CIT '"otIS anu hSCeiS iOI dIl OC-
cupation that may hll in idle
hours are fairly well met in a
large city by the variety of en-
tertainments provided by bust
ness men and philanthropisls
the one for gain, the other
for the good he may do hu-
manity. But it is far different
in the smaller towns and vii
lagos, where it does not pay
to cater TO such needs and
where there is seldom wealth
enough to furnish from its
abundance free entertainment
or educational advantages.
For all such places. however.
there is opportunity to do Il
good work by CO operative en-
terprise at very little cost. a
literary society meeting in the
school house or church fur
nishes occupation for the
thoughts Of members not
merely during the few hours
devoted 10 the meetings, but
for many hours in preparation
therefor. 1t may also furnish
the foundation for a small cir
culating library of books or
papers that will provide read
ing matter. giving useful oc-
equations for other spare
hours. From such beginnings
in the course of time may be
developed lecture bureau
bringing to town or village
occasional speakers from
abroad. All such enterprises.
undertaken in the right spirit.
have undoubtcd educational
and moral value. In the smaller
cooperative bodies work ON
the part of the members takes
the place of money capital. y
lazy village may be transform
ed by such an institution ; the
young men, instead of idling
away their hours of rest in
useless or mischicvous gossip
at the country store or the
whccl-wri.ht's. may have their
ambitions aroused. be en-
codraged to read and study,
and thus be given occupation
that will keep them out of mis-
chief and promote their men
tai and moral welfare. Many
of the great men of the country
received their earliest impulses
to study in societies of this
kind. The educational value
of the exercises may have
been limited. but the readings.
the debates and other literary
cndcavors stimulated 4 desire
to learn and established habits
of study and industry bearing
good fruit in later years. What
form the efforts to provide oc-
cupation for idle hours should
take depends very much upon
the community to be reached.
1t should be adapted to their
wants as well as to their needs.
Aiming at to much good may
defeat the purpose if the occu-
patton provided should be in
the nature of drudgery. For
men who work hard during
the day, relaxation and amusc-
mcnt are needed. These may
be found in reading, in litera-
ry exercises adapted to their
understanding, and games OF
various kinds. But as the
main purpose is to occupy
their idle hours with exercises
not injurious, efforts toward
their Improvement should be
limited to such things as will
surely enlist their interest and
engage their attention, trust
ing to time and the influence
of good habits for their future
development of higher tastes
and demands. BdIN. SIN.

Painful B0ils.

I About three years age was troubled
with poison in my blood, very irritating
and painful boils breaking out all over
my body. For two years suffered with
them, trying all sorts of remedies, and
doctors prescriptions without avail.
Becoming disgusted with doctors and
medicines had used up to this time, I
concluded to try s. s. g., and the result
was far beyond my expectations. A few
bottles left me in better health than
had been since childhood. I consider
s. s. 8. the only medicine that will
thoroughly purify poisoned blood.

Chamber OF Commerce.

The Chamber of Commerce was called
to meet yesterday afternoon. At the
meeting one week ago, when the election
of officers was in progress, a motion was
carried to give the revision of the consti-
tuition into the hands of committee
appointed for that purpose, and to hear
it's report at special meeting, which
was to take place yesterday aft ernoon.
When the time came for the meeting the
committee was not ready to report. One
or two members appeared and did little
work at the revision, but as there was no
quorum of members of the Chamber
present, no action could be taken. The
attendance at the meetings Of the Cham
Der has been steadily on the wane for
some time, but yesterday is the first oc-
casion on which the effort to transact
business had to be given up because
twenty members could not be brought
together. 1t was decided to call special
meeting Friday afternoon, when an extra
effort will be made to get the members

Duty.
More than the usual interest attached
to the meeting Of the Police Commission
yesterday afternoon, owing to the fact
that ten additional policemen we're to he
appointed. AS soon as it was learned
that the Council had agreed to allow an
increase of the force, the applications be-
gan to pour in, and when the Board got
down to action yesterday some sixty or
seventy were on file. The applicants
themselves were out in force, blockading
the halls leading to the Mayors
office, and lingering about the
police station awaiting the an
nouncement of the names selected. They
we're kept in long suspense, for the
Board remained in session two hours
and q quarter and the matter of appoint
ments was deferred until all the other
business had been finished.
Mr.. Burbank appeared and stated that
he expected to begin work on his build
ing on Main street and asked permission
to allow the brick to remain in front Of
the building. It was stated that the
matter was not in the hands of the Police
Commissioners.

named saloon, which had been repre-
sented to the Board at former meeting
as disreputable place, was reported by
Chief Cooney as now being all right.
In view of the trouble that has arisen
from granting Schaffer & Salter permis-
sion to move their saloon from First
street to the corner of Spring and Fourth,
IL was decided hereafter not to issue any
permits for removal unless the number
of petitioners were secured in the block
to be moved to required by law. The
