PLANT TREES ON HIGHWAYS
They Make Travel Delight and In
crease the Value of the Ad-
joining Property.

Perhaps the idea of trees Of one va
riety is good one. But why not a
variety of varieties? Also, why shade
trees alone, If these be understood to
eliminate all consideration of peach,
apple, pear and the remainder of the
81 or more of precious memory? No
man who has been boy in rural life
can see other than wisdom in the sug-
gestion. AS for willful rapine, what
boy ever stole from the tree that hung
it's fruit invitingly over the ancient
worm fence?
Here is an opportunity for the pres
ent generation of farmers everywhere
to do bit of missionary work that
will cause the coming race to rise up
and call them blessed. They them
selves will live to enjoy the sweet
shadows Of the trees. Every motor
list will find fresh delight in the drives
along the bosky roads. The value of
the farm lands adjoining will be en-
HANGED far beyond the cost of the ex-
pertinent. If the shadow of rock
in a weary land moved the ancient deS-
ert prophet to a metaphor adequate to
explaining the solaces of his life's
lean journey, how much more high
ways, glistening white between an I'm
closing vignette of green would serve
to illustrate the delights of far
better country!

NEW AMERICAN COUNTESS

The new countess of Sandwich,
formerly Miss Alberta Sturges, the
daughter of a Chicago banker and a
stepdaughter of the late Francis II.
Leggett of New York, is scarcely
known In her native country. Her
mother, Mrs. Leggett, went to Europe
to live many years ago, and Miss
Sturges was educated In Paris and
made her debut in London 10 years
ago, when her mother became one of
the lavish hostesses in the American
colony who inaugurated the brilliant
regime of King Edward as soon as he
assembled the throne.
The late earl of Sandwich and his
nephew, the new earl, had serious
disagreement about the inclusion of
the American girl into the family.
The bridegroom's father, Rear Ad-
miral Victor Montagu, who died last
January, and his wife, daughter of
the earl of Hardwicke, fully approved
of the marriage. Yet even they could

RUSSIA'S LATEST HERO

Gen. A. A. Brousiloff, commander
of the Russian offensive against the
Austrians and latest hero of the cars
realm, is sixty-four years old and
looks forty-five. Brusiloff lives by
nerves, strenuous work and sense OF
duty. He eats very little. He regards
dinner as a necessary evil and it is
finished in not more than 20 minutes.
Immediately after, he goes to the work
room Of his head of the staff and they
are occupied together till late ut night.
The soldiers worship him. He
never courts popularity among them.
He talks to them seldom and then
with a matter-of-fact abruptness, but
in his few words lies knowledge of
the soldiers soul; skill in finding
the direct road to the soldiers heart,
which could never be taught, but
which must be deeply rooted in the
man himself.
Brusiloff's physical endurance at
sixty-four is said to be amazing. Even
Europe, he can outdistance expert and
