The Real Vacation.

There are few wise Americans who
realize that what the vacation should
bring is not only change of scene but
change of habits. To these the new
doctrine of rest appeals with great
force. They make no attempt to get to
the fashionable summer resorts, but
shun those places almost as if the
crowded summer hotel were pestllen-
tial. They spend hours of each day
under the cool, fitting, noiseless shad-
ows of forest pines, where the wind
whispers the softest and the bees drone
drowsily among the low white blossoms
of the wood flowers.
To these even the Latest novel has no
appeal, and the whole lesson of life for
the moment is to do nothing, to be moth
ing. In the great stiffness of nature
peace and health go softly hand in hand,
soothing the relaxed muscles with a
power giving touch; and, in the deli
cious land of day dreams, the BRAIN,
sung almost to sleep by the hushed
croonings of the cool breeze among the
tree tops, grows young and strong again.
In the quiet of the grand cathedral OF
its maker, even the soul forgets the
battles, the downfalls, the cuts and
scars of life's great fight, and become
something the more wholesome, puret
and stronger.
A week of such life is worth months
spent in dogcarts, yachts and evening
hops; but among the great body of those
who hurry away in early summer to the
country and back again in the fall, and
who imagine they have had summers
rest, such life is still, unfortunately
unknown.-Boston Ad-.crtiser.

Indian Voters in Oklahoma

The fact that the Indian can vote i.
he lives Sin severalty" and pays take:
like any other citizen comes up a. odd
times to bother new states and terri.
tories. In 1859 it raised great row in
Minnesota. The legislature having en-.
acted that Indians, whether on reser-
vation or not, who had taken certain
steps in civilization, such as dressing
like white men and wearing their hair
ditto, should have the right to vote, ou9
Cullen, an Indian agent, promptly cut
the hair of all those in his charge, put
breeches on them and marched them to
the polls.
Among the humors Of the next cam.
paign was dialogue like this: "Heh,
who cut your hair:' "Cullen 6 Co."
Now Judge John Dills and other law
yers declare that the indians in Oklaho-
ma will be entitled to vote at the COM
ing elections. They say the law pro-
vides that Indians taking land in sever
atty have the same right of franchise as
any citizen. and if this opinion be good
law the candidates will have $500 In
dams to buttonhole. If the Indians vote
it is likely to make great difference in
the congressional contest.

A French Funerai Custom,

large silver letters on either side, SO that

A cheap Stone Road.

In 1871 a piece of well made dirt road
in the small village of Gilbert, 111aa miles
east of the city of Davenport, Ia, was
selected for a little experiment. The
road was sixty feet wide, with sidewalks
and cutters, the latter occupying about
sixteen feet, leaving fortyfour feet for
the highway proper. Five feet from the
center line of this forty-four feet, on
both sides of it. were staked boards, end
to end, each board one foot wide. Be-
tween these boards was dumped lime
stone, broken fine enough pass through
Pinch ring. When the space between
the boards was two-thirds full the first
boards filled were moved forward
When the boards were removed the
upper edges of the rock rolled down,
thus widening the rock track between
one and two feet, leaving on each side
of the stone good dirt road sixteen feet
wide
When the dirt surface became muddy
the travel went over the stone center,
which was thus made solid and smooth
without an expensive roller. This ex-
pertinent was completed in 1873 and the
travel over it was probably five times
as much as upon the average country
road. For sixteen years it remained in
perfect condition. Within the last two
wears about three dollars has been ex-
pended upon it in repairs. 1t is in per.
| feet condition still. Its original cost
was ninety cents for each twenty-five
cubic feet of stone. Had the same
policy continued, every rod of highway
in the district would have been macad.
amized at this time, and no expense In
Cured except the ordinary highway tax,
and from one-half to two-thirds of tina;
tax might now be relinquished.-New
