Cleaning Up Time.

As the Roanoke Times says, this is the
"cleaningup time of the year both inside
the home and upon the exterior and about
the streets and lots of the CITY,. The necessity
is apparent; for the sake of health it is imper
alive that the germs of disease be not allowed
to form on account of bad drainage, defective
plumbing or the accumulation of filth and
dirt in back yards and around the sheds and
stables for the sake of good appearances it is
obligatory to have the lawns raked over and
cleaned of the debris that may have accumu-
lated during the past few months. 1t will be
the duty of the board of public health of the
city to carefully hunt out everything that
savors of foulness and filth and seek a remedy
at once. 1t should be an object of especial at
tention of the street department to see that
the highways are kept clean and neat at all
times. Cleanliness is next to goodness, it is
said, and we can improve our condition here
by an observance of this motto. 1t costs little
to preserve tidy appearance while its value
is inestimable. -

''Of course, she did not get any transfer
ticket, although she continued to demand
one for several minutes. Then she started
off on another tack. The car was near
