MOTOR CAR AS VACATION.
Ideal Way to Spend Summers Out

1.-The motor car has settled, once and
for all, that old question, How shall
spend my vacation?' for thousands OF
people" says @. w. Bennett. Since the
advent Of the automobile the old jokes
about harassed individuals being buried
under avalanches OF railroad time tables
and literature do not apply. Nearly
every one is Independent Of the railroads
nowadays, and the first breath Of spring
no longer means the beginning OF long
and arduous study OF railroad and
steamship folders. describing. with more
or less accuracy. but much embellish-
ment, the wonders and glories Of various
and sundry summer resorts.

thought Of the prospective vacationist 10.
'How's the car? He sees not visions of
long, hot and dusty rides In stu1fy rail-
road train to reach some overcrowdeo
summertng place. What stretches before
his imagination Is the vista Of cool. shad-
ed country roads. green fields, hills anu
valleys. How much cooler and more
beautiful are these from the seat Of a
touring car than from the coach window.
And how much more restful and pleasing
Ia quiet secluded country place, far
from the beaten paths Of travel. than the
usual summer resort beleagured by tired
and dusty and disgruntled vacationists.
EVERY year thousands more Amefl-
cans are taking their vacations In a
motor car. and enjoying every minute Of
them. They come back from those trips

gloriously healthy from the opsn-a air drfv-
ing. With the introduction of the sue
cessful medium-priced car, hundreds of
people of limited means, who formerly
stayed at home because they could not

extended outing OF the usual kind. are
taking advantage Of the bounty nature
has provided for them In the open.''

Another Gretna Green Gone.
FROM the philadelphia Inquirer.

From the Philadeiphia inquirer
impatient Philadelphia couples anxious
for tying the nuptial kno. are gradually
being hemmed in on all sides by leglsla-
tive enactments. IL used TO be an easy
trip to Camden. but that avenue was
closed by the legislature at Trenton.
Then Delaware was cheap and quick to
reach. but an unroman.ic legislature has
ordered that a license for foreign
ers" is not good until forty-eight hours
after being issued.
There is left in this vicinity only New
York where one does not have to wait
after getting license. but unfortunately
for clippers, getting license in that state
is no easy matter il there are or appear
10 be any impedments. The officials are
strict about matters OF age. etc. and are
not easily fooled Many are refused IL
censes until they fetch proof of being en-
titled to the same, and in case of many
elopements this would prove embarrass-
ing.
Getting married is the most serious un-
dertakng OF life. although the number of
divorces granted indicates that many per
sons look upon II as sort of joke, an ex-
pertinent to be tried and abandoned II

are cases where an elopement seems justi-
fed. but they are few. AS a rule the cere-

Wholly to rid q state of typhoid fever
Is out OF the question. But the Massa-
chusetts state board of health proves
its aggressiveness in leading preven-
tive campaign when 1t rouses the local
boards Of health to check the spread Of
tho disease, and instructs them to put
certain regulations In force.
The signs of recurrence Of typhoid. SO
common In the spring, are distinct enough
TO call for cooperation by all municipal
boards. Massachusetts has already a
good record in reducing the number of
deaths from the disease. having cut them
with almost unvarying regularity from
