Making Towns Attractive.

Mr.. Henry B. Bowen delivered brief, practi-
cal and suggestive address at the Woodstock
Fair, in Connecticut. the other day, closing as
follows
The time is coming, and is not far distant,
when the people in all these New England towns
and villages will organize and go Systematically
and joyfully to work in making public improve
ments. Those places which move the soonest
will reap the earliest and greatest renown, for
they will gain in population the refined. the most
enterprisIng aud wealthy, and make permanently
secure their prosperity eal estate will iucreasen
value taxes will decrease because of the increased
value Of property and Of population. and every
body will be made happier aud better by the
change. 1t is time to think of the Improvement
Of your public streets and highways. 1t is time
to think OF sidewalks aud shade trees along
all Yonr highways, Of public parks and fountains,
of bathing-houses and lighthouses, OF flowers aud
shrubbery-of grading and dwelling. of doing
everything in yOurpoWer TO make all these beauli-
full bills and valleys bud and blossom as the rose.
and be more and more your pride and joy. In
this good work you must be united, harmonious,
and perseveriDg. and the blessed yearly invest
ment of time and money you will make will pay
you dividend every day the year round and
all your life long. and thousands shall share in
your inyestmestment when you are dead aud for
gotten. Let every, woman, and child do some
thing in this matter, and do it promptly. You
can at least plant an elm or q rose bush every
year. and you will not have lived entirely in vain
A single word more under this head. hope
the time will speedily come when 1t shall be called
punishable offence for any man to make the
public highway depository for all his old broken
carts and stone heaps and old rubbish from his
garrett and barn. from cellar aud dooryard. Such
action is harmful, demorallzing, aud 4 public
nuisance, and it should be rigidIy prevented and
forbidden. You have the power thus to do, I
hope you will have the disposition to enforce it.
It is for thepublic good that this should be done
and that Is reason enough. And hereafter, if
own door-yard, where he can see it. ponder over
it. and smell it every day, all by himself. Those
towns and villages will most prosper which fast
est multiply their local attractions. You willalI,
of course, vote for schools. churches and work
shops, and this is right. but you must march be-
yond these points as fast as you Can with pro-
per regard to other duties. Look out for public
institutions and endow them. Look ont for your
streets and highways and improve them. Make
your town aud hume more and more beautiful
every year. Your hearts will be nude better,
and your souls viii be richer for so doing. Pardon
this friendly criticism. and accept my best wishes
for your continual prosperity

THE GREAT MISTAKE

Which most people make about travelling is that
they travel without any object except that of do
ing as other people do. They think that they
must follow certain routes. adhere to a certain
routine and see certain things. even they do not
interest them in the least. Those who never
care to look at pictures at home. spend days in
YEARLY dragging themselves through intermiba-
bic picture galleries. They may be seen bored to
death, standing before The masterpieces of TJnto-
ret and Yeronese. Those who do not know
whether their own parish church is Norman or
Tudor, and moreover do not care a straw, spend
weeks in running from one cathedral town TO an.
other, vainly trying to remember which had cam
paniIe and which baptistery, so that they may
have some new dinner talk when they return from
abroad. Those who can barely distinguishes man
uscript from printed book will take the greatest
trouble to obtain intrOduclions to all the princi
pal librarians 10 Europe. who will be expected to
waste valuable time in showing them treasures
which they can neither appreciate nor understand
All this is very foolish and useless waste of
time and money. Almost every one has some
tastei duu IL Capdoie vi euyo1lOg something which
travelling can procure for him. If a man is fond
Of his garden at home but does not know Titan

pictures when he goes abroad. instead of trying
to see some 6ne gardens, and to find out what
new plants he could acelimanzs7a He will al

useful taste; and when be travels let him stop

as follows sz-t4 c
Thousands of people think it necessary to travel
but few are alberto enjoy travelling as they might.
They take an Autumn tour on the Continent,
spend Winter on the Nile, or even go round
the world with Mr.. Cook. The recolections
many of them bring back are only of the little
discomforls from which they were too late, bnt
nothing of the curious old town they explored
while waiting from another. They can give a
full account of the number Of courses served at
the Louvre hotel dinner, but would not know a
photograph Of Notre Dame from one of the Made
line, unless the names we're printed beneath.
They can discourse feelingly about the journey
they took when the luncheon was left behind.
They have forgotten all about the picturesque
country through which they passed. The highest
mountains and deepest ravines could not attract
their attention or stop them from grumbling at
the temporary discomfort Of missing one meal.
There are great many things required to make
a perfect traveller. By

A PERFECT TRAVELLER,

temper and perfect digestion, a love of scenery,
and sympathy With his fellow creatures. Hemust

he must have q liberal education and a strong
foresight. He ought to be able to fast when nee
essary, and to feast when be gets the opportu
nifty to enjoy comfortable bed. or, if needful
to sleep en- the floor. He musa be able to re-
member to pack up his toothbrush and soap. and
not to lose sight of his umbrella He must have
o watch that keeps time, and pocket in which
his tickets are always TO be found. He should
know how to make himself comfortable. or to put
up cheerfully with dscomforts which cannot be
avoided. To such a traveller everything seems to
give pleasure. What he has seen before he is
glad TO see ugan, and to verify bis recollection.
What is new be finds full OF fresh interest. Each

THE USUAL WELL KNOWN TYPES,

But they will always exhibit q certain variety
which may prevent them from becoming altogether
monotonous. There will be the beautiful and
elegantly dressed American girl, with her obedi-
ent and assiduously attentive mother as lady-i
waiting. She may talk about being pretty
crowded when you offer her another peach, but
she will have plenty of shrewd things to say well
worth listening to. There will be the shoddy
American family talking through their noses but
if you take a quiet smoke with the cute Yankee
who has struck OIL" the views he expresses up
on things social and political will be worth re-
memberng and be food for thought. There will
be the typical American child, who asks for
everything, bat will eat only what is unwhoIe-
some and sure to make him sick, who drinks
champagne and cafe aoir. and talks the whole
time OF dinner in a shrill penetrating treble, but
probably 10 excellent French. de spills the salt

old Scotchwoman, who watches the urchin's be-
havior with unconcealed smazement; and by up
setting the rim ordinaire, spoils the only decent
dress she has brought with her. A meek coun-
try clergyman sent abroad for his throat clothed
in fine black cloth, and with the largest and
whitest Of ties, may be seen sitting beside
Queens chaplain in a welI.worn shooting suit and
scarlet neckerchef There will be Jews with
many gold rings and much assurance not Of o re-
lgious kind. and undergraduates taking their first
tour. There will be the German officer with his
black and white button, who tears his meat with
his fingers; and the Frencbman with his crimson
rosette, who takes tOOthpick from the bundle.
and when be has used it, calmly replaces it for the
next conner. There will be Russians conversing
in all European languages with equal facility. and
EogllshwOmen talking the horrible jLrgon which
they believe to be French. One and all will con-
tribute something to entertain the man who Is
ready to be amused.
