5 Thou hypocrite, first cast out the
beam out of thine own eye; and then
shalt thou see clearly to cast out the
mote out of thy brothers eye.

the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls
before swine, lest they trample them

Gently gone over by the board Of en-.
gineerS named for that work and the
Commission of Fine Arts, and re-

that reclamation Of those river shoals

Several plans have been laid down on
paper showing the usual park fea-

skate in winter and go a-boatfng in
summer. There are some differences
in the plans. but the wish of a great
rumber of people is that some scheme
shall be adopted and carried through
with reasonable speed.
The Board of Trade committee on
bridges pointed out in a recent report
that this reclamation work cannot be

draw has been built in that bridge
that dredges may pass, and the COM
