ON THE RIGHT LIN ES.
Great Highway to Be Built.
NATIONAL CLUB WILL BEGIN WORK SOON
ON ONE FROM NEW YORK TO
WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON.
"Work will be begun next summer on
highway between New York and
Washington, 144 feet wide, and without
grade crossings, according to H. Douglas
Layman, President of the National
Highways Club of 115 Broadway, who
has been interested in the project for
the last five years. Steps have been
taken for the incorporation in Delaware
of the National Road and Realty Com
pany, which is to build the highway, Mr..
Layman said. He added that the COM
pany's capital would be $25, 900, 900,
and that among its 1000 stockholders
are forty prominent capitalists.
IF further plans made by Mr.. Layman
and his associates are realized the con-
templated highway will be link in a
National highway system of $1,000
miles, extending the length of the
country, with feeders connecting the
trunk road with the capitals of all the
States. The first steps toward building
this system of roads have been taken in
connection with highway from Chicago
to Milwaukee. Bids for the construc-
ton work on the latter have already
been asked, Mr.. Layman said.
1.-THE highway between New York and
Washington is to have six roadways,
two of which, one on each side, will be
public roads. Between these will be
four other sections, two for automobiles
and two for trolleys, each of which will
handle only traffic going in one direction
These four inner sections will be fenced
in toll roads. The other two will be free
to the traffic using them.
The best things known in road con-
structon at the time when work is be-
gun will be used in making the high
way, said Mr.. Layman. The cost
will be between $4,000 and $lOO, 600
per mile. If the entire II, 000-mile road
system is ever built, | think it safe to
say the average cost per mile will be in
the vicinity of $780, 00.
at is planned to have the four inner
sections of the highway bridged over
railroads on its course or else cut under
them, thus doing away with grade
crossings. The two outer sections will
be built on level, crossing railroads at
grade. New York Times.
The above is a suggestion that our
friends, the automobiles. have at last
realized, that the proper thing for them
to do is to build their own roads. In
this all will wish them well, and sim
cerely hope the funds will last until they
have got the 1000 miles built. 1t will
be perhaps the greatest achievement of
this kind ever accomplished on this
sphere. In the full sense this win be
the progressive highway; progressive
into the pocket, as well as into the
country, and we know not, if the poke
is deep enough, which it certainly may
be, why it may not introduce a new era
in the Worlds history of roads.
We will, however, suggest that the
honest horse will be very willing to con-
tinue to travel in the old routes, as he
cares more for safety than the general
principle of style, and besides is welded
to his old-time habits of dirt or gravel
road. This, however, cannot interfere
at all with highways, the most COM
plete possible, for the Trolley car or the
Automobile.

Since the federal pure food law went

gone out of commission, judging from

article very wholesome substitute
can be made by the use of corncobs,
which will impart both flavor and

shelled are the best for the purpose.
They should be put in a kettle and
boiled for about an hour, or until the
coloring matter shows clearly in the
water. They should then be removed,
the water carefully strained to remove
particles of cob and sediment and
enough coffee or light brown sugar
added to give the strip the desired
thickness after few minutes boiling.

the color also will be a close counter

The poinsettia, which is coming to be
a very popular early winter house
plant, has several very interesting
characteristics. One of these is that
1t sheds its green leaves some time
before it does the red bracts encircling

each blossom is equipped with a little
cuplike projection containing about a
drop of clear sirupy liquid, which is
evidently intended as a bait to draw
bees and other insects to aid in a
more complete polarization of the
flower. 1t is well worth securing one
Of the plants, not only because of its

Thomas Midgely, who prides him
self in the title Yankee Halter" last
night publicly burned the stars and
stripes in the streets of the town Of
Woodstock. A few hours before some
one in spirit of mischief had nailed
an American flag above the door of
his shop. When Midgely saw the flag
he called his neighbors around him
and walking to the middle of the
street, lighted fire and burned the
flag. Then he scattered the ashes
about the street. that the horses
might trample them under their feet.
His action was applauded by large
crowd.
American residents will bring the
incident to the attention OF the con.
sular authorities with the object of OBJ
tanning an apology from Midgely.
