One day when him an’ me was on the train she got aw ay on one o f them mountain grnd£S, an’ the llrst thing w e knowed she was fly in’ down the track at about ninety miles an hour, with nothin' iu sight but the ditch an’ tiie happy bunt in’ grounds, when we come to the end.

I thought he was gettln’ ready to Jump, an’ I see his finish if he did. “ ‘ Mike,’ I says, ‘for heaven’s sake don’t jum p!’ “ Fie clamps his fingers on the run- nln’ board to give him a chance to turn round an’ lookin’ at me con temptuous, answers: “ ‘Jump, is it?’ I)o yez think I ’d be afth er jum pin’ an’ me makin’ money us fast as I am?” —Portland Orego nian. Phy«i«ian and Surgeon, J M. Iia u r r , MAY Health is a magnet which irresistibly draws the man to the woman in life’s | mating time. Health does more than | tint the skin with beauty; it puts music | into the voice and buoyancy into the 1 r,tc p, as well as happiness into the heart. A great many women covet beauty and are constantly seeking aids to beautify them. Let a woman first seek perfect lit. h and all other charms shall be added to her. There can be no general health for women while there is disease o f the delicate womanly organism. The first su ¡> t'j perfect health is to cure womanly j dicerscs by tf.e use of Dr. Pierce’s Fa- voritc Prescription. It establishes regu- larity, dries weakening drains, heals inflammation and ulceration and cures fetn.de weakness. , " I it M four bottle« o f your ‘ Favorite Pr«- acrintion and one o f ‘ Golden Medical I>bc*»v cry ' " w r lt t * Mr».

H e expects to «ta rt out next spring as soon as the season w ill permit with a good roads train drawn by a traction engine, which w ill make a tour o f the central part of the state, travelin g al>out 600 miles. Before the start central points w ill be selected w’ here the train w ill stop and build a sample mile o f good road. Senator Earle urges an appropriation o f at least $ 1 , 000.000 by congress for the betterment of highways, and he also advocates a national vehicle tax of 60 cents a year for that purpose. One o f ills schemes is to have the govern ment make road maps o f every county In the United States, showing bad roads in red, fairly good ones In blue and Improved roads In black. He j would have these county maps pub lished in book form and sold at post- offices for 6 cents. Senator Earle says: “ I f I w’ anted to buy a farm in a cer tain locality, my first stop for the pur pose o f investigation would tie to pur | chase (me o f these little maps, and I I would lx? very sure that I would pur j chase my farm along the route of one j o f these good roads, for I have found out from observation that It costs 17 , cents less a mile to transport farm produce o ver an Improved road than over a bad one.” There is nothing more Important than good roads to the m aterial w’ el- fare o f \ country, and It is to he hoped I that congress may have the wisdom to take the matter up earnestly and make liberal approprlstlons In aid o f the good roads movement even If it Is , necessary to reduce the sum customa rily devoted to the Improvement o f waterless creeks. D a v w b lll t x o f R o , l i . T h e durability o f roads depend« largely upon th « pow er o f the materials o f which they are composed to resist those natural and artificial force« which are constantly acting to destroy them. The fragm en t« o f which they are constructed are liable to be at tacked In cold clim ate« by frost and In all clim ate« by water and wind. If composed o f atone or gravel, the par ticle« are constantly grinding against each other and being ezposed to the Impact o f the tire« o f vehicle« and the feet o f animals. Atmospheric agencies are also fit work decomposing and dis integrating the material. It la obvious ly necessary, therefore, that great care he exercised In selecting for the sur facing o f roads those stones which are less liable to be destroyed or decom- (tosed by these physical, dynamical and chemical forces. R M t n r f n g a n Old R o a d . A California association la making an effort for the restoration to usefulness o f El Camlno Ileal, the royal road, or the king's highway, which was travel ed by the Krnnclscan missionary friars In the days, more than a century ago. before the “ gringos" Invaded the land. This road was the moat direct route practicable between the pueblo« and the missions. It ran through very many o f what are now the counties o f the state, and Ibe supervisors lu these counties have been nsked to «Id the movement. Many of them have con sented. Forests cover one-fentn or tne sur face o f the earth and on « quarter o f Europe. 1
