When the board of trade determined to guarantee the expense of equipping the courts of the local and National Roque association in this city with ce- ment borders, it disposed of one of the two chief reasons back of any agita- tion in behalf of holding the tourna- ment elsewhere, and thus evidenced in a commendable manner the proper artitude towards its retention hers, and indicated a realization of the value of the annual gathering to the city. There is one more way in which the tv can contribute valuable aid for s own interests in the proposition and such should be the stimulation of a greater interest in the game. With the natiomal tournament being held here there should be a greater partici- pation locally in the sport and such an be gained in no better way than by arranging for a more general use of the courts by the boys and girls. In order to be perpetuated the interest in the game must be kept alive by the vounger generations. The assocla- tion realizes that the courts are made better by steady and proper use and n no way could the double purpose of bettering the courts and creating a wider interest be obtained than by making this portion of the grounds, which the city will have become in- terested in, a veritable = playground with the necessary and constant super- vision, for instruction to the young and insurance of protection ta the courts. 1t is a matter in which the association, hoth local and national, should be will- ing to offer hearty cooperation. TESTING CITY MANAGER. Cities which are finding it necessary have new charters are being -n- nced to adopt instruments radically different from the old form so gen- erally used. The idea of a city with- a mayor was almost unheard of a few years ago, but many changes in ity government have been made, and = the result of the development which : subject has undergone, the city of vton, O. by its mew charter is tc be governed by a commission of five and a manager hired by the commis Thus a manager succeeds mayor, his daties being: To see that the Jaws and ordinances re enforced. To appoint and, except as hérein ded, remove all directors of de- partments and all subordinate officers emploves in the department, in the classified and unclassified service: all appointments to be upoa merit and fitness alone, and in the classified service all appointments and removals to be subject to the civil ser- ice provisions of this charter. To exercise control over all depart ments and divisions created herein or that may be hereafter created by the commission. To aitend all meetings of the com- mission with the right to take part in the discussion. but having no vote. To recommend to the commission for adoption such measurss as he may deem necessary or expedient. sion both To keep the commission fully ad- ised as to the financial condition and needs of the city: and To perform such other duties as may be prescribed by this charter or be required of him by ordinance or res- olution of the commission, The object. is to eliminate politics and get do®m to a business basis In gthe conduct of the city, and in its en- jeavor Dayton will be watched by those which are ,contemplating a change. It gives the opportunity to demonstrate whether business can oust partisan politics In city affairs. With the-Maine progressives Insist- ing on their own candidate for con- zress in the speclal election there 1d be no need for the democrats 1o worry or even secure Secretary an to stump the district. o7 Res et Maryland state officlals are prepar- ing to prosecute those whe neglect hirth certificates, The importance of fling all birth, death and marriage certificates ought not to require much emphasis but it does, Governors are a lot of trouble, New York is now bothered with twe while Massachusetts has one in both par- Connecticut has reason to feel that Geverner Baldwin is mantfesting the ‘preper interest in the national confer- ence of geverners and the possibilities which are attached thereto by attend. ing the gession whieh opens this week at Celorado Springs. ~ Theugh suck cenventions do net accemplish as much as they might; they are gatherings ‘when taken seriously, and there are reasons to belleve that Connecticut's executive has sueh in mind en his trip, which offer much of profit. Bub= Jects of timely importance in the mat= ter of legislation are duye for discussion from which much material benefit ir the way of object lessons should re: sult, Y¢ offers the oppertunity for the exchange of ldeas and state exper- lences for the ald or guldance of those seeking light. It has an extensive fleld of useful- ness through cooperating with the or- ganisation working in behalf of unl- form state laws and the valuable in~ terchanging of facts concerning the operation of laws for the Dbetter con- duct of state affairs should furnish ex- cellent food for thought and consider . ation as an aid to future legislation. The wisdom of uniformity should b able to enlist strong champions through such a conference and unfor- tunate is the state where the chie’ executive fails to realize the help which can be gained. Our successes and failures may be able to help others and vice versa. LESSON IN OPTIMISM. The value of persistency is surely recognized by advocates of the univer- sal peace confarence assembled at The Hague since their optimistic attitude on the subject closest to their hearts shows no deviation from the fixed be- lief that International differences should be adjusted through arbitration rather than by war. Though they hava been laboring for two decades through their international gatherings they be- lleve In keeping everlastingly at it despite wars and rumors of wars. They have met with encouraging acts by nations in the adoption of arbitration treaties, only to see sev- eral lapse without remewal, however much it is intended to renew such relations at the proper time. Th have witnessed several wars with their attendant and always to be expected results, and though the lessons are apparent and urgent appeals have been | mage ,no check upon preparedness for any possible military or naval opera- tions have been made. Despite such discouragements have been experienced, it must be re- | membered that the proposition of the peace advocates will gain its great- est strength through education. Wars as cannot be checked in a minute and disarmament cannot be stopped in 2 twinkling. That the delegates to the congress are more enthusiastic than ever Is a lesson in optimism worth noticing. ALIVE TO THE NEEDS. As a result of an investigation made by the New London Business Mens association, a movement is on foot in that city to acquire land and build some model cottages, the total cost of which would bring them within the means of wage-earners. This plan is being worked out very successfully in other cities, and there is no reason why there would not be a demand for such houses in New fondon— Commercial Record. This is a movement which should prove of immense value to many cities and Norwich would do well to endea- vor to grouse interest in such an un- dertaking. It indicates a recognition of conditions which are known to exist with the purpose in view of overcom- ing them and giving the tenants a rea- son for taking additional interest ‘n the city and in living. There is noth- ing which contributes to a ‘satisfied population like comfortable and attrac- tive homes, and in this connection ic is as important that they should be available to the wage earners as to others. The city which can offer good rents at reasonable flgures has an asset. of much.importance, of which every other eity hag a right to be envious, vet such envy should result, not in making the best of conditions, but in endeavoring to overcome them, as is the intention in New London. A city may have many advantages but if it does not of- fer desirable homes it neglects an im- portant attraction. EDITORIAL NOTES. The man on the corner says: It is not a difficult task to pick cut the hay fever patients. With the drought against them the raincoat makers used good judgment in calling off their strike. The picking of the pennant winners doesn't offer any great difficulty from the present showing by the teams. There is a question at the present just who controls the dogs of war in Mexico and how long such conditions will continue. The sample of rain which the weath- erman furnished was satistactory and several more would be even more ap- precated. The fixing of the date for the open- ing of the fall term of school marks the coming of the melancholy days for the future citizens. The Matteawan authorities are lock- ing the stable after the horse is stolen by telling how Thaw is to be treated when he is returned. The denial of the loan of $20,000,000 to Mexico by thé French is consistent with the requirements of that coun- try in the making of loans. President Wilson's message on Mex- ico can be expected to be short and to the point with proper refrain from any inflammable utterances. ‘When Canada inclines to letting Thaw dispose of his own case, it is taking 'a strange view of justice, un- warranted by the circumstances. Now that railroad .systems are pho- tographing at ball games those em- ployes who ask to attend funerals, the bleachers can be expected to develop into & masquerade. Mayor Gaynor of New York may not realize it at present, but the discard- ing of him as a candidate for reelec- tion by Tammany 18 only saving him from defeat later on. Thaw has been advised to seek nat- uralization in Canada, It might be a good thing for this country, but Can- ada must be credited with better judsg. ment thanp permitting any such addi- tion to its subjects. SUGGESTIONS FOR < THE HOUBEWIFE: p i © Always empty eut any water left befere fill a kettle. Very frequent: iy the flat taste of tea is eaused by using water that aiready has been For the suede ghoes, dip a spenge in gasoline and rub lightly, alwaye in one direction. Let the shoes dry in the wind outside, If the natural dull finlsh is wanted, brush over the worn parts with sand Remember to use gasoline where thers is no fire. and To remove rust from eel nickel wflun. cover the metal with sweet oll well rubbed into the rust stain, allow to remain two days, then rub well, théh amear again freely with oll; rub f{fito this a fine powder of unslacked lime (sifted through mus- lin) and polish with a soft cloth. To these housekeepers who have numeross h_floors, walks, etc., to Rave scrulibed they will discover this suggestlon_of value. The scrubbing process can be done with one-half the labor and better results—by clamp- ing an ordinary scrubbing brush into a mop handle. Marketing 1s learned by experience: all the advice and information that could be written would not count one bit if you do not test it by personal practice. Go to the market yourself, and see just what is offered vyou for the money you have. See that you get what you pay for, and see that it is the best of its kind. FOR .ROSE JARS. Gather & quantity of roses on fine, dry days. Remove the petals till you have obtained about half a Dpeck of them, Take a large china or glass bowl ‘and put a_handful of salt at the bottom, then a handful of rose petals, more salt, and so on till all the petals are used, scattering salt on top. Let this remain flve days, stirring and turning it twice a day. Add three ounces of corase powdered allspice and two ounce# of bruised stick cinnamon. This forms the stock. Allow it to re- main a week, turning it daily from bottom to top. Then .put into the permanent jar or bowl one ounce of allspice. and adding the stock layer by 1 r, sprinkle with the following mixture: One ounce of cloves, one ounces of coarse powdered allspice and powdered, some ginger root, half an ounce of anise seed, half a pond of freshly dried lavender flower, two ounce of anise seed, half a pound of any of the following essential oils— jessamine, rose, lavender, lemon, ver- bena or rosemary. RUBBER CHAIR TIPS Rubber tips for the dining room chairs will save the hardwood floors from constant scratching. The ups cost little and save both work and the floors. The dining room chairs are so likely to be pushed back in a way to mar the polish of the floor that these chairs in particular should be proteected with tips. DICTAT!’S‘EF FASHION. Chin ties are seen on some of the extreme summer hats. Watteau pleats are introduced om day and evening costumes. is a ma- a famous Brocaded crepe Trianon terial recently launched by manufacturer. A single band of colored velvet rib- bon is often the finish at the waist line on a simple lingerie gown of voile or marquisette, The maline ruffs whether two-tone or not, are used not only for the neck, but are extremely modish for trimming hats. The rather flat, many ribbed parasol, especially when covered with the nlain colored silk. is modish. Often the ribs are gilt tipped. Ratine coats three-quarter length, are rounded in front so as to disclose the gown beneath. They are fastened with buttons of fancy muotifs. Mantclets of cotton brocade and silk are displayed in a great varlety of styles. Hats of brilliantly colored straw are trimmed with plumage springing from a base of flowers. This combina- tion of feathers and flowers is very strong this seaso Tallored waists of wash silk are to be very popular this season. They are made with standing collars of the same material, or the neck, cut a little low Lin front, is finished with a round col- lar or an adaptation of the sailor. The summer evening gown is very colorful and Drecoil shows a charm- ing model of pale green brocade. A tunic of verdigris lace, shaped like a fish’s tail at the back draped at the front. contributes an unusual touc] to this gown. The shoulders are veile ith pale green chiffon bordered with ! single strand of brilliants. OLIVES FROM CHERRIES. Take the largest and firmest of Bing or Royal Anne cherries and, after washing them, put the stems and all into a glass quart jar. Add two table- spoonfuls of salt, four tablespoonfuls of vinegar and fill the jar with cold water. Seal tight, shake well and set away six weeks, when they will be ready for use. It might be well to nearly dissolve the salt in a little water before adding the vinegar. OCHER IN STARCH. To keep the color of ecru lace when washing it, add a little yellow ocher ofl paint ‘to the starch. Mix a small amount of the ocher with boiling water and add it to the starch, or to the last rinsing water if starch is not used. TO CLEAR SOUP. Many_housewives dislike to strain soup. This discovery may make it easier: Pour the soup, while hot, through a muslin cloth which has just been w‘\mg out of ice water. When it has all"been strained, heat again and serve. HEALTH AND BEAUTY. Water in which a bit of washing soda has been dissolved is restful for a bath for the feet. Hot salt water is equally refreshing, while a vigorous rubbing with alcohol will quickly re- lieve a burning sensation. The most neglected parts of the head are the back of the neck, right behind the lower part of the ear and that part of the cheek which lies directly in front of the ear. A cold cream bath in these partd of the anatomy will re- veal unbelievable quantities of dirt. In using vour brush every day don't for- got these purts of the neck and face.

To add to the gayety of the occasion it should have baked In it the silver symbols which denote various fortunes. NEEDLEWORK NOTES. New American patchwork designs show large pink tulips on a neutral ground. The latest napkin holders are of silver. The initial of the owner is cut from the metal. A clip behind secures the serviette. New nursery towels depict boating scenes, with quaint figures and ob- Jects all done in appropriate coloring and the very simplest of stitches. The ‘most up to date shoe buckles are of French brass filigree with set- tings in Bulggrian colors. The prices for these conceits range from $3.50 to $7 a pair, Loosely woven ramie linens are much used just now as a background for designs carried out in soft cottoms. Outlining French knots, some solid work and a few of eyelets are thrown into relief by rows of evenly spaced : darning. The open air girl is not merely to have a colored chine handkerchief tucked into tne breast pocket of her knitted or fieecy coat, but she must have a bow at her | throat to match it exactly in color. :These sets are made in the prettiest shades of blue, mauve and canary. content Children's clothing requires many buttonholes and if these are button- hole stitched many hours are passed at the task. will answer the same purpose and re- quire but very little time to sew them on. Make the loops fairly long. so that ‘the strain will not be too much on them. A novelty In a poreelain hatpin hold- er—indeed, it may be used for hold- ing flowers—comes from Australia. The container is guarded by figures of women in stylish garb, eigh or ten Inches high. The heads are swathed in turbans of crepe. tissue paper. So closely does the porcelain gown of the | figures resemble the turban in ap- pearance that it is difficult to detect the two materials. NEW SASHES. Sashes may be tied at the side of the back with short ends, or may hang from a flat bow directly in the middle of the back with long, side plaited ends, caught at the bottom by hem- stitched bands of ribbon or silk. Picot edged ribbon sashes have . tasseled ! ends. Small sashes tie directly in the middle of the front with three inch loops edged with five inch fringe. TOWELS &EANED, Dingy towels may frequently be re- | stored to normal whiteness by putting in a kettle of cold water, adding white soap shavings and lemon juice and letting come slowly to' a boil. Rinse in tepid water, then blue water and hang in the sun, HOME COLORS. A good rule to follow in furnishing the summer home, is to use in the liv- ing room with gray walls cretonnc showing an oyster gray, or blue and green background. In a room with either of these decorations the chairs and tables, if they are of wicker, could be stained a soft gray green. Rooms with their exposures to the west and south can be finished in blue and green, those to the east and north in yellow or pink. The walls of these rooms may be tinted or papered with gray, CONCERNING WOMEN. W. C. Brownell has given two new prizes to Vassar college in memory of his wife who was a graduate of the class of 1873.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR. i Wild Oats and Wild Carrots. Mr. Editor: I learn from today’s is- ySue of The Bulletin that Dr. Nicola (gave the closing lecture of ! y Gospel of Health series at the imantic camp ground, Friday. The lecture bore the significant title Wild Oats, the Sowing, (he Growing and the Mow- ng. Would that the doctor might come | to Norwich and lecture on Wild Car- rots, the growing of which is lllegal. | i {of The Man Who Talks, I find it was | Charles Dudley Warner who wrote i “The weeds grow up as If the devil was in them,” and The Man Who Talks {adds that no one has questioned the statement since it was penned. The Man Who Talks also quotes Celia THaxter as likening the weeds to a wild, vigorous, straggling army, full of health and strength and a most marvelous power of growth—a force quickly to be assailed if it is to be | overcome. Says The Man Who Talks, “The weeds in the garden strike me as na- ture’s loudest protest against laziness.” If that conclusion be true, the pro- test is now most vigorously proclaimed {in the abundant crop of wild or weed carrots on the premises of neglectful land owners in one of the most beau- tiful and thickly settled residential sections of our city. One must sow his *“wild oats” to show their “blossoms” on his face and to ruin his life; but wild carrots do their own sowing and often with the help of the winds and birds, injure not only the lazy or neglectful man’s land, but also spread their injurious work on the land of the man who would have it kept in proper condi- tlon. Blossoms like these should not be i&ssgclated with The Rose of New Eng- and. { When wild carrots once gain pos- session they are worse than the Turks to fight, and nothing short of Grecian valor and persistency can subdue them. A retired farmer told me recently that it took him five years of constant war- fare to rid his farm of the intruders. Now, if wild carrots do the “sowing” and the “growing,” won’t the lazy or neglectful man wake up and do the “mowing” ? C. | Norwich, Aug. 23, As Clear as Mud.
