Matters Before Council.

At the meeting of the city council
this evening several important public
matters are to receive attention. chief
among which will be. it is understood,
a request on the Tri-City Railway COM
pany to reverse its system of street
stops of the cars of its several lines
on this side of the river.
The recommendation will be that the
cars pause On the near side, instead
Of the far, as is done nov. For in
stance, a car moving west would halt
at the corner of the Harper house IN
stead of on the corner of Spencer
square This would be not alone a
great convenience to the public. but
it would have a tendency to minimize
the danger of accidents of the nature
of those that occurred recently in
which coasters We're injured.
If the plan is finally adopted. the
company. in the business section where
people congregate 10 wait for cars, will
stop on both sides of the thorough
fare. as is done in the larger cities.

stores have signified their willingness
to drop the trading stamp, and have
signed an agreement 10 that effect
While it was originally intended not
to issue stamps after Feb. 90 ii was
found necessary to change the date to
April L, 1910, in order to give the pub
lie ample time to redeem their stamps.
An active campaign carried on dur
ing December by both associations
brought about the issue 1t is believed
that smaller merchants will follow suit
as soon as the agreement goes into eff
feet. Many of the smaller retail deal
ers have already signified their inten-
ton of doing so.

A FAD SUGGESTION.

We've had the rough and tumble life;
We've had the simple kind
We've rushed our pleasures and our
strife
And presently We'll find
The need for novelty that grows
Again and yet again
Must cause this old world TO propose
The life that's safe and sane.
The life that knows just where to stop
And truly Graves the best,
With toll enough TO let us drop
Serenely into rest.
We've whizzed on wheels, we've gone
like mad
And now the nervous strain
Should yield unto a later fad
The life's that safe and sane.
