whenever l see any of these propa-
gandas for beautifying city" said
Senator Perkins of California recently,
II always think Of the work done to
beautify the state OF California by Il
citizen Of Altadena, which Is hard by
Pasadena. The mans name Is Andrew
McNally, and when he came to Cali
fOrnia there were few birds at Alta
dena, and those few were hardly what
we would call beautiful. McNally
made up his mind that the land needed
birds, so he built him an aviary and
imported many hundreds of his feath-
cred friends. Once n year he would
open the doors of his aviary and let
the young birds fly whithersoever they
would, and in short time the whole
country was populated with feathered
creatures of every variety of hue and
song. His example was followed by
Joseph Grinnell and Mrs. Grinnell,
both of whom are ardent ornlthOlo-
gists, so that now the country around
Pasadena is garden spot for birds Of
beautiful plumage. Many of the birds
that were imported came from japan
and China. So you see there are more
ways than one of beautifying n city or
a state"

Soon after Sir Francis c. Burnand
lished a skit on George Augustus Sala
which cleverly burlesqued his methods
and manner. Sala was connected with
the London Illustrated News. AS he
was distinguished alike for huffiness
and for geniality, there was much talk
about how he would take the joke.
One evening Sala and Burnand met
at the Beefsteak club, and Sala, to the
mingled CONSERVATION and amusement
of the gallery, referred with indigna-
ton to the article.
"If | were younger" he said, I'D
pull the nose of any man responsible
for such an article"
A peacemaker intervened, to whom
Burnand remarked that personally he
did not think this or any matter in
journalism worth quarreling about,
but that If Sala felt SO aggrieved he
could take the matter into his own
hands.
81 will"' Sala Immediately cried. II
will"
And, springing up excitedly, he car
ried out his intentionally wringing his
own nose. first with one hand, then
with the other. Then. after murmur-
ing. II apologize" he quietly sat down.

and Burnand and that Sala had writ
ten the article himself.

a tub of beef in process Of corning was

Quietly and with great dignity, as

turned her horse when Private O'Day,
farther down and off his horse and I'M
der the shelter of II ledge. heard a
sound no man forgets after hearing 1t
once. The big black cloud. with its
tens of thousands of barrels of water,
had hit the peak of the mountain and
burst. and the jar and roar of it was
followed by the swishing and swash-
Ing OF Il torrent coming down the can
yon. The soldier had sprung for his
horse to mount and away when he
heard the clatter Of the pOny's hoofs,
and next moment the animal slipped
and fell Mt his feet and flung Its rider
over its head. O'Day saw that 1t was

tity he picked her up as she lay in an
unconscious state, placed her on the
saddle before him and made the race.

Do not forget, little wife, to pack up
goodly store of books and work, as
we'll rs your pretty trOusseau.
DO not, because 1t is just for once
IN your lives, spend more than you
ought to either OH the trip or for incl
dental expenses. Many a young couple
after the honeymoon bitterly repent
their reckless waste Of money.
Do not, even at this eventful stage
of your life, expect 'the dear boy" al
ways to be by your side. The love
which he has for you, and which has
caused You to make him ''the happiest
fellow on EARTH" will not admit of him
neglccting you, and his little atten-
tiOns to others in public must be ac-
ceptcd as mere conventionalities. Do
not forget that you have left others
behind you to whom your marriage
has been almost as great matter Of
moment as to yourself-thOse whose
happiness depends upon yours. In
spite OF this new existence. in which
two lives are as one. you should find
time to write to them.
Do not fail TO remember that In nine
cases out of ten the keynote of the
after married life is sounded during
tile Boston Traveller.

A GOOD SUGGESTION.
Chicago WOman's Plan to Keep
Streets of a Town Clean.

Chicago "Oman's Plan to Keep
Streets of n Town Clean.
At meeting recently of the Social
Economics club Of Chicago Miss Ger
trude Howe OF Hull House, who has
organized SO many clean city boys
clubs. advocated the training of chill
dren TO pick up waste paper from the
streets.
ut would be splendid thing to or
ganize boys clubs in every neighbor
hood In the city," she said. and l
would suggest that they be taught to
do these three things: TO pick up one
piece OF paper each day, never to throw
paper into the street and never to de-
stroy any growing thing"
The suggestion of Miss Howe that
children be instructed In the active
duty of picking up waste paper and
In the passive one Of refrninlng from
throwing paper into the streets Is wise,
and If acted upon will make an ap-
prccinble difference in. the city's ap-
pcarance. says the Chicago Tribune.
The picking up Of pins has always
been regarded as productive of good
luck, and II 1t were understood that
picking up papers is quite as profit
able and that 1t brings something bet
ter than luck, the consciousness of
having performed good ",;, no doubt
many children would be glad to shoul-
der this small civic responsibility.
AS matters now stand neither chill
dren nor grown people have strong
paper conscience, and the spectacle of
a schoolgirl tearing up her school notes
and casting them to the winds Is
hardly less common than that Of the
male newspaper reader dropping his
discarded Journal into some vacant lot.
"But where shall | put the papcrW
asked the young nspirant to civic hon
ors, and It must be confessed that here
Is a difficulty that has not been solved.
With the best intentions toward the
Improvement of streets and vacant
property wayfarers cannot be expected
to make walking wastcbaskots of
themselves, and to 20 about carrying
unsightly bits of newspapers under
their arms Resident districts offer no
public receptaclcs for debris, and the
domestic garbage can is not always
available If the receptaclrs were close
at hand no doubt children would be
quick to use them and to do their part
toward ridding the city of one of Its
greatest blots, Its waste paper.

To Encourage Good Architecture.

The cities of st. Petersburg and Par
is have an interesting device for en-
couraglng good architecture. Buildings
which are SO artistically constructed
that they are regarded as ornaments
of the city are exempt from taxation
for n period of years. The profession
of architect has a much higher stand
ing in Paris than in American cities.
A high standard of qualification for
the profession is enforced by the vol
untary associations which control ad-
mission to its ranks. The Paris archi-
tect signs his building In conspicuous
place on the front, as an artist does his
painting. Paris and other continental
cities could teach us much in regard to
the promotion of artistic building

sands of dollars lettering the high

says the New York Telegram. Those
bent both on pleasure and business
quickly ascertain by which routes
their travel can be made most pleasant
and most profitable, and there Is yet to
be cited an instance where regret has
been expressed after the good roads
have been laid as they should be.
Naturally there was Il great discus
sion Mt the automobile show regarding
the subject Of good roads. 1t is almost
impossible for half dozen enthusias-
tic owners of fine machines to get to-
gether without incidentally referring
to this topic. 1t Is well within the
memory of all Of us that when the
bicycle craze was n craze In fact one
could seldom find a group Of wheel
men who would not be found in con-
versation Mt almost all times regard
Ing the extension of the good roads
system.
Whenever some traditional highway
had been given Il new top dressing that
rendered 1t quite as smooth as asphalt
and even more pleasant to ride upon
scarce fortnight would elapse before

the other seeking new scenery and new

The Gentle Jollier.

II SING OF the man with unfailinR smile,
The unfailing word of good cheer;
II He shares in your joys when you're
having success:
He's round you when trouble Is near
He laughs at your crouch and he jolies
YOU so
Your worries you halfway forget
He hints at a change for the better and
says
Luck hasn't deserted you yet.
Your work is off color. your liver Is
wrong
You know it-yet when nc butts in
With little, sly jolly. somehow you
brace up
And scare up feebesome grin.
And then you feel better. You cannot ex-
plain
Just how or Just why-but you do.
You know it was only n jolly-and yet
Somehow it has comforted you.
Then here's to the good natured friend of
tho Crouch;
drink to him deep in the cup;
Long life and prosperity. happiness,
health
To the fellow that jollies us up.
