~ ernment aid TO good roads
Is not a national neces-
slty, affecting all sections of the coun-
try and all classes, and therefore de-
Imanded as good public policy. Many
lof the very foremost men Of the coun-
try have declared in its favor, and
the feeling is constantly growing that
lit should prevail. OF course, here
and there we find it opposed by spe-
'cious argument and strained interpre-
itatlons of the constitution, but THIS OPP
position cannot stand in the face Of
THE practice Of the government in road
building many years ago, and at this
day in Porto Rico, where we have
constructed more highways in the
past five years than did the Span
iards in four hundred years; and in
the Philippines, where we are build
ing highways every day in the year
There is more serious consideration
being given TO the subject of good
roads to-day than any other that can
be named, and as a question fraught
with vital concern to the internal
commerce Of the country and to its
religious, educational and social adj
yancement, it is a sure thing that the
call for national aid VIII have to be
heard.
1t is not the farmer alone who is
affected by bad roads; trade condi-
tlons are disastrously affected wher-
ever bad roads exist. Good roads are
necessary 10 every vocation and every
interest. The cost of bad roads has
been so often presented that repeti-
tlon would not strengthen argument.
The main fact is the clear fact that
bad roads are a curse 10 the nation
and disgrace to our boasted Ameri-
canism. There is a necessity for gov
ernment aid to better roads and It
ought to be extended with the least
possible delay. In every civilized
country but ours government has fos-
tered improved highways. Wherever
improved highways have been built
the people are happier and the coun-
try more prosperous. In the United
States there has been marvellous
progress Notwithstanding bad roads.
We would have progressed a thou
sand fold more under an improved
system Of highways. A change is
needed here. The common roads
should be made adequate to the neces-
stiles of the country. There is no
special class In the discussion. 1t is
n great economic question, rapplng
loudly for recognition, and as all the
people are involved the government
should step In and cooperate with
the States in its solution. While
many prominent men are now active
In support Of the Brownlow-Latimer
bills for national aid, the people in
their primary capacity have duty to
themselves to perform in the matter.
Every citizen knows how to press
the question on his Congressman. The
good roads camp-fres ought TO be
lighted I'm every constituency in the
States. The proposition is strong in
Congress. Let its friends get to work
and make it stronger by direct COM
munication with those we send to re-
fiect the public viii in Washington.
IL the people who have made the gov
ernment what it is and upon whom II
must rely IN every crisis cannot be
heard in the national councils. then
the Caesars of the day have grown
TOO great on public meat, and we soon
shall have fallen upon still more evil
times.

Side Doors on street Cars.

In few places is the value Of sec
Unds more forcibly demonstrated than
in the handling Of the homeward-
bound crowds in large cities. Expert
ments looking toward better time
have recently shown that great por-
tion Of the aggregate time is lost in
stops, and side doors on the cars
promise the greatest relief. In recens
tests the stops on a train thus equip
ped averaged 'T.6 seconds as compared
with an average of 81 seconds on
trains fitted only with end doors.

What is believed to be the largest
white sapphire ever discovered has
just been brought to Berlin by M.
Heppmer. a German engineer, who
has resided for many years in Brazil,
where he possesses several mines.
Before cutting the stone weighed 1880
carats, but a flaw caused the cleavage
of a piece weighing 400 carats. This
piece will produce a cut stone of 100
carats. That cut from the larger
piece weighs AIS carats, is two inches

that appeals to the average house

tions to the list are the two here
pictured. One is white porcelain
lemon squeezer in metal frame and
the other pickle jar and fork. The
distinctive point about the latter,
which is simple in shape and easy to
cTAan, is the handle, which is SO ar
ranged that it drops back and forms
a holder for the cover. This is a con-
venient arrangement, as it is not al
ways an easy matter to satisfactorily
dispose of the pickle jar cover.

An Offer From nember of the Board
 Supervisors.

The poor house wagon is being kept busy. At least one trip a day is made and some days the comings and goinGs of the wagon are more numerous Yes terday it drew up in front of the office of the board of supervisors and a man stiff with a~e and@rheumatism was helped into it by a well dressed and intelligent looking young man who then climbed in beside him for he too had become a subject ot charity He had come here hoping to find relief from tuberculosis. His last cent was gone and the only open door was that of the poor house
 The supervisors saE that there are from one to four cases like that every day. The young men in nearly all cases are well dressed and most of them are persons ot refinement. While they had their health they were able to live well on good salaries as teach CTS or occupants of good clerical posi- lions. Some of them receive regularly small sums but not nearly enough to support them, from friends or relatives in the east.
 A member of the board of supervi . sors yesterday suggested that now is 2 good time for a body of associated charities to do something. These young men are not fit subjects for the

CT herewith write out in full the be- ginning and end of that terrible disease eczema" says Mrs. Wm. Ryer, Elk River, Minn., (which caused my babe untold suffering and myself many sleepless nights. My babe was born seemingly a fair, healthy child, but when>she was three weeks old swell ing appeared on the back of her head, and in course of time broke. It did not heal but grew worse, and the sore spread from the size of dime to that of dollar. used all kinds of reme- dies that I could think of, bat nothing seemed to help; in fact, it grew worse. Her hair fell out where the sore was, and feared it would never grow again. It continued until my aged father came on a visit, and when he saw the baby he told me to get Cuticura Soap and Ointment right away.
 "To please him I did so, and to my surprise by their use the sore began to heal over, the hair grew over it, and to-day she has nice head of hair, her skin is as fair as lily, and she has no scar left to recall that awful sore, and it is over eight months and no sign of its returning"

poor house. Most of them are suffer CTS from tuberculosis. There is no possible hope of an improvement of their condition at the county hospital where they are not welcomed by the other inmates. It is true that they are kept in 2 separate ward but that is now filed and overflowing and a part of the stewards house is occupied. There is a common reading room at the institution but the presence of the tuberculosis sufferers is resented there.
 The member of the board said that if the associated charities would take the matter up the county could offer material assistance in this way: It costs $1O.50 a month to keep an inmate of the poor house. The board is for bidden by the law to spend more than that sum on the care of an indigent living outside the institution but in such cases as those which have heen described the board could be easily in duced to contribute to an associated charities fund for this purpose as much as the law would allow it to do say $10 month for each subject. Many of these subjects. as has been men toned, receive small sums from home. Such contributions could no doubt be made available also.
 It would seem that it would be bet ter for those who are desirous of do- ing something for this class of sui ferers to meet the supervisors half way and do something immediately than to hold meetings and flood the daily press with suggestions for the relief on an extensive scale, of in digent tuberculosis sufferers.
 The member of the board of super visors mentioned the case of one young man who had applied for relief the day before. When he came to Phoenix he took uD his residence at q boarding house in the outskirts of the city. It was a most respectable place and the cost of living there was not excessive though it was more than it would have been at . restaurant. He remained until his money got low then he made an arrangement to help about the place for his board. That arrange ment lasted until the rainy weather came on. He could no longer support himself and then he was compelled to fly to tho next to the last asylum for 7he poor-the county hospital. The last one is t,l2 grave. In the case of a tuberculosis patient who is driven to the former, the journey to the lat ter is 2 s.-ort one

A mother wrote us recently that she had to keep Scott's Emulsion under lock and key her children used to drink 1t whenever her back was turned. Strange that children should like something that is so good for them. It's usu- ally the other way. Scott's Emulsion makes children comfortable, makes them fat and rosy-cheeked. Perhaps that's why they like it so much-t they know it makes them feel good.

Some of the houses along the route had
to be shored up while the work was in
progress,
Though the work was allowed TO proceed
the Appellate Division has not vet finally
approved the change, but yesterday Il
handed down its opinion as to the terms on
which that approval will be granted. Justice
says:
ors or lessees Of the road should see At to
refuse to make what | consider a fair and
reasonable arrangement with the property
owners, then the city Of New York should
be compelled TO construct its road according

court perform the constitutional duty i'm
posed upon il Of determining whether or
not this road should be built and operated

Justices Ingraham, Hatch, Lau ghlin and
Patterson concur in holding that no final
