Counting on the Rum Contingent.

600 majority for Maine Democrats next
year. Perhaps the facial likeness isn't so
correct as it might be, but its clearly a
good deal nearer right than the figures,
without a doubt. Evidently Simon is
counting on large rum contingent-just
as he did in the last state campaign-and
voters will act accordingly. After being
mauled few more times the Democrats
of Maine may realize the fact that Pine
Tree citizens prefer temperance.

\ well known insurance magnate,
who was in the habit of taking almost
daily trips between Albany and New
York on the train, had the uncOmfort-
able experience of having a wheel
break right under his seat while the
train was going at full speed. BY a
fortunate jump he narrowly escaped
with his life. This experience made a
deep impression upon him.
Some weeks afterward he took the
same train, and, as it happened, was in
almost the same seat. As he was chat
ting with a friend he happened TO look
out of the window, and recognized the
landscape and the spot of his narrow
escape. Naturally he told his friend
the story Of the broken wheel.
1T was exactly in this spot it hap
pened. The train was making the same
speed. IL was the most awful grinding
noise 1 ever heard. 1t makes me trem-
bic 70 think Of it. Great heavensl
There It is again.
The identical accident had actually
happened on the same train. almost be
tween the same two fields adjoining the
track. and the victim Of this strange
coincidence barely escaped the same

A Plea for Roof Gardens.

Hygiene in architecture means TO
have, if possible. an exposure for the
morning sun, dry cellars, no dark
rooms, or even dark closets, perfect
ventilation and easy ~staircases. Rather
the stairs shoold not be cased at all.
But ! do not believe the story. which
is often told, that in cholera epidemics
those fan easy victims whqIve on the
sunless sides OF streets, while those who
mhabit the sunny side are compare
lively exempt For what is true in
cholera must be comparatively true in
other epidemics, which is unproven.
But when we are advised 10 build roof
gardens, no better counsel could be
listened to. Almost every city house
should have a roof garden. The OBJ
Ject Of such gardens is not only 70 grow
flowers and grapes and other fruits,
but 10 furnish summer arbors of beau
ty for rest and sleep.
IcOuld show you gardens of this sort
where families grow a large proportion
Of their vegetable Injuries, such as let
tnce, tomatoes, pie plant. radishes and
grapes, figs and strawberries. An album
dance Of flowers can also always be had.
1 believe we shall come around after a
while to an architecture that makes as
much of roofs as of the other floors.
There we shall have such opportuni-
ties for pure air as nowhere else. But
at present, quite unlike those who live
IN eastern lands. we make no use al all
Of the roof IL is simply our water
