BUILDINGS TELL THEIR STORY.
Unwittinsiy They Reveal Secrets os
the Hearts Of Those Who Con-
stnueted Them.

The observer of buildings may read
with ease many a secret of the build
er's heart, whether it be pride, ambi-
tion, hypocrisy or solid worth. The
apartment building that is built to
SELF is easier to read than some
structures which are the expression
of composite thought. There is q
good exterior appearance. halls heavy
with STYLE" with tiled floors. marble
walls, and massive chandeliers. But
inside the apartments, on every hand.
there are evidences of a conscious
intention to skimp and neglect even
ordinary standards of good carpenter
work.
How unwittingly does the builder
rear this projection of his inmcst
character, Would II restrain him to
know that others regarded his work
as an open confession Of the very
things he would prefer to hide? 1t
might not change his character, but 1t
could cause him to make such build
ing as he would like to be thought Of
as corresponding to in character. II
this method OF interpreting builders
were to be popularized it might raise
the standards OF the industry. Our
contribution to this end would be a
proyerb. to pass current wherever
buildings are contemplated: "A build
ing is a confession in stone-"-Col-
1ier's.

Keep The Road Drains Unobstructed.

ibis is the time of the year, says
Curtis Hill, the state highway en-
gineer, for trimming brush,
hedges, etc. along the fence lines
and roadsides. In my travels over
the state the fact is very noticeable
that many farmers persist in
throwing these trimmings into the
side bitches of the roads or else
where they may be washed into
the bitches. This brush washes
down to the culverts and lodges
across or in the opening to choke
the culvert and thereby obstruct
the free flow of water, forcing it
onto or across the roadbed. The
result is a vast amount of damag g
to the travelled highway.
No man has a legal nor a moral
right to obstruct road drain. The
law is plain upon this. But it
should not he necessary to penalize
anybody for this infringement of
the law. Good roads should he
the desire of all and every man
should lend bis efforts toward keep
ing the roads passable, at least as
far as not to throw obstructions in
the bitches. Ii is impossible TO
keep a firm roadbed without drain
age and the bitches must be kept
open and unobstrncted in order to
get the drainage.
l sincerely hope that every man
will give this matter some thought
aud consideration. The road of.
iciaIs cannot make the roads with
out the aid and interest of the citi
zenship of the state. Certainly
not if the citizens persist in ignor-
ing the main feature of a good road
that is, drainage.
1t costs money to keep up the
roads and every property holder
is paying his part. 1t requires
some of that money to repair Il
washout or water soaked roadbed
caused by an obstructed drain and
withdraws just that amount from
the general Improvement of the
road. Do not impede your local
road official and thereby your own
interests by carelessIy or wilfully
obstructing the road drains.

retailers IN different parts OF Inc
state. Out of these twelve speci.
mems ten were found to be illegal
because of the adulterations OF
chemical preservalives they con
tanned. For instance, there wei q
three samples of "Hamburgcr'
(probably Hamburger steak an.
alyzed, and eac b of them contained
suiphite Of soda, chemical that
is under the ban of the pure food
law. and these samples were secnr-
ed 10 Jefferson City. where ocr
law makers have been eating all
the past winter. There was a
specimen Of bnckwheat flour that
was found to contain corn and
wheat starch in adulteration.
While each substitution may not
be actually harmful to the con-
sumer, it shows how the latter is
being defrauded. Five samples of
f1avoring extracts were examined
and only one stccd the test, One
brand Of vanilla was made up of
prune juice favored with caramel;
another, lemon, contained no oil of
lemon and was colored with coal
tar dye, and two of them contain
ed cumarin, whatever that is. A
specimen of coffee essence was
found to be misbranded, and con-
tanned licorice.
This is the state of things in our
manufactured food supply two
years after oar pure food law went
into operation. The commission
in a circular letter accompanying
its report says, that it is the inten.
tion Of that department to see that
the pure food law is strictly en-
forced. Evidently it is time, when
ten out Of twelve specimens exam
ined by it are found to be illegal.
This is the state of things under
which we are subzistiDg in these
days of adulteration and substitu-
tion. The condition is general,
and out or every twelve articles of
manufactured food products you
may purchase from your local
dealer. you here have an authorita.
tive assurance, based upon an an.
alytical test. that ten are impure,
and often unfit for consumption.

LIKED THE FIGHTING APOSTLE.
Name Of St. Peter Appealed to Heart
Of Soldier.

1t 10 we'll known that Elias Howe,
the inventor of the sewing machine.
not only enlisted as a common soldier
in the ranks of the Seventeenth Con.
necticut regiment. carried q musket,
and did full military duty during the
war. but at a certain juncture, when
national ffnances were at a low ebb,
he paid soldiers out of his own pocket.
Relative to this incident, P. T. Barnun
used to tell this story:
While Mr. Howe was counting out
the money referred to, a stranger. who
was . clergyman, entered the tent and
said he had heard of Mr.. Howe's lib
erality and had called to ask him to
contribute toward building q church
for his congregation
Church, church. said Mr.. Howe
without looking up from his bills he
was counting; building churches in
war times, when so much is needed to
save our country! What church is
it!'
"'St. Peters church. replied the
clergyman.
"'Oh, st. Peters, said Mr.. Howe:
well, st. Peter was the only fighting
apostolic cut a mans ear on I'll
so $500 on st. Peter, but / am spend
ing most Of my money on saltpeter

Maintenance OF Soil Fertility.

There has just been published
the summary of Il Paper by Pro
fessur ". II. Jordon. director of
the Geneva (N. Y Station, giving
his views with reference to meth
DDS of soil management necessary
to maintain fertility, as follows:
Thorough tiIlage, with efficient
machinery, to be giyen il possible
when the moisture conditions of
the soil admit Of satisfaction, pal
vcrization.
Frequent surface ti!lage, with
ut times of scanty rainfall, in order
to conserve the supply Of soil
moisture.
A sufficiently rapid rotation of
crops to insure good soil texture,
to allow the necessary frequency
of applying the fertilizing nIateri-
al, and as main result to secure
a paving stund of crops.
The introduction into the soil, at
frequent intervals, Of an amount
of organic matter necessary to
proper soil texture and water
holding power, either by Hpp'ica
tion of farm manure, by pIowine
under soiling crops or by the rot
tcning of the turf.
The scrupulous saving Of aii lhe
excrement of farm animals both
solid and liquid.
The purchase of plant food with
due reference TO the needs of the
farm management prevailing.
The maintenance in the soil of
those conditions of drainage and
aeration which promote The growth
of desirable soil organism, and the
introduction into The sell, when
necessary, of such organisms as
are essential - the growth of par

Trim Your Nails,

There is certain eminent physician
who, wiser than the children of light.
plods his way along in an unbeaten
track and has no peer as a diagnosti-
clan. He is always accompanied by
an expert manicurist, instead of a
white or colored valet. The human
nail, like the human hair" he said
to me. 'is much affected by physical
conditions. BARRIERS will tell you that
In certain seasons the beard, for in.
stance, grows nearly twice as fast as
at others. 1t is so with the nails. At
times, according to how we feel, the
free edge may be month in growing:
there is some retarding agent. At
other times it may grow in a week
Sometimes the nail has transverse
burrows. indicating periods of illness.
At other times it bears burrows run
ming lengthwise-a sure indication of
gout. My manicurist can tell by these
indications when your last sickness

ing Socialists the question: Sup
pose that you should elect social
list President and Congress. how
would you 60 about transferring
private property to public owner
ship!" The replies had almost all
the same trend, that this will be a
question that will be solved with
the developments of political econ
omy as the nation approaches a
state of Socialism. Not one of
them predicts or desires sudden
revolution from existing condi-
tions. One of the responses. from
Upton Sinclair, whose book, ''The
JUNGLE" drew public notice to the
packing house horrors in Chicago,
goes so far even as to assert that
Socialism will not be introduced
by a party bearing this title. but
by the Republican party. He be-
lieves that the existing great par
ties will so shape their policies as
to meet the trend of public opinion q
in this direction. There is also
quite rpanimity of opinion in the
replies that the method OF proceed
ure, when the time is ripe, for
transferring property from pri-
vate to public ownership, would
be the simple absorption of the
highly centralized and monopoliz-
ed means of production and dis
tribution, and that these will pass
from the one to the other without
the least industrial disturbance.
There is no demand in any of these
articles for seizure of and redis-
tribution of private wealth, a phase
in which Socialism is still viewed
by many. There is no threat of
resort to force, unless il is to COM
bat by such means the opposition
of organized private capitalism.

In most of the countries of south.

held pre-eminently sacred by the Bud

Hindoos, the birth of Vishnu having
occurred beneath its branches.
1t is 4 handsome tree, growing fire.
quently to a great height. 1t Is an
evergreen. which puts forth it's now-
ers in April, and the bark yields free
ly upon incision An acrid milk contain
ing considerable proportion of india
rubber. The leaves are heart-shaped,
long, pointed and vibrate in the air
like those of the aspen.
A branch of one of these trees, hav-
ing a notable history, was sent to q
city in the interior of Ceylon, where
it was planted, and became known by
the name of the bo-tree. For 200 years
it received the highest reverence. and
is still the chief object of worship to
the pilgrims who every year fock to
