ordinance passed directing the laying c(
the walks or designating where they
should be laid. Mr. Jonea, who was not

aid it would be best for the council to

tailed to other directions. Ha susest
sd that a committee be appointed to go
over the borough accounts with a view

CYCLING IX JAPAN.
Growing Rapidly In Favor Among All
Classes of the People.
A correspondent of the London Cy
clist says that as a pastime cycling in
Japan has grown rapidly Into favor
among ell classes of the people who, by
the way, are physically especially well
conformed to become good riders, per
haps more so than the Anglo-Saxon
race Irtself. The men are short, averag
ing not more so than five feet, rather
thick set, with no great weight to carry:
while their muscular development Is
above the average, from the unusual
amount ft outdoor exerctae, chiefly
walking. Indulged In from the earliest
of youth by the majority of the men of
the middle classes. Their haWts of liv
ing glv them free ure of arms and
legs, and the art of balancing is to
tfcem not so difficult a matter to learn
as !t often proves to the stiff-limbed
youngster of the West.
Then, all Japan? are fond of traivet,
and especially of Tapld motion, while
the slight touch of vanity in their com
position makfS. tihem rather varn In
their prowess awheel when It carries
them rapidly through country villages
to an admiring ohorw fmm tht? coun
trymen who never dreamed of such me
teoric flight. The Japanese, too, has
enc'thcC advantage over a Western be
ginnerhe Is entirely free from self
consclousnem, and masters his machine
all the more readily. Nothing disturbs
Mm. and every laugh but helps ilm
along, as a covert compliment, indeed,
where a more susceptible Westerner
would ret're from public gaze coveted
with his shame as with a mantle.
WEATHER DONTS.
Don't sit In a draught when warm.
When your toes are numb with cold.
don't warm them by a hot fire. Pull en
your shoes and stockings and rub your
fee t w!th snow or cold water, or you may
have chilblains.
Don't take off your flannels till your
flannels stick to you.
Don't sit on the Ice to strap on your
skates,
Don't lick an Iron doorknob with your
tongue to And out how cold It Is.
Don't think that brandy will warm up
the stomach. Alcohol low-rs the temper
ature and the vitality.. The virtue of a
toddy is all In the hot water.
In going for a long drive don't forget
to take hot bricks, soapstones or water
bottles for the feet.
Don't take off your wraps while per
spiring. Don't muffle your throat or you will
soon have to wrap up your head.
- Don't take an Ice-cold bath Just because
your nee'.ghbor has the sensibility of a
polar bear.

During the month of June .the steel
rail mills of the country received orders
for 170,000 tons of steel rails. Not for
many years have so many rails been
ordered in one month. The prospects
for the railroads of the country being
large buyers of rails and other iron and
steel products the comlnnr fafl are very
bright. The boom of 1879, which re
sembles the present one very much, was
commenced toy the railroads; the pres

out their help, but they will undoubted
ly do their best to help It along.

given Hugh McDonald, of Plttston,
Inspector of the Third anthracite re-,

different companies cannot employ one
foreman to supervise both operations.
The attention of Inspector McDonald
was recently called to two companies
In his district which ihave joined their
underground workings and have a sin
gle foreman for both operations. The
opinion of Mr. Elkln Is to meet this
case.

In all her girlish loveliness,

"Why, with your uncle, I suppose I"
