A SUGGESTION TO couscrL.

While Council is considering the pro-
.iect for the extension OF the city Inn
it's, would it not be well and to the
best interest of all concerned, to
square off, as it were, the beunda-
ries of Savannah, so that the pay
ment of city taxes in the future will
be made to depend upon distance from
the center of population and the real
benefits received by the owners of
property?
As the corporate limits are now
fixed, there is gap here and there,
by which certain properties, just as
near the city as others on which taxes
are paid, are not within the corporats
limits When the new limits are
established the extension should be
equal in every direction. This will not
do an injustice TO anyone, but in reai-
ity will help owners of large tracts
of land. These will be rendered more
valuable by reason of the fire and Pc
lice protection they will receive. The
extension of the city limits will thus
bring into the market lowpriced lots.
and thereby offer opportunities for
home builders and investors.
When the limits are extended there
is another point that Council should
take into early consideration. This
is the question of securing rights-of-
way for streets at low prices, which
can be done il the streets are surveyed
and laid of as soon as a new area Is
brought within the taxable limits OF
the city. A mistake has been made in
the policy of the city in thfs respect
in the past. and thousands of dollars
have been paid as the cost of procras-
tination. II would be worse thar
foolish to repeat the same error OF
judgment.
The Savannah morning news., 1901-09-02

ment. There is probably not a country
doctor with the elements of successes in
him who would find it difficult to fit up
two or three rooms as an adjunct to
his Office, for hospital purposes The
rooms would need only to be clean and
properly ventilated, and the furniture
might be very plain, When a trained
nurse was not available, one on more
of those good, motherly souls that are
to be found in every neighborhood
could be awaited of as nurses. They
are always ready and willing in. the
cause of suffering.
Such a village hospital would be in
expensive, and a veritable boon and
'benefaction in case of need. In the
erection and maintenance of such an
institution the village doctor would be
combining business and philanthropy.
He would provide a. haven of refuge
for the sick and injured, and at the
same time enlarge his experience, in
fiuence and bank account The old
prejudice against going to a hospital
is fast dying out in the rural districts,
and when the nearby residents learn
led that the doctor had fixed up a neat
place where patients would be under
his eye and where, nursing Of the prop
er sort was to be had they would
avail themselves OF the advantages of
the village hospital when in need of
the doctors care.
IT is not suggested that these should
be efauitable institutions, but that pa
TENTS should pay for their acconInoda-
tions and the services of the physl-
clans. Many a country doctor who is
now struggling to make. AZ living. by
the. adoption of this idea, which
could be put in operation for a small
outlay, might soon find his practice
profitable. Such an enterprising doctor
would draw patients within the circle
Of a days journey around his office.
and would prove himself good Sa-
maritan to the traveller who CHANGED
upon ill-health or accident in the COM
munity.

THE PRACTICE OF TIPPING.

Whenever we hear of a movement to
abolish the tipping system in this coun-
try, in even one of it's multifarious
forms, we are wont to murmur, under
our breath, a fervent Godspeed to it.
If people had the nerve they would pro-
claim their objections to the system in
the very strongholds of its observance.
And it is not that we are mean about
the matter, either. We have no more
objection than the average man to pay
for extra or specially good service;
what we do object to is to have to pay
an additional gratuity to our waiter or
barber for a service for which he is
supposed to be paid by his employer,
on pain of waiting Unfortunately for a
meal or of facing the heat rays now
so much in evidence with cuticle
that looks and feels as IL it had been
gone over with a lawn mower or a po-
tato crater instead of a razor.
Recently there was started an agita-
ton in favor of abolishing tips in
barber shops in Philadelphia, but 1t
has fallen through. The trouble
was that the proprietors OF the shops
would not lend it their countenance
and refused to establish rule which
would prohibit tipping. They preferred
to pay their employees small salaries
and let them have a chance to make
a living out of their customers. The
result of the practice, as easily OBJ
served in one city as another. is that
one cannot, secure good service in a
barber shop unless he is willing to tip
the wielder of the razor and his pros
pective successor in the tonsorial art,
the present manipulation of the clothes
a shave for Is cents. which is the al
legged rate. the customer is fortunate If
he gets out of the shop, after being
given good service. having given up
less than thirty.
That is more than the man of small
income can afford. and the tipping
practice is driving more and more men
to shave themselves. The proprietors
Of shops are standing in their own
light when they permit the practice to
continue, and sooner or later they will
come to realize il. II the rate for a
shave is not enough let it be increased.
and then let IT be understood that the
amount regularly charged is all that
is TO be paid. The proprietors would
and they would make money by the
change and be the objects OF a sudden
popularity they had not thought them
selves capable of arousing in the pub
lie breast.

Grams stopped story telling and went
home their yarns have been slowly

He was carried before Gen. Grant,

the reply.

would be freely answered. Then he be-

here?''

reply.

Gen. Lee is there. General, where will
you go when you die?'

comic reply.
Then the spy sadly remarked:

ether; Gen. Stonewall Jackson is
there
Well" replied the General to the
last remark. maybe there will be no
place for me to go except to hades."
Yes laughed the spy. you will

Things frequently happen on the
stage that are not down on the pro-
gramme," said weIl-known theatrical
man, to a reporter of the Times-Dem-
ocrat, and sometimes the least thing
in the world will disconcert the most
finished artist. At West End a few
evenings ago saw an electric bug
frighteu one of the singers until, she
forgot her lines and rushed off the
stage. The hug Just settled on the
ruffies of her skirt. and was doing no
harm whatever, but il so disconnected
the young lady and made her so ner-
vuus that she had to- leave the stage
until she could rid herself of the bug.
Little. things of this sort affect wo-
men more than they do men unless the
men are of that peculiar and. highly
tensured nervous temperament which
we sometimes find ON the stage. l
recall curious thing in Memphis
some years ago, while BernhaTdt was
there, and ii convinced me that the
immortal Sarah was Just a little diff
ferent from the common run Of wO-
men, She was playing at the old Ly-
ceilm Theater, which has since burned

had gotten we'll to the center of the
stage. Her eyes fell to the stage
floor Just as mouse seanpered out
from the wings and rushed across the
stage right by her, and almost brush
ing the ruffie of her skirt. Other wo-
men might have leaped up. into the
nearest chair with piercing screams.
But not so with Bernhard. She stood
her ground unfiinehingly, and rolled
out her sentences in French without
even the slightest change in the into
nation of her voice, and without a
tw1teh of the muscles to Indicate that
she was at all alarmed. by the sudden
appearance of the mouse. But one OF
the cleverest things ever saw was

TOOK in the situation at a glance The
audience had begun to litter. She
quietly reached down, picked the cat
up, and sang her song while brushing
the purring pussie's fur back with her
pretty white hand, and it is not likely
that she ever received more applause
than she did on that occasion. 1t was
really the hit of the engagement"
