PRISONERS ON HIGHWAYS.

There is no question as to the de- sira abiuty and benefit of good roads. It is highly important that the high ways be kept in good condition and this applies to the less important of the country roads as well as the main thorOughfares. The question of fln- anCes is the chief obstacle to better roads but this appears to be meeting an excellent solution, in part at any rate, by the scheme of using the pris- oners in the jails for the accomplish naent of such work. It is not a new plan but one which is being gradually adopted by more states and where put in operation it appears to prove satis- factory both in the results accomplish ed and to the men who are thus en- gagged.
 The plan of putting county jail prisoners at work on the roads has recently been adopted in Maine where it has met expectations and is prov ing entirely satisfactory with the re- suit that much road improvement is now underway which must other wise have been neglected. There the opinion prevails that the idea meets with the approval of the prisoners as well as the county and that if they had the opportunity to return to the daily routine of jail life they would elect to continue the outdoor work which they are now doing on the highways.
 With both the people and the pris- oners satisfied, and results that are wanted being obtained nothing more could be desired. It means better roads and it is unquestionably better for the prisoners, and 1t is to be hoped that the use of institutional help in this state will prove as ben eficial.

THE CAPTURE OF LEMRERo.

According to the German plan at the opening of the war it was the purpose of Germany to rush it's army across Belgium and France and cap ture Paris, and then be in time to turn It's attention to the slow moving Russians. There were some sur prtses. The Belgians gave the allies the chance needed to set up an oppo- sition which checked that rush and the Russians moved with greater speed than they were believed cap able of, but the campaign which has been conducted since May for the recovery of Galicia, resulting in the retaking of Przemysl and now the fall of Lemberg, indicates that Ger many may have seen chance to re- verse it's schedule and still accom- pIish it's task.
 The capture of Lemberg wins back the control of that province It has come after great sacrifices in men and ammunition but in sending back the Russians it removes an Austrian menace which was growing worse every day. It is still uncertain just what effect this will have upon the Russian forces. They haze retired in good order and if reports are true without the sacrifice of any great quantity of munitions of war. Wheth- CT they can overcome their ammuni- tiOn shortage and rally in such man. ner as to keep the larger proportion of the Austro-German force occupied in Galicia rests with the future to disclose. but unless they can a re- lease of many troops can now be ex- pected for use along the other from tiers. The driving back of the Rus sians cannot as yet be looked upon however as crushing of that power ful enemy. Whether it can keep back the Brown Bear is still among the un- Certainties.

 REFORM AT ANNAPOLIS.

From such evidence as has been given regarding the examinations at Annapolis it is quite evident that there are conditions existing there which should not be permitted in any well regulated institution of Iearnine and especially in the school where the training is obtained for officials of the United States navy. When it is de- clared by one witness that entrance to the class room and the professors desk was obtained by climbing through the machine shop and that whatever was considered necessary c an aid was taken and later thrown away. there is disclosed a situation which needs immediate improvement It is no excuse that such acts have been committed before or that they have been followed by many previous classes. The exposure calls for prompt and effective action.
 Whatever idea exists in the minds of the middies that the practice of cribbing and stealing examination pa pers, or among the teaching force if it exists that tips can be sold to the students, it is time that they were made to know different and given to understand that discipline really amounts to something. For that req son 1t may be a good thing that the system of getting around the exami- nations has been uncovered as it has. It indicates to the authorities at An napolis that it is a matter which can not be ignored and gives them the opportunity to insist through greater vigilance that the graduates actually possess the knowledge which it is in- tended that they shall. It cannot be longer looked upon as an institution which takes care of the weak and un- fit and still expect to turn out efH- cient naval officers.

THE CHARM
 | OF MOTHERHOOD
Enhanced By Perfect Physi-
 cal Health.

The experience of Motherhood is try ing one to most women and marks dis tinctly an epoch in their lives. Not one woman in hundred is prepared or un- derstands how to properly care for her self. Of course nearly every woman nowadays has medical treatment at such times, but many approach the experi- enca with an organism unftted for the trial of strength, and when it is over her system has received shock from which it is hard to recover. Following right upon this comes the nervous strain of caring for the child, and 8 distinct change in the mother results.
 There Is nothing more charming than happy and healthy mother of children, and indeed childbirth under the right conditions need be no hazard to health or beauty. The unexplainable thing is that, with all the evidence of shattered nerves and broken health resulting from an unprepared condition, and with am- pie time in which to prepare, women will persist in going blindly to the trial.
 Every woman at this time should rely upon Lydia B. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, a most valuable tonic and invigorator of the female organism.

This is a report of a social study made by Atlanta university under the patronage of the trustees of the John F. Slater fund and includes the pro- ceedings of the 18th annual conference for the study of the negro problems held at the university in May, 1913. The object of the studies is primarily scientific-a careful research for truth, conducted as thoroughly, broadly and honestly as the material resources and mental equipment at command will allow.
 It shows that much progress is be- ing made in the work of educating the negro and gives a collection of opinion on morals and manners among the ne gro Americans from those who ought to know.
 It holds that there are the economic hindrances to sound moral life among the negroes, but the fight is being bravely made. The criminality of ne- groes is not large or dangerous, con- sidering their economic status, but it calls for far different treatment than it is receiving. Meantime homes and home life are improving and there is widespread effort in social reform.
