The early fall is undoubtedly the best
time in the year to visit Niagara Falls; no
that the Falls are any better, but travelling
IS so much more comfortable. The intense
heat of summer and the severe cold of win.

covered with their autumnal foliage makip
the scenery of bewitching beauty.
The B. u. o. has arranged ten-day tour
to Niagara, September eth. The special

Dr. John H. Girdner, an eminent physician of New York, is starting a movement for the abatement of the un- necessary noises with which city peo- pie are afflicted by night as well as by day. The doctor suggests a society for the prevention of noises, with powers similar in scope, to the powers of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. Tt should" he says, make study of the noises of the city, and through its own powers, and by advice and cooperation of various city de- partments, suppress such noises as are unnecessary and reduce to the mini mum of disturbance those that are nee eSSary Such a work could not fail to be of immense benefit to the public, both in the matter of comfort and health. And the last word on the ad- vantage of a city of comparative peace and quiet cannot be said until account is taken of the assistance such a state of things would render the individual in securing that inward peace which passeth understanding"
