The Bundle Of Sticks.
BY ELLIS o. JONES.

The old man called his son to him
to explain the mysteries of business.
My son." said he, "you have I'm
ished college and you must now make
show at least Of getting busy. Let
me explain to you few fundamen-
tails. Here have bundle of sticks.
See If you can break them"
The young man had been absent
from school with appendicitis at the
time his class read the old story Of
the bundle of sticks, and so he was
not next. He tried and tried to
break the sticks, but could not,
"See how easy it is" said the old
man, taking the sticks, cutting the
cord and breaking them one by one.
Gee, that's bum joke" said the
young man, as ne puffed his cigarette
and tried to look interested.
"It's no joke" said the old man.
1t is a parable. The bundle of sticks
taken together represent organiza-
ton, which is very desirable in the
case of capital. If, however, we look
upon the sticks as representing la
Dor. it is criminal and immoral for
them to be tied together. They would
then represent union. Always keep
your capital sticks tied together and
your labor sticks separate"
II should think what's sauce for
the goose is sauce for the gander,"
said the son, whose point of view
was still blunt.
ut depends on how big goose
you are" replied the old man.

Keeps to the Front.

And still the subject of good roads
keeps on coming to the front, first in
one district and then in another, yet
Alabama appears to be leading in the
general demands that are appearing
for good roads in the South. The
Gadsden Evening Journal has this
editorial on the subject:
Let us not forget that the matter
of good roads is one of supreme i'm
portance. We want to make the far
mers prosperous because it will add
to the prosperity of the city. And to
have the Etowah County farmer get
what is coming to him he needs good
roads and ready market for his
produce. Anything raised on the
farm should find a ready sale in any
quantity and for the cash. This can
only be done by providing market
through shipment to consuming cen
tres. A packing and shipping plant
that will take all farm products as
cotton is taken now and pay cash to
the farmer upon delivery Of the stuff
would prove a remarkable factor in
securing better times among those
who toll on the farms. 1t would put
money into circulation at all times
and allow the farmer to transact his
business on a cash basis. And this
would be real prosperity. So let us
strive for good roads and a cash
market.

THE JOURNALIST.

What is hero, in this modern age!
No longer crowned autocrats are kings:
The mighty warriors that old Homer sings
This is no time for prophet, seer or sage;
The tribute Of dream art vainly brings
For souls in thrall to earth's material things
No oracle or idler can engage.
The hero of the conquest of to-day
Is he who grasps the moment as it flies
The arbiter through strife and failure wise,
Protagonist of all life's moving play
The knight who curbs the wild barhnric Real
And breaks it to the fight for the Ideal.
Henry Tyrrell, in the Worlds Ami.

Dustless Roads Coming.

Dustless thoroughfares would, OF
course. promote the comfort of urban.
suburban and rural life. Up to the
present day of the motorcar, roads
made of broken stone have solved
best the dust problem. Rock dust
crushed under iron-tired wheels is
packed firmly into the broken rock,
binding it smoothly and compactly.
John Louden Macadam, of Ayr, Scot
land, perfected the method and gave
his name to a process. But motor
cars, With the propelling force of
their broad, soft-tired wheels, are
now at work all over the world tear
| ing Macadam's pavements TO pieces.
They crush no rock. they hurl the
surface dust binder" into neighbor-
ing fields. and they revel and loosen
the roads. Clearly, If civilization
Is to maintain its advances it must
find new way Of laying the dust.
or of making its road surfacings CO.
hesive.
Highway Commissioner MacDon-
aid, of Connecticut, chose dry, clear
days in the hot season last year to
build rock roads about the State
Capitol in Hartford, flooding them
with combination OF pitch and coal
tar, and rolling into this composition
top dressing of trap rock splinters.
The French engineers who had al
ready concluded that coal tar is the
best means of making roads with
stand the wear of automobile traffic,
have asked Mr.. Macdonald to tell the
International Road Congress in Paris
next fall why his roads in Hartford
are to-day apparently in as good con-
dition as when laid. Boston will try
the new method, and Highway Com
missioners in other States are about
to put it in practice
Dustis controlled in the fruit belts
of California by spraying with oils
possessing asphaltic bases. Drench-
ings with calcium chloride have also
been found temporarily effective.
The Office of Public Roads at Wash
ington Is investigating the problem,
and has ordered many experiments.
Prizes are offered by the Paris Con-
gress for scientific road surfacings,
and inventors in many countries are
striving for these prizes. When an
adequate surfacing is found, one
that makes no dust and needs no
dust to preserve its integrity, it will
have achieved more than it's primary
purpose. 1t will ward off disease
from millions of civilized nostrils and
beautify and make more valuable
property worth countless millions of
dollars, that abuts the worlds high
ways-New York Times.

Force r Of Habit.

There is certain Western Con-
gresham whose boundless affability
and habitual Observation-Disclosures have
occasionally led him into absurd mis-
takes. One day, during his last cam
paign, as he stepped from the train
at the station of his home town after
an arduous two weeks of stumping
and "glad-handing," his little daugh.
ter rushed up to him and kissed him.
The Congressman beamed upon her
with proud and tender parental eye.

added mechanically: And how is
your dear old father?"-Success.
