Federal Aid Roads bill. which became i
law on July II. 1915. OF this sum. $751;
100000 is to be expended for the con-
struction of rural post roads under coop
erative arrangements with the highway
departments of the various States. and
$40 100000 is to be expended for roads
and trails within or partly within the
national forests.
THE act limits the Federal Government s
share in road work in cooperation with
the States to so per cent, of the estimated
cost of construction. Federal aid may be
extended to the construction Of any rural
post road, excluding all streets or roads
! in towns having a population Of $500 OF
more, except the portions of such streets
or roads on which the houses are, on an
average, more than 200 feet apart.

sum provided is $25,000.000. or total
of 100000. In addition, $l.00O,0OO
a year for 10 years. a total Of $lO,OOO,OOO
is made available for roads and trails
wholly or partly within national forests.
THE class Of roads to be built and the
method Of construction are to be mutually
agreed upon by the Secretary of Asricul
ture and the State highway departments.
The act provides that after making
necessary deductions for administering III
proyisions-nOt to exceed per cent. o.

lation Of each State bears to the tota
population Of all the States, and
"one-third in thesstio which the mileas

ed to the sermon that followed. The
beautiful melodies rang through her
ears and filled her soul with salts
faction.
Elizabeth talks of the sermon and
elucidates it's fine points. Bluma
hears as in dream. She fairly aches
to reach home and run her fingers
over the piano in accompaniment to
that wonderful hymn:
"Consider the lilies of the field and
how they grow.
They toll not, neither do they spin;
Yet was Solomon in all his glory
not arrayed like one Of these"
1t is the hour Of twilight. Despair
seizes Bluma. She meditates on
suicide. What's the use of going on
like this? She was born in the
wrong sphere. She never will get
anywhere. Tears rush to her eyes
tears of self-pity, and she INDUCES in
the comfort which such tears bring.
1t would be good just to lie down
and sink into an eternal oblivion.
Perhaps if her father had lived things
would have been different. He had
bought her the piano and had been
so proud of her rapid progress in
music. And now it was over year
since he had died from an attack
of pneumonia How it rained, rain
ed, rained, that awful week; and the
gloom in her heart had deepened
when one evening he called her to
him and in hoarse whisper, he said
with the heart-breaking solemnity
of a man at the point of death:
"Gedenk du Dist Yiddishes Kind,
und sci gut I'll dein Mutter." Gre
member that you are a Jewish
daughter, and be good to your
mother.)
Could he have foreseen that dread
full struggle that was now going on
within her? He could have helped
her in her terrible perplexity. But
he was dead, dead and now there
was no one to understand.
There was no more music tor her
for whole miserable year, and she
lived in the rarified atmosphere of
Marie Corelli's novels, and the NOR
bid sentimentality of Dumas. But
at last the year of mourning was
over. She was gradually getting
back to her former proficiency in
her practice. Her voice was aching
to break forth in song. A million
melodies surged within her. But an,
unaccountable shyness had taken
possession of her, and she feared lest
anyone would hear her-she, who
