TWO IDEAS OF CIVIL LIBERTY
Greece and Rome and Those of
the Gothic Tribes.

There was this radical difference be-
tween the governments of Greece and
Rome and those of the Gothic tribes.
In the former the state was every
thing, the individual nothing; the
state was thought to have a perfect
right to the property, liberty, and
even life, of its citizens. In the lat
ter the individual was everything and
the state comparatively nothing; all
rights were thought to exist to inhere
by nature in The individual; and the
state could demand nothing from him
for public use without giving him an
equivalent. Here we find the funda-
mental principle of civil liberty; that
principle which has been so carefully
guarded in the English and in all the
Anglo-American constitutions. and
which was so happily and tersely ex-
pressed by jefferson in the Declaration
of independence. Our rude Saxon an
cestors, though under kingly govern
ment, had more real liberty, and a
more just appreciation of the true dig
nifty of man. than had the polished cit
liens Of the republics of the Mediter-
ranean. The legislative authority was
vested in the witenage-mote, or assem-
bly, of wise men.-Dexter A. HawlSns.

SPIDER REALLY HAS BRAINS
10 Possessed of Degree of intelligence
That Has Been Recognized by
3cientists.

Spiders are commonly spoken Of as
insects but they aren't. They belong
to very different order of animals,
being "arachnids."
They get this name by, the way.
from NEUROLOGICAL maiden named
Arachne, who was so proud of her
weaving that she challenged Minerva
to trial of skill. The goddess ac-
cepted the challenge, but finding her
self in danger of defeat. lost her tenn
per. struck her presuinptuous rival and
turned her into a spider.
The spider is incomparably more
Intelligent than any insect. and its
c!everness as a maker of nets obtain
ed for it Il well-warranted admiration
1t is the female that does this work.
the male being only fraction Of her
size and of no account except for con
tinuing the species.
A spider has what may be called a
recognizable brain. But so. for the
matter of that, has caterpillar.

Gus system of the latter is mere string
with knots of nerve stuff (ganglia) at
intervals along it.

ALL RECEIVE SOME BENEFIT
Good Roads Are Advantageous Alike
to Producer and Consumer
Storage Charges Less.

When the roads of the great pro-
ducing zones of this country are i'm
proved. benefits will accrue not only
to producers, but tn consumers When
marketing Is distributed throughout
the year, storage charges must decline.
This country is paying at present large
storage prices on foodstuffs. The dis
advantages of freight congestion in the
fall cannot he entirely eliminated in
many places hut good roads will GER
tainly have marked tendency to dis
tribute hauling over longer periods.
1t Is reasonable to say, therefore.
that good roads mean that diversified
farming will be encouraged. the area
Of profitable production increased, the
opportunity for favorable marketing
improved. and more uniform distribu-
ton of farm products secured.

IMPROVED
HIGHWAYS
INCREASE IN MOTOR TRAFFIC
Statistics Show increase Of 1,41s,s2e
Cars Over 1918-Roads Must
Be Maintained.

mat the present interest in the con-
struction Of new highways should mo-.
divert attention from properly main
tanning highways already improved is
a point which the bureau of public
roads. United States department of az
riculture, has had occasion 10 empha
size many times in recent months, par
tlcuiarly In view of the enormous in
crease In motor vehicle traffic which is
taking place. The bureau recently
completed compilation OF statistics
from all the states Of the Union show
ing That there were a total of 1866, 44d
registered motor cars (including motor
cycles and trucks) In the United
States in 1919. This Is an increase of
% per cent, or 1.41S,S29 motor cars
over 1918. Such figures Indicate that
the cOuntry's highways are being used
far more than in the past, 1t Is pointed
out, and in consequence added atten-
tion must be given to the repair prob
lem. The increase In the number of
cars for 1919 over 1918 represents
about 10 per cent more cars than the
total number registered in the entire
United States for 1913.
Additional use of roads and streets
has, of course, been accompanied by
additional revenue paid to state and
local governments In the form of H.
cense fees, which in nearly all states
are devoted to highway needs. The
registration and license fees for auto
mobiles, trucks. and motor cycles in
use in 1919 totaled S64 697 ,255. 5S-an
Increase of 20 per cent over 1918. The
total revenues for New York and Penn
sylvann the past year were about dou-

tor vehicle registrations and licenses

CARE OF HARNESS IS
: OF MUCH IMPORTANCE
WASH Thoroughly With Soap arc
Water Before 0iIing.
II viii last Longer II Kept Clean and
Is Less Liable to Cause Sores on
Horses-Coliars Should Be
Examined Often.

Harness should he kept clean and
well oiled, 1t will then be less iiatIe
to cause sores on the horses and VIII
last longer Before the harness is
oiled il should he taken apart and
thoroughly washed with soap and
water. When nearly dry apply meats
foot oil with sponge or a wooden
rag. DO not hang harness in heat or
In the sun to dry. A tablespoonful of
lamphiack with two ounces of melted
beeswax may be added TO the oil for
black dressing. Fish oil may be USED
on harness. or prepared oils may be
secured AT harness shops. All parts
Of the harness should be strong.
Every horse should have its own col
lar. which should tit snugly to the neck
from top to bottom. Most sore necks
are caused by large collars or by
draughs being too low on the point OF
the shoulder. To fit new or an old
collar to horse soak the collar over
night in water, wipe II Off in the
morning. and fit IL on the horse. Work
moderately through the day. The col
lars should be examined every morn
ing and the bearing surface kept clean
and smooth. The horses neck should
be kept clean. A good plan in hol
weather is to wash II every night with
weak solution Of salt water. Keep
The collar and names buckled tight.
BEFORE hitching to wagon be sure
thar the neck yoke is safe and that the
traces will not become unfastened.
