The Ironton Register says: eff
slack water navigation is establish
ed in the Ohio river, there will
have to be some stringent rcgula-
tions against empyting the sewage
of the cites into the stream. AL
ready, too much filth goes into the
river. Most of this is neutralized
by the flowing water; but once
hamper and obstruct that water,
and the Ohio valley will be the
valley of the shadow of death.
This is no argument against slack
water navigation, but is an argu-
ment against allowing the Ohio
river to become the cesspool of the
people along it's shores. AS soon
as the United States orders slack
water navigation, let it order puri-
fication of the river"

Make the Town AttractiYe.

1t should be the aim of the town
council and every good citizen, to
make the town attractive to our
selves as we'll as to strangers. Peo-
pie from all parts of the Union visit
our town and the Great Kanawha
Valley; and if we had the attrac-
tions we should have, many of these
visitors would remain longer in the
town. A town park, however small,
adorned with the much-talked-of
but slowly matorializing bandstand,
and streets lined with shade trees,
a nice walk along the Kanawha and
Ohio river banks, and other inn
provements of like nature, would
greatly enhance the beauty of the
town. Every householder, too, can
aid materially by keeping his front
yard adorned with flowers and
shrubs and pretty lawn, Il matter
which can be accomplished with n
very small outlay, and which adds
more TO the beauty of a town than
any of the improvements suggested
above. We who live in the town
grow accustomed to its eyesores
and shortcomings, and our home
has natural beauty for us which
is not observable to strangers, but
we must look at these things from
the point of view of the traveller
who is seeking comfort, beauty,
and the like.

BIRDS AT SEA.
The Pretty Little Creatures as Described
by Sir Edwin Arnold.

The Pretty little Creatures 40 Described
by Sir Edwin Arnold.
Sir Edwin Arnold, in an account of his
voyage to America, says: EVERY day we
see playing around the ship and skim
ming up and down the wave hollows COM
panics of lovely little terms and sen swal
lows, the lattor no larger than thrushes.
Thc7e fearless people of the waste have not
by any means followed us from the land,
living, as guils often will on the waste
thrown from the vessel.
"lhey are vague and casual roamers of
the ocean, who, spying tho great steam
ship from aiar, have sailed close up to Gee
if VIC are /; rock or an island and will
then skip away again on their own free
ard hcuaGlcys business Yonder tiny
bird, with pirple and green plumagc, his
little hreaet ard neck laced with silver, is
distant / 900 miles ut this moment from 4
drop Of fresh water, and yet cares no more
for that fact than did the Irish squire who
lived ls miles from lemon.
"If his wings ever grow weary, it Is but
to scttle on the busom of great billow
and suffer it FOR Il time to rock and roll
him amid the kissing spindrift, the milky,
flying foam and tho broken sea lace which
forms and CLEANS and disappears again
upon the dark slopes. When he pleases, 4
stroke of the small red foot and beat Of
the wonderful wing launch him off from
the Jagged edge of his billow, and he lits
past us at 100 knots an hour, laughing
steam and canvas to scorn and steering
for some numeless crag in Labrador or
Fundy, or bound, it may be, homewarti
for some island or marsh Of the PARKWAY
Irish coast.
Maryelously expressive of power as Is
our untiring engine, which oil day ind
night throbs and pants and pulses in noisy
rhythm under the deck, what II clumsy,
imperfect affair it is compared to tho
dainty pluInes and delicate muscles which
will carry that pretty fearless sea swallow
back to hs tr'--London Telegraph.

Do mon or women best unAerstsnd cQm-
fort9 The ansYef would pAtufslly seem 70
DO women. Yet who shall deny that .
bachelors establishment is often the better
conducted and MOST luxurious possiblep
Everything seems to ruin on we'll oiled
wheels, there is no friction, no anxious
looking mistress of the house with her keys
and hor worries, and no talk about serv-
ants the butler 10 respectful and attentive,
the cook excellent, the coachman smart
and punctual, and the wine irrcproachable.
1t is sad to confess, but even as hosts
men seem TO surpass women. They take
larger and more unsel1sh view Of mat
tiers; they are possibly more extravaganza
but they also get more value for their mon
ey; they adore comfort but care less for
show; they manage to acquire good serv-
ants and keep them, and, while they allow
them greater license, to insure obedience
and respect.
Even the small bachelors establishment,
wherein the cook housekecper reigns su.
preme, Is frequently tho scene Of pleasant
little parties, Of snug dinners, of cozy sup
pers. Now, II housekeeping be the true
vocation of women, as people say, how is
1t that men Guido usY The question Is ono
best left to tho future candidates for mat
rimony.

the ovRrsw LAW. PC


It's Bs.snts Cppssded by Every Csmmu-
mtg /. ~iieh One Il In Eject.
Edward ". Box, II The Ladies' Home
Joafnal, reviews The provisions and opera
lions Of the c,iSfew 6sdipanoe which, In
variously modified fosms, has been adopted
by municipal legislative bodies In the
west. He 6ites hearty Involvement to the
law and ASSERTS that, although II met
with general opposition at first, there Is
not city OF town In which it has been en-.
forced that would have 1t abolished.
"Wherever the ourfew ordinance has
gone into effect" Mr. Box contends, sits
advantages have been conceded This is
true now of over 800 towns and cities,
some as largein population AS Omaha and
Topeka In each case the excellence OF the
law has become apparent, opposing par
ents have conceded its wisdom, and even
children are said to be pleased with 1t. 1t
has placed IN the hands Of the police a
most effective weapon for clearing the
streets of hoodlu ms at night, and in many
cases where disorder reigned at street cor
ners quietncss, law and order now prevail.
So well has the ordinance worked that re-
ports gathered from not less than 40 of
tho towns where it is a law show that the
fine or imprisonment penalty has not been
inflicted in single case. The first eau
ton has served the purpose
"These reports show, too, that the ordi-
nance is not enforced in any oppressive
manner In the case of evening winter or
summer entertainments which would keep
the children out later than the curfew
hour authority is easily obtained and
readily granted by the mayor or town off
cial for al extension Of the time Its rigid
enforcement is applied most strictly to the
hoodlam element, and with this class tho
police claim they have never peen able to
deal SO successfully. 1t will be at once oh-
yious to ali right minded parents, think,
that they should give tine weight Of their
influence to the cariew ordinance wherever
it may be presented. Taken from any and
every STANDPOINT it is an excellent thing,
and it ,ray wisely be encouraged by par
ents all over our land"
