S$ GOOD a piece of news as this city has *had for many a) day is Borough President McAneny’s assurance that Canal | street west of Broadway will be repaved with the Liverpool type of close fitting emall granite blocks eet in lasting foundation. 6 Better than the improvement of Canal street itself is the hint | ./ that the new pavement will fix a new standard for the rest of the| city. If the standard of stone pavement begins to climb, asphalt is likely to follow! Not many weeks ago Mayor Gaynor’s Committee on Pavements made a scathing report on the condition of New York streets: If the condition of a city's pavements is a fair gauge of its civiiization, as has been maintained by high authorities, New York must rank low in the acale. That ite pavements are an unmistakable evidence of provincialiem there can be no doubt, And after pointing out that New York's pavements are and al- sways have been very inferior to those of first-class cities in Europe. fhe Committee declared : Theres no city on earth that stands im greater need of good pavements than Manhattan, | * Pretty bard facte for e great metropolis to have to admit! | ‘That New York is waking up to its backwardness and casting | Wout to see whet can be done should be a solid satisfaction to| orerybody. The Pavement Committee was perfectly plain in steting the Seasons for the present condition, of New York streets: Very Uttle knowledge among our engineers of the most @pproved modern methods of paving ae carried on in places outside the United States; and Restrictive specifications, espectally as regarde asphalt, which have given all asphalt work in Manhattan to one monopoly ‘were most significant. \ Vi CIENTIFICALLY! € EASIEST INGE IN THE, WORLD | | | | \ ay ‘The apparent readiness of the-lty authorities to try in the case ot Canal street a first-class, tested European type of pavement is « hopeful sign that this particular kind of “provincielism” is wearing off, that the same epirit of thoroughness, open-mindednese and will- ingness to profit by the experience of other cities in building deep and firm may extend to our esphalt, and thet New York may presentiy have streets ex-emocth end permanent es those of London or Berlin. — + HELP FOR THE HARD HIT.

It !s breathing, the taking In of a ply of oxygen into the lungs, that 1s inimical to the growth, development and multiplication of the germs which bring about consump:ion.
