Read Of the Future.

Ali road builders are now engaged in
trying to devise a road which will stand
motor traffic. Many new methods have
been tried, with varying degrees Of sue
cess, but none of them seems to be per
fectly satisfactory. If broken stones is
to form the wearing surfaac, then some
means must be found to hold the binding
particles so firmly that they cannot be
sucked out; and sufficient strength must
be given TO the mass to enable it to
withstand the sliding action of the
wheels at bends and turns. Several
kinds of tar macadam answer fairly
well, but they are expensive.
1t seems to me that the most promis-
ing kind of road for heavy automobile
traffic is what is called Durax in Eng
land 1t is a pavement of three-inch
irregular cubes of hard stone. laid in
small segments of circles. These stones
can be cut by machinery, and are com
paratively inexpensive; they are laid
without grout. but there seems to be no
reason for its omission except the cost.
Great quantities of this kind of pave
ment have been laid in Germany. -

out the soil from eighteen inches to

severity of the winters in your local

enough to prevent them freezing. An
inexpensive way to make the pond

clay. Cover the bottom and sides OF
the rord with this clay three or four
inches thick and beat firmly until solid

the water lilies in boxes or tubs. Use

ONE MILLION RED CROSS STAMPS
In the Hands CT naryland'S Tuber-
cnlOsIS Association.

The first supply of one million Red
Cross Christmas Stamps has been re-
ceived by the Maryland Association for
the Prevention and Relief of Tubercu-
losis and it is expected that the people
of Maryland will buy them in liberal
quantities, for use as Christmas greet
ings on letters and packages sent to
friends during December. An effort
will be made to have business houses,
professional men, lodges and other or
CARNATIONS use the stamps on their out
going mail, not only because the stamp
is attractive and carries a hearty greet
ing, but for the better reason, that the
money from the sales goes into the Red
Cross fund for the suppression of tuber-
cuiosis IN this state. Every stamp sold
is bullet in the warfare against the
White Plague in MARYLAND.
In all communities where they are
known, the Christmas stamp is very
popular with men, women and children
and millions Of them will go through
the mails during the next month. The
stamps sell at on cent each, which
places them within the reach of every
giver Of Christmas gift. and the use
of the stamp will enrich the kindly SEN
timent which prevails everywhere at
this season Of the year.
An order for any quantity, addressed
to Il. Writ Steele, Executive Secretary.

A Crying Need.

What is really wanted at the pres
ent time is a standard OF misconduct.
We are constantly doing things In
doubt. as If we hadn't right TO do
them.
The confusion caused by people do
ing things which in Nheir circum-
stances We had no right to expect is
the principal cause Of our troubles.
II ought TO be definitely settled, for
example, that any millionaire who
has. say, over hundred millions will
thereafter lead an honest life. II he
has only fifty millions his life should
be semi-honest, and II he has only a
paltry ten millions, then it ought TO
be conceded that he can loot a few
railroads or so until he gets on his
feet.
Up To, say, ten thousand a year no
man can afford to be dishonest He
ought 10 get up in the cars and give
up his seat 10 women under 50 at
least. and OF course he will not take
the chance of robbing any safe From
ten thousand up to one hundred thou
sand he can engage little dishonest
flyers by making one OF pool or put
ting through a land deal or SO for
variety
When he gets fifty millions or more
together. however, every man ought
TO ask himself plainly the uestion
whether from now on he ought not
to be a philanthropist Doesn't he
owe this TO his fellowmen?
The Detroit times., 1909-01-26
Overplayed His Hand.

Sir" began the bumptious appli-
cant for job. II have been told that
you are looking for a clerk
So am" answered the man at the
desk.
II suppose you want a person who
neither smokes, drinks nor swears
and never engages in games OF
chance? One whose character is the
best? One who is honest, Industrious
and thoroughly capable? One who will
stop at nothing. consistent with his
principles, to further the interests OF
his employer? In short, brisk. intel
ligent. all-around man who knows bus
mess from A to u and will never be
caught mapping? II SO, | am the In.
