Plea For the Wooden Shoe.

1--WE have wisely taken to wearing
sandals" says physician in the Phil
adelphia Record. II hope that before
long we will learn the advantage of
the wooden shoe, OF sabot. Do you
know that a great many diseases are
due TO leather shoes-due to the wear
ing all day long of tight leather that is
often, in bad weather, water soaked
And do you know that by the wearing
Of wooden shoes, which keep the feet
dry and which do not draw all those
diseases might be avoided? I have
several pairs Of sabots. and SO have
my wife and children. They cost about
thirty cents pair. and keep the feet
dry. without eramping them or making
them unhealthily tender. l believe
that the wisest thing Americans could
do would be to take up the sandal and
the sabot, discarding altogether the
shoe of leather"

Oh, pumpkin pic!
Athwart thy face
An hundred fances may l trace!
| see the CLINT of summer sun,
And twilight, when the day is done;
The sober peace of musing cows
Who IN the meadow grasses browse;
The radiant glory of the morn
That sweeps across the nodding corn,
A thousand happy fancies start
When thod art nesting near my heart!
Oh, pumpkin pie. q
| hear the breeze 60
That whispered in the maple trees;
] see the swaying fields of wheat,
And hear the birdsongs. clear and sweet
And low across the land at night
! catch that ballad of delight
The chant the cricket sings in glee,
And summer comes again to me!
Oh, pumpkin pie Thus dost thou cast
Thou joyous glamour DER the past!
Oh, pumpkin pie!
Within thy breast
These giadsome summer fancies rest;
The golden sunshine and the dew
Have paid their tribute through and
through;
The song the lark trilled in the air
Within thy form is echoed there;
And all these things of JOY to me
Were caught and firmly held by thee
Oh, pumpkin, Thanks for all thou didst!
l welcome thee unto my midst.

Ono Western City THINKS So and Puts IL,

NOeG lh thC Aux bUUSCts
The city of Santa Rosa. Cal. has
been supplying its 1000 nhabitants
with water free for the last five years
and charging the cost in the tax
budget. J W Keegan, one of its Coun.
cilmen. is anxious that other cities
should follow Santa Rosa's example,
and he gives these reasons for declar-
ing 1t to be the only equitable system
Of supply:
!. 1T is more economical because the
cost of accounting and collecting Is
abolished; it saves to the consumer the
annoyance Of the rate collectors call
ing; 1t tssa strong incentive to beautifi-
cation Of the city, for householdcrs no
longer grudge water for lawns and
gardens; it is not wasteful, because the
consumer never believes that his pay
ment is fixed by his consumption, and
1t benefits the YER, poor and by encour-
aging them to be cleanly keeps the
community free from disease.
''The only man who may be injured"
says the Councilman, lis one who pays
taxes on personal property. and he is
no more injured than by a free sewer
