negotiations all over again.
But whatever the procedure
determined upon, the one end to
be reached is a garbage disposal
service that will provide not only
for kitchen refuse and ashes but
also for all other refuse that can
not reasonably be disposed with
out municipal action.
The present ordinance was UNI
doubtedly conceived in good
faith and with desire to save
the city some much needed
money. but at the same time the
weeks operations under it have
removed all doubt as to its in
adequacy to meet the city's
needs, and the only thing. there
fore, left to do is to set about
making good the deficiencies in
the service.

Always the Boss.

was visiting my brother, who is a
country minister. and one day he asked
me to be a witness at the wedding of
n couple who had just come in.
The bride was tall and heavy, while
the bridegroom was much understood.
The minute the ceremony was over,
the bride grabbed the minister, and
gave him resounding kiss, then flung
her arms about the bridegroom and
fairly lifted him from the floor In her
embrace.

HEARD OWN BURIAL SERVICE
Dying Millionaire Had What Might Be
Called a Rehearsal" in His
Bedroom.

When Mr.. Parker Mason, a shrewd
and level-headed millionaire of the
United States, was on the point of
dying a few years ago he conceived the
quaint idea of having n rehearsal of
his own funeral service in his bed
room. He called in Presbyterian
minister, and a few members of the
church choir, and the full service was
rehearsed in his presence and that of
his family and number of his friends.
The clergyman preached an eloquent
and touching sermon on the virtues
and charities of the dying man, and
the choir sang appropriate hymns. AT
the conclusion of the service. which
the millionaire had followed with the
closest interest and attention, he warm
Is complimented both clergyman and
choir on their performance, and after
Diminishing them sent for an under
taker and made the necessary arrange
ments with him and had a personal in
terview with tho pall-bearers. He died
ten hours later. and was buried with
the same service TO which he had lis
tened when alive-Montreal Herald.

"Farm" That Raises Jewels.

The island of the Holy Ghost. Lower
California. has the only farm in the
world which sows and reaps crop of
jewels. Through artificial propaga-
ton and care pearls are actually raised
there in the San Gabriel cove. In their
natural condition the pearl beds are
scattered and the oysters are prey TO
many submarine foes, but on this farm
they are protected by substantial
masonry dixie which walls off portion
of the bays. reaching above high-water
mark. Openings admit the free
passage Of the sea water, but are
aaerded by heavy screens. The bot
tom of this segregated area was
cleared of all growth and paved with
rock brought from the mainland and
laid by divers. Here the pearl oysters
are cultivated just as edible oysters
are.

TRIED AND FOUND WANTING

When the new garbage ordi-
nance was adopted by the City
Council last April by a unanl-
nous vote citizens were asked to
give it a fair trial and live up to
the spirit as we'll as the letter OF
it. In view of the promised saw
ing of several thousand dollars a
year. which was said TO be the
actuating motive for its adop-
ton, judgment by the public was
withheld, pending the test OF
experience under il.
The ordinance has now been
in operation one week today and
it is putting il mildly to say that
it is pronounced failure. The
defects and shortcomings have
proven 10 be SO obvious as well
as so serious that it is no longer
a matter of argument about the
ACCESSIBILITY of continuing the
present plan. but is rather ques-
ton of the quickest and best
means of revising it.
The Article of the City Code
under which the ordinance is
classified is entitled Health OF
City" but it can hardly be said
that it is true to name; for per-
haps the most serious of all the
effects of the present arrange
ment is the constant menace to
the public health arising from the
accumulation of all kinds of
tainted waste paper, cartons,
trash. tin cans. and bottles,
which. as the matter now Stands,
do not come within the ordi-
nancc's definition of garbage"
and hence are not adequately pro-
vided for in the garbage disposal
service; waste paper, cartons,
etc. not being provided for at all
The serious inconvenience and
expense to which the household
ers. shopkeepers and merchants
are subjected on this same &C
count are none the less consider
able. and. combined with the
health menace phase of the ques-
ton. present an irresistible force
of necessity for an immediate
change.
lust what form the change
should take is matter for the
City Council to determine and
that the members realize the
gravity of the present situation
and will do their best TO rectify
it may be taken for granted. One
thing is certain and that is that
some adequate provision must be
made for the disposal of a number
of things not now included in the
definition of garbage for in
stance. the articles above indi-
Gated. such as waste paper. car
tons. tin cans. bottles and the
like. In order to accomplish this
it may be necessary to adopt
supplemental contract, for the
present garbage contract has
nearly year yet to run and 1t is
not likely that this obligation can
legally be impaired by simply re
scinding it. unless the contrac-
tors should definitely agree to
such a course and to starting the
