aa Will Do Wendara Toward Im
proving Country Roada.
If you can anllat tha boya or gr
In any country community In any Rood
work. It will toon bo done; and It la
not likely to b dona vary aoon unlraa
you do anllat them. If you ft tba
boya and (trie Interested In a Habbath
achool. It goea without aaylns that you
will have a good school. If you can
get tha boya and glrlt to attend church
regularly, you will bava a proaproua
church. If not, your church must la
evltably decllna. A minister who can
not attract and hold tha young people
had better ba thinking of banding lo
his resignation.
If wa are aver to bava good dirt
roada In Iowa. It will be necessary to
enlist tha boys. If they ara aver In
tereated In tha Job. wa will get tha
full benefit of tba road drag. A drag
and a boy and a good team of horses
will do wonders, provided tha boy's
heart la In It; not otherwise. Theory,
you sayT Well, lot's sea.
Miss Jessie Field, tha superintend
nt of achoola lo Page county. Iowa,
organised seven teams numbering
from four to tan each. Each team
mat and choaa a captain. When It
came Urns to drag tba roada. ba or
dered his boys out. and they obeyed
ordera. Mr. W. C. Drown, president of
tha New York Central railroad, who
baa a farm In that county, gava a
Driie of 1100 to tha beat team of boya
One of tha beat thlnga Colonel Hep
burn aver did In bla Ufa waa to pre
sent a trophy to tha boy who bad tba
beat balf mil of .road at tha and of tha
season. Tba teams put up slgna at
each balf mile, giving tha name of tha
boy who waa responsible for dragging
that pleca of road. Finally, tba su
pervisors paid tha expvnaea of D.
Ward King to coma and Judge tha
work, and decide which team waa en-
titled to tha hundred dollars, and
which Individual boy waa entitled to
tha trophy.
Now It goea without saying that If
thla work la continued and extended.
I'aga county will bava tha beat dirt
roada In tha state of Iowa, or In any of
tha adjoining atatea. Why? Decauaa
tha boya bava taken It In hand. Few
people realise what a tremendous
thought tha master gava to tha world
when ha aald: "Suffer tha llttla chil
dren to coma unto me, and forbid them
not; for to each belongnth the king
, dom of God" In other words, he reo
ognlted the value of childhood boy
hood not merely for spiritual things,
but for all things. "The boy la father
to tha man;" that la, what tha boy la,
tha man will become.
Why Traea Should Ba Planted.
In addition to aervlng aa a great

conditions within the forest area;
(2) upon tha distribution and charac

ROADS AID TO FARM VALUES
Modern Ideaa Induce Farmer to Pay
Mora Attention to Drainage, Grad
ing and Graveling.
It la a noticeable fact that farm
landa bava raised In value mora In
tha laat two or three years than they
did In tha ten years previous to that
time, writes Luclen A. Bweet In the
Farm, Stock and Home. Now the
gueatlon to ba answered Is this: Why
does thla condition prevail?
rtrat. the R. F. U mall baa placed
tba farmer nearer to the city In get
ting a dally delivery of bla dally pa
pers and letters.
Second, tha cooperative farmers'
telcphonea. Thla source of comfort
brings tha farmer Into almost tha
homes of his neighbors In almost tha
twinkling of an eye and tha cost of
this comfort luxury and necessity Is
only from three to four dollars a year.
Third, tha automobile In the hands
of many farmers.
lly the Introduction of the R. F. XX
mall and the use of automobiles by
the farmers. It has caused them to
be much more Interested In the drain
age, grading and graveling of the
roads both for the uso of the mall
carriers and for tha ue of thutr autos
ao that In tha lust two years mora
gravl haa been put on the roada in
southern Minnesota than has been
placed there slnco the roads were
laid out.
Fairmont township, Martin county,
the writer's home for 30 years, adopt
ed what la known aa the cash system
of road making through the bard
work of a few of our voters wa car
rled the election by a mojorlty of one.
Tbla waa dona about eight years ago;
since that time wa have paid no poll
tax, but all lands . and properties of
all kinds have been asaeased a cer
tain amount to raise cash to be ex
pended on the roads aa such.
Tha town board haa appointed a
road overseer who takea charge of all
tha roads of tha township. Notwith
standing, the township haa eight or
ten gravel pita with the very beat
quality of fine gravel, very llttla baa
been put Into the roads until the laat
two or three years. Ilut elnca tha
work of graveling the gradea and til
ing tha water away from the low
gradea In tha alougba the roada ara
ao much Improved that tba voters
are now raising twice the money for
road purposes that they did before
tha gravel waa uaed and tba roads
where graveled are In fine condlton.
To ba aura thla year the crop waa
good and two years ago the crop waa
good, also; but aa tha farms are tile
drained and the roada are made good,
farm landa advance very rapidly.
While there la pmhably no one thing
that haa contributed altogether to tbe
rapid rise In land values In tha laat
two or three years, It la quite plain
to ba aeen that tha drainage of the
wet placea along tha roads and the
graveling of the roada, putting them In
very good condition, has been tha main
factor In putting land valuea where
they ara at tha present time.
An Orchard Hint
Tba difficulty encountered In bar
veatlng applea In orchards where
clean cultivation la given tba trees
aa a reault of tha fruit falling In the
dirt may ba overcome to a Urge ex
tent by sowing rye tha latter part of
July and cutting It about two weeks
before tha time for harvesting, and
letting It lie aa a carpet to protect
tha fruit
Protecting Fruit Bushes.
Currant and other bushea that are
liable to ba broken down by heavy
anowa, may often be protected from
such damage by simply tying them
together In an upright position ao
that tha anowdrlfta cannot bend and
break tha ranea.

shifting motion of eyelids and pupils.
denote deceltfulness and selfishness.
Russet brown without yellow de
note an affectionate disposition,
sweet and gentle. Tha darker tha
brown tha more ardent the passion
Iilue, with greenish tints, ara not
ao strongly Indicative of these traits,
but a slight propensity to greenish

WHERE WRINKLES COME FROi:
Contrary to General Impression, Most
of Them Come From Laughter
Some Peculiarities.
The general Impression about
wrinkles la that they are oauaad by
worry, but tbe truth la that most of
them come from laughing.
To know bow to lr.ugh la Just aa
Important as to know when to do It
It you laugh with tha sides of your
face tha skin will work loose in time
and wrinkles will form In exact ac
cordance with tha kind of laugh you
have.
The man who always wears a smirk
will bava a series of semicircular
wrinkles covering his cheeks.
A gambler, who Is accustomed to
suppressing his feelings, gsneratly has
a deep Una running from each side of
his noae to tha upper corner of his
mouth, which In time extends to the
chin, forming tba shape of a half
moon.
A cadaverous person Is usually
marked with two wrinkles, one on
tha Jaw and the other under tha eye,
meeting at right angles at tha cheek
bones.
The scholar's wrinkle forma on his
brow, while a schemer's wrinkles coma
around his ayes and look Ilka spokes
