WANTS 1T IN THE LANES.
Public Works Director Not Satisfied
with the Present Garbage System.


An ordinance amending the present gar
bage ordinance will soon be introduced in
the City Council. Director of Public
Works Gadsden complains that the pres
ent ordinance is not satisfactory, and 1t
is understood that an alderman who
shares his view will submit a substitute
at an early meeting.
1t is now required that the occupant of
every house shall provide two receptacles
for garbage and that it must be separat-
ed, the non-combustible being placed in
one barrel or box and the combustible in
another. AS a matter of fact, Mr.. Gads-
den declares, the division is made in but
few cases, all the garbage of the premises
being usually dumped into one recepta-
Gle. Nor is this box or barrel placed
near the gate, as the law directs. On
the contrary, IL is usually close to the
house. servants finding IL more convenient
to make the scavenger man walk than to
walk themselves.
It frequently happens that the men
who drive the scavenger wagons cannot
open the gates of the premises to reach
the garbage barrels. Complaints about
the non-removal of accumulated garbage
often result, and Investigations disclose
that the fault has been through gates be-
ing locked and the wagon drivers, there
fore being unable TO gain entrance to the
yards
Mr. Gadsden wants the work of the
scavenger department, which comes I'M
der his supervision, facilitated and made
more effective by an ordinance demand
ing that the barrels be placed in the
lanes. outside the gates. The division into
con hustble and non-combustible matter
also should be made. A great deal of
time could be saved by such an arrange
ment and the difficulty about gaining en-
trance 10 yards would be removed.

HATS IN EARLY WINTER.
Timely Hints From the Millinery
Trade Review.

The smartest of these shapes have
the brim cut through as far as the
crown in two places, so as to form a
sort of tab at the back. The corners of
the brim are generally allowed to lie
fiat against the hair at the sides
whereas the tab, properly wired. may
be lifted like sunblind over window
Underneath it may be placed a cluster
of flowers or bow; as these shapes
are mostly worn with strings-a pecu-
liarity only extended to them and to
some capotes-the ribbon composing
the bow may be borrowed from the
center of the length of ribbons used
for tying under the chin. Directories
are always in thin, smooth piled felt,
and when covered with velvet also;
nevertheless. there is no reason why
satin, or even silk, should not be used
as well as for lining hats of other
shapes
Various modes of trimming are
adopted, but the drapery of silk or
satin about the crown and the plume
of ostrich feathers seems most applic-
able for the outside ornamentation.
More variety exists in the nature of
the trimming placed under the front
of the brim; frequently this is merely
caught back by loop of the material
used for the drapery, the crown of the
hat resting on velvet bandeau, which
should match the strings, and, there
fore, is more often than not of black
velvet ribbon. The bandeau is plated
fiat or twisted and finished with a
small bow on the left side, or is merely
foundation for a handsome band of
open-work metal set with simili,
mostly provided in Greek key designs.
In some cases, however, the whole I'M
der side of the brim will be covered
with trimming, satin and velvet roses
on one side, and folds of material or
large roset on the other.
Some new Rembrandts have appear
ed that instead of being covered
smoothly in the mode most usual for
picture hats, have the velvet arranged
after one of the styles described in my
last letter. Two wide folds will be
uSeu " CONSl Tic Ulluu, IuSoC uSluS
stretched out to their fullest extent
in front where the brim is widest, and
gathered up at the back in folds; q
third much wider piece of velvet
serves as lining, and is brought over
the edge thus forming three folds or
the upper side of the brim. If the
crown is cylindrical two folds of vel
vet encircle it and the top is covered
fiat or in gathers; many of these hats
however, have big domed crowns
which are generally covered entirely
with closely drawn or honeycombeC
plated velvet. In this way the Gov
ering is made to do duty for trim
ming.
Charming effects are obtained by
making this of three different shades
the darkest being chosen for the lin
ing, the lightest for covering tn,
crown and the intermediate one for the
folds on the brim. The only decora
ton, properly so called, that is needed
is handsome, couteau poised hori
zontally on the up-turned side of the
hat.
An Amazon hat turned up regularly
on both sides, so as to box in almos
completely the moderately high cylin
drical crown, is one of the novelties il
felt, similar shapes being also used t
cover with velvet. The width of the

ADAM NEVER WAS A BOY.


VI all the men the world has seen
Since Time his rounds began,
there's one I pity every day
Earth's first and foremost man;
just think of all the fun he missed
BY failing to enjoy
The dear delights of youthtime,
For--he never was a boy.
He never stuhbed his naked toe
Against a root or stone,
He never with a pin hook fshed
For minnows all alone,
He never sought the bumblebee
Among the daisies coy,
Nor felt it's business end,
Because-he never was boy.
He never hockey played nor tied
A bright and shining pail
Down in the alley all alone,
To trusting poodles tail,
And when he home from swimmin
came,
His pleasure to destroy
No slipper interfered
Because-he never was a boy.
He might remember splendid times
In Eden's bowers-yet
He never acted Romeo
To 6-year Juliet.
He never sent a valentine m
Intended to annoy
his good but maiden aunt,
Because-he never was boy.
He never cut a kite string, no,
Nor hid an Easter egg;
He never spoiled his pantaloons
A-playin' mumbley-peg.
He never from the attic stole
A coon hunt to enjoy,
Nor found the "old man" waiting,
For-he never was a boy.
pity him. Why should I not?
l even drop a tear
He never knew how much he Missed
He never will fear.
And always when those dear old days
My memories employ,
pity him, earth's only man
Who-never was a boy.
