BARGAIN OF M. D. AND D. D..
Mutual Obligations Entered Into That
Surely Should Have Been
Satisfactory.

Newell Dwight Hills, the now ia
nous New York preacher and author
some years ago took charge OF the
First Presbyterian church of Evans
ton, Ill. Shortly after going there he
required the services of a physician
and on the advice of one of his par
ishioners called in doctor noted fol
his ability properly to emphasize a
good story, but who attended church
very rarely He proved very satisfac
tory to the young preacher, but for
some reason could not be induced to
render a bill. Finally Doctor Hills
becoming alarmed at the inroads the
bill might make in his modest stipend
went to the physician and said See
here, doctor, l must know how much
/ owe you"
After some urging, the physician re-
piled: We'll, I'll tell you what I'll
do with you, Hills. They say you're
a pretty good preacher, and you seem
to think am a fair doctor, so I'll
make this bargain with you. I'll do
all can to keep you out of heaven ii
you do all you can to keep me out OF
hell, and 1t won't cost either of us
a cent. Is it a go?"-Cosmopolitan

Among the most frequent requests
that go to the United States senate
are those asking some prominent
member to give money to charity or
CARNATIONS, hospitals and other phi
lanthropic undertakings. One day a
charity worker asked Senator Flint
Of California, who is not wealthy
man, to give large sum Of money
for free ward in one of the hos
pitfalls.
Il am sorry that l cannot comply
with your request" said the senator
gravely; but, judging from the num-
Der of similar demands that have been
made upon me in the past, l have de-
cided that l can promote a greater
charity. The vast amount of money
spent on hospitals in this town con-
vinces me that thousands Of people
are going to die and be buried with
out flowers. Hereafter | shall devote
my spare money exclusively to send
ing flowers to the dead. The Sun

Mrs. Browning.

Apropos of the jubilee of the death
Of Mrs. Browning, it is not generally
known that the event occasioned one
of the tenderest things her husband
ever wrote. He tended her alone the
night before she died, and wrote of
her passing in letter of infinite pa
thos addressed to their mutual friend,
Mrs. Blagdon: Then came what my
heart will keep till | see her again,
and longer-the most perfect express
sion of her love to me within my
knowledge of her. Always smiling and
with face like a girls; and in
few minutes she died in my arms, her
head on my cheek. There was
no lingering or acute pain, nor con-
seriousness of separation. God took
her to himself as you would lift
sleeping child from a dark, uneasy bed
into your arms and the light"

''WHY SHOULD ! USE
CUTICURA SOAP?

"There is nothing the matter with
my skin, and thought Cuticura Soap
was only for skin troubles" True, it
is for skin troubles, but it's great mis-
sion is to prevent skin troubles. For
more than a generation its delicate
emollient and prophylactic properties
have rendered it the standard for this
purpose, while its extreme purity and
refreshing fragrance give to it all the
advantages of the best of toilet soaps.
It is also invaluable in keeping the
hands soft and white, the hair live
and glossy, and the scalp free from
dandruff and irritation.
While its first cost is a few cents
more than that of ordinary toilet
soaps, it is prepared with such care
and Of such materials, that it wears
to a wafer, often outlasting several

Cuticura Soap is sold by druggists and
dealers everywhere, but the truth of
these claims may be demonstrated

10 HELPS
CITY BUILDING IN GERMANY
There Town Planning Has Become q
Science, With an Eye Always
to the Future.

No cities in the modern world com.
pare with those which have arisen in
Germany during the past twenty ears.
There are none in Great Britain, from
which country official delegations are
constantly crossing the North Sea to
study the achievements of the Ger
man city. There are none in France,
in which country the building of cities
has made but little progress since the
achievements Of Baron Haussman
made Paris the beautiful city that
It is.
In city building, as in other matters,
all science is the handmaiden of pol
itics. The engineer and the architect,
the artist and the expert in hygiene
are alike called upon to contribute to
the city's making. The German cities
are thinking of tomorrow as we'll as
Of today, Of the generations to follow
as we'll as the generation that is now
upon the stage. Germany alone sees
the city as the center of the civiliza-
ton of the future, and Germany alone
is building her cities so as to make
them contribute to the happiness.
health, and well-being of the people.
In city building, as in other things,
Germany calls in her experts. If they
do not already exist she creates them.
Town planning has become a science,
Just as much science as the building
of engines And it is treated as such.
A school has recently been opened in
Berlin devoted to the subject. EXbl-
bition of things municipal and con-
crosses Of various kinds are promoted.
An exhibition of town planning and
city building is being held in Berlin
this year, from May to July. There
has grown up a substantial literature
on city building. There are experts
like Stubben, Fisher Gurlett and Bau-
meister, who go from city to city and
consult with the local authorities on
their projects. Nothing is haphazard.
Nothing is left to chance. The get
rich-speculator and the jerry builder
are subordinated to the will of the
community acting through its perma-
nent and expert body of city officials.

How long will it be before our So

many respects fundamentals, too
we are far behind Europe? Listen to
this: There are 1900 towns and vii
lagos in Germany which derive SO
much revenue from the lands which
they own that they are free from all
local taxes. Five hundred of these
are not only free from taxes, but are
able to declare annual dividends of
from S25 to 500 year to each citizen
as his share of the surplus earnings
of the common lands. This mode of
doing things is growing at such a
rapid rate that Germany will soon be,
If she is not already, the most econom-

Dust and Tuberculosis.

As result of the dangers from con.

forms of dust, and at the request OF
the National Association for the Study
and Prevention of tuberculosis, the
United States government has recently
appointed a commission to work in CO
operation with state authorities in
making an investigation into the con.
ditions of the metal mining industries
in the United States, with special ref
erence to diseases of the lungs. The
work of the commission engaged in
this special task will follow lines
somewhat similar to those worked out
by the Royal Commission of Australia,
whose report was recently received in
