| a never-failing friend, and it is the
good book that the directorate of the
library strives constantly to get into
the hands of readers, especially youths.
| The good book is source of inspira-
ton as well as Of comfort; it is fear
less, but companionable; unsparing but
gentle; ever an influence for good, and
always friend that possesses the vir-
tue OF silence and unweariedness.
| We say that such an institution, that
it is common knowledge is inadequate

means, ought to see in the work of

hearts of the people. a means to the
greatest possible good, and should

portunity open to it shall fail to be
availed of. n

which it has not. 1t should have a
greatly enlarged reference library. and
much larger mechanical library. 1t
needs and should have an outfit Of
astronomical and philosophical instru-

classes. and lecturers with their audi
ences.

OF all tradesmen undertakers are per-
haps the most to be dreaded; not be-
cause of certain solemn associations
connected with their occupation, but
because they work upon the sympathies
of bereaved survivors to practice i'm
positions in the way of monstrous and
indefensible charges.
The late Legislature appropriate ST.
lis to pay the funeral expenses of
Spencer c.. Willard. who was elected
Lieutenant Governor, but who died
shortly after he took the oath of Office.
1t would be interesting to see the item
lied account Of this bill. A very de-
cent funeral may be had for $500. Very
poor people seldom pay more than
800. A funeral costing $500 is really
a very expensive affair. And yet the
Legislature pays some undertaken ST.
us for burying Lieutenant Governor.
At least 81 900 of this money was a
clear steal.
The same Legislature appropriated
81, 102 to pay the funeral expenses of
Dana Perkins, who died while incum-
bent of the office of State Librarian
The funeral itself was a very unosten-
tatious affair There are several hun
dred people in the city of Sacramento
who attended that funeral, and who.
accustomed TO attend the funerals of
their neighbors, noticed nothing I'M
usual in the way of expenses. If they
had been told they We're attending an
LOO funeral they would have looked
in vain for the elements of expense
which would justify that outlay. There
is probably a steal in the amount of
$500 in the funeral OF Dana Perkins.
These things are tolerated simply be-
cause they are not criticised with that
freedom which relates TO other items of
public expense. If a mans wife dies
and he finds fault with her funeral ex-
penses, the undertaken circulates the
story that he was small minded and
penurious. An expensive funeral has
come to be regarded as an expression
of ones bereavement. Economy in
the burial OF father. mother, wife or
child is looked upon as an evidence of
want Of affection, and it is out of this
situation that the opportunity for the
undertaken arises. Some one in the

To the French mind the Alsace- Lor-
raine question is ever present. The
Frenchman cherishes the hope that
some day these two beauty spots of
old France will be reset among the
jewels Of her crown of INDEPENDENCE.
AT, the suggestion of such hope the
German smiles grimly, and tells of the
effect of a generation or two of growth
under German regime. But as any
possible issue of a threatening char
acter between the two countries would
bring the possession of Alsace and
Lorraine again to the level of struggle,
the French are not without justifica-
ton in urging through their political
and literary journals that the Republic
should fortify all along the French side
of the border, just as Germany has
been doing for fifteen years or more
along the German border. The Revue
de Paris" is quoted as urging that the
old town of Nancy should be thorough
ly fortified, since Strasburg and Metz
have been made military centers and
scheme Germany has no right to OBJ
ject to it, and it might tend to prevent
the two nations from locking horns,
for less than some very great cause.
Preparation for war is often the con-
servator of peace.

THE HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT

While the more ardent friends of the
good roads movement freely express
their regrets that the Governor could
not see his way clear to approve the
bill for commencing work upon the
State road system and the bill for
classification of roads they are cor
respondingly pleased that the bill for
the Department of Highways received
executive approval
The work Of the Bureau of Highways
was so effective during the two years of
it's existence: it resulted in so edu-
eating of the people to the Importance
and great economy of permanent good
roads, and brought about such a
change of sentiment concerning the es-
sentials of good roads, disabusing the
public mind of many entertained errors
regarding them and their location,
grades C, instruction and maintenance,
that good road enthusiasts look forward
to the next two years of work by the
Department Of Highways now created
with high hopes AS the laws now
stand, there is ample work for the
members Of the new department With
the results of the travel, investigation
and gathered data of the bureau in
hand, and the outline of similar and en-
larged work of that order for two years
more, and the plating and making
ready for proposal of a State system
whenever the State shall see fit to order
work to he commenced, there will be
busy two years work TO engage the
best efforts of the department. The
outlook therefore for the good road
movement in California is bright.

Latterly it has become a custom with
the New York and some other great
dailies to send out gorgeously colored
supplements. with their Sunday and
holiday issues, with a great variety of
illustrations and quantity of matter
more or less worthy of condemnation
or respect. Some Of these supplements
have been and are simply monstrosi-
ties, caricatures upon art, ofenses to
wit, and absolutely vulgar and coarse
in their hunlor. Others have been of
higher grade Thus the "Twinkies' of
the Tribune makes up a small quarto
weekly magazine supplement that is
very clever, quite handsome, fully illus
trated and is clean and decent. If it's
text is not all of greatly elevated char
acter. it is at least inofensive. and
for most part it is helpful and enter
tanning. The Times supplemental
uuarto weekly magazine is fine-art
production rich in half-tones, choice
in text, treats Of art, the drama. edu-
cation, news. science and general good
reading. The Herald has not come
to the weekly magazine form, but re-
tains its supplements in the style of
the paper. They are, as rule, very
handsome. but have been inclined to
overcolor and exaSgerate. and on the
page Of wit and humor to be somewhat
L fi.,f
these things. it is a supplement of great
worth in fine pictures, so original and
bold in design and drawing, and of
such dashing experiments in color
printing as to command attraction. The
Easter supplement of the Herald is
n hong step, however, in advance it
is a thing of beauty The text is mainly
of the season of JOY and flowers, with
plenty of fiction and something conced-
ed to caricature. 1t is helpful. hope
full. chaSte, inspiring. entertaining and
informing The haif-tone work is of
the best style of the art possible to be
adapted to newspaper conditions, and
in tint effects it is a surprise, for how
such good work can be done upon a
newspaper page is really wonderful. We
have seen no supplement in a long time
so truly artistic, addressing so closely
the refined taste, and that is so timely
and seasonable, and peryaded by the
spirit of the occasion the sheet is is
sued to honor. Beside such examples
of fine newspaper supplement work
