Europe's pirtiest Town.

All travellers should shun Boryslaw,
IN Gallcia-"the back OF Europe
truthfully called the dirtiest place In
Europe. II is the oil trade center and
Is decidedly not beautiful. In the main
street all the houses have been built
OF mine refuse. and most OF them
have sunk below the level of the
street. In fact. there Is not a solid
brick or stone building IN the whole
of the town, and many OF the houses
are In n state of partial or entire COL
lapse. Unrehned petroleum Is every.
where. II gets into everythlng--food
and clothlng-and the atmosphere
reeks of IT, Along one side of the
main street Is raised wooden pave.
ment. and beneath II Is an oily ditch.
Boryslaw's main waterway Is uar-
row. sluggish. oily stream. On its
banks the towns refuse is c0st. and
the market booths are erected along
side. while the local washerwomen--
though from external appearances one
would Judge that laundresses did not
exist there at aldo their washing In
Its oily depths.

Thsy Never Feed Without Throwing
Out Scouts or Ssntries.
Some Of the common sayings con-
cernlng birds are stupidly wrong.
you stupid goosePl is an expression
constantly heard, yet the goose, wheth-
er wild or tame, Is most sagacious.
Wild geese, for instance. never feed
without throwing out scouts or sen
tries. J. c. Millais describes how he
saw flock OF geese feeding with SEN
tries out and how after time one Of
the sentries went up to a bird that
was feeding and gave 1t gentle peck
on the back. The latter thereupon left
its grazing and went of to take up
guard. while the sentry took its turn
to feed.
Gentle as a dove is such COM
mon proverb that the dove has become
the emblem Of peace. Quite mis-
take, for all the dove and pigeon tribe
are great fighters. and In the breeding
season the cock birds indulge in bat.

The foolish prejudice against all
birds of prey includes that pretty little
hawk the kestrel. Now. II the kestrel
were known as the mouse falcon 1t Is
possible that keepers would not In
variably shoot It on sight. The kestrel
lives mainly on mice and wireworms.
1t is quite innocent Of killing par
tridges.
In game preserving district in
southern Scotland kestrels were prac.

THE FARMER.

THE farmer is a man OF wit.
There's simply no denying H.
- He leads a life OF pampered ease
And is as happy as YOU please.
At nine O'Clock he's ready for
His morning rolls and cafe noir
And when the gourmet thus is fed
His valet helps him out OF bed.
From ten 10 one he reads the news.
The market tips and trade reviews.
To corn and wheat his heed he gives,
For 'tls by these the farmer lives.
So. having figured for the day
Which way the market he will play,
His batch OF daily bread Ia made
BY dealings on the board OF trade.
His daily labors being through,
The farmer takes his lunch at two;
Then donning riding garb, he'll call
His favorite motor from the stall
He rides about to view his farm
And feel the restful country's charm.
His wife. with paints and sketching pad
And all the trinkets Of her fad,
Her easel sets beneath a tree
And paints the view from two TO three
At six o'clock they dine In state
The farming life Is simply great.
The products OF the earth and air
Are on the table groanlng there.
Sweet milk is always at their hand,
Bought by the case. ALI neatly canned.
The trolley line that rsttles down,
IL brings them butter fresh from town
And eggs and luscious chicken fries
The best the city's mart supplies;
Green truck and fruit all crisp and nice,
just taken from cold storage ice,
And Juicy luscious ham. oh. my,
The beat the packers can supply
No wonder life upon the farm
Has always held 20 rare a charml
The cry OF "Rubel" which town foiks
shout
ln only envy inside out
Kansas City star.

The Hague, Sept 16.---An lnterna-

day by the Nieue Courant. Voicing
the views of the most prominent
Dutch physicians. who charge the
Car with responsibility not only for
the sperad of cholera in his own
country, but with its introduction in-
to other countries.
The Nieue Coupant declares that
the lacks of sanitary regulations in

in Holland now Is due to Russian neg
ligence, the paper says, and 1t calls
