was the opinion of all that Represent
alive Gray will have to exercise ire
mendous tact TO keep from creating
sore spots.
An outward feeling OF harmony was
present. After Gray. in long speech
had outlined the reasons for the
course he had adopted. the applicants
said they were satisfied with the ar
rangement.
Congressman Gray said there was
only one manly course for him to pur-
sue and that was TO assume the re-
sponsibi!ity of the appointments him

vice Of trusted friends and make the

He said that he refused 10 make the
appointments before the election and
announce them if the election went
Democratic. Il am opposed to a spec
ial election for the purpose OF naming
postmasters because the law provides
no safeguards. although I shall vote
for law by which the people may
eject their postmasters.
Il am opposed TO letting the county
organization appoint the postmasters
for that would put its members under
the suspicion of playing in favor OF
certain men. Hence | have resorted

plicants that he had made no promis-
es and that he would not put himself

THE ART OF FELTlNG.
It Was Developed Long Before the
Weaver Was First Known.

Il Was Developed Long Before the
Weaver Was First Known.
Felt is a fabric formed without
weaving by taking advantage of the
tendency Of hair and wool to interlace
and cling to each other. Antiquarians
state that the art Of felting was devel-
oped long before the weaver was first
known Felting antedates the Chris.
tian era by many centuries.
Authorities state that the felting
quality Of hair or wool results from
the natural structure Of the material
The hair Of most animals is noticed
to be more or less notched or jagged
on it's surface. This Is the more ap-
parent when an examination OF the
material is made by the aid of a
microscope. In some animals there
appears to, be a set of barbs on the
hair. and these barbs are SO placed that
the tip Of each points to the end Of the
hair.
1t follows that when a number Of
hairs are pressed together those which
lie in the opposite direction to each
other will interlock with the barbs of
the hair surface and resist an effort to
tear them asunder. When the hair has
a natural tendency to curl the interlac-
ing process which is called felting is
more easily accomplished
Although the telling property is pos
sessed by wool in Il special degree,
other animals have it in their covering

bit and beayer.-New York Sun.

Early Manuscripts.

The type of letters in early manuscript
was the same as that OF those used on
the earlier metal plates and wax tab
lets. All letters were capitals. Minus,
Guile. or small lettering, as opposed TO
the majuscule. was invented in the
seventh century. Before its invention
there was no spacing between the
words. There was no punctuation un-
less possibly some mark between sen
fences. When cursive writing came
into general use. about the beginning
of the tenth century. the art was prac-
ticed by only a few highly trained
scribes. This continued all through
the middle ages. The scribes were art
lists. and they carried their art to a
high degree of perfection, Many of
the manuscripts Of that period are very
beautiful specimens of handiwork and
- perfect as print.

does not bring Mr.. Beck bad luck"
Everybody smiled and Mr. Beck re-
marked that if any one could tell any
stories" about him he hoped they
would do so, and the newspaper man
took his departure, believing more
firmly than ever that Mr. Beck is to
pull down the prize plum that grows
on Mr.. Gray's political tree. There
seems to be no genuine opposition to
the appointment of Mr.. Beck, who has
worked hard for his party and has
more or less successfully kept out of
the factional feuds in this county.
Applicants Present.
Applicants for three postma sterships
in Wayne county that become vacant
in 1914, and an applicant for the Cen
terville postoffice, concerning whose
class Representative Gray was doubt
full, assembled in the Jefferson club
rooms this afternoon and made formal
application for the positions by sign

the small offices.
The number of applicants for the
Richmond Office came as a distinct
surprise to many. 1t was believed that
Charles Beck and Webster Parry were
the only aspirants.
Laurence Handley, connected with
the local Office, had applied, but when

clerk, was an aspirant, he withdrew

What Good Roads Mean TO Farm Profits

from the market, and who had good
to town.
On the basis of hauling eighty BUSH
els to the load and three loads per
day, and figuring the cost of hauling at
four dollars per team per day, the cost
of hauling over the good roads was a
little over cent and a half per bushel.
Placing the cost of hauling as high
as two cents a bushel over the good
roads, there was a saving of three
cents a bushel, or that much profit
if you prefer it in that sense which is
the correct way to look at it.
The three cents a bushel on three
thousand bushels would have been $50
Think of it!
Ninety dollars on one small job of
hauling. That is only one instance;
and if We would add to that the
ed in one locality, we would have
enough money to build goodly
stretch of the best kind of a road
Just before l began writing this |
saw a handcar with several section
hands going down the railroad track
near my home, and the thought came
to me of the difference in the way the
railroad companies look after their
road beds and the way in which the
farming public look after their road
beds.
The railroad companies, the greater
portion of them, at least, do not stop
when they have constructed their right
of way, but they have men at work
continuously replacing defective rails
and ties and doing other work that
keeps their tracks in good repair.
Time is a very important factor to
| the railroad companies, and it is also
very important factor in every line
of business. BY keeping their tracks
in good condition it means that the
railroad companies can make better
time in transporting both freight and
passengers, and it also means the
lessening of accidents.
l believe that it is just as important
to keep a band of men at work con
tinuously on our roads as it is for the
! railroad companies to keep men con-
tinuously at work on their road beds.
| At first glance, this idea may seem
unreasonable, yet when the subject is
looked at from the proper standpoint
and when we consider what we now
lose because of poor roads, l cannot
see that there is any room for argu.
ment against this plan.
When roads are neglected after they
have once been put in good shape, it
shows that there is a lack of good
business judgment somewhere.
