Public Comfort Stations.

One of the longest and most impor-
tant municipal strides of the last dec
AIDE is the increased and increasing
number Of public comfort stations.
and still more are needed, for, after
all, the world is for those who live in
it. European countries are far in ad-
vance of America in these public con-
veuiences and in this most important
phase of public improvement. There
is no question as to the necessity OF
these stations. but town authorities do
not always know or will not always
see what is best for the whole people.
Too often city fathers" have indi-
vidual fads and lose sight Of comfort
for women and children, to say moth
ing of the visitor or the rural resident
not used to city or town life. The
question of public comfort stations Is
an all important one and will force IT.

in the immediate future.

UPBUILDING HINTS.
How to Keep Your Own Town Before
the Public,

1t is I'd to the citizens of every town.
be it large or small. to keep it prom
inpntly before the public as an enter
prising, hnstling town. one where good
people would not object to living and
raising their children. We don't be-
leve in trying to make of every town
and village Il manufacturing center
and one destined to become Il city in
comparatively short time. All such
statements are vain and misleading.
But there is scarcely Il town which
by cooperation of its citizens may not
be kept alive and made attractive. BY
the organization of the business men
in all lines. and every town should
have such an organization, a great deal
may be accomplished toward its pros
perity. Some organizations undertake
too much at the beginning. and. fail
ing, their members become discour-
aged and give up in despair. when If.
on the other hand. they had only un-
dertaken one or two things at time
and laid their plans well and worked
to them they would have made sue
cess of the venture.
Good roads are one thing needed in
a number of places. and one good road
leading to and through a town will
contribute very considerably to its well
being. A good place where farmers
can hitch their teams and where they
can be provided with water, ETC., is an
attraction worth all it costs. A rest
room. provided each store has none,
where the wives and daughters of the
visiting customers may find such COM
forts as they usually require on such
occasions is also an item not to be over
looked.
When a few conservative business
men get TO working together for the
advancement and upbuilding of their
local interests ideas of value will sug-
gest themselves and they will always
find something worthy of considera-
ton.
Good schools. attractive church build
ings and such things will attract
worthy citizens.-Retail Merchant.

A STRANGE PEOPLE.
Curious Habits of Many Inhabitants
 Only Partly Understood.

From Chambers Journal.
 Away among the deep forests in the heart of the Malay peninsula there dwell singular people whose curious habits are only partially understood. An 1tal- ian explorer found them so interesting that he spent 15 years In studying their habits and customs, and has some won- derful stories ito relate about the Sacai. They live in a barbarious state, spend- ing most of their time In gathering poisons from plants, which they prepare according to secrets known only to them- selves, for protection against their ene- mics and for bringing down their quarry in the chase.
 So accustomed are the Sacai to the life in the woods that the few who have been at various times induced to go down to the coast have almost invariably re- turned to their native wilds on the first favorable occasion. There they hunt game and birds and gather the fruits on which they subsist Though life has its dangers, it has also it's compensations. Nature is particularly rich in her bounty. An abundance Of berries and foodstuffs is found on the bushes and giant trees, among which fly birds of rare and gor- geous plumage. But what proves most attractive to the natives is the great va- riety of poisonous plants. They speak about the different .polsons as faniliarly

and as of:en as we speak about the weather, and the discovery of new kind or combination is hailed as an event of the greatest importance. The reason To! this is because the poison Is used in kill ing game, and catching fish, and for the preservation of their independence, the various connections being mixed accord ing to the resisting power of the object for which they are intended. Thus, Tor instance, the hunter would never think of wasting a strong poison on a small animal he considered unworthy of such an honorable distinction. Besides, he must study to bring down such game as he afterward uses for food with poisons which will in no way affect him.
 Poisons are not difficult to find. Grow ing among the rank grasses and on the trunks of trees, and mingling with creep ing flowers, are so many poisonous plants that the traveller must be constantly on the lookout to avoid them. Some are so deadly that even the the odor arising from them Is overpowering, causing serious Ill., ness; others cause skin disease and pain ful swellngs of the body If their leaves chance to touch ever so lightly the hands or other exposed parts. For this reason the orchid hunter cannot be too careful, since 1t is usually where these dreaded plants flourish most abundantly that the alluring white, red. purple, blue, and many colored orchids are found to thrive most luxuriantly.
 In spite of his extraordinary passion for concocting poisons, the Sacia is through gentleman In the chase and worthy foeman to meet. He IS a big

TEACHERS FACED
 HERESY CHARGE
PATRONS CLAIMED THEY TAUGHT CHILDREN THERE WAS NO DEW. IL AND NO HELL-BoARD DIs- MISSES CHARGES.

Quite an interesting case came before the county board of education yesterday morning when a petition signed by a number of the patrons of the Calvary school. located several miles north of Bir- mingham, was presented protesting against the reelection of Professor and Mrs. Dorchester as principal and assist ant principal of the school.
 The charge against MT. and Mrs. Dor chester was one of heresy. the petition alleging that the Dorchesters taught the children attending their school that there was no hell or devil and that certain parts of the Bible were not inspired.
 Professor and Mrs. Dorchester were on hand to defend themselves and the county board decided to investigate the matter at once. J. L. Dyer, one of the patrons of the school, made the chief speech against the teachers. During the prog ress of the speeches quite number of people gathered and there was much in terest in the hearing.
 The board of education took the mat ter under consideration after all who de- sired to do so had spoken. and in ren- dering its decision sustained the action of the trustees of the Calvary school in electing Professor and Mrs. Dorchester principal and assistant principal, respect lively, of the school

UNIQUE PLAN TO
 CONCEAL LIQUOR
DEPUTIES FIND ICE CHEST WITH NEAT COMPARTMENTS CARE FULLY CONCEALED AND WELL STORED WITH DRINKABLEs.

Whether or not the alleged blind tiger had during his lifetime been mixed up in the art of legerdemain Deputy Sher- ifs Chew and Steel could not find out, but they did find yesterday morning that hereafter no sort of contraptlon for the storage of liquor should be considered sur prising. Necessity is really proving to be the mother of invention and geniuses are developing every day.
 On their rounds in search of tiger lairs yesterday the two deputies visited a place on Second avenue and Fourteenth street with the expectation of finding whisky in the icebox. To the keeper of the place the deputies were apparently as welcome as the flowers in May and while they proceeded to search for liquor he stood off and whistled a. lively little tune, the subject of which is said to have been Never Leave Them Guessing When You Say Goodby."
 And the deputies came within an inch of allowing the suspected violator of the law escape. They went to the icebox and opened it to find nothing in view but two fine cold watermelons. However. the inside of the box looked entirely too small for the outside and an investiga- ton was instituted immediately. What should the deputies find but three or four of the cleverest, neatest fitting little slides in the world and double ice- chest. All that was necessary was to slide back one of the little doors and there you are. Cold beer and whisky and several dozen bottles of 1t, neatly packed in ice between the outside and inside walls of the box. The wet goods were there, when apparently they were not The arrangement is perhaps the smoothest yet discovered by the author ites.
