the pine woods OF Maine and whose re.
markable cures attracted widespread at
tention among the medical fraternity. He
declares that it will heal the lungs and
cure any cough that is durable and will
break up an acute cold in twenty y-foul
hours. The ingredients can be secured
from any prescription druggist at d
small cost and is easily mixed at home

destrian in the road or on the sidewalk,
he turns to the right
The requirement to turn to the left is
matter of statute law in Great Britain,
having been made a part of the highway
act of 1885. In the United States the
exactly opposite rule has been enacted
into law in several States, and in the
other States is so much matter of COM
mon usage that driver who violates it is
responsible for the damage caused by any
collision. On the continent of Europe it
is the general rule to turn to the right.
Turning to the left seems to be an insular
popularity of the United Kingdom.
Why opposite rules should prevail in
England and in a part of the United
States which, like New England, de-
rived all its ordinary customs from old
England, is not clear; but the reason for
turning to the left is perfectly plain. 1t
is the custom, not only in England but
in America. for the driver to sit on the
right side of the vehicle; and the driver
who sits thus can keep his wheel in view,
and also that of the passing conveyance,

returning prisoners need just as much
the helping hand and the carefully sought
out chance as does the given-up man,
handicapped because he never did honest
work before.
We rejoice over many happy results
following the first chance that we have
been able to find for such men. Some are
making their mark in the business world
to-day; some have succeeded in the pro-
fessions; and many have lived down the
past so effectually as to be received and
trusted by their families and old business
associates.
Hope for our country's prisoners, and
hope for the solving of this great problem
to-day, come from within the prison, not
from without. If one can fill the man
with hope, if he can be truly inspired to
work out his own salvation and to prepare
himself for the coming day of liberty, he

THE rule of the road
L is curiously different
in different parts of
the Anglo-Sagon world.
When, for instance, an
American who is riding

rider or conveyance in

right. The Briton, on
the contrary, turns to the
left. But if a walking

some crime they have be-
lied the name. The out
look for them is as black
and foreboding as for
their companions in the
prison who come from
poor homes and have had
neither education nor
Cultured surroundings.
These men have not been
used to toll with pick
and shovel or in any other
department of labor
where the past of a man
IS not of great moment to
the employer. The only
work they know how to
do is that which is in a
line where the man must

der.
1t may be. therefore,
that the practice of turn
ing to the left with vehi-
cles has grown up since
the times of peace and
security on the road have
made weapons unneces-
sary. In America we NAV
have preserved the earlier
usage of England itself,
as has been the case with
other customs that have
been dropped there but
carefully preserved here.
