Generally resinol stops itching at

Resinol Soap is not only unusually

use gives to the akin and hair that

ROADS AS MONEY FARMERS.
Good Road 4 Source of Profit-the
Bad Road Means Loss.

Here is cheering news for automo-
pile owners and farmers as we'll. New
Jersey is arranging to spent $4,000
700 Tor roads. Pennsylvania is engaged
IN a grand plan for building thous-
ands OF miles of excellent highways.
Philadelphia has been told that Sc
O0O,OOQ should go into pavements
this year. These are important sign
boards. pointing in the direction OF
progress and common sense. A COM
munity can be largely judged bv it's
roads. The better the road the more
desirable is the place for home or busS
mess. A slovenly, rough road is the
insignia Of careless people.
The automobile is the evangelist of
the perfect roadway. The bicvcIe
spurred towns and cities into action
but the horseless carriage goes everv-
where and demands a smoother track
Even the farmer has learned that q
good road is a paying investment and
that a mud road is a horse killer ana
pocket drain. There is no extrav-
agance in good roads. They nav for
themselves very quickly, whereas the
pad road is constant source OF loss
So whatever else is or is NOT dons
city and state should push ahead viii
the plan for highway perfection. All
the money thus spent comes pourinr
back to the taxpayer.-New YorR

THE ORPHEUM

When a play is so thoroughly en-
crossing that you forget that you are
in theatre and leave with the re-
Instant feeling that you are parting
from dear and delightful friends. there
can be no question but that II is a
good play and that is exactly the eff
feet of Rich Man. Poor Man. the latest
drama from the pen Of George Broad
hurst played for the first time last
night by the Orpheum Stock company.
1t is that pleasing type of play. a
drama of absorbing interest. where the
parts seem to be made to mt the play
ers.
Ward Cassidy as old and loving Mr..
Mapleson, plays into his part prob
ably more than has ever been witness
ed in stock before this season. There
is not minute during the entire play
when the part was not being complete
~ filled.
Among the others that stand out is
Mollie Fisher as Bah. a charming poor
girl, homeless but cared for, sudden
ly placed in rich SURROUNDINGS and as
suddenly back again, back to happi-
ness.
Albert Patterson in the lead did
himself most creditably. Louis Nor
gan and Harry JOINER as English
gentlemen both did remarkably well
in their parts which were in character
the two extremes. There is not a part
but what is filled to complete satisfac-
ton.

Against German Victory.

New Republic: German victory
would not merely mean a disturbance
of relations throughout the seven seas.
Tt would mean a change in those rela-
tions to the prejudice of our interests
and those of the world as whole.
In time of peace England reserves no
differential advantage to her nationals.
All the world trades freely in the
British crown colonies. Germany is a
new colonizing state and generations
would be required to overcome the dis
position she has already manifested to
exploit colonies in her own exclusive
interest. With Germany established in
the position of mistress of the seas. our
trade would encounter closed doors on
every hand. Our shipping would be
handicapped by manipulation of bunk
er coal supplies. And finally, what of
our Jretension to maintain freedom
from imperial domination in the ter
ritcries to cur south? The sooner we
should cancel the Monroe Doctrine the
safer for Us
The passing of the power of England
would be calamitous to the American
national interest. 1t is as much our
concern that England should not be
beaten into surrender as it was Eng
lands concern that Belgium should not
be brutaily tIampled under.

The feature at the Grand for the last
OF this week is Fred Hartman. the hero
of the Winnipeg-St. Paul dog race last
January. The showing of Hartman is
different in the manner of his talk with

himself, telling only of the race as
shown on the screen, Of the other COM
petitors, the ways of travel and many
interesting incidents along the route.
His dogs are with him and he takes
each separately and tells of him. An
interesting talk on dogs on the north
is included. AS a vaudeville act it GER
tainly is different.

entertaining, each after their own man
ner. The rural comedy pleased for acts

FAREWELL.

If thou dost bid thy friend farewell.
But for one night though that farewell
may be,
Press thou his hand in thine,
How canst thou tell how far from thee
Fate or caprice may lead his steps ere
that tomorrow comes?
Many have been known to turn the
corner Of a street,
And days have grown to months,
And months to tagging years,
Ere they have looked III loving eyes
again.
Parting, at best, is underlaid
With tears and pain,
lest sudden death should
come between,
Or time, or distance, clasp with pres
sure firm the hand Of him who
goeth forth,
Unseen fate goeth too,
Yea, find thou always time to say
some earnest word
Between the idle talk, lest. with thee
henceforth,
Night and day, regret should walk.

THE STRAND

AS vehicle for dainty Anita Stew
art. The Glory of Yolanda, at the
Strand today and Saturday. succeeds
remarkably well. Yolanda appears as
a peasant girl, dancing through the
soft woods to the music of her beloved
song-birds. In her care-free enthu-
siasm she appears charming in the
extreme, and so thinks Duke Boris,
who comes upon her as he is hunting
with his fellow noblemen. Duke Boris
visits Yolanda and her mother in their
humble cottage and leaving a purse
and directions. suggests that they
come to Petrograd and he will see that
Yolanda receives the proper training
as a dancer in the royal ballet.
This story is full Of charm and
pathos and not over melodramatic
where the theme would permit of
much rougher handling. Miss Stewart
will please in this immensely.
