Trenton in setting an example all
oities in the State might do well to
follow. Here is what the Oamden
Oour ier says : ,
The Trenton authorities are deter
mined to enforce the ordinance rela
tive to dosrs, and up to date 2,006
oanines have been lioensed on pay
ment of the tax by their owners.
After the 1st of Jnly owners of dogs
not licensed will be arrested and fined,
and patrolmen are locating them and
preparing for the dnty. Camden
offloials are lax in regard to the en
forcement of the dog ordinance and
they should take pattern by their
Trenton brethren and get to work at
onoe.
That has a tone about it that we
like. Arrest the owner of the dog is
a new way to get at the nuisance, bat
how does that get rid of the tramp
dogs, which are the real nnisanoe in
Perth Amboy? A little ad7ice from
Trenton in this regard wonld be great
ly appreciated here.
Oamden is to spend $16,000 for the
purchaae^f a site upon whioh to ereot
the aevm pnaegie library. Some local
peopje/^ho do not like the building
we have here and are opposed to the
city appropriating money for the
maintainaaoe of the structure, might
do well to think over this fact. The
local library, when entirely com
pleted, will be a very creditable build
ing. All the money could not be put
on the exterior.
The matter of granting or not grant
ing licenses seems to be agitating
many cities just now. Meantime our
own Board of Excise continues at the
same old stand not knowing whether
it legally exists or not.
Whether Governor Murphy wants to
be United States senator not, it has
set a great many people thinking.
The annual appropriation of the oity
of Passaic is $377, 8N8 and Camden's
appropriation is just a little less than
11,000,000. Both of these have jnst
been made. Pflrth Amboy's appro
priation is less than $70,000. Passaic
has a population of but 80,000 while
Perth Amboy has 20,000. Camden has
76,000. The comparisons of appropria
tions as to population show that our
two sister cities are either very ex
travagant or Porth Amboy is verv
economical.
It is getting pretty hot, but we can
stand it for a few days. The ground
is now moist and we can do without
rain until over Sunday anyway.
EDITORIAL COMMENT.
Dr. Santos Fernandez, of Cuba, an
nounces that mosquitoes bite jjnman
beings because they cannot produce
eggs without the warm blood of some
hot blooded animal. That is easy.
Keep out of the way of the mosquitoes
and they cannot lay and soon there
will be no mosquitoes to bite. ? Cam
den Post-Telegram. V
From festive Atlantic City cbmes
the news that United States Senator
Kean has opened headquarters at one
of the hotels and set in motion his
campaign for re-election. This is all
right as early summer gossip, but
when Uncle John reallv begins opera
tions he will open headquarters in a
bank not a summer hotel. ? Trenton
Times.
Justice Fort refused to allow a bill
which included, for a jury of twelve
good men and true, an item of 120
cigars at fifteen cents apiece. He ex
pressed the opinion that fifteen cent
cigars were too high for jurors to
smoke, when tho'countv paid the bill.
Justice Fort is "wise" to the fact
that these self -same gentlemen proba
bly smoke stogies when they are
settled for out of their own incomes.
On the other hand, the introduction
of real Havannas might give jury duty
a greater popularity than is now its
portion. ? Elizabeth TimeB.

DON'T BE FOOLED INTO DOING
SOMETHING ELSE.
"After what I have taken and done
it is no wonder I am glad of an oppor
tunity to recommend what cured me to
my friends.
I antfered intense agony from gravel
for nearly fifteen years.
For five and six weeks at a time I
could not work, the pain was so great
My kidneys and bladder were in horrible
shape. My back ached so I could not
sleep. I had no appetite at all.
I tried about every doctor in Syracust
but they failed to help me. -
I used nearly all the advertised medi
cines without any benefit.
This was my discouraging condition
when I began the use of Dr. David Ken
nedy's Favorite Remedy. I used only
four bottles and I consider myself cured
I have no backache at all, no pain i$
passing urine, my appetite is splendid.
It helped me from the start and I
gained twenty pounds in weight."

Tlie Oldest Tree.
The cypress of Soma, in Lombardy,
Is said to be the oldest tree in the
world of which there is authentic rec
ord. It is supposed to have been plant
ed in the year of the birth of Christ,
but the Abbe Belize tells us that there
is a chronicle -t Milan which speaks of
it as a grown tree in ihe time of Julius
Caesar. A rival to this is the eucalyp
tus, or gum tree, near the foot or
Mount Wellington in Tasmania, which
is 250 feet high and fully 30 feet in di
ameter. A gigantic trunk in the prov
ince of Oxaca, in Mexico, measures 200
feet in circumstance at Its base, and
according to an average rate of
growth its age would exceed 3.000
years. Cypress trees in parts of Amer
ica are very long-lived; by counting
the concentric rings where they have
been sawn through it has been esti
mated that 1,600 years is no uncommon
period of growth with them. Many
other examples have been quoted of
veteran trees which grow in Califor
nia, Ceylon and elsewhere, and some
British oaks and yews are of extreme
old age. ? Boston Globe. . ?
