DIFFERENT STYLES.

How Meredith and Browning MIsht
 Describe the Same Incident.
 If Browning and George Meredith were describing the same net they might both be obscure, but their ob- scurities would be entirely different. Suppose, for instance, they were de- srribiug even so prosaic and material aIt act as a man being knocked down stairs by another man to whom he had given the lie. Meredith's descrip- ton would refer to something which au ordinary observer would not see or at least could not describe. It might bn sudden sense of anarchy fin the brain of the assaulter or stupefac- Ion and stunned serenity in that of he object of the assault.
 He might write: "Wainwood's men vary in veraclty' brought the baronet's arm up. He felt the doors of his brain burst and Wainwood a swift rushing of himself through air. accompanied with n clarity as of the annihilated."
 Meredith. in other words, would speak queerly because he was describ' Ing queer mental experiences. But Browning might simply be describing the material incident of the man being knocked downstairs, and his descrip. ton would run:

The three ladies who are circulating subscription papers for the purpose of raising funds with which to purchase a steam heater to be placed in town hall, are meeting with good success. These ladies are Mrs. A. V. A. Felten, Mrs. O. W. Camp and Mrs. J. L. Parsons. Nearly every person to whom the papers have been presented has subscribed. That there is need of better heating facilities in this building is we'll known by members of the Choral Union, the Assembly, and others of the citizens of the town who have occasion to congre- gate there. The stoves now in use are inadequate. Particularly the stage and dressing rooms are cold. Last year there were occasions, when home talent plays were being produced, when the participants therein were obliged to don heavy wraps in order to keep warm while in the dressing rooms or behind the scenes. This condition is not only unpleasant, but dangerous to health. Town health officer, Dr. F. H. Lee, ably  seconded by the other phyaclans, also pronounces the condition of the build ing decidedly unsanitary. There is an entire absence of plumbing and there are many reasons why such plumbing is necessary. Taken in their entirety, town hall conditions are in bad way. Elsewhere in to-day's paper, Daniel l.. Peirce, who always espouses projects for the betterment of local conditions, and who subscribed generously to the fund, has a communication, in which he out lines his views on this matter. And we believe he voices the sentiment of the majority of North Canaanites. We really believe this new heating plant will become a reality for it is a matter of history, not only here but elsewhere, that when the ladies start out to accom- plish purpose, and set about it as energetically and as enthusiastically as have these ladies. they usually get what

the heating and sanitary arrangements are, to speak plainly, & disgrace to the town. am told on good authority that a very large portion of the epidemics are traced to public places where the sani- tary conditions are bad. Is it not quite time for reform in this respect? This town Is very liberal in other lines of i'm provements for which we make no com plaints and yet I am rold that few of our people are opposed to this one on the ground of expense and the expense is mere trifle compared with some of our other enterprises. Many of our people have very little interest ill the way some of our money is expended. They seem to think it does not benefit them ai- though in way 1t does. But this mat ter of town hall improvement is for the benefit of all. The taxpayers and non-taA- payers and their families and the lab, r ing class, whether taxpayers or not, U entitled to be considered for they have contributed by their labor to the wealth of this town and now W hilo some of the citizens of the town are willing to help this worthy enterprise along, let's havr 1t done and not be penny wise and pound foolish.
