HER WELL-MERITED REPROOF
Rebuke of Boston Teacher Must AL most Have Broken the Heart of
 Little Sammy Parker.

A well-known educator tells of a school of advanced ideas in Boston, wherein no pupil is ever punished in any way, the Individuality of every child being held too sacred for repres- sion.
 One day, it appears, soon after her entrance into this school, one little girl came home with a face wet with tears and her mouth covered with blood.
 The mother was greatly alarm ed, and, taking the child into her arms, asked her what had happened
 The story of what had happened was sobbed out to the sympathetic mother. One Sammy Parker, it semed, had struck the little girl and knocked out couple of teeth.
 When the unfortunate youngster had been restored to equanimity her ia ther, who had in the meantime put in an appearance, naturally enough want ed to know how the teacher had dealt with Sammy.
 "She didn't do anything
 Well, what did she say?"
 She called Sammy to her desk and said: Samuel, don't you know that was very antisocial?' ''-Harper's Mag azine.

CHIlD'S HEAD
 A MASS OF HUM0R

T think the Cuticura remedies are the best remedies for eczema I have ever heard of. My mother had a child who had rash on its head when 1t was real young. Doctor called 1t baby rash. He gave us medicine, but it did no good. In few days the head was solid mass, running sore. It was awful; the child cried continually. We had to hold him and watch him to keep him from scratching the sore. His suffering was dreadful At last we remembered Cuticura Remedies. We got dollar bottle of Cuticura Re- solvent, box of Cutieura Ointment, and bar of Cuticura Soap. We gave the Resolvent as directed, washed the head with the Cuticura Soap, and ap- piled the Cukcura Ointment. We had not used half before the child's head was clear and free from eczema, and it has never come back again. His head was healthy and he had beau tiful head of hair. I think the Cuti- cura Ointment very good for the hair. It makes the hair grow and prevents falling hair" (Signed) Mrs. Francis Lund, Plain City, Utah, Sept. 19, 1910.
 Although Cuticura Soap and Oint- ment are sold everywhere, sample of each, with 32-page book, will be mailed free on application to "Cuti- cura," Dept. L, Boston.

Masterpiece Gone to Waste.

The very seedy looking young man made his way with difficulty down the corridor on the ninth floor of one oi New York's best hotels, says the Pop. ular Magazine, and knocked loudly al his friends door. Anguish was writ ten on his face and wrinkles onz his clothes. He was a walking sign of what it meant to spend hard night,
 Whats the matter?" called out the sleepy friend.
 Matter? It's a tragedy, a death the end of all things = ruination and grief!"
 Well, what it is?" lazily inquired the drowsy man, without opening the door.
 Whereupon the seedy-lookinS young man, leaning against the door and lift ing his voice to howl, replied:
 T called up my wife on the long-dis- tanee telephone last night and told her why I had not returned. I gave her perfectly good excuse. And now l can't remember what it was!"

Cruelty to Animals,

Brian G. Hughes, whose practical jokes so often delight New York, said at recent dinner at the Plaza: q don't mind practical jokes op human beings, but when it comes to animals l draw the line.
 1.-Two artists were once bragging to each other. I painted up a lump of pig iron to look like cork said the first artist, and, by love, when threw it in the East river it foated.'
 "No," said MT. Hughes, there was no harm in that. But listen to the second artist. He said, with a cruel, unfeeling laugh; I painted a lump of pig iron once to look like a roast of beef, and my dog ate three quarters of it before he discovered his mistake'"

HIGH VALUE OF GOOD ROADS
Big Point In Favor Of Construction IL
Economy Of Time and Force In
Reaching Market.

No one questions the statement
that good roads have a high money
value to the farmers of the nation, and
1t may be said that this alone is suffi-
cient to justify the cost of their con
struction as rapidly as practicable un-
der an efficient, economical and equit.
able system of highway Improvement.
The big point in favor of this expen-
diture is the economy of. time and
force in transportation between farm
ard market, enabling the growers to
.a.,e advantage of fluctuations in buy
ing and selling, as we'll as enhancing
the value Of real estate. 1t is esti-
mated that the average annual loss
from poor roads is 76 cents an acre,
while the estimated average increase
resulting from improving all the pub
lie roads is 50. The losses in five
years would aggregate $2,432 for ev-
cry section of land, or more than
enough to improve two miles of pub
lie highway. The necessity of good
roads is obvious, as it would enhance
the value of each section of land
about $500, or more than double the
estimated cost of two miles of i'm
proved highway. which constitutes the
quota for $40 acres of land.

sED-RIDDEN WOMAN SAVED LIFE

A bed-ridden woman living in Los
Angeles, CAL, few days ago rescued
little child from burning to death.
The little girl had picked up light
ed cigar stump, thrust it into her
pocket and the next instant her dress
was in flames. Across the street,
where the woman lay i'll, she heard
the screams of the child, and, throw
ing a light bathrobe about her,
rushed to the little ones side and
smothered the flames. She then
carried the child into her home and
summoned an ambulance, which took
the little girl to the receiving hos
pital. The rescuer returned to her
bed, apparently suffering little from
her experience.
