Improvement of a City.
Paris has learned by experience
that city improvement pays. The
work of reconstruction and beautify-
ving undertaken by Baron Haussmann
When he became perfect of the Seine
In 1853 cost about $265,000,000, one-
third of which sum. was provided by
the national (government, the remain¬
ing itwo-thirds being furnished by the
city.
The expenditure was tremendous,
but the wisdom of making it never
lias been seriously disputed.
Further costly but valuable bene¬
fits for Paris are now planned. Rec¬
ently the French chamber of depu¬
ties authorized the municipality to
incur an indebtedness of $180,000,000
for another elaborate scheme of im¬
provements, including the demolition
of insanitary quarters, the construc¬
tion of new streets, gardens and
schools and other public works.
Americans are accustomed to boast
of their enterprise. This boasting
may be justified as to undertakings
of a private nature. But in the mat¬
ter. of public improvements American
municipalities lag (behind the more
progressive cities of Europe.—Chica¬

Big Shell Took a Rest.
Ope of the most remarkable inci¬
dents on record of the erratic ac¬
tion of a projectile has Just taken
place in connection with the battle
practice of the Ocean on the Medi¬
terranean station. Firing had taken
place with a 6-inch shell at a range
of 8,000 yards, and when the umpires
made an examination of the target
they were surprised to find a shell
resting on the wooden base. It is
no uncommon occurrence for a
shell to become embedded in the
structure which carries the target;
but in this instance the missile was
quite free. The only plausible the¬
ory of this is that the shell on be¬
ing fired fell short; then ricochetted,
and finally managed to reach the tar¬
get before its energy was completely
exhausted. Naturally the shell is
looked upon as a curiosity, and as
such it is proposed to send it to one
of the gunnery schools.—London

appearance on the stage she was sur¬

and joined in the chorus.—New York

CHANGE THE VIBRATION
It Makes For Health.
A man tried leaving off meat, po¬
tatoes, coffee, and etc., and adopted a
breakfast of fruit, Grape-Nuts with
cream, some crisp toast and a cup of
Postum.
His health began to improve at
once for the reason that a meat eater
will reach a place once in a while
where his system seems to become
clogged and the machinery doesn’t
work smoothly.
A change of this kind puts aside
food of low nutritive value and takes
up food and drink of the highest
value, already quickly digested and
capable of being quickly changed into
good, rich blood and strong tissue.
A most valuable feature of Grape-
Nuts is the natural phosphate of pot¬
ash grown in the grains from which
it is made. This is the element which
transforms albumen in the body into
soft gray substance which fills brain
and nerve centres.
A few days’ use of Grape-Nuts will
give one a degree of nervous strength
well worth the trial.

NAME THE COUNTRY ROADS.
Increasing Density of Farm Popula¬
tion Makes Necessary Better Means
of Locating Residents.
By J. A. ANDERSON.
Anent the use of the rural free
mail delivery, telephone, parcel post
and any and all other conveniences
that go to make farm life happier
and better, I thought I would like to
suggest a convenience which could
he carried out by the county commis¬
sioners of each county at a small
expense, that would do more to in¬
crease the pride of the rural com¬
munity than any other that I can
think of.
For the convenience of the public
it ought to be as easy to locate a
farmer’s residence in the country as
a city man’s residence in the city.
Let the country life commission in¬
clude in its recommendations that a
road that, runs from the east to the
west be called a “road" (or some
other name).
A road that runs from north to
south be called an “avenue.”
A road that runs from the north¬
east to the southwest might be called
a “pike.”
A road that runs from the north-
xvest to the southeast be called a
“highway” and all others called
“lanes.”
In other words, that the public
highways of our country should be
called such names as would indicate
the direction in which they run and
named alphabetically and numbered
numerically. Then the farm houses
could be numbered and the rural de¬
livery numbers that we now have
changed to the farm number.
This would assist the rural delivery
and the telephone very much to citi¬
fy the country and our merchant
houses would soon be distributing
country road directories for the ben¬
efit of all.
Now I believe that if the big pa¬
pers of the country would take up
this matter there would be created a
sentiment throughout the country
which would bring about a complete
reformation, or rather the establish¬
ment of a system of naming country
highways which would in time be¬
come general.
It would probably require enact¬
ments by the State Legislatures to
bring about a complete system of
this kind, starting with the various
counties. The main expense attached
to it would be guideposts at every
section corner, and this would be so
insignificant as to cut no figure when
compared with the great benefit, not
alone to the farmers, but to the Gov¬
ernment in the rural route mail deliv¬
eries and to merchants and travelers
elsewhere.
Wider Wagon Tires.
Necessity for a law requiring the
use of sufficiently wide wagon tires
to prevent the cutting up and rapid
destruction of improved and sur¬
faced roads is forcibly urged in a let¬
ter from Hon. Frank Sheffield, chair¬
man of the board of county commis¬
sioners of Sumpter County.
Chairman Sheffield writes to thank
The Constitution for the prize
awarded to Sumpter County for the
best roads between Albany and Ma¬
con, on the Albany-Atlanta good
roads automobile run, and includes
a word of praise for the work The
Constitution has done in the further¬
ance of this important State move¬
ment.
One of the things ■which impresses
Chairman Sheffield most as needed
for the protection and preservation of
the roads is wider wagon tires.
The Constitution has heretofore
urged the importance of some action
looking to this end, and that it must
soon come cannot be questioned.
As Chairman Sheffield points out,
when the roads are graded and sur¬
faced, “the tendency is to increase
the load, and the narrow tire becomes
more destructive than ever.”
By drawing the bill as he suggests,
so that it will apply only to new wag¬
ons and exempting those in use at
the time of its passage, no hardship
will result to anyone; the narrow-
tired wagons will gradually disappear
as they are worn out, and the roads
will he saved from their destructive
effect.
Sumpter County has already
worked wonders in road building,
and although, as Chairman Sheffield
says, she has just begun, “farm lands
along these improved roads imme¬
diately advance as much as twenty-
five per cent, in price, and general
improvement of the farms is notice¬
able.”
Sumpter is furnishing a splendid
example to her sister counties, and
the work here, as well as throughout
the State, should be furthered and
encouraged by the enactment of wise
and necessary laws for the proper
care and protection of the roads.—

On Women’s Rights.
Last year Sir Melvill Beachcroft,
chairman of the London County Coun¬
cil, made a speech at the Lyceum
Club on what women could do in
that body. He began by saying: “I
take it you all know what your rights
and what your privileges are In that
connection.” He was quite mistaken.
In any 200 women there is certain to
be a proportion utterly ignorant, not
only of their rights and privileges,
but of their duties. Even in the spe¬
cialized audience addressed by Sir
Melvill this was the case. How many
women living in London know that
they can vote for the twenty-eight
borough councils and thirty-one
boards of guardians of the London
County Council; that they can also
be elected themselves for these, bo
members of the Central Unemploy¬
ed Body or of the twenty-nine Dis¬
tress Committees, and also be co¬
opted to all other bodies like the
Local Pension Committees? Women
can be Aldermen of the Council, and
there is nothing to prevent any one
of themi from holding the office of
chairman Itself. These are the offmes
they can hold, but very few of them
do.—London Truth.

No Man is Stronger
Than His Stomach
A strong man is strong all over. No man can be
strong who is suffering from weak stomach with its
consequent indigestion, or from some other disease
of the stomach and its associated organs, which im¬
pairs digestion and nutrition. For when the stomach
is weak or diseased there is a loss of the nutrition
contained in food, which is the source of all physical 51
strength. When a man “doesn’t feel just right,”
when he doesn’t sleep well, has an uncomfortable
feeling in the stomach after eating, is languid, nervous, irritable end despond*.*
cut, he is losing the nutrition needed to make strength.*
Such a man should use Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery. It cures diseases of the stomach and other
organs of digestion and nutrition. It enriches the blood,
invigorates the liver, strengthens the kidneys, nourishes
the nerves, and so GIVES HEALTH 71ND STRENGTH TO
