FOR PUBLIC PLEASURE AND COMFORT A suggestion has been made which attasts its own practical utility, that of placing small wodden or iron benohes or settees at various places in town along the streets, on the publio square and in the glen that people so inclined might have places to sit and rest. Delicate women and children passing along the etreots may halt for a few moments and sit in comfort. Frequently a little group of ladies may be seen standing on the sidewalks indulging in a brief chat. Now if a seat was convenient under some tree where they might sit down it would add infinitely to their pleasure and com fort. Men meeting on the walks often stop for a few moments con versation either for business or sociability and if a bench was con venient they would appreciate its friendly offer. People from the oountry coming to town perhaps bringing one or more children would enjoy their midday lunch under the shade of some tree more than silting in a store. These benches need be uo obstruction to sidewalks. There are many places where tney could be located so as to be entirely out of tho way and people strolling about the town would no doubt greatly appreciate such restful opportun ities. It might be mentioned that a public driuking fountain has not yet materialised and this shows tlint we ate not quite up to date. What public spirited citizen will take these matters iu hand and prove himself a thoughtf ul provider of comfort, and a benefactor to uiunkiud?

Why any inrm- er wants to support a miserable naif bred hound whise instinct is to roam over the country and chase anything in sight, with the strong probability that the animals most likely to receive its attention will be sheep, passes b11 comprehension Dogs have virtually driven the shoep out of this county. Sheep are very profitable and any farmer can raise a few lambs each of which will drop a V in his hands which seems so much clear gain for they need only a few months' care in spring and summer. There is al ways an excellent market for home raised lambs in town and they bring good prices for the flavor is better than that of any raised else where. We advise farmers to raise sheep buy a good shot gun, keep it loaded with buckshot and shoot every dog found on his premises not in company with his owner. Any dog with the habit of running over the country is no goad to his owuor, is a curse to the neighborhood, and should be taxed or shot out of ex isteuoe. Why does not some enterprising and gainloving individual or corpo ration build an electric road between Port Jervts and this towm There is big money in the scheme. This is proven by the wholly unexpected prosperity which has met the D. V. R. R. in the lower part of the ooun ty whore the inducement for freight and passenger trafflo did not seem attractive but which have opened up to a most gratifying extent. There is vastly more opportunity for business on a line from here to Port Jervis, and a trolley would be just in it. Now is the time for tho driving park managers to begin talking about a fair here next fall. Surely a very respectable show could be made by our farmers and possibly the novelty would entice them to exhibit their products without ex pectation of more than honorable mention. At all events it would be a time when the people could as semble and have a good visit while oomparing notes. Probably, too, there would be outside exhibitors, At all events there would be some thing doing for a couple of days in town.

Independence Day is hero with all of its noise and good cheer. All liall! thou birthday of the nation. Thy prnise be sung ou hilltop inut plama Don. That young anil old, with sanctified cn doavor May keep this day, a glorious one, forever There has been a good deal of con troversy of late as to the proper way to observe Independence Day. It is a question as to whether the explosion of so much gunpowder and the soiling of so much intoxi cants and the directing of the thoughts of men in the channels of sport is the way to make men think of these glorious days of sacrifice that gave this nation birth. For my thought there is not the remotest suggestion in most of our celnbrn tion of that day that tried the souls of men and that made possible the lory of tho present United Slates If men will get "gloriously drunk' on this day, if they will go in great crowds to the places of amusement lot someone who feels a heart-throb for the heroes of the past, who car ries within a deep appreciation for that freedom iu which we are horn, let him take a, little time, gather a few li.ko-mindod people about him and lot them recount the deeds of heroes long since dead, and take one square look at things as they are and see if we do not realize the need of some heroes today who for home and conscience sake will strike a blow at the one institution that is ruining the nation by making drunk ards of hor boys. Presbyterian Chroniclings (By Rev. E. M. Sinmu.) As another week rolls around we have many things to be grateful for to our all-wise and loving Heavenly Father. Aside from the usual bless ings which are ours we record with gratitude the improved appearance of the interior of our house of wor ship and the repairs that aro now advancing on the Manse. Everyone who has expressed their opinion upon the work done last week in tho church vote that it is a decided im provement. But like all other steps forward it suggests one thing more to be done and that is the placing of pews instead ot the chairs that have been in use until the present time. The chairs are very comfortable and probably cannot ha improved upon in that direction but as far as ap pearances go the pews will be a marked change for the better. Then, too, there is the need of more and better lighting. The church really needs lights more than any one other thing at the present. Still we are not mipat'eut for these mat ters all take time and money anu we are very grateful to bo able to record the zeal and enthusiam that has been and is being displayed. We are sure that from present indi cations all these improvements will be made on our place of worship in due time. The new slate roof is being nailed on while the writer is penning these words. It was a much needed re pair and the gentlemen of the "Hatchet society" are tho benefac tors. All honor and credit to these gentlemen who have become an im portant factor in our church lnu and work. While we are caking of work being done und that which should he done we cannot forget tho con venience to any nothing of the great need of a buthroom in tho Manse.

IMPORTANCE OF WASHINGTON, A Lonriun Journnl'i Opinion vt the (ttpltnl City nn a Diplo- There Is a new. factor in European politics; it is America. More par ticularly la this new faetor import ant in the calculations of the llritislt empire. The clevehiirient of the l.'nited States has shifted for (Irnut liritnin, certainly the diplomatic center from Paris to Washington, but our government altogether Ig nores the filtered situation, says the London Truth. The following table of salaries paid to our diplomatic representatives is instructive: The Itritish ambassador at Paris receives I'O.nnn; at ISerlin, Constantinople anil Vienna, ' 8,0(10; at St. Petersburg. 7.S()0; ot Home, JK7,nW); at Wash ington, !-,!. Apart from other considerations, it is, therefore ob vious that Paris is regarded by our diplomatists as the prize of the ser vice, while Washington is a low rimg in the ambassadorial ladder. Ifut the United States send their beat men to represent them in London, and London is the appointment which those men most value. It Is time for us to remove from our minds the lingering impression that America is n rebellious liritish col onya vulgar Anglo-Saxon suburb. The United States is now a great country, the most important foreign element, that Great Itritaln has to clealv.ith. Washington, must, there fore, be made the principal post In our diplomatic service, and to do that the salary must be considerably raised, even if at the expense of the other 11 1st -i lass appoint incuts. It would be a pitiful h-hmder to appoint a new niulwsssudor to succeed Lord I'auneefote on the old lines, to wit. as n representative to the last im portant embassy but ludrid! "The way to gain a good reputa tion is to endeavor to be what you desire to appear." That is precisely the manner in which Chamberlain's Cough Remedy has gained its repu tation as a cure for coughs, colds, croup and whooping cough. Every bottle that has ever been put out by the manufacturers has been fully up to the high standard of exeelbmoe claimed for it. People have found that it can always be depended npon for the relief and cure of those ail merits and that it is pleasant and safe to take. For sale by A W.

One of the clever little tricks of the day is the conversion of a circular into a personal communication. The very latest, device is to have the circular, in the usual facsimile of typew riter ty pe, printed on dampened paper. The effect delights the heart of the most expert art ist in public deccpt ion, bays the New York Press. The slight moistening blurs the ink ever so slightly and leaves the sheet a trifle uneven of surface, t h us giving it the appearance of having been especially dictated for the re cipient and put through the ofticecopy ,ng press.
