The Footpath.

In England one may walk through a
county without troubling the high road.
The winding by road, with its bowery
sides, is everywhere at our service. and
everywhere, too. we find ,the footpath,
crossing private grounds, perhaps, az
sanctioned by some ancient right of way;
edging the little river and passing it BY
the bridge, which is always to be found
where needed; bordering the farmers
fields. leading from one hospitable gate
OF turnstile to another. and finding it's
way to every attractive point OF view.
England has been cultivated for 90
many Centuries that scarce an aero ap-
peass which the hand ct naaz has not paak

But to explain why we have not 30
nany footpaths as the English is not to
confess ourselves satisfied with the want
of them. Nor is there any reason why
we should not have them ia far greater
numbers 1t costs good deal to make
a road, but very little to make q foot
path, for, Of course, we need merely
narrow path which a we'll shod and sem
sibly dressed person oNA traverse with
moderate degree OF confort-not gravel
walk fit for slippers and muslin gowns
Often q couple Of planks across brook
few loads OF earth dumped in a marshy
spot, two or three stones set as steps
against wall or fence and little cut
ting away of tree branches and under
growth would open up delightful tract
OF country which now is almost impossi-
bic of approach
Nor do we think that the farmers or
landed proprietors interests would suffer
by such triiing civilities paid to possible
pedestrians. More persons would cross
his property, bet those who did cross
would do it less damage The path might
keep even boys feet from strayinx into
less desirable directions, while thoSe for
whose especial benefit it was formed
would, of course, be limited by its bounds.
II even the rudest, simplest paths were
thus generally formed in our rural
neighborhoods their influence would at
once be felt in the village itself, as well
as in the summer colony.
Ask any farmers daughter why she
does not walk more and she will answer,
like the city woman, "Where shall l
walk? The road is unattractive. the
meadows and woods are always more or
difficult to cross and often impossible"
More paths and simple bridges and stiles
are what we need, alike in the interests
of healthful physical development and
of healthful growth in the sentiment for
Naturalization and Forest.

Following tho Fashion.

A famous French woman's witticism
about the way her own country women
differ from other women in their dress is
perhaps deserving Of attention on the
part of some American women.
There are two ways she says. "of

"a French woman follows it as dog
follows It's master. But all other women
follow it as blind man follows his dog. -

that sat in one Of the dark corners Of the

national bank, the middle aged pastor OF
a Philadelphia Baptist church, and the
wicked brother. The Philadelphia girl
passed her bonbonniere box with the
usual invitation to the cruel brother,
who sat on her right. The brother deity
transferred to the box handful Of small
and carefully selected pebbles taken that
morning from brook with malice pre-
pense, at the same time emptying the
toothsome little CONNECTIONS into his other
hand, under tho cover of the darkness.
He then pretended to "help himself and

The Seven Bibles.

Orange IN. j. Journal.
Ghe seven Bibles of the world are
the Koran of the Mahometans, the
Tri Pitikes of the Buddhists, the
Five Kings OF the Chinese, the
Three Vedas of the Hindoos, the
Zendavesta, and the Scriptures of the
Christians.
The Koran is the NEST recent of the
five, dating from about the seventh
century after Christ. 1t is a COM
pound of quotations from both the
Old and New Testaments and from
the Talmud. The Tri Pitikes con-
tain sublime morals and pure aspira-
tons. Their author lived and died
in the sixth century before Christ.
The sacred writings of the Chinese
are called the Five Kings, the word
"kings" meaning web of cloth.
From this it is presumed that they
were originally written on five rolls
of cloth. They contain wise sayings
from the sages on the duties of life,
but they cannot be traced further
back than the eleventh century be-
fore our era.
The Vedas are the most ancient
books in the language of the Hindoos,
but they do not, according to late
commentators, antedate the twelfth
century before the Christian era.
The Zendavesta of the Persians,
next to our Bible, is reckoned among
scholars as, being the greatest and
most learned of the sacred writings
ZOroaster, whose sayings it contains,
lived and worked in the twelfth
century before Christ Moses lived
and wrote the Pentateuch 800 year,
before the birth of Christ therefore
that portion of our Bible is at leas
800 years older than the most ancient

The Four New States.

1t was a matter Of course that the
new States would be in political SYM
pathy with the Administration. This
has always been the rule, and Mon
tana is the first exception to it. Mich
igan, Wisconsin, Iowa, Florida, Ar
kansas and Minnesota were all
brought into Statehood under Demo-
cratic auspices and were all Demo-
cratic States until the Civil War
came on. An evening paper Of this
city last week announces that Mr..
Boies is the first Democratic Govern
or that has ever been elected by the
State of Iowa. The fact is that Iowa
had none but Democratic Governors
from the date of her admission into
the Union, in 1916, until the war
came on, in 1861. And so with the
other new States above named.
But those new States can have no

they will not long adhere to the par

absence of that insolence on the one
