A o for the good roads amendment
is a vote TO take the load off your own
shoulders and place it upon the broad
shoulders of the state. The proposition
is perfectly plain. If you would rather
continue to carry the load, then vote
against the bond issue. II you would
rather the state should henceforth and for
all time carry that load without a penny's
cost to you, hen vote and work Tor the
passage of the amendment. 1t is up to

You have perhaps heard opponents oil
the good road proposition give as reason
for their opposition that they don't like
the idea OF the present administration
handling the fund. In view of the fact
that before a single dollar of the bond
issue is spent there will be an entirely
different administration at the head Of the
state government, and before the fund is
finally spent in the construction of good
roads, there will be several changes Of ad-
ministration, the argument falls fiat.

Greatest Ocean Disaster Since Titanic.

The greatest ocean disaster since the
Titanic horror, occurred last Friday
morning in mid-Atlantic when the big
steamship Volturno took fire and was
burned up. The ship carried 654 passen-
gers and crew. OF this nun Der $40 were
rescued, -4S5 passengers and rs crew.
The missing are rs passengers and 6S
crew, a total of IA. In this great disas-
ter the wireless telegraph has again dem
onstrated its usefulness as a life.saver.
Not a living soul would have escaped had
not the messages of distress been caught
up by other vessels which went to the
rescue.

Teachers Memories.

Fridays Seneca Kicker contains an in
teresting article written by f. Il. Allison
Of Nebraska entitled "Recollection OF a
School Teacher covering a period of 20
years, when the place OF learning was a
house built Of logs by men OF the country
side who volunteeied their services. Part
of the article follows;
1.-THE furniture consisted Of seven slabs
with a two.inch auger hole bored in tscr
end, VI benches about eight feet long
with legs Is inches in length; two benches
l6 feet long and legs Is inch, in length;
two benches Is feet long with legs 20 m
ches in length. These latter were used
for the writing desks, which consisted Of
a two-inch plank Is inches wide and IS
feet long. There was no provision made
for "the master" neither scat. bench or
desk; he took his seat wherever he could
find a vacant place large enough to sit
down upon.
"a stove about three and a half feet in
length and three feet high was placed
about the center of the room. The stove
was lettered 'Crary and McCray, Oil
Creek Furnace, A. d. 1885, This stove
was cast within 30 feet of the present site
Of the Union station at Oil City and cost

ruler from Ohio, New York or eastern
Pennsylvania. (Among these we do not
include Brother Bowen, of the Oil City
Blizzard, who welded the rod and ruler
at a later date.)
"Among the sn%tecedent female teachers
of 'ye olden times were Miss Mary ], Me-

One reason why the roads of Mass
achusetts have become so justly cele-
brated is that in that state the trunk
line and state road ideas prevailed
almost from the beginning. Had
Pennsylvania been similarly fortu-
nate in its early highway legislation
this state would already have a sys-
TEN of highways unexcelled by any
in the United States, and the money
spent in the small towns of New Eng
land and the prosperity of Massa-

VIA DE- NEALLLD
A strike of 10000 union te1e-
graph operators employed by
the Western Union is threatened
unless. the company reinstates
six union operators discharged at
Sioux City, Ia.
According to S. J. Konnen-
camp, president of the telegra-
pliers union, the men were dis
charged because they belonged to
the union. Circulars were sent
out today to operators employed
by the Western Union setting
forth the grievances of the men
and calling upon them to leave
their keys if ordered.
Two weeks will be allowed the
company to reinstate the dis
charged men at Sioux City.
"The members of our union
are continually bounded by the
Western Union" said Konnen-
kamp. "The company has repeat
edly discharged men for no other
reason than that they were union
men, and in the last year has ex-
pended $4,000 to detectives to
spy on our members.

when my parents were travelling in

after town. Finally we came to lit
tie village in Illinois and prepared to
give the play. However, the people Of
this town had recently turned against
the theater. and the license was far
beyond what we could pay. We were
almost in despair. for our situation
was desperate, not enough money to
give our play in the town where we
were and not enough to get to the next
town.
Finally my father found a young
lawyer who listened to his story with
sympathy and promised to help us.
He succeeded in getting us permit to
play free of cost. We made good
money that night. which carried us on

STORY OF A FRONT TOOTH.
A Small Fortune That Was Restored to
Its Rightful Owners.


One winter morning a little boy Of
eight or ten years ran into the Office Of
the United Charities in New York city
crying bitterly. Between his sobs he
gasped out. ''Uncle has stolen mothers
front TOOTH please get it back for u.s."
His mother. then lying dead at home,
was an actress. In her youth she had
had large diamond inserted in her
front tooth. and the advertisement had
proved profitable.
AS the years passed misfortune over
took her: she was deserted by her hus-
band: the family larder was often
empty and the children hungry. Reso-
lutely she refused to part with the dia-
mond, always telling the children that
after her death the money it brought
would support them for some time.
When the little mother became i'll
with tuberculosis the children hushed
her fears about their future with reas-
surances of the value Of the jewel. But
before the funeral wicked uncle came
in the night and pulled out the tooth.
An officer was sent at once to the
uncle with threats of arrest If restitu-
ton was not made at once. The mis-
sion was successful, the tooth restored,
the diamond taken out, sold and the
proceeds used for the children.-Con-
densed From Survey.

erected to break off the cold north
winds. Without such a windbreak it
will be almost impossible to raise early
plants successfully in the hotbed. The
windbreak should be about five feet
away from the north side of the frame.
The heating material for the hotbed
should be horse manure fresh from the
stable, to which should be added, when
accessible, one-half its bulk of forest
leaves. If these are not available straw
or hay may be used. The manure and
added material is to be thoroughly
mixed and formed into a conical heap
to undergo fermentation. In the for
nation of this heap it should be trod-
den down in successive layers of a
foot in depth until the heap is four
feet or more in height. The base of
the heap should be of sufficient diane
ter to insure good fermentation in the
severest winter weather. All the ma
terial used for heating should be we'll
dampened before putting it in the pile
or the fermentation will not be evenly
distributed. Care must be taken that
no frozen material is put in the heap
or fermentation will be slow and may
greatly interfere with the operators
plans of an early sowing of seed.-Ru-

Celery STORAGE.

Hotbeds and cold frames are quite
satisfactory for storing celery. They
may either be dug out deeper or have
another set Of boards on top to give
the required height. The plants are
set in the frame close together and
then covered with boards Tapped to
shed rain. In very cold localities such
frames are covered with sash. over
which are mats covered with boards.
Ventilation must be given on warm
days by blocking up the sash. Celery
is also stored satisfactorily in trenches,
with the boards used in banching nail
ed in V shape and placed over the top.
If warm weather follows the troughs
are blocked up to admit air When
frost comes light furrow is thrown
up along the boards and later manure
is thrown over them. but this trench
plan is usually adopted when the crop
is to be sold early in the winter. Tops
of celery should always be dry when
it is stored. and some soil is lifted with
the plants. 1t must be stored before
hard freezing.
