Why Old yioiins Are Best

Fabulous prices are sometimes paid for
old yiolins, and many an enthusiastic
musician would part with his last dollar
to possess one of the masterpieces of Strad-
ivarius or Guarnerius or another of the IA
nous makers of = century or two ago
The unquestioned superiority Of these
old and often battered instruments has
been variously nscribed to the peculiar
quality of the varnish used in their con-
struction, to the elasticity of the wood
employed and to the ripening and improv-
ing effects of age and long use.
But Mt the meeting of NE American
Association For the Advancement of Sci
ence reasons were shown for believing that
the real cause of the superiority of the old
instruments Is due to peculiar warping
of the wood to a higher arch, buckling
caused by the position Of the + holes and
soundpost."
1t might be thought that the same effect
could be produced by giving an equal
arching to n new Instrument, but the ef-
feet II attained Is not permanent, because
with age the arching increases until too
great q degree of rigidity is the result.
The substitution of aluminium for wood
In the making Of violins has been suggest
ed, because experiment has shown that
soundboards Of aluminium resemble in
tone those made Of wood, and that an alu-
minimum violin does not undergo changes
of form with age, so that it can be made
perfect TO begin with and will remain in
that condition.-Youth's Companion

TIE AxESsTgASSE. SWITZERLAND.
Cantons from Whitman to Fluellen. Over
this road we walked the other day for
nine miles. sometimes on n level with
the waters of the lake and sometimes
far above them. and yet so gradual was
the grade that we could scarcely tell
that we were going up hill or down.
II does not provoke many patriotic
feelings TO compare these roadways
with the sOggy hog wallows. called
roads, that i have sometimes seen in
the west. where the wheels sink to
their hubs in the soft soil. or with tho
steep ungra'lCd tracks over the New
England hills covered with loose stones
and gravel, over which the farmers
must struggle to market.
But our roads are improving, and
soon. / believe, even they will promote
patriotic impulses.
BY tho way, Il there any necessary
connection between good roads and good
government: The Swiss have the best
roads and perhaps the best government
in the world Certainly we get more
new ideas and good ideas in political
economy of late years from little Swift
zerland than from any other land
The Turks have the worst roads and
perhaps the worst government in the
world.
Is this a mere coincidence: Do good
roads foster good governments. or are
they merely fOstered by them:-Rev.
Francis Z Clark in Golden Rule.

swITzERLANp's GRAND HIGHWAYS.

What Connection Is There between Coed
Roads and Coed Government.
In Switzerland n thousand lovely
scenes are made visible by ms many
splendid roads. Swiss enterprise and
governmental foresight have made ac-
cessible almost every mountainous nook
and Granny of this stanch little republic.
No pains or expense is spared to get
the very best. The roadways are beauti-
fully macadamized and finely graded
The embankments are protected by solid
masonry. Every dangerous precipice by
the roadside is guarded by n wall Of
hewn stone. and the mountain torrents,
which abound. have their waterways
cabined, cribbed. confined and hemmed
In in all sorts Of ways, so that they
shall not overflow their banks and
threaten tho highways
Probably in no other land have the
difficulties of the roadmaker been so
great rs in Switzerland. Oftentimes he
has to hew his way through the noun
tains' solid granite More frequently
still he must scoop road out Of the
side Of the PRESCRIPTIONS cliff, but moth
jng daunts him, and success always
crowns his Efforts
Ono of these splendid roads is the
Axenstrasse. which winds along the
banks of the lake of the Four Forest

The difficulty of securing road reform
in this country is illustrated by the fate
of n constitutional amendment which
was submitted Mt the recent election in
Missouri. II was proposed to give coun-
ties with population of less than 100, =
600 the authority, which they now lack.
to levy and collect for road and bridge
purposes an additional tax not to ex-
coed ! . cents ON the dollar. The pro-
vision did not require the imposition of
q new tax. nor could it be levied in any
county unless public sentiment Endorsed
il. so that there was really no legitimate
argument against il, nor was any at
tempted. But it was n new idea, and it
ran up against the solid wall of old
fogyism. Tho result was that 1913, 6IS
voters opposed it to Of. I4I in its favor,
while much more than half of the men
who went to the polls and voted for
congressman did not express themselves
either way on this vital question. Evil
