l CLEANING THE TOWN , THE WORK OF A PROGRESSIVE CIVIC . IMPROVEMENT LEAGUE. Women of Knlnmaioo, Mlcli., Clenn the HtrvPtH ttud Reauttfy Yardu irl School' UruiindM Muny Oriiuulsa-J- tluiiH lu (lie l,iiiiriie. The work undertaken by the women of Kuliunsizoo, , Mich., to clean the (streets nnd beautify that town Is n:i example fur the women of every city, town and hamlet in the United States o follow. The good huusewfvcs of all these plae-fti Uee;) llieir own hoaitu clean. V.'hy can't they keep le streets clean? The succors with wl.eh thefre women have, cleaned up Kalamazoo mid are keeping it clean is worthy of emulation. U ought to result, and per haps It will, in the formation of other women's civic leagues in all puns of the country. Kulainanoo is a pretty clean town, but it is going to be the cleanest ever now that women are the captains of the "white wings," and the best of it is they're nut going to stop nt Just a little street sprinkling and dusting off a bit, hut they're going to plant trees and (lowers all over ami have vines trained lu cover unsightly buildings and make Utile spots of beauty out of old back yards and real parks out of big vacant lots. The Women's Civic ' Improvement league, whk-h Is engaged in the work of cleaning and beautifying Kalamavoo, was perfected a short time ago, and during its short existence it hnsiccom plished what many another league of long standing has failed to do, says tiie Brooklyn Kagle. In the very start it aroused public sentiment, and that is half the battle. The league was very popular and grew rapidly until now its membership reaches 400, and they come from some of the best and stron gest organizations of the city. But it Is not only the club women who are Interested in this municipal movement. for many prominent business and pro fessional men and city otlichtls are also Identified with it. Among its honorary members are the mayor nnd the city couuctlmen. But, while all these men folk are giving the organization their moral support and perhaps helping It on a little bit financially, you must un derstand that the women are the bosses nnd that it is through their efforts that the streets are being kept so spick and span. While the women from the best fnm Hies of the eiry are the leaders of the league, It Is by no menus a class or ganlzation. As' an evidence of this a colored women's organization, known as the Celery City club, has joined the civic society. This colored women's club has been doing work among the colored population of the town that has bwn surprising everybody, so when the present street cleaning movement was first talked about the colored women sent In word that they should be glad to co-operate with the new or ganization, nnd their services were readily accepted. The Women's Civic Improvement league was organized In a most busi nesslike in f liner. Knch ward chairman has as assistants members of a sub committee of five women. Among the organizations that comprise the league are the Ladies' Library association, the People's Church society, delegates of the Daughters of the American Itev olution, Celery City club, Methodist Pastors' union. Twentieth Century club, St. Luke's guild. Woman's Christian Temperance union and the Hebrew Ladles' Benevolent association. The leaders of the league believe that every one in the community should help in this work of cleaning and beau tifylng the town, nnd they have there fore asked the school children to do all they can in the good cause. Efforts will be made to have the school grounds places of beauty. Trees and plants arc to be set out in the school yards, and window gardening will be enrournged. A great deal of work will also be done a the parks, and flowers will bToom in all parts of the town. But In the meantime sanitary condl tioDS are not to be neglected. In this - connection Mrs. Crane, who organized the league, will prove invaluable, as her efforts In the line of meat nnd milk inspection are well known nil over the ntate of Michigan. She has been so . successful in her endeavors in this dl- . reetion tiint she has' had hills passed lu the state legislature In favor of her uncthods, and the work has been so well thought of that It has been taken up In Indiana and other states. Clean liness In all things that appertain to food has been Mrs. Crane's chief con cern for several years past. The city council signed n contract with the Women's Civic Improvement league for the cleaning of the thor oughfares in the business section of Kalamazoo, and the women have had complete charge of the work. Men nre kept constantly at work armed with rn-l. cans, brooms, hoes nnd scrapers. The dirt Is placed In sacks nnd at the ' end of the day is removed. Once each : week the streets are thoroughly flush j cd by the fire department. j To aid in keeping the highways tidy , the Ieagi.!-- has placed nt rtv.pKMii nuer- -mis on pules along the streets metal; boxes of bright aluminium color nnd plainly marked as receptacles for waste material of nil kinds. Hound to Grow. There is a small town in Illinois that' hoB the proper spirit nnd Is bound to grow and prosper. Itecently Its enter prising citizens orgnnlzed ft board of trade and sent out Inducements to cap italists to Invest there. It is alwnys a hopeful sign when smell communities tnke up the question of home improve ment on industrlnl linen, for that Is th jort of energy that wins wealth. COSSACKS SWIMMING THEIR HORSES ACROSS A RIVER. The Cossacks before the beginning of the present war were hailed as veritable terrors. They have not lived up to their reputation, but they have had many difficulties as for instance, incompetent leadership to contend against. It cannot be denied that they are willing, and even swollen rivers offer no obstacle to these rough riders, as may be seen by the illustration, Larger Sleeping Car Berths. One of the few railroad companies that owns and operates the sleeping cars in service on Its lines, is the Chi cago, Milwaukee & St. Paul. The sleeping cars on this line were formerly Pullman cars, operated by the Pullman Company, but for a dozen years past the railway company has owned and operated the sleeping car equipment. In building its sleeping cars, a departure from the old standard pattern of cars has been made to the ex tent of adding about six inches to the width and height of the sleepers. This perniits of wider and higher berths. Length has also been added to berths, so that comfort is found In them which is lacking in ordinary sleeping cars. These large cars are In service on practically all of the lines of the St. Paul road, and are very popular with the traveling public. HOME IMPROVEMENT.

How to Beautify n Fence With Flow er nnd Vlnea, ' In considering the grounds of a coun try home one feature is only too often neglected namely, the fence, says the Brooklyn Kagle. The fence, far from being n detraction, as It is so frequent- ' ly, to the beauty of the place, may be made one of its chief attractions. The grounds of a plnln little cottage of sub urban Boston still haunts the writer, though seen many yours ago. It was a low wall of graystone, the top of which wus completely covered with nasturtiums. All summer long this wall was a mass of brilliant bloom nnd a Joy to every passerby. No matter Low uncompromisingly ugly the fence Is, It may with the exercise of artistic taste be transformed into a thing of beauty. A picket fence Is nbout ns difficult a subject in this respect ns It is possible to have, yet the owner of a country home In New York state has made hers the envy of all her neighbors. 'This Is what she did to bring nbout the de sired end: At the base of the fence along Its entire length the ground was spaded and set with a variety of plants, large and smnll, the selection being mndo with a view of keeping something blooming the season through. About six inches from the top the In side of the fence wns fitted with bonnl shelves, and on these were placed at intervals jars of plants, including ge raniums, begonias, verbenas and other house plants, as well as ferns. Vines should not he overlooked as aids in beautifying the fence. For back yard fences the prime old fash ioned hollyhocks, when set lu close rows, become a highly decorative feature.

The Chicago Tree Planting society was organized recently to plant trees In the streets of Chicago. With the election of otlicers it was announced that one of the first works the society would undertake would be a fight on the gas nnd smoke nuisance, to be urged along new lines. Then will come the planting of trees in the slum districts, the distribution of literature that will educate the peo ple In tree planting nnd the starting of a movement to have the care nnd some times the planting of trees In streets placed In the hands of the park bonnls. "Chlrapo has practically 1,100 miles of treeless streets," said (Jeoree E. nooker, the secretary of Hih organiza tion, "nnd the planting of trees in them is nn immense task. Gas and smoke ! are the greatest enemies of tree growth wo have. One of our first duties will j be to get nfter the smoke nuisance Many thousand pamphlets telling the j kinds of trees that will grow here and ; how to care for them, as well an urging j their planting, are to be circulated In nn effort to get people to plant trees In front of their homes. Oliicers of I Improvement associations are to be . asked to co-operate with the society In ' the tree plantlne plans, and resident of the Mine block will be nrged to unite In their tree planting efforts no ns to secure uniformity.
