LIVING IN CITIES
Residents Are Not as Neighborly
.aS in Country.
Life In Metropolitan municipalities Ia
Battle for Existence, With No
Time for Soeiability.

"WhO, then, is my neighbour" the
man I'm the city pent" asks himself,
as he regards row of similar house
fronts and reflects on the fact that he
has only n nodding acquaintance at
best with the majority of the inmates.
Interdependence is fostered by the
conditions of living in the country.
Ordinarily we do not need the help
of the next house, near or far. But
let fire come, or destructive storm, or
n predatory visitor, or u serious i'll
ness, and the neighbor may be as well
come as angels, says writer in Phila-
delphia Ledger.
City life is often a battle of the
strong, because there are crowds and
there are many mouths to feed and
many shufIling feet to be shod. If we
let ourselves think of 1t, the vast null
titude of identities striving to establish
themselves Is almost terrifying. Where
did so many people come frOm2 Where
are they all going? How are they to
find lodging for the night? Each
Of the moving swarm is the center Of
circle of friends. The humbleSt, un-
less deeply unfortunate, has ties that
bind him to earth and make life-ln a
degree-dear to him.
Out of the pagan wilderness TO the
urban lights and rOarings comes bu-
collie youth. What will the city do to
that unsOphisticatiOn? Or In what
way will its rugged. innocent power
in time come to prevail upon the city?
Your shrewdest, hardest captain Of
business closes his eyes at his desk
and is taken back to murmurous water
brooks and bees, to the aroma of hay,
Of kline, Of burning leaves, to the
sound Of the whetted scythe or the
sight of baked apples in the window Of
the wOodShed.
Why can't they brown tlapjacks or
bake beans or cOncoct apple sauce or
cook oatmeal as they did down ON the
farm?
The table was always big enough
for the unexpected guest. An egg or
quart of milk was no such great event
as it Is in Il city. There used to be
time, too, to settle the affairs Of the
borough and the nation, to discuss
Horace Greeley and to wind the clock,
between supper apd early bedtime.
We have filtration, a..d the vacuum
cleaner, and the servant question, and
all the other city advantages. But 1t
was something to know the nelghbors,
and somehow or other "the men that
were boys when was q boy" mean
something in lifetime that the brisk.
ambitious, clean-shaven, up-puShing
generation does not convey. 1t would
do these take-it-or-leave-it fellows good
TO study the large, leisurely, tranquil
zing ways of their forebears In the
days when "civiiZatiOn" was not on Il
tear from the cheap lunch to the bar
gain counter, and home was not a way
station betwixt the joyride and the
| moving pictures.

The electric ship is no longer a
dream but reality and l should not
he surprised to find, within Il few
years of the close of the war. every
new vessel of any size driven, steered,
stopped, reversed of turned, merely by
the pressing of series of buttons on
the bridge, says writer in the Elec!
trical Times, London. The application
of this principle will enable ships to
be run with the highest efficiency at
an even speed, permit marine engi-
neers more liberty of design and yield
proportiOnately greater cargo space
than the present cumberouS form of
machinery allows.

Prepare to Care for Themselves

Nowhere have the French shown
their remarkable national vitality more
striking than in the way they have
kept up the pursuits of peace while
bearing the brunt of the most exacting
war in history. So far from having
their industries broken by conflict they
have developed scores of new ones,
writes a correspondent. An exhibit
now being held in Paris is given over
entirely to products manufactured in
France, which were formerly imported.
The first division consists of articles
formerly brought from foreign nations,
largely from Germany, while the sec.
ond is made up of articles formerly
made in the northern French districts
now occupied by the invader, which
are now being manufactured in south
ern France.

Exerted Persuasive Power.

Roland was a "native son" and had
taken heed of the conversations of his
friends with their many relatives and
friends who visited them in California.
When small puppy was given to him
the little chap was much disappointed
because Pat would not follow him
about, but preferred to linger near the
milk saucer After having exhausted
all his wiles to no effect, his distressed
little face suddenly frightened once
more with coaxing smiles. Certain at
last that he had remembered an unfail
ing Inducement, he cried joyfully
Come on, Pat! Come on down in the
canyon with me-awful pretty view
down there"

for kidney, liver, bladder and stomach
trouble, and all diseases connected with
the urinary organs. The kidneys and

enter your system through the blood and
stomach are not entirely thrown out by
the kidneys and bladder you are doomed
Weariness, sleeplessness, nervousness,
dependency, backache, stomach trouble,
headache, pain in loins, and lower abdo-
men, gall-stones, gravel, difficulty when
urinating, cloudy and bloody urine, rheu-
