MARYLAND TO HAVE
new ROAD MARKERS
Will Differ From Any That Have
Been Heretofore Erected In
The State.

III many respects the new road
markers which the Maryland State
Roads Commission has begun to erect
en- the State roads will differ fr)rl
any that have been erected hereto
fore in this country CT abroad, a..
cording to Harry D. Willier, Jr., as
sistant chief engineer of the commits
sion, in describing the new system
for a New York Times writer. The
initial highway marker is merely d-
rection guide or danger signal. The
Maryland plan is to give the traveller
much more complete information
Not only will the signs inform the
traveller where he is, indicate the gen-
eral direction to other points, but they
will also give him a map to guide
him on the way, map so clear that
che who runs may read"
Net only will the signs call attcn-
ton to dangerous places, but they
will also tell the motorist just how to
drive his car in order to avoiu
trouble. Ii addition to this service
signs. erected at the principal gate
ways to the State will explain the
Maryland traffic laws for the benefit
Of the stranger, and thus reduce the
probability Of entanglements with tie
law which otherwise might mar the
journey.
"Their road system built" says En-
gineer Willier, "the people of the
State are now turning their attention
TO the protection of the roads from
danger by thoughtless operators Of
heavy vehicles, and the protection oil
the travelling public from rockies:
drivers and other dangers Of the road.
The roads are being protected by svs.
tematic weighing of vehicles which
appear to be too heavy. Permanent
scales have been installed in some Of
the chief roads, and flying parties
pick up the overloaded vehicles on
ether roads with loadameters. These
methods have practically rut an end
to road damage by heavy trucks.
The next advance came with the or
ganization of the State police last
winter. Equipped with motorcycles
and operating under the State Motor
Vehicle Commissioner, group Of
virile young men, especially trained
for the work, is rapidly reducing the
hazards that go hand-in-hand with
speeding and reckless driving.
"The signs which will be used in
greatest number are the direction
and distance signs, which Will be set
up along the roads between towns and
at cross roads. These will have d
metal face backed with wood and be
mounted on wooden post set in con
crete, and it is expected that they will
give many years of service. They
will be 80 inches by 20 inches high
and will display in white letters about
three inches high on a black back
ground, the name of the road, as for
example, National Pike the distance
TO and from important points and all
principal connections. There will be
sufficient signs to clearly indicate the
desired points, so that travellers may
feel assured that if they observed the
signs they cannot go wrong.
"In addition to these directions and
distance signs there will be erected at
the limits of each of the large towns Z

DO You Look Forzvard To q
Good Nights Rest?

Doyou regularly antici-

Or do you dread going to
bed, only to stare, sleep
less, az the walls? The
difference between sleep
ing and staring is simply
a matter of nerves.
When your nervous
system is in a sound con-
dition, you are certain to
sleep well. But when
your nerves are worn out
and beyond your control,
your rest is broken and
your awakening leaves
you languid and irritable.
Doctors know that
much of the nerve dis
orders result from tea
and coffee drinking. The
drugs in these drinks
over-stiniulate, oftencaus-
ing the serious ills which
result from disturbing the

first am wondering how
many Of you select your hats in the
right way. What 1 mean is, do you
at your hat to your head without con-
sideration Of your form7 Really It is
a pity that so many women do just
that, which accounts for a person with
broad hips and narrow shoulders wear
ing small toque which may suit her
features but accentuates her ill-pro-

the fat, high -shouldered woman wear
ing a droOpy brimmed hat, which
shortens her neck, or the long, thin
uecked girl who should adopt the

narin, brim. But / am not writing
TO preach a sermon-sufficient to say
that a long mirror in which ones fun
length is reflected is necessary TO the
judicious selection Of a hat.
