THE cROSSWAlKS.

Marshal Brown had a force of men engaged yesterday in cleaning up the streets where the cement crosswalks have just been completed. They are a distinct improvement to Tempe's streets. which were already highways to be proud of The contractor who did the work, claims to have made nothing at the figure for which he did it. He underestimated the size of the job and overlooked one of the two de- tails in the specifications and it is doubtful if more work of that kind can be secured by the city at the same figure.

KEEP CLOTHES NEAT

LIMITED.
Device viii at Small
Cost Enable One Always to
Present a Neat Appear
ance on Street.


In the average fat the clothes closet
IS generally nothing more than suS
gestive Granny with "A methodical 70"
Of hooks in It, 1t remains for the ten
ant TO supply such conveniences as
best suit his need and purpose.
In the first place. those invariapie
enameied wire and steel hooks set
at regular intervals in the horizontal
pine slat do not admit of the neat. con-
venient and proper hanging OF
clothes.
To prevent clothes from saSging and
getting shapeless and wrinkled. the
coat hanger is Indispensable. but much
space is wasted this way, and when
the hooks are set close together there
is too much crowding. Where this ex-
lists II is better to ignore the hooks al
together and resort TO this device:
Take a wooden portiere or curtain
pole. or some rod of similar proper
tons. and cut II down to length ex'
actly corresponding to that OF the
closet. Have il fastened about five
feet from the floor and about eight
inches from the wall. parallel to your
row of hooks Hook all your clothes
hangers on this rod. There viii be
room for almost three or four times
as many clothes as you can accommo-
date with the ordinary hooks. Besides
You can take down and replace your
wearing apparel without difficulty or.
annoyance, as the hangers slide easily
along the rod Where the wardrobe
is large and closet space limited. this
is not only a handy but necessary
recourse.
No closet Is complete or satisfac-
tory without two shelves-preferabiy
enc above the Other-an upper Tor
storage purposes the lower for hats.
muffs and boas in season. For these
stout pastepoard boxes boxes will do.
Scrupulous housekeepers have dis
covered various simple devices TO
avoid the unsightly conglomeration OF
shoes, slippers and waterproofs in the
closet. Perhaps the most desirable
arrangement is that of denim COW
cred box with a lid and three compart-
mCDtS Tor SuCtS. ltSSutS anu iuopNAo
respectively. This can easily be fitted
into one end of the closet and lightly
nailed to the floor.
Another good device consists OF
piece OF coiored canvas with a wide
hem and six capacious pockets, into
which shoes and slippers are inserted
perpendicuIariy This is hung square
" against the inside of the closet door
or against the closet wall, where there
is some vacant space.
\ closet is not entirely commodious
unless iNoffers some good receptacle
for laundried irtwaists-which. of
course. should not be hung up with
coat hangers among the colored gowns
nor slowed away in dresser among
a variety of other ARTICLES
Where the shallow drawers of the
chiffonier are not available, dry
goods box running the length of the
closet floor. lined with white and COW
cred with dark material, can be readily
converted into a roomy shirt-waist box
that is not in the least in the way.

lieus in the oyererowded tene-
ment districts of great cities,
but poverty OF means To utilize
the super-abundanee OF nature,
that was everywhere going to
waste because of the want of
such means. This has been
characteristic of the frontier on
this continent for three hundred
years. The pioneers have al
ways been Door in that sense,
but in sober truth, they were the
richest people on the globe

good people, OF who can sport

this distant day, totally unlike
anything Of the kind to come

doubt, and the fact that it was
the first death to occur in the
town, coupled with the further
fact that the little child had to
be put away in Il lonely grave
by itself ON the wide silent prai-
RE, had much to do with it, but
the impression was produced
just the same, and has never been
removed.
The arrangements for the fun
eral were very simple and of
the most primitive and inexpen-

they had to be. Squire Dorring-

were there in force and among

fashioned shroud OF the best
material 10 be had in the mar
ket, and il was, like everything
else, OF the rudest description:
and having clothed the worn

sCant ceremOnials. There was
no minister of the gospel of any
persuasion in the town at the
time, and therefore, no services
of L religious nature were had
at the house, but it was decided
by some of the good ladies', Mrs.
Van Lew and Mrs. Burbank
who were both members of the
Episcopal church, that the ser
vice for the dead prescribed in
the prayer book of that demon

grave, and | was asked to per-

ground: and asit grew from year
to year, the land was purchased
from the state by authority OF
an act of the legislature, and a
regular cemetery association
was formed, and for several
years all the dead of our people
were buried there. As neither
the soil nor the location were
best suited for the purpose, an
other site was procured to the
north of the old one, and on the

and the woods along the river

and golden hues peculiar 10 the
autumnal season, something
happened in our little Out-o1.the-
way community ONE thin =
that always occurs IN the haunts
of men all over the world one
OF our people died. 1t was the
first visitation of the grim mon
ster, death, 10 the new town,
and il was made al the more
sad because Of tie fact that the
one 10 60 was Il little girl Of
ten or twelve years Of aye,
who had through al the long
summer weather, been a patient
sufferer from some lingering dis.
ease, which, with no medical as
sistanee At hand there was no
doctor in town, nor in the county
Tor that matter had ballled
every effort of loving parents
and the kindness of humane
neighbors to stay its slow but
deadly work of destruction OF
the frail life in Il Trailer and
wasting body, and ON 4 quiet
Sunday morning, when far off
church bells in other lands were
calling the people TO hear the
oft told story of another life, an.
other death, and triumphant re
Surrection, the little one ceased
from among the living, and the
mysterious purpose of her eX-
istence on earth, was accomp-
lished.
Death under any circumstan-
ces, and at all times, is Il very
sad and sorrowful affair, but
when we reflect that ii is just as
natural for persons to die, as it
is for them to be born and live,
we must conclude that it is quite
as necessary in the eternal econ
omy as any other inevitable con
dition;and as it is agreed on all
hands by the profoundest think.
ers the world has yet produced,
that every thing in universal
nature, exists from memorable
and absolute necessity, the post
ulate that death has a like eX
istence, must be received as Il
truth admitted.
The conventional idea that
death came upon the world as Il
result of mans disobedience, is
admissible as applied TO man
himself-the world of mentor,
being oil 4 higher order in the
realm of creation, he was not
subject to the common Vicissi-
tudes of other and lower orders
of organic life. This conclusion
is not at variance with the most
orthodox teaching ON the sub
ject, nor in conflict with the
sacred history OF mans Crea
ton, his sin, and his fall, for it
is recorded that when placed in
the garden, he was told, that
''of every tree of the garden
thou mayest freely eat.-But of
the tree of the knowledge of
good and evil, thou shalt not
eat of it; for in the day thou
eatest thereof, thou shalt surely
die"
The serpent, which is gener-
ally understood to near the
devil, got into the garden some
how, and told old mother Eve,
that the Lord did not mean that
they would necessarily die on
the day they should eat of the
fruit of the forbidden tree, but
that He knew that when
they did eat of the fruit they
would become as gods knowing
good and evil. Whatever else
may be said of that much de
nounced parsonage, the devil,
he was not a strict construc-
zionist, and in that case he was
tolerably neal right, for, though
