American Exuberance.
A prominent English statesman who
Isited this country during the past
summer was talking with friends about
the national characteristics of Ameri
cans, and gave it as his opinion that
the Westerner Is the most truly hu
morous of the citizens of the United
States.
"Why." said the Briton, in explana
tion, "a relative of mine who frequent
ly visits the States for purposes of
sport tell3 rue that he was entranced
by the reply made to him by the pro
prietor of a hotel in Nebraska when
he asked If there were any quail in the
vicinity.
'Quail!' exclaimed the proprietor,
"I should say bo! Why, they've got to
be a regular nuisance 'round here. My
cook comulains that she can't throw a
piece of toast out of the window with
out four or five fat quail fighting to
see which shall get on it-' "Woman's

The Demand.
J, VERNON writes as fol
lows Ln the Press Bulle
tin, New Slexico College
q of Agriculture: Good
roads are Indicative of
a hich state of civilization. The im
provement in the condition of the com
mon highways proclaims in mute yet
unmistakable language the advance
ment in the civilization of a country.
Highly specialized industries, which
usually attend a high state of civiliza
tion among a people, seldom flourish
where means is unprovided for a quick
exchange of commodities. As the
standard of Jiving in a community
rises, it soon finds expression in a de
mand for better roads roads suitable
for the gentleman's saddle horse, for
the family carriage, for the salesman's
road wagon, for the delivery man's
automobile enr, and for the pleasure
6ekers' and tourists' automobiles.
The most natural system to follow
in road building is to begin the im
provement in the city or village, work
ing outward in the different directions
on the lines of least resistance, but at
all times striving to reach the greatest
population and the heaviest traffic.
The work should be placed in charge
of a man who understands road build
ing and road repair. This statement
is equally true whether there be much
or little moneyavailable for the work.
The system which permits the appoint
ment of men as road supervisors re
gardless of their fitness for the posi
tion is accountable in a great measure
for poor roads and for the feeble in-,
terest taken in road improvement.
Probably there is no more road-work
in many counties than could be super
intended by one man, and that man
could be selected with an eye to his
qualifications for the work to be done,
which would result not only in better
roads, but also in greater efficiency
and economy. Such a system prevails
in many of the older States of the
Union, and it has been suggested that
it might prove most desirable in this
section under our conditions.
The uso of improved labor-saving
machinery in the building and repair
of the common highways no doubt
would result advantageously to all
concerned. To Illustrate: If a ma
chine were devised whereby two men
and four teams with the machine,
could perform as much of a given
kind of work in a day as ten men could
perform in the same time with teams
and the old slip scrapers, it is evident
that the purchase and use of such a
machine, provided, however, that the
price was not exorbitant, would be
most desirable and would result in
much economy. Furthermore, if at
the same time, with such a machine,
the work could be done infinitely bet
ter, it would seem to be the height of
folly not to invest in one. The modern
road grader is just such a machine.
The road grader has become so popular
in most of the older States to-day that
the old slip scraper is seldom seen,
and when it does appear it is used
only in corners where the grader'can
not reach the work. With a modern
grader in the hands of an. expert in
every county, the roads leading out
from our cities and towns would soon
discard their shrunken appearance and
take on a more rounded, elevated
form, and the holes and inequalities
would gradually disappear, leaving a
surface so uniform that they would
delight the eye and afford pleasure
to the traveler.
Space will not permit of an extend
ed discussion of the methods and
means for road improvement, but at
least enough has been said to intro
duce a subject which is deserving of
much thought among the people of
this section. We are on the eve of a
great wave of progress, and would
it not pay both the merchant and the
ranchman to give the matter of road
building and road repair more atten
tion? The Paramount Question.
There is no question that can pos
sibly be paramount to that of good
roads. We have tried every suggested
local system and found them all either
impractical or inadequate. The State,
county and district plans to have good
wagon roads have all failed except
in three or four of the wealthier
States, and the roads are no better
to-day (some of them are much worse)
than they were fifty years ago, or
when first opened to travel. Argu
ment seems now to be superfious as
to why the roads should be systemati
cally Improved; the question is, how
can we get them so improved? The
experience of all the years proves
abundantly that it can only be done
by the general government leading
the way. Senators and Representa
tives will take notice that this is a
question affecting very materially the
whole body of the American people, In
town, country and city; In every trade,
calling and profession; the producer,
the consumer and the dealer, the
churches and every Institution per
taining to the public well-being. It is
a question of no particular locality,
section or class, but touches vitally
the affairs of every condition and
situation of life. The wealth of the
country is, every dollar of it, based
upon agriculture.
Mule Raced With Train.
A thrse mile race between a freight
train and a yearling mule was wit
nessed here to-day, ending in a dead
heat.
The mule broke from its pasture just
as the freight approached, and speed
ing along the right of way kept .by
the side of the train for a distance of
three miles.
In the race the mule cleared three
cattle guards and did not 6top until it
had reached the bridge over the Mus
catatuck, where it left the right of
way. The freight was running not
less than thirty miles an hour, and the
trainmen kept watch on the mule from
the caboose as it made its record

until the little widow's adviee brought

"I liked Grape-Nuts food from the
beginning, and in an incredibly short
time it gave me such strength that I
was able to leave my bed and enjoy my

my weight increased from ninety-five
to 113 pounds, my nerves had steadied
down and I felt ready for anything.
My neighbors were amazed to see me

they heard that Grape-Nuts alone had
brought the change.

A MAMMOTH SAWDUST PILE.
It Forme a Hill That Caver About
Twelve Acre.
Probably the largest sawdust pile la
tat world Is the cne at Cheboygan,
Mica. This la the-product of one mill
operated by the W. A. McArtanr
Company. The mill beiag run .by
water power had no way of dltposlcg
of lta sawdust. The company was cot
permitted to dump it Into the river
and for a few years an attempt was
made to burn it. There was so muca
smoke that the village passed as
ordinance prohibiting that form of de
struction. As a consequence it was
simply hauled oat tzto a vacant field
and during ths thirty years of its
growth h&s acquired monstrous pro
portions. It is a hill 1.080 feet loag.
875 feet wide, and ranges from 20 to
SO feet in height.
The hill covers tome twelve acrca
It is almost entirely white and Nor
way pine sawdust, because this mill
did net cut hemlock except fcr the
last two or three jears before it waa
closed down. The pile is undoubtedly
rotting a little at the bottom, but it
is well preserved and bright whea it
is dug into, the top and sidej harlag
crusted over forci a protection for the
sawdust underneath. In its present
state it contains rather too mucn
moisture to admit of being used for
fuel without treatment by some pro
cess of drying.
A number of chemists have exam
ined it with a view to extracting the
chemicals which it contains, but as
yet nothing has been done in this
direction. There is no question but
that it has a considerable chemical
value and prtawbly the time will come
when soma one will find a way of
working it up profitably.

Tho better class of druggists, everywhere, are men of scientific attainments and high integrity,
who devoto their lives to the welfare of their fellow men in supplying the best of remedies and
purest medicinal agents of known value, in accordance with physicians' prescriptions and
scientific formula. Druggists of the better class manufacture many excellent remedies, but
always under original or .officinal names and they never sell false brands, or imitation medicines.
They are the men to deal with when in need of anything in their line, which usually includes
all standard remedies and corresponding adjuncts of a first-clas3 pharmacy and the finest and
best of toilet articles and preparations and many useful accessories and remedial appliances.
"The earning of a fair living, with the satisfaction which arise3 from a knowledge of the benefits
conferred upon their patrons and assistance to the medical profession, is usually their greatest
reward for long years of study and many hours of daily toil. They all know 'that Syrjp of
Figs is an excellent laxative remedy and that it gives universal satisfaction, and therefore they
are selling many millions of bottles annually to the well informed purchasers of the choicest
remedies, and they always take pleasure in handing out the genuine article bearing the full
name of the Company California Fig Syrup Do. printed on the front of every package.
They know that in cases of colds and headaches attended by biliousness and constipation and
of weakness or torpidity of the liver and bowels, arising from irregular habits, indigestion, or
over-eating, that there is no other remedy so pleasant, prompt and beneficial in its effects as
Syrup of Figs, and they are glad to sell it because it gives universal satisfaction.
Owing to the excellence of Syrup of Figs, the universal satisfaction which it gives and the
immense demand for it, imitations have been made,' tried and condemned, but there are
individual druggists to be found, here and there, who do not maintain the dignity and principles
of the profession and whose igreed gets the better of their judgment, and who do not hesitate
to recommend and try to sell the imitations in order to make a larger profit. Such preparations
sometimes have the name " Syrup of Figs" or "Fig Syrup" and of some piratical concern,
or fictitious fig. syrup company, printed on the package, but they never-have the full name ol
the Company California Fig Syrup Co.-printed on the front of the package. The imitations
should bo rejected because they are injurious to the system. In. order to sell the imitations
they find it necessary to resort to misrepresentation or deception, and whenever a dealer pawes
off on a customer a preparation under the name of "Syrup of Figs" or "Fig Syrup," which
does not bear the full name of the California Fig Syrup Co. printed on the front of the package,
he is attempting to deceive and mislead the patron who has been so unfortunate as to enter his
establishment, whether it be large or small, for if the dealer resorts to misrepresentation and
and deception in one case he wiU do so with other medicinal agents, and in the filling of
physicians' prescriptions, and should be avoided by every one who values health and happiness.
Knowing that the great majority of druggists are reliable, we supply the immense demand
