ment and wear, when used by adding
"a OF a gallon of Oil to each gallon OF
the L. & M. colors as produced at

Physicians and private individuals
sending the heads at animals sus-
pected of rabies for examination
should be careful to pack them in
ice and to send them direct to
Washington, if they wish satisfac-
tory examinations made. The
State Health Department does not
make the examination for rabies
and, during recent weeks, has re-
ceiyed a number of specimens in
such condition that they had to be
destroyed. Under arrangements
with the Federal Government,
specimens from Virginia can be sent
to the United States Hygienic Lab
ratory at Washington, provided
they are sent direct by express,
prepaid and carefully packed mice

Mr. Wallace thoroughly appreciates
them all. and eventually, doubtless, his
ideas will be put into practical form,
as well as many other ideas which have
not yet been conceived, as the work
of beautifying aud rendering every
thing attractive proceeds.
The idea Of large park on the

at present such park would be out.

idea that the city boundaries will ex

All of the things tending towards

inviting bither those who wish to en-.
JOY perfect health and to renew their
