Lively Growth,

Several new dwelling houses in
different parts of the village are
going up. In the southern part of
the town, Duncan McCuaig has
nearly completed a, neat cottage
building, the Lutherans have q
good-sized parsonage about fin
ished, lumber is on the ground for
a house, near the
residence of Geo. Williams, a
house is we'll started not far from
the residence of A. F. Howard,
while across the river, in North
Princeton, the hustle of building
goes merrily on. R. E. Jones has
a building we'll along that will be
among the finest dwellings in that
part of town. John G. Varney
has also a new two-story house up
and enclosed. 1t is nicely designed
and adds a hundred per cent to the
appearance of that locality. Jos.
Nokes has erected a new house,
just outside the corporate limits,
on his recently acquired farm.
There are new buildings on the
road, a little beyond the limits of
town, in Shannon Park. There
are several other building in pros
pect, that will soon be under way.
They will be duly noted at the
proper time. The season opens
up auspiciously for the growth of
Princeton. The summer bids fair
to be one of unprecedented pros
perity in every way. Water works
and electric lights in the village,
besides the other improvements
noted,' are items that are sufficiently
important to warrant another toot-
ing of our own horn.

nearly all towns, bird houses are

of no import to the thought

a careful basis that insect life
would be increased to such an ex.
tent by absence of birds that we
would find life not worth the

ARBOR DAY.
Tree Planting Quite Extensively
carried ON in this Village,
Friday.
The Day Of the Future, Growing
in Favor With Recurring

Years.
jArbor Day, Friday last, was
generally observed throughout the
wi lage, and in other parts of the
county by the planting Of trees
and shrubbery. There was no gen.
eral celebration of the occasion,
but in a quiet way, around the lit
tie city, men, women and children
w ere at work putting in trees of
various kinds, setting out rose
bushes, lilac shrubs and other
species of Towering shrubbery.
The schools did not take an active
part in the work this year, owing
to the absence Of many from the
various departments, who have
been at home, since the breaking
out of the scarlet fever two or
three weeks ago. AS near as
could we'll be ascertained, about
three hundred trees, consisting of
pine, cedar, spruce, poplar, elm
and maple, were set out Friday.
Not satisfied with one day,
the work is still 90
ing on, and the. result will
be, and that not far IN the future,
the production of the finest dis.
play of beautiful shade trees. The
trees that have been put out in
other years, have added an hun
dred fold to the beauty Of the
town, and the yearly addition tc
supply places of dead trees, and
beautify streets and property, will
still further increase the attractive.
ness. All holidays, with the ex
ception of Arbor Day, relate. tc
some important fact that deals with
days gone by, and connected with
the present by effects on the
history of the people of the pres.
ent. AS a natural process, this
interest must grow less strong, as
time rolls on in his ceaseless
course. Not so with Arbor Day,
which relates to time yet unborn.
Trees planted this year, grow and
develop source of comfort fo1
generations yet to come. Many
who planted beautiful shade trees
20 or 80 years ago, now a source
of pride, comfort and loneliness,
have passed to the realm of the
grave, and the tree planter of to-
day, is in like manner adding his
contribution to the welfare and en-
ioyment of those who follow him
in succeeding generations. The
effect of tree planting has its be-
nefcent influence on the weather
conditions of country, in the
production of rain fall, and in the
maintenance of stable conditions OF
the air. The variable weather OF
the past few years must be placed
at the door of the vandals who
have so remorselessly moved down
the great forests of this State.
Drouths, cyclones, and other de-
structive phenomena, find their
main springs in the removal of the
forests. Briefly considered and
summed up, the Importance of
tree planting, can not be over
estimated. Legislative enactments
are now on our statute books look
ing to the preservation of the re-
naming forests, and it would be a
wise provision to have the laws 90
further and require q certain out
lay of public moneys each year for
tree planting purposes.

Edison's Minor Inventions

~ It is not the electric lights nor tlS
photographs, nor any Of the othsr
things with which Mr.. Edison's name
Sc connected that strikes the visitor ss
the greatest part Of his work. It is
the invention Of the innumerable
machines with which these things ate
made. The idea of the electric light
would have been of no use in the
world without machines for making
the lamps and the other parts. All of
these machines had to be invented
and made by the electricians, and
there are thousands of them-some no
bigger than toy engine, some as
large, nearly, as house. Many of
them are so delicate that they are
operated with belt no larger than
shoestring. One of them is used for
polishing jewels for use in the phono-
graphs. Without being touched by
anybody it holds the tiny jewel in
every possible position, shifting it,
turning it, absolutely feeling it, to
learn whether it is smooth, and all
the while its delicate fingers are at
work rubbing. rubbing at the jewel,
which IS no bigger than the head of a
large pin. No boy could move his
fingers more dexterouslJ than this

Cfeanest Town in the World.

The cleanest town in the world IS
said to be Brock, in Holland. II
is only few miles from the capital.
and has been famous for its cleanli'
ness from time immemorlal. 1t Is
also notable on account Of the fancl-
full style of its houses and yards and
gardens and streets. The people,
though only peasants, are all we'll to
do, and all feel pride IN their town:
It seems to be the first business c.
their lives to keep their houses freshly
painted, their gardens III perfect
order, and their yards and streets as
clean as o parlor. No carts are al
lowed in the streets, and no cattle.
Though the raising of stock and the
making CT butter and cheese are their
occupations, q stranger would never
imagine that there were any cattle IN
the region, unless he went to the
beautiful green meadows at the back
of the houses, or the stables out there,
where COWS are kept in stalls scrubbed
and washed like kitchen. The streets
are too fine and neat for the feet OF
animals to step on; all are paved with
polished stones, interniugled with
bricks of different colors, and kept SO
scrupulously clean that lady could
walk anywhere in white satin slippers

. Gur S. Ruin2ds' Industries.

Notwithstanding the high price Of
leather, the shoe manufacturers of the
country are keeping up with the in
dustrial procession. During the last
three weeks 23S,099 boxes of shoes
have been sent out from the New Eng
land factories, against 207, 9S4 in the
corresponding period of last year.
Since the 1st of January there has
been an increased export demand for
shoes as well as for leather. At the
ua~e time the cotton spinners and
voolen weayers of New England have
=, ore to do than for a long time, and
advances in wages are the order OF the
dav. These ere the industries, above
ali others, upon which the protection
lists predicted that the new tariff would
have a "ruinous' effect. But their
prophecies OF evil have already been
diseraced and their howls of calamity
si!enced by the hum of the cotton and
WOODEN mills. As for the iron and
steel manufactures, also doomed to
"ruin" by the new tariff, the blaze Of
the furnace fires and the tremendous
ncise of the mills have quite bewild-
cred them. This is painfully betrayed
in their absurd efforts to disparage
the industrial movement and to mis-
interpret its causes. Their present as
sertions and denials are SIS worthless

nuajnt Superslitions About Sho 3.

When you buy a pair Of new sEoes
never put them on q shelf higher than
your head, unless you want to bring
bad luck; and if you blacken them
before you have had both shoes on
YOU may meet with an accident. or
even have sudden death. This is an
oh Irish superstition. The Seotch
girls believe that if they drop their
shoes before they are worn, trouble
will ensue, while a French lady looslng
her heel is sure Of some dlsappolnt'
ment in love, and a German mother
in the same predlcament feels that she
will soon lose one OF her children.
You must not put your right shoe or
your left foot or your left on your
right, nor must you put your left shoe
on before the right unless you want
bad luck. This superstition dates back
to one of the Emperors Of Rome, who,
it is recorded, put on his left shoe
first one morning, and came near be-
ing assassinsted during TIE day.
