MONEY MARKET.-There IS relatively less in
ouirv for call than for time funds on the part OF
borrowers The demand for time money has been
chiefly on the part of borrowers who wish to tide
over the period in which the money market IS likely
to be affected by the usual Withdrawals of country
deposits in New-York. about August l. and other
demands for crop moving purposes. The tone OF
the time money market is shade tirmer, partly on
account Of the continued loss of the banks to the
Sub-Treasury and anticipation OF the preparations
for the July interest and dividend disbursement.
Money rates. as quoted follow: Money on call
opened at 3 per cent: highest, per cent; lowest

WASTE PAPER BOXES.
They Are Proving Very Useful In
Many Towns,

Recently a village improvement So
ciety in a New England town had a
number of boxes placed in the streets
for the reception of waste paper and
other rubbish of like nature. The boxes
were made of wood and painted green.
About twenty-five We're made, and they
were put at points where it was be
lieved they would be most useful.
These boxes have proved so useful
that it has been thought wise to go to
the expense of providing twenty-five
new ones made of galvanized iron in
stead Of wood. The wooden boxes,
however, are not to be split up into
kindling wood. They are to be placed
on private streets, while the metal
boxes are TO be used on the more trav-
eled thoroughfares. The latter are
strongly made and ought to last n
good while. They are oval in shape,
with a hood half covering the top. In
dimensions the new receptacles are
about the same as the old ones. They
are painted green and bear the name
of the department on both front and
back and the words For Waste
Paper" on the hood.
The society is much pleased with
the result of.the effort to educate the
people of their town in habits of clean
illness. The process must necessarily
be a slow one, but the quantity of
paper thrown into these receptacles
shows that the people ~ realizing to
a considerable extent the desirability
of not littering the streets.
The idea of waste paper boxes is
one that car be probably adopted by
any city or town which desires TO keep
the streets free from the litter of pa
per. and a few in the streets will do
much toward keeping the thorough
fares in that neal condition which
marks a well kept town.

ATTRACTIVE BACK YARDS.
Some Good Suggestions For Inexpe
rienced Gardeners.

Some Good Suggestions For Inexpe-
fence Gardeners.
The average town back yard pre-
sents a number of difficult problems to
the inexperienced gardener who as
pires to be the owner of a wine and
fig tree" Of his own. AS a rule, the
tillable portions of the plot are mar
row and are hedged by a high board
fence that on one side reaches a scOrch-
ing temperature daily in midsummer,
while on the other it is in many cases
destined to perpetual shadow. y com
mon cause of failure to produce Il
pleasing effect in the long, narrow yard
is the planting of too many hardy
shrubs and vines, says the New York
Tribune. They ill the limited space
in proportions that are unpleasing to
the eye, and the foliage seldom re-
mains attractive through the entire
season.
\. deutzia or two, which can be kept
trimmed in small clumplike bushes,
and a hardy climbing rose for the
rear end of the fence are enough for
the ordinary space. y grapevine trained
over Il trellis built above the kitchen
windows will furnish Il welcome shade
to that apartment during the summer
and provide luscious fruit for the fall.
After the frosts come the vine can be
tied back, so that it will not shut out
the winter sunlight from the kitchen,
and in the following spring it may
again be spread over the frame.
With a yard siXty-five or seventy feet
long or more it is a good plan to short
en- the grass plot enough to allow for a
large square bed at the end farthest
from the house, which viii be sur
rounded on all sides by ii walk of the
usual width. y border bed eighteen
inches or two feet wide should extend
around the three sides of the yard
mex TO the fence.
a p%rofusion of vines to hide the fence
completely will furnish a refreshing
outlook for hot weather. For the sun
III side of the yard nasturtiums. morn
ing glories of all kinds, especially the
Japanese varieties, and both the rec
and the white variety of the scarlet
runner may be used. The latter bears
a notified bean, which few people know
is delicious when cooked and far sur
passes in flavor the lima bean. On the
shady side of the yard there may be
planted clematis, which is beautiful
not only in summer, but when the
seed pods burst in the fall; both the
pink and white solanum and Madeira
vines. The Lupus permum, which bear:
beautiful crimson flowers, will thrive
In either shade or sun.

Only poor advertising is an expense.
Good advertising is always a paying
investment.
Judicious advertising is a desirable
Investment. What's the use of having
anything for sale if the fact that you
have it is not made known?
Advertising is a faithful advocate,
and to the merchant whose trade is
dull and who desires to increase his
business advertising is like Il flame in
a dark night.
If a merchant were to close his store
and suspend business every time trade
iags, he would rightly be branded as a
simpleton. And yet in what essential
would he differ from the advertiser
who stops everything for the same rea-
son?-Profitable Advertising.

Nine-tenths of the world judge from

left between the edge of the road
and the surface ditch on each side.
This strip should be cleared Of weeds
and sodded, or sowed with grass seed.
While not strictly necessary, this i'm
