Monument to Genius.

Amid the ruins of the capitol at
Rome, on October 10, 17e4, Edward
Gibbon formed the resolve to write
THE Decline and Fall Of the Roman
Empire" and on the night of June 27,
1857, nearly twenty-three years later,
In the summerhouse of his garden, the
last word was written, but in those
laborious years Gibbon had built an
enduring monument to his own genius.

Just What She Wanted.

There was shrek and splash
followed by another splash immediate
ly afterward, as the would-be rescuer
swan to where the lady had disap-
peared under the water. He caught
her as she struggled to the surface and
sought to calm her. "Don't struggle,
madam" he spluttered. "We are quite
safe; the lake Is quite calm and as
clear as mirror and" "Well, let go
my arms, then" said the now COM
forted lady. "and let me look into it..
think my hair is coming down."

GAVE THE SURFACE.

, Save the surface and you save
I an. Disintegration and decay
Z are conditions which usually
I start 1t the surface Of any ma
terial. Protection against de-
I terioration or rot of substances
/ therefore, should begin with
/ care Of the exterior. Provided
/ material does not carry within
I itself the element of sure decay, !
+ proper surface protection will
/ undoubtedly lengthen Its life.

ciated Charities association netted
approximately $500, this sum in
GLIDING honorary memberships OF
S25 and contributions of 25 cents
which means that the body is to be
most representative of the city. A
large number of captains and their
workers in each of the 26 pre-
cincts put in a busy day yesterday
in a house to house canvass and
were received cordially by the peo-
pie.
At a meeting of the captains and
workers yesterday at the Rock Is
land club readjustment was made
of the character of memberships
in the association, honorary mem
bership to be had for SIS; sus-
tanned membership at $40; contrib
uting membership at SIS and regular
members, 81. This readjustment
will permit of larger membership
and more representative of the city
at large.
The canvass for members and
funds will continue through the
week and the directors of the work
hope to exceed the budget amount,
$1,000, by the close of the drive.
