BILE or good roads for those that would
be open to just criticism If found in
the outskirts of a mining camp or
even of am African village.
And the very worst Of our roads,
at least for the automobilist, are those
which once were good, but have been
allowed to go to ruin for lack of timely
repairing We have not yet arrived
at the point of effectively realizing
that a good road needs attention from
the day Of it's completion, and that if
it is to remain good more or less work
must be done on each mile of it every
day thereafter. Our plan is to do
nothing until it becomes practically
impossible, and then to build road
brilliant examples of what results
from following that criminally expen-
sive policy are to be found in par
ticular abundance in the immediate
vicinity of New York city, and not a
few of them are within the metropol-
itan limits
The good roads issue is live one
everywhere, and how profitable and
useful they will prove to be depends
upon their use and care, not upon their
abuse and neglect.

REPoRToRIAL IMAGERY.

1t is being shown that what Presi-
dent Taft cannot do in attracting to
Beverly the attention of the curious,
the live reporter can. THE woman in
white" at Beverly, as presented to
view by the correspondents, has put
the whole country into a state of
impotence to find out who this wo-
man is, why she follows the presi-
dents automobile upon a bicycle, and
what her purpose is. She may be a
woman seeking a reprieve for lover,
she may be a lunatic, or she may be
nervy newspaper woman who fol-
lows close that nothing worth gos-
siping about may escape her. Presi-
dent Taft does not appear to be an
noyed by the way in which she shad-
ows him, and the civil service men
do not regard her as dangerous. 1.-THE
woman in white at Beverly is not she

In conjunction with Malaga grapes
small hedge of La France roses may
be successfully used.
Velvety, carmine-tinted peaches are
another fruit suggested for decorative

These go well with any sort Of

delicate ferns should be allied with
them.

THERE ARE NO PENNIES.

The fact that a penny is a two-cent
piece has often been called to public
notice; and, yet, even the bankers of
the country are sending in orders for
Lincoln pennies instead of Lincoln
cents" The manager of the mint is
not inclined to notice letters which APP
ply for pennies.
1t is common in small stores to hear
calls for penny's worth of this or
that; and it is understood to mean
a cents worth, and the customer ex-
poets no more; but it is not correct
order, and there is no such thing as
making the two words synonymous.
1t is not a very important matter,
anyway, but those ordering will have
to call for Lincoln cents IL they ex-
pect to get them, since the govern
rnent rules that there is no such coin
as a Lincoln penny.

WHAT WE CANNOT FoREsEE.

The incoming of the motor carriage
was heralded as the beginning of the
end of the horse, and now, fifteen
years after, there are rs per cent. more
horses than there were then, and their
average value has increased over 1.S0
per cent. The Breeders Gazette calls
attention to the fact that there were
f5.s93,91s horses in 1895, the average
value being s35 head. In the last
year the reports show 20,640,000 horses
valued at $95 head. Mules have also
doubled in number and in value in
the same period.
This shows that as a forecaster in
this respect man was not keensighted

not there. 1t is more than likely that

THE NEW COMMANDER IN CHIEF

The new commander in chief of the
Grand Army of the Republic, ex-
Governor Van SAINT of Minnesota, is a
live man with both a military and po-
litical record. He was a vigorous ex-
ecutive of Minnesota. and as such
participated in the preliminary cam
paign against the Northern Securities
merger" At one time he was said
to cherish ambitions pointed toward
the White house, but these died young.
He did enough, however, that was pop
ular to hold public attention for a
time, and that of itself is something
of an achievement.
Governor Van SAINT served in the
volunteers in the ranks during the
civil war, and represents the hardy
element that became soldiers the more
fully to live up to their standards Of
citizenship. He is deservediy popular
with the veterans, who like his dem
ooratic spirit and hustling ways He
will not disappoint the organization in
his conduct Of this high Office, for he
is heart and soul in accord with its
purpose and well-being.

be made large enough to make the
Identification Of citizens possible.
There are quite a number of these

to make this book so attractive that
it will be in prompt demand when it
appears in December for delivery.

It is bad thing for an adult to lose
sleep, but it is worse for a child. To
cut short the time the immature brain
needs for rest and repair is to stunt
the growth irreparably. Therefore
says Sir James Crichton Brown, the
English physician, parents should set
their faces firmly against home study
ing. When books are taken home the
studying is, as a rule, done at night
and brain work at night is almost sure
to poison the child's sleep, robbing il
of the repairing power sleep ought tc
have. 1.-THE present increase in nerv-
GUS and mental diseases noted by re-
cent. observers is largely DUE says
Sir James. ito insufficient sleep.
1t would be wiser to let the children
learn less if thereby a better brain
power is assured for the future"
