PvbIic Spirited Citizens Bufldfng uD
 an Illinois Town.
 Clarinda, Ia., is homeiike town. oc. eupying a beautiful situation surround" ed by rolling prairie, with shaded streets 16O feet wide. well kept lawns. comfortable but unpretentious houses. an imposing courthouse and school house. an excellent hotel. several banks whose combined deposits exceed $1.- 100000. and blocks of stores whose shelves are loaded with all kinds of goods. writes W. F. Curtis in the Chi cago Record Herald. When Clarinda was first founded in 1852 this was a bare prairie. Now it is a veritabie grove of elms. chestnuts and naples. all of which have been planted by the hand of man. but they look like native trees.
 A square near the railway station was planted with several hundred young eims a few years ago. which are thriving beautifully and are an object lesson to all other Iowa towns. as they illustrate what can be done in this soil l and climate in the way of arbor cul- | ture. Aiuost everybody owns the house he occupies. and property very seldom changes hands There are no advertisements of houses for rent, be- | cause every one is occupied, and new ! corners are obliged to build. so the town is gradually extending in every direction.
 There are no saloons in Clarinda and no permit to sell liquor has been issued since 1SS2. The drug stores are not even permitted to sell upon physi clans prescriptions When saloons were allowed there was a license fec of S1.O00 aud the proceeds were all needed to pay police expenses but since safoons were abolished no polio have been needed. and the only pro lection the town now has are two night watchmen. who look out for fires. bur glars and tramps.
 The taste aud culture of the people arr illustrated by the large attendance al the annual Cha autauqua assembly. now in it's seventh year. upon the faii grounds. which belong to the municf pality. Back of the assembly ars eighty business men, public spirited citizens. representing all denomina tons. who have pianaged the affair st successfully that at the close of th' last session after every bill was pait and extensive improvements wer' made there was a surplus of $2,20O il the treasury.

What an Improvement Society 1s
 Doing For Hamilton, Ont.
 Hamilton, Ont, is being made more forts of tse Civic Improvement soc:e ty. which awards prizes for the best Kept lawns, flower boxes and gardens. says the Toronto Mail and Express. The idea Is 80 excellent that it is re- markable that it has not been more generally adopted.
 The natural tendency of an centers of population is toward ugliness and untidineN To resist this and aspire toward the town beautiful" is wor. thy effort We are influenced more than we are generally willing to ac, knowledge by our surroundings. The power of beauty to cheer and purify human nature is immeasurable. Why, then, should ali the natural beauty of a city be confined to ifs parks or Its bou- towards. which are visited only on rare and exceptional occasions?
 Here and there. it is true, efforts are made to beautify the daily surround tngs. h Toronto some of the modern factories are adorned with flowers and rfinging ivy. For this and the conse. 0uent appearance of cheerfulness the public, we believe, is sincerely grate- ful It is . contribution to the comfort Of every sse. The splendid lawns and the garless of our residential quarters also appeal to public appreciation.
 But there are districts of the city in which the sun of beauty seldom shines Prominent among these are the bust ness quarters, where the tiresome mo notony of brick walls is rarely relieved ny the presence of any green thing. II b here that the people spend most of their time. and here 1t is thaS beauty and freshness are most required Tn the more humble quarters, too. though there Is many a homely garden and many an effort to catch an inspiration from naturt;. the lack of beauty is of ten painful and depressing

A JUMBO PUMP.
Can Deliver Two and Half Millions
 Gallons Per Hour.

The largest suction pump in the world is one included in the equip ment of the Calumet & Hecla copper mining company, of Michigan. With out being crowded to the limit of its capacity, this pump can deliver g.. 300, 900 gallons of water every hour in the 24. Moreover it will do the work without making as much noise as is made by the operation of the old fashioned sewing machine. Outside the ooors of the great building which houses it no sound is heard from within, and, standing beside the mon. 5ter upon the brink of the pit con. nected with the lake from which the water is taken, almost the only sound is the noise of the suction, as with every stroke more than 900 gal Ions are lifted.
 It is a ripple expansion pumping en zine, with a capacity of 65,000, COG gallons daily, standing nearly 50 feet in height and requiring 800 horse. power for it's operation. It has been proven by actual test that the normal capacity can be easily maintained for an definite time without injury or strain. and that, pushed to it's full ca pacity, the pump can handle approx imately 75,000,000 gallons in 24 con secutive hours.
