TREES FOR CITY STREETS
Silver Waffle Is Considered One Of the
Best That 10 Available at the
Present.

Acacia Dealbata, the silver waffle, is
one of the best trees we have for city
street planting, and considered by the
writer lat presently the very best. We
are still in our infancy, In the street
tree question, for none has been sufi-
GENTLY proven to give US permanent
opinion as to its comparative value.
We plant out new tree, and after
four or FIVE years trial conclude 1t Is
eminently satisfactory. At the end of
another five years the same tree may
be wretched subject, quite unfit for
street planting. The pepper alone has
stood the test of time, yet city resi-
dents do not want 1t, for they will not
properly plant and care for it. While
the silver waffle should be as well
cared for, 1t conducts itself properly
with little less restriction than the
pepper tree. and is really the most
beautiful Of all acacias.

ENGLISH TOWN is A MODEL
Bonneville, Suburb Of Birmingham,
Practically Ideal In All OF Its

Under the head Garden Cities
Wilhelm Miller gives us splendid pic
ture of an ideal garden city. He says:
1.-THE most perfect city I have ever
seen or heard of is the famous city OF
Bonneville, a suburb of Birmingham,
England. | was simply transported by
the healthfulness, happiness, and
beauty OF the place, and believe 1t
gives the people more for their money
than any city on earth. Any one who
has cherished some noble vision of a
glorified humanity would be intensely
interested to see Bonneville.
"Can you imagine yourself living
four miles from the city of Pittsburg
in a suburban town of about 5000 In.
habitants, where there are no saloons
and never can be any slums, noise,
dirt, crowding, factory smells, bill.
boards, or streets torn up for gas light
ing or sewers? Wouldn't you like a
chance to play golf, tennis, cricket,
bowls, or hockey under ideal circum.
stances at cost of a few cents a day?
Wouldn't you be satisfied with the So
cial life of community that has splen-
did schools, churches, baths, gymnasi.
UNI, Westinghouse, and one-tenth of its
whole area given up to parks and play.
grounds? Wouldn't you feel safer in
city where the national birth rate
has been doubled and the death rate
cut In two? And what would you say
to a handsome brick house of seven
rooms and bath, with an eighth of an
acre already planted with fruit trees,
vines, and lawn, at rental of $3.50
month?
"Bourneville was founded by George
Cadbury, the cocoa manufacturer.
Only Al per cent. Of the renters at
Bonneville are employees of the fac
tory. The others came from any
where and everywhere, and many of
them spend their days in Birmingham.
Consequently the social life is that of a
normal, mixed communicated merely
industrial or suburban. In the second
place, Bonneville really pays. The
city's chief source of income is rent.
Everybody pays per cent. on the in
vestment actually made in his house
and lot. The city's income doubles ev-
cry five years lit is now fifteen years
old,) and in fifty years, at this rate, 1t
will have an annual income of about
$5,000,000. And since it will never
have to pay back Mr.. Cadbury's gift
of about $775,0o0, the city will have
a large sum available for building 9th.

FROM THE NORTH COUNTRY
Where the Winters Are Cold and the
Shows Deep.

Writing from the vicinity David
Harum made famous, man says that
he was an habitual coffee drinker, and,
although he knew 1t was doing him
harm, was too obstinate to give it up,
till all at once he went to pieces with
nervousness and insomnia, loss of ap-
petite, weakness, and generally
used-up feeling, which practically I'm.
fitted him for his arduous occupation,
and kept him on a couch at home
when his duty did not call him out.
While in this condition Grape
Nuts food was suggested to me, and I
began to use it. Although it was in
the middle of winter, and the Their
mometer was often below zero, almost
my entire living for about six weeks
of severe exposure was on Grape-Nuts
food with little bread and butter and
a cup of hot water, till / was wise
enough to make Postum my table bev-
erage.
After the first two weeks l began
to feel better and during the whole
winter l never lost a trip on my mail
route, frequently being on the road
or hours at time.
THE constant marvel to me was
how person could do the amount of
work and endure the fatigue and hard
ship as 1 did, on so small an amount
of food. But found my new rations
so perfectly satisfactory that l have
continued them-using both Postum
and Grape-Nuts at every meal, and
often they comprise my entire meal.
"All my nervousness, irritability and
insomnia have disappeared and healthy,
natural sleep has come back to me.
But what has been perhaps the great
est surprise to me is the fact that
with the benefit to my general health
has come remarkable improvement
in my eye-sight.
IF good appetite, good digestion,
good eye-sight, strong nerves and an
active brain are to be desired, l can
say from my own experience, use

Model DWELLINGS for the Poor.

The Princess Polignac, formerly
Miss Winnaretta Singer, has just
opened in Paris the Foundation Sing
er Polignac, an apartment house for
Ga families. These are designed to
give healthful living conditions for the
poor. The buildings are of brick and
iron. A room and kitchen may be had
for $44 year; with a dining room in
addition. $50; with two rooms and a
large kitchen, dining room, kitchen
and bedroom, $50. Thus all rents are
below the 500 rate, where taxes be-
gin. A garden costs 81 a year in ad-
dition.
