There was the savor, the desidera tum. the force and quantity that we have been talking of—a savor im mense and extraordinary, in relation to which the muddlement that I have called subjective came directly from the fact that it is not. like the savors to which I just paid tribute, "dished.” served, administered after the fashion of precious things in general, isn’t per haps in any degree the result of what passes in other societies for prepara tion. it grows wild, and I had doubt less partaken of it crude—with the marvelous effect of its not disagree ing with me.—The Sun. Had Improved a Little. I He was a renter, and at least every other season be was occupying a dif ferent farm. By a friend's advice he had moved the year before into an en tirely new field, a dozen miles from hts usual haunts, and had not been seen for several months. When the friend did see him. at last. It was quite by accident, business taking him into the old man’s neighborhood. The farmer, '^bailed him from the cornfield and rime out to the fence. “Hello," said the friend, “is this your farm?” “Yes, and I jlst come over to tell you, sir. that I’ll be ready to pay part of that claim of your'n before long.” "You must be doing well." “I think I'm doin' fust-rate, and I'm powerful obliged to you. sir. for headin' me this way.” "I am always glad to help if I can.” "I knowed that, sir, and that's why I come away over here so far from home It’s kinder strange to me, but as long as I am doin' as well as I am I am goin’ to stand It.” “Are you mak ing any money?" The old man's face brightened perceptibly. “No. I ain't, sir.” he replied, hopefully, “but I'm Iosin' it slower'n I ever done in my life before.” Woe of the Motorist. The motorcar shot down the hill at the speed of an express train, and then overturned, pinning the driver beneath it. The village policeman approached pompously. “It's no use you hiding under there, he said sternly to the half-smothered driver. “You were ex ceeding the speed limit, and 1 must have your name and address." mm ■i 1.000-MILE ROAD PROPOSED Canada to Build Route Similar to Lincoln Highway—To Extend From Winnipeg to Calgary. Central-western Canada will have a federal highway much after the plan of the Lincoln highway proposed across the United States if the proj ect being urged by the board of con trol of Winnipeg is carried out This project contemplates the construction of a concrete highway from Winnipeg to Calgary, to go through the more thickly settled territory tapped«by the Canadian Pacific railway. The thousand miles of highway through the provinces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and halfway into Al berta will be financed by the munici palities by which the roadway would be traversed. Special appropriations also will be sought from the provincial governments. The project has been received w ith enthusiasm in a number of the larger cities along the proposed route. It has been pointed out by the pro moters of the highway through the prairie provinces that its construction would enhance the value of the farm lands for several miles on both sides of the concrete roadway. I LOOKING AFTER GOOD ROADS { Splitlog Drag Can Be Employed U Good Advantage—Prompt. Intelli gent Action Needed. Every farmer should spend some time looking after the roads. The splitlog drag can be used to good ad vantage. Road dragging at the propel time w ill insure good dirt roads the greater part of the year. All it needs is prompt, intelligent action. It must, however, be done at the right time to get the best results. Yes! It is true in many places that the road dragging should be done by the county, but every farmer should take enough interest in the community welfare to see that the road in front of his farm is gone over with a split log drag. There is no other one thing that would add to our advancement, both commercial and social as much as would good roads. Spend a few hours at this season of the year, when the frost is coming out of the ground and the wet from rain and snow is drying up, with a splitlog drag and it will result in better roads, a good adver tisement for your farm and its owner. NEW YORK'S IMPROVED ROADS State Spending One Hundred Million Dollars on High-Class Thorough fares—Money Well Spent. The state of New York is spending one hundred millions of dollars in building good roads. That seems like an enormous sum of money, but there was a demand for good roads, and the results 6o far secured are worth all the effort. Over fifty million dollars have al ready been spent and about as much more is now available, and in a few years almost every portion of the state will be reached by high-class finished roads They are like boulevards, well constructed. well cared for and ought to be very permanent. SCRAPER BOARD ON ROLLERS Device Is Controlled by Levers and Can Be Made to Dig Into Ground or to Deposit Earth. A roller scraper recently brough out in California has a wooden scrape board mounted on rollers in such f New Type cf Roller Scraper. way that it can be raised cr lowered by controlling levers, placed in con venient reach of the operator's seat. This scraper is drawn by horses, and as the operator rides he can dig into tne ground, or deposit earth as re quired, simply by manipulating the levers. The trailing rollers not only smooth down the earth, but make the pulling easier for the horses.—Popu lar Mechanics. Waste Product for Roads. It is reported that an experiment is being made with a material that here tofore has been a waste product of glass factories fcr roadmaking. This is a thick, sirupy liquid that hardens when exposed to the atmosphere, form ing a substance that somewhat resem bles glass. Patience Required. It takes a real Christian to drive two miles through the mud doles and arrive at the church in an malted frame of mind. Pruning Bush Fruits. In pruning the raspberry and the I blackberry, cut oft the long slender laterals, forming an even, well rounded bush. Remove all small weak canes from the hill. Severe pruning ot laterals will not only improve size and quality ct fruit, but greatly in crease the yield. Soil for Asparagus. There is no danger ot an overrich soil for asparagus, in tact, tUis crop can only be grown profitably on very rich land. _____ !

CaJ., er Chitaie, I1L WAS HER GREATEST TORMENT Stuffy Atmosphere Was Bearable, but “Hot Air” Caused Her to Suffer Much. The waitress was pretty and con scious of the fact. The diner was frivolous and for ward. "Pretty tough to be penned up here pn a nice day like this,- the diner observed. "Yes, sir,” the girl returned. “You are too good-looking to be doing this work." The girl raised her brows. "Have you never thought of better I ing your condition?” \ “Oh, yes.” "It’s awfully warm in here.” “Uta huh.” "Don’t you suffer from the stufTy atmosphere?” Half closing her bright eyes, and ! l assuming a pensive air the girl tartly 1 replied; "No; only from the hot air." — Refutes Osier’s Theory.

The woman, Mrs. Jean Christie Root of Glen Ridge, N. J.. has learned to use a typewriter with great facility and makes light of her infirmities. Why, Certainly. Patience—So she’s learning to dance, is she? Patrice—Yes. “Where?” “Why, on her feet, of course.” The worst thing about friends is the ease with which they are convert ed into enemies. Being happy is often a matter of not having anything to make you oth erwise. , HAD TO HAVE TIME TO EAT Regular Meals Were Necessary After the Slight Repasts Incident to Business Hours. A tall, gaunt young man entered the office of the Globe Museum and Family theater and asked for the manager. “What can 1 do for you?" inquired a podgy man in a check suit. "I want an engagement as a freak.” “Who are you?” “I am Enoch, the Egg King.” “What is your specialty?” “I eat three dozen hen eggs, two doz en duck eggs, and one dozen goose ; eggs at a single sitting.” “I suppose you know our policy?" “What’s that?" “We give four shows a day.” “I understand that." “And do you think you can do it?" “I know I can." "On Saturdays we often give as many as six shows." “All right.” “And on some holidays we give a performance every hour.” The young man hesitated. “In that case." he finally said. “I must have one thing understood before 1 sign a contract” “What's that?” asked the manager, j “No matter how rushing business is at the museum," the egg king replied, "you must give me time enough to eat my regular meals at the hotel.”— Pearson's Weekly. Ostriches Cheaper These Days. It helps one to realize the South Af rican slump in ostriches, as shown by the sale of a full-grown bird for three pence at Grahamstown, when one recalls former prices. In the early days of ostrich farming, a chick newly out of the egg would sometimes fetch £10, and £500 has been paid for a good pair of grown birds. But those were the days when one plucking of a single bird would bring in £25, and of late years prices have not ruled so high—you could get quite a good pair of ostriches for £ 12. Ostrich farming dates from about 1&67, and brought many a pioneer a fortune when it first began.—London Chronicle. Too Sour. Professor Copeland of Harvard, as the story goes, reproved his students for coming late to class. "This is a class in English compo- J sition." he remarked with sarcasm, "not an afternoon tea.” At the next meeting one girl was 20 minutes late. Professor Copeland waited until she had taken her seat. Then he remarked bitingly: "How will you have your tea. Miss Brown?” "Without the lemon, please,” Miss Brown answered quite gently.—Chris tian Register. Served Him Right. If there was one thing more than another that he prided himself on, it j was the fit of his clothes. “I can never get a dress coat really to fit," he said to his partner, as he glanced down at a perfectly made garment, with a hope, of course, that she would at once disclaim the in sinuation. "Look at this thing." “Well, it is atrocious." she said cool ly. "But why not save your money and buy one? It is so much cheaper in the long run than hiring.”—Phila delphia Public Ledger. Just So.

The experience of Motherhood is a try ing one to most women and marks dis tinctly an epoch in their lives. Not on* woman in a hundred is prepared or un derstands how to properly care for her self. Of course nearly every woman nowadays has medical treatment at su*h times, but many approach the experi ence with an organism unfitted for the trial of strength, and when it is over her system has received a shock from which it is hard to recover. Following right upon this comes the nervous strain of caring for the child, and a distinct change in the mother results. There is nothing more charming than a happy and healthy mother of children, and indeed child-birth under the right conditions need be no hazard to health or beauty. The unexplainable thing is that, with all the evidence of shattered nerves and broken health resulting from an unprepared condition, and with am ple time in which to prepare, women will persist in going blindly to the trial. Every woman at this time should rely upon Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetabl* Compound, a most valuable tonic and invigorator of the female organism. In many homes | once childless there are now children be- j cause of the fact that Lydia E. Pink ham’s Vegetable. Compound makes' women normal, healthy and strong. ’ If yon want special adrice write to Lydia E. Pinkham Medicine Co. (confi dential) Lynn, Mass.

In my own life, as 1 wander farther and farther along the vagabond trail in search of truth and beauty. I find it easier and easier to find contentment without the riches of the world. Leave me imagination, and 1 shall still be rich; but give me all the wealth of the world and take from me imagina tion and you will plunge me deep into a bottomless hell of indescribable mis ery We cannot own things without be ing owned by them. Thoreau under stood this. His life was so successful that Emerson wrote of him, "Wher ever there is knowledge, wherever there is beauty, he will find a home.’* 1 cannot live Thoreau's life. But I can live my own. "In the transmission of heavenly waters,” says Emerson, “every hose fits its hydrant.”—Thomas Dreier, in the Nautilus. Naturally. “What kind of a dance was it the bellboys gave at the hotel?” “Of course, it was a bell hop.” To die for a woman may be an act of bravery, but the man who leads her to the marriage altar and agrees to earn a living for her is a real hero. Some people make a bluff at hiding their light under a bushel who never had a light A man seldom saves any money after marriage unless he has a wife who will save it for him. Do the best you can. You will prob ably not break any valuable records anyway. And a considerable percentage of our so-called friends will not stand the acid test. Vigor A determination to “get ( ahead** is found in every action of the successful man or woman. Vigor of body and brain comes principally from the food one eats. Grape=Muts and cream Is the regular morning ration for thousands who are “making good,” and who know that a dear brain and steady nerves are necessary to success.
