n Ncic Model Road.

n Ncic Model Road
A model road is the Hummelstown pike. near
Harrisburg. 1t is made of mixture of water
gas tar, cement, liquid asphaltum road oil. car
bolic dlsinfecting powder sulphate of copper
and oil of wintergreen. The sulphate of copper
rs used to prevent the oils from becoming TO-
United and the wintergreen counteracts the odor
OF the others. There is nothing dsagreeable
about the smell A curious effect of the mix
ture is its disnfecting power. During the past
year there was not single contagious disease
in that section. The cost of applying the mix
ture is 80 cents square yard The cement
binds the dirt together like stone and the oil
makes it waterproof, so that it readily sheds
water. The road is never muddy, and. unlike
a tar road, does not become slippery in winter
time. Frost has no effect on it at ALL as the
mixture will not freeze. The cost of applying
is very small, as it is sprinkled on like water.
That the method and the mixture is a perfect
success has been shown this summer. Despite
the heavy automobile and wagon traffic, the
road is perfectly smooth and very hard and If
has met the test in every way

The Sayings of Mrs. Solomon

BIZ Mdude Marie

Heed my instructions, oh my daughter,
for not by mans attentions shalt thou
know his intentions. neither by the way he
treateth thee, but by the way he treateth thy
mother
Yea. as Irritation passeth unto love- and
love unto paranoia, and paranoia unto matri-
mony, and matrimony unto divorce, SO doth
a man first regard his beloved's mother as
boyle, second as a potentate, third as an
equal, fourth as a joke, fifth as nuisance,
and last as devil.
For when first a man meeteth a damsel
he standeth in awe of her mother. He look
eth on her as mystic power which must be
propitiated and appeased.
He is abashed in her presence. He regard
eth her wishes as law He speaketh of her
respectfully He bringeth her burnt offer
ings from the confectioners.
He talketh to her patiently of the wealth
er and the servant problem. He never in
terrupteth her.
Yet. in time he getteth used to her and
taketh her as a matter of course-even as a
part of the furniture. He treateth her as a
jolly good fellow.

He waxeth merry, even fippant, in her pres
ence. He speaketh TO her as the old girl. y
And again in time this passeth. Lo, she
beginneth to get upon his nerves He acteth
bored when she is in the room.
He sigheth with relief at her departure
He snffeth at her opinions. He calIeth her
"'That woman!''
Yet, say unto thee not until he regard
eth her with bitter enmity, not until he goeth
out of his way to oppose her, not until he
fiingeth the words of her mouth in thy teeth.
nor until he caleth her "she.'' shalt thou
know that he regardeth her as a future
mOther-in- law!
Then prepare thine ears for proposal
and grid up thy loins for the making of thy
trousseau. For the hour is at hand
Yea. and in all the days of thv life tiy
husband shall be able to think of nothing
worse to say unto thee than Thou art Just
like thy mother!' Selah.

AN EPISODE OF COURAGE

One blow with fist prevented ynching at
Newport, Ark, the other night. 1t was to have
been negro lynchng. A black desperate had
a black mob howled for his blood. Within the
jail were sixteen men accused of murder and
twenty other prisoners charged with minor of
lenses. 1t was these twenty who came to the
side of order They put out the lights in the
JAIL placed a guard over the cells of the six
teen murderers and sent word of their fidelity
to the sheriff and his deputy, who faced the mob
without, two men against thousand.
The mob had a white leader, who advanced
toward the jail The sheriff leaned his rifle
against the wall and walked forward to meet
him. One blow on the jaw Knocked the roteG

retreat became rout The would -ynchers
returned to the Jail, where they found the TWEEN

ness, over the cells of the murderers This is
narrative of fact 1t is not romance The
thirst for the blood of one of its own race II
may be doubted whether its bad cause was
strengthened by white leader, who must have
had a black heart. But it was not question of
race. 1t was one of maintaining the law against
riot. The courage of the two defenders outside
the walls was epic The cooperation of the
minor prisoners within was praiseworthy,
though its motive, obviously, may not have
been unselfish.

THE EARTH AND THE MOON

Does the earth shine on the moon at night
even as the moon shines on the earth! Scien-
lists think it must be so, surely, but they cannot
prove it nevertheless.
Well, one would hope SO, anyway The moon
it may be inhabited, despite astrological
doubts-would certainly seem to be entitled to
as much bay of reciprocity, if not otherwise.
Earth owes a great debt to the moonlight 1t
has brought much genuine pleasure to beings
here below; it has inspired our finest poetry,
perhaps, and it has famed into life thousands
of beautiful love stories and furnished the foun~
dation for romances untold
If earth has reveed all these years in benign
and glorious moonlight, we should all rejoice to

THE TROLLEY SITUATION

After being argued pro and con before the
public OF Globe for many months, il now seems
that the granting of a trolley franchise is near
ing solution, or, at least, that the people en-
trusted with &C ing on the matter are grad
ually approaching the point of doing something.
The something in this case will probably be
the submitting of the proposition to a vote OF
the people of this city, who are, in any extrem-
ity, the ones directly and vitality concerned,
and consequently the final arbiters.
The business of this apparently appeals to
the city council members, and unless some I'M
foreseen obstruction intervenes, it will doubt
less be voted to pass up the question of who
shall have the franchise to the citizens of Globe
in an election. The petition to do this already
presented to the council committee on trolley
franchises, will appeal to every fair minded
person as just and as the best solution of a
problem where it is easy to do injustice to any
one of the applicants for rights to operate a
street car system in Globe Past experience in
such matters, as gone through by other cities,
shows that the public is literally endowed with
that desirable quality known, in common par
lance, as "horse sense, and the submitting of
choice of franchise to this valuable attribute
of the people at large should bring the entire
matter to speedy and satisfactory solution
Before this settlement of the question can
take place, it remains for the council commit
tee, consisting of Alderman Rose Van Slyck
and Hgdon to make report and recommends
ton on the franchise proposition to the council
as whole; for the council to decide thereafter
which franchise or franchises shall be submit
ted to the public for a vote; and finally,
if the matter reaches this stage, for the cit
iZen body of Globe, the last tribunal, to make
its own decision and thus close the whole chap
ter of arguments proposals and counter propo-
sails written into the cty's administrative his
tory during the months since the franchise
question had its birth in the municipal council
chamber.
In the fact that action of some beneficial kind
now seems imminent, after plethora of DELHI
GRAFTON and debate there is cause for rejoicing
In the apparent certainty of servceable
street railway soon becoming part of Globes
urban equipment, there is, we may say reason
for harity 1t means increased population
and stimulus to industry. In short it marks
one more tremendous stride of Globe from the
status of mining camp toward being munic-
ipal unit with all the attendant conveniences
that make for desirable living
