(From a Photograph by the Chairman of
the Pennsylvania Highway Committee)
Maine own one-tifth of the property of
the state, and that one-fifth of the prop
erty has paid the entire expense of
building and maintaining the roads of
the state, which are just as necessary to
the people who live in towns, and the
people of other occupations than farm
ing, as they are to the farmer. Concern
ing New York, he said that there the
farmers own only one-fourteenth of
the property of the state, and that every
farmer has been making roads for IS
other men to travel on, and he is getting
tired of doing it. He is now about to
stop it, and he finds the people of the
cities and large towns, the manufactur-
ing people and the commercial people,
ready to bear their share of the eX-
pense of improving the country roads.
The only drawback is that the farmers
themselves have been afraid to let any
change be made in the road laws of the
country, for they imagined that the
people of the cities design to impose
heavier burdens on them, instead of
being ready to help them carry exist
ing ones.
BY degrees all classes of the people
will begin to better understand each
other on the subject and will get closer
together. 1t was not strange, at first,
that country people should be supicious
of city people who TOOK the trouble to
tell them how much they would be
benefited by better roads-it was natu-
raj for them to think that such philan-
thropy was not wholly disinterested.
But as it becomes daily more evident
that all classes, trades and occupa-
tions will reap the advantages resulting
from improving the highways, that the
ultimate burden will not be increased
and that all are ready to share it, the
movement will acquire an impetus that
will insure its future success.-Good
Roads.

The Color Question Again.

Butter should be colored to suit the
person II whom it is intended. The
general market demands that butter
should have color, the year round,
about like that OF grass butter in June.
Doubtless any OF the standard butter
colors are good. The coloring matter
should be put in the cream after it is
all ready for the churn. When the
butter will be nearly white if not col
ored as is often the case in winter,
about a teaspoonful of color is usually
needed for eigfs pounds of butter. In
summer, in times of drought and in the
fall, when COWS are partly on dry feed,
some coloring may be needed, but very
little. One will soon learn by expert
ence how much to use. 1t is wet to be
cautious, as it is better to have too
little color than too much. - Dakota

CHILD'S DAILY DIET.
Mrs. Rorer Describes the Best nnd
Most Wholesome Foods for Break-
fast, Dinner md supper.

Mrs. s. 7. Rorer, writing on "The
Best Food for Growing Child" in the
Ladies' Home journal, says: "a child
must have in it's active life at least two
thirds carbonaceous foods and one-
third nitrogenoug or flesh-building
foods. For breakfast he may have first
well-baked or steamed apple, n little
apple sauce, "A ripe peach or some grapes,
followed by a well-cooked cereal with
milk, after which a soft-boiled egg, a
small bit of broiled white-fish, a little
broiled sweetbread, piece of broiled
chicken, or he may take simply bowl
of oatmeal or wheat preparation, and
slice of well-toasted whole wheat bread.
For dinner clear soup, followed by
red meat, either beef or mutton,
broied, boiled or roasted, or any of the
wild meats, with one starchy vegetable,
such as rice, potato or stewed macaroni,
and one green vegetable simply cooked,
such as spinach, cauliflower, asparagus,
lettuce, cress, celery, well-cooked GU
| cumber, carefully stewed turnip or
| well-boiled radish, over which is poured
u little cream sauce, giving the
required fatty matter. Next comes
the dessert. Such things as rice pud-
ding, cup custarG, caramel custard,
mock charlotte, floating island, rice
dumplings and boiled rice and milk, or
moulded wheatlet with whipped cream,
and moulded rice with whipped cream
may be used. Water not iced should
be the accompanying beverage.
Supper may consist of bread, thor
oughly baked, with either butter or
milk, or cornmeal mush and milk, mush
bread, bread sticks and chicken broth.
Milk is, however, the better liquid food
for the child's night meal. a child who
is fed properly, and is well bisthed and
comfortably clothed, will eat well,
sleep well and be happy and good"

A TOILET NECESSITY.
the Toilet Table of Every Sem
sible American Woman.

No woman should be without lemons
on her toilet table. They are about as
necessary nowadays as soap, so those
who believe in them say.
"Lemons!" exclaimed woman who
believes in them religiously. why, l
wouldn't be without lemons n whole
day for anything. l once heard of
French woman who was considered the
most beautiful woman of her time, and
she attributed her good looks to eat
ing eight oranges day for 365 days in
the year. I'd be willing to bet on it
that lemons will do far more toward
beautifying n woman than oranges.
Lemons beautify one through and
through, outside and in. Nothing in the
world bleaches the skin, hands and face
like a little diluted lemon juiSe applied
at night, and, strange tG Gay, unlike
ost bleaches, it softeps tne complex
IL. Then the finest of manicure acids
made by dropping L teaspoonful of
mon juice in cup of tepid water.
This removes all stains from nails and
skin and loosens the cuticle naturally
and much better than any sharp instru-
ment' A dash of lemon juice in plain
water is an excellent tooth wash, re-
moving not only the tartar, but sweet
ening the breath, and teaspoonful of
the juice in small cup of black coffee
will drive off a bilious headache before
the sufferer can say caterpillar Life
would be very barren to me without
lemons, and so it would be to any wom-
an who knows the secret of their etli-
cacy Best of all, the juice of the lem
on, taken with teaspoonful of soda
cooking soda-after each meal, will pull
the flesh right of; the most persistently
fat woman who ever worried over her
weight"

Cnne-nottomcd Chnirs.

The owner of ne-bottomed chairs
which require renovating should pro-
vide herself with ball of strong twine
to do the work very creditably to her
self in the following way: Cut away
the old cane, take n large darning
needle, thread it, make knot at the
end and loop the string through the
holes backward and forward, cross
wise from side to side, right and left,
filling every hole; then working back
again, weaving as you would for cloth.
Then varnish the chairs and place them
aside to dry. Make small cushions of
cretonne or any other material you
like and tie them on the seats with rib
bon to match.

How to Cnre for SILK.

Silk being always worn, it is strangs
how few women understand how to
treat the beautiful fabric. One fact
nct oy any means widely known is that
silk should never be folded. Then,
again, use clean, smooth table to
sponge the fabrics on. A good reno
waiting fluid for black silk is little rock
of ammonia and piece of common
soda, put into bottle and dissolve
into one-half pint of boiling water.
Sponge with this and iron; this is also
good for restoring rusty-looking blacl;
woolen goods. A French recipe says to
clean black silk by sponging on both
sides with spirits of wine and ironing
on the wrong side. The sponging with
coffee removes all of greasy appear
ance that especially affects gros grain
silks

THE DUTY OF MOTHERS.
Daughters Should be Carefully
Guided in Early Womanhood.

What suffering frequently results
from mothers ignorance; or moro
frequently from a mothers neglect to
properly instruct her daughterl
Tradition says woman must suffer-"
and young women are so taught.
There is little truth and a great deal
of exaggeration in this. If young
woman suffers severely she needs
treatment and her mother should see
that she gets it.
Many mothers hesitate to take their
daughters to n physician for examina-
ton; but no mother need hesitate to
write freely about her daughter or
herself to Mrs. Pinkham and secure
the most efficient advice without
charge. Mrs. Pinlham's address is
Lynn, Mass.
The following letter from Miss MARIE
f. JOHNSON, Centralia, Pa, shows what
neglect will do, and tells how Mrs.
Pinlkham helped her:
"My health became so poor that ]
had to leave school. was tired all the
time, and had dreadful pains in my
! side and back. ] was also troubled
with irregularity of menses. 1 was
very weak, and lost so much flesh that
! my friends became alarmed. My
mother, who is firm believer in your
remedies from experience, thoughtper
haps they might benefit me, and wrote
you for advice. / followed the advice
you gave, and used Lydia e. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound and Liver Pills as
you directed, and am now as we'll Us ]
ever was. have gained flesh and have
a good color. I am completely cured oi
irregularity." .,.

CHEMIsE AND SKIRT.

tie care is taken in the laundry. Main
sooll underwear wears for two years for
best and for two years more as second
best after il has been patched and
harmed little, if only it goes through
the hands OF a careful laundress. This
statement is borne out by every woman
who has handled dainty lingerie.
The new chemises are made long
enough for an underskirt. They are
gathered so as to be small around the
waist and to flare around the bottom.
The neck is gathered around with lace
ind ribbon. There come ribbons of all
colors that are durable and can be
Numbered with the garments without
being removed.
The shoulder bands of the chemise
are made of the same ribbon of broad
er width.
