WITH CITYS PRIDE AT HEART
Santa Fe Journal RegretfuIIy But
Firmly Calls Attention TO Mu-
nIeipaI Derellction.

The New Mexican does not wish
to be unpleasantly or unduly critical,
but a dead rooster at the corner Of
Palace and Lincoln avenues has lain
there unburied for three consecutive
days.
There is no doubt about that roost-
er's death. No physiclan's certificate
Is required, as the passerby may tes-
tify. He has passed away. Now,
while one rooster occupies compare
lively little space, and while a casual
visitor to the city might not notice
him, the principle of the thing is
wrong. One tourist might see that
rooster and fail to see the old palace;
and his report on Santa Fe would fea-
ture the fact that It had no facilities
for interring or removing defunct
roosters.
Let no visitor to the Oldest-Newest
city in the United States see unburied
roosters on our street corners. 1t is
the little things that go to make the
big impressions. Every rooster re-
moved and buried makes Santa Fe one
rooster the cleaner, one rooster the
brighter and more attractive.
Let us let no dead rooster escape
or any other debris, animal, vegeta-
BILE or mineral, on the streets Of this
beautiful capital city Of New Mexico.

HAD NO NEED OF THE BIBLE
Students Very Much In Error When
They Thought They Could Em-
barrass Henry Ward 5eecher.

A good story is told about the late
Henry Ward Beecher, who was &C
customed to find his inspiration
wherever he might open the Bible.
He was preaching once before the
Harvard students. One of the stu
dents in a spirit Of deviltry removed
the Bible from the altar and substi-
tuted Webster's dictionary. The word
was passed around, and as the noted
divine ascended the pulpit the collie
gians leaned back to enjoy the fun.
Doctor Beecher adjusted his glasses
and opened the book.
my text this morning. he began,
"is taken from the Song of Solomon" +"
Then, as casually as if nothing had
happened, he went on: 81 am the rose
Of Sharon and the lily Of the valleys.
AS the lily among thorns, so is my
love among the daughters. AS the
apple tree :"
The students by this time had be-
gun to look sheepish. They never
again tried to play joke on Henry
Ward Beecher.

Extraordinary Legal Decision.

An extraordinary situation has been
created in Nice by the decision Of the
local tribunal in case brought against
one of the finest and newest hotels in
the town by hairdresser and wig
maker carrying on business in a street
at the side Of the hotel. The hair
dresser, says the Standard, sued the
proprietor Of the hotel on the ground
that his light had been spoilt by the
height of the building that had been
put up so near him, that his wig-mak-
ing required strong light, and was in
reality a work of art Of great value.
He merely asked that the hotel should
be pulled down. The extraordinary
thing is that Judgment has been given
in the hairdresser's favor, and the ho-
tel proprietor has been ordered to take
down a building representing a vast
sum Of money.

Hearing SO much about Grape-Nuts,
I concluded to give it trial and find
out if all l had heard Of it was true.
so began with Grape-Nuts and
cream, soft boiled eggs, toast, a cup of
Postum and some fruit. Before the
end Of the first week was rid of the
acidity Of the stomach and felt much
relieved.
''By the end Of the second week all
traces Of indigestion had disappeared
and I was in first rate health once
more. Before beginning this course Of
diet, never had any appetite for

PeeIIno onions Tor a LIvIno.

The profession Of onion peeling is
not one that obtains much notice, yet
there are at least five hundred women
in the East end of London earning their
living by removing the skins of onions.
With practice, they can make four or
five shillings per day. Very often they
have been peeling since childhood,
daughters succeeding mothers.
1t is not a profession you can learn
In one lesson, for the skin must be
removed by hand, or the onion Juices"
are Of no use for picking. The onions
are always peeled in water. This is
not to save the eyes Of the peeler, but
is done to keep the onion white.
