AS TO AUTOS.

Distinctly we are coming to be ma
ton of automobiles. In 1898 the auto
mobile industry amounted to two mil
lion of dollars; ten years later it went
to one hundred and thirty millions
This year many of the popular factor
les are behind with their commissions
finding 1t impossible to turn out ma,
chimes fast enough to fill orders. This
is almost an unprecedented advance
in the world of trade. America has

ropes 5000; and we have exported
machines enough to show over two
and half million dollars to the credit
side of our factories, as compared
with the import figures.
The first machines were prohibitive
in price, except for the very rich; but
already competition and improved fac,
tory facilities have lowered the price
until people OF moderate means may
possess one-if they are willing to

ker, the tobaconist and the dressma-
kerr The time is not far off when
such ownership will be as common as
that of horses. But before that time
comes something has got to be done
to protect pedestrians, and even other
autoists, from danger to life and limb
through the speeding habit.

| ter have been forced TO submit for 25
years. The paramount purpose of or
dinance No. 1873 giving to Peter Her
die, his associates or assigns the right
to lay water pipes in the streets of
Cairo was, as stated IN the opening
sentence of that measure. to secure
better protection from fires and also
to obtain for the inhabitants of said
city a full and copious supply of good
water" Ii is quite reasonable to as
sumo that the trainers of the ordi-
nance contemplated that the Water
Co. should and would lay all pipes that
might be necessary, IN the streets of
the city. to accomplish those purposes,
That other controversialist who
drew a comparison between the city's
method of building sewers and the
practice of the Water Co, asking
why does not the city put in service
pipes from the lot lines to the sew
ers?" seems also to be laboring under
q misrepresentation. In so far as the
city builds sewers at all, it does put
in the service pipes from the lot lines.
Every contract for sewer that has
been let requires that service pipes
shall be put in at every premises. The
sewer is not considered complete
without the service pipes, nor can the
water pipe system be considered com
plete for the purposes for which 1t is
intended, without the service pipesl J.

THE SHAME OF HAVING FLIES

Much has been said this summer
of the danger of having flies around
and of the best ways of poisoning
them or otherwise dispesing of them
A writer in the September McCmre's
contributes. to the discussion by some
very pertinent remarks on the shame
of having flies. What ne says applies
botb to the country as whole and
to Individual households.
England he tells us, is now almost
without flies. and that because of
the cleaning-up work of the last fifty
years. IF we had no decaying or
ganic matter we should have no
flies he says, and as England has
Systematically undertaken to remove
and destroy such matter the fly prob.
lem for her is solved.
s Al for the households, it is almost
an identical proposition to say that
house has many flies or that it has
MANY smells. THE fly has one su.
preme motive in life, and that is to
HI " tt, ARD the strongest smell He
enters the house because there are
more smells inside than out, and
once in. he frequents the kitchen be
cause there are more smells there
than in the parlor." A number OF
devices for getting rid of flies, base
on their attraction toward smells o.
their attraction toward light Of Ger
tain intensities, are described in Thu
article. and prospective home build
ers would do well TO consider ther
and have provision made for som
of them in their kitchen or othe
rooms A useful hint as to KILN
flies with not other apparatus tina
the human hand Is also given. Mos

Removal of Churches by vestry.-
Since 1907 st. Johns chapel has been
a place of worship in New York. Ow-
ing to changed conditions in its neigh
borhood the vestry of Trinity church
determined to close it, and to transfer
the work carried on there to another
church within the same parish, half a
mile distant To prevent this remov-
al an injunction was sought. In Burke
VS.. Rector, etc. of Trinity Church, III
New York Supplement, 255, the New
York Supreme Court held that the yes
try has the supervision and control
and is the sole manager OF the tempor-
alities of the corporation, and the
plaintiffs are required to conform 10
the canons, usages, and discipline of
the church of which they are mem
bers. The judicial power is reluctant
TO interfere in matters of religious rr
ecclesiastical arrangement, and will
do so only when rights OF property or
civil rights are involved No such
rights appear TO be affected by this
controversy. No cause having been
presented for the cognizance of a
court of equity the application for in
junction was denied

Here are few suggestions which
will be well worth remembering:
When a horse is tired he is much
more subject to collie. DO not change
the feed of the horse during heavy
spring work There is much more
danger In feeding corn or wheat than
there is in feeding oats Water your
horses when you first bring them in
from the field; then let them eat hay
for half-hour, and give them their
grain last. Pull their shoes off while
doing the spring work.

DestroYinn l.ocusts.

The method of DISCRIMINATING To-
Gusts most generally adopted in Pan
ANA has been to dig a trench about
fifty feet In length. two feet wide and
one foot deep, with perpendicular
sides, in which the locusts are driven
by men beating the grass and trees
with switches In this way millions
are collected and are destroyed with a
solution of strong I've soapsuds The
trench Is then retllled with earth so as
to allay the odor.

In India when a stranger meets WON
an he always addresses her as "mataree,"
meaning mother, from which fact one can
easily find out that in India woman is
respected, always occupying the noble place
of mother.
Again, an Indian woman's name be-
gins with a term meaning with grace
and does not indicate whose wife she may
be or whom she belongs to. In this coun-
try a married woman is always recognized
as Mrs" that is, the wife of somebody
or belonging to somebody, which clearly
indicates that woman's position as a sepa-
