I NOTES ANDJOMMENTS :
J By Old Man Smith
TROLLEY A OIVILIZER.
Many people remember the old horse
car Una on Firt Street, Portland,
whan It wat the only line In the
city. By and bya cam the ataaiB
motor, tb cable car aad the trolley.
With tha trolley comet city extension,
cheap honiea for workingmen and
paolona conulry bomea for boalnea
mea. Without iwolal planning fur
social, moral, orrellglou affect the
trolley I distinct gain to civiliza
tlon. The crowded city la always
fceterlni aore on the body politic
pjvsrly. Tic and orlnie are iutiniate
ly aaaoclated with narrow street,
" dark alley, cheap boarding house
and the beer aalooa. Hot the trolley
U tliluniug out the heart of the city
aud flttiug op the suburbs. Working.
Mn own their owu home, (o back
and forth to their labor every day,
with houeat pride and self reapect that
count on Ilia rig-tit aide of the serial
lsdger. And It 1 helping to restrict
the 110(111.
It would l a great gaiu '" civili
tat ion to have a network of trolley
Hue I ranching out the center
of population In til direction. No
greater opportunity exist for that
radical philanthropy which promise,
to help other at the same time stimu
lating other to lidp thennolvc.
How would it wort fur our million
alr to turn their attention in a
measure from endowing college to
endowing street car !!,
LITTLE KlOUKTS.
What a wenlth ol mritiiitiK may be
found hidden a war In tingle word
The aim was called tl y of the
day. The little flower wo call the
daisy bore a linking rritemhlaiice to
the orb in the eky no it wan called the
eye of day or the ,day't eye which in
time wat shortened to dairy.
Advtralty htg Its uses. The finan
cial panic called down many a high
flyer and taught many to seek safe
landing before getting entirely out
of light Ballooning it alwayt dan
gerous. The next time any of our business
men want to puzzle their customer
let tliftp try the following: Two
boyt went ont to tell SO applet, divid
ing the number 'equally between them
and brought home 25 cents. The next
dty one boy wit tick and the other
took ont the AO applet telling firat
three for one oent and then two for
oent end brongbt'back only 34 cents.
What became of the one ont 1
Pig killing time inggeata the odd
distinction peculiar to the Englith
langoage by which the animal change
its name at toon at the breath it out
of itt body. The 01 become) beef
the tktep become mutton and tb hog
becomes pork. The old man will gie
a braat button to the Brtt one who
will tell the reaaon why.
This lithe naoal time for the church
at to make special effort to make
bad people good, good people better
and better people better ttllL Some
criticize revivals and tome revivals
tr to be criticized but while man is
man the tick will need healing, the
weak need strengthening, the lazy
need atimalating and the dead either
a returrectlon or a decent burial.
Appearance are deceitful. A lady
riding out in her bnggy dressed in
silks and satins with a gold watch
chain heavy enough to tie op the dog,
iiiTiied the old man to tea and then
went to the nwtre.it neighbor to bor
row the tea. the home looked an if a
wholesale borrowing wa nfceeaary to
make the houee tally with the afreet
display.
A hoarding houan matron is in the
habit of putting on an expensive seal
tkiu sac que over her dirty grray
cotton dres when ahe goes down street
to purchase htr supplies. 1 1 J mk-i ley
is uot con Hiied to religion ehanis,
The world owe every wan a liTing
hut i; require some lively rustling
to mule lief pay interest 011 the ob
ligation. Fetter get 111 and dig.
If old Man Smith tread on some
body' corn he is orry but he'
mighty glad of if."
