GOOD ROADS.

Washington, July 20-In order to il- lustrate the tremendous impetus which has lately been given to the nationwide movement for improved public highways the United States Of flee of Public Roads has just pre- pared a chart which shows that nearly 15,000 miles of transcontinental inter- state and grand trunk-line roads are contemplated in various parts of the country.
 This chart shows to what extent the good roads movement has taken pos session of the country. North, South, West and East, the improved roads, some largely planned, others actually under construction, literally make a network covering the whole country If all the plans contemplated are carried out, 1t will be possible to drive wagons or run automobiles from the Atlantic to the Pacific coast; from Vancouver, B.

The Genevieve Who Took a Boy
tn Raise
To KaiSe

Genevieve was q charming woman.
She was, in fact. a charming widow.
and that Is very important indeed.
James was AZ nice a young man as
ever executed a clean shave with a
safety razor or fretted about the way
his trousers were pressed. Though.
for the matter Of that. James was no
ladies' man either. and not more In
love with himself than a young man
has a right to be.
Genevieve was not only charming;
she was also several years old. Not
an impolite number OF course; but
more Junes had slipped by her than
had cast their roses upon the head Of
James. She had Just about enough
money to take lovely care Of herself;
but she also had to take lovely care
Of her daughter, who fulfilled to the
letter that old. but true saying used
by the wise Latin people about Mater
pulchra. fila pulchrior." which. being
translated. means that mamma used
to be as good looking as daughter is
now.
Daughter was sixteen and in q
boarding school.
James met Genevieve at a dinner,
where she was looking lovely. and
whore he was so happy as to take
her in. She was lovely. Her hair was
very soft and almost a true corn yell
low. and that shade Of hair is the
easiest thing in the world to keep
from turning gray. All wise woman
needs Is per-well, never mind what.
All she needs is to take It In time.
and It will never fade at all.
Genevieve's hair was not at all arti-
hcial; and her eyes were as blue as
could be and had q natural baby-stare
that many younger women would have
given all their beautiful switches to
own. Young Jennie was taller by two
inches and her hair was smooth and
black and shining. But she was at |
&C, col.
James fell head over heels in love |
with Genevieve. He was wonderfully |
good to look at himself. being an |
athlete and carrying himself with q
+ wing and a Swagger to his shoulders
that spoke Of pure, physical arrogance.
Baxter Springs news. [volume] (Baxter Springs, Kan.) 1882-1919, 1911-10-26

His disposition was not arrogant, but
very kind, and so gentle that q lady
might lead him. And she did.
Genevieve looked at James and
thought to herself, "He Is a most In
convenient age-just too young for me
and just too old for Jennie. / suppose
had better not have him about"
But she was not consulte;d because
James came calling the very next az
ternoon in his touring car. And he en-
tered with dinldence in his manner
and worship in his big. black eyes.
Genevieve saw the dlffidence and reso-
lutely declined to see the worship.
James said, do come out for drive
and find out how the spring feels. I
am sure you are pale for the need Of
fresh air." And Genevieve said. II
am always pale. but It Is very kind Of
yon, and l shall be charmed"
So she and James motored all that
afternoon and James had never had
such a good time In all his life. He
had little experience with women, this
nice James.
James came around the next after
noon, and then the next. The third
time Genevieve was not at home. She
was, in fact, holding a serious CONVEX
sation with herself. She was saying
that James was much too young for
her. OF course. anybody knows what
that leads to. She could make him
happier than any mere girl-she knew
men, and an unhappy marriage would
cause her to appreciate q happy mar
rage.
when she doubted about Young
James-as to how this would be after
a while for him-"He wants me-just
me- she whispered to her doubts and
crushed them out Of sight. Though
she knew perfectly well the look that
would come into the faces Of her
fFienen when James was kidnapped.
