tried to reason with her, and asked her if
things couldn't be smoothed over, She re-

on one Of his tantrums, but that sometimes
She could manage him. The neighbor, evinc

about quart or two of sweet oil for the

HOLD THE NOZZLE.

There is considerable, to a greater or less
degree, at times and other times, growing
about the Water Company and its way Of
doing things. \ water company is supposed
to ''sabo the water business and know how
to preserve reserve for q future need, and
to this end it publishes elscwhcrein this wal
liable journal some rules directory and ad-
vice suggestive. 1t wishes each individual
squirter to 90 hisown squirting, and not leave
it to tree or a fence. Supervision is the
soul Of sprinkling, and irrigation is to be per
formed by holding the pipe i'll the hand. The
sidewalks and streets are not to receive Il
Sratuitous supply. In word. the company
wishes the consumer to be reasonable and eX-
crcise great care in the use Of water or there
will be none on hand i'll the hot midsunmer
when it is most needed.
