Healthy old age is SO absolutely de-

il is dangerous TO life and health. The
best plan is to take a mild laxative
as often as is deemed necessary. But
with equal certainty it is suggested
that cathartics, purgauves, physics
salts and pills he avoided, as they do

A much better plan and one that

which acts as nearly like nature as is

BY FRANK sTockeRIDGE.

There's one thing Richmond can do
that no other town has done.
1t will put this city ION the map"
quickly.
You can, if the people of Richmond
want to, make it the best lighted city
in the world.
There isn't any other field of town
development III which the opportunity
for competition is so large. Not that
there are not some well-lighted towns,
but no municipality has even approx
mated it's possibilities in this direc-
ton.
For one thing, the whole idea of
lighting up town is a new one-new
since the introduction of the electric
light, and one doesn't have to be very
old to remember when there weren't
any electric lights. Why, only a hun
dred years ago the only way one
could find his way about the streets
of London at night was either to car
ry lantern-a candle inside of a tin
cage-or hire a 'link-bok'' to go ahead
with torch. Some of the very big
Sest cities had few Whale-oil lamps
on the principal corners, and later,
when Illuminating gas was introduc-
ed, the big towns put up some feeble,
Is Pickering gaslights. Not very many
of them, though-there never have
been more than 500 gas plants in the
whole United States.
Kerosene oil, though it came along
later than gas. never displaced it as a
town illuminant, but the electric light
jumped to the front as soon as it was
invented. and it's pretty small and
unimportant community today that
hasn't an electric lighting plant of its
own.
Better Lighting Pays.
One thing they have all found out
from their experieuce-better lighting
pays. It pays them in general adj
vertising' value. for one thing, to be
known as 4 well lighted community.
Evansville, Indiana, is known all
through the corn beig as the best light
cd town in the Middle West. Perhaps
it isn't that, but It's Main street illumi-
lers and they tell about it in other
places. Missoula, Montana, enjays a
similar fame in the Northwest.
1t pays the merchants and bust
ness men, too. A well-lighted retail
district quickly becomes a favorite
promenade for the general public in
the evenings They see shop win
dows they otherwise might have nc
opportunity to see and buy more lib
orally. In Rochester. New York what
used to be the wrong side" Of the
main business street.-the side where
business simply could not be done at
profit-has become as valuable as
the opposite side, through better light
ing.
