The American men are a chivalrous RAGS.
They respect women; they are the noblest
men In the world. There are, to be sure,
American savages. One class who use the
bowie knife, who drink like the hippopota-
mus, play cards, fight duels, are wildly furi-
Gus, passionate, unsafe and desperate, there
Is another class who pretend to despise fash
ion and etiquette, who dress like fiends, wear
ing conglonerates Of froclr or coat and white
tie in the evening; dress coat In the morning.
They neither know nor care for etiquette and
they think it Is noble to be thus Ignorant.
But even these two classes have respect
for women Their speech becomes decent,
their manners kind and their excuses are rH-
strained II a woman approaches them. It Is
a splendid national popularity. The London
rough has no such soft spot. Tits to be feared
that the London man Of fashion Is NOT suifi-
GENTLY imbued with IT, As for the polite
Frenchman, his external poIiteness toward
the ssbeau sexen Is very marked when be
wishes TO propitiate them, but his contempt
for them is equally marked when be does not
His cruelty is enormous. Mrs John 6her-

Trained Road I,uiIders.

Trained Road builders.
Coleman's RuraI World says: "There
10 as much need of training men for coun-
try road builders and members as for
training men for country blacksmiths
and wagon makers, and when we have
such men we should keep them at their
chosen business. Too many men are en-
trusted with the repair of highways who
have no correct ideas concerning their
business. Road making is as much Of a
trade as carriage making
We can heartily endorse every word Of
the above paragraph. And here it is pro-
per to suggest that farmers are fully as
much interested In good roads as any
class Of citizens, because over them must
be transported their surplus farm pro-
ducts to reach market or for shipment,
and every farmer has at some time felt
the great annoyance Of being compelled
TO travel over bad roads. The remedy for
all this is for farmers to work together 10
the end of securing the best possible
roads, and in this they win be seconded
by those who drive for pleasure. One Of
the first and most important things is to
place their repair In the hands of com
petent man, and second, to encourage
him BY placing at his disposal sufficient
means to accomplish what is expected Of
him. The most skilful road. maker will
fail II he is restricted as to means placed
at bis disposal. -Hunterdon Republican.

VIM. K. Newton, New jerseys Dairy
Commissioner, in his annual report for
1887, gives the following paragraph 10
reference to canned goods: Several re-
ports of sickness, said TO be caused by
canned foods, have been investigated
during the year. 1t was my practice to
follow up Immediately all rumors or re-
ports published in the journals, and some
person was commissioned to make a
searching inquiry as soon as possible.
The result of these Investigations showed
that ia every instance the report was
without foundation in fact. As an in
stance OF the unreliability Of these rumors,
may mention the report printed In near
~ all the papers, to the effect that gen.
tleman living In the southern part Of the
State had been made seriously i'll by eat
ing canned corn. Investigation showed
that the person had had no corn whatever,
aud that his illness was in no way due to
food"

The third party Prohibitionists can find
but little comfort or encouragement for
the future in the returns Of the two State
elections SO far held this year, in Rhode
Island and Oregon. In the former their
total vote dwindled from 1900 last year
to 1900 at the recent election, and 10 the
latter 1t fell from about 1880 TO below
1000. It is doubtful II Gen. Fisk will
poll throughout the country half the vote
given to St. John in 1884, with all the eff
fort that can be put forth in bis behalf,
and It Is very certain that the number of
former Republicans supporting the Pro-
hibition ticket will be largely diminished.

Bread VS.. Glory.

We believe the day has gone by for
the discussion of political topics in the
country newspaper. Its field is now
confined almost entirely to the collect
ing and publishing of local happenings
in its immediate neighborhood, and the
better The editor fills the bill in this
particular the larger his success will be
financially. Time was when a country
newspaper was not complete in Its
makeup without its editorial page
with one or more long "leaders," upon
which more care and thought was eX-
pended than any other department.
Then editors sought more for .glory"
and political power; now, especially
with the Younger class, the almighty
dollar Is the leading attraction.
We believe the people of any country
town prefer live local paper that pays
attention strictly to getting up a full
local page with ALL THE NEWS, than
one which contains little of local inter-
est, and number of columns of dreary,
prosy, editorials" A country editors
financialsuccess is limited to certain
degree, and while it is all very nice to
be qucted as a great political sage, etc.,
we for one. much prefer to wear a new
suit of clothes occasionally, have our
hair and beard kept "a la mode," our
home well provided for, more than one
shirt to our back, and little of the
filthy lncre in our pocket. than all the
