Are you in favor of good
roads? If not you don't belong
to this age of the world and this
town is no place for you.
Tar on EnqIish Roads,

The county surveyors in England
have reported that the tarring of
roads has resulted in a saving of 20
TO % per cent of the cost of the road
maintenance. The average cost of
spraying with tar is $195 per mile
Experienced men say that it pays to
spend this much for tarring the roads
that cost $3.50 to $1,000 per mile a
year for maintenance. Nothing more
satisfactory than tar has been found
Two methods are used in applying it..
If the road is resurfaced the material
is previously saturated with tar. On
roads that are not used too much such
treatment will last five or six years
The other system is to spread hot
tar on the surface, and this has proved
TO be more than a dust protector. II
makes the road waterproof and binds
together the material, making 1t more
resistent to water. wheels and hoofs.

Tho First Universities.

To fix precisely the date of the rise
of the first universities is impossible
for the reason that they We're not
founded. but grew. They were started
by few able men who had something
they wished to teach and youths
wished to learn. Gradually the free,
voluntary center of learning became
the organized affair we know as the
university. Among the earliest OF
these centers Of learning were Saler-
no, Naples and Bologna, Italy being
the first land to experience the literary
revival. We may say that Salerno
university was fairly established by
the year 1000, the University Of Bo-
logna by 1160 and the University Of
\ Naples by the year 1900. The Uni
versity of Paris. which owes its ex-
istence to the genius Of Abelard, was
founded about the same time.-New
York American.

ONE WAY TO BETTER E0AOS.
Automobile Club Gives Free Dra1s to
Farmers.

A plan inaugurated several months
ago by the Manhattan QKan.r Motor
club has been successful in lettering
the condition of the country roads in a
radius of ten miles from Manhattan
at least 80 per cent, and the plan is
so inexpensive that the club is urging
other towns to take it up.
The club gives road drag to ev-
cry farmer who will guarantee to use
it to keep three miles of road in good
condition. The club has given away
more than forty drags and is getting
calls for them at the rate of about
four q week.
The club first made the offer several
months ago. The farmers were slow
in taking advantage of it, but a few
days ago the clubs president, DR.. j.
ID. Colt, advertised the offer in the To-
cal newspapers, and the result has
been that the drags are being taken
by the farmers as fast as the club can
get them made. The club has placed
no limit ON the territory in which the
offer is good. and the drags are in use
in all sections of the county. They
cost the club about SO each.

The SHRINKING HAT.
It's Latest Form Is the Chic crocresed
Motor CAP.

AS result Of the desire for a close
dressing Of the head many Of the new
hats are of such a style that they
might more properly be described as
caps. They are merely soft crowns
with little brim rolling up all around
or perhaps a band Of fur on the edge.
Some dispense with the brim almost
entirely. having nothing more than
bit of satin or other material turned
up on the crown i'm front or at the
side to break the plalnness of the line
surrounding the head.
Almost identical with these fashion
able hats, so far as form Is concerned,
are the crocheted wool caps which are
now so popular for motoring and
will be used for all sorts of outdoor
sports during the wintry weather. Al
though the latter style of headgear Of
fers the enticements of pretty colors
combined with the softness of fine
woods, It could never have taken the
hold upon the fancy of women that 1t
has had not their minds been prepared
for 1t by all the head coverings re-
sembling II in greater or less degree
that have gone before. To fashion such
a cap one has only to follow these
directions:
Make a chain of four stitches and
join to a ring. Now work twelve
groups of puffs in this ring as follows:
Chain one, yarn over hook, draw a
loop up through the ring; there are
three loops on hook, draw through all.
Repeat from around and join. Chain
one, yarn over hook and draw a loop
up where you join, yarn over hook and
draw through all three loops, yarn
over hook. draw loop up in the next
stitch, yarn over hook, draw a loop
up in same place, yarn over hook and
draw through all five loops on hook.

GOOD COLD CREAMS.
Formulas For Making Your Own
Compounds.


To make sure Of getting cold
cream In which there are no animal
oils many women like to compound
their own massage creams.
They often fail to get results from
good recipe by not understanding
the art Of compromising. All cold
creams are made I'm the same way
The fatty substances are put in dou.
bic boiler and melted, stirring con
stantly. When all are melted turn
out in n bowl and stir. scrUping down
from sides.
The chief trouble comes in adding
the extracts and astringents, which
must be added gradually when the
fatty base is partially cold Add first
any perfumed waters, drop by drop
beating constantly with a silver fork
then all tlnctures or extracts last of
all. These go in drop by drop also.
A fat wire egg beaten can be used
successfully when a large amount Of
the mixture is being made up, and one
woman swears by mayonnaise mixer
for compromising her toilet creams.
Here is a recipe that can be used
freely without fear of becoming beard
ed or fuzzy: Eight tablespoonfuls each
of almond oil and rosewater, two Ia
blespoonfuls each of white wax and
spermaceti, teaspoouful of tincture
of benZoin.
Melt the oil, then add the wax and
spermaceti. and when nearly cold from
beating add the rosewater drop by
drop, then the benzoin.
| Discarded cheese jars of porcelain
are nice to pack this cream in 10
stiffen. Keep in cool place. Put in
small Jars, so that in use it does not
get germ filed by constant opening.

GRADES ON HIGHWAYS.
Three or Four Per Cent Slope Advis-
able For Heavy Traffic.

dpib FOF FN0dNy lTaHl~s
A per cent grade on a road means
rise Of one foot for each hundred
feet of distance Travelled up the hill.
A 10 per cent grade means ten feet
rise in each hundred feet so Travelled.
A per cent grade, then, means that
in travelling uphill one mile an ascent
Is made of 52.S feet. while 10 per
cent grade means rise In altitude
of 52S feet in mile. Accurate tests
have shown that horse which can
pull 1000 pounds on a level road can
pull only $40 pounds ON a rise Of one
foot In fifty, and on n rise of one
foot in ten he can pull only $50 pounds.
These facts show that the greatest
load that can be hauled over n road
is the load which can be taken up
the steepest hill on that road or
through the deepest mudhole. 1t Is
therefore advised that all highways
Travelled by heavily loaded vehicles
should be kept within 5 or 4 per
cent grade If practicable. To do this
may require change of location to
get around hills. always keeping In
mind that the lower the grade the
larger the load may be hauled and
the cost of haulaSe kept at the lowest
point.
