New York city has had state authority to
condemn certain areas In the state under

The Real Benefit of a Vacation.

From the New York Herald.
The interview with DR.. Collins in the Her.
aid of Yesterday contains some interesting
suggestions regarding the way vacations
should be spent. The great question is
how to obtain proper rest. The British
prime minister answered 1t in his own way
by simply eschewing his usual work There
Is q great deal in the thought and act of
dropping the harness and simply brows-
ing. Leisure means elaboration. The
strain of hurry Is. after all, at the bottom
of most of our tire. The strenuous life of
the American Is the object lesson for all
who wear out early. In spite of the fact,
however, the average man and boy carry
the same vim into their play. The weak
schoolboy will start on an exhausting
tramp, enter tennis lists without training
play foot ball, run long races, row long
n.e tches and in the end return to his work
more exhausted by far than If he had re-
NAMED at home.
The learned specialist in his advice to In
tellectual workers strikes at the root of
the matter when he advocates plenty of
Sleep 1t Is natures sweet restorer," that
as surely relieves tension as loosening the
string of the spent bow. But the average
man has such a fear of being considered
lazy, apathetic or Indifferent that he must
needs even in his recreation be always up
and doing. Recreation also in its wider
sense implies change of routine, alteration
OF habits, diversion of purpose. The tired
plodder must virtually transplant himself In
new environment and offset the stress Of
business with relaxation and Incidence.
Nature teaches US this principle in all
her compensations for tire. The earth 1T
self rolls leisurely on it's axis and has never
been known to be ahead of time. Even
machines appear to suffer from long con-
tinued use. Their boilers must be cooled at
times to allow of the readjustment of their
component atoms, and razors become dull
for want of rest. The hurry and strain of
the thing is what upsets all our good inten-
lions. Thus moderation pays in every
sense. Why not apply the rule to our play
as we'll as to our work?

for preventing waste of water and increas-
Ing the supply. and 1t was on the report of

Chicago has much trouble with its water

the admoHiton, Boil the water and kill

ST. Louis takes its water from the Missis-

against this, but she has grievance in
that the Chicago drainage canal discharges

Philadelphia is seeking to filter the
Schuylkill water, which, as it comes from
the spiggot in it's raw state, is more a solid
than liquid.
