Judge Not.

A story is told in despatches from an Indiana town of a woman who sent her lover to jail 20 years ago for stealing her ring. It develops that the ring has been found where the young woman lost it, and the twain, cherishing deepest resentment these 20 years, now have become reconciled.
 One cannot but think of the heart burnings and travail of soul caused by the impulsive act of the woman: of what might have been had she not yielded to the passionate impulse to punish a suspect. Twenty years have been virtually wasted for them both. They might have entered into a happy married state and become the parents of family.
 Judgment has fallen heavily on them because the biblical injunction to Judge not that ye be not Judged" was ignored. The woman mis1udged. and created immeasurable unhappi- ness, not alone for the man, but for herself, in consequence. It is a hu- man trait to cry "Jaccuse"' when we feel ourselves to have been wronged. Greater temperance should be exer- cised in such contingencies. Holding to stubborn idea and refusing expla- nations has caused endless grief in this world-~a.We should be less ready to condemn without hearing.-Pitts- burg Post.

Cause of Misery.

Here is an observation from Car lyle: "All misery is faculty misdirect- ed-strength that has not yet found its way" This is undoubtedly true. All suffering and failure can be traced back to one getting out of the true path. It may not sometimes be ones t,Iult. Ignorance or environment may f~tervene and lead us astray. But all Srogress consists in one finding the true way of ones strength; to see that the faculty is rightly directed
 Finding this path is the end of Knowledge and civilization. This means doing the right thing physical ly, mentally, morally; obeying Gods law, that's it; that's all there is to it. That is what keeps the strength and faculty intact and makes life worth living. The perfectest mortal is the one whose faculty is rightly di- rected and whose strength has found its way. It is that that makes the true, manly, useful, happy life; that makes the life last longer and keeps it sweet and wholesome whileTit lasts. Ohio State Journal

BREED THEATER.
"A Pair of White Gloves" Splendid
 Motion Picture.

One of the many attractions at the Breed theater last evening was the big picture entitled A Pair of White Gloves, and this interesting story of thieving in high life was portrayed in e very capable manner, the various characters being peculiarly suited to the parts assigned to them, and the costuming, with the wealth of tropical surroundings in the background make it a picture of great beauty. Much of the spirited action takes place in the swell cafes of Paris and not the slight est detail is overlooked. The big west ern picture, Children of the Plains, met with instantaneous favor, and the entire picture from the first en- trance of the pioneer wagon to the last roundup of the cavalry, when it captures the Indian abductors, was closely followed.
 Many other fine pictures were shown, among them being The Bur glars Mistake, The Wooden Indian, The Chaperone. and The Rubes and the Bunco Men.

HER vows.

 o many were the vows she made In days gone by; I'm half afraid
 To now recall them here. I well remember once she said. ''No man is good enough to wed;
 The best man living here wouldn't marry. No. sirree! She didn't. She just married me. 'I'd never darn a husbands socks" She said, "such menial labor shocks,
 Nor sew his buttons on; Think you that I would stay at home To cook for him. when I would roam
 Such work l frown upon. That kind of toll I'll never do.' She makes splendid Irish stew. T could not be a poor mans wife To lead the stern and simple life,
 I'd plunge him into debt; I'd much prefer to single be. ldy father will take care of me, And all I want I get" That bonnet that she wears today She trimmed herself to save my pay. '1 don't like children. not at all I cannot bear to hear them sdUan
 And dread a dirty face. Their table manners all are bad, I'm sure I'd die if e'er I had
 A child about the place" And yet my goodness, how she nien Upstairs the minute baby cries.

FAIRGROUNDS POPULAR.
East and Northwest Sections of New

 The playground at the East street school. New Britain, this summer, will be managed by the Sunshine society. The Burritt school playground will be conducted by the civic department of the Woman's club.
 Two lots for baseball are needed, one near the East street school and one near the Polish school. as it is felt that the playground which Mayor Landers so generously donated is a trife too far away from both of these points.
 There is a large yard adjoining the Northern school It is possible that the Commonwealth club may establish playground there to take the place of the one which last year it conduct cd at the Rockwell school, but which will not be available this summer ow- ing to the building operations that will be in progress there

FARMERS AND IMPROVED ROADS
Success of the Latter Movement De
pends Upon the Farmer.

In an address before the GooL
Roads convention at Buffalo, n. Y, a
few days ago, the Hon. N. j. Bach
elder, master of the National Grange,
put the good roads situation in a nut.
shell when he observed:
1T is true that all industrial inter
ests are affected by the nature and
condition of the roads over which the
products of our farms are transported
to market, but it is the farmers who
suffer most from the inferior roads
which constitute so large percentage
of the road system of the United
States. And / am confident that 1t is
to the farmers that we must look as
the active force and influence that will
secure the enactment of the legislation
needed to bring about that improve
ment in road conditions that we all
desire"
That is right, exclaims the Prairie
Farmer 1t is to the farmer that the
public must look for the solution.
When he becomes thoroughly satisfied
the road question will be settled right.

DIRT RO6'-
How They Are Kept In Good condL
ton in Sections of Missouri.
DIRT RO6'-

There are three tools that are being
used in Missouri in keeping the dirt
roads in good condition, the grader,
the drag and the harrow, writes cor.
respondent of the Farmers Voice. The
grader, costing from 5000 to $500, is
used in rolling up the roads. This is
done, or, at least, should be done, in
the spring of the year. II the roads
are graded in the fall they get
the rains in tue late fall and some
times become almost impossible. To
say the least, they are miserably
rough. When graded in the spring the
roads get bad enough in the winter
and spring, and it is only of late
years that farmers have learned the
use of the drag and harrow in putting
them IN good condition again.
The road drag is easily constructed
by means of two timbers of split logs
from eight to ten feet in length and
about the size of heavy fence posts.
They may be fastened together with
oak cross pieces or by round spokes
extending from the holes in one piece
to those in the other. Good chains
can be fastened to the pieces to which
the double tree can be attached. If
the drag is extra heavy, two teams
may be used by hitching one at each
end. When dragging the road one
team should be kept a little ahead of
the other, so as to pull the dirt toward
the middle of the road. 1t is good
idea to have a sharp cutting blade of
steel on the underside of the front
timber If this extends about half an
inch below the edge of the timber and
slants forward it will help wonder
fully in cutting off the rough points in
the road.
The drag, though simple, is a great
invention. 1t is power for leveling
the roads in winter just after a dry
freeze or in the early spring when the
roads begin to dry. By running the
drag over the road, ruts and horse
tracks will be easily filled. If they
contain water, it will run out and
away, then the roads will soon be in
good condition.
The common field harrow, while not
SO good as the drag, is being used fre
Quently for leveling roads. Best re
suits are obtained by using the harrow
when the roads are rough, but dry. Il
acts as leveler, but not as a grader
by raking off the clods and bumps
pulverizing them and filling the de
rressions.
The neighbors in a community, will
the use of the drag and harrow, hav,
no trouble keeping the roads abou
their farms in very good condition
during most of the year. OF course
there are times in rainy seasons wher
the roads must be let alone.
