The following is the general
scheme of working roadsin New
Jersey, and that State is famed for.
her good roads,,
New Jersey adopted a system. of
State aid several years ago, which
has deservedly become highly
popular, especially in the farming.
communities. Under this State
aid law the cost of building
macadamizod roads is divided
between the State, the country and
the adjoining property owners.
1t is 80 framed that no road can be-
improved except upon the petition;
of the property owners residing
along the line. They pay 10 d, 9.
of the cost, the State pays one-t third
and the county the remainder:
This is an equitable arrangement,
because the value of property along
the improved line is enhanced !;
because the wealthy inhaDitants
of the cities and towns who use
the roads for pleasure and profit
pay their share os cost of scons
struction and maintenance, Sand
because the people ST the county
furnish the greatest amount Of
travel.
The popularity of this law is
evinced by the fact that the high-|
way commissioner of New Jersey
has petitions on file in bis Office |
for the improvement of roads re-
quiring many times the appropria-;I
tions made, by the State Legis.
lature, and the greater part Of his
time is consumed in listening to
tie pleadings of farmers troH all
parts of the State, urging that their
roads may be the first to be impoyed.

THE ROSE IN THE GARDEN.

He followed her into the garden, where
A rose bloomed sweet and red,
And he saw her stand beside it there
And gracefully bend her head:
She kissed the beautiful, fragrant rose.
And he heard her gently sigh,
Then he followed after, upon tip toes,
And his heart was beating high.
He stood where the maiden had stoCa
beside
The beautiful, blushing rose,
And he lovingly bent his head and
sighed
And he buried his mouth and nose
Among the petals so sweet, so rare,
That the fair maids lips had pressed,
But humble bee that had got there
Proceeded to do the rest.

There is a tendency tn ese warm
days to take to water because it is
pleasant to dabble in it. Boys
near streams are apt to overdo the
thing. Girls who have convenient
bathing tub or bath rooms may
keep the skin clean, especially
when they resort to the bath twice
a day, just to keep cool. One may
spend one-third of his time in
warm weather bathing and chang
ing clothing and thus keep very
clean, bat he never lives long to
enjoy life. 1t would be impossible
to find an octogeDarian who had
been in the habit of constant bath
ing during during his long life.
No one would advocate dirt on the
person but psychologists and best
physicians will tell you that if the
skin is thoroughly cleansed of all
secretions with alkaline soaps every
day that it is not best for the health.
DR. Thomas J. Hills thus speaks
in the Medical Record:
"Cleanliness is an excellent
habit. 1t is not, however, an
absolute essential, nor an
essential at all to good
health and mental activity.
"The healthiest man the writer
ever saw is alive and we'll today at
"a, and he took bath only
occasionally once in tho Mercy
at Liverpool in 1888 and again in
the North River in 1878, both of
which was accidental, the gentle
man being slightly intoxicated
when he fell: Almost all people
who live to an extreme old age
are found to be those who ere not
overfond of ablutions, but who
otherwise are careful in their man
ner of living."--Ex.

SOUTH CAROLINA COTTON.

The government bulletin on the
cotton crops of the Southern States
says this of the South Carolina
situation:
"In South Carolina cotton of
early planting is doing we'll every

all up, and some fields have been
