II Is nearly forty.four years since
West Virginia was torn from vir,
ginia, as q civil war measure. and
made q separate state in the union.
The United States supreme court,
far removed from the tumult and
the shouting Of the civil strife. has
been hearing legal arguments this
week on the question whether
West Virginia should be made TO
assume IA share of the ante bellum
debt Of the Old Dominion. Virginia
before the al had contracted n
debt Of some $33,0 OO, 900 In building
canals, turnpikcs and other Internal
improvements, and some of this wai
expended In the territory that Is
now West Virginia, Whether this
legal controversy will ever be ter.
minated may be open TO doubt, but
clearly there Is no hurry. If one may
Judge by the fact that over forty
years have already elapsed since
the disruption Of the original com,
monwealth. On the question oi
equities, Virginia doubtless had Il
good case, but what tn illegal as
poets may he only the supreme
court could venture to speak au
4huritatively. Mr.. Blaine, In his

Treasury Surplus For Roads.

A unique good roads bill has been
introduced in Congress by Represen-
tative John Sharp Williams, Of Mis-
sissippi. It's object is to distribute
the surplus in the Treasury. OF the
United States to the several States
and Territories for the sole purpose
of improving the roads therein.
The bill provides in effect that it
shall be the duty of the Secretary OF
the Treasury at the end of each fiscal
wear to take an account of all the
funds in the Treasury and after de-
Quoting from said sums the amounts
required by law to be kept in the
Treasury, the remainder, if any, shall
be declared surplus. The Secretary
of the Treasury must then immedi-
ately provide for the distribution OF
this surplus, not exceeding $25 ,o00,-
600 annually during the continuance
of the proposed law, on per capita
basis to the States and Territories,
to be computed from the last general
census, and shall prorate the same
accordingly, for the so1e purpose OF
improving the postal roads in said
States and Territories, under such
rules and regulations as the States
and Territories may provide.-The

GAS FAvoRlTE SUICIDE ROUTE
The Pistol Is Close Second-Aceoro'
ino to the Annual Report.

Asphyxiation by gas is stlll the
fayorite method Of suicide in Mannat-
tan. There were, according to the
report of the coroners Of New YORK
County S9S suicides in 1906, and OF
. these 124 by gas. However, the pis'
tol route followed the gas method IN
q close second. There were llo VINO

Here is the remainder Of the list,
as the coroners present it, showing

The total number Of deaths which
are classified by the coroners as
homicides was SO. That does not,
however, mean that there have been
that many murders in the Borough
OF Manhattan within that time, for
the number held by the coroners TO
appear before the grand jury was
90. Two-thirds Of these We're for
shooting, stabbing and other forms OF
violence. There were also IN THIS
list no less than sixteen cases Wnere
the victims had been run over by
wagons, trolley cars or trains.
There were, however, more tnan
sixteen persons killed by being run
over last year. There were, in fact,
no less than 253 persons charged
with causing the death Of others Dy
running over them.
More deaths were caused In this
way than by any other during the
past wear. For there were only sixty
four cases Of homicide by shooting,
thirty-three by stabbing and forty
two by other forms of violence. Ele'
vators alone killed forty, while only
one man was kicked to death by a
horse in the whole Of the Borough
Of Manhattan.
The total number Of deaths due
to natural causes that were reported
to the office because they were known
as sudden deaths was 300 and Of the
causes, diseases of the respiratory

Considerable interest has been
awakened in the trial of new cleo
trio brake on New York City street
car. The power is furnished by the
trolley current. The motor man ap-
plies the brake with handle, SINH
lar to that of the ordinary air brake,
and releases by pressing foot ped
al. It is said that with the electric
brake the labor of the motor man is
greatly reduced, while the stops are
effected more smoothly and. easily.
There is no surging Of the car, the
reason offered being that the electric
brake can be released instantly,
whereas the air must escape from
the cylinder of the air brake before
the pressure on the wheels can be
relieved. To provide against failure
of the trolley current, device is fur
nished whereby the motor can be
short circuited, and the car thus
quickly stopped. - Youths Compan'

on his face. They began to come on his
arms, then on other parts of his body, and
then one came on his chest, worse than
the others Still he grew worse. At the
end of about year and half Of suffering
he grew SO bad had to tie his hands IN
cloths at night to keep him from scratch
ing. the sores and tearing the flesh. He got
to be a mere skeleton and was hardly able
to walk sent to the drug store and got

two months the sores were all well: he,
has never had any sores of any kind since.

For comfort perhaps the pneumat-
ic tire can never be excelled, but it's
tendency to puncture has induced
many attempts to find a satisfactory
solid, substitute. Hard rubber is not
sufficiently resilient, but a new COM
pound, called elastes, has recently
been tried in England, and the re-
suits are reported to be good. It
consists of mixture of glue, glycer-
in and chronic salts, dissolved to-
gether at a high temperature, and
forced, while still liquid, into the in
ner tube of the tire. It is said to
give about the same ease OF motion
as an air inflated tire. The use OF
this substance increases the weight
Of a wheel from twenty to forty
pounds, according to the size, but
an Offset for this is claimed in the
fact that extra tires need not be car
ried.

ROMANTIC DEVONSHIRE
The Land Made Famous by Phlpotts'
Novels.

Philpotts has made US familiar
with romantic Devonshire, in his fas-
cinating novels, 1.-The River" Chill
dren of the MIST etc. The charac-
ters are very human; the people there
drink coffee with the same results as
elsewhere. A writer at Rock House,
Orchard Hill, Bideford, North Devon,
states:
For so years I drank coffee for
breakfast and dinner but some .
wears ago 1 found that it was Droduc-
ing indigestion and heartburn, anu
was making me restless at night.
These symptoms were followed 6y
brain fag and sluggish mental con-
dition.
When 1 realized this, l made up
my mind that to quit drinking conee
and having read Of Postum, con-
cluded to try it. I had it carefully
made, according to directions, and
found to my agreeable surprise at the
end Of a week, that no longer SUI
fered from either indigestion, heart
burn, or brain fag, and that l couid
drink it at night and secure restful
and refreshing sleep.
Since that time we have entirely
discontinued the use Of the old kind
of coffee, growing fonder and fonder
of Postum as time goes on. My dl-
gestire organs certainly do their work
much better now than before, re-
suit due to Postum Food Coffee, am
satisfied.
LAS a table beverage we find (for
all the members of my family use it,
that when properly made it is most
refreshing and agreeable, Of delicious
favour and aroma. Vigilance IS,
however, necessary to secure this, for
unless the servants are watched they
are likely to neglect the thorough
boiling which it must have in order
to extract the goodness from the
cereal." Name given by Postum Co.,
