The Lighting Oommissioners of Dis trict No. 1, Wood bridge Township, have made pnblio their report of their Investigations of the lights furnished the township by the Central Bleotrio Company, on the strength of which they reoently awarded the new con tract for lighting to the highest bidder. This is what the people have been wanting for some time. It is yet to be explained, however, why the Cen tral Company was not forced to im prove the lights. If they refnsed to do so, the commissioners would have been justified in refusing to make payments. Instead, however, the in vestigations were made and the report kept quiet until the contraot expired so as to be used as an exouse to give the contract to the Carteret Company regardless of the lowest bidder. The commissioners have not yet done their full duty to/?e public, by any means. Why was tW. report kept under oover so lontyMEi^k^ was found that the fl^otric Company waH not .ug the required light, why were they not forced to come to time at once? Thns far there seems to have been no Rood reason ^advanced why New Jersey should not have a reformatory for women. Even if they do disobey the law and have to be punished, they are still women and they should be treated accordingly. If a reformatory is thought necessary for men it is all the more reason why one should be established for the opposite sex. A jail or prison is no more fitting for a woman than a man. The State's funds are not so low but what it oan afford the expenditure. A long, hot sammer is predicted and it is said it will come on with a rush before the present week is over. Not so much enthusiasm if you Dlease. Break it a little more gradually. After the drought during May the rain oame with such a rush that it has entirely overdone the matter. Now to jump right back to the drought again, is entirely too mudh. We would prefer to have things even up a little more. .The report comes from Atlantic City that the Board of Health there is very active. Among many other oases, the board has fonnd a number of honses not in proper sanitary condition. Thoy have notified the owners to oome up to the requirements of the health ,oode or the buildings would be con demned and torn down. This reminds us that we have a Board of Health in Perth Amboy. At the presont time they are busily engaged seeing how long they can go without having a quorum present. Two months have now passed without a meeting. It is possible that the record will yet be broken in this regard. Two large manufactures have re cently been erected in South Trenton and measures are being discussed to give them proper fire protection. The smallest steamer in the Trenton department is capable of 600 gallons per minute, yet the chief does not think this suffloient for the protection of the plants and favors an engine with a oapaoity of 900 gallons per minute. The ministers of the city preached on Snnday observance yesterday. They told their ohnrch members what they Bh'onld do to make the day better. That's the right place to begin. If the chnroh members and those who profess to be Christians will not keep the Sabbath, there is little hopes of getting any of the others to do it. Oamden is proad of the fact that the Board of Aldermen there has authorized the expenditure of $100,000 for street paving. People of Perth Amboy are not as prond as those living in Oamden, bat there is a good reason why they are not. EDITORIAL COMMENT. Tha activity of the Board of Health in putting the city in a perfectly sanitary condition is peculiarly grati fying at this time of official do nothingism in other directions. The health of the resort is paramount to that of its sightliness, and if we can't have both we will take good sanita tion as the more desirable of the two. ?Atlantic Oity PreBS. The arrest of a number of unlicensed dealers in milk, on complaint of the Board of Health, is an indication that the Board has risen to the proprieties of the case. ? Trenton True American. Setting Close to Hatir*. Richard and Cherry Kearton, who ktvo recently brought out in England ? new edition of Gilbert White's im perishable book, '"The Natural His tory of Sedborne," illustrated with photographs of the birds, animals and insects described by White, adopted methods of getting close to their sub ject* without alarming them which are worth the attention of Amateur photographers. Sometimes they con oealed themselves and their camera in ? stuffed sheep, and sometimes it wadf ? stuffed cow that they employed. On1, other occasions they built an artificial hollow rock near the haunt of the birds they were studj*ing. Sometimes clothing, colored like the grass or the soil, served their purpose. They photo graphed not only birds on their nests, ?nd feeding their young, but fish in the water, and dragon flies and beetles resting on leaves or stems, and even wakes In the grass. ?

The water of the cisterns is renewed continually by mo&ns of a motor pump, and a system of pipes connected with them.? Londos Vew.v ? ? ' "? i, I German Pine Needle OH. The making' of pine-needle oil is nn industry of the Thuringen mountains in Germany. The needles and young shoots of various pines ? especially of Pinus pumillio ? are collected late in May or early in June, and are cut into small pieces and put into a cyl indrical still, though which steam is passed. The steam is then liquefied in a condenser, when the volatile oil carried over is skimmed from the surface of the water. The portion jot the steam condensed in the cylin der falls through the bottom, carry ing resinous, albuminous and tan nated substances, and this extract is concentrated in a special vacuum evaporator, when it is added to the oil to give the necessary perfume. The oil is put up in jars as a remedy for rheumatic and similar com plaints. The fibers left in the still are separated by a special machine, perfumed with the oil, and put up in packages for stuffing pillows. Oat of the Heart's Bltterneaa. Blobbs ?

A leading physician of an eastern city, who was formerly an army sur geon, speaking from the experience of a long and large practice, says that an abnormally cool summer is no more to be desired than an ex oessively hot one, reports Qood Housekeeping. In his opinion, a moderately warm summer results (n a higher average of the public Health. One of his theories in this connection is of more than passing interest, as it concerns a matter over which the individual has control ? perspiration. It is his opinion that in a cool summer the average in dividual does not perspire sufficients ly, and on this account often faces the winter with a system actually not in as good condition as if the summer had beea excessively warm. The function of perspiration is to clear the system of effete matter. It is, perhaps, second only to the kidneys> as a cleansing agent. Once the pores of the skin are clogged the whole load of poisonous and effete matter is forced upon the kidneys and intestinal organs. Often these are unable to take care of the mat' ter. and serious results follow. In a hot summer nature takes mat ters into her own hands. Humanity perspires in spite of itself. In this way an incalculable amount of waste is thrown out through the Bkin. "You cannot perspire too freely so long as it is a natural perspira tion, one not caused by disease," said the surgeon already quoted. "The freer the perspiration the less work for the kidneys." It follows, then, that in a cool sum mer it is advisable to induce perspir ation through the medium of vigor ous exercise. Granted that it is vastly more comfortable to lounge in shady retreats and watch some one else chase tennis balls under a broiling sun or tramp enthusiastical ly over the golf links, nevertheless their reward will come later. They will enter the winter, with its more or less necesuary confinem'ent, better physically, better mentally. Alas that so few realize the im portance of a healthy skin, how vital it is to the whole physical well-be ing. It has been demonstrated time and again that when large areas of skin have been destroyed the effete and poisonous matter, unable to find its usual outlet, is thrown upon the kidneys to an extent which may even result in Bright's disease. Serious burns have proved fatal, not in them selves, but from intestinal ulceration due to the inability of the organs to carry off the waste which, under nor mal condition, would have paased through the skin. PLAIN ENGLISH. Amaslng Ignorance Displayed by Husband Whea It Was Being llaed to Him. His wife came into the room where he was sitting. She was twisting her self around in the effort to look at the back of her new blouse. By the tense lines and bulging aspect about her lips he knew that her mouth was full of pins. He knew it anyway without looking for those symptoms. "Umph-goof-wuff-wuff-sh-th-bf-fspf f-f," she said. "Yes, it looks all right," he an swered, resuming his paper. "Owf-wuff-gs-pf-snf-up-upw-r-r-r-o oghsth," she mumbled. "Of course it does," he assured her, glancing over the top of the paper. "It fits like the paper on the wall." "Sw-ssh-uzuzuz-woll-gph-m-m-m-sh p-z-z-z," she said, stamping her foot. "Didn't I tell you it was all right?" asked the man, lowering his paper. 'Maybe it needs a little taking up in the shoulders, but nobody could no tice it." Hastily letting the pins fall from her mouth to her hand, she cried: ? "I've asked you three times to raise the window blind so I could get more light. It's a pity you can't under stand plain English.", Of course, the man could have said something scathing in reply, but he knew better. Cheri/ Cap I'uddlnK.

London school board children vac 4,000,000 exercise and copy books inrarly. Mixed elementary classes of boy* ?nd girls are to be tried at one of the large schools at Vienna. Baron de llirsch's bequests to educa tion support 50 schools in Galicia. There are 5,634 pupils and 247 teachers. The Congregational church at Nome, nearly in the arctic circle, was built in midwinter in three weeks, and almost entirely by the labors of the people, freely and gladly given. In China there are 1,746 walled cities. In only about 247 of these are missdon> aries at work, leaving 1,500 unoccupied, and in only 88 villages and unwalled towns have mission stations been es tablished. Lord Methuen declared recently that the type of clergyman needed in South Africa was to found doing his work at the Oxford mission in the east end' of London, with his shirt sleeves tucked up. The engineering schools of Great Britain are in such an infantile condi tion that the advanced mechanical stu dent is advisedito go to theMcGill unv versity at Montreal or the Polytechni kum at Zurich, says the Cornhill (Lon don) Magazine. The proportion of university stu dents is going up in Holland and the United States at the rate of five per cent, per annum; in Germany and Bel gium by six per cent.; in Switzerland by more than seven per cent., while in France, Italy, Austria and Russia the annual increase does not fall behind these figures, but in Great Britain, taking several yearB together, there has been a falling off. According to the last census of Can ada, the full-blooded Indians in the re gion north of the great lakes numbered 99,364, and of these only 16,677 were still Pagans. A great part of the work of evangelization has been done by the Church of England, which now has 11 well organized missionary dioceses. The Methodist missionary, Evans, with his invention of syllabic writing, "aid ed in the almost complete Qhris'tianiza tion of whole tribes like the Crees and Ojibways." WHERE TO FIND WICKEDNESS. Its Seat Located in tbe Brain by Sur gical Operation on Boy'm Head. The metaphysicians have a new nut to crack in the experience of Hoy Ellis, an urchin of ten years, in Indianapolis, says a recent repdrt. When he was five years old another youngster propelled a dornick which caved In slightly Master Roy's head piece. The stone struck him in the back of the head and he was uncon scious for a time, but apparently re covered, yet there was a permanent dent. Prom that tune Roy devel oped from a good enough littte boy to a young fiend incarnate. He was always plotting some villainy. He attempted to murder his mother, he made a violent assault on his little sister, and had to be watched inces santly because of his active crim inal tendencies. No crime was un attempted by hijn from murder and arson to common assault and lar ceny. His intelligence was unim paired, but his morals were of the yellowest stripe. So, not long ago, an Indianapolis surgeon took him in hand for a study at the Union state hospital. He trepanned the skull at the site of the injury suffered five years before, and took out two cir cular disks and a strip of bone be tween and carefully separated the adhering membranes from the bone in the surrounding *parts and sewed up the scalp. The boy has been care fully chaperoned since to watch for criminal impulses, but he has none. He is as good a fellow as there is in his neighborhood, Is kind and docile, and protects his little sister with as much assiduity as he has for five years persecuted and abused her whenever he had an opportunity. He is very bright in his studies at school, just as he was before the op eration. The Sapadilla. "People who have been much in the south are very fond of the sapadilla," said the fashionable fruiterer. "No;* they are not expensive ? five and ten' cents each. As for looks, it's a toss up between a russet apple and a sweet potato. The pulp is very soft and de iiciously sweet. It is tropical, and is eatable when it begins to be spotted. These came from Miami, Fla., along with those watermelons at $1.50 and $1.75 each. The tree in its native haunts is a tall evergreen, and the , fruit is called by some the sapadilla plum. As for the spelling of it, there's [no limit ? sapodilla, sappadillo, sappo dilla, znpotilla, sapotillo, zapotlla and zapote are a few of the ways. It is the cochltzapotl of Mexico. An Ameri can nickname is naseberry. Some who consider it too sweet by itself find it j delicious in desserts. ? Philadelphia Record. Dos Shoe*. It seems like overdoing kindnesB to pet dogs to have them wear shoes, or j rather it seems like a mistaken kind ness, for no canine wearer of shoe I leather even though custom-made has yet been seen to look one whit the happier for the addition to his wareU fobe. In fact, the few ultra fashion able dogs so shod loojf as conscious and unhappy as did ever a country boy, happy in going about barefooted, when set into his first pair of boot* and headed for- Sunday school.
