GOOD ROADS
EXPENSE OF TRAVELLING ROAD
Problem of GraveIlns Highways at Moderate Cost Solved by commis-
 sioner Rheinhardt of Idaho.

Evidently Otto Rheinhardt, commis- sioner of the Nampa highway district, Canyon county, Idaho, has solved the problem of graveling the highways at moderate cost, writes B. F. Stephens in Denver Field and Farm. Three years ago he decided to gravel the dis trict's share of the boulevard between Nampa and Caldwell A half mile away, Indian creek runs parallel with this boulevard and there an abundant supply of gravel was procured Fortu- nately the very heavy traffic incident to hauling rails and ties for the In- terurban electric line track cut through the gravel, mixing the underlying soil with the superimposed gravel in suit able proportions for cementing a firm, smooth roadbed. A percentage of clay smooth or volcanic ash soil mixed with gravel makes hard, smooth roadbed not likely to absorb the rainfall. The result on the boulevard has been to secure a very serviceable roadbed highly commended by local and United States engineers.
 Under the inspiration of this sue cessful roadbed neighborhood lying

three or four or even more, Judge Os- trander. Do you want one of them to stay inside? That might do the business better than a dozen out"
 No. While Bella lies above ground, we want no third here. When he is buried I may call upon you for a special to watch my room door. But it's of outside protection we're talk ing now. Only, who is to protect me against your men?"
 What do you mean by that, your honor?"
 They are human, are they not? They have instincts of curiosity like the rest of us. How can I be made sure that they won't yield to the temp tation of their position and climb the fences they are detailed to guard?"
 And would this be so fatal to your peace, judge?" A smile tempered the suggestion.
 'It would be breach of trust which would greatly disturb me. I want no- body on my grounds, nobody at all. Has not my long life of solitude within these walls sufficiently proved this? want to feel that these men of yours would no more climb my fence than they would burst into my house with out a warrant"
 Judge, I will be one of the men. You can trust me-"
 Thank you, sergeant; I appreciate the favor. I shall rest now as quietly as any man can who has met with a great loss. I shall always suffer from regret that I was not in a condition

 "He was very powerfully built man. It took a sixty-horsepower rae ing machine, going at high rate of speed, to kill him.
 spasm of grief or unavailing re- gret crossed the judge'B face as his head sank back again against the high back of his chair.
 q should like to ask a question:" he finally observed. You were not at the inquiry this afternoon, and may not know that just as Bella and the crowd about him turned this corner they ran into a woman leading small child, who stopped the whole throng in order to address him. I saw that woman myself, earlier. She was in this house. She was in this room. If you will consent to look for her, and if she is found and no stir made, I will pay all that you think it right to demand" frro pE CONTTNT1ED,

suspended animation which confronted them from the judges chair, shrank unanimously back as little Miss Weeks advanced upon them, holding out her meager arms in late defense of the secret to save which she had just seen man die.
 Let us do as he wished" she prayed. 'I feel myself much to blame. What right had we to come in here?"
 No one in authority was present; no one representing the law, not even a doctor; only haphazard persons from the street and a few neighbors who had not been on social terms with the judge for years and never expected to be so again. His secret!-always source of wonder to every inhabitant of Shelby, but lifted now into matter of vital importance by the events of the day and the tragic death of the negro! Were they to miss its solution, when only door lay between it and them-a door which they might not even have to unlock? Miss Weeks was about to utter an impassioned ap- peal to their honor, when the current of her and their thoughts was changed by sudden sense of some strange new influence at work in the room, and turning, they beheld the judge upon his feet, his mind awakened, but his eyes still fiXed-an awesome figure; some thought more awesome than be- fore
 Death was present with them-he saw it not. Strangers were making havoc with his solitude-he was as oblivious of their presence as he had been unconscious of it before. His faculties and all his attention were absorbed by the thought which had filled his brain when the cogs of that subtle mechanism had slipped and his faculties paused inert.
 Where is the woman?" he cried.
 It was cry of fear; not of mastery.

sinking on his breast; already his glaz- ing eye was losing it's power of con- centration, when with a final rally of his decaying strength he started erect again and cried out in terrible appeal:
 'I have disobeyed the judge, and, as you see, it has killed him. Do not make me guilty of giving away his se- cret. Swear that you will leave this door unpassed; swear that no one but his son shall ever turn this lock; or will haunt you, I, Bella, man by man, till you sink in terror to your graves. Swear sw-"
 His head fell forward again and in that intense moment of complete si. fence they could hear the splash of his lifeblood as it dropped from his forehead on to the polished boards beneath: then he threw up his arms and fell in heap to the floor.
 "Dead!" broke from little Miss Weeks as she flung herself down in reckless abandonment at his side. She had never known an agitation beyond some f1uttering woman's hope she had stif1ed as soon as born, and now she knelt in blood

to the west, called Orchard avenue, de- cided to gravel on the following plan: The farmers to donate the use of teams and wagons with dump boards. The Nampa highway district to provide gravel, usually donated by those who have it, pay the shovelers and man to help dump the loads and also spread and smooth the gravel on the road bed, using for this purpose a King drag. The freshly graveled roadbed should be smoothed with King drag or other implement weekly for two months or until settled and cemented with the underlying soil. Four inches of gravel in the middle of the roadbed with two inches on the sides most readily mixes with the underlying soil in such proportions as to shed rain and form a smooth, solid bed. Heavy traffic cuts through the gravel in wet weather until enough underlying soil has been mixed and cemented with the gravel to shed rain and create solid roadbed.
 A moderate percentage of clay soil mixed with the gravel as applied will pack and cement from the beginning. The clay gravel banks along the re- clamation ditches piled by the dredges supply ideal material for graveling our roads. This mixture of clay, sand and gravel packs from the very first and does not need underlying soil cut in by heavy traffic. Coarse gravel, free from clay or soil, will need an ad- mixture of soil from below to secure hard, smooth roadbed. Orchard ave nue has now been graveled two years. It's success from the start has been such as to attract the attention of oth- CT neighborhoods.

CHAPTER I-Continued.

It was an awful and a terrifying sight to little Miss Weeks and, scream ing loudly, she left her window and ran into Judge Ostrander's presence, and, gazing wildly about, wormed her way toward heavily carved screen guarding a distant corner and covered down behind it.
 The gasping, struggling men, the frantic negro, were in the next room now-she could catch the sound of the latter's panting breath rising above the clamor of strange entreaties and excited cries with which the air was full; then quick, hoarse shout of Judge! Judge!" rose in the doorway, and she became conscious of the pres ence of a headlong, rushing force struck midway into silence as the fro zen figure of his master flashed upon the negro's eyes-then-a growl of concentrated emotion, uttered almost in her ear, and the screen which had been her refuge was violently thrust away from before her and in it's place she beheld terrible being standing over her, in whose eyes, dilating under this fresh surprise, she beheld her doom. even while recognizing that if she must suffer it would be simply as an obstacle to some goal at her back which he must reach-now-be- fore he fell in his blood and died.
 What was this goal? As she felt herself lifted, nay, almost hurled aside, she turned to see and found it to be door before which the devoted Bella had now thrown himself, guarding it with every inch of his powerful but rapidly sinking body, and chattering defiance with his bloodless, quivering Hps-a figure terrible in anger, sub- lime in purpose, and piteous in it's failing energies.
 Back! all of you!" he cried, and stopped, clutching at the door casing on either side to hold himself erect. You cannot come in here. This is the judges"
 Not even his iron resolve or once unequaled physique could stand the sapping of the terrible gash which dis figured his forehead. He had been run over by an automobile in a moment of blind abstraction, and his hurt was mortal. Already his head, held erect by the passion of his purpose, was

Curing Cholera by New Method,

Doctor Renault, director of the sanitary service of French India, re- ports to the Indian Medical Gazette that he has had remarkable success in curing Asiatic cholera by hypoder- mic injections of carbohydrate of eme- tine, in doses ranging from one centi- gram for babies to four centigrams for persons above the age of twenty-five. In a severe epidemic of cholera he cured 73 per cent of his cases, and says this would have been greater but for the excessive zeal of his assail- ants, who administered it to patients in the last stage of the dtssase. when it is absolutely useless

STATE AID FOR GOOD ROADS
One Reason Why Food Prices Arc High Is Because of Cost of Haul
 ing Over Bad Highways.

Nearly every one of the state legis- latures is considering demands for more help for road building, says St. Joseph News-Press. Ten years ago all the states together put up but $2, ,000, ,000 for road building, exclusive of local funds. In 1914 they spent $43, 100000. But as four-ffths of this was done by six eastern states and two Pacific coast states, the problem is far from solved nationally. Many of our big problems always come back to the cost-of-living question.

Some nut or fruit-bearing trees set out on country roads 50 feet apart, would add much of beauty and com fort to the highway.

The injurious action of coffee on the hearts of many persons is we'll known by physicians to be caused by caffeine. coffee and tea.
 A woman suffered long time with severe heart trouble and finally her doctor told her she must give up cof- fee, as that was the principal cause of the trouble. She writes:
 My heart was so weak 1t could not do it's work properly. My husband would sometimes have to carry me from the table, and it would seem that I would never breathe again.

CHAPTER II.
The Yelled Woman.

The intensity of the question, the compelling, self-forgetful passion of the man, had startling effect upon the crowd of people huddledi before him. With one accord, and without stopping to pick their way, they made for the open doorway, knocking the smaller pieces of furniture about and creating havoc generally. Some fled the house; others stopped to peer in again from behind the folds of the curtain which had been only partially torn from its fastenings. Miss Weeks was the only one to stand her ground
 When the room was quite cleared and the noise abated Git was a fright full experience to see how little the judge had been affected by all this hubbub of combined movement and sound) she stepped within the line of his vision and lifted her feeble and intellectual hand in an effort to attract his attention to herself.
 But he did not notice her, any more than he had noticed the others. Still looking in the one direction, he cried aloud in troubled tones:
 ''She stood there! the woman stood there and I saw her! Where is she now?"
 She is no longer in the house." came in gentle reply from the only one in or out of the room courageous enough to speak. "She went out when she saw us coming. We knew that she had no right to be here. That is why we intruded ourselves, sir. We did not like the looks of her, and SO fol- lowed her in to prevent mischief"
 How dared you! How dared she!" Then as his mind regained its full poise, And how, even if you had the temerity to venture an entrance here, did you manage to pass my gates? They are never open. Bella sees to that"
 As she watched she saw his eyes, fixed up to now upon her face, leave it and pass furtively and with many hesi- tations from object to object, toward that spot behind him where lay the source of her great terror. till finally, with fatal precision. they reached the point where the screen had stood. and not finding it, flew in open terror to the door it was set there to conceal when that something else, huddled in oozing blood, on the floor beneath, drew them to itself with the irresist- ibleness of grim reality, and he forgot all else.
 Dead! Bella! Dead! and lying in his blood! The rest may have been no dream, but this was surely one, or his eyes, used to inner visions, were playing him false.
 Grasping the table at his side to steady his failing limbs, he pulled him. self along by it's curving edge till he came almost abreast of the helpless figure which for so many years had been the embodiment of faithful and unwearied service.
 Then and then only did the truth of his great misfortune burst upon his bewildered soul; and with cry which tore the ears of all hearers and was never forgotten by anyone there, he flung himself down beside the dead negro, and, turning him hastily over, gazed in his face.
 And where was I, when all this happened?" he demanded in a voice made low by awe and dread of it's own sound.
 You? You were seated here," mur- mured the little woman, pointing at
