd not collect ther own wages. The money went nto father s pocket. He had a legal rght to the servces of hs wfe and chldren, and thought he had also a moral rght to whatever they earned. There has never been a tme n hs- ' tory when women were as happly stuated as now. And the change has been wrought chefly by the fact that women are ncreasngly becomng ndependent wage earners. They are n a poston now to marry whom they please, whether the man has money or not. They can grow and develop to ; the very lmt of ther capacty. They are as free as women have never before been free. The woman who fnds the busness world uncongenal s free to go nto domestc servce, unless she s too much of a snob. But the chances of ; lvng a parastc lfe of sentmental ; dleness are as slm now as n the ' earlest Vctoran tmes. Brthday of Byron. Recently occurred the one hundred and twenty-nnth annversary of the ;brth of Lord Byron. The poet s famly, on the paternal sde, traced ts orgn back to the tme of Wllam the Conqueror, and on hs mother s sde he was related to the royal famly of Scotland. Hs father, Capt. John Byron of the Guards, was so notorous! for hs gallantres and recklessness that he receved the nckname of Mad Jack. After squanderng the n- ; hertance of hs wfe, Mad Jack de- serted her, and ded a few years after the brth of George Gordon Noel, who early became Lord Byron through the n Bobby Was Fxed for the Job. Jmmy had seen a steeple clmber n acton, and upon reachng home he mmedately tred to mtate the feats he had seen. Pckng out a large tree, he began to clmb up ts rough trunk, but ere he had gone hs heght hs small hands loosened ther hold upon the scaly bark and he came to earth amd a shower of brllant stars. Manfully controllng hs ready tears, he walked thoughtfully toward the house, conscous of a rapdly growng bump mmedately under hs cap. As he entered and passed the pantry door he sped hs smaller brother busly engaged n transferrng the contents of a am ar nto hs tny stomach.

He bought a bcycle and had fgured t all out that wth hs bcycle he was not only gong to have a fne rde wthout fatgue or fuss, take the exercse he needed and so buld up hs health, but he was actually gong to save between one hundred and one hundred and twenty-fve dollars n the next three years over what he would 00 Bcycles from whch to make a choce, ncludng the Snyder, the New York Sportng Goods Co, the famous Perce and Pope make Bcycles, the latter be- ne the largest manufacturer of Bcycles n Amerca. have to pay for the dscomforts and the uncertantes of the trolley.

The Board of Health has desgnated May to May 5 as the days for the campagn aganst drt aad flth and the borough wll provde plenty of teams to cart away all rubbsh, such as ashes, tn cans, etc., wthout expense to the ndvdual. All that s requred of people s that they place the rubbsh n receptacles! at the curb lne or n some convenent spot where a team can be drven to t and the men handle t readly. Ths s a work n whch all householders should co-operate. Sprng s here agan. Nature s dong her best to put on garments of beauty and cleanlness and to come forth n all her vrgn purty and prde. f anmate nature prdes herself n beng clean, let us exercse our cvc prde and not only for appearance sake make our premses clean and attractve but for the health of ourselves, our famles and our neghbors. Clean out every corner of your prde n Belmar whch s commendable and the people are pretty w e ll alve to the modern doctrne of cleanlness. t s seldom that the Board of Health s compelled to exercse ts power, whch s almost unlmted, ' n makng people comply wth the laws of santaton. THE BACK YARD GARDEN The back yard garden ths summer wll be no oke. W th potatoes, onons, cabbage and nearly all vegetables sellng at a prce lve tmes above the normal fgures, most people who have money enough to buy a hoe and energy enough to weld t have come to the concluson that t s tme to get busy n the back yard. Belmar people who never before entertaned an dea of havng a garden have ether started one or are about to do so, provdng they have a vacant lot or plot of ground they can devote to garden crops. Several boroughs have adopted the muncpal farmng dea, havng leased plots of ground several acres n some nstances wth the dea of plantng the tracts to potatoes and sellng the tubers next fall to permanent resdents of the boroughs at cost of producton. t s a lne dea and one werthy of every town adoptng where land s avalable. Ths s perhaps one of the lessons whch the European war has taught the Amercan people whch we mght well contnue. There has been too lttle co-operaton n the past between muncpaltes and ts people. t s well for Amerca to adopt a few of the socalstc deas of some of the Contnental countres and ths muncpal farmng dea s along that lne, farmng deas along that lne. Every vacant lot or plot of ground n the borough should be devoted to garden crops. The Department of Agrculture and the press n general have endeavored to arouse the publc to the dangers of the future n regard to the prospectve food shortage. The growng of common garden crops on vacant land s an every day topc for many edtors and t s, ndeed, a tmely one. The European war has created an unprecedented demand for food supples. Even to-day there s a shortage of certan food supples. The food reserves of the world have been largely exhausted and the wheat crop s far below normal. At ths moment no other factor n the natonal stuaton s of greater mportance than ntellgent precautonary preparatons to secure the largest possble acreage of land under cultvaton. All those havng land should cultvate t to ts full extent large or small. Nature wll answer the call, but we must plant.

When a grl at the glove counter marred the boy n the wholesale house the news of ther weddng s good for a forty-lne notce, and the forty lnes n the country paper gve them self respect. When n the course we knew that ther baby s a twelve pounder, named Grover or Theodore or Woodrow, we have that neghborly feelng that breeds the real democracy.

A man who was pursued by women says n hts confesson n the Woman s Home Companon: Fathers, mothers, grls, all regarded me wth an apprasng questonng expresson that had not been there before. Fathers sat down besde me on the suburban tran as commuted back and forth and managed adrotly to fnd out where was workng and how lked t and how much was pad and what my prospects were. The grls to whom had been engaged at varous tmes assumed a new atttude, as much as to say, You have had a good tme wth us. Now pay. Take up the whte s man s burden. Support one of us. They ddn t say t openly, of course, but the nuncton was n ther eyes. We moved and breathed and had our beng n an atmosphere hghly charged. All the world se-emed to be sayng to me, How old are you? Twenty-four? How much are you makng? Thrty dollars? Why are you shrkng? Why aren t you a good ctzen? t was the knd of slent, ceaseless socal pressure that has been exerted on slackers n England ths last year. They were not compelled to enlst, yet t took more courage to stay at home than to go. We were not compelled to be marred. But after we had played around three or four years socety began openly to hold t np aganst us. They managed some way to make ns feel contnually apologetc, contnually on the defensve.

Ths operaton consumed a great deal of tme, as t was generally done on the scene of the work under erse condtons, but recently there has been ntroduced a machne whch solders these sheets together and delvers them n a roll of any desred length, so that the workman s saved much tme n assemblng the sheets on the roof. The sheets, wth edges locked, are hooked together and fed nto the machne, one seam beng cold pressed whle the one before t s hot pressed. The machne s worked by one man. The capacty of the machne s four seams per mnute, or 20 boxes of tn plate per day. The economy and speed of ths arrangement for the workman wll be evdent to anyone. The Human ButtonhooK.

W ll Sometmes Work, Though Pleasure s the Real Busness of Exstence Not Bothered About Rent or Taxes. f a man were prvleged to choose hs own manner of lvng, sortng over the whole collecton of lfe s varous forms of exstence, and choosng the one he lked best, no matter what anybody or everybody sad, t s lkely that n all that strange collecton he could fnd nothng more charmng than the lfe of the shanty boatman, remarks the ndanapols News. The shanty boatman lves anywhere, accordng to hs nclnaton and the season. He lves, anyway, accordng to hs desres. t sets you dreamng of all the faraway places to thnk of hm. He moors hs lttle house on the cool northern streams n the summer, and drfts down the warm blue southern rvers durng the wnter. He s not averse to a bt of work now and then, enough to keep hm n coffee and bacon, but be can choose hs work as he goes, and leave t when he grows tred of t. Work s hs avocaton, and, as an avocaton,.work s not an unpleasant thng. Hs real busness s lvng, smokng, fshng, drftng. He pays nether rent nor taxes. He owns only a bt of an old shack, somehow made watertght and balanced so that t wll float. t s even possble, you must understand, for hm to enter nto the lfe of cty men, enterng nto t, however, wth no sense of necessty or restrant. A shanty boatman was not so long ago a resdent of ths very town. Wth a proper sense of the ftness of thngs he ted hs boat to a fence, n lne Wth the houses on the shore and even panted a number over the front door. t was a olly lookng lttle home, wth the smoke comng out of the ppe n the roof and lamplght shnng from the edge of the curtans, and, for all we know, he may have a regular ob and have taken to cty lfe very contentedly for a whle. The antage he had over the rest of us, of course, was that to get away to the faraway places, he had only to unte hs boat and drft, acceptng now and then a bt of a lft from a frendly craft. The thng that s lkely to bother us, however, n choosng ths sort of exstence, s the queston as, to whether we should really be a shanty boatman, or ust pretend to be one. Stevenson was a sort of shanty boatman. At least, he dd drft about through the country n a boat, and lved very contentedly and lazly on the way. But Stevenson has wrtten a book about hs wanderngs, and he was not really a shanty boatman at all. t s ust the dfference you may say, between art and vagrancy. Vagrancy has an dle sound, and art s a temptng thng. The very pont n beng a shanty boatman, however, s n not havng to try to be anythng else, and, perhaps the best thng about t s the fact that t s so far removed from art as to be very nearly real.

So your Uncle Hram Peabody was here whle your husband was travelng, and hs wfe was nursng her grandchldren, sad Mrs. Green, settlng herself for a chat. expect he enoyed hs vst? Most of the- tme, answered Mrs. Bddle. He was as pleased as a boy to get here, and for a whle he talked as f he d lke to lve n town, where there were so many clever nventons to look at. He s qute an nventor hmself, you know, and has all sorts of automatc arrangements n hs house and barn. Even here he rgged a track down cellar to run the coal and ashes back and forth, and fxed the clotheslnes a new way the frst week, and was knd of vexed because ddn t care for a trapdoor n the ktchen and a dumb-water to the cellar. Then he went nto a brown study over somethng, and took to stayng down cellar most of the tme. One day mssed an old alarm clock from Henry s den, the meat grnder, a sprng from the laundry door, the can opener and the hnges from the salt box. Just then Uncle Hram ran up the cellar stars, all mussed and sooty, but smlng, and nssted that must go rght down and see hs nventon for openng the furnace drafts n the mornng. t was clever, too, wth wres and pulleys overhead, and a pece of broom handle ftted on the clock wnder, so that when the alarm went off t dropped a weght my meat grnder, mnd you! and somehow opened tht> drafts, so that the house would be warm when we got up. Uncle was tckled to death wth t, and of course admtted t; but warned hm not to set hs alarm too early, for our furnace has a tremendous draft. t worked frst rate for a few days; but the old clock got to actng up; sometmes t wouldn t go off, and then agan a lttle ar would start the alarm whle uncle was settng t, so he had to come upstars on tptoe. The nght before Henry came there was a cold snap and a hgh wnd, and we went to bed early, for he was to arrve about sx n the mornng. About two woke up wth a start. t was so hot could hardly breathe, and there was a strong scorched smell. Then heard a racket lke pots and pans fallng downstars. Burglars, or fre, or both? says to myself, all bewldered; and made for the upstars telephone and called up the emergency number before was awake enough to know whether wanted the polce or the fre department. t seems they understood wanted both. Uncle Hram s room was empty, and began to thnk that maybe d been hasty about telephonng. got Henry s old revolver and went down cautously. The ktchen gas was burnng, and the cellar door was open, and the cookng thngs that hang n the cel larway were strewn all the way down the stars. Someone was down cellar, bangng around and sayng thngs, and thought uncle mght be strugglng wth a burglar. So called, Surrender or ll shoot! But Uncle Hram called back: Don t shoot, Mara, t s only me! Get me a pal of water, quck! You see, hs alarm had gone off too soon; and as uncle had the warmest room n the house, he had waked u: and rushed down to see about t. Before could get the water, two polcemen and the fre engnes came and a good bg crowd, too. The house wasn t on fre, but so near t there was no fur n t; and the fremen sad thngs that hurt uncle s feelngs, and so dd Henr when he came. Poor Uncle Hram wasn t the same after that. He hardly notced the machnery blueprnts Henry brought home, whch showed he was low n hs mnd, and le ddn t even read the scentfc ournals. Me lost hs appette and began to crtcze the food.

We talk of the unmpeachable honesty of somebody or other, knowng perfectly well that anybody s honesty may be mpeached.

Prmarly a dsease of ro dents, caused by a short dumb-bell shaped mcroscopc vegetable, the pest bacllus, t occurs n man n three forms, the pneumonc, whch has a death rate of almost 00 per cent; the septcaemc, whch s nearly as fatal, and the bubonc, n whch even wth the most modern methods of treatment the mortalty s about 50 per cent. t s a dsease of commerce, spreadng around the globe n the body of the shp-borne rat. t s estmated that every case of human plague costs the muncpalty n whch t occurs at least 97,500. Ths does not take nto account the enormous loss due to dsastrous quarantnes and the commercal paralyss whch the fear of the dsease so frequently produces. The dsease s now treated wth a serum dscovered through the genus of Yersn. Ths s used n much the same way as s dphthera ant-toxn. Plague s transferred from the sck rodent to the well man by fleas. The sck rat has enormous numbers of plague bacll n ts blood. The blood s taken by the flea, whch, leavng the sck rat, seeks refuge and sustenance on the body of a human beng, to whom t transfers the nfecton. Snce plague s a dsease of rodents and snce t s carred from sck rodents to well men by rodent fleas, safety from the dsease les n the excluson of rodents, not only excluson from the habtaton of man but also from the ports and ctes of the world. Those who dwell n rat-proof surroundngs take no plague. Not only should man dwell n rat-proof surroundngs, but he should also lve n rat-free surroundngs. The day s past when the rodent served a useful purpose as the unpad cty scavenger. Hats wll not come where there s no food for them. Muncpal cleanlness may be regarded as a partal nsurance aganst plague. The prayer that no plague come ngh our dwellng s beat answered, however, by rat-proofng the habtatons of man. Modern santary scence has evolved a smple and efl- cent weapon aganst the pestlence whch walketh n darkness and strlketh at noonday, and the Unted States publc health servce has put ths knowledge nto practcal operaton and thus speedly eradcated plague, wherever t has appeared n the Unt ed States. Fate nevtable. Harry Shunk, an Oho product, who has long been promnent n mnstrel and vaudevlle crcles, s fond of em-, ployng hs lesure moments n huntng out characters and ganng odd sde- lghts on human nature. At a carnval n a sou.thern town two colored boys stood near the edge of a crowd that had assembled to watch a hgh dver. As the darng athlete slowly mounted a tall pole to a tny platform 60 feet n the ar, a brass band on the ground played chlls-and-fever musc. When the dver left hs perch, plunged head downward nto a small tank on the ground, and scooped out onto the ground lke a flash, tfte musc broke nto a lvely stran.

The Chnese have a custom of celebratng the ent of New Year s, ether by payng off old debts, or, f they are credtors and the deb tor s unable to pay, then by cancellng the debt. Thus the new year begns wth a clean slate. Communtes are all alke n many respects and the problem of our cty s the problem of a thousand others. We have too many unpad accounts on our books. Why not proft by the Chnese dea and have a pay-up week the country over, when the slate shall be wped clean and the new year started free of debt? Argonaut. New Method for Removng Rust.

Mr. Peaslee looked up from the rake that he was mendng. What s the matter of ye now, Obed? he desred to know. My wfe and daughter, repled Mr. Gunney, have est gn me a knd of gon over, guess you mght call t and me as nnocent as a baby. t sort of took my breath away, and ve skun out a spell, to gve em a chance to get over t. What you been up to now? demanded Mr. Peaslee. an t been up to a sngle thng, asserted the culprt stoutly. At any rate, an t done nothn further n to make a mstake that any man mght have made. dessay you would have done est the same as dd. Mebbe, admtted Caleb. What you been don? Well, hestated Obed, ll tell you how twas. My wfe an S lome have been away vstn for bout three weeks, and they left me to do as was a mnd to n most ways; but when any lttle thng d come up that was onsartan bout, d wrte to em, or one of em. There wa n t much bout whether d set another hen, or how much Ms Grggs owed us for butter, or some such thng as that. Bmeby, though, wantgd some ce bout what to use to make a scarecrow. d got my corn n, and them pesky crows was clawn t out of the ground faster u could put t n. ddn t know where to fnd the thngs to make a scarecrow o f; so wrote to em and wanted they should tell me where could fnd somethn. Mebbe you remember, sad Obed wth a questonng glance, that woman and her daughter that boarded at our house last summer? Mr. Peaslee sgnfed that he remembered them well. Well, Obed went on, when they went away they left a raft of stuff that they ddn t want n the way of clothes, mean. Some of the thngs were clothes that they d worn fshn and trampn round n the woods, and they was c nsd able tore to peces. There they was, hangn up n a clothes-press, and S lome wrote to me to go and get somethn to dress the scarecrow. She ddn t tell me what to take, he added defensvely, so how n tunket they blame me s more n can fgger out. Well, went up there, and pawed over the mess of stuff and pcked out some, thngs and took em out to the feld and dressed the crtter up n em. There was a fancy rg for a hat, and a long, acbetlke thng that they called a blazer, and a skrt wth red and whte strpes n t, and the strpes was an nch and a Lalf wde. don t beleve, Mr. Gunnsy declared, n the prde of creaton, that when got through you could hgve found a tasterdressed scarecrow anywheres. took a lot of yrde n t, Obed admtted, and guess t s ust as well took t before them womenfolks got home.
