In the days of the presidency of Capt.
w. G. Raoul. the Central Railroad had
under consideration a project for increas-
ing the harbor facilities, which was APP
parenty so great an undertaking that
some persons thought those who proposed
it were fit subjects for the lunatic asy-
lum The project was to move all of the
buildings on the river front southwark
to the proper building line of Bay street,
and to utilize the space thus gained for
wharf purposes. The scheme is more
feasible to-day than it was when first
contemplated. 1t is well known that in
most of the buildings along the bluff the
floors below the level of Bay street are
not used The valuable parts of the
buildings are the top stories, on level
with Bay street. These top stories could
be separated from the lower stories and
moved to the proper line of the street,
and the space left could be used for rail-
way tracks and wharves. In some places
there would have to be considerable ex-
cavating to reach the level of River
street. The earth removed from such
places could be used in flling-in on Hutch
inson's Island, just opposite. There are
many persons who think the improvement
will have to be made one of these days
and that the sooner it is done the better
it will be for the city

There is a movement on foot TO have

dispensary law, modelled on the South
Carolina institution. Many of the lead

strongly against the proposition. THE dis

wants no dispensary riots, no spies to in

The action of City Council in refusing
10 permit an encroachment upon the Duff
fly street sidewalk will doubtless meet with
the approval of a majority of the people.
The petitioners in this case represented a
church, and the concession requested was
for the purpose of charging the church
edihce. OF course every right-thinking
person wishes to see all of the churches
large and prosperous; and if any special
privileges are to be granted the churches
ought to have them. But the time has
come when there should be no further en-
croachments upon the streets permitted
under any circumstances. Savannah is no
longer little town, in which it does not
matter if building goes by rule-of-thumb
Many thousands of dollars have been
spent for the purpose of improving and
identifying the streets, and it would be
inconsistent to make this large outlay and
then block the sidewalks Property own
ers crowd houses on lots that are too
small for them, and then wish the city
to give them a part of the streets in order
that the buildings may be rendered COM
Portable. There should be a law passed
denoting the street lines, and then there
should never be a step or a stoop built
beyond that line.

 With the aid of carpenter she then had small shelves and glass doors put in, and couple of secret drawers to lend charm to the cabinet.
 When all had been stained a suitable shade of pine she took fresh autumn leaves of ruddy hue and pinned them upon the cabinet, and over all she placed two coats of heavy varnish. The screen was managed in the same way. The mat" of the screen was plain pine, stained oak. while all around it were autumn leaves pinned on and vanished. The leaves keep their color perfectly if used when fresh.

 Its walls are decked with beauty,
 And it's portals are of pearl. My palace that hope for by and by.
 O'my castle in the air. ~
 Care can never enter there. And poverty or worry ne'er annoy.
 There no sin can ever trouble.
 And no want can ever come, Nor slightest thought of sorrow mar It's Joy.

 It is filled with treasures rare To satisfy the longings of the soul!
 No eye hath seen it's beauty,
 And no ear its music heard; No mortal e'er conceived the wondrous whole. o my castle in the air, It hath bliss beyond compare, For the King in all His beauty reigns with in; And there His servants serve Him, And there His angels sing The chorus of redemption from all sin.
 o my castle in the air,
 Shall ever enter there, Where the Lamb once slain for sinners is it's light?
 Shall ever join the chorus Which the saints triumphant sing? That multitude unnumbered clothed in --JIarriet I- Daruinr i, N V Ohseryer

Educational Needs of the Aver
 age Woman.

What, then, does the average woman need9 In the first place thorough manual training. She needs to know how to cook q wholesome meal properly, to put it on the table appetizlngly, aud t. do this with the minimum ex- penditure of energy. It is one of the most hopeful signs i'll element ary education that kitchen garden ing and household training are be- ing introduced into those schools which the children of the general population attend. The need of this practical domestic training for girls has prabably been sufilc- iently emphized, but ill the gener- al readlustment' of occuptlons and duties going on between men aud women. it is more and more appar- ent that boys as well as girls need certain amount of elementary domestic training. It Is a mere fetich, for instance, that women should de all the inending or even have all the care of children.
 There are many families in which family happiness, comfort and prosperity would be greatly promoted if the husband aud fath CT could, at least in aa emergency take :; competent share in the rou tine work of tke household.
 There are may generous and kindly husbands wllo would he glad to b ip, but yho are incap- able through lack of elementary training. Since tho bearing and rearing oT children is tine most important function of women, the mother must be relieved, at times, from many of her household cares. 1 If there be not money enongh to hire extra service, 1t is ineyit- able tho father should take, at lpast telnporarinly, some cf these duties, if tue family is to be main ltaincd in comfort.

1t Adds to the Beauty of Maid as Well
 as Natr0n.
 There are many things in the lives of women which tend to develop carriage of the body anything but upright. Girls who tend the baby become one- sided because they carry the little one on one arm more than the other. They might be taught the better way by their parents or teachers. There are multi tudes of little girls in all large cities whose chief business is to tend the baby while their mothers work. Deformity is common among them. If a girl has any pride in being upright in body as well as in morals, she can, even if she has an occupation which tends to make her crooked, do much herself to pre- vent it. In the first place carefully cultivate the sense which tells her when she is standing straight and whom she is not. By paying attention to this muscular sense it becomes in time very acute. By neglecting if the sense becomes dull-is parnlyzed. Cultivate it daily or several times day by as suming the upright attitude. Stand be- fore the glass and see when you are straight, or get friend 10 tell you, and then put yourself in this attitude whenever you stand or walk, CT sit at any labor in which you arc engaged. If you have only 10 walk acrcss the room. do it in an upright attitude. If you have only to stand and converse with friend in the street, on tho road, at q party, get yourself 50 accustomed to the upright attitude that you will feel uncomfortable in any other. In time an upright habit will be cstab- lished, and constant attention 10 it will not be required. Hetetic Gazette.

Facts For Tired Mothers.

Whiskey will take out every kind of fruit stain. If whiskey IS poured on the berry stain before sending to the wash, it will ccme out clean as new.
 Never eat when exhausted, physically or mentally, but sip either hot water or hot milk until refreshed.
 Whatever house does, or does not contain, it should have plen- ty of stools. Nothing is more refreshing than to get the weight of the body from the feet by resting them on something above the level of the floor.
 Whitewash spots can be re- moved by instantly washing in strong vinegar.
 Two or three drops of turpen- tine is an old, but excellent, ver- mifuge. It will quickly relieve a child when a deathly pallor about the mouth indicates the cause of illness, and is never harmful.
 In washing tumblers or goblets that have been used for milk, do not plunge them into hot water without first rinsing them in cold, else they will have milky ap- pearance.
 When you have jar or vessel to wash that has contained dough or other "sticky" substance. pour into it a quart of boiling water, cover closely, and in few min utes it will be found to wash very easily.
 Cold tea is an old fashioned /, vet none the less efficacious, rem edy for sore eyes. Bathe the eyes frequently, especially before retiring, and you will soon find relief.
 Potato poultice is very success fully used in treating unframed eyes. Boil the common Irish DO tato, mash it we'll, then stir in a dusting of finely powdered slip pery elm bark. Apply the poul- tice in the usual manner. A good cement for china or earthenware dishes is made of gum arabic water mixed to a smooth paste with plaster of Paris. A dish thus mended may be use d for years.
 It is all we'll enough to prac- tice economy in the household, and saving in the kitchen soon tells in the expense column; but the most important saving in any household. is the saving of til e wife and mother. If no one else sees the necessity for this branch of economy, the wife and mother should make it her business to save herself, no matter what other waste occurs.
