Told Of Eccentric Author.

There has been a revival Of inter
est in Germany in all that pertains to
Vischer. the eccentric author. due 10
the celebration of the one hundredth
anniversary of his birth. One of the
stories told Of him is Of his adven-
ture with an American girl. He was
busy with his treatise on esthetics,
which afterwaTd became famous, when
the girl secured the next room to
his. and played on the piano for hours
at a time He begged for quiet, but
was told that if he did not like his
room he could leave He had occu-
pied his apartments for IA years. and
was loath TO change so one day he
burst from his room, foaming and yell
ing like mailman, and so scared the
pianist that she moved the next day.
1t was Vischer too. who, while In
Italy, became angered at a waiter in
a cafe. and being short on Italian
phrases. held the waiter by the coat
tail, while with the other hand he
searched a pocket dictionary for the
Italian word meaning scoundrel. As a
centenary gift Vischer's letter from
Italy has been printed by his SON.

About as uncalled for an invention
as has lately come to notice is the lip
less kiss which New York young
lady offers an unappreciative world
under the impression that she is filing
a long felt want.
As near as we understand 1t the par
ties to the first and second parts sit at
respectable distance and work the
solar plexus according to printed di-
rectlons. The result, according to the
inventor is satisfactory thrill.
That might satisfy the unsophisti-
Gated, but old fashioned people who
had been brought up on the old meth
Cd would hardly have the patience to
practice it when they already know a
way by which they can get quick and
satisfactory action.
Doubtless every person has seen
ones Of the opposite sex that they
would prefer TO kiss that way if at all,
but the world would have to grow
much more sedate before true lovers
would agree to patronize that variety.

Bad Roads Expensive.
Shreveport Times.

Shreveport Times.
Statistics recently furnished
by the Department of Agricul-
ture show that it costs the far
mer from Is cents to 80 cents to
haul his products to market or
to the nearest railroad station
for shipments. This estimate is
based on the average country
road, including. both the good
and the bad. Commenting on
this phase of the good roads
question, the San Antonio EX-
press says:
Hauling cotton is particularly
expensive, the average cost be-
ing given at q cents a ton for
each mile, but in many cases the
cost in Texas is very much great
err than that. For example.
SOmervell country reports that
the hauling is mostly done by
hired teams at 80 cents d bale.
AS the average weight of a bale
of cotton is about five hundred
pounds that would mean about
81 a ton for a distance of about
ten miles and considerably more
for a greater distance.
"The figures in detail by the
Agricultural Department, are
Interesting. but they would pro-
badly be more instructive and
engaging if comparisons were
made between the cost of haul
ing over dirt roads and rail
roads. and as between the hard.
smooth country road and the
highway that is bad at best and
practically impossible during the
wet season. The figures thus
displayed might have the effect
of opening the eyes of reading
and thinking farmers to the ad-
vantage of good roads in a way
not before impressed upon them.
1T is a curious fact taxpayers
living in the cities and towns are
nearly always more willing to
vote a tax upon themselves for
public road construction and i'm.
provement than are the farming
classes who would be more direct
beneficiaries of the results. es-
pecially where the improved
roads are somewhat removed
from the city. The only explain.
alton is that the urban citizen,
being accustomed to paved
streets, is more appreciative OF
the advantages of good highways
than the rural citizen who has
never had much acquaintance
with them"
It is a fact, too, that it is more
expensive to maintain dirt roads
than it is to maintain roads which
have been paved. In fact, the
system of socalled good roads
that we have been trying to build
in Louisiana are not good roads
at all but mere makeshifts that
have to be rebuilt within the year
at an expense that means a con.
slant drain on the public rev
enues.
