One of the Most Important Problems
to Confront Highway Engineers—
Two Methods Suggested.
(By L. W. FAGE.1
The most Important problem which
has confronted highway engineers in
recent years 1b the getting rid of the
duBt on roads. Not until the introduc
tion of motor vehicles, however, did
thlB become a factor of sufficient im
portance to engage the serious con
sideration of road builders and road
users. Past motor traffic has reached
such proportions at the present time
as to shorten the life of our. most

macadam roads to a great extent, and
to keep them In a loose and uneven
condition.
The macadam road has been devel
oped with the object In view of with
standing the wear of iron-tired horse
vehicles, and It has met successfully
the demands of suburban and rural
traffic until the advent of the auto
mobile. When in its highest state of
perfection, the rock from which such
a road is made is so Buited- t o the
volume and character of traffic which
passes over it that only an amount of
duBt is worn off sufficiently to replace
that removed by wind and rain. The
dust remaining should be just enough
to bond the surface stones of the
road thoroughly, forming a smooth,
impervious shell. A road of this char
acter wears uniformly under the traffic
for which it was designed, and always
presents an even surface.
When such a road. Is subjected to
automobile traffic, entirely new con
ditions are brought about: The pow
erful tractive force exerted by the
driving wheels of automobiles soon
disintegrates the road surface. The
fine dust, which ordinarily acts as a
cementing, agent, Is. thrown into the
air and carried off by wind or Is easily
washed off by rains. The pneumatic
rubber tires wear off little or no dust
to replace that removed by natural
agencies. The result is that the stones
composing the road become loose and
rounded, giving the greatest resist
ance to traction, and water Is allowed
to make Its way freely to the' founda
tion of the road.
Many remedies have been suggested
and tried for meeting this new condi
tion, but a perfectly satisfactory solu
tion of the problem is still to be found.
Some success has attended the efforts
of those who have sought to find a
cure for the evil and this Is encourag
ing when the many difficulties to be
overcome in the treatment of thou
sands of miles of roadway are con
sidered. It Is apparent that this prob
lem can be solved only by the adop
tion of one or two general methods.

This has a world of meaning
to every woman who suffers
as Mrs. J. S. Blair, of Enter

are many thousands such.

Daughter of the. Minister from Cbsta Rig a
y It must be admitted that her wealth in worldly
possessions does add to her attractiveness to
many eyes. The continent Is filled with Impecuni
ous younger sons of varied brands of aristocracy,
and few would In the least mind marrying the
newest American girl because of her great
wealth. SHU, even without her wealth she would
deserve all the praise that has been heaped upon
her.
The new American girl of the Latin states is
strangely composite of the old and the new order
of things which her land has known. In the
modern world’s capitals and fashionable centers
she is Indeed a woman of the present; but In
Latln-Ameriea she Is a woman of the past. In her
native home still persists an order of thingB which
In many respects is almost medieval. The stamp
of Spain, so strongly seen on her, is also seen on
the religion, the language, and the social creed
of this girl. The laws and the landscape of her
people alike are still dominated by this ancient
Influence. Indeed, Spain itself has Infinitely more
variety in speech and custom than is seen in the
vast- territory It has peopled, and the people of
Valparaiso, Bogota, and Caracas speak better
Castilian than usually Is heard in Madrid and
Cadiz. .
Hence It is that the Latln-American woman has
but little of the freedom enjoyed by the Ameri
can girl she now would rival. There Btlll exists
between the sexes that armed neutrality which is
a tradition of the Spanish blood. Matrimony still
is a lottery. The -would-be husband never sees
his wife alone until .they are married. His nego
tiations for her hand are largely because the
Roman Catholic church dominates all society, and
It recognizes no divorce. In addition, the Latln-

American woman, wrapped up in her family, for
children generally are numerous, endures many
Indignities rather than separate from her husband
and babies.
The United States knows them best and fnost
pleasantly through their representatives connect
ed with the diplomatic. corps in Washington.
They are almost without exception representa
tives of the modern trend In Latln-American de
velopment. They have won for themselves in
official society a regard based primarily upon
their own beauty and charm, and only secondari
ly upon their official position.
One of the most prominent of these women is
Mme. Pezet, wife of the minister from Peru. Shq,
is considered a great beauty, and Is a leader In
diplomatic society. ’ Of equal charm and beauty
are Mme. Malbran, bride of the first secretary of
the Argentine legation; Mme. Suarez, wife of the
minister from Chile; Senora de la Cueva, wife of
the first secretary of the Mexican legation; Mme.
de Naon, wife of . the Argentine minister, and
Senora Castrlllo, wife of the new minister from
Nicaragua, who is a recent arrival at Washing
ton.
Among the younger Latln-American women who
have charmed social Washington, and whose beau
ty vies with 'that of their northern sisters, are
Sonorita Dona Luz Mendez, daughter of the min
ister from Guatemala; Senorita Marta Calvo, tal
ented daughter of the minster from Costa Rica;
Senorita Amelia Mejia, daughter of the. minister
from Salvador, and the young bride of Don Ale
jandro Herquinigo, of the Chilean legation, who
before her recent marriage was Senorita Mal
vina de pena, daughter of the minister from
Uruguay.
OMEN of the United States, look to
- your laurels!
mar / You’ve carried off all the worth
M/j iMjkl while prizes in international beauty
contests for a long, long time.
Your good looks, your superior In-
I telligence, your keen wit and airy
grace, to say nothing of your num-
erous other surpassing qualities and
accomplishments, have won for you an enviable
position among the women of the world.
In fact, you have worked your way up until in
recent years your supremacy has been unques
tioned. You are conceded the most beautiful, the
most accomplished, the most sought after wom
en In the world.
Beware! Your supremacy is threatened. Your
pedestal is Insecure. The world’s admiration,
which you so long have held, at some . ot distant
day may be transferred to the women of another
quarter of the globe.
Your competitors for the world’s admiration
are cIobo upon your heels. They have come upon
you all unawares; so quietly, In fact, that it’s a
two to one wager you don’t even know who they
are.
■Who are they?
The women of Latln-Amerlca.
Probably you won’t believe this. You’ll laugh
and say that the principal business of Latln-
Amerlca Is to raise comic opera revolutions, not
women oapable of wresting from you the laurels
which your beauty and charm have won,
If you think that way, juBt read what Mrs.
Sherrill, the wife of the American minister to
Argentina, has to say about the women of the
southern republics.
"They dress better, look better and have finer
manners than any other women in the world," de
clares Mrs. Sherrill. "They are enchanting crea
tures, and now Europe Is learning of their won
derful charm. They are fond of home life and
make ideal mothers, although they are not do-
. inestia to a sordid degree. They are as fond of
society aB the women of the United States, only
they are absolutely without the faintest trace of
snobbishness,- which is probably due to their
breeding. They are vastly well Informed and
well bred, women, and strangely enough their so
cial obligations are never such as to Interfere
with their home life*. The women are good moth
ers and are devoted to their large families.”
Europe, where the Yankee girl has so long ruled
a favorite, has fallen victim to the Latln-American
glrl’B charms. Whether Bhe appear In her favorite
ParlB, or In other 1 'centers of fashion or recrea
tion, she Is surrounded by a crowd of admirers.
She has the entree to exclusive drawing rooms.
At her chateaux, which she, loves to hire for the
season that she may entertain on her own ac
count, she is always sure ot as many guests as
she desires. She is the Joy of continental mod
istes, and the despair of those who would wear
gowns such as hers.

HOW TO TELL COUNTERFEITS
Finest Quality
Largest Variety
The hand Is quicker than the eye in detecting
fraudulent bank notes. The “feel” of the dis
tinctive paper used by the government is the first
warning signal that the money tendered 1b bad.
This paper is distinctive not alone because of the
introduction of silk fiber in the bill itself, but be
cause of the treatment the stock receives in print
ing. The silk threads are sometimes imitated’ by
pen-and-ink lines, but these do not bear close ex
amination. The engraving has been the greatest
protection, for even photo-engraving fails to bring
out the proper color values, and retouching by
the graving tool makes the lines heavy and ir
regular. Photography also falls In reproducing
the color of the seal, which must be washed In
with water colors, the black lines of the engraving
Bhowing through In counterfeits. The most dan
gerous counterfeit Is that In which a genuine bill
of lower denomination Is bleached out and a false
plate showing a high denomination placed upon
It. Here Is a genuine bank bill. It has the "feel.”
The silk threads are present. .If the engraving 1b
fairly well done and the color of approximate cor
rectness it becomes a dangerous counterfeit, and
bankers are at once warned to be on the watch
for It. In this connection the “check letter" often
comes Into play. AU government notvs are print
ed of ono denomination, four on a sheet, and are
lettered respectively A, B, C and D. Each note
bearB a treasury number. If, when that number is
divided by four there remains one, the check let
ter should be A; If two remains, the letter should
be B; if three, then C, and if there Is no re
mainder, D. If the result shows otherwise then
the numbering is wrong and the note Is a coun
terfeit. All denominations from |1 to $1,000 have
been counterfeited, as well as all our coins. The
most usual method of defrauding when gold coins
are handled is to saw the coins in half, extract
the interior, and fill with base metal.
