TURN TO THE RIGHT.

Under the rulings of 1909 revised
road laws governing public roads in
the state of West Virginia, several
important changes have been made
that are not generally known to the
general driving public. In section 10
Of the new laws the law states that a
public road includes all public high
ways opened and in use pursuant to
the laws of the state and is construed
to include all streets, bridges, land
iugs and alleys, not only in the
country districts but in all incorpor-
ated cites, towns, or villages. The
law states very emphatically and
clearly that when driving on pub
lie road two vehicles meet both driv-
ers must always turn to the right in
order to pass each other, and that
one team cannot monopolize the cen
ter of the road, hold up traffic for
argument or force the other person
to drive around him as each must
turn to the right in passing.
As streets, alleys, bridges, etc, in
Incorporated cities and towns are
considered public highways, it is said
that the law means that the right side
of the street must always be used I'M
less the vehicle being driven is to
stop at some place on the left side
and then it must turn and come up
with the traffic, with the front of the
vehicle pointing toward the general
trend Of public highway traffic. This
law, if complied with would prevent
much confusion and arguments that
are daily seen on any of the streets
of the city, but as yet no violators
have been taken before the courts,
although there is fine connected
with the non-observance of this rul-
ing.
The law gives the justice of the
peace the right to rule in such viola
tons of the law, and if found guilty
a fine of So must be assessed on the
parties arrested.

DEATH OF GEO. E. TREADWAY.

After an illness of two weeks with
typhoid fever, George Edward Tread
way succumbed to the disease at the
home of his mother, Mrs. Sarah
Treadway, at COZ George street, at
$3.50 Thursday evening. For some
days the condition of the young man
was very critical and the first of the
week it was thought that he could
not live from one day to the next.
The deceased is survived by his
mother and FIVE brothers, the latter
being William, John, James, Samuel
and Sherman Treadway, all of this
city.

The American masculine claim o.
absorption in his work does not in
the least justify such a condition.
Frenchmen support their wives and
still find time to go shopping with
them too! Englishmen do likewise
and find energy left to place their
sons in school; energy to watch
keenly the love affairs of their
daughters, unbesitatingly bidding
this or that man begoae; moral
courage and physical vitality left
after the days work to be in fact
as well as in fancy "the head of the
house" They have the wisdom to
leave hours for play, for pure boy
lshness of living. And all this may
be observed in the same middle class
that with rs turns the whole issue
over to the wife, expecting of her
all wisdom, though knowing her
Aheltered youth, and all vitality to
run increasingly and unaided the
whole machinery Of the family. No
wonder our women have nerves,
No wonder they are becoming NOR,
and more restless lone of the first
evidences of strain, more and more
disconnected as time passesl Mas
cuhne kindness to our women is
sometimes so tangled up with self
ishness that there need be no sur
prise that there is some confusion
regarding them.
Not that our men want the
money after which they are striv-
ing for themselves, for their pleas
uees. They do not. They are al
most VIGOROUSLY generous. Our
rich men give, give, give, to their
wives, their children, to colleges, TO
hospitals, to churches, until the
whole world is amazed at their gen.
crosby.
The habit and fury of work, un-
reasoning, illogical, quite unrelated
to any need, is a masculine disease
IN this country, and the whole social
system has for years paid the inevi-
table penalty. Here and there a man
tries to stop in time, but finds him
self obsessed by work so that he can
no longer think of anything else.
He is as much slave to it as is anv
opium taker to his drug and drunk
ard to his potion. 1t is grave
danger not only to the individual, /
but to the whole American civiliza-
tion.-Anna A. Rogers in Atlantic.

sHAKEsPEARE's LAW.
Citations to Show Tina. He Was In N.
Fa.hion Of Ris Time.

No ordinary reader of Shake
spea7e's works can fail to be stsuci
by the copious and ever recurring
legal phraseology with which they
are filed. Not only are law terms
frequently employed with an al.
most professional correctness ia
give color and intensity to his sen.
fences, but whole scenes are taken
up with illusions to or discussions
on purely legal matters, as in 'SThe
Merchant of Venice" Henry W
and the grave scene in Hamlet, .
not 'to mention other plays. So
profound indeed is the knowledge
displayed all through that no less
an authority on the subject than
Lord Campbell has told US that ito
Shakespeare's law, lavishly as he
propounds it, there can neither be
demurrer nor bill of exceptions nor
writ Of error" To this marked
feature Of the works more than to
any other one might perhaps with
justice attribute the very origin of
the whole Baconian theory. The
point is naturally of extreme i'm
portance in the eyes of those whose
only knowledge Of the literature of
the period is confined to Shake
speare's writings. But that impor-
lance shrinks rapidly to insignif-
canoe after a course of reading
through the general dramatic liter
allure of the time, in which, as a
matter of fact, legal SMILES and al
lusions are found to occur with
about the same frequency as in
Shakespeare's works. So strong in
deed is the legal coloring of all
stage writing at the time that one is
forced to believe that law talk must
have been more common among lay
men in those days and especially
among laymen of a playgoing dis
position than it has ever been dur
ing any period since. There are in
dications besides that some critics
were getting tired of all this legal
jargon, Decker, for instance, who
writes:
"There is another ordinary at
which your London usurer. YOUR
stale bachelor and your thrifty at
toEney do resort-the price, three
pence; the rooms as full Of com
Pany as jail. If they chance to
discourse it is of nothing but stat
utes, bonds, recognizances, fines. re-
coveries, audits, rents, subsidies,
sureties, Enclosures, iveries, indict-
ments, outlawries, feolfments, judg-
ments, commissions, bankrupts,
and of such horrible
matter. "-Gull's Horn Book, 1909.

MINNOWS FELL FROM CLOUDS.

A report comes from Camp Creek,
in Mercer county, to the effect that
during the hard rainstorm few days
ago good sized minnows fell from the
clouds. The minnows were unlike
the native species, and the belief is
that they had been carried long
distance by currents of air before
they were precipitated.
The phenomenon is accounted for
by the supposition that these small
aqueous animals are caught up in
water spouts and delivered to the up
per currents of the atmosphere, and
finally fall with the rain when they
reach the lower air strata.

Eat What
You want of the food you need
Kodol will digest it.

You need sufficient amount of
good wholesome food and more than
this you need to fully digest it.
Else you can't gain strength, nor
can you strengthen your stomach II
it is weak.
You must eat in order to livean
maintain strength.
You must not diet, because the
body requires that you eat a suflc-
tent amount Of food regularly.
But this food must be digested,
and it must be digested thoroughly.
When the stomach can't do it,
you must take something that will
help the stomach.
The proper way to do is to eat
what you want, and let Kodol d.
gest the food.
Nothing else can do this. When
the stomach is weak it needs help;
you must help 1t by giving it rest,
and Kodol will do that.
