CLEANING OFSTREETS
A
What the Women of Kalamazoo,
Mich., Have Accomplished.

; -
'Woman's Cfvlo Improvement Lesgue
i Took Up Problem and Proved It
I Could Ba Solved How Streets Were
' Fluihed Cans Provided For Rubbish.
i Writing on "Charities and Com
mons," Caroline Bartlett Crane gives
' an account of what has been done by
the Women's Civic Improvement
' league In Kalamazoo, Mich., a city of
'! 82,000 population, to prove that It does
not cost too much to have clean streets,
j says the Philadelphia Public ledger.
yi "We studied the matter of street
cleaning as well as we could, and then
we asked for and received permission
? from the city council to tuke chnrgo of
r blocks of the main business street
for three months. Then we Introduced
. the Waring system, the salient feu
': tures of which are:
' "First. Sweeping the pavements by
fcand with push brooms and collecting the
dirt Into piles.
"Second. Immediately taking up each
pile of dirt and depositing- It, with the
jgelp of a small hand broom and shovel,
into a bag suspended upon a two wheeled
bag carrier, which the sweeper puahea
About with him.
1 "Third. Tying the bags when filled and
depositing them In convenient places In
t alleys or along the street, to be removed
by wagon.
"Fourth. The 'orderly' or 'patrol'
system, by which each man Is given a
definite portion ot the street to keep clean
and Is held responsible for this portion,
"Fifth. A white uniform (of at least
white coat and hat or helmet) and a wa
1 terproof outfit for rainy days.
"Sixth. Flushing the streets at stated
Intervals once a week In the absence of
drenching rains.
: "We secured carts, brooms, uniforms
; for the men, and we made three neat
galvanized Iron street cans, aluminium
f painted and Inscribed, 'For' Waste Pa-
per, Fruit Skins, etc. We also succeed-
d In getting the council to pass an
antisplttlng ordinance. We took pho
nographs of all the filthy downtown
' '', alleys and of the hideous refnse dumps
i which disfigured our naturally beautl
: i ful river banks.
"On the appointed day we began all
I along the line at once. The men be
'' gan to seek, the pavement, and after
j they found It the Are department came
i ont at S o'clock In the mornlmt with
some secondhand hose and flushed the
streets under the direction of the chair
man of the women's committee. Dif
ferent ways of flushing were tried on
at successive mornings until tne ngm
I way was found flushing without noz
lie from the middle of the street each
: way and either bagging the storm
' sewer entrances or stationing men
with hoes to keep the coarser dirt from
entering. Of course the best way to
j flush is with a patent street flushing
I machine which works with conipress
j j ed air and which can be charged with
i air no ncu aa nain v mj

h "Our very attractive cans were
f placed at Intervals on poles along the
streets, and boys from our Junior
league distributed thousands of little
dodgers like this:
"PLEASE!

do not spit on the aldewulks or In the
gratings or anywhere but In the gutter.
"Now, please don't throw this In th
street!
"Our alley pictures were sent to the
tenants or the owners, sometimes to
the health officer, with the result that
the alleys were cleaned up like magic
and have been kept fairly clean ever
since.
'The experlmeut was an entire suc
cess. The street was clean, people
liked It, visitors commented on It, mer
chants said the lack of dust in their
stores was most noticeable, and we did
it with no more cost to the city than
the old dirty way namely, $5 a day.
"Then the street commissioner un
dertook to keep the street as clean as
we did, but without the Waring sys
tem. It cost him $8.00 a day.
"The league made to the city's com
mittee on streets and bridges an ex
haustive report showing the need of
really clean streets throughout the
raved district and demonstrating the
superiority of the Waring system and
its relative cheapness. We succeeded
in getting the Waring system Inaugu
rated on three miles of pavement"

I What Came of a Kiss, j
Original.
August had come. The musical sea
son was at its height The grasshop
per chirped all the morning, the locust
ang In the afternoon, while the tree
tond was preparing for an engagement
evenings.
Wlthlu the drooping boughs of a cop
per beech hung a hammock, and in
the hammock lay a girl. There waa
not a bit of color In her attire, from
tlie luce about her neck to her white
shoes. She had promised him a game.
but it was very hot and Instead of j
going on to the grounds her steps had
been deflected to tho hammock.
What's that triangulating on the
tennis court? White trousers like a
pair of dividers give an appearance of
trlangulation. The owner of the
trousers Is lazily dancing a tennis ball
on a racket. He wonders why she
doesn't come. Presently he strolls to
ward the house to look for her. He
doesn't find her on the porch, so be en
ters the hall and calls to her. No an
swer, lie returns to the porch and
stands looking out at anything, every
thing, nothing. Then he catches sight
of something white moving under the
branches of the copper beech. He tri
angulates there, moving with more
animation than before, and, lifting a
bough, looks under the green roof. She
sleeps. Intent on the lovely tight be
fore him, it doesn't occur to him that
the vibrations had stopped rather sud
denly. So still Is she that life is evi
dent only by the rising and falling of
her bosom. The mouth Is In an admira
ble position to be kissed, the head
thrown back and partly over the ham
mock's aide. The birds above sing
lore songs to one another; the Insects
on the lawn give a fantasia In the
same strain. The man well, the man
stoops and kisses the girl.
She does not awaken, and be kisses
her again.
Thrice he kisses her, and the third
time she moves. Then after a bit she
opens her eyes and blinks at him.
"Why, where did you come from?"
"From the tennis court, where you
were to have Joined me."
"It's too hot for tennis."
"I think so too. Much pleasanter
here. I might have won a pair of
gloves."
"Ton wouldn't do that"
"WhyT"
"Because you are a gentleman."
"Would you never have forgiven
mer
"Never that Is, unless we had been
engaged."
He thought a moment then said,
"There waa no temptation under the
circumstances"
No temptation 1 How complimen
tary r
"I mean that knowing I would Incur
your displeasure If I kissed you I
wouldn't think of doing so."
"Ob!"
He was sitting on a wicker chair be
side her hammering the gronnd with
his racket absently.
What are you thinking about?" she
asked.
I ouce kissed a girl In a hammock,"
ho said, "and I wasn't engaged to her
either. She was asleep, Just as you
were. I kissed her three times, and
the third time she awoke. She knew
very well I'd kissed her."
"What did she do?"
"She didn't do anything."
"And whut did you do?"
"I didn't do anything either at the
time. But that evening it was moon
light. She went to sleep on the wicker
lounge on the porch and well, I kiss
ed her again."
It was now her turn to do the think
ing.
i suppose," she said presently, "that
so long as yoa hsd kissed her once be
fore"
"Three times."
'It didn't make so much difference
about the fourth kiss that is, from
you and since she was asleep It
wasn't her fault anyway."
"If yon should go to sleep on the
wicker lounge on die porch tonight and
1 should kiss you, you wouldn't be to
blame, would you?"
"Certainly not. But you?"
"Oh, maybe I'd be to blame, but
since you didn't know anything aboat
It there wouldn't be any barm done.
"I don't know about that"
The moon shone down on a corner
of the porch covered with wistaria, or.
rather, the moon shone on the wistaria
while the comer was In deep shadow.
This distinction may seem trivial, but
It is not In this case, for on a wicker
lounge In the corner a girl lay asleep.
True, one tiny ray struggling through
the vine touched her lips. He waa art
ting beside her. This time he was la

"Asleep T" be asked la low toeve.
There was no reply.
He brat forward and kissed her.
She awoke.

PUSH OREGON
TO
THE FRONT
And Tell Our Eastern Friends nil
About the Superior Oppor
tunities) W Posweas.
On April last the Oregon lan pub
lished a special industrial edition do
voted exclusively to the exploitation of
Oregon. It probably contained more
special and miscellaneous Information
about Oregon than any one publica
tion that has ever been issued. It is
peculiarly useful and valuable to the
home seeker, because it gives the lat
est aud most valuable information
about so many different subjects that
the homeseeker is naturally interested
in. Almost every department of indus
try is specialized and both descriptive
and statistical information of a highly
valuable character ia given exteusively
aud.in entertaining form.
Residents of Oregon who know its
advantages as compared with the con
gested and depleted East, and who
still have friends back there whom
tiiey would like to see here enjoying
the good things of this favored state
can aid in a splendid work now without
oost and very little effort If you
think your friend would be interested
in knowing more about Oregon and
might eventually become a valuable
cltlsen, send his name and address to
the general passenger agent of the
Oregon Railway and Navigation Com
pany or the Southern Pacific at Port
land, and copy of this special edition
with a complete summary of the sever
al subjects treated, carefully indexed,
will be mailed to him promptly. In
this manner yoa may be the means
not only of doing your friend a good
turn, but of helping to stimulate the
growth and prosperity of Oregon.
Don't forget that commencing Sep
tember 1st and continuing daily for
two months, tickets will be on sale at
almost every railroad station in the
Eaat to all point in Oregon and the
Northwest at what baa come to be
popolarly known as "oolonist rates."
These rates are the obeapest genera'
long distance rates ever established
and enable one to reach Oregon from
any part of the United States at but
trifle more than one oent a mile.
They are the greatest incentive to col
onization and progressive home build
ing of any known agenoy, and if the
restless, dissatisfied resident of he
East is made to know before hand the
advantages he can enjoy here, the
problem is solved, and the star of em
pire will continue to move steadily
westward.
Now ia the time to spread the gospel
of Oregon, so that it may bo beard
and heeded by the time rates go into
effect. Bend one name, or two, or a
dozen, and yoa will be exerting a
worthy influence toward the opbuild
log of cor state. Send them to vour
nearest Southern Pacific agent or to
Win, McMurray, General Pamengor
Agent, Portland. Oregon.

tory system of the past The Intro
duction of bltullthlc and other modern
paving materials baa solved the prob
lem of securing smooth and durable
highways.
Beginning with suburban drives, this
system of modern roadbeds will extend
from town to town In thickly settled
sections f the country, and the bene
fits from th same will be shared by
the farmer as well as those who ride
or drive for pleasure. Good roads are

American people have been alow to

Need of Better Country Roads.
At a meeting of the chamber of com
merce, Jamestown, N. Y., Luis Jack
son, Industrial commissioner of the
Erie railroad, recently spoke on the
great physical Improvements In every
line of Industry and referred particu
larly to tho cost of hauling crops by
teams from farms to railroad stations.
Mr. Jackson cave fncts and figures
along Oils line secured from duta pub
lished by the department of agricul
ture, by which be showed that the av
erage cost of team buul on twenty
three different kinds of agricultural
products w.'m 11 cents per 100 pounds,
and the average cost per ton mile 2.1
cents. These figures he thought em
phasised the necessity for better roads.
