CRUSOE IN MANHATTAN.

Another reason why an English man is apt to tire of New York with unexpected rapidity is the curious isolation of the city. One feels in New York singularly cut off from the rest of the world and not least from the rest of America. Personal ly l confess l never really regard myself as in the United States until New York is left behind and 1 am free of its atmosphere of concen- s-ateo self sufliciency. A Lon- doner who is used to being at the center of things and watching be- meath his very eyes the convergence of a thousand worldwide interests not only feels in New York that he has been banished to the outer cir conference, but feels also that he has left England without really reaching America.-From the narrative of a revisiting Englishman in Harpers Weekly.

 Relief in Cardui.

THE CAR AND THE HIGHWAY.

"Nothing has given so forceful an impetus to the movement for road building as the automobile" writes Thaddeus s. Dayton in Harper's Weekly. Millions of dollars are be- ing spent upon state roads. ''The time is not far distant when the fed sral government will step in and aid In their construction. There is bill before congress for an ocean-to-ocean highway, which shall have right of way a mile wide. The highway proper is to be 1,430 feet wide. Along this will be roads with a macadam surface, steel tracks for electric cars, steel-plate tracks for fast automobiles, and cement ways for motor cars going less than twen- ty-fve miles an hour. It is planned to have this highway follow the thir- ty-ffth parallel of latitude"

RAvAGEs OF FOREST FIRES
Less Estimated at $15o, o,0oo, 900 In One year Laid to CareIessness
 of Woodsmen.

With al total estimated forest fire loss for the entire country last year ranging from S150, 100000 to $200,- 000,000, and causing the death of several hundred persons, uneasy in- deed must rest the knowledge upon any woodsman, experienced or anna teur, that he caused a fire which may have contributed in this loss of life and property, says Guy Elliott Mitchell in the Review of Reviews. On the other hand, the man who ex- tinguished an incipient fire may take just pride in the act.
 The way to prevent big fires, as Chief Forester Graves says, is to put them out while they are small. If people are careful not to start fires, or if in case fires do start there are enough people available to fight them, they will gain no headway. The forest service in its posted no- tice lays down a few simple rules to keep in mind when in the woods and particularly requests in ease of fire that the forest guards be e~noti- fled. If the fire has not gained too large headway it may be very pos sible to check and extinguish it, al- ways remembering that fire runs rapidly up slope, burns slowly on the crest and travels down hill yet more slowly. Many an incipient fire has been put out by single guard or ranger, or an experienced camper, using his blanket or green branch for beating the fire or throw" ing on loose earth or sand.

REAL GIANT FROM CARDIFF
Former Circus Attraction Has Taken Out Ills Citizenship Pa
 pers.

When the attendants in the natur- alization court in the Fairfield coun- ty court house looked up one after noon and saw bending to come through the doorway the form of a man eight feet one inch tall all off, cial dignity was thrown to the winds.
 M. J. Flanagan, naturalization clerk, at once recognized the visitor as Capt. George Auger, the ex-circus giant, who is now living in retire. ment on farm in Fairfield.
 Captain Auger is a native of Car diff, Wales. He vas once a police man in London, but lNs stature drew so many people about him that he couldn't handle the crowds he him. self attracted, so he went into the circus business. Lately he had been appearing in a vaudeville produce tion of "Jack the Giant Killer" but now he says he is done with the stage.
 He served notice of becoming citizen several years ago, sot his first papers and filed the customary no- tice of 90 days for his final papers. bridgeport Dispatch.

BLACKSTONE AND GOLDSMITH.

In deciding to place a tablet on the house in Lincoln's Inn Fields where Sir William Blackstone lived, the London county council have probably been guided by the fact that the most famous residence of the judge and commentator already carries distinguishing sign. This is in the Temple, but the tablet is to Goldsmith's memory. Here Oli- yer gave dinners to his staider friends and supper parties to young folks of both sexes. It was the sup ger parties which disturbed Black stone, whose chambers were immedi- ately below, and on many an eye- ming his studies on the "Commenta- ries" were broken by tie racket made by his "reveling neighbor."

Amusing Experience of Maiden Lady Who Found She Had Been
 Churchsd in Rome.

A maiden lady, being in Rome, went into one-of the churches, and seeing other ladies attending a serv- ice in one of the chapels went and knelt with them. The service over, a woman came round to make col lection. The lady gave a small coin, but it did not appear to be suffi- cient. The woman made some remark in Italian, at the same time holding up to fingers. Failing to make the lady understand, she fetched priest who could speak English.
 Pardon" he said, "the Signora is perhaps not aware that the fee is two francs"
 "The fee?" she exclaimed.
 "Yes, signora. The signora has been churched and the fee Is twt francs"
 "Churched, my good man," ex, claimed the visitor in horror, "I'm not married W
 The good priest modestly cast down his eyes. "In that case, signo- "a, the fee is three francs"

LIQUID CURES ECZEMA
WHERE SAlVES FAIL

In regard to skin diseases, medical
authorities are now agreed on this:
Don't imprison the disease germs in
your skin by the use of greasy salves.
and thus encourage them to multiply.
A true cure of all eczematous dis
eases can be brought about only by
using the healing agents in the form
of u liquid.
WASH THE GERMS OUT.
A simple wash: A compound OF OIL
OF Wintergreen, Thymol, and other in
gradients as combined In the ID. ID, ID,
Prescription. This penetrates to the
disease germs and destroys them, then
soothes and heals the skin as nothing
else has ever done.
A bottle will start the cure and give
you instant relief.
