Items Gathered In From Far and Near
The Tollgate Doomed. From the Philadelphia Press. One of the strong planks in the republican platform adopted at Harrisburg this week is the one pronouncing for the abolition ot the tollgate. The full declaration is: "The republicans of Pennsylvania, through their chosen representatives in convention assembled, pledge ourselves to endeavor to find ways and means to rid the state of the toll roads, now so great a tax and burden upon the traveling public." There is no quibbling about this. It means that the tollgate must go from Pennsylvania. The great party which controls the destinies and frames the policies of this state has so declared. The Press has labored for this with seal and persistence. It has regarded the tollgate as a blight on the state, a survival from medieval times and a . heavy and unjustifiable tax upon the traveling public The Press platform la, and has been, that the highways of the state should be free. This is now the platform of the republican party of Pennsylvania, and this means that in n very short time the toll-gate must disappear from this commonwealth.
Conservation at Home ''v. With a country talking about conservation it seems hard to bring the matter home. Things are always hard to see when they are right under eyes and noses. Charles Deam, secretary of the state board of forestry said recently In a letter to the editors of this state: "jJo one acquainted with Forestry ; conditions la Indiana will deny that there is great need of practical forestry work in the State, Practical forestry will come when the people are educated to the necessity of It, and are convinced that it is a paying investment. The reason so little has been done, is because land pwners are accustomed to annual returns from their land, and are not educated to expectant values, such as forestry necessitates. Neither does the public appreciate the value of the forest to agriculture, fish and game, birds, insects, water supply, stream flow, climate, etc." It Is true that with humanity built in the way it is now and likely to be that It will h?.ve to be shown that forestry can be made profitable. That it is there is no doubt locusts and black walnut for instance. For the man who does not live a hand to mouth existence there is no doubt that the planting of trees is a greater investment than crops if he will find out about it. Or as Deam says "land owners are accustomed to annual returns from their land and are not educated to expectant" values." Some one who will write to the state board of forestry can make some money and do the whole neighborhood a service besides. The Spanish War Veterans The presence 6f the encampment of the Spanish War Veterans in Richmond is more than one of a series of conventions which have for some time come here. The work of the Spanish War was so quickly ac- ' tfomplished that it seems hard for many people to realize that it has had far reaching national results and international, and more than that, that the men who were actually engaged in it were exposed to great danger and suffering. There is no use denying that America owes a large amount of its regeneration its fighting qualities to the Spanish War the type of manhood that Theodore Roosevelt represents. There is a heroism of a finer sort which is shown by those men of silken fiber who quietly braved the fever camps. There is in Richmond today a man who braved the yellow fever test and came off with permanent disability a hero yes. There is nothing particularly spectacular ; about allowing a yellow fever mosquito to innoculate you that is the stuff of which the men who are in Richmond today are made. And it is only now that people are beginning to get the full meaning of the Spanish War and the men who served in it.
Women Who Don't Smoke Defend Sisters Who Have Formed Habit
New York. June 2S "More women today smoke cigarettes than ever before," says Miss Elonora Sears, the girl athlete of Boston. She goes on to add: "There is less objection to it In our social code. Personally, I don't believe that moderate cigarette smoking could have any harmful effect upon the morals of the smoker." New York women seem to be agreed that Miss Sears first contention as to the increase in the number of women smokers is perfectly true. As to the righteousness and good taste of the process opinions divide.
Putting the moral issue aside, what is the sense in women taking up with a practice which men themselves have admitted was physically harmful? The men might plead that they had become so inured to it for generations that the shock to their nerves would be too great if they suddenly left it off. But with women, cigarette smoking is comparatively a new thing." Miss Mary Colman, the "suffragist lawyer," had slightly different views. "I quite agree with Miss Sears," she exclaimed. "I don't see that there is any moral issue involved in the matter of smoking, either for women or

'I was brought up to believe that no lady ever smoked. I personally have never smoked, and I do not believe in the practice for women. I know many 'nice women are said to indulge in it, but it seems to me that the practice is essentially unwomanly" Mrs. Clarence Burns, president of the Little Mother's Aid association, said: "Physicians admit that the action of tobacco smoke on the throat and other organs is distinctly harmful.
preference, not of public morals. Precious few men will admit that smoking Is immoral for them. Then it certainly isn't immoral for women." Miss Mary Garrett Hay, one of the most conservative of New York's club women, frankly admitted that even she did not consider it "wicked" for women to smoke. "If a woman chooses to enjoy a cigarette in her boudoir or to have cigarettes passed around after a luncheon in her home, that is entirely her own affair," said Mrs. Hay.

Outing a message for those who try to play athletic games when they are unfit. A boy, for instance, is a little weak after a mild attack of an infectious fever, pneumonia, influenza or tonsilitis, and his heart is beating faster and more violently than it should on exertion. But the team wants him or he wants a record, or both and away he goes into training. "Suddenly one day the heart can no longer drive on its overload of blood and down goes the runner or oarsman in an attack of heart failure" and athletics gets all the discredit. The same danger lies when there is no training, the sport being purely inform

phase of common sense which is manifested in common prudence is necessary to avoid such perils.
A Blue Grass Anomaly. From the Cleveland Leader. It is claimed that Kentucky has actually built a state house without spending more than the original appropriation. . Is this a case of ignorance, lassitude or virtue?
quoted the prudent citizen. "Makes many a man a nuisance with the lawn mower," interrupted Mr. Crosslots.

A Preference. "Many a man of genius has lived in an attic." "True," replied the young man with inky fingers. "What I can't understand is how so many of them could afford nice roomy attics instead of hall rooms."
The Poetry Crop. "There's no such thing as poetry," you'll hear some cynic say. "The muse has had her fling; the lyre is warped and tossed away." No such thing as poetry! Tis false! On every hand It blossoms like the wild flowers in a glad and fertile land. It gets into the speeches of a statesman great and grave ; The advertising pages with alluring rhymes are brave; - The home-and-mother poet, with his sentimental tear, Walks arm in arm with baseball bards with phrases quaintly queer. It summons us to peace or war; it
shuns no time or place. "Tis quoted by the lawyers in a breach of promise case.

ual smiles to win, As dainty oft as Columbine and spry as Harlequin. And some like Pantaloon, with feet that tempt the dance in vain, Comes hobbling to the front with kind intention for a cane. Tis not the polished hymn of ancient scholarship, in sooth. It's the healthful effervescence of a nation in its youth. We find the greeting of a song, no matter where we turn. No such thing as poetry? There's poetry to burn!
Milwaukee, Wis., June 28 Victor Berger has made public a set of resolutions criticising the authorities of the Postofflce Department of the United States which were unanimously adopted by the national executivs board of the Social Democratic party of America at a meeting held In Chicago Saturday. The resolutions are the outgrowth of
alleged dismissal of efficient employes of various postoffices, including Chicago and Indianapolis. The preamble and resolutions read as follows: "Whereas, the absolutely unhampered right to organize for the attainment of better conditions is a prime necessity for the welfare of .every wage worker, no matter whether he be the employe of a private concern, of a corporation or of the government, and, "Whereas, the authorities of the Postofflce Department of the United States interfere with every effort of organization on the part of the employes of that department and lately have discharged some of the most efficient postal clerks because of their union activity and, "Whereas, this despotic attitude of the Postofflce Department is most oppressive to about 300,000 citizens of the United States who are employes of that department, and deprives them of their rights as citizens and workingmen; therefore, be it "Resolved, That we most emphatically protest against this undemocratic and unconstitutional policy of the authorities of the Postofflce Department of the United States. We demand that Congress investigate that department and remedy its defects, both as to the
treatment of its employes and of the public. Also be it "Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be forwarded to the President of the United States and to the members of both houses of Congress, and also be transmitted to the daily press of the country."
Patronizing. "Yes," said the somewhat severe lady, "my ancestors came over in the Mayflower." "From what I have heard," replied Mrs. Cumrox, "accommodations on the Mayflower didn't compare with those of a modern liner; but of course the rates were lower."

Vudi StaM See His ftmnoHimy Jar You've been reading about the Economy Jar and you've probably made up ydur mind that the next time you need fruit jars you will probably buy this kind. But the thing you need to understand is that the Economy is not a "next time" jar, but is a jar that you should use in place of the ones you now have. But you can not fully realize this until you come to our store and see this jar in actual operation, until you see how much fresher and better fruits ad vegetables canned in this jar look. But after you have seen. these things and have had it fully explained why nothing can ever spoil in the Economy, then you will know that the Economy Jar is the only one you should ever use and that it would be real economy to use it in place of the old fashioned, unreliable jars that you are intending to "use up" before you buy the Economy. And remember that in this year of short fruit crops that it's more than ever essential that you save all your fruit. You will do this with the Economy. You can do it with no other.
