The Provincial New Yorker.

Adding millions to it's population
and stories to it's skyscrapers every
decade intensifies rather than de-.
creases, the provincialism Of New
York City. No new point of vantage
is gained for the better observation
of what the 100000 other people of
the nation are doing. To the New
Yorker the universe is bounded on
the south by the Sandy Hook light
ship, on the north oy the Harlem, On
the east by Jamaica bay and on the
west by Hoboken. A few stars are
thrown in overhead and stories are
told of people who inhabit the places
where this little world sloughs on
beyond the horizon. In the nerrow
confines of New York City lack OF
knowledge as to the remainder OF
the nation constitutes no drawback
and extreme provincialism is vir-
tue.-Detroit Free Press.

The horned oxen, mute with awe,
Peeped from out their stalls and saw

Does some one whisper "Calvary?")

HELPFUL SUGGESTIONS.

To clean white paint, take small
quantity of whiting on a damp piece
OF old flannel and rub over the surface
lightly. 1t will leave the paint re.
markably bright and new.
Keep the roots of the celery plant
dry, crate them and mix the powder
with one-third as much salt. Keep the
bottle well corked. This is delicious
in soups, grayies. basnes, etc.
To clean panama hat, rub with a
cloth dipped in peroxide, repeating
the operation several times, or cut a
lemon In half and dip in sulphur and
rub the hat with 1t. Let dry ard re-
peat II until desired shade is reached.
To mend broken china, powder a
small quantity Of lime and take the
white Of one egg and mix together to
paste. Apply quickly to tne china

together and they will soon become
set and strong. seldom breaking In

CHRISTMAS CAROL.
Hosanna, Hosanna

Hosanna. Hosanna!
Ye nations hear the story
Today We are redeemed.
Made heirs with Christ in glory!
Bring out the silent harps
And tune them all anew,
Then sing till angels stand
amazed
A Saviours born to you.
Hosanna, Hosanna.
Twas shepherds told the story
The star had led the way
To a manger filled with glory.
Ring out, We Christmas bells!
Deaths power hath passed away,
And heaven rings with this glad
theme
Man is redeemed today.
Hosanna Hosanna!
Let heaven and earth repeat
Join seraphim and cherub
In homage at his feet.
Let song of saving grace,
With angels anthem vie,
For unto God the sweetest sound
Is redeemed ones cry.
Bring roses, sweet roses!
For unto you is given
A ransom from the grave,
A passport into heaven
Swing wide, we pearly gates,
Let anthems have full sway.
The King of Glory left his throne
Upon that Christmas day.

refutation of all charges made is in

RURAL ROUTES IMPROVE ROADS.

postmaster General Cortelyou has
issued another good roads proclama-
tion apropos of the extension of rural
free delivery. The postmaster gen.
erals statement says in part:
The maintenance of good roads
| unrestricted by gates, with no I'M
Drldged creeks or streams not ford
able at all ordinary seasons of the
year, is condition precedent to the
establishment and continuance of rur
raj delivery service. When the rural
agent or postmaster reports that
the roads traversed by rural carriers
are impossible, or in bad condition.
the matter is taken up by the depart
ment, through the postmaster, with
the local road authorities, and due no.
tice is given that unless the condition
OF the roads is improved it will be
necessary to take steps looking to
withdrawal of the service in that To-
cality.
This polcy has resulted in the ex-
penditure of thousands of dollars
throughout the country in the con
struction of bridges and the improve
ment of highways.
The maintenance of good roads as
required by the postoffice department.
necessarily does not involve and rad
ical change in the system of grading
that will keep the roads smooth and
properly drained. The Importance
OF systematic effort with view to
keeping the roads in good condition
Is illustrated by the experience of the
department during the last six weeks.
when 1T has been necessary to suspend
service in some localities, the con-
dition OF the roaos being such as to
make 1t impossible for the carriers to
traverse their routes.
This naturally results in complaint
which frequently comes from people
who are themselves responsible for
the condition of The roads, while in
some respects the last seasons has
been unusual, in that the weather
conditions have been such as to make
the roads unusually muddy. still If
the system of working the roads was
conducted along more intelligent
lines, it is believed the existence of
the conditions referred to would not.
be possible.
1T Is necessary respectfully to call
to the attention of the road autbor,.
ties in given localities, the require
ments OF the department in this re-
spect.

benefits of good roads are appreciated
by the business men. commercial
clubs and other similar organizations
