much needed improvements have been
made along certain lines for which
we are all proud.
Mr.. Raglan, secretary of the Calvary
Cemetery Association informs me
that they have decided to expend $50.
90 in an experimental flower garden
as an object lesson to teach the people
what varieties it is safe to plant.
They also intend to set out some orna-
mental evergreens as foundation for
a hedge. This is move in the right
direction and in order to carry out the
plan and make it a success, and have
the plants grow thrifty and luxuri-
antly, it will be necessary to have a
permanent and inexhaustible supply
of water. The most practicable and
feasible plan that l can see is for the
city to extend the water works from
the Green Bay & Western depot to
the cemetery. A two inch pipe would
be ample to serve both yards. This
would also provide supply of health
full and wholesome drinking water.
The pipe need not be laid deep in the
ground as there would be no demand
for the water only during the grow
ing season. Late in the fall the water
could be shut off and the pipes
drained. / think the city ought to
do as much as this to show their
good will and encourage these faith.

in making this statement. Countless
numbers of dangerous bacterial from

the dense foliage, and there is a
possible chance for them to remain

If there is any member of our kim
dred benevolent organization who has
friends that have gone to their last
rest and are buried in our cemeteries
who feel that they would like to lend
a helping hand by giving work or
money in beau tifying this sacred home
of the departed, l will assure them it
will help wonderfully in transforming
this ugly looking spot into one of
celestial beauty and make a paradise
on earth, where it will be a pleasure
to take our friends and spend quiet
hour in silent communion over the
last resting place of those that have
gone on before. And we too in
short time will be numbered among
the countless hosts that have crossed
the dividing line that separates the
dead from the living.

tions, with the amount of limited

NEED HELP
City Would do Well to Act
Upon the Advice by Our
Correspondent and Extend
the Water Main to the
Cemetery.
By A. s. Robinson.

/ have been requested to write an
article for publication on this much
neglected subject, our cemeteries.
This one thing | consider of vast
public Importance: one where every
citizen, whether Protestant or Catho-
lie, has a deep individual interest at
stake: and one that cannot be neg
lected without working a serious in
jury to himself or his neighbor. |
consider the intelligent care of our
cemetery of as much Importance and
value to the residents of any city, as
public park: and should receive as
much financial assistance and aid from
our municipal authorities. Parks are
all right, and | believe are public
necessity to better the moral condi-
| ton OF any community. Men and
women who work in factories six days
I in week, breathing many times the
impure, dust-laden air over and over
again, we need some place where they
can go and spend quiet hour, drink
ing in the warm sunshine and the
free, pure, wholesome air, the very
elixir Of life that nature has so gener-
ously, so bountifully supplied as health
reStOrer.
But the aid to our cemeteries should
come first: and it should be an annual
appropriation of some liberal amount
and then what we can solicit by in
dividual donations, would in a short
time change this unsightly condition
to one of harmony and beauty, and
can be made just as attractive to the
average pleasure seeker. and give as
much social enjoyment as can be
found anywhere.
But in order to get the best and
most satisfactory returns for the
money invested and labor performed,
we must have a well and carefully
drawn plan as guide for the future;
and every dollar spent shall be a step
in the right direction in completing
and carrying out the original design.

successful business until they sold
out and retired from business in the

Stevens Point, where they resided

This union was blessed with nine
children, Eight girls and one boy, -

and exempt as well as the taxes, for
it certainly is public necessity
Children frequently come into the
yard and becoming thirsty, drink of
the water from the wells, because
they know no better | am not sure
but it would be best to have these
wells filled up as soon as we can pro-
cure water from some other reliable
source.
We know we are under the SEN
tence of death, and when this judg-
ment will be executed no living mortal
can tell. Then as rational human
beings it is wise for US to prepare our
last resting place where we know we
must eventually sleep as our future
home with wisdom intelligence and
care.

The Best Way to Save

After number of years study of the question, OBJ
serving the experience OF hundreds of saving de-
positors, we have decided that the BEST way to
save money is to deposit in the savings bank
part of your income every time any money
a check is received. For example, person receiv-
ing $40 on pay day would deposit say 81 before
any of the money is used. After this is kept up
few months the expenses are adjusted to an in
of $36 just the as though that was
all you received.
Unless plan of this kind is followed the whole
income is likely to be spent no matter what its
size.
Space will not permit more extended explana-
ton call and talk with us about it.

Deafness Cannot be Cured.

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear. There
is only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when ii is entirely closed, deafness is the
result, and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by
catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed
condition of the mucous surfaces

case of deafness Caused by catarrh) that

such a period of time. Early in life

what can be accomplished during a

it will be allowed to US. Those who
have lived and been married for a

complished, they marvel at their own
accomplishments.
