Under this plan Of building model roads to serve

Of road that Is ideal for that particular district
How beneficial these object lessons are is proven
by the fact that thousands Of miles OF good roads
have been built in various parts Of the country this
past few years with these governmental sample
roads patterns. The showing made by rural
roads before and after" treatment by the govern

Avoid Disputatlon.

The disputatious person never makes
a good friend. In friendship. men
look for peace and concord and some
measure Of content. There are
enough battles to fight outside. enough
jarring and jostling in the street.
enough disputing In the market place.
enough discord in the workaday
world. without having to look for con-
tention In the realm OF the inner life
also. There. II anywhere. we ask for
an end of strife. Friendship is the
sanctuary Of the heart. and the peace
Of the sanctuary should brood over Il.
Its chief glory Is that the dust and
noise Of contest are excluded.-Hugh

The average old-time farmer was prone to look
upon bad roads as necessary evil. He realized
in sense what detriment they were to his in.
terests but he put up with the situation because
he did not see any way out of the dilemma-at
least not without more work than he could afford
to give. Then along came the United States gov.
ernment, when rural free delivery comm enced to
be introduced, and declared that these rural mail
carriers could not be placed in districts where
the roads were not in fair condition. This did
much to awaken the farmers to the situation, for
every rural home prizes the boon Of daily mail
delivery And, at about the same time the farm
ers. who thus had their serious attention focused
upon the good roads question: found as they
looked closer. that bad roads meant hole in the
pocketbook OF every tiller Of the SOIL II began
to be realized that II farmer required the serv.
ices OF four horses and an entire days time to
get load OF produce to market via bad roads the
loss to him was just as serious as though he had
to accept very low price for the yield OF his
acres. Herein Is found the supreme incentive
among many that has enlisted the progressive
farmer in behalf OF better roads.
One OF the best things accomplished for the
farmer by good roads Is that 1t has broadened
his markets. With rocky or muddy highways en-.
forcing slow progress the average farmer was in
the old days restricted to one market town-the
one nearest his farm. Now with good roads he
can In a shorter interval than was formerly re-
quired reach any one OF several communities TO-
Gated in different directions This enables him
to attain the market where he can get the best
prices. Similarly with good roads the farmer 10
not likely to be so restricted to railroad for
shipping facilities. II the road nearest his farm
will not give him the cars he needs or otherwise
play fair he most likely has some redress by
driving across the countryside to a rival line
And the very fact that the introduction Of good
roads is destroying such monopolies has served
to render the railroads more obging to their
farmer clients.
The new countrywide Highway Improvement
association which is to hold its hrst annual con.
gress In the near future will not seek 10 drive out

An Uncsnny Salute

Que OF the most marvellous workmen in
the world Is Hananuna RAsakichl of
Toxic, Japan, who has carved a figure in
wood so like himself that when the two
are placed side by side It is said to be
almost impossible TO tell which lives and
breathes and which does not
By several connoiseurs In art this wooden
figure has been pronounced the most per
feot and human image OF man ever made.
MasAkichi has faithfully reproduced every
scar, vein and wrinkle to be seen on his
own body. The figure Is composed OF 1900
pieces OF wood. dove-tailed and jointed with
such wonderful skill that no seams can be
detected.
Tiny holes were drilled for the recep-
ton OF hairs, and the wooden figure has
glass eyes and eyelashes IN which no dis
similarity TO Masakichi's own can be de-
tected
The japanese artist posed between two
mirrors while modelling this. figure. and for
some time after its completion he posed
frequently beside 1T, to the. confusion Of
spectators, who were often entirely at
loss as to which was the artist The figure
stands with little mask in one hand ana
an instrument for carving In the other;
the htelike eyes are apparently casing at
the mask, and the face wears a look Of
intense absorption.
