A Ditch is a Stream.

Judge Clyde, of Charles City, Ia,
has handed down decision which he
took under advisement at the March
term in what is known as the Honey
field ditch case. Honeyfield filled up
a ditch that went through his farm
and which had been in existence some
fifty years. Honeyheld is compelled
to open the ditch within sixty days,
and is perpetually enjoined from fill
ing it in again. The ditch was put in
to drain some land on the other side
of Honeyfield's farm, mile or so
north of the city. The decision is in
effect that ditch when legally put in
stands and is the same as any other
stream of water.--Country Gentle

The remarkable spread of moral
reform is evidenced in all parts of
the world now. One of the latest
and strongest indications is a law
restricting race track gambling in
Belgium. Brussels. the capital of
belgium. has for more than a cen
fury borne with pride the suggestive
sobriquet Little Paris" and it in
many respects resembles the gay
French metropolis. The language of
the upper class, the prevailing lam
guage, it might be said. is French,
and Paris may be reached by few
hours ride in railroad coach. AS
an imitator of Paris and reflector of
its spirit, modes and customs, Brus-
sells has never displayed any propen-
sity to Puritanism, and it was not
expected that this manner of reform
would be Witnessed there. And Bel
GUM is ruled by King Leopold, one of

A we'll known student of tuber-
culosis speaking to an association in
a Western city organized for the pur-
pose of promoting public Fairgrounds
said that that enterprise would prove
to be the greatest preventive of con-
sumption that could possibly be in
st4tuted. ''Open air exercise for
growing children is the finest health
promoter" he thought that parents
could afford, and he sustained his
statement by copious citations from
health records. In view of the many
benefits that are known to attach to
such provision for the care and
amusement of children, it is strange
that indifference has kept our urban
communities so long backward in
providing public Fairgrounds. Now
the movement is well started all over
the country and public attention is
being widely directed to these bene-
