The SUNDAY Golfer.

A certain Sunday Golfer came to die
And sought reward of virtue up on
high;
He beat loudly at the door
And to Peter showed his score,
Thinking thus to gain admittance to
the sky.
But Peter said "Though you have no.
bly, fought hard luck,
Though your ball flew high when all
the others stuck,
Such record looks but poor,
On our books you may be sure,
If your wife remained at home to carve
the duck.
"If alone In your church pew she
sadly sat,
While far away you at a ball did bat,
Though you aimed, it's plainly
seen,
To drive over the ravine-
The great gulf below,-you never
thought of that!'
And as the Sunday golfer wiped his
eye
And turned to go, sweet strains were
waited by.
Hark The burden of the song
Chorused by the heavenly throng
Was, every day'll be Sunday by
and by"

FIGHT DUST WITH TAR.
Fsenchman Are Now Experimenting
Along Suggestions Coming All
the Why from California.

Perhaps it is thought that petroleum
serves but to burn in lamps and fur
naces and run our automobiles. That
is the use, perhaps, that we make of
it, but in America, California for exc
ample, petroleum is employed to water
even public roads. Persons who have
seen the operation declare it to be
marvellous. There is neither dust nor
odor, because the petroleum ANAL
gamates in a way with the dust and
clothes the soil with a sort of coating.
solid and durable as asphalt.
The towns which have adopted this
system economic, it is calculated, As
per cent. of the expenses occasioned
by the old plan of daily sprinkling
with water. As ton of petroleum
costs only 20 francs in California and
250 francs in France, it is not prac
ticable to adopt the American plan.
There is nothing, however. to forbid
us using mineral tar, of which the price
varies from IS to so francs the ton.
That is what DR.. Guglielminetti recon-
mends. who has employed it at Monte
Carlo with the same results as pc
troleum. Wetted with the tar the road
becomes compact and hard and rain
water runs upon it without penetrat-
ing.
Now it is in the dust that nestle the
microbes. since 100000 is the mean
number found in one gramme of dust,
so the new system of watering is con-
sidered eminently hygienic. The ex-
pense Of sprinkling a route five meters
wide would be about 300 francs per
kilometer. Since 1850 tarred route
has existed in the GirOnde before the
gas works. The Touring club of
France will make an experiment at
ChampignY, outside Paris, with tar
and tar oil.-Paris Letter in Chicago

VERY Plain Talk.

There may be "more truth than TO-

Rev. Mr.. Moore, rs timely and appro-

'Down in Atlantic City the other day
Rev. \. Lincoln Moore delivered an ad-
dress to convention of New Jersey
Baptists, in which he freed his mind
about the church choir. He said Very

solemnity of the divine worship is the

tones, trillings, warblngs, screenings,

titicially artificial, not one of them eX-
pressing an honest emotion of the heart,
but simply exhibiting the compass of
her voice, which frequently Is as metal

This is the season when the woman who
knows the best remedies for Group is in de-
mand in every neighborhood. One of the
most terrible things in the world is to be
awakened in the middle of the night by a
whoop from one Of the children. The Group
remedies are almost as sure to be lost in case
of Group, as a revolver is sure to be lost in
case of burglars. There used to be an old
fashioned remedy for Group, known as hive
syrup and tulu, but some modern mothers say
that Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is better,
and does not cost so much 1t causes the
patient to 'throw up the phlegm" quicker,
and gives relief in shorter time. Give this
remedy as soon as the croupy cough appears
and it will prevent the attack. 1t never fails

No CalIfor SLAUGHTER.

The country is not in need of any
slaughter of the protective system. 1t
is about time that the workers in the
mills and shops and factories of the
United States came to a point where they
can understand that it is better for them
to work and pay a trhe more for their
necessary articles. than it is to be in
total or partial idleness and be able to
procure foreign made goods at figure a
trfle below the cost of home made
articles. 1t is better to be producer
and consumer at the same time than to
be a mere consumer and not be able to
produce anything. Cheapness is not
everything. and cheapness when one has
no money with which to buy is of no
advantage. This ought to be clear TO
every man who knows enough to raise
his umbrella when it is raining-Wil-
