them Is very limited in amount, and
the gang has been kept very busy
lately shaping up streets in the upper
part Of the city, that grew impossible
during the winter season. The result
has been the neglect of the spring
cleaning of the cutters and streets in
the lower part of the city which work
is now also very urgent.
Another circumstance that perhaps
goes farther than any other thing to
give us disorderly and dirty streets
is the seeming Indifference of indivd-

AN OLD LEGEND.
The Ancient story Of Lilith, Ada me
First HeIpmeet.

The old Talmudists had queer leg
end concerning the first pair created
by the Almighty According to the
story, Llllth was Adams original help
meet and Eve was the after considera-
ton. The Talmud says that Lllith was
created just as Adam was--out Of the
dust OF the earth. Soon after the
breath OF life had been breathed into
her ears you will remember that the
Bible says 'nostrils" In Adams case)
her entire nature changed To such an
extent that she became yerltable de-
mon. About this time the devil came
along and. recognizing In Adams wife
all that was necessary TO make a first
class governess of the Internal regions,
persuaded her to quit the first man and
go with him into the upper regions Of
the air." To us this seems like queer
place for the location of hell. but that
IL the direction the pair is said to have
taken when they left Adam as the sole
occupant OF the garden. At home with
the king Of the sulphurous domain, she
became the mother Of devils and then
deserted Pluto and became ''specter
OF darkness"
After this transformation her sole de-
light appears to have been In the de-
struction Of innocent babes. Ii Is even
said that our word LULLABY" IL a cor
ruption OF the oriental term, ''lilla ab.,"
which means "avaunt," or "begone,
