One place where the signboard nuis-
ance has not disfigured the natural
scenery is the waterfront of the Wis
consin river for some miles up and
down the Dells. The smooth surfaces
of the stone walls, the crags, cliffs and
standing rocks invite extensive paint
ing and pencilling, which would be in
plain view from decks of the steamers
passing up and down the stream, but
up to this time no amount of money has
been able to control the privilege from
single individual owner. 1t is said
that some time ago the agent of con-
Germ which manufactured a certain de-
coction succeeded in painting huge
sign on the rocky cliff near the steam
boat landing at KibourlI. He was over
taken brought back to the scene of his
handwork and given the alternative of
scraping off the letters or being ducked
in the river. He agreed to obiterate
the sign, somewhat to the disappoint-
ment of the residents, who were just in
the mood for the ducking.

The owners of concessions in the
Paris exposition grounds, who have lost
such immense sums of money since the
show opened, are trying their best to
get out of bad bargain. None of them
have paid the second instalment of
their rentals and they do not propose
to, if they can help it. All the restau-
rant keepers have now appealed to the
government to cancel the charge, urg
ing, among other things, that the low
price of tickets of admission to the ex-
position has resulted in bringing in a
class of people too poor to spend any
money, who carry their lunches and
dinners in baskets and eat on the
grounds.

Russian stamps having been substitute

people have adopted an unofficial
