That the city water board will buy the Mount Tabor water . . plant at Its meeting tomorrow afternoon la gener ally believed on the Bast Sid. And that Mr. Arthur will g-et a good price for his plant la not doubted. That there la a wide diversity of opinion among wall Informed East Sidera as to the true value of the Mount Tabor water works, can be established by a small amount of Inquiry. A well known resident ever there, who usually haa hla eysa open when anything municipal la going on, while discussing the water altuation on the Seat aide, said: The water board cannot axerclse too muoh earo In taking over . those Inde pendent water systems that supply a number of Bast Bide suburbs. All agree' that It la proper for the board to pur chase these plants, aa the territory sup plied by them la oovered by the olty water system. But no haphazard should be Indulged in when It comes to ascertaining their value. St notice that the foreman of the pfpelaying department on the Beat Side for Use water company haa completed an examination -of the oondltlon of the plant ei the Mount Tabor Water com pany, and that hia report will be made the basis of negotiations with Mr." Ar thur, the owner of the plant, for acquir ing It probably at an early date. It la generally supposed that Mr. Arthur would like to have the city take hie plant eft hla hands, now that the terri tory supplied by him haa oome -into the olty. There la a smsll plant near Wood lawn, another at Piedmont and one out at Woodstock, wboee patrons will soon be supplied with Bull Run, Naturally the ewaeea of these independent systems will want the elty to buy thorn out. and It la right that the elty should do so. only It must go alow. The ownere are very apt to have aa Inflated idea of the value of their property, with the result that tA city might soon find Itself loaded up with a let ef valueless old Junk, la the shape of water towers, old engines and pumps. No doubt a lot of the mains and servloe pipe of these sub urban plants are worn out and will soon have to be taken up and renewed." Edward Gray, foreman ef the pipe laying department, who made the exam ination of the oondltlon. of the Mount Tabor plant, reported something over II miles of pipe ranging down from 4 tneh to H-lnoh pipe. On Hlbbard street, where the Mount Tabor oar lineruns. the mains were found to have been" badly Injured by eleotrolysls. J. M. Arthur took the Meant Tabor plant years ago. when It waa bankrupt, and bought all the smaller companies la the surrounding district and supplied them all front one pumping station. He la said to have made It a paying propo sition from the start. Bull Run is now balng sold to the Mount Tabor company, its owe pumping station not having ca pacity sufficient to aupply the district .tlon gMolaUst. Inventor of the rag less uonsnpsnon ware.

Second Street (mostly large sizes) $1.49 i Are You a Good Neighbor? This should be a question of some Im portance to every woman who bee neighbors and who has not? To be really good neighbor, requires some thought and perhaps little sac rifle, but the result Is worth your trouble. If you are just starting fti house keeping be sure thst you are starting In right In this regard. The one thing sb eolutely essential to success as a model neighbor la not to be an everlasting borrower nothing le quite so deaden ing to all friendly Intereouree as the ''borrowing" habit unless It Is the "never-pay-back" habit, which la fatal. Of cousae It la aomettmee necessary to borrow, and when that time arrives you will find your nelghbore ready to lend. If they are the right eort and you have not abused your privileges in, this direction, but e good rule is to be quits sure that you could not possibly get along without a thing before you aend to your neighbors for It. When you move Into a new neighbor hood curb your curiosity or you will be sure to be unpopular it la natural that you should wonder why Mrs Smith, who ltvee across the street, never goes to see the woman who live, on the oorner. and always takee the oppoalts aide of the walk. It ta not sbsolufely necessary thst you should have your curiosity satisfied you VjU soon hear both sides of ths story, nd on your attitude win depend tne decision on whether or not you fulfill the qualifica tions. If you hsve tact enough not to take aides end still remain friends with both, then you are one of thoaa rare women a good neighbor. What volumee might be written on the faults or other people's children: how hard It la not to take pert In their management and yet our common sense tells us thst such a course would end many pleasant friendships end do no good In the end. Perhaps ths only le gitimate relief ror the woman who wants to give her neighbor advice en child management la to start a moth ers' club In the neighborhood, and even then great diplomacy would be neces sary, aa mother rove la keen to resent fault-finding with her children So tn, best and safest way I to maintain a autral attitude end to remember that children ere a good deal alike "un der the skin."
