HOLLAND DE1Es7s DIRT.

Much Further Advanced In Municipal
Housekeeping Than America.
The people of Holland are much
further evolved in the manner of mu-
nicipal housekeeping than the Amer
leans. They have acquired TIL" true
idea of the citizens duty in the mat
ter of keeping their streets ciea,l. They
regard dirt as being as much out of
place in the streets as in their houses.
and the average Dutch urbanite would
as soon dump IL bucket of garden mold
in the middle Of his parlor floor as he
would throw any kind Of trash what
ever into the street.
1t would be very much to the ad-
vantage of American towns If the
Dutch point of view VAS acquired by
residents. a great many appear to
think that the street Is the proper
place for trash of amy kind. They
throw newspapers and wrapping pa.
pers and, fruit peeiings and tin cans
into the thoroughfares with the indif.
ference of sailors heaving refuse over.
board at sea. Of course this does not
obtain in all streets. but in many Of
the we'll built respectable blocks in
our. cities trash is constantly in evil
dence.
Some of 1t. perhaps. is blown out of
the Stores. but it is none the less dis.
agreeable to the eye and suggestive of
uncleanliness. Trash boxes are pro.
vided by citiesssat convenient points.
but even when they are. not readily
accessible it is rarely necessary for any
person to cast IL paper forth to be
blown hither md thither. 1t Is nofless
than slovenly 10 unwrap a parcel in
the street and throw the paper away.
It should at feast be crumpledF into .
tight wadssso that 1t will not. blow
about md brighten. horses andsli
the street.
The indifference with which some
people cast aside their u~nconsidered
trifes Of wrapping paper, fruit skins
and the like Is amazing when their
usual habits are studied. They will be
perhaps insistent upon the last degree
Of cleanliness about them personal.
" and yet will contribute with cheer
full thoughtfulness to the discomfort
and the distress Of mind Of numberless
neighbors.
This is a matter that cannot be ct.
fectively reached by regulation. and all
that is left Is to appeal to. the sense
Of propriety. Of the individual and to
ask him to be as considerate Of the
