I!y Edward II. Hamilton vpn ial iliMiHicb to '-'Mm Kxainliier1') Seattle, Julv 2:1. While booster ex cursions tire mute the thing these days. I unuld 'siiLvett that San Francisco (jet up an excursion to tie headed by Mayor Knlih and to include the Super visors, the Hoard of Works, the City Kniiiiiecr. the Hoard of State Harbor Commissioners with their engineer, the Playgrounds Commission 'and cer tain assorted citizens from the im- nrovement clubs and associations and such civic societies as the specially interested in putting San Francisco a little ahead of her times in the way of material improvements. Such an exclusion would not have to travel fur afield to get some eye open ers that would shake the members out of any conceited sett-complacency with which they may have started the trip. Ihey needn't go to New York or Chi cago or any of the great population centers of the land, but just to some of the cities of our own coast. For instance, I'd like to note the ex pressions on the faces of the party when they came out of the ilarriman system depot here in Seattle and saw tiie pavement sprcad'out before them in eonttast to the mixture of dirt and irregularity that greets the visitor'who steps out of the Ferry depot and enters upon San Francisco. Why Not For I's? Here are 'wide snares of brick tave- nient.'rlean as a whistle, even, lasting, nective. the natural imiury would be: "Why can't we have such pavement at the entrance to San Francisco in stead of the rough basalt blocks dumped on sand that make the Embar endero unsightly and inefficient?" l'erhaps the Harbor Comissioners could answer that question. Perhaps they think present conditions are good enough. Perhaps they are willing to remain in a backwoods state of devel opment. Hut if they'd come up here and see, they d hardly have an excuse for keeping the EmbHreadero as it is. Now Seattle has 1G5 miles of caved streets-paved with this smooth brick pavement that seems so ilemrable for medium traffic conditions; with asphalt or with cement or stone blocks. The cement and stone blocks are not rough, irregular shapes, dumped down recklessly on sand to be dusty in sum mer and muddy in winter, as are our basalt block streets, but these blocks are shaved to a nicety and then laid on a nrm foundation of concrete or other material, bound and erouted so the surface is almost as smooth as asphalt. vv nen cleaned these streets do not at once spit up more mud or dust to foul themselves as so many of our streets do. Has Lasted Eighteen Years As to the durability of the brick paving, I am told that the oldest pave ment of this sort has been down eight een years in a section where it has withstood the heaviest teaming and general irainc. u is now getting worn and runnh and is to lib reiiluced or re. mired by turning the bricks over and xpnsing theirumler surface, when it a expected to last at least another cle 'iido. 1 was once tohl thiit'we luut not lun able to develop irnod imviniT hi iek in California and that it was too exnen. sive to brinis the bricks from Kenttln Hill Bltrelv a imvement that uill luat with one turning over a matter of thirty years can't be a sneciallv exnen. sive pavement, as compared with Mar ki t street, for instance always under I cftir. I ve been over a iooil nnvti.m of vu. uttle's liio miles of paved streets, and they certainly are such as to make a an Franciscan Miwh uml utum when he thinks of the hack the vilhite roiulilinns nrovuilinn- nn'Ht of the streets of his own hnlnuftn1 city. Slirelv lit V Slll'trestCfl pvcorcioniufu would lind much of instruction and in- lerest in heattle s solution of the street paving and cleaning -problem. Ai d there would be much fur our Playgrounds Commission to ponder over. 'Ihey probably think they are doing very well with their little nlav- spaces. Hut here in Seattle, with far less population and much less conges tion than we have in San Francisco, there are twelve big playgrounds now in operation, equipped with steel ap paratus and under supervision. Then there are four other spaces used as athletic fields, nmi four m .!.. grounds in process of imnrovpmnnt f ield houses and gymnasiums for win ter work are now developing. The general eiuimiient of the present playgrounds includes the usual swings, rings, etc., tennis courts, ball grounds, running tracks and wading pools for children. Swimming Place for Public And then, over on the sound is a public swimming place. 1 here.bathing suits, towels and soap, with a place to undress and dress, can be had for a nominal charge. Everything is clean, modern, sale. On special occasions thousands of people take their salt water dips here, and I am told acci dents are practically unknown, so good is the supervision. w It i in contemplation to estaeblish a similar public bathing establishment on i.aKe wasiiiiitgon lor fresh water swimming. So our Playgrounds Com mission might be led to feel, on a visit here, that San Francisco is far behind the times in the matter of puolic playgrounds. Probably the other visitors of the suggested excursion would aid the com mission in an agitation that would put the coast metropolis in at least a posi tion of fair comparison with her north ern neighbor.

TOLTmSWER A Resident Known to all Our Readers Relates an Experience Readera of the Glacier have been told again and again of the merits of that reliable, time proved kidney remedy- Doan'a Kidney Pills. The exper iences told are not those of unknown persons living far away. The cases are Hood River cases, told by Hood River people. Isaac Ford, Hood River ,Ore., says: "The lapse of time since I publicly en dorsed Ooan's Kidney Pills has not changed my opinion of them. I still take this - remedy occasionally and it always benefits me. Lumbago and kidney trouble caused nie much suffer ing and I seemed unable to get relief. The pains started in the small of my back and radiated through all parts of my body. At night 1 was so miseraDle that I could not get my proper rest. In the morning I was gtitf and lame and any attempt to stoop or lift drove me almost frantic. I had dizzy spells and felt tired after the least exertion. Doan's Kidney Pills hepled me promptly and continued use corrected my trouble." For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents. Foster-Milburn Co , Buffalo, New York, sole agents for the United States.
