Three excellent pictures are given of
the change of line and lessening of grade
between Layman and Shaft, near this
place.
The new road, of AZ per cent grade,
shows what is sought by State Aid re-
form, and the old road with its 10 PR
cent. grade, illustrates what the old
timers thought was the deSidrrafun1. and
what ebullients like G. E. Brant want
continued.
The Nagn-ine strongly advocates the
retention of competent road otficiaIs-as
matter OF economy, particularly in the
interest of continuing Improvement
To this end it says "a bill will be in
troduced in the New York legislature,
next session, making it obligatory upon
each county to have county highway

OF good-roads matter, especially good,

One of the most interesting state
ments made recently concerning the
much discussed Cooper theory, that
has spread over the country during the
past year, is made by e. Fl. Lambert,
retired business man, whose home is
at lis Francis Street, Everett, Mass.
Mr. Lambert has this to say in con-
nection with Cooper and his medi-
cines: Some time ago | read an ar
ticle about this man Cooper. in which
he claimed that stomach trouble was
directly responsible for most III health.
He went on to say that, although his
medicine did nothing but get the ston-
ach in sound condition, it would. in
many cases, remove kidney and liver
trouble and various other ailments.
He argued from this that the stomach
was the main cause of sickness, and
stated that the success he has had
with his medicine was due entirely
to this fact.
Il am now fully convinced that this
theory is correct, and believe Cooper
has a really remarkable medicine

ON the London Hospital.l

(From the London HospltaLJ
Baron Larrey, the prince of Red
Cross surgeons, to whom humanity
owes more than to the great master
whose tools he had to repair, touched
the heart of the question of humane
tartan work on the battlefield when he
declined to certify as ut for service
the men whose lives he had saved by
boiling down the chargers of Napo-
Icons hussars into soup.
The soldier looks to the surgeon to
aid him in the balancing accounts af-
ter a battle. on the one hand we are
making war more sanguinary than IL
has ever before been, on the other
we are attempting to rid the battle
field Of it's grewsomeness by helping
and succoring the wounded.
