PROPER CARE FOR ROADSIDE
Means Substantial Addition to Value
OF Adjoining Property and Aids
Appearance.

Proper attention to the roadside
means definite increase In the pleas

preservation OF the road itself and a
substantial addition to the value of
adjoining property. No matter how
smooth and well constructed the trav-
eled road may be, II the roadside Is
not properly cared Nbr, the highway as
whole will not give good impress
sion. Macadam or gravel roads par
ticularly need the protecting shade Of

But One Way to Acquire Wealth.

Wealth is not acquired, as many per.
sons suppose, by fortunate specula.
lions and splendid enterprises, but by
the daily practice Of industry, frugal
ity and economy. He who relies upon
these means will rarely be found des-
titute, and he who relies upon aHy
other will generally be tome bankrupt.

TOO FAST EVEN FOR NEWS
 PAPER MAN.

A frightened dog ran into the city editor of the Wireless Monday morning. It was a head-on colli- sion, so far as the dog was con- cerned--that is if he was concerned at all. At that particular moment he seemed to be very much inter ested in another dog from which he was running. He was simply scared at the other canine and was trying to put a greater distance be- tween himself and the other dog. The latter dog doubtless being ob- vious to what was going on. The Wireless man, however, knew what was going on. That is, he knew it as soon as it happened, but as soon as it happend it was all over. It reminded one of dog days when snakes go blind, except in this case the dog had neither gone blind or had at some time previous been re- lieved of any manners, that is if said dog had ever possessed any manners. He was simply leading dogs life and was leading it mighty fast, too.-Fulton (Kyo Wireless.

Philadelphia, May16.-Judge F.. C.. Bonniwell, leader of the old guard democrats of Pennsylvania, issued a statement tonight that William G.

 Bonniwell claims McAdoo will carry Philadelphia by 10000 and will also win in these counties: AL legheny, Burk, Blair, Lycoming, Northampton, Tioga, Lackawanna, Dauphen, Mifflin, Cumberland, Adams, Clarion, Lancaster, Chester, Luzerne, Jefferson, Monroe, Le- high, Montgomery, Bucks, Delaware and Schuylkill.
 Judge Samuel Shull, democratic leader of Monroe county, Palmer's home, in a statement said Palmer will not be able to carry his home county.

Editor Freeman
 FLeeS to K0nSaS

Green Forrest, May 18.-Ben Fireman, former editor of Green Forest newspaper, is seeking pro- tection under the sheltering wings of Gov. Henry J. Allen. He has left his wife, five children and newspa- per plant here and fled to Kansas, according to information obtained today. Ex-Editor Freeman, who on more than one occasion has had trouble with circuit judges because of his alleged or would-be heavy ed itorial outbursts, is fleeing from a citation issued more than two weeks ago by Judge J. M. Jackson, of Phillips county.
 Freeman is alleged to have penned an editorial apropos the action of Gov. Allen in refusing to honor Gov. Brough's requisition for the return to Arkansas of Robt. l.. Hill, negro, alleged ringleader of the Elaine ln- surrectionists who caused consider able bloodshed last October in Phil lips county. Freman's editorial said that the negro could not get a fair trial in Phillips county because of prejudice against negroes and went a little further by saying he was well acquainted with the presiding Jurlst, Judge Jackson, and knew he would not give the negro justice. He com mended the Kansas governor Tor re- fusing to grant the requisition.
 When the negroes trials came up in Phillips Circuit Court two weeks ago, Judge Jackson issued a citation for Freeman to appear before hlm and show cause why he should not be fined or jailed for contempt of court. The citation papers were promptly served upon the ex-editorr Freeman is said to have told the of ficer he would show up in due time. The five-day limit expired, but ne failed to appear. Again the sherltf was instructed to bring Freeman into court. The editor no longer was at Green Forest, the bailiff reported to the Judge, and his whereabouts could not be learned.
 Local officers have been trying to locate Fireman for several days, but until today little headway had been made. It was said tonight that he had written letter to his wife here, and that it bore the postmark ot Kansas town. It is believed here that if the warrant for his arrest should be S ent to Kansas officers and he is apprehended, he will re- fuse to return to Arkansas without a legal fight.

PROOF OF MODERN DEcADENcE

Chicago.-Can you wiggle your ears? If not, yours never can be the brawn of the caveman.
 Can you move your scalp? If not, you are nearing the last stages of physical weakness.
 R. I. Mckee, physical director of the Evanston Y. M. c. A., says so.
 MT. Mckee bears out-atleast, so far as man is concerned-the contention of Dr. William J. Hick- son that man is fast becoming an effeminized physical weakling, while woman is in the ascendancy of her mental and muscular development.
 In an address to Evanston busi- ness men on Fighting Trim," MT. Mckee pictured man as slipping along on the physical toboggan to the abyss of flabby despair.
 "Thousands of years ago." he said "man had gill slits the same as fish, and his body was covered with a pale coat of hair.
 "He used his ears in those days, moved them about to make his hear ing more acute. He moved his scalp. Inability to move the ears and scalp today is a sign of weakness - Cleveland Plain Dealer.
