w. G. English of WyOcena has
made a plea in the Portage Register
for the preservation of the natures
beauties in Columbia county. On
account of depradations, Fox's glen
! has been closed and at the present
| time Durward's glen is without a
caretaker. Years ago thoughtless
persons pulled the ferns and flowers
at the Dells to such an extent that
vigorous steps had to be taken in
order to protect the beautiful vege-
tation. Some of the species of fern
are now extinct, the writer says The
writer concludes with: How much
better this world would be, If, in
stead of following Tennyson's des-
rructive saying, Flowers in the
crannied nook, / pluck you out OF
your Granny" we should adopt that
wholesome, constructive enc of Ed
ward Bok's old grandmother: "Try
and leave this world bit more beau
tiful for your having been in it,"

appearing in McClures Magazine. The

Illustrations is one with Mr.. Ford in
one of his first cars, friend John
Burroughs being by his side. There

CT the world who has done a great
service for humanity, brought tina

ten wonders why the Ford agencies
have neat looking places OF business:

wonderful have been the years OF
