Make Saturday Easier.

There is a movement on foot TO IN
duce the closing Of stores on Saturday
night, so as to put an end to the larger
part of the Saturday night dissipation
that is, the trading and the worry
ing until near midnight. The purpose
is to bring about a Sabbath day prep
aration, and in this way to secure
real rest for the people. Perhaps the
promoters of this movement nave
more in mind the sacred nature Of
Sunday and a desire for its observance
as Gods day rather than as mans
day. We are inclined to think, now
ever, that it would be a good thlng Il

Anti-Saloon League Campaign,

The Vermont Anti-Saloon League,
through it's superintendent, the Rev.
c. Fl. Smith, of Burlington, Will consider
a publicity campaign from now until
March 5, election day, in the interest of
decreasing the number of license towns
in the state. A pamphlet containing
views of leading Vermonters on the
need and value of total abstinence will
be generally distributed and other litera-
ture pertinent to the subject.
MI. Smith in interview made the fol-
lowing statement:
"The Anti-Saloon League of Vermont
will not force its aid in the no-license
campaign on towns in which the temper
ance people feel they can manage the
question to better advantage without its
help. Those who are on the ground
are better judges of local conditions than
any one outside however good his inven-
ton. But if there is any way in which
the league can help win a no-license
victory. either by the circulation of liter
ature. or providing of speakers for public
meetings, or by private conference and
su0oestiop. we stand ready to do our ut
most for better Vermont"

a-RlTS OF LONDON STREETS
Ivory Ballroom Floors Give
Charm to Metropolis.

After a spell Of dry weather the
streets in London, paved with wood
and asphalt, become polished to a
very high degree, and the sheen upon
Victoria street and Piccadilly, and
some other roads, is so remarkable
that at night they shine almost like
ice in the glare of the lamps.
If an unused section be observed
over which motor cars do not run, no
polish will be seen, but in the MIDI q
of the street, the surface, thou,
curiously enough, not slippery in its
dry state, is polished like the floor of
a ballroom, the natural effect, when
one comes to think of it, of rubber
and steel in justaposition, and the
slight but continual slipping of wheels
over a surface of hard wood. One eff
feet of this polish is to make it i'm
possible for any light or loose matter
to rest upon it when there is any
wind at all.
The center of our streets has be-
come marvelously clean, and all the
horse refuse is blown into the cutters
near the pavement, which, being often
flushed with a trickle of water, col
lects most of this light and dangerous
detritus which would otherwise be
blown further afield. / had often
written of the Ebony Way down the
Champs Elysees in Paris. We have
now in London many ebony ways, but
not being given as a nation to so
much overlubrication as our Gallo
neighbors, our roads are not so black
owing to dripping oil on the surface.
The surface of our streets is becom.
ing more like polished ivory than pol
ished ebony.
The effect of the road board and
its grants is already to be seen all
over England in regard to the max
ing of main roads dustless. An i'm
mense increase in the mileage of
tarred roads is observable in nearly
all the counties.
Kent, which had the honorable dis.
tinction of being the first to tar al
most all it's main roads, is renewing
this process wherever necessary, and
all around the south coast, up through
the western midlands, and even right
away to the north, an immense
amount of tarring has been done of
late, assisted as it has been by this
wonderful spell of fine weather. The
relief has already been very sensible
to roadside dwellers and to users OF
the highway alike.-Lord Montague in
The London Car.

MUNICIPAL ART IN EUROPE
Cities Encourage Architects to Pre-
serve Historic Beauty, Wherever
1t Is Possible.

The city of Frankfort purchased a
number of old buildings surrounding
the CITY Hall and dating from medic
val times, and restored them to their
original style in order to preserve the
harmony of the surroundings. In
Copenhagen the city gives a substan
tial prize each years to the architect
who produces the most beautiful
structure and harmonizes it most per
fectly with the old. Dusseldorf either
erected or aided in the erection of
monumental structures for the Ger.
man steel trust and the department
store of Tietz. These business struc.
lures, built according TO the city de.
signs, are ornamented with sculpture,
paintings, and mosaics, and suggest
great modern palaces rather than
business premises. In Frankfort the
city has just completed a great expo
sition hall capable of holding $4,000
people, where industrial art, and 9th.
er exhibitions can be held, where
great conventions can assemble and
monster ceNcerts be given. The cost
of the building ran into millions of
dollars, but the city will realize a re-
turn in the business which it brings
to the city, no less than in the happi
ness and pleasure of the people. Mu.
mich has a similar permanent exposi.
ton group containing a new theater,
an auditorium, a great hall for ex-
hibits and a summer garden for con-
certs.

KILLS GsTaRRH GERMS
Antlseptic Healing Treatments That Qnick.
Iy Cures al TrlfIlng Cost

Catarrh is now known to be caused by
decease germs and it may be cured only
by an antiseptic treatment that will kill
the catarrh germs and soothe and heal
the mucous membrane.
Nothing else combines the soothing
and antiseptic powers in as perfect de-
gree as Mentholatum. Apply little of
this in the nasal passages on going to
bed and it cures while you sleep. Then
apply again in the morning and its cura-
tive and healing effect acts all day long.
A jar of Mentholatum costs only a
trifle, 26 cents, aud is sold by druggists
everywhere under guarantee of money
back if it fails to do all that is claimed
for it. 1t is a wonderful household
remedy and is good for all inflammation,
