Citizens of Boston and vicinity, with

united on this remonstrance against
the proposed vast increase of naval
expenditure:

SINGING OF GOOD TIMES.

The music of the mocking birds-the
JOY of all the rills;
Let MS see in all the winters, where the

The soil that yearns to blossom where
the flowers are safe in sleep.
Let MS sing about the good times; they

And all the world Is ringing with the
sllvery bells of Hope;
The blue skies bend above us-the

And the yiolctS spread carpet for the

How to Keep Well.

(Writteu for the Citizen 10y ;. II. II. J
The most beautiful face is the
perfectly happy one, for happiness
brings a shining light to the eye,
a new curve to the lip and
rounding Of the cheek. If we
make cheerful thoughts the face
OF each of our companions will
grow as surely as the rose petals
untold their beauty to the loving
sun. After one has reaches mid
dle-lite they have lost much of
their freshness of youth. This
expression Of beauty is a great
attraction. Every angry, bitter
word leaves a trail behind. Rest
is as necessary for the perfect de
yelopment of the body and mind
as is food. Fear of fresh air has
been directly responsible for
more ills that tle> h is heir 10 than
has any one other thing. Perfect
rest and sleep cannot be found in
the sleeping room that is close
and unclean, lily ventilated and
unSamitary. Through the eXclu-
sion of sufficient inflow of pure
air daily, sleeping rooms have
grown to be filled with disease
germs and beds have become un-
healthy. 1t is a lack of under
standing regarding the hygenic
principles Of life and living often.
TO keep well one must bathe
properly. The resttulneSs and
sense of delicious cleanliness
that follows the bath is well worth
any trouble it may cost us One
of the most helpful ways to battle
is to soften the water by putting
in one half pound of pulverized
boraX in twelve gallons of water.
1t diSSolves easily, makes the
water soft, gives the body Il
healthful glow and leaves the
skin soft and smooth. Every
woman should keep a flesh brush
for occasional use. 1t is a good
idea upon returning from a walk
or drive to always battle the face
and hands. 1t opens the pores
and does away with the CRIME
and soil Of outdoor exercise.
Think over these few suggestions,
they will help you.

THE REPORTERS KICKED.
Why the BUYERS In One Newspaper
Office Are Silent

Some years ago, when a certain Chica
building which was intended TO stand as
model for all other newspaper build
ings, somebody in authority conceived
the brilliant scheme of fixing an electric
''buzzer" on the desk of each reporter in
the local room so the city editor could
summon his slaves by merely pressing a
button instead of the time honored GUS
tom of summons by name through the Of
flee boy. The writer's were expected to
jump nimbly when the button was press
cd, report to the city editor for their as
signmCnts and hustle out to cover them
But the scheme slipped cog the very
first night the new office was occupied.
The reporters in nosing around the
shining new local room found the "buz-
Zers' and in Il moment discovered their
proposed utility. Immediately con
ference was held, and the staff decided it
was not composed of messenger or bclI
boys and would refuse to jump at the
summons of the buzzer a strike was
proposed if the powers insisted on the
use of the new device. In a little while
the city editor, pleased as a child with
new toy, pressed one of the buttons to
call certain reporter No one respond
ed. Thinking the arrangement was out
of order, he tried another and another,
and, although this time he heard the
buzzers buzz, no reporters appeared in
answer.
The next minute he jumped into the To-
cal room. white to the lips.
"What does this mean?' he demanded
of the staff in general. Am | to get any
answers to my callS?"
No one spoke.
Turning to the nearest reporter, he de-
mandcd personal explanation as to why
he had not answered the summons.
ooh, | thought that was intended for
the Office boy" said the reporter limo
Gently. IF I'm the messenger boy,

city editor after a moments thought. and

The Neat woman.

There is an exquisite charm about a
neatly dressed woman She does not
wear her hair loose, as if it is just about
to fall on her shoulders, says Woman'S
Life. Her gloves are not ripped at the
seams. nor are any huttonh missing from
her boots. Her veil does not reveal Il
hole over her chin, nor does the binding
of her skirt show ragged in places. Not
many women show their tidiness in these
details, but the well groomed woman
considers that neglect in these little
things is full of shame to womankind.
Note the well dressed tailor built woman.
Her cloth gown fits her without a crease.
and there is neither speck nor spot on it.
Her linen collar and cuffs are snowy
white and remain properly fixed in their
places. Her gloves do not wrinkle, but
button smoothly over her wrists. IIcr
shoes are dainty and polished. Her bon.
net or hat is pinned on straight, and her
hair is neatness itself. She is the picture
of delicate finish and wholesome order.
Would that we could come across her
somewhat oftener.
