TIMELY TOPICS,
Xuw that councils hae tnl.cn com

c teaming tlio numbet of htieet lights,
it would be well to ghe the mi me at
tention to a nioie ltal matte:, moie
Hie hMbants .mil 111 o alaim hoes loi

the mui eh of progiess in municipal
ulfalts, the needs of the eltlens must
needs bo looked after and a bioider
spli It must be shown than appeals to
be the disposition in the inattei of fl:o
hydiants yince we "cnolute" as the
eios.s-woods debatci would saj., so must
we "ieolute." As Carbondnle raui.s
and the outling dlstiiets .ue built up,
ho must the needs of those tapaeis
wlio he elected homes be looked
after Tt Is ancient hlstoty that then
aie file hjilumtb in ceilaln sections of
the city which hae long since out
lined their sen Ice; and in otbet
paits of the town tliete Is no lite pto
tcction, at nil. x:Iilonces of this con
dition weie "tidlv at hand a few wccl.s
ago, when at a liie in the West Side,
a house was half consumed befoie (lie
hoso of the companies could be laid
Horn a hjdiant neatly a thousand fept
awav. At a subsequent file on Noitli
Chinch .stieet, nnotliei dwelling was

their being no lite alatm bo at hand,
and by icuson of theie being no file

It rises to the height of .shame tlt.it
citizens should buffer for lite ptotee
tlon because of the disputes among
counellmen as to the location of cet
talu hydiants. Tlio lights of taptn
c:s a:e paiamouut In such Issues, but
sonietimcb they seem to bo sulioidln

A tut ions condition exists us to wl:os
duty it is to lepalr ot catibo to be :e
pahed lud:a::ts that might be out of
in dot. Theie aie a number of thes,
seeial of them so old that they aie
useless because of mst. Now who is
It that should look after them and gl.
them necesFuiy intention, Is not clear.
Councils think and say It Is the chief
of the Hie depattment, but the oulln
tinco eientlng that odleo only loosely
dellnes IiIh duties. It ru case of oe:
looklng the duties of the olllce, when
the olllce was denied. In the face of
this, councils should gle this matter
the necessa:y attention, and Is no such
pi o talon has been made then It should
bo done at opee. An impenUlo ne
cessity exists fo: such action, j;he safe
ty and ptotectlon of, the tnxpayeis.
Hut for the good enubo In which they
act, the newspaper wittei.s of the town

have been sought after since tho wlt.

almost courting death as a lollcf from suffering.
A cnpnblo mother must Tbo a licnllliy mother. Tho experience
of maternity should not ho iippronclied without careful physicnl
preparation. Caro and careful counsel is what tho expectant and
would-bo mother needs, and this counsel slio enn .secure Avlthout
