It Is men and not material things that make the city. No better illustration of this was ever given than the case of Seattle after the great fire. While the machinery of the city's industrial life was destroyed, the motive power, hnman energy, remained unimpaired. Banks were opened the next morning in temporary quarters, all sorts of make shifts were resorted to to have business go on as usual, and, at noon, the lead- ing citizens in mass meeting resolved to replace the burned district with widened and strengthened thoroughfares and to have only "brick town" within the fire limits. Within 24 hours after the fire broke out, the heaviest losers were blast ing down the tottering walls, removing debris and contracting for larger and finef buildings. That is the kind of energy which makes real city Am erican.

GOOD voices are comparatively rare in
this part Of the land, and II has been
shrewdly guessed by musicians and phys
icians that the limestone dust from our
highways has something TO do with II.
And now n DR.. Kunze, of the University of
kiel, Germany, publishes Il report of n
series of examinations of lungs affected 10y
the breathing of dust. He finds that dust
lungs" as he calls those so injured, are
affected not only according to the quantity
but also according to tho kind of dust
lie concludes from his experiments that
even the greatest alterations in these lungs
such as nodes, indurations and vomicae-
are mainly produced by the inhaled dust,
and that tuberculosis is only an occasional
coincidence. The least serious alterations
In the lungs resulted from the inhalation
of lanp-black, the particles of which are
very fine and little injurious; the most
serious, from the dust inhaled by earthen-
ware manufacturers and stone masons." I"
There seems to be good reason to conclude
that however fortunate Lancastrians may
be in the general healthfulness OF their
surroundings their lungs and lives are
threatened by the fine dust from the streets
supplied with tireless liberality by a street
committee that will use soft stone.
