Huge irrigation works, of which the great Nahrwan Canal, and its counterpart, the Uljail, are still traceable, brought the waters of the TigrlB to the fields of grain, two thousand years ago. Hut these and other great works perished and were swallowed up in the shifting Bands long centuries Blnce.

If llw Filled liX Jyi Y77v't Committionrt Havo Eliminated , Par titan Politics and Have Rait Standard of Publio Moral A Re port Juat latued by Mayor-Director. The results of tbe first complete da cat year of commission government Id Trenton are set fortb In a reKrt made public by Frederick V. Donnelly, mayor-director of public affairs in tbat city, HbowIiiB great improvements ef. fee ted In every department of tbe city's government and substantial gains in economy and elilclent business admin istration sburn of tbe discord of party politics. Trenton was one of tbe Hist cities to adopt tbe commission form of government in tbe east, and otber New Jersey cities buve slm-e adopted ft. "'Tbe results obtained in Trenton have clearly demonstrated beyond tbe dreams of bis stuuncbest supporters tbe superiority of tbe new system.' says Mayor Donnelly In his report "Both iu economy and eftVieney tbe city bus advanced wftb rapid strides. The cost of administering tbe govern ment for tbe last tiscal yeur was $4,Ii77 less than during tbe preceding year; tbe ra tables of the city were increased 3.70 per cent during the year; tbe bond ed debt of tbe city was decreased more than 3.5 per cent, tbe tax rate for tbe first fiscal year was reduced 2 cents on each $100 uf valuation. "In connection wltb tbe tax rates It is Interesting to note tbat for tUree years preceding tbe adoption of the commission form of government the rate had been advancing at an average Increase of seventeen points a year. "Tbe revenue deficit of $:J7.8o8 tbut existed at tbe close of tbe fiscal year of 1012 wus reduced to $12.3m. When tbe board of commissioners took of fice the revenue deficit wns $1.807. The apparent necessity to Issue bonds at tbat time to fund tbe revenue dotlclt has disappeared, and it Is reasonable to suppose that at the close of the cur rent fiscal year tbe revenue deficit will have been entirely wiped out and the city will have a revenue surplus. "Tbls year the city has not been obliged to negotiate any temporary loans, an unprecedented condition, as It has always been the custom to bor row about $2r0,oO0 for maintenance and operating expenses pending the collection of anticipated taxes. "The value of fixed property owned by tbe city la $U.8a:i.i:to, The city now has financial statements kept on a uaKi.t of scientific and businesslike ac curacy and system. The income for tbe year ending Feb. 2M, H)H. was $2(1 000 more than expenses. Tbe expenses for the last four years prior to com mission government had Increased an nually nt an average rate of $50,000. Expense of tbe last year Immediately prior to commission government's adop tion, showed $102,000 Increase, while the first year of commission govern ment showed a decrease of over $1,000 under the prior year." Under the beading. "Business Super sedes politics." tbe report says: "To enumerate tbe many Improve ments and accomplishments tbat have been wltmysed In Trenton under coin mission government administration, islde from the financial curtailments, would be borderlng-on tbe Impossible. We have wit 'teased the destruction of partisan poll' Ics In tbe deliberations of our governing IhxI.v. not one partisan vote having been taken during tbe two years of Its existence, and this despite the fact th'it the commission comprises three Democrats and two Itepuhllcans. "During our administration we will erect and put Into operation a filtration plant costing approximately $.VK),OO0 and will have plans designed and prob ably commence actual work on the construction of a sewage disposal plant and garbage Incinerating plant, the latter to supersede our present cre matory. We have also provided for two new liru stations, twenty-five addi tional policemen, improved streets hot ter lighting facilities. Increased park territory, harbor facilities and many other Improvements. We have also ar ranged to increase our parking spaces and recreation centers.

Or rather, at least. In real lire. And therefore, by way of explanation, let it be known that Shifty Hill is a character of fiction, a circus pro prietor who has wandered through many and many a pat;e of magazine adventure, usually disastrous lo him self. And in the announcement of his arrival, It is reiilly the announce' ment or the ui rival of his creator, Courtney Ityley Cooper, an author who at 27 lias contributed to nearly forty magazines and motion picture companies, is a member of the Au thors' League of America aifd a con sulting editor of the Photoplay Clear ing House or New York. And just as Shifty Hill's life Is that of the circus, so is the life of Court ney Ityley Cooper, for he Is hero to toll or the coming of the Sells-Ploto ' Circus and lltiffalo Bill (himself I, due for an engagement in this eity Tuesday, .May 12. i fit's a combination this year tiiat's going to be pretty hard to beat oi j even tic," .Mr, Cooper said, i "Besides' the enlarged circus, there is llulTalo Hill himself, both lu the parade and in the performance, where he pre- J sents a new spectacle entitled 'War-' path.' The theme? It's a good one, the depiction of the progress of this country from the time of the frontier to the present day. Xatur ally there'll be pienly of Indians and' cowboys and riders and ropers ann other personalities Indicative of Ihe old west. As to tho circus itself, we've got about eveiy feature pos sible, even to the forty clowns. : "Incidentally you can get an Im pression of it all from the parade at IU::!0 o'clo.'k t lit? morning of the' show. That'll give you an idea. Ily the way, the great procession is to be led by Buffalo Hill himself, as a spo- ' clal honor to the city. Later the famous scout will hold a reception for children at tbe show grounds. Hy the way, tho price will remain the same as ever, L'.'t cents, with scats for 1-l.iHHI persons." ' N'OIUIDY SI'Altl-.l). French military authorities are ex perimenting with the first armored army aeroplane, equipped witli a ma chine gun mounted over the engine. Bullet-proof plates of hardened steel protect the working parts of the aero plane, and a V-shriped shield screens both the gunner and the ammunition. The pilot is seated behind the gunner, and the gun is mounted high enough to eliminate any possibility of hitting the propeller when it is fired. From the May Popular Mechanics Magazine. Helinble Foley's Honey and Tar, Compound. j It is the quality of Foley's Honey : and Tar Compound that makes it I such a ivli.;ble medicine. For coughs, colds, croup, whooping cough, bron-; ehial and lu grippe coughs, which i "hang on" in the spring and weaken ; the system, it has no equal. It also gives prompt and definite results for hoarseness, tickling throat, and stuffy, wheezy breathing. Mrs. Iienj. i W, Soavey, West Mills, Me, says: j "Let me tell you how much 1 think of i Foley's Honey and Tar Compound as a family cough syrup. It is particu larly valuable as a small quantity j 1'..ls tlie effect desired, and it con- j tains no opiates. 1 consider it the ! best cough syrup wo have ever used." j And Thus. Verron, Hancock, Midi., ! says: "Foley s Honey and Tar lias always proven effective, quickly re lieving tickling throat, and stoppin tile cough witli no bad after effects.
