WHAT BAD ROADS COST.
Total 0.... of Wagon Freight tor
Twelve Months Represents. an
Enormous: Amount.
‘ Gen. Roy Stone figures out that there
are 1,500,000 miles of public road in the
United States, over which 500,000,000
tons of freight are. hauled every year.
' Putting the average. haul at. eight
miles—though this is probably an over-
estimate—he figures the cost ofearting
at two dollars the ton, or $1,000,000,000
the year. i .
.. With uniformly good roads the cost
of moving this freight would be. only
$400,000,000, saving $600,000,000 to the
public annually. This is equivalent to
:the yearly interest on. $20,000,000,000 of
three per cent. government bonds.
One—half of this almost inconceivably
vast sum would rebuild every mile of
tread in the United States at an average
cost of, say, $6,166 per mile, and the
other half would furnish a yearly in—
come of $200 per mile for their repair
and maintenance. .
At present the people spend the vas
sum of $20,000,000 each year in'repair—
ing their worthless roads. Thig' sum
would build 4,000 miles of thoroughly-
goo-d macadam road, sufficiently wide-
fog rural use.

Asthma Can Be Cured.
J. R. Niblo, err-school superintendent
Experiments made in the. Missouri
agricultural experiment station show
that in nearly all road conditions broad-
tired wagons pull easier than those
with. narrow tires. 0n macadam road
a lead of 2,518 pounds can be hauled on
broad tires with the same draught as a.
load of 2,000 pounds on narrow tires.
On gravel road, except when wet and
s10 y on top, the draught of the broad—
tire wagon is much less than that of
the narrow-tired wagon; alo-ad of 2,482
pounds can be hauled on broad tires
with the draught required for 2,000
pounds on narrow tires.
The trials on dirt roads give varying
results. When it is dry, hard and free
from dust 2,530 pounds can be hauled
on broad tires with the draught re-
quired for 2,000. pounds on narrow tires.
When the surface is covered with two
or three inches of dry, loose dust, the
results are unfavorable to the broad
tire. -
In general, the better the road the
greater the advantage of the broad tire.
On turf it is much easier of.draught.
run PALMIST’S REVENGE.
How Laska. Turned the Tables on
an Irasc-ible Scofi'er \Vho An-
noyed ‘Hlm.
The latest adept in palmistry to ex‘
cite attention in New *York is a young
man named Laska, who is said to have
created a furor in certain cultured cir-
cles. Laska is an interesting character,
and by no means unknown in New Or-
leans, says the Times-Democrat. He
stayed several weeks in this city a. few
years ago, and gave numerous private
exhibitions of his skill, at one of which
a little incident occurred which is re-
called with much amusement by every-
body who witnessed it; Among thdse-
present on the occasion referred to was
a. gentleman who regarded palmistry
as an out-and—out humbug and took no
pains to conceal his opinion. His com-
ments as the hand reading proceeded
were uncomfortably candid, and it was
easy to see that Ldska was having diffi—
culty in holding his temper in leash.
His black eyes blazed, but he made no
retort, and finally toward the close of
the evening somebody proposed thathe
try his powers on the skeptic.
The gentleman was rather reluctant,
but he finally allowed himself to be per-
suaded and stepped forward with out-
stretched hand. Laska glanced at the
open palm, and an expression of
mingled horror and pity overspread his
mobile face. Fflor the first time he

ORNAMENTAL PRESIDENT.
’ France’s Chief Magistrate Is Regu-
lated in All of His Movements
by Etiquette.
1
If under the French constitution
there is no provision permitting the
president of the republic to be useful,
ample opportunity is afiorded him to-be
ornamental. The treasury places at
the disposal of the president a yearly
allowance of $250,000, all told, and he
lives in the palace of the Elysee. Be—
sides, he is entitled to get his vegetables
and flowers from the palace gardens of
Versailles and Fontainebleau, and to
ride and hunt in the royal forests. The
details of the president’s daily life are
dictated by an official body known as le
protocol. It, is the gentlemen of le
protocol, presided over by a sort of offi-
cial Ward McAllister, who say when
the president shall wear a frock and
when a. dress coat. when he shall don
the grand cordon of the Legion of
Honor, and when the simple rosette,
when and where he shall attend the
theater, to whom he shall extend his
hand and to whom he shall merely nod,
and the number of kisses he shall be-
stow upon visiting royalty. They se-
lect, of course, his guests at dinner, and
the menu as well, and it is by a recent
decree of theirs that in the presence of
the-president no one shall speak until
spoken to.
wants a. “Hate Tire Law.
A Toronto man wants his government
“to enact a law compelling all vehicles
carrying a. dead weight.of 600 pounds or
over on the public highwayuto have a
tire not less than five inches wide. It-
is the narrow tire that is destroying
our roads. As soon as the rains soften
them the narrow tire cuts like a knife.
I do not believe that there is, or ever
will be, a. country road constructed'that
will 'stand the narrow tire. A five-inch
tire, however, will press and make the
surface still more solid, especially when
the road is softened by rain. instead of

Saves Doctor’s Bills.
Families in the country should always
. keep Brazilian Balm on hand. It is the
' doctor in the house, always ready and
reliable. For colds, coughs, croup,
catarrh, asthma, pleurisy, rheumatism,
constipation, female troubles, and all
kinds of’fevers it acts like magic, and
1 saves many a doctor’s bill and many a
, long s1ckness.
A Remarkable Cure.
Mr. Alexander Moore, a reliable busi-
ness man, of 1230 S. 13th St., PhiladeL
l phia, Pa., says: “I contracted a violent
cold which settled all over me. The
. pain in my chest and side was excruci-
ating. The doctor gave me medicine
and blistered my side, but I only grew
worse. Then you gave me a bottle of
'Brazilian Balm. I had little or no faith
in it, but decided to try it. I took 3 or
4 good doses before bed time, and rubbed
it well over my blistered side. That
night I slept like a top—my first good
test for over a week—and awoke in the
morning cured. Brazilian Balm is sim-
ply invaluable.”
