Ctrl ATin t Meat- UIwBt.r atreel. B.-ev.l f C.,b,.-Impr,T, Ms Serried ..w... r.r ca..-.. Much work Is being done in cities and towns which does not receive a proper amount of credit This Is be cause of the unobtrusive way In which It is done In many Instances. Tbe true vslue of such work would beat te recognized If it were suddenly to come to s stop, says Margaret Me net In Municipal News. Work of this nature is being done by the Town Improvement association of Montclatr, N. J., a pluco to make one draw a deep breath of satisfaction J la contemplating It as a residence. This association, organized In 1894, is wonting siong uie hubs mm . beginning except In what Is being done for children, the latter being regarded as an Important advance step. Other work has to do with matters which make life comfortable In a small town. And this Is the work the benefit of which would best be seen were It sud- denly to stop. It Is like that prosaic matter of geiflng three meals a day for the members of one's household. No ono thinks of talking much Bl)0,,t It, yet havoc would ensue if It were overlooked twenty-four hours. The ordinance providing for prompt removsl of snow rrom sidewaiKs was drafted and pushed through by the ef forts of tbe Montclalr Town Improve ment association, a work the good of which will not be denied by city folk who go anywhere In the country to spend Sunday and who have to innke an early train back Mouday morning regardless of a bllr.iunl overnight Street signs guiding the stranger to hia destination were secured by this same agency after efforts extending over four years. Through the work of tbe assorlatiou, assisted by Robert M. Doyd, assemblyman, tbe amended law providing for the collection of garbage and ashes in towns under certain con ditions was approved by the legisla ture. This Is a good measure, but Is one that needs still further attention, some difficulty having arisen tu the disposal of garbage. As tbe town is allowed to contract for only one year at a time, It Is a difficult matter to find any one willing to equip himself with horses and wsgous without a guaran tee for the work for a longer period thun twelve mouths. From the beginning the association has worked for Improvements in rail road service. Trains have been added from time to time and the schedule altered to suit the convenience of the public. The surroundings of the sta tion, too, hsve been Improved. Where once were heus of ashes and old lumber one now sees flower beds and grass. Instead of a plaza, dusty In summer and muddy In winter, there ore now good pavements. Another line of work pursued by the association Is the movement by the health inspector to place In tenement houses distinct rules, printed In Italian and Kngllsh, to assist tenants In living In a sanitary uianer. A sewing achoo! Is held every Saturday In the old II hrary building from 0:30 to 11:30. This ork was undertaken three years ago and has become ijulte systematized to day. From sixty to sixty-five children attend these classes. They commence wl,h ,,,e simplest patch, and last year the older girls made shirt waist suits for themselves. Last summer the school board assisted this work In a fluauolal way. Cooking classes have been Introduced and met with success. In order to make this work thorough ly practical only the plainest kind of cooking la taught. Following up this work of teaching the children to carry usefulness Into their own homes, the sasoclatlou later gave seed to tbe pupils of the Chest uut street school snd offered a prize for the best homo garden. In many caaet tbe children not only supplied their own families with vegetables, but baa Bitlliu ti ..It TV. ... i m one tnr I. vuuiiiib, 11(1 I UK I'.in ui Knuimi in wnion to nlaut her seed, she miwed It In an old dish pan which she kept on tup of a wood pile. An effort Is also proceeding to hsve the town authorities approve the New Jersey luw permitting the ap pointment of a tree plaiilliitf commis sion and thus to place all the trees of Moutclalr under central control.

Now Is Best Time to Tlkke. A well-kuown authority on Rheuma tism gives the readers of a large New York daily paper the following valu able, yet simpls and harmless pre scription, which anyoue oan easily prepare at home: Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half ounce ; Componnd Eargon, one ounce ; Compound Syrup Ssrtparllla. three ounces. Mix by shaking well in a bottle, and taks a teaspoonful after each meal and at bedtime. Hs states that the ingredients oan be obtained from any good prescription pharmaoy at small cost, and, being of vegetable extraction, are haruilets to take. This pleasant mixture, if taken regularly for a few days is said to overcome almost any case of Rheuma tism. The pin,aud swelling, if any, diminishes with eaoh dose, antil per manent results are obtained, and without iujuriug the Btomach. While there are many so-callsd Rheu matism remedies, patent medicines, etc., soma of which do give relief, fewreally give poimaneut results, and the above will no doubt, be greatly appreciated by many sufferers here at this time. Inquiry at the drug ttores of thit neighborhood elicits the information tTTat these drugs are harmless and can be bought separately, or the druggists here will mix the prescrip tion for our readers if asked to. 2-14 It A Little Too Far.
