CLEAN TOWNS GROW.

Unc1ean Conditions Bar to Conn.
 munity's Progress.
 At meeting recently of the local Council of Women of New Orleans Professor billiard of that city delivered an address on town improvement that will be of interest to other communi- ties. He said that there was no royal road to securing clean city, but where there was will there was a way, and If the people of New Orleans determin- ed upon having clean city they could get it.
 He said the unciean condition of a town was a real bar to its progress; that visitors coming to an untidy town were bound to receive an unfavorable Impression, which all the hospitality and courtesy could not entirely erase. They judged people by what they saw, and they could not be blamed for doing so Conditions, Professor billiard said, affected character. A child raised in slovenly surroundings would naturally acquire sIoven1y personal habits.
 In discussing the subject of clean city Professor billiard said he would begin with the back yards If they were cleaned up, he thought, the sentt- ment would extend to the sidewalks and streets. He suggested that recep- tacles be placed in the yards for the collection of the inevitable trash and that housekeepers sQe to it that their children and servants put the trash in them and not scatter it in the yard.
 The strips of grass which when al- lowed to grow up to any height on the edge of the sidewalks and streets de Gace the city would be cut if the gen eral complaint was made against it. There was a law in the statute books which compelled property owners to keep the grass cut around their prem lses. This law applied to owners of vacant lots as well, though it didn't seem to be so understood.
 Professor billiard suggested that resi- dents of certain netghborhood might unite to form sort of adjunct police force to see that violations of the law, In their vicinity at least, were reported to the proper authorities.
 In the business streets, Professor billiard said, the worst enemy seemed to be paper. This was paper age, he said, and any quantity of it could be found about the streets. More re- ceptacles were needed for papers on the street, and as soon as people be- gan to realize that need it would be supplied
 He said the prosperity of town de- pended largely upon a neat appear ance, good laws and their enforcement and back of these pronounced public @ent1menk

DO THEIR OWN COOKING.
There Is an Increasing Demand foa Attractive Appliances f0R
 the Kitchen.

Very attractive and handy app1i. ances are now brought out for the amateur cook. They are of bronze. copper and silver plate, and each may be mounted on it's own spirit lamp o1 electrical fitting, says the Chicago h. 3 ter Ocean.
 Epicureanism is on the increase. and many more people are particular as to the preparation of their food than formerly" said a household goods dealer. ssFastidious people who buy the best the markets afford in food supplies have awakened to the fact that much of their care in this re- gard is wasted if the cooking be un- fnteHigently done, so we are selling more and more of these individual cooking appliances.
 Many settled people, particularly, amuse themselves by amateur cook ing. The health culture propaganda has also been a stimulus to the ama- teur cook. Food eaten under proper conditions will obviate the need of medicines or curatives and add to physical exhilaradon, good looks, etc. These theories are getting strongly impressed on the public mind, and par ticularly on those folks who are able to indulge themselves, to experiment in the matter and make permanent progress.
 They secure food supplies of the best grade and then seek for appli- ances by which they can supervise the cooking with least inconvenience, and so get the full profit of the invest ment. The cooking schools have tend ed also to make people recognize the value of dehcate cookery applied to good grade of food. Slowly but surely their maxims are being exemplffied."

 By his failure to sfatter Thomas line Bragg lost his hold on Cha tfanooga, the gateway to Tennessee and Georgia. His army had always been match for that of his opponent, but for the recov- cry of Chattanooga he was re-enforced by 10000 fresh troops, 15,000 being vet erans from Lees camps in Virginia.
 LongsHeet was the Confederate hero of Chiekamauga. He repeated there his master stroke of Gettysburg with about the same result At Gettysburg he smashed the Federal left wing un- der Sickles and rushed his bayonets through the winding gorge of DevP 8 Den and on up the slopes of Round Top to its rock crowned crest. With an- other brigade and a few cannon he would have driven the Army of the Po- tomac from Cemetery ridge At Chick amauga he routed the Federal right wing, then dashed his line to pieces against another Round Top-not,a ram- part of stone this time, but rampant of men, buttressed by Thomas, the in. vincible.

Sums Chemical Rays.

The actinic, or chemical, 7 rays of the sun, are the blue, violet and ultra violet rays, and are the only ones in the cure Of diseases, the other rays having no physiological action on animal life. The value of these rays in destroying the bacteria of disease was first shown by Filson, of Denmark, who applied them very successfully to the treat ment of lupus, tuberculosis of the skin. It's use has not been made eff fective in cancer, because the rays do not penetrate deeply enough.

Another strange freak in the
weather was noticed last week.
Christmas ushered in a cold wave
over the eastern half of this
country. In New England it
was bowling blizzard OF snow,
In the middle west it was cold
and wind. Right here at Miller
seemed to be about the western
edge OF the wave. st. Paul re-
ports 16 below, Winnipeg 80 be.
low, while eastern Kansas and
Oklahoma had 5 below zero. At
Miller, many miles north, the
thermometer went about 6 or Z
below at night, for q short time.
then quickly rose to 80 above.
while thecold wave passed on to
the east, SO that it was consid-
erably colder in states several
hundred miles south OF us than
it was in South Dakota.
