Obituary.

Ruth Viola Cummings was born
March 8, 1896, died May 8, 1907, aged
IL years, month and 27 days. Ruth
was baby of years, carrying the in
nocency of babyhood through the
eleven years through her brief earth.
life, subject to limitations of vocal
powers and the embarrassment Incl.
dent to such deprivation. She was
possessed of rich soul nature, which
expressed itself In an affectionate,
loving spirit. Her love for those she
knew to love was very strong. She
was kindly appreciative of any service
of love wrought for her. Her teacher
of the past year speaks of her as pos
sessing remarkable powers and max
ing rapid progress In her studies and
greatly endeariug herself to her
associates.
She has known earth and home life
just long enough for US to know how
much she was to US, and now 1t Is hers
to know the better life where there is
no humiliation and where all of her
wers shall unfold In all the fullness
of those possibilities in the presence
of Him in whose presence is fullness
of JOY and at whose right hand there
are pleasures evermore. Her illness
was brief, being brought home from
the school in Colum bus to share in
the love of father, mother and two
sisters.
Just before her death she seemed
to rally all her strength, and calling
for her plavthings amused herself for
a short time, then turning to the
family as If in personal recognition
of each one with a smile she laid her
self down and sweetly slept the sleep
of death to awaken in the endless day
of life eternal.

The question of oiling our streets,
especially in the business part of town
is one that is worthy of careful con.
sideration. BY oiling there is posi-
lively no dust, doing away with the
expense of sprinkling which does not
allay the dust. 1t is said that oiled
street show practically no wear even
with the hardest usage. It is claimed
that the expense of oiling is very
small, but little more each year than
Is paid for street sprinkling. As soon
as council put the streets in 6rst-class
shape with the new road roller it
might be advisable to give the oiling
proposition trial upon few squares.

AERIAL NAVIGATION.
Horace WaIpoIe's Prophecy That May
Yet Be Fulfilled.

Horace Walpole's Prophecy That May
Yet Be Fulfilled.
In the year 1884 the problem of hu-
man flight was occupying a prominent
place in the public mind, as 1t Is
today. The Frenchman Jean Pierre
Blanchard had Just made his first as
cent from Paris in balloon filled with
hydrogen. He took with him wings
and rudder, apparently proposing to
fly, but found them useless. Later
Blanchard crossed the channel In his
aerial machine. Horace Walpole COM
ments ON the doings Of the "airgo-
nauts," as he calls them. "You see,"
he writes, ''the airgonauts have passed
the Rubicon. BY their own account
they were exactly birds. They flew
through the air, perched on the top of
tree; some passengers climbed up
and took them in their nest" After
seeing balloon descending Walpole
amuses himself by medltating on the
future of what he calls "alrgonation."
He sees the art of flying perfected and
deposing that Of navigation. Flourish,
Ing seaports become deserted vii
lages," while Salisbury plain, Newman
ket heath and the downs become dock
yards for aerial vessels. Public roads,
becoming useless, are broken up and
thus make great increase In the area
available for tillage. ,,alpole's proph-
ecles may yet be fulfilled. - London
