Those prompt to answer the inquiry Who is to blame for filthy streets are Nkely to reply that the publi works committec is, but it isn't, it Is their duty when the streets are filth to order them cleaned up. The one who throws paper wrap- pings, banana and orange peels, cigar butts, nutshells and all kinds of refuse upen the walk and into the gutter is a contributor to the conditions of slov- enliness which give an otherwise at- tractive city a bad name, In a city campaign for cleanliness | the citizen s taught not to throw refuse of 2ll kinds around as well as the tmportance of picking up every- thing that is unsightly and unsani- tary, There is no denying that the average oitizen comes too near becom- ing a petural slob and the health law which makes spitting upon the walk a pemal offense does mot forbid the throwing about of fermentitious and Qisesse breeding matter of every sort. It is the mixed dust of the streets, vegetable, fbrous, mineral animal, ‘which eauseg the largest per cenmt of tuberculosis if the studentg of cau and effect are right, and the less re use there ig thrown into the street to be ground up and spread by the winds the less throat and lung troubies there will be. PROTECTING THEMSELVES. The National Highway Protpctive soclety of New York has discdvered its mission and has resolved to pursue it. 38 lg mothing less than to assist the Jegal authoritfes of the state in thely efforts to see that laws relating to sutomobiles upon the highways are enforoed. ‘The Incorporators of the moclety mumber In their ranke some of the best known men of New York— gentlemen of Jarge wealth and vast business Intevests, whose very names guarantee sober judgment and sound- nees of purposs, and they are going| to look after the foy riders and speed maniees who add to the perils of the highways and to the injured in the hospitals. ‘The wtreets and highways, espe- clally those most used by speed ma- nlace, are to be kept under survell- lance by an adequate body of paid de- | tootives. These officers, by the way, are to kesp their eyes upon the local police ag well ay upon the speed ma- | niaos, and fefture to do duty on their part will be reported to headquarters. The automobilists who defy the speed laws are to be arrested and prosecut- ed to the Mmit, no matter who they are, and it is assumed that the courts | will 80 far co-operate with the soclety as to impose exemplary sentences where gullt s clearly established Furthermors, a card Index system is to be maintained, which will contain the record of careless drivers, even before they violate the law, so that many “first offenders” in the legal sense, may be compelled in court to face a history that will deprive them of the usual tmmunity from severo punishment. This I what js needed In every| state, and this class of men a»nnz sincerely—without partlality—can more to reduce this lawlessness and restore confidence among the peorle than the polics or any one else. 20 . | TALK OF A MUNICIPAL ICE PLANT Tce dealers, wholesalers and retafl- ers, no doubt, understand thet th are responsible for the present talk of & munieipal {ce plant, not want to go Into the ice busintss of that we are convinced, unless ice prices are put up and kept up so high @s to keep this necessity from the homes of the lese wealthy.

Necessity is the mother of invention. When the people feel that they are heing bled they are not contented. Unreasonableness has spolled many a well-established busi- ness. HOW GERMANY F TOES. Qermany does not fight mosquitoes with kerosene ofl, or any other mal- odorous fluld spread upon the face of the waters, The experimenting s satists of Berlin after fifteen 3 have found a semi-tropica 1 plan arsola—which grows =o thickly on the surface of stagnant pools that the mosquito the mature Insects cannot lay their oggs in the water after the plant iz well installed, It is announced that as Wilhelm haven possesses a malaria station @8 especlally in its vicini of cases of malaria occurred, the ex- periments were made In that territor: Ice dealers laugh at fce. ade o ldea 'S MOSQUI- which is full of stagnant waters and | swamps, Infested with mosquitoes While the -proximity of the sea and the aebmormally cool temperature ‘of the summer of 1907 had an unfavor- able influence upon the growth of the plant, it, however, covered the exp mental waters in @ short time witt layer of about 2,362 inches, which s focated all the mosquito larvae end prevented the living insects from depositing their eggs In the water. This gives a pleasanter and more practical way of destroying the mos- quitoes than is being employed in this country and will be likely to find tavor everywhere. The fact that the city cterk of Bal- timore got away with $100,000 of the tax money before the people knew | shows that watchdogs of the treasury | are not common enough. The latest automoblle has a dog- kemnol astachment, and the big spring hage allow for the rats which are not yot a8 podents Holyoke does | larvae are smothered and | OREGON'S STUBBORNNESS. Oregon’s refusal to abolish the whip- ping post for wife beaters and the nation is surprised, as well as those Oregonians who firmly belleve that the continuance of such a relic of barbarism so humillates and degrades the culprit that the end is absolutely defeated for which the whipping post | is maintained. The husband who will kick and beat hig wife has not thé sense to recognize what his sympa- thizers term “humiliation.” The Bul- letin would not have the whipping post In Connecticut, even for wife beaters, but there is one good excuse | for its maintenance, and it is the very same pretext upon. which we support a big navy; it s a condition of pre- paredness to deal with the offenders which is very likely to act as a check to the brutal instincts of cruel and hot-headed husbands. Preparedness | for exigencies cannot be eadily cough- ed down, and Oregon is prepared for the wife beater and proposes to re- main prepared. EDITORIAL NOTES.

Some housekeeperes have scented wafers in their kitchen, which the cooks lights as soon as any cookery burns. Water and Soda for Tired Foet. Those who stand much often neglect the feet. They will repay & hundredfold every attention. An application of cool water is very soothing. A tin foot bath costs little, though a bucket may be used.

Rings Better than Loops, n making a shoe bag or & laundry bag which is to hang flat against a door, use brass rings instead of loops for slipping over the nalls.
