KISSES.
little kisses I shut your eyes;

With little kisses shut your eyes;
I would not have them seeing and wises
For, could choose, ! would have you DO
Blind ever as now, when you look on mel
A wreath of kisses to crown your head,
That the whole worlds crown should adof1 m
stead,
To keep your thought of me ever kind,
As now, when your darling eyes are blind.
In each of your hands shut kih
Do YOU feel how soft and little it As2
So hold it gently that it may live,
Lest your hands ask more than my hands can 8fva.
A kiss for an earring in each dear ear,
And now when speak you can only hear
The heart of my hearts heart laugh and cry,
Not the foolish words it is stifed by.
A kiss on your mouth and it bears no charm
To bring you to good, to keep you from harm;
1t has no mission. yet let it be;
The rest were for you. but this is for mel

A COMPARISON.

I'd ruther bay out here among the 4reeA
with the eingin birds and bumbletees,
A.knowin that can 60 as please,
Than to live what folks call LIFE OF ease
Up thar in the city.
For really don't 'xactly understan'
Where the comfort is for any maip
In walkin hot bricks and usin f!an
And enjoyin himself as he says hescan.
Up thar in the city.
IT'S kinder lonesome, mebbe you'll say,
Alvin out here day sfter day
In this kinder easy, careless way,
But an hour out here's better'n day
Up thar in the city.
Az for that, just look at the flowers aroun'
A-peepin their heads up all over the groun',
And the fruit a-bendin the trees way down;
You don't find sech things as these in town,
Or, ruther, in the city.
Az said aforc, sech things a. these
The flowers, the birds and the bum'lbeeS
And alvin out here among the trees,
Where you can take your ease and dos 70,
please
Make it better'n the city.
Now, all the talk don't mount to snuff
Bout this kinder life a-bein rough,
And Pm sure It's plenty good enough,
And, tween you and me, faint as tough
As Twin in the city.

Life to the most favored is not always
full of sunshine, but to the average
American girl or woman who is obliged
to work for her living. and, perhaps
to help others at home, lite is often d
heavy drag in consequence of illness.
Women who work, especially those
who are constantly on their feet. are
peculiarly liable to the development
of organic troubles, and should par
ticularly heed the first manifestations,
such as backache, pains in the lower
limbs and lower part of the stomach,

The late City Council at their last
meeting awarded the contract to pave
Gloucester street with vitrihed brick 10
Mr.. George Jewell. contractor, but the
Counsellor OF the last board failed to
draw up the contract. and the present
City Counsellor contends it is not his job
and refuses to do il. THIS puts Mr..
Jewell between the devil and the deep
blue sea. and unless the present City
Counsellor should draw up the contract,
the matter will remain in statu quo.
In the meantime the sidewalks are
piled with brick and curb TO the detriment
OF the residents along this street. whose
patience has almost ceased TO be vir-
ture. Every street in the city. including
the by streets and alleys, has been
paved while Gloucester street. one of the
principal thoroughiares of the city, has
been sadly neglected. II is claimed that
a number OF persons in this ward refused
20 support the last Democratic ticket and
absented themselves from the polls at the
late municipal election on account of the
dlaiory neglec, OF the residents OF this
street. No section of the city has been
more neglected than this, while it is one
OF the most popular thoroughfares in the
city. II is to be hoped that the present
City Counsellor. and contractor may agree
upon some amioahle terms. whereby the
contracts may be drawn up and signed,
and the work proceeded with when ready.

THE NEW BROOM.

A change in administration OF munich
pal affairs always brings with it necessary
evils. These are evidenced in our city
NJ this time, and have been noticed for
some weeks past-at least since the cleo
ton decided the ms and outs. The
streets throughout the city are in filthy
condition. The outgoing force having
been paid off and knowing they were
to be turned down, practically quit work
Cat least to all appearances) some time
since. There is not a clean street in town
and the daily excursionists from Balti-
more on the Emma Giles" IRE heard
to comment on "the dirtie ,own they
ever saw.
The fire plugs need flushing, a large
hole in the new paving on Yves; street
near Calvert needs repairing and is get
ting worse and worse every day through
neglect. and countless other things are
due to the change in municipal affairs.
Ii is hoped the new administration which
goes into effect today will look after the
welfare and neat appearance of the city.
and will have some other object in view
save only the drawing oftheir salaries. "
We hope there will be something more
efIeotual and lasting in the new munich
pality than the "new-broom-sweeps-
clean" theory, but that the broom may
be ever new. and the sweeping always
clean, and the last end OF the present
municipal administration may even be
better than the first.

THE Federal Weather Bureaus week
ly crop report. issued Monday, presents
a hopeful view OF crop conditions in the
great agricultural section of the West.
The damage from drought has not been
so serious as had been anticipated, while
even in parched areas, except where
early corn has been prematurely ripened,
the benefcent influences OF recent rams
have induced marked improvement. So
vast is the area devoted TO cereal crops
that even a severe drought is scarcely
more than local visitation. like plague
OF weevils or grasshopers.
