Though apparently Insignificant
nothing is more important in the home

Therefore, says Medical Talk for the
Home, when servants are employed
they should be required to wash. scale

the president is not on flying visit to
the city. Gen. Fred Grant is the living
image of his father. His coming to sue
! coed Gen. Corbin as commander of the
department of the east brings him to
that home Of his young manhood which
he knows best of all. For Gen. Grant
has been a resident of the city, OF and
on, for 80 years. It was from New York
that he was appointed minister to Aus
tria. He was for time police commits
sioner of the city, like Roosevelt, and
with equal earnestness worked for the
regeneration of the department. His
home in New York was the narrow. deep
house on Sixty-seventh street to which
the elder Grant came from Washington
for the unhappy experience in "hign
finance" in which business ignorance
and a knavish partner plunged him. The
present general will live on Governors

home; in the quiet commanders quar-
tiers where amidst the sea traffic OF all

ceptive if it were to indicate drowsiness.
The department includes Z great num-
Der Of big harbor forts; those Of New
York particularly are upon scale little
realized by people who pass them every
day unthinking. There Is plenty Of alb
sorbing work.
OF the great change made by modern
ordnance Gen. Grant will have re-
minder in 80 great cannon lying upon
dock Of the little island, almost in sight
of his house. They cost SO 100000 in
the time Of his father; now they are not
worth ten cents. Not even for old iron?
No; for some reasonwhi do not I'M
derstand, even junk dealers do not want
them. Perhaps they are too heavy 70

metal-huge rifled cannon Of the old
type-is not nowadays fashionable. The
new rifled cannon that from unobtrusiye
pits in the sand guard the port are all Of
the modern type. firing at 12-mile
range pointed projectile that would

likely to wander this way. There has
been great, though well-concealed
change in the defenses of New York
since the Spanish war Before that time

forts. Now Uncle Sam doesn't care
about company. And the work goes ON.
