a useful place for storing and dry

be placed in the tower, it could
be rung by an electrical appliance
from any central point where the
button could be placed. On the
river front the tower would form
a graceful as we'll as picturesque
object of the greatest interest,
visible every day in the year, and
at night time, too, if some means
of illumination be auop.eG The
dimensions should be not less than
one hundred and fifty feet high by
thirty feet in diameter at the
base, tapering to twenty-five at
the top. At future date the
PALISADIAN will present illus
trations of plans from competitive
sources. The tower should be
built by all means.

PICTURESQUE Tower for
PaIiSade.
PROPOSAL to Erect One on the Edge
of the Cliff Meeting. Public
Approval.

At several meetings of the Pail
SADIE fire company it has been sug-
gested that a tower be erected to
commemorate the foundation of
Palisade, and to this end a COM
mittee was appointed to look into
the matter. That such a tower
should be built appears to be the
view Of most of the residents, and
a movement is now on looking to
this end.
THE PALISADIAN presents
a picture of tower near Worces-
ter, Mass, at Lake Norembega,
which is a fine suggestion OF what
should be done here Located on
the edge of the palisade front, it
would stand for many years-cen-
turtles, perhaps-as a landmark OF
Palisadian. [volume] (Cliffside Park, N.J.) 1906-current, 1906-09-01

looking forward with interest to
spending their first winter here.
They are going to have the joys
and pleasures incident to country
life in winter and none Of the
aw-backs, if our association can
prevent. Of social life there will
be a-plenty There will be not

households, but something more.
The Social Committee will soon
be hard at work and will certainly
be heard from, as on this commit
tee, ladies, and ladies only, are to
be appointed.
The regular meetings of our or
ganization occur once a month
upon the third Thursday.
The various committeesAMil
doubtless meet at least once or
twice between the regular meet
ings. These meetings will be social

it is matter of public duty and
spirit for each resident of Palisade
to exchange pleasant greetings
with all other residents. Every
one should cooperate to this end.
Every one who may be appointed
on a committee should give much

time to forwarding the work of

parent that we are to have an as
ISOLATION through and by means
Of which the residents Of Pal1sade
will be able to accomplish many
things which will add to the al
ready many attractions OF Pal1-
SADIE and make it not only equal to
any suburban place about New
York, but possibly the most desir-
able place of all places OF resi-
dence suburban to the American
metropolis.
The plan, scope and several
purposes of the association are IN
dicated by its standing commit
tees, which are as follows:
The Social Committee, the
Membership Committee, the Com
mittee on Printing, the Committee
on Fire Houses, the Club House

Committee on Unimproved Plots,
the Committee on Street Lights,

! Committee on Telephones, the
Church Committee, the Finance
Committee. the Law Committee,
There will be work for each and
/ all of these committees. And the
work of such committees, COM
posed as they will be, of our resi-
dents whose ability and capacity
for work is known to us, must
produce results which will make
Palisade even more pleasing
E as a place of residence than it is
now.
Because of the work which has
been planned for our association
no stranger to Palisade who reads
this article should say we lack
advantages and attractions today.
The fact that about sixty families
/ are now living here and that these
sixty families have practically

chosen Palisade for their homes,
with all other New York suburban
places open to them, and have pur-
chased or erected residences Of the

 To Portugal belongs the honor of having the best equipped printing of flee in Europe. It does all the govern ment printing and also private work, and not only pays it's working ex- penses, but contributes large sum to the national treasury. After fif- teen years of service, it's employees re- ceive pension if incapacitated for labor, of one half average day, prog ressing annually with two per cent until after forty years of service when they can claim full pay. The total receipts for the year 1903 amounted to 230,000.000 reis, and the expenses to 225,000,000 reis. Switzerland has no printing plant. but spends about s150,000 a year for its public printing.

THE SLEEP CURE.
Some Advantages of New Remedy for
 Disease Pointed Out.

Progress in medicine is a prominent
 theme in the public prints. In the lit- erature of patent medicine there is
 nothing that cannot be cured in from one to six bottles.
 A very successful school of medi. cine is that which gives a man stun which it is supposed will not only do some good. hut which he can actually take. It Is a decided improvement on that old school which gave man medicine that would not cure anyway and which a man would rather die than take. There was time when medicine would not do man any good unless he made a face" on talk ing it.
 Now there has been notable change. There has arisen the school of palatability.- in which remedial confections are served. The new school furnishes therapeutics for epi- cures. Taking pills is now the same as eating chocolate creams. There are powders that are as good as pies and plasterS that will come off when you are through with them. Meli- cine has been robbed of much of it's bitterness
 But the greatest strike In painless medicine has just been made. The discovery is that some men will ne giect sanitary measures in the hope of contracting disease. and will spread contagion among their dearest friends as favor fo them.
 Sleep is no doubt a valuable rem eiy. any persons have been experi- menting with # for a long time. hut have not been using it on physi- clans prescription Some of those per sons who are addicted to the use of this restorative have such perfect nerve that they snap their fingers in the face of the office clock
 The new meii-ine Is not haul to take Every man who has to get ID and So to work in the m0rning can take it without winking With a great many men it will I-e easier to take this medicine in the rnoTuin.x before aris- ing and just about the time breakfast is put en the table Some perSons will fni difHculty In taking this medicine at night IL promises we'll th0ugh- as s mJrniBe medicine

PRINTING OFFICES
What the Several Governments Turn
 Out and What it Costs.

"The United States Government
 printing office is the finest establish
 ment of the kind in the world"
 This is the statement of Charles
 w. Pafflow, a proofreader at the gov
 ernment printing office in this city,
 based on observations he has made in
 the principal countries of Europe, in Canada, Mexico, South America, Aus tralia and Japan. The English gov ernment, he says, is slow In making changes. the jublic printer letting its
 work out to private contractors.
 Messrs Eyre & Spottiswoode being the principal ones. In 1905 the
 printing done for the English gov ernment cost over four million dol
 lars. The British colonies have their own plants and do their own
 work, Canada having given up the contract system in 1889. The Cana dian office fayors unionism outright, stipulating that no workman can en- ter unless he Is a member of the union of his trade. Since the estab- lishment of its plants. says Mir Paff- low. Canada has saved over s40.000 in it's print bill. Australia also has it's own plant.
 France has been doing its own printing since 1858, and is said to possess 2.300 different faces of type. The French claim their establish ment is the best equipped in the world. IL is said that as Pope Plus VII passed each of the i5O presses in the French printing office on a visit a hundred years ago. they print cd a paster noster in different lang uage Altogether there were used on this occasion seyenty-five Euro pean. forty-eight Asiatic and twelve African languages. The French es- tabiishment employs about i.30J com positors and its expenses for the year 1903 amounted to seven and half million francs.
 The printing office of Germany employs l.SO0 persons and has been running since 1871. The employees serve under civil service rules simi- lar 10 those in the United States. Af- ter ten years Of service the employees receive. 1T invalided. a regular pen sion. Tn 1904. $500 marks was for running the Ger man plant. of which 2.225.00 was for labor. It operates it's own type foundry. turning out 50.00O pounds of type annually. The government printing office of Austria was estab- lished in 1894. burned in 1884 and a seven story structure erected in 1891 in its place. It cost two million for ems and employs 1.sOO persons. In general appearance il greatly resem- hIes the printing office in Washing ton The employees of the Austrian office are also pensioned and receive sick benefits the same as the Ger mans. Russia has a printing of1ee in St Petersburg doing both government and private printing. employing shoat 500 people and running at an

THE LITTLE MINISTER. !"

What should be the most popular presentation made by the Poli Stock company this summer will be "The Little Minister" which is set down for production next week. The play as everyone knows is the same in which Maude Adams made her first great success and was built from the delightful Scotch novel of the same
 name by James M. Barrie, who in a few short years has equaled his repu- tation as a dramatist with that of a novelist. Miss Adams was consid- cred g young actress of great possi- bllities when she was featured with John Drew in Rosemary" but the realization of them was not made possible until Charles Frohman launched her as a star in the Barrie play. From the opening night the piece was phenomenal success and its reception in New York was most remarkable one. The book had all
 ready achieved wide popularity, and that coupled with Miss Adams's win someness and simplicity of manner was responsible for run as great in a financial way as that of Ben Hur.' Season after season 1t has been used without any diminution of public interest and whenever the new plays selected for the use of Miss Adams fail either artistically or from monetary standpoint The Little Minister is revived and it's triumph ant career resumed. Two seasons ago it was played at Polls to one of the biggest houses in the history of the theater, and it is expected to prove as great house filler at the Jacques. The production will be made with a scrupulous regard for ! the character of the play and the yer sion will be the same as that used by Miss Adams. The piece is in four acts and eight scenes and gives an unusual chance for scenic effective ness, an opportunity that will be taken advantage of by Stage Man ager Fitzgerald. Helene Warde will be seen as Lady Babbie, Richard Cor don as Gavin Dishart, the little min ister: Jere Sanford as Thamas Wha- mond. Jack Kennedy as Rob Dow, and Edith Crolius as Mamie Web ster. Prices are 10, 20 and 30 cents, afternoons 10 and 20 cents, ladies | 10. Souvenirs Friday afternoon.

DOES YOUR BACK ACHE?

That troublesome pain in the small of the back points straight to kidney sickness. Backache will not leave of its own accord, nor will sick Kidneys cure themselves. Every day of neg lect makes the cure harder.
 Inactive kidneys cause rheumatism. neuralgia. gout. headaches, dizzy spells, nausea. indigestion. weak heart, gravel, stone in the kidneys, dropsy and too frequent passages of urine.
 When you first feel pain In the small Of the back. or first notice anything wrong with the urine. don't delay a moment. Give the Kidneys the help they need.
 Doan's Kidney Pills have quick and direct action on the kidneys. They drive out the poisons that infest the blood, cleanse and stimulate the kid neys. regulate the urine. cure hack ache. dizziness and languor, and per manently heal the kidneys.
