T h e cost o f a road Is depenaent upon not only the type o f con stru c tion hut the am ount and character of grading to he doue, the cost o f labor and m aterials, the width and thickness of surfacin g, the charac ter and amount o f drainage requir ed, and other factors o f equal va r iability. Based upon general av erages, it has been ascertained by highw ay specialist o f tho departm ent that under average conditions m a cadam roads can be built in South ern states at from $4,000 to $5,000 per m ile, gravel roads at from 1,500 to 2,600 per mile, and sand-clay and topsoil roads at from $800 to $1,600 per m ile. In New England and o th er eastern states macadam roads are reported at from $6,000 to $9,000 per m ile, gravel roads at from $3,200 to $5,000, and bituminous macadam from $8,00 to $13,000 according to tho character of construction, w hether surface treated, penetration o r m ixing method. The bitum inous type is quite general in the eastern states. As Indicating cost In oth er sections of the country, the state highw ay com m issioner o f Michigan reported in 1913 the average cost fo r macadam roads to be $4,300 per m ile, clay-graval roads $1,500 per m ile, and concrete roads about $10,- 000 per mile. The average cost o f State highways constructed In Ohio in 1913 was $8,383. A ccording to types, In 1912 the brlck-'paved high ways averaged $14,650 per m ile and the macadam highways $6,960. n California the flrst 356 m iles o f State system o f highways cost an average of $8,143 per mile and con sisted prlnc'pally o f thin concrete with a thin coat ot bitumen.

But this shou ld not be done during an epidem ic of diphtheria, as ths raw surface o f the tem porary wound due to the operation, is extremely susceptible to infection by the diph theria germa. If diphtheria should en ter a bouse h old, the household sh ou ld be in stantly and rightly quarantined. P re ferably the patient sh ou ld be sent to a hospital. Quarantine A il. The quarantine should include all persons in whom tho hacllll are present. T h e patient should be kept iu a room that can be cu t off from ail other room s. T h e ventilation should be good, with plenty ot sun shine and fresh air. A ll rugs, car pets, curtains and unnecessary arti cles of furniture should be removed and ca refu lly disinfected. This in cludes ail animal pets. No food should be allowed to .stand in the room , n or visitors allow ed. Only those in charge ot the patient should be adm itted to the room . All toys o r playthings should be thoroughly disinfected o r burned at tlie ter mination o t the disease. Expector ation shou ld be upon cloths, all burned, o r placed in u 5 per cent carbolic a cid solution until thoy can be burned. Bed clothing, etc., should be placed In this solution ana then thoroughly b oiled. The best available physician May Reeom e Prevnlent, Excessive rainfall and dampness, unusuul quantities of decaying veg etation, and poor sanitary methods in many localities during the last six months have exposed Oklaboma to outbreaks o f diphtheria duriug the ensuing fa ll and winter. All un clean conditions that breed disease should he destroyed, and In all homes there should be liberal use of disinfectants, with lots of sun shine and ventilation. T he appearance of a case of diph theria in a neighborhood should be met as quickly as an outbreak of flre. In addition to rigid quaran tine o f cases, it is often an exercise of the greatest wisdom to immunize all children in public schools, which should be closed If there is apparent danger of an epidemic. F o r all persons m ore than 1 year o f age, the im m unizing dose should never be less than 1,000 units, and whero there has been exposure to infection fo r live or six days, the dose should be 15,000 units. In in fants less than 1 year and more tban 6 months sbould receive from 500 to 1,000 units, from which the doae may be graduated to 100 units for a baby only a few days old. The anti-toxine i.s harmless. Failure to use it ts generally fatal. Diphtheria destroys both the old and tbe young. Parents sbould know tbat en larged tonsils and adenoids, common am ong children, predispose to in flammatory conditions of the throat should be called the m om enl diph theria Is suspected. I f the symptoms are con fu sing at flrst, waate no time, but adm inister anti-toxin at once. This shou ld be done even in sup posed spasm odic crou p , if the at tack falls to subside in three o r tour hours. It th e patient has been ill from tw enty-four to twenty-six hours, give n ot less tban 5,000 units. The dose fo r Infants under 1 yea r in developed cases should be at least 3.000 units; f o r adults 10,000 to 15.000 units. The diet should be m ilk alone un til the throat is clear o f membrane, and the pulse rato below 100 beats a minute. T b e m ildest case thould be kept in bed not less tban teu d a ys; serious oases, from three w eeks to a m onth, according to tbelr pulse rate and heart condition. It Is extrem ely dangerous to a llow a child to leave its bed when its pulse rate is m ore than 100.

One-sixth of the land surface of the glo b e Is occupied by the Russian empire. U T h e South and the West a nd the N orthern agricultural states have m uch to learn in the way o f rural th rift from the New England rural com m unities. The constant c r y is easier credit fo r the farm er, bnt w hat the farm er m ost needs is m ore thrift. Some o f the Southern statea are cursed w ith crop lien laws w hich are holding back the rural com m uni ties by allow ing a man to m ortgage his future w ork and hopes and keeps him continually In debt Instead o f al low ing him to lay som ething aside. It is an astonishing fa c t that Mas sachusetts has flve times m ore sav ings bank deposits than have tw elve southern states. In Massachusetts there are 3,300,000 people and 2,250,000 o f them have savings bank deposits. In three years the savings banks In connection wtth the publlo schools show ed 1,400,000 deposits. E very school In the rural com m uni ties ought to have a cou rse of "th r ift talks” , w hereby the teacher could lay b efore the scholars th e n ® ces.sity of saving a portion of w hat ever money they m ight earn. This m oney could be deposited In savings banks, and, later, when It has grow n , couid bc ti.sed to purchase good, safe bonds p.iylng three and on e-h alf to flve per cent interest. The child mind, as well aa the m inds of th ose who nre older, should he Im preg nated with the fact that It is not what one earns that makes a co m petency for old age, but w hat one lays aside.

T H E CAUSE O F B A C K A C H E , RH EU M ATISM , L U M B A G O Ever since the discovery of uric acid In the blood by Scheele, in 1775, and the bad effect It had upon the body, scientists and physicians have striven to rid the tissues and tho blood of this poison.

"She Is charming," Peter aaid dreamily. "She has lived with her grandmother up in New York state, and Is mighty sweet, mighty sweet. I wish you'd go to see her.

While Joh an sen was summoning the watch below, a couple of sailors, under the captain ’s direction, laid the can vas-swathed corpse upon a batrb-cover.

But what struck me m ost forcibly was tbe total lack of sym p athy on the part o f the men whom I served.

You'll get used to such things In time. It may cripple you some, but all the sam e you'll be learn ing tn walk. "T h a t’s what you call a paradox Isn't It?" he added. He seemed pleased when I nodded my head with the customary "Y o s. s ir " "1 suppose you know a bR about III orary th in gs? E h ? Good. I'll have some ta lk s with you som etime." And then, taking no further account o f me. he turned h ls back and went up on deck. That night, when I had finished an endless amount o f work. I w as aent to sleep in the steerage, where I made up a spare hunk. I w as gla/l to get out of the dclestahle-presen ce o f the cook and to be off my feet. To my aurprise. my clothes had dried on me and there seemed no Indications of catching cold, either from the la st soaking or from the prolonged soakin g from th e foun dering nf the M artinez, U nder ordl nary circum stances, after all thnt I had undergone, I should have been flt (or bed and a trained nurse.

"T ie a rag around It and It'll be all right " U k e the sava g e , the attitude of theae men waa stoical In g re a t things, childish In little things.

Yet I have seen the sam e man, lim e and again, fly Into tho m ost outrageous passion over a trifle. He was doing It now, vociferating, bellowing, w avin g his arm s, and curs Ing tike a flend. and all because of a disagreem ent with another hunter ns to w hether a seal pup knew instinc tiv ely how to swim. For the m ost part, the rem aining four hunters leaned on the table or lay fn their hunks and left Ihe discussion to the two am agun lsls. And they smoked. Incessantly smoked, using a coarse, cheap and offenslve-sroellliig tobacco. T he air w as thick and murky with the smoke of It. and th is, combined with tbe vIo lent movement nf the ship as she struggled through the storm , would su rely have made me seasick , had I heen a victim lo lhat m aladv.
