THE COLD WEATHER
Draws Pretty Hard on the Treasury
Thirty-Eight Families
Helped.

The Associated Charities IS an Or
ganization Of the city and for the
city. Since the work is supported by
the people Of our city, it is only right
that the people should be informed as
to the workings of the association,
the good that is being done and
the needs.
At these monthly meetings we
make settlements of our accounts, hear
the report Of our city missionary,
and plan the work for the future. At
the meeting yesterday the board al
lowed bills for shoes, clothing, fuel
meat, groceries, etc, to the amount Of
$163.34
Relief has been given in this city
to about thirty-eight families, eff
fecting in these families one hundred
and eighty-six persons. This is be-
sides the relief given in the way of
clothing and shoes at the headquart-
ers. One instance of helping a man
will be Of interest. The missionary
was coming to the Office one evening
last month. when she saw a man
standing on the opposite side OF the
street. She expected that he was
waiting for her. She was not disap-
pointed. He came to the Office, and
stated his case He had found work
in one of the shops of the city, but
had no underwear nor clothing fit to
go to a boarding house nor to the
shop, and, whilst he had a piece of
soap In his pocket which would be
helpful to remove some Of the sur
plus on his body, yet he found that
the temperature was rather low to 60
through the process in the river
The missionary took in the situa-
ton, made arrangements that he
could have a bath, and gave hin,
clothing of what she had on hand
and sent him out a new man, at least
on the outside, if not inside. TIL,
old clothing which he had on hin
were committed TO the flames. Some
very sad and pitiable tales come te
the attention of your board. This is
your work, dear friends, if you have
any share in it, in any way.
Our committee has sent ont CSC an
peals to so many individuals. Of thi:
number we have received replies from
l8S, of which number 163 have con
tributed $4,000 ii laaing s 100 whicl
were received rom two parties

S44O62. pray you to carefully
consider these figures. We feel ST
that this will come to the notice o.
such which have received orr appea
and have not sent in their contribu
ton to this worthy cause. Please dc
without delay. This is severe wealth
er. 1t is hard to turn people away
who are in great need of fuel, foo,
and clothing, and turn a deaf ear t.
their cry. Send your gifts to Mrs
Mather without delay.
We thank the people for the cloth
ing which has been sent. We neec

GOOD ROADS: DEPARTMENT.
Commerce and Transportation May
Have Place In Cabinet.

Commerce and Transportation May
Have Place In Cabinet.
Good road enthusiasts are confident
that the bill providing for the creation
Of q new government department will
be passed at the coming session Of con-
gress. The measure, as. proposed and
as it will be backed by the good roads
people, provides for the establishment
Of a department Of commerce and
transportation or commerce and public
works. 1t is intended to establish un,
der its direction q bureau Of good
roads. At present the bureau of public
road inquiries is under the department
Of agriculture. It Is also the intention
to place bureaus now under the direc-
tion Of the interior and treasury de-
%partroents under the proposed depart
ment of commerce. President Moore
Of the National Good Roads associa'
ton recently said:
II have talked with a great many
members Of congress this summer
with the result that I am confident the
new department will be created at the
next session. Every senator and repre-
sentative I have seen favors it.
Heretofore the politicians have not
understood the situation, but now they
are getting their eyes opened. The
people are also beginning to see some
thing must be done toward building
permanent good roads. Our mission Is
to educate, and In establishing this de
partment and making a liberal appro'
priation for it the government will also
be educating. No one expects the gov
eminent to build the roads. Such 8
proposition would be foolish. The gov
eminent can, however, build sample
roads and thereby let the people kno"
what the advantages are. The states
must build the roads.
"The railroads are interested IN
movement for good roads because they
realize good roads are essential to theil
interests. At present shipments prac
tically stop in a large part Of the coun
try for FIVE months every year because
the farmers cannot get to the railroad
stations. The result is the railroad
companies must tryto have cars enough
to carry the business when the farmer:
can get to the stations. This compelf
them to keep large numbers Of carr
idle much Of the time, and as they
don't want to maintain any more roll
Ing stock than is absolutely necessary
they are usually short Of cars when thu
rush comes With good roads all ovel
the country the traffic would be dis
tributed through twelve months Of thu
year. This is the reason the railroads
want good roads,"

A AID IN NEW YORK.

What 1t In Accomplishing For Road
Improvement.
In q recent bulletin reviewing the
work Of road improvement in New
York state State Engineer Bond says:
The legislature appropriated $4,000
for road Improvement this year, and
In the three years In which road I'M
provement work has been In progress
20 roads, having a total mileage OF 40
miles, have been improved at a cost OF
1857, 800; that SO roads, having a mile
age Of 122 miles, are now undergoing
improvement at q cost Of $773,73O;
that funds have been awarded for the
Improvement Of 3 roads having a mile,
age of 7 miles at q cost of $56,600, and
that plans have been approved by
boards Of supervisors Of IL counties
for the Improvement Of Al roads, hav'
Ing a mileage Of 134 miles, which
would impose an expense upon the
state and the counties, If adopted. OF
$1.091,4 43.
When all the roads already improv'
ed, those under improvement and
those whose improvement Is suggested
have been improved, 100 will have
been constructed in % counties, GOV
ering 80 miles, at a cost Of $2,2S9,'
874.35, Of which the state will have paid
one-half and the counties one-half.

ROAD PROGRESS IN OHIO.

Improvement Does NJ: Keep Pace
With the Demand of the Times.
Ohio has by no e Kept pace IN
the matter Of roadbuilding throughout
the country districts either with the
progress made In steam railways or IN
the improvement Of city streets. where
within the past twenty-five years the
old macadam and bowlder thorough
fares have given way almost entirely
to the more perfect and lasting granite,
brick and asphalt, says the Cincinnati
Commercial Tribune.
It Is true there Is in this state q Law
which enables the townships through
out Ohio to improve their road system,
known as the free turnpike law, and It
has done wonders for the common
roads of the state during the twenty
five years or more that It has been 10
force. Perhaps a few other states have
similar laws, but they are not general.
The ordinary country roads throughout
the country generally are, as they have
always been, things to avoid In the sea-
son Of freezing and thawing, during
which they are usually impossible.

HOW TO BE HEALTHY.
Rules to BE Observed In the Matter
of Diet and Exercise.

Rules to BE Observed In the Matter
Of Diet and Exercise.
Positively avoid a habitual diet ON
posed too exclusively Of one kind Of
food, such as meats or cereals. Such
a diet leads inevitably to disease.
Many cases Of sickness, palpitatons,
Bcurvy, skin diseases and headache
are directly due to this improper diet.
Bear in mind that sugar and all
sugared or slrupy substances, unless
sparingly used, are the most injurious
Of the foods in ordinary use They
render digestion imperfect and by
their seductive taste r liable to in
duce o~vereating.
Eat sparingly of fruit preserves,
veal, pork, young lamb, kid, ham, ba-
con, sugar, vinegar, spices, fats, oils,
fried foods, pastries, cakes, rich. des-
serts, strong grayies, hot freshly baked
bread and foods which form adherent
pastes.
Avoid cold drinks at mealtime, ex-
cept in hot days. Avoid uncomforta-
bly, hot drinks. Avoid eating at irreg-
ular hours. Never override your Ape
lite, which Is the best index Of the
amount Of food you need, except In
the course Of diseases that require q.
special diet.
Satisfy your appetite, not your glut-
tony; satisfy your thirst not your
craving.
Salt your food sufficiently, because
salt is an aid to digestion, but not
more than needed to suit the taste.
Eat less rapidly and chew your food
more. The stomach wants only well
chewed food. The teeth were made
for that special purpose. If they are
poor or missing, seek the dentists aid.
Avoid Violent exercise and severe
mental exertion just after meal but 8
moderate exercise, as walking, Will
aid digestion.
Wash your hands with soap and wa
ter before each meal, even If they do
not appear unclean.
Brush your teeth inside and outside
at least once a day, and rinse your
mouth after each meal.
When your stomach is out Of order,
give 1t a rest by fasting half a day or
by taking only a little fluid food.
Remember that the wholesomest
meats are beef, mutton and poultry
and that beef and mutton are most
easily digested and wholesome when
broiled, roasted or stewed, not fried.
Remember that pure water Is the
most natural and wholesome beverage.
A glass Of pure water every morning
before breakfast will 60 far toward
preventing sickness and extending life
toward the century mark.

How to Make Potato Nests.

Lattice potatoes are an excellent &C
compartment to the fish course and aft
er a few trial efforts are easily prepar-
ed. Wash and pare the potatoes and
let them stand for a time In Ice water.
Cut them into very narrow strips,
throwing them into ice water as they
are cut. Then drain and thoroughly
dry enough to pack into a strainer
which is about the size of a teacup and
force into the middle Of the potatoes a
smaller strainer. Fry this In deep,
very hot fat. When a golden brown,
remove the two strainers and stand the
potato nest on soft brown paper. Re-
peat the process until there Is a nest
for each person. Before serving place
them on a tin in the oven to heat. ELL
the nests with fish Ia refine and serve
on q bed Of cress.

The Caro- of Earth Roads.

Earth roads should be repaired, par
ticularly in the spring and fall Of the
year, but the mistake Of letting them
take care of themselves during the
balance of the year should not be
made. The greatest need Of the COM
mon road In this country is daily or
weekly care. A road receiving daily
attention will require no extensive re-
pairs and instead Of becoming worse
will gradually improve. 1t is minute
and frequent homeopathic treatment
that the earth road needs.
