Col. ]. d. McInt, e, the well-known
irrigation and civil engineer of Sc
attic, is the inventor of a new system OF
wagon roads which he thinks and pre-
diets will revolutionize country travel
He calls it the "Steel Wagon Road, u
and he says it will be a new and popu-
lar departure in wagon road building.
He get his idea from observing that
the drivers of every kind of vehicle
seek the car tracks in preference to the
best gravel or paved street.
Mr.. Mcintyre estimates that the cost
of single track rural steel roads will
not exceed $1,000 to $4,000 per mile,
while the cost of macadamiZed wagon
roads average over $4,000 per mile.
The track on which the wagon wheels
run is steel rail about the thickness
of boiler late and five inches wide
CONSTRUCTED in the shape of gutter,
with square perpendicular shoulder
one-half an inch high, then an angle Of
one inch outward, slightly raised. This
furnishes a conduit to carry off rain
water and makes very easy course for
the wheels to run in, also on this plan
the wear of the tires is reduced to a
minimum and a loaded wagon can
easily go upon or leave the track. A
horse will draw on one of these steel
roads twenty times as much as on a
dirt road. One of the interesting facts
in connection with this idea is that
bicycles of every description can Use
the steel road as we'll rs wagons, also
the new horseless wagon, whether they
he run by electric storage batteries,
overhead wires or whether the pewer
he steam oil, naphtha, dynamite, or
any of the eighteen or twenty different
kinds of motive power now used in the
manufacture OF the cOAhing horstless
wagon, they can all find their way over
the Mcintyre steel roads at pace equal
to railroad train. Mr.. Mcintyre says
that he thinks the coming road wagon
will be horseless and made mostly of
aluminium. The new road and new
wagon will revolutionize agriculture
and do much to stop the overgrowth
of cities and to develop the settlement
of the country. 1t will make country
life delightful and hence so popular
that the tendency will be to crowd out
into the rural districts instead of, as is
now the case, into the cities. One of
the Mcintyre steel roads will be built
the coming summer near Seattle.-Se-
attic Times.

The tobacco habit grows ON a man until his
nervous system is seriously affected, impairing
health, comfort aud happiness To quit sudden
ly is too severe shock to the system, as tobacco
to an inveierate user becomes a stimulant that
his system continually Graves. 'Baco-Curo" is
scientific cure for the tobacco habit in all its
FORMS carefully compounded after the formula
OF an eminent Berlin physician who has used it
in his private practice since 1872 without fail
ure. 1t is purely vegetable and guaranteed per-
fectly harmless You can use all the tobacco
you want while taking "Baco-Curo" It will
notify you when to stop. We give written
guarantee to cure permanently any case with
three boxes, or refund the money with 10 per
cent. interest. "BacO- euro" is not a substitute,
but scientific cure, that cures without the aid
OF will power and with no Inconvenience. 1t
leaves the system as pure and free from nicotine
as the day yon took your first chew or smoke.

The One Great Issue.

George r. Scott says in the New
York Witness:
"Only moral issue can take hold OF
the heart of q man or woman and
make them do deeds that will surprise
themselves. Men we're ready to die
for freedom in other days. Men have
also sacrificed their lives for the prin-
clple of the prohibition of the liquor
traffic, and others will vet do SO. But
7 have vet to hear of one being willing
to die for the principle of high or
low tariff or to settle the silver ques-
ton.
"Wby / am so anxious to keep my
Prohibition brethren to the question
Of fighting the liquor devil is that in
that issue they have rallying cry
that appeals to all that is best in the
hearts of all good men and women.
81 am willing to spend my time
fighting the liquor traffic-in thu
church, at the ballot box, on the stump,
in the columns Of papers, among my
neighbors, or anywhere else where
can get chance to hit the enemy, but
I am not willing to spend my time in
mixed up fight against the saloon
and half dozen other real or supposed
wrongs.
"Make up your minds as to what is
wrong and which wrong must be first
attended to, and then fight that wrong
with all your might. AS you double
up your fists say to yourselves, This
one thing 1 do Break down this one
wrong, and afterward tackle some
other.
The saloon keepers know enough
to unite on one issue and not quarrel
among themselves about minor Issues
on which they are not agreed. Smart
men in that particular.
81 want to see the one almost uni
versally condemned evil done away
with. And that evil is the American
saloon with it's power to damn men,
women and children and to control
our politics to such an extent that the
desires of the best people cannot often
get even hearing.
