"Although the gravel surface on a stone road is only an experiment with me, I know now that it is a success." About a month ago, the superintendent placed gravel on the surface of the macadam road from the Reid Memorial .hospital to Chester in oxderta experiment with this: method or treating a macadam . road whtch needs attention.. .The road had not been repaired for two years and was full of boles.. In spite of ' the dry weather during the past two weeks, the gravel has packed in splendid shape, he' said, and all the property owners along the road are well pleased with the experiment. "T am through with macadam roads, forever," he said.

SICK MAN DISAPPEARS.

TERRE HAUTE. Ind., Nov. 19. Because the appropriation made by the city council has been exhausted and futher appropriations refused by that body, Terre Haute's city hall was in

darkness last night. In addition, there i was no gasoline for the operation of motorcycles and patrol wagons, and I when arrests were made officers were ! compelled to inarch their prisoners through the streets or pay their fare one street cars.

FORT WAYNE. Ind., Nov. 20. Oscar Miller suffered an attack of acute appendicitis." A physician was hurriedly called and upon his arrival an immediate operation upon Miller was recommended. The doctor departed and called an ambulance.. , When it reached Miller's home the patient was missing. His whereabbute are unknown.

. I wish Uncle. Sam could take a census of the patrons of his parcel post. I think It would prove my claim that 90 per cent of them are of my sex and at least 85 per cent of the packages they send away are presents. He made this transportation of packages at less expense to us to be kind, but was it kindness? It makes its easier for us to make gifts, and we have the habit now in such a deadly, exaggerated form that any increase of it will prove fatal. Every woman has such a long string of friends and relatives to whom, for some altogether illogical reason, she feels she must make gifts that she is kept in a perpetual state of bankruptcy. The red ring around December 25 is not the only mark on the calendar apparent to her vision. There are rings for all her relatives' birthdays and wedding anniversaries and for many of the birthdays and wedding anniversaries of her friends. She has the very wrong notion that she can't prove her regard for any one unless a gift goes with it, and more often the gift is sent to prove a regard that doesn't exist. It is the source of more hypocrisy than any other social custom, and I feel like applauding the woman, brave enough to say she cannot afford, morally or financially, to follow it. Carrying Coals to Newcastle. I do not mean by this that I think we should never give to each other, but I do mean we should never give extravagantly or so promiscuously that there is no way of Judging by the tissue-paper-wrapper package we send if it goes to an enemy or to a friend. We spend altogether too much effort and time in sending gifts to friends which they do not want, cannot use and which create only an unpleasant feeling of obligation. If all that effort and time were devoted simply to being kind, don't you think it would count for more? ... If instead. Of the costly robe for the baggy-of -a wealthy friend's baby we sent two representing the same outlayto .babies of the poor wouldn't it .be a little more: sane? Don't - you - really think that we take entirely too many coals to Newcastle? I am trying to take less, and wish you would help me with your moral support. Let us give to those who need, and I do not mean only in the season that is coming, but all the year around. We might, following the strictly feminine fashion of doing nothing without first organizing a club with that object in view, form a No-Coals-to-Newcastle club, and give and give lovingly and freely, but only to those in need of the little we have to offer. Real and Fancied Oblfgations. It hurts to see a little child insufficiently clad and to know that some child in the next block has clothes stored away to feed the moths and more coming every mail by parcel post. I am glad the one child is so fortunate.

but always regret that, with a mother

and father to care for it so luxuriously, the uncles and aunts and cousins and friends don't turn their parcel-post offerings to the child in tragic need.

It is the one thing 1 would like to do

if I could take care of every little child of the poor but since that is impossible I am glad that with the assistance of my many friends all over

the world we can make life pleasanter for a great, great many. It will also simplify our own lives and help us to distinguish the difference between a real and a fancied obligation. We can give with greater thought of the need of the recipient when we do not give to so many; we can learn to look ourselves in the eyes and know that we are sincere. I am glad of the opportunity to say this in due season. It would be as foolish to say it in January as it would be to give a friend a formula for preserving rose petals in December. ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS. To Mabel L., Sbreveport, La.: Hats are trimmed more simply this season. If you have, as you say, a broad-brimmed velvet hat from last season, take the ostrich feather off it. buy a little fur to go around the crown and add a small bunch of flowers, or a single flower, on one side where the neds meet If you do not want this outlay, you may re-trim with the ostrich feather, putting it on 60 that it lies close to the brim. I am sixteen," writes . A. R. P.. of

Helena, Mont., "and mother says I am too young to go out with a beau unless she accompanies me. What do you think about it?" I think your mother is right. You will think so some day, and you may save yourself great sorrow by trying to think so now.

"What kind of hair uleach would you recommend for ray daughter?" asks a woman from St. Paul, Minn., who signs herself "Proud Mother." I would not recommend any. I do not think a hair bleach should be used under any circumstances.
