Rescue Of the Forests.
From the Chicago Tribune.

The time when the natural forests OF
America were believed to be inexhaustible
has passed. The government of the United
States has established forest reserves in
different parts of the Union and some of
the states have established state reserves
Now the men who have been responsible be-
yond all others for the destruction of the
forests are taking tardy steps to atone in
some measure for their error. The Lum-
bermens Association has voted to give a
large sum of money for a school of forestry
at Yale University. If the individual MEM
bers of the association will go farther and
promise to follow the advice of the experts
as to the cutting of trees and the replant-
ing of the forests the mischief hitherto done
in ignorance will be forgiven them.

Marathon race. the crowning event of the
meet Since his return he has been feted
and showered with rewards. Various gifts
of money have been made to him. aggre-
eating nearly $500 A house has. been
bought by admirers and presented to him.
And. to make the matter of national appro-
bation complete. the Dominion government

a salary of $3.50 year. 1t certainly pays
to succeed in anything that is undertaken.

Hats OFF to Edward p. Weston. the grand
old man of athletics! This youngster Of
sixty-eight yesterday not only walked in
one day from Philadelphia to New York
but he beat his own record for the feat
made in 1853. 1t was an achievement of
which any man might well be proud. what
ever his years. To go ninety-six miles in
twenty-three hours and tweIity-six min
utes, any kind OF road, is something
of feat for experts only to try But to
go that distance in that time in heat and
dust, and at the age of sixty-eight. is an
accomplishment which may well cause the
"superannuated'' to take heart and the
mere youths of fifty to think of training.
Weston stands as a splendid example Of
the benefits OF systematic work with the
muscles, attention to the diet and careful
observance of all the laws OF health. What
he did in the line OF his profession as a
walker other men might do In some de-
gree as a means to the end Of long life
and good health. This man kept in the
open air and worked all his muscles to
bring them into perfect control. In his
many long distance walks across country
he became better acquainted with nature
than the great majority Of men. He
breathed only fresh air. He kept young
in spirit a

Cleanliness as a Habit.
From the Boston Advertiser.

from tne Boston Advertiser
Chicago. In the earnestness of her attempt
" clean up the city (as to its physical as
pecD, is forming the children of the city
into an army of cleanliness with a set OF
four simple rules, telling them to pick up
at least one piece of paper each day to
slick up around home, to do missionary
work on the neighbors' children and to keep
more or less clean as to hands and face. In
this way. the optimists of Chicago hope to
plant the seed of civic cleanliness They
will nurse the budding plant Qf it ever
buds) and try to develop a vigorous shrub
which shall sweep the tares of untiGiness be-
fore it, so that in the next generation the
man with the muck rake will pass Chicago
by hurriedly and hopelessly. The primary
idea is a good one; there is no doubt that
the physical aspect of Chicago can be i'm
proved and that the children can do a deal
in helping along the Improvement 1t is
not a new idea; other cities have tried these
'childrens brigades" with satisfactory re-
suits.

evanescent manners and ephemeraI ideas
but the primal truths and basic realities
were bodied forth upon the stage In shapes
of beauty or of terror. Like them, he pointed
no particular moral, but by poignant OF ap-

~syIrnerlig varma uttryckte sin glade
0fver hans ankomst och forklarade,
att hon efter ALT, hvad professor
Wallroth sagt ON DIR Mohr, maste
betrakta Diet som en- riktig lycka for

informator for gossen, slog den lila,
trinda frun, ON hvilken man ganSka
godt kunde saga att hon var i sina

tog plats i en- f8t0lj midi emot henne,
och Ottilia beredde sig att lcmna

Ack, will nj int vara sa god att

pade dr. Mohr elakt efter henne, -
jag faster den st0rsta vigt vid ert

Da fru Won Stehling instamde,
stannade Ottilia qvar.

fortfor Berthold. i Diet han vande sig
till vardinnan. vi arc ocksa sd der

fr0ken Ottilia pastar att jag annu
f6refaller alltf0r blyg och f0rsagd;
naja, jag ar ju inte fackman och har
annu for litet ruth, men jag tror nog
att jag smart skall finna mig till rata.
All, det tvifar jag int pa
skyndade fru Won Stehling sig att in
tlicka, - professor Wallroth val sa
vanlig att meddela oss era vilkor.
Delta var ju ytterst charmant af
professor, men Berthold skulle bara
sjelf gerna ha velat veta sina vilkor.
Han bekymrade sig dock Ell mycket
ON saken. Han visste att hans be-
romde gynnare utmarkte sig genom
EFT suverant forakt for - andras
pengar, och att han, mar Diet kom
derh&n att vilkoren skulle uppstallas,
Ell var den man som visade nagon
enfaldig blyghet.
- Naturligtvis, - fortfor fru Won
Stehling, - ha min man och jag ge-
mast med MOLE gait in pa vilkoren,
och nu handlar Diet blot ON att afven

Jag har jul fattat mitt beslut -
svarade Berthold, och g0r blot

Jag maste bli 0fvertygad ON, inte
