POINTED PARAGRAPHS.

lFrom the Chicago News.1
When a doctor gets sick he knocks
his own game.
It is easy to- offend people who have
no use for you.
Many people want assistance-and a
few really need it.
There is no peace for the wou1d-be
peace maker who butts in.
The bride-elect doesn't mind being
caught in a linen or china shower.
It's well to appreciate the good things
of life but don't be a good thing.
The woman whose face is her fortune
is sure to go broke sooner or later.
When love grows cold even a seal
skin sacque will not keep it warm.
Easy money may land a man on
Easy street, but he seldom remains
there long.
It isn't difficult for the average man
to stay married after he once gets used
to it.
And the more a woman knows about
men the less she has to say on the sub
ject.
It's easier for men to get on flnan-
cially than it is for women to get off
car facing forward.
A girl is never satisfied until she has
hypnotfzed some young man into tell
ing her how handsome she Is.

QUAKER NIED1TATToNs.

[From the Philadelphia Record.1
Don't let your good resolutions slip
for lack of sand.
Many man has wasted his past in
dreaming of the future.
When an Englishman is knighted he
is also apt to be dazed.
We are all apt to forgive our enc,
mics when they are bigger than we
are.
Any man can tell a lie, but it takes
q successful liar to prove the truth of
it.
The man who paints the town can't
very well object if his wife merely
paints her face.
We always have a profound admir-
alton for the judgment of the man who
agrees with US.
You can hide your light under
bushel, but you have to pay the gas
bill Just the same.
It's all right to say just what you
think, but there are times when it is
prudent to say it to yourself
Blobbs-"Dld you ever see such a red
nose as Guzzler's?" Slobbs-"Yes. it's
the pink of imperfection. isn't it?''
Some men have such receptive minds
that thew can't even slip on a banana
skin without learning something.

Motor Cars and Roads.

1.-THE vehicles should be made to fit
the roads, not the roads to fit the We
hicles,'' is the essential principle of
the recommendation to the legislature,
published this morning, on which the
state highway commission would spe-
cially tax automobiles for the repair
of the highways. 1t is true. as the
commission states, that the motor cars
rapidly wear out the macadam roads,
and that they are run by owners
many Of Whom-not ali, by any means
are wealthy But can such a tax
be justly laid until, at least, the meth
DDS of constructing roadbeds are rad
ically altered?
Time and again it has been pointed
out that the old macadam pavement
is the worst possible form of construc-
ton to meet the modern demands of
adapted to new conditions of use, yet
lidified under the impact of horse
have no downward impact, but a back
ward thrust that must, of necessity,
disintegrate and scatter their mater
ia1 in dust clouds over adjacent fields.
OF course, that is all wrong, and it Is
a nuisance. The state persists in
building roads without bituminous or
asphaltic dressing that offer the max
imum of resistance to such wear, and
it proposes to penalize by a discrim-
inatory tax the vehicles that produce
it,. The tax, which is to be collected
in registration fees, will be a popular
one, but it distinctly tends to retard
reform in highway construction.-New
York Times.
