+ expenditure for road construction, but

expenditure for road construction, but
this expenditure need not be wasted
nor lost. Every dollar wisely spent in
the building of good roads will yield
big annual profit, and in some cases al
most as much as the total investment.
This profit would be in part through
the enhanced value of land, the les
sened cost of doing business, the bet
terment of farm conditions, the in
crease in the profit Of farming, and at
the same time a reduced cost in the
price of living. But outside of these
purely material things, there would be
the profit of higher civilization, an
advance in living conditions, and in
educational and religious work
throughout the country districts.
Muddy, impossible roads or streets
mean ill-kept houses and badly-culti-
waited farms and untidy people. Well
built streets and roads mean better
homes, better kept and better painted
houses, better cultivated farms and
more thrift and cleanliness every
where.
In view of all these facts, it is espe
cially important that such remarkable
illustrations of what can be done as
that shown by Muskogee county, Geor
gia, should be given the most care
full investigation by students of econ
omic conditions, taxpayers and al
others interested in the building o
good roads without adding heavy bur
dens through unnecessary indebted

struction at Boston is to be expanded
apparently at an early day. The Yer
mont capitol is to undergo changes.
There is discussion at least in others
of these States of new expenditure.
Inland, Iowa has adopted plans which
were inspired by the Allison memorial
commission and there is much salts
faction over the scheme to improve
the settling of the 100000 capitol.
Sacramento has responded to the Of
fer of the state to spend several mil
lions on extension of the state build
ings by bonding itself to the extent
of 100000 to provide the land.
Not less notable is the attention to
municipal government buildings, look
ing to the DEVELOPMENT of high-class
of construction, the latest item in
which direction is the awarding of the
design of the New York court house
to Guy Lowell, an architect of Boston
origin, whose plan contemplates a cir
cular building, in close following of
ancient models. In city construction,
the, model of Springfield, Mass, is be-
ing held up widely with a municipal
group building credited throughout
the country as being the perfect mark
of enterprise and taste.

DENMARK's RURAL SCHOOLS

Bureau, who, accompanied by w. H.

children but to the adults as we'll

A Staple Medicine
For All Families
From Infancy To Old Age a Reliable
Family Laxative is Most Needed
fry This One.

1t is inconceivable in this day of gen
eral intelligence that any family would
be without simple remedy for the
minor ills of life, for often by giving
such a remedy in time serious d.
sease can be frustrated and a life
saved.
For example, if at the first sign of
cold a simple laxative-tonic like DR..
Caldwells Syrup Pepsin were given
the beginning Of serious lung affec-
ton or of a typhoid fever might be
avoided. And also in headaches, ner-
vousness, etc., a small dose Of this
remedy would relieve the congestion
and replace distress with comfort
Mothers give it to tiny infants and lit
tie children, and grown people take it
with equally good effect,
Thousands of good American homes
are never without it, among them the
home of DR.. Geo. T. Hull, Prop. Hull
Drug Co., Prue, Okla. DR.. Hull has
for a number of years recommended
DR.. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin in his
practice and writes that "for stomach
and bowel disorders, worms in chill
dren and a general laxative-tonic il
has no equal" Syrup Pepsin saves
the health of the family, and it saves
doctors bills. 1t is a guaranteed cure
for any form of stomach, liver ant

ton, biliousness, gas on the stomach

ing it to any member of the family,
however young or old, for it contains
nothing injurious to the youngest per-
son.
A bottle can be obtained at any
nearby drug store for fifty cents or
one dollar. The latter size is more
economical and is bought by those
who have already convinced them
selves of its merits. Syrup Pepsin
users learn to discard pills, salts, ca
thartics and purgatives generally as
they are too great shock to any aver
, age system.
If no member of your family has
ever used Syrup Pepsin and you would

THE MAYNARD STATE.
(From New York World.)

(From New York World)
Secretary Bryan's telegram to the
Governor of California carries mis-
statement in it's first sentence. He
says that the President recognizes
the right of the people of California
to legislate according to their judy
ment." Nobody can recognize the
right of the people of any State to
legislate in accordance with their
judgment if that judgment chances
to be in hostility to the Constitution
of the United States.
What the demagogues in California
are threatening to do is to pass a land
law which will exclude and Cypress
the Japanese. If it were aimed at all
foreigners without discrimination, the
State might be within its rights. APP
plying specifically to the Japanese, it
violates the treaty between the United
States and Japan, compact which by
the Constitution itself is made the SUI
] pTeUe law OI the ldllu
This fact is as we'll known in Cali
fornia as it Is in New York, but Cali
fornia has been afflicted since the
American conquest with a political
leadership and a public opinion which
have been peculiarly wayward. The
Governor to whom Secretary Bryan
appeals is an advocate Of the abso-
lutte rights of men and assumes to be
an interpreter of the will of God. OF
course, such a man and his followers
so far as they have the courage oil
the desperation of their convictions
are not to be bound by mere constitu
lions, treaties or political responsible
ties of any kind. To address them II
behalf of national honor and peace il
likely to make matters worse.
There is in California, however,
great population that is patriotic, in
telligent and just Mostly of recen
arrival. its memory and habits do no
go back to the old days when the rul
of life was to appropriate Mexican
lands and when remoteness from civil
ization developed contempt for 8
cial obligations which in older cor
munities are sacredly observed.
S This new California is stronger

re old. 1t needs capital and labor.

CHANGES AT WHITE HOUSE
How the Wilson Family Has Rearrang-
ed the Order of Living.

Washington Cor N. Y. Herald)
Persons familiar with the interior of
the White House during the last ad-
ministration would find themselves in
unfamiliar quarters did they enter the
Presidential home today. In six weeks
of her residence Mrs. Wilson has made
a complete transformation in the ap-
pearance of the lower suite.
Mrs. Taft used the Blue, Red and
Green Rooms as family living rooms.
The President and Mrs. Wilson and
their family have forsaken the lower
floor and betaken themselves to the
apartments above stairs. The Red,
Blue and Green Rooms have been re-
stored to their earlier estate and will
be used only on formal or semi-formal
occasions. The big tiger-skin rug
which in Mrs. Taft's day was a feature
of the furnishing of the Blue Room,
with the baby grand piano which stood
near the south window, has been ship
ped to New York with other of Mr..
Taft's possessions. The innumerable
tea tables which Mrs. Taft had set
about in almost every room have dis
appeared, and so have countless pieces
of bric-a-brac and many pictures.
The furnishings which the President
and Mrs Wilson brought to the White
House have been placed upstairs The

A COUNTY OF GOOD ROADS
WITHOUT INDEBTEDNESS

For more than 80 years Muskogee
county, Georgia, in it's business and
fiscal affairs, has been managed by a
commission of three men annually
named by the grand jury of the county.
This has freed county management
from politics and graft. The result, as !
told in an article in 'The South: The
Nations Greatest Asset" is that Mus
kogee county has, with one unimport-
ant exception, the lowest rate of tax
alton of any county in that State; is
without bonded or floating indebted
ness of any kind except current bills,
for which the cash is in bank; owns
the usual county buildings, and for
10 or 70 years or more has been stead
ilv building and maintaining good
roads. That is a record which should
commend it's plan to the study Of tax
payers of every county in the United
States.
Muskogee county has been especially
active in road work, and is now plan
ming for a still larger good-roads build
ing campaign with a view to covering
the entire county with a network Of
first-class highways. If Muskogee
county can achieve what it has done
through ability and honesty of its bus
mess management, other counties
ought to be able to follow it's example.
It is especially important that this
should be done, because we are enter
ing a period when road construction
will require the expenditure of billions
of dollars We have seen only the be
ginning of the movement for the build
ing of good roads, and the amount Of
money thus far expended is trifflingly
small as compared with what will bt
done
The National Highways Association
has put out an estimate that more thai
S25, 900, 100000 will be expended in thu
next 25 years on the 100000 miles o
highways in the United States. Thi
would be considerably larger amour
than the total investment in the rail
roads of the country. To provide sue
vast sum of money for this wor
would require the highest financia
skill in the management of countie
and States in their bodybuilding operi
tons and the highest technical ski
in engineering and construction. 1t
possible that the estimate of the N
tional Highways Association is tc
large, but the amount is not larg'
than the needs of the country will
for road building within % years.
Ill Road building is one of the create
i propositions before the American pc
l ple--indeed, one Of the greatest mat
