GOOD ROADS ADVICE.
Minnesota Highway Commissioner
Gives Some Pertinent Points.

George w. Cooley. secretary and
engineer of the Minnesota high
way commission, has issued the
commissions bulletin No. I. 1t
deals in detail in instructions as
to the proper method of building
substantial roads in various kinds
OF soil at the least expense, says
the Motor News. Mr.. Cooley
gives the following rules for the
guidance of road overseers through
out the state:
Keep all lines of drainage open.
Keep ruts and hollows out of the
road by continuous filling and
dragging. Keep stones, sod and
all vegetable matter off the road
surfaces. Fill all low places and
holes with the same material of
which the road is built.
See the culverts are in condition
to take care of the flowing water,
especially before freezing up time,
and open them up as early in the
spring as possible. Don't change
your men and teams around too
much. They will give more salts.
faction if kept at the same class
of work.
Keep weeds and brush away
from the sides Of the road as much
as possible, and wherever the road
is too much shaded, especially if
it is clay, trim the trees up to a
height OF eight feet above the
ground.
Never disturb a government cor
ner or boundary monument with
out seeing that it is established
by some competent surveyor and
with the knowledge of the ada
cent proprietors. 1t is their prop
erty, even though it is in a public
highway, and you will be liable
for damages if you disturb it with
out giving due notice.
All the material within the
limits of the right of way may be
used for road purpose only. You
have no right to the grass or timber
or to the earth or stone not requir-
ed for the road. All such belong
to the abutting owner to the center
of the road, but in his use or taking
of them he lis limited by the right
of the authorities to make what
ever use OF them that is necessary
for the improvements and protec-
tion of the public travel.

COBBlER'S FUEL SCHEME is OUT
Chemists Discover Ellmore's Secert
That Burns Ashes.

The remarkable ash-burning
secret discovered by John Fillmore,
an Altoona, Pa, cobbler, which
has excited attention almost the
world over, is out. Almost every
householder in Altoona is now con-
verting his ashes into fuel, with
great saving in coal bills.
Several we'll known chemists,
Immediately it was announced
that Fillmore had solved the prob
lem of obtaining heat from ashes,
set to work to try to discover the
formula. They were successful,
and here it is:
Common salt, one pound.
Oxdiic acid, two ounces.
Water, one gallon.
Mix and moisten a mixture con-
t$ining one part coal and three
IArts ashes, and a better fuel than
pare coal is obtained.
The ashes of anthracite coal burn
as readily as do those of bitumln-
GUS coal. This mixture will, upon
being placed upon a burning fire,
fuse into coke-like mass and de-
posit but little residue.
The chemical action of this COM
pound is thus explained: When
an aqueous solution of an alkaline
salt, such as common salt, is mix
ed with coal ashes, the result is
that mild Tyre is formed, which,
when mixed with any combustible
material, such as coal, and upon
the application of heat gives off
oxygen gas, thus enabling rapid
combustion.
The addition of oxalic acid
causes a chemical change of great
er value than the first, for the
reason that the second chemical
breakdown results in the forma-
ton kof carbide, which in turn
gives off acetyline gas, TINS adding
to the intensity Of the heat and
facilitating complete combustion.
1t is possible upon moistening a
small quantity of ashes, without
the addition of coal, to readily de-
tect the odor of acetyline gas, and
if the treated ashes are placed upon
lighted fire they will fuse and
burn to a fine powder.
The ash-burning compound is
now being use in many large in
dustrial and mercantile places and
it is claimed for it that it has re-
duced the fuel item to more than
half. It has eliminated almost
entirely the question of disposing
of ashes, which has been consider
able where great quantities of coal
are consumed.
The discovery has resulted in a
| number of counIicotio,s opd &c go
tarding the work of paving
contractors who have utilized
ashes as foundation for sidewalks.

1t was the contention of the late
John Fisk that evil must needs be
present; that morality comes upon
the scene when there is an alterna-
tive offered Of living better lives
or worse lives; that the action OF
the ideal man is to be determined
not by the pursuit of pleasure and
the avoidance of pain, but by the
pursuit of goodness and the avoid
ance of evil.

Joseph's victory shows how a
man, especially young man, is to
overcome temptation, The first
requirement is, Walk as in the all
seeing presence of God; the second,
Fight with the weapons of the
Word, in the light of duty; the
third, Avoid the occasions of sin;
the fourth, Firmness above all
things; and, fit must be, flight,
with loss of the good name, and
even oflife itself. (Lange.) Such
flight is more honorable than the
most heroic deed. (Calwer.) The
fear of God is the best means of
grace for avoiding sin and sham e.
(Lange.) In temptation to
adultery or fornication, flight be-
comes the most pressing necessity.
Qbid.) Joseph lets his mantle go,
but holds on to a good conscience.

Virtue by choice" like that of
Joseph, is the ever-accumulating
vlrile force that makes for right
living, The deliberate, intelli-
gent, free, continuous preference
OF the. good, the true, the beauti-

salntliness. The very constitution

designed to afford opportunities
for such preferences.

But Joseph, four thousand years
ago, splendidly realized Mr.. Fisk's
ideal. In Egypt, the home of I'M
chastity (martiaD, where marriage
inhdelity was prevalent (Herodo-
tus), under the. most seductive and
persistent solicitation, he kept
himself pure. Joseph shines bril-
liantly as an ancient example of
chastity. The example is inspira-
tional for young men of today.

John Ruskin makes fine dis
elimination, and a helpful one, in

ed and taken by guile; and protec-
ton, at best, can only be approxi-

Mr.. Fisk affirms that though, in
the process of spiritual evolution,
evil must needs be present, the
nature of evolution also requires
that it shall be evanescent. From
the general analogies furnished in
the process of evolution, we are
entitled to hope that, as it ap-
proaches its goal, and man comes
nearer to God, the fact of evil will
lapse into a mere memory, in
which the Swallowed past shall
serve as background for the real
lied glory of the present"
