A writer in the July number of the West
Minister Review speaks of one feature of
American cities which give them a hospit-
able and contiding look--a feature that is
quite novel to European visitors. 1t is the
absense of wall and fences to the city lots.
The cities are not filed" says this writer,
with high walls which jealousy shut out
fine mansions and gardens from the passer-by.
There is no apprehension of the burglar, or
of the neighbour, apparent in the million
aires boundaries. Once, small fences or
hedges were the fashion, but now, in many
cities, the private grounds are open TO the
street. In these cities in the warm evenings.
society moves on to the front porch, and from
eight to ten o'clock gentleman may call on
dozen ladies' without being invited into
single house. Even the counting is conduct
ed with such decorum as the situation re-
quires, on the front doorsteps, This custom
prevails in numerous Western and South
ern towns, and generally in all American cities
there is far greater intercourse than in Europ-
the front yard fence" is one to be COM
meaded as adding both to the public and pri-
vate enjoyment of beautiful town, like
our own, in the delightful season of ''outing'
when the verandah and lawn become the
parlor. BY the removal of many of the fences
to private lots in the vicinity of Monument
Park in this city, the beauty of the private
ground has been heightened, giving an idea
of greater EXTENT and the chorus of the
streets has also been increased because they
reflect portion of the beauty of well kept
private places. If our citizens generally
would remove their front yard fences, and
keep their grounds and sidewalks adjoining
In neat manner, we think it would add
greatly to the fine appearance of our beauti-
full streets, adorned as they are by fine houses
and splendid trees.

A Warming,

The modes of deaths approach are various,
and statistics show conclusively that more
persons die from diseases of the Throat and
Lungs than any other. II is probable that
everyone, without exception, receives vast
numbers of Tubercle Germs into the system
and where these germs fall upon suitable soil
they start into life and develop, at first slowly
and are shownby slight tickling sensation in
the throat and if allowed to continue their
ravages they extend to the lungs producing
Consumption and to the head, causing Ca
tarrh. Now AL this is dangerous and if al
lowed to proceed will in time cause death.
At the onset you must act with promptness !;
al blowing cold to go without attention is
dangerous and may lose you your life. As
soon as you feel that something is wrong with
your Throat, Lungs or Nostrls, obtain a
bottle of Boschee's German Syrnp. 1t will
give you immediate relief.
