For Better Roads.

The local papers throughout Mime
are urging the building OF good
roads with comnlendable energy and
persistence. Tnis subject is one OF more
concern TO the farmers than the Alliance
programme Of government s~torehouses
for corn and wheat and government
loans at 2 per cent. interest on land
mortgages. There is no denying that
the value Of farm property VIII be
greatly increased by the construction
and maintenance Of better roads. and
there is no reason why every farmer
should not join heartily in the move
ment.
I The saving in horseaesh and in the
wear and tear OF wagons and Carriages
would be very great, and. taken in con.
nection with the increased value OF
county property, would be profitable
Every congress appropriates from s2o,'
600. 900 TO $50, 900, 900 for the improve

Improvement Of country roads. How
would it do to divide up these millions
and give something toward the building
Of roads used by the people who pa.

II Mr.. Edison is right the average
life Of woman should be much above
that of man, but such is not the case,
and we men all know that a bald
headed woman is a rarity might
almost say a freak.
The fact is that women lead mom
serene lives and pay more attention
10 their hair than men. They az

once. but several times a day. Men
on the other hand devote scarcely
any attention to their hair, They
have little time to bother about it

In the Quaker City there is well
known business and society man who
pursues q stlikingly original line of con-
duct. In his business he is quiet, reg
ular and Industrious, and particularly
prides himself upon the neatness and
accuracy which characterized his books
of account. During the social season
he fits about from entertainment to en-
tertainment, frequently attending operas
and playhouses, always having with him
some one of a score of girls to whom he
pays more or less attention. When asked
why no had 80 many girls he said: ooh,
all girls talk MS they write--very much
alike, but still there is more variety in
twenty than in one. Besides, keep a
regular set Of books at home in which j
enter every cent spend on them, and 1t
affords me considerable amusement.
For instance, charge cost of theater
tickets, flowers, supper and carriage
hire, and then credit it with the amount
Of pleasure l had-'P assable time en-
joyed,' Enjoyed the evening hugely
etc. The girls who afford me the most
enjoyment receive the greater number
Of invitations, so l think l may fairly
say that | seek relaxation and pleasure

a Thourhtless old aontlemnn.

1t was the night .rush hour on the
Brooklyn bridge trains. More people
were crowded into one of the cars at the
New York terminus than had any right
to be there without rislxing suffocation.
Through the side entrance to the car
came three young and pretty girls,
swept on by the tide Of humanity. The
car was crowded, but that didn't mat
ter. In the crush the girls were help
less. They couldn't help being pushed
into the car, and an instant later they
couldn't Withstand the counterpush
which seated one Of them, willy nilly,
on the knees of an old gentleman. In
the jam her two companions were thrust
against this young woman, and pre-
vented her from rising. 1t was not UNI
til the train was well on its trip toward
Brooklyn that the crowd gave way
little and she was enabled to regain her
footing. She begged the old mans par
don sweetly enough, but to her friends
she said not word until the three were
safely ont OF the ear ans. On tho platform
of the Brooklyn station. Then she freed
her mind.
"That's what call an impolite man."
she declared.
"Whys' said one of her companions,
81 thought he behaved beautifully. He
didn't say word"
"That's just the trouble" snapped the
other. "He didn't have the grace even
to say, Keep your seat, madam. New
