A DREAM VISIT TO LOvELAND.

| dreampt | visited Loveland-
where lovers dwell,
Twas beautiful place with ave-
nues bordered with roses,
Grand was the perspective in its
embellishments of bluebells,
While fountains of nectar shower
ed beds of glOries.
Its trysting places, formed of laby-
rinth of jasmine vines,
Were deep in the wood where the
honeysuckle rioted;
The odor of the violet was intoxi-
eating at the shrines.
Where lovers were kissing the
blossoming of Loves knighthood
In the environs of Loveland, hemm-
ed. by hills, lay
A lake of turquoise water reflecting
an opal sky;
A lily cup of boat-Love, like a
swallow at play
Gracefully skinned the waterway
In the boat where you and I.

The Rev. Earl Flynn, a Califor-
MIA minister, in a recent lecture
advised his hearers to eat sauer-
kraut if they would live to be 100
years old. Sauerkraut and spec,
pretzels and limburger and some of
the celebrated Milwaukee brew!
Surely there's some strength to
that kind of diet. The reverend
gentleman likewise said that to be
healthy every minister should sweat
at least twice a week. A good many
ministers, he believes, sweat only
once>sa month, when they tiraw
their salaries. There are a good
many godly men who do not even
get a chance to perspire that often.

Fifty years ago there was some
excuse for bad roads, for our coun-
try was poor and undeveloped. Now
since it is prosperous and there IS
need for them, there Is no ex-
crse for bad roads. A good. road is
always to be desired, and is a
source of comfort and convenience
to evey traveller. Good roads attract
population, as we'll as good schools
and churches. Good roads improve
the value of property, so that i
is said that farm lying five miles
from town connected by bad road
| is of much less value than an Usually
good farm connected by a good road
A larger load can be drawn by one
horse over a good road than by two
over a bad road. ALL this you al
ready know, but it is to remind you
that the question of good roads is a
vital one.

cry on time.
AS common sense arrangement
this would seem to commend itself
not only to the parties Immediately
concerned but to the public. Getting
periodicals to press little earlier in
the month, so that ample time for
their transportation by fast freight
may be allowed, will relieve the rail-
way mail service of congestion that
had come well nigh impairing it's val.
lie seriously, while at the same time
eliminating great and unnecessary
expense.
The railway mail clerks have had
good cause for complaint with regard
to the manner in which periodicals
have been dumped upon them on GER
tain days of the month. Matters had
reached a point where it was next
to impossible to carry on distribution
during ordinary runs. Mail that
should have dropped at certain sta
tions was necessarily carried by these
stations, to be transferred and drop
ped on return trip, or by another
car. Regular mail matter, letters
and newspapers, has been increasing
at tremendous rate, demanding of
itself nearly all the space and energy
at the command of the railway SER
vice; northing short of the doubling
of the time of the clerks has served
on occasion to keep the mails NOV
ing regularly.
Postmaster-General Hitchcock is
entitled to praise for the many econ
omies he has introduced in the pos
tai service, and for this one in par
ticular. It means not only saving
to the government in actual cash, but
it means also the conservation of the
labor and comfort and happiness of
thousands of unknown but faithful
public servants. 49,
