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 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-fye miles an hour. It is planned to have this highway follow the thir- ty-Gfth parallel of latitude"

THE STATE FAIR.

VIII Afford an Opportunity to Arkan.
 sas People to Visit Their Great
 Health Resort, World Wonder, at
 Small Cost.
 That the worlds most wonderful health resort is located in Arkansas has made the state famous abroad more than anything else It is one of the most marvellous creations of nature, and is visited by hundreds of thousand from all sections of this country and foreign lands. Yet, con- paratively few people of our own state have ever seen this God-endowed Beth esda, and know but little of it's match less beauty and mysterious boiling waters which impart healing to most ills to which humanity is heir. The State Fair in October will give an opportunity to all citizens of the state to visit this wonderful place at small cost, and at the same time take in the biggest exposition show ever given in the state. All railroads will have a one fare round trip in force extending few days beyond the dates of the fair.

Numerous Thrillers Have Been Pro-
 vided for State Fair Visitors.

Vioeo TOT state F air Vistors.
 Negotiations are under way for a fireworks spectacular show at night during the State Fair surpassing in grandeur and thrilling effect anything ever seen in the state.-- It will repro duce in all its realistic effects the battle of Juarez in Mexico and the fall of that stronghold in the recent Mexican war. A scene of the city, gorgeously painted on canvas more than 200 feet in length, and wonder fully true to the original, will appear before the grandstand, with soldiers, senoritas and Greaser civilians ming ling in festivities just before the bat tie. Then suddenly all becomes ac- tivity, the attack is on and the fire and roar of conflict rages in fury. with the roar of cannon and musket- ry, the charging of troops, the bom- bardment of the Bull Ring, the blow ing up of the magazine and cuminat- ing in the fall of the fortress. More than two hundred people perform in this great show, which requires about one hour for each exhibition. This Is immediately followed by a resplend- ent modern display of fireworks nev. CT eXcelied in magnificence.
 In addition to these, special day programs of public educational and convention character will accupy the morning of each day. The speed de- partment this year promises to far exceed all former occasions, with many of the best horses in harness and in running races in the state and the country at large on the track. In all respects, the State Fair this year will be great event, and worth ten times the expense of attending and seeing. The railroads will give one fare round trip rate. Write the sec retary of the fair for catalog and lit- erature.

VICTOR HUGO'S GOLDEN GIFT
How the Great Writer Rewarded the ChiffonnIer Who Had Found
 hls Lost Spoon.

A Paris chiffonnier makes living of a sort, and he sometimes, in over hauling the dustbins, comes across a find. In this respect Paris contem- porary relates capital story of Vic tor Hugo. A little silver gilt sou venir spoon, which the poet valued very much, disappearei. Through the carelessness of the maid servant 1t had found its way into the ash bucket, and in duo course into the hands of the chifonnier who prac- ticed in the district.
 This worthy succeeded in getting tho poet to awake from his reveries and to descend from tho lofty heights of Olympus, in other words his study, to receive back the lost spoon. Huge was delighted to get back his souvenir. Tho author of 'Hernaai'' was never . prodigal, 50 he rewarded tho chihonnier by presenting him with . copy of his Les Chansons des Rues ct des Sois," saying 'There, my man, you will find in it as much gold as is contained in any jewel case in the world" ."-London Globe.

BREEDS NEW KINDS OF FLIES
suits In Mutations of Form and Color.

Some curious results have been ob- tained by Prof. T. H. Morgan of Co- lumbia university in the production of mutations of form and color by culture and breeding of the fruit fly" Drosophila ampelophila. By subjecting flies, pupae, larvae and eggs to the influence of radium rays, Professor Morgan produced one fly which had ''beaded" wings. By sub se1uent breeding other flies with sim liar wings were produced, and after many generations stock has been developed that frequently gives, in reproduction, e hundred per cent. of beaded wings. Other changes pro duced and handed down from gene ration to generation include the shortening of the normally long wings of these flies until in some cases they have become relatively very short and truncated. From some of the truncated-wing stock flies have been developed which have only tiny scales instead of wings Changes have also been developed in the color and marking of the wings and the color of the eyeA Many may won- der whether 1t would be possible to experiment with the house fly and breed both wings and legs out of ex- istence.-Youth's Companion.

EXTRAORDINARY AND OF HIGH GLASS THIS YEAR-ALl SKIN GAMES AND IMMODEST FIX.
 AMBITIONS BARRED.
MANY GREAT ATTRACTIONS
 ARE NOW BEING ENGAGED
Something Will Be Doing All the Time. Sensational Fire-Works, Spectacular Shows Being Negotat- ed. May Have Daily AeropIane Flights Carrying Passengers.

If the plans now under way by the management are fully completed, the amusement features of the Arkansas State Fair at Hot Springs, October 9-14, will surpass anything ever seen in the state. The management be- lieves in giving the people "a run for their money" and are not cutting ex- pense to do that. The celebrated Wortham & Allen Shows have been engaged to occupy Electric grove. This is an aggregation of sixteen high-class, clean shows, meritorious, sensational and educational in char acter. They also provide three thrill ing free exhibitions. They show this year at Minnesota, South Dakota, Iowa and Illinois State Fairs, which ought to be a testimonial of their high class. The management have also secured as free acts before the grand stand, the famous Marco Twins and Borceni Troupe, two attractions of wide reputation both in America and Europe. They have also secured Ewings' Zouave Boys Band, of 25 pieces. This band has played for many great gatherings, including some of the largest Chautauquas, and have played before crowned heads in Flu rope. In addition to their high-class music, they do fancy uniform drills and wall-scaling acts.

WHAT CYNTHIA GRAY HAS TO SAY
ABOUT THE NEW SPRING HATS

| ers of The Times tell the enhancing
tale Of the new spring hat.
The crown still hugs the head close
ly, and sets down over the ears, as
does the winter hat. Butt Is much
smaller than the modish hat of last
spring and simpler, in that 1t has less
trimming Best of all, 1t is cheaper.
The hat that sold for $40 last year
may be bought for $3.50 this year, and
SO or up the list.
Another feature most important Is
that a happy medium has been struck
between the tailored model and the
dressier one Tailored hats are much
less severe, and dressy hats less
ornate.
Harsh straws seem to be down and
out at last. Soft leghorns, milans,
hemps and other braidS of like ilk are
picture hats.
Women will welcome this decree.
for softness In shape and trimming
prove becoming to faces OF all ages,
while the prim, stiff military effect
becomes only the very young. And
all will agree that the very young
ought NEVER wear anything but the
fiappy garden-hat, Gainsboro styles,
for the round face OF youth seems to
be peculiarly fitted for them. SO, let's
help the milliner Danish the ,prim hat
for all women, young and old.
And. according to present tendencies,
as many feathers as flowers will trim
our Easter bonnets. Most OF the
plumes will droop gracefully from the
back.
And that's the new Easter bonnet!

BY CYNTHIA GREY.

I've had a peek at some new 1911
EASTER hats-the VERY FIRST any
body has seen in all this big world
OF fashion!!,
Isn't that enough to give one a
thrill? All my New Year resolutions

her very face; all my firm resolves
not to CARE what the stylemakers OF
Paris and New York may create have
gone glimmering with this one view.
DO care, and AM excited. just
as we all are when a new ''confec-
ton" is revealed.
How | got by the guards which
jealousy protect the first secret crea-
tions in the inner precincts where
fashions grow; how eyaded the as
sistants and circumvented the models;
how | finally won from Madame" her

You would think they were made OF
spun gold and trimmed with precious
jewels-so closely are they guarded.
It is not fitting that unprivileged NOR
tails should see them till several weeks
have passed.
More thrilling still, I brought away
with me three photographs-though
the HOW of that must also remain a
mystery. These three pictures, which

RAW MATERIAL FOR PARTY.

major premise, which states the gen.
eral rule; a minor premise which elias
SITES the particular thing under con-
sideration land conclusion, drawn
from the premises.
II you can get an opponent In an
argument to admit your premises he
will have to admit your conclusion
That's why you want to be mighty
particular before you admit anything
In an argument.
When you have reached one con
clusion through your syllogism, you
can use that conclusion as one OF the
premises of another syllogism, and SO
on. For instance:
1: All men are mortal.
President Taft Is man.
Therefore, Taft is mortal.
2: Taft has a soul.
Souls are immortal.
Therefore, Taft Is immortal.
8: Therefore, Taft is, therefore, both
mortal and immortal.
To be two opposite things is TO
be a paradox.
Therefore, Taft is a paradox.
While Mr.. Taft Is paradox to a
good many people, It is doubtful IL this
way of proving 1t would pass criticism.
The error was in assuming that Taft
and Taft's soul are one and the same
thing.
Here's another:
A rolling stone gathers no moss.
The senior senator from Missouri,
Is a Stone, but as he Is standpatter,
he doesn't roll.
Therefore, Senator Stone is a moss
back.
Is there an error In that argument?
Sure, you're on!
Next time you give party and
want to start some fun, make up some
of these syllogisms and cut pictures
out of newspapers and magazines to
represent one OF the premises or the
conclusion. Supply one OF the mis-
sing premises, or the conclusion, and
let your guests guess the rest Of the
argument.
Or start one syllogism, and award
prizes to those who can string the
argument out the longest with other
syllogisms-.-Also,- f there are any er-
rors in the argument, award prizes
to those who first find them.
