To quote further
TT is true that light alone would be insufficient pro-
lection but is equally true tta police alone in
reasonable numbers, cannot afford ample protection
While this fact is generally recognized, there is one
phase of the matter which public education is
needed 1t is the practice in many Cities especially
the smaller to extngush considerable portion of the
street lights at midnight or thereabouts thus leaving
them without the important protection for half the

economy entirely OUT of keeping with the wealth and
civilization of our country at the present time.

er falacy if literally carried out Moonlight is far too
uncertain quantity to be reckoned with in so vital
thing as street lighting. To consider the phases OF the
moon in public lighting contract is as much behind

AMERICANS and EXCITEMENT

All America is always interested in the outcome of
an exciting game of chance and the powers of endur
ance on the part of the human family just produc
tive of intense excitement among them as the hope OF
winning something for nothing. Men and women by
the thousands will gather at the ring side and to

Thev will not only congregate from the immediate To-
cali4y where the event takes place. but will travel by
trains and boats hundreds of miles to witness contest
that lasts but few minutes and at best not to exceed
coupIe of hours The cost to see such contest may
to each individual be almost fabulous but of them
seem to regret the outlay if the contestants give them
a square deal.~ The auto race the continent
which started from New York the opening day of the
Alaska Yukon Pacific Exposition ended in Seattle last
Wednesday during the noon hour, and the announce
ment that the two leading nearing the city
was the signal for many thousands of persons to leave
their homes their work and their affairs in general to
watch the two machines go flying through the city like
streaks of lightning For than hour the good
natured crowd which extended from the South end of
Second avenue to the exposition grounds, wachedard
waited for the flash to go by, and when it did young

DO CLUSTER LIGHTS PAY i?

Illuminating Engineer of New York has the follow

"A corner lot on Broadway is worth more than
lot in the latest subdivision Long Island simply and
solely because a greater number of people pass the
Broadway corner during the day. 1t not infrequenty
happens that opposite sides of street on the same
block have considerably different values, due to the
same cause Anything which adds to the traffic OF
gven street. must therefore, add to the value OF the
ablttinQ property While conditions of accessibility
to necessary utilities such railway stations hotels,
banks public buildings, ETC.. have doubtless prepon-
daarting influence in determining the traffic OF street.
II is equally true that subsidiary condition has such
vital effect as the lighting. Cincinnati has long

naturally affords prominent location for business IL

suit nnetenhs of the pedestrians in the evening take
that side of the square, with the result that 1t is Tar
more valuable as business location than the opposite
side The merchants one OF NeWark's main ousl-
ness streets saw that the bulk of traffic failed to
pass them in a natural course of business; they
installed brilliant system of strest-llghtnng, and
forwth their street became the center OF attraction,
and similar instances can be cited in other
cities It would of be absurd to expect to Gre

ing far beyond the natural limits of traffic but there is
no question that any street directly tributary to busl-
ness thoroughfare can be fully doubled in value by the
installation of spectacular lighting.
In amore general way, lighting the entire business
section of city up to the standards of modere umn-
alton does for the city whole what the lighting of
particular street does for that section it increases
values by increasing the traffic not only from the city
itself but from the surrounding country and nearby
towns That good light increases the value of resi-
Dental streets by making them more desirable needs

thing gives to the city air of progressveness and
prosperity Nothing succeeds like success; to appear
prosperous is the first step to being prosperous.

It would doubtless be stretching the argument to
claim that better street lighting would directly add to
the healthfuness of the street The power of sugges
tion In influencing action, however is fancy;
there is denying the fact that improvement sug
gests another Asphalt pavement has produced clean
streets merely because is easier in itself to clean
than cobblestones but because of it's much ele
CANT appearance it shows strikngy the oensiveness
of filth and neglect. The reasoning applies with
greater force to the lighting of street Not ony will
well lighted streets be kept cleaner a matter or
mere inclination but will be less Uttered and abused
There is extremely little wanton destruction or injury
to property of any kind. Such arises mostly
from thoughtlessness association and not only will
good street lighting be incentive to keeping the
streets clean and sanitary, but will further react upon
the residents themselves with wholesome influence to
cleanliness

MILLIONS OF LIVES LOST
An Awful Toll Collected by Consump-
tion.-ManY Unnecessary Deaths
from this Disease.

If people could only understand
that systemic catarrh is an internal
disease that external applications
cannot cure, they would not need
to be warned so often about this
malady, which, when neglected,
paves the way oftentimes for con-
sumption, at the cost of millions
of lives every year. Yet catarrh
may be cured, if the right treat
ment is employed.
Catarrh is caused by a general
diseased state of the system which
leads commonly to annoying and
perhaps serious local conditions,
which may prove fertile breeding
ground for germs of consumption.
External remedies give but tenn
porary ease.
The only way to successfully
treat catarrh is by employing a
medicine which is absorbed and
carried by the blood to all parts of
the system, so that the mucous
membrane or internal lining of the
body is toned up and made cap
able OF resisting the injection of
consumption and other diseases.
We have remedy prepared
from the prescription of physi-
clan who for thirty years studied
and made catarrh speciality, and
whose record was a patient re-
stored to health in every case
where his treatment was followed
as prescribed. That remedy is
Rexall Mucu- Tone. We are so
positive that it will completely
overcome catarrh in all its various
forms, whether acute or chronic,
that we promise to return every
penny paid us for the medicine in
every case where it fails or for any
reason does not satisfy the user.
We want you to try Rexall
Mucu- Tone on our recommends
ton and guarantee. We are right
here where you live, and you do
not contract any obligation or risk
when you try Rexall Mucu-Tone
on our guarantee. We have
Rexall Mucu-Tone in two sizes,
50 cents and $500. Very often
the taking of a 5o-cent bottle is
sufficient to make a marked i'm
preston on the case. OF course
in chronic cases a longer treat
ment is necessary. The average
in such instances is three ST. 90
bottles. Remember you can OBJ

Berlin, Oct. ! The speeches re
Gently attributed TO Lord Northcliffe,
Admiral Lord Charles .Beresford and
Earl Grey, governor general of Can
ada, together with various magazine
articles dealing with the relations OF
Great Britain and Germany, have been
widely reproduced and commented
upon in this country.
The prevailing note is one of ap
prehension that a regular campaign
has been organized for the purpose OF
depriving Germany of the good will
of the United. States and nourishing
the idea that Germany is threatening
Great Britain.
The German commentators point
out that all the suggestions of com.
ing trouble between Germany and
Great Britain come from the British
side.
Apprehension is expressed also over
the growth of the war party in Great
Britain. This party today is small
but it is influential and, fed with
doubts and Misrepresentation and ex-
travagant and fanciful accounts of
Germany's aims, it is gathering
strength.
An Off cial effort is being made to
restrain German comment upon these
speeches and articles with the idea OF
avoiding the production of materia
for irritating discussions
