Blue Grass Roads Are Best.

1t is a pleasure to drive through the
blue grass district of Kentucky, where
they have W.T. they call macadam-
lied turnpikes. These roads are the
equal of any paved city street and
of course are passable at all seasons
of the year. They cost approximately
$1,000 per mile. The highways in Ken
lucky are from thirty TO sixty feet in
width. 1t is estimated that were the
highways of Illinois regulated to fifty
feet $25,O00.O00 could be added to the
wealth of the farmers of the state.
That alone would build more than 5000
miles of road.

Weather, books and roads contribute
largely to the influences of rural life.
Bad weather and bad roads mean
books
And books they say are the light
houses erected in the great sea of
time. They are masters who instruct
us without rods or ferules, without
words or anger. without bread or
money. If you approach them they
are not asleep. If you seek them they
do not hide. If you blunder they do
not scold. II you are ignorant they
do not laugh.
But the worst robber in all the
world is bad book. 1t has long been
the devils policy to keep the masses
Of mankind in ignorance; but. finding
that they will read. he is doing all in
his power to poison their books. Now.
let's see what our rural friend is read
ing. Oh, rara avis! Oh, book without
parallel in the history of commercial
destruction! The book" is a huge pic
torial. tricolored retail catalogue.
The catalogues of mail order houses
are n kind of leaky boat on the waters
Of temptation; some Of the temptation
will get i'm anyhow.

Mud a Great Help Too.

What is more natural with gloom,
darkness, rain and mud surrounding a
farmer or suburban dweller, when to
venture forth means either "A sacrifice
Of self or faithful horses, than for him
to turn 10 the alluring catalogue for
both pastime and means OF prOcur-
ing the necessaries of life? Thus it
can be seen that the third and best
factor in favor Of the catalogue houses
is mud
Man is measured by his deeds, and 1t
seems strange that after mastering the
art of reading the stars, discovering
the course of the planets. controlling
the iron monster. the lightning, the
sea and the wind. man shows his in
ability to conquer the one great prob
lem which is proving such a draw
back to the best expression OF his life
in rural districts as far as social and
commercial conditions are concerned.
Poor roads seem to be his heritage, his
master.
A country's stability is measured by
its agricultural Importance. as the
well being Of a nation is like a tree
agriculture Is its root; industry and
commerce are its branches and It's life.
II the root be injured the leaves fall,
the branches break away and the tree
dies. Community pride begins where
agriculture leaves off. and both are
equal and inseparable IN their impor-
lance to a healthy, happy, successful
existence for man.

Spend s15o,ooo,ooo.

This country today has about 1885,
600 miles of public highway, on which
it is estimated that the people Of the
country are spending S1J0,O00,O00 an
nually. Statistics say we also spend
$2,000,O00,000 for alcohol. $9,000000,000
for tobacco. and 1t is said that the
ladies spend $365,O00,0O0 yearly for
candy. If all this money could be APP
propriated for roed building we could
have a turnpike to the moon.
The principal cause of the Roman
empires downfall was its neglect of
agriculture-the exodus Of its men and
women from the farm to the city, the
life there to be spent in extravaganza
and riotous living. Go to any Of our
cities today and view the extravagant
dress and general trend Of life for
pleasure and you will feel that the old,
Roman times are being repeated.
It would seem that the remedy lies
in building good roads, narrow If ad-
visable, but firm and hard, and have
them all lead to your trading center
and to the doors or your local mer-

Nothing tends to make man a good
citizen so much as cooperation with
his fellows. No man can live for him
self alone. Selfshness leads nowhere
but to destruction. strife. bad feeling
and disorder. II is one of the mean
est OF all the vices.
The farmer and the town consumer
who patronize the retail catalogue
houses also assist materially in the de-
struction OF the local market and trad
ing center. This practice Of sending
local money to out of town merchants
Is dangerous habit

PLAZA

The Plaza was a scene of joyful ness yesterday afternoon and even- ing for the management had arrang- ed a really sumptuous holiday pro- gram that could be enjoyed by the fastidious or turkey-bloated patron
 Ralph Lohse and Mana Sterling, the latter very shapely and attractively pretty young woman, offered a nifty acrobatfc or. will we say, athletic turn to start the ball arolling. It's a clever team and fully deserved the rousine reception accorded it.
 Adele N Eva, pair of exceptionally pretty, modishly gowned and demure young women with talents for violin and accerdeon respectively, scored tri- umphantly with yesterdays crowds They were chic and unsophisticated in appearance and played with an air of indifference to the looks and mur- murs of admiration. They seemed tc play because they enjoyed it quite as much as the audience. Therein lies the secret of their unbonnded suc- cess.
 Mason & G'wynne did black-face exceedingly we'll. The male had some smart repartee that he handled for laughs with telling effect while his clever young partner "fed'' him ah- mira;bly and entertained with 8 de- lightful vocal number later. Of course, Josie F1ynn's Minstrel Misses were the hit of the bill, Twas ever thus when talented Josie was with the troupe herself, and fl there's anybody in the orchestra ol gallery who doesn't know that It's Josie Flynn, herself, who is putting over all that Imaginable comedy, they don't know much about vaudeville history anyway. Alice Joyce in "T'he Fettered Wo- man." a powerfully told and well act ed screen play, and the twentieth and last eposide of NThe Fatal Ring, complete the program.

Hartford, Nov s0-Connecticut Coneressmen and Senators can be in no doubt as to the existence In their constituencies of a widespread de- mand for the passage Of the Fedsral Suffrage Amendment. A new ses- sion of Congress opens next week and g. sa last message before the Con sressrnen left Connecticut deputations of women waited on all of them to ask them to consider favorably the amendment Neither of the Sena- tors received a deputation. Senator Branrigee refused to do so. He told the women last year that he had made ur his mind irrevocably against wom- an suffrage. Hardly believing that there tcould exist a man so obstinate that he could not change his mind, no matter what new evidence or new circumstances presented themselves. the Connecticut Woman Suffrage As sociation again approached him. ask ing him to receive some of the rep resentativs women of the state who wished to present the case Tor the federal suffrage amendment.

DRESS TALK.

The designer who stands sponsor for this charming evening gown must have taken into consideration that trains are not to be overlooked, re- gardless of the cry to conserve ma terials. Every woman looks her best in evening clothes, and especially is this true if the gown which she has chosen be In keeping with her figure and coloring, as 1t usually is when she has resorted to reliable sources ip se- lecting the model.
 It Is said by those who know that there is r1ore originality in the treat ment o2 evening gowns this season than in any other garment, and that certainly is proved here, for could one where? It is developed in satin and chiffon, black of course most pre- ferred, although 1t can be had in col ors as well. The winding draperies are often fashioned at the shoulder skirts slashed at the sides, as in this model.
 About this gown there is a fascin- ating charm, an artistic understand- ing of line and color, also of detail that Is most alluring, offset possibly b3 the shoulder draping, the square fin ished train and the shoulder straps which are of satin. The surplice line of the bodice ends in the trimming which Is embroidery and extends ir band effect around the front. The line of the front is carried out ir similar effect to that of the back. Where the chiffon is adopted, wide bands of the black satin are used fol trimming and edging-not an inartis. tic idea, either-and as these band. may be made of the left over satin economy has been thought of in mak' ing up this stunning model.
