THEY GROW.
Good Humor and Cheerfulness from
Right Food.

Cheerfulness is like sunlight II dis
pels the clouds from the mind as sun
light chases away the shadows of
night.
The good humored man can pick
up and carry of load that the man

Anything that interferes with good
health is apt TO keep cheerfulness and
good humor In the background. A

Condition of the Water.
ROADLESS AMERICA.
Transformation Taking Place-Good
Road idea Grows.

From the Technical World Magazine.
From the maledictions scattered broad
cast in the mire of roadless America by
despairing bicyclists fifteen years ago
hopes Of better things have taken root
No gift of prophecy is now required to
foresee time when these hopes will have
SO far materialized that a team, if 1t is a
good one. will be able to haul an empty
wagon over the gumbo roads of the Mis-
sissippi valley in spring. and the public
highways of the south will be SO well
buoyed that light draught automobiles
may navigate them in comparative safety.
From every part of the country comes
the same encouraging news. Sixteen
states now have highway commissions
that are trying in various ways to sup
ply the greatest need of the nation. which
is good roads. At one extreme is New
York. which. in 1905, voted to expend fifty
million dollars in building roads. Under
the plan adopted the state will build and
maintain 1882 miles connecting the prin-
cipal cities, and pay one-half the cost Of
400 miles of local roads to be built by
the counties.
state in the Union In extent or road mile
age. where the use of the public high
ways is so vast that If teams enough
could be assembled to do in one day all
the travelling done in the state in year
the line would reach once and half
around the earth. which doles out an an
nual appropriation Of 5000 to defray the
expenses of the state college faculty while
acting in the capacity of highway COM
mission. With this introduction the au-
thor writes of what is being done and
what can be done to transform roadless
America, and the article is illustrated
with fine photographs.

Thunder and Lightning.

From the New York Press.
The oldest astrologers and the youngest
astronomers are unable to account for the
amazing scarcity of thunder and light
ming this season. Thus far-and it is
nearing midsummer-we have had only
two good. old time thunderstorms, accom-
panied and egged on by chain lightning.
The grandest sound known to man is
that of the artillery of heaven cut loose
on the afternoon of white-hot day when
life is a burden and all hope of relief is
dead. like to hear the rotten roll. as of
fat beer kegs bouncing over the clouds:
l like the fierce flash of forked lightning.
resembling the tongue of rattlesnake
giving warning: / rejoice at the terrific
explosion. so clean-cut. so sharp, SO un-
erring. We used to count our pulses be-
tween the flash and the shock, each beat
meaning that the bolt struck mile away.
Six beats, six miles.
Many persons are afraid of lightning.
1 have known highly intelligent men and
women to seek safety in feather beds
during a storm, or sit In the center of a
room on blankets. But there Is always
one consolation-you will never see the
bolt that kills you.

WILD GOATS IN HAWAII.
Destroy Young Trees-Hunting
Animals Popular Diversion.

Destroy Young Trees-Hunting
Animals Popular Diversion.
Honolulu Cor. Forest and Stream.
The wild goat of Hawaii has in recent
years become a serious menace to agri-
culture in various parts of the territory
Secure among the almost inaccessible
cliffs of the mountains, thousands Of these
nimble animals find a congenial home. and
although no systematic efforts have as yet
been inaugurated for discriminating them
they are nevertheless extremely wary and
difficult to approach.
All of the Islands in the group have
rugged mountain country, OF no value ex-
cept for the watersheds they afford. but
this Is Of greatest Importance. Although
the rainfall on the windward sides of the
islands Is very heavy. in some instances
ranging as high as twenty or thirty inches
a month, the lee sides in many cases get
almost no rain at all, all the moisture be-
ing wrung from the steady northeast
trade winds by the chill Of the high alti-
tude of the great volcanic ranges over
which they pass.
These dry districts in many instances
have splendid soils. and extensive irriga-
ton systems have been built to carry the
water from the wet sides of'the mountains
in order that they may be cultivated. But
owing to the precipitous nature of the
mountains and the porous character of the
volcanic formations, without good cover
ing of forest growth to hold the rain the
greater part of it runs off to the ocean in
foaming torrents almost as fast as it is
precipitated.
The territorial government is doing
much in the way of forest planting and in
the encouragement Of forestry, but its
work has in some Instances at least been
undone by the wild goats and cattle. Not
only do the goats destroy the foliage OF
the smaller vegetation. but when this sup
ply falls short they dig out and eat the
tender roots.
Goat hunting is popular diversion in
some parts of the territory and as sport
Is by no means to be despised Although
the animals are numerous, 1t requires
some hard tramping and climbing to get
to their haunts. and then a true aim and
good eye for distance in order to have
much success. Occasionally parties are
organized and week or more spent In
goat shooting with the result that some.
times several hundred are slaughtered.
