Der 9th.
Forty-seven great organizations are
taking part in the Congress under the
leadership of the American Highway
Association and the American Auto
mobile Association. In his letter to
the Mayor, President Fletcher calls
attention to the fact that practically
every state highway commissioner
will be present and take part in dis
GUESSING the important. problems of
road construction and maintenance,
and that some Of the foremost, men in
public life will devote their attention
to the great question Of Federal Aid
to road Improvement, in an endeavOr
to work out a policy which may be
submitted to the Congress of the
United States with the support of the
organized road movement Of America.
An important move bearing upon
state legislation will De made at the.
session to be held under the auspices
! of the American Bar Association, at
which a joint committee, appointed
at the 1913 Congress, will report
progress in compilation and suggest
ed revision Of state road laws The

information can be obtained through
attendance at lectures with leading
specialists in road and street work,
and the collecting of the many In

Hugh Chambers says that most OF us
in our earlier days had the idea that
success was long way of, thing to be
realized some time before we died, but
that he had changed his mind about this
and thinks that success is a thing to be
attained every day. Success consists in
doing each days work as well as We
know how and letting the future take
care OF itself.

ONLY MADE MATTERS WORSE
Abbas Bey's Brilliant Idea Failed to
Work Out as He Meant
1t Should.

Senator J. T. Robinson said of a
proposed bill in which he disbelieved
"Such a bill would land us from
the frying pan into the fire. Such
a bill, in fact, reminds me of Abbas
Bey.
"Abbas Bey, an oriental potentate,
was giving fete, and before him, on
a Louis Quinze table lay superb
watch, the gift of the German en-
peror.
Suddenly the electric lights
failed. For a minute Abbas Bey and
his guests were in darkness. Then
the lights went up again, and, alas |!
the splendid jeweled watch had dis
appeared.
my good friends said Abbas
Bey, in suave, diplomatic tones, the
lights will now be lowered afresh,
and l will expect that the person
who took my watch-in order to look
at twill put it back on the table
again.
''In profound silence the lights
once more went out. There was
slight sound, as of metal against
wood. Then the lights went up
again, and Abbas Bey discovered that
instead of the watch being returned,
gold cigarette case, the gift of
Queen Victoria, had disappeared"

STORY CREDITED TO MORGAN
Yankee Perslstency Fully illustrated
In Anecdote by Great Fin
ANGLER.

To illustrate Yankee persistency,
J. Pierpont Morgan used to tell the
following story:
ga New England Yankee who was
prisoner on pirate ship" said
Mr.. Morgan, Gin the good old days
when pirates roamed the seas, be-
came, because of his Yankee attri-
butes, Objectionable to his captors.
ut was finally decided to maroon
him on desert island, with but
little food and a coffin, to remind
him of his inevitable fate. The
island was found and the New Eng
lander and coffin were left alone on
the beach while the pirate ship sailed
away.
For several days she sailed and
then became becalmed. For three
days she lay there with not breath
of air. On the evening of the third
day black speck was noticed on the
horizon. 1t steadily grew larger, and
soon was close enough for the man on
the ship to make out what it was."
The man of millions paused for an
instant, and then said, smilingly:
ct was the Yankee in his coffin,
with half of the lid in either hand,
rowing for home"

EASY TO PRESERVE HEALTH
quired by Exercise of Care
and Proper Living.

Perfect health is the best possible
immunity from disease Millions of
germs are breathed in with every
breath we take, but their injurious
effect is nullifed SO long as the
health is good. Many of the germs
SO taken are necessary for health,
others would be disease breeders if
they fell upon the proper soil. The
habit of deep breathing that the
blood may be purified with the oxy-
gen thus obtained, at the same time
keeping the bowels open, with such
articles of diet as contribute to the
manufacture of good red blood, will
go long way toward making a per-
son immune from ordinary diseases.
When an epidemic is around the
persons first affected are those with
debilitated blood; otherwise every
body would go down together. So
little is necessary for the production
of good, healthy blood that there is
little excuse for any person having
anything else, and with such a
healthy condition there is the slight
est probability of acquiring any of
the diseases that are SO frequent in
some communities. The responsible
ity is largely an individual one, and
if everybody exercised an intelligent
supervision of his habits and his sur
roundings there would be practically
no reason for the existence of boards
of health or any other such restric-
tive measures.

WHY MEN OPPOSE SUFFRAGE.

In the Woman's Home Companion
Temple Bailey writes woman suf-
frage story entitled can Army With
Banners" in which one of her char
acters makes the following comment:
81 think that deep down in his
heart man likes to believe that he's
got woman in the nest he has made
for her, safe and warm, and he likes
to keep her there just for himself.
But times change, and perhaps the
world needs women. And if it does,
we men have got to stop being self
ish.'"
