Building Roads and Men
Wayne county takes a personal interest in the
National road. Years &go it was one of the fan-
ous stopping places on the old highway. The ad
vent of steam and electric locomotion did not de
stroy the interest.
A few years ago this county held a good
roads day to renew our acquaintance with the
history of the thoroughfare and to arouse our attention to the necessity of hard-surfacing it. The completion of the concrete surface west of Richmond virtually makes the old road a modern thoroughfare throughout Wayne county. The state of Missouri is taking a paternal interest in the extension of the old highway west of the Mississippi river. The state proposes to hard-surface the highway from its eastern to its western boundary. This cross-state road will be one of the finest in the country; To bring about the realization of this project Missouri is using convict labor. It believes that good roads and good men can be built at the same time. Prisoners are put on their honor and given road work if they choose it.
The men are housed in ideal camps. The communities where the men are stationed do not object to their presence. It is reported that neighbors brought delicacies to a prisoner who was badly injured. The prisoners are treated as men, given opportunity to make good, and offered a chance to earn spending money. So far the experiment has resulted in the betterment of the prisoners. The men enjoy the work. No infractions of rules and no attempts to escape have taken place. Placed oh their honor, the men are proving that they possess manhood and Self-respect.

find fault with the young men.
The Be?. James Small, stationed at Fori SQL has set out his sphere of action in words- that give us a new conception of the work of the chap lain. This officer has no loafer's job. If he is conscientious in the discharge of the work which the army regulations prescribe, he will find himself an exceedingly busy man all day long. Read what Chaplain Small says : The first dnty of a chaplain is to preach to the boys a redhot, manly Gospel sermon each Sunday. It Will be the
duty of the chaplain to teach the boyi to gray is well as to fight if there is any soldier who Is under the impression that tt is womanish to pray iet Mm read the lives of great soldiers like Joshua, Havelock Gordon and Lee, who have been noted religions men. The chaplain has the help and encouragement of all
the officers in his work. The United States Army fegu
lations read: "It will be the duty of the commanders of regiments, hospitals and posts to afford chaplains assigned for daty such facilities as may aid them in the performance of their duties." ' He will be the school teacher of the regiment, to help the boys in their studies as opportunity offers. They are the attorneys of the regiment. The chaplain will plead
for the boys before the officers of the court-martial. He
is id counsel as to the moral welfare of the soldiers and!

Duties of the Chaplain

Anti-fat Tablets in Germany From The Chicago Tribune.
.ESPITE the food shortage in Germany, the Lune-
berger Anzeiger recently printed ah anti-fat adveiS tisemeni. The Hamburg Echo thereupon became
very indignant .with its contemporary for doing it at a time "when his ribs are poking through every honest German's clothes." The Echo continues: "It shows both a lamentable want of tact and an impertinence to the suffering people to publish an announcement such as the following: Coronova Tablets, containing Marienbad
salts. The safest means to reduce fat and flesh without dieting. . Two marks 80 the box.--New Apothecaries halt "The New Apothecaries hall will hot do any very flourishing, business 'with Coronova tablets. The war. food supply office has already taken good care, by Hsu ing its very slender bread, meat, and fat cards, that the heavy-paunched ones may be completely relieved of their superfluous adipose tissue, even without a journey to Karlsbad or Marienbad, and Without Coronova tablets, either." There have been many conflicting reports about the food supply in Germany, but this comment by- the Echo has the stamp of authenticity. It would be hard to exaggerate a situation that would call forth remarks of that kind. Germany may not be starving, but she is certainly

Revelations of a Wife BY ADELE GARRISON
"IF OUR IDEAS AND OUR IDEALS DON'T CONFLICT" I made a most humiliating discovery a few minutes after, the shabby proprietor of the cleaning establishment had gone. In my haste to pay the bill which Dicky had neglected for so long I had given the man all the money in the house. Tomorrow the "butcher, the toker arid the candlestick maker" would call for their weekly bills, and I had nothing with which to pay them. I must either
When a person saves your life It is not quite clubby to object to the manner in which he does it.. "That's, all right' said Katie grandly and vanished . to the kitchen.. For a minute I whimsically envied Katie. She had rio complicated financial problems. So much work, so much money, and only herself to suit in its spending. For the first time since my marriage I dreaded Dicky's home-coming. Our little dinner each evening had

Either of these course was Intolerf.ble to me. I always have had a terror of a debt, be it ever so small. Ii is bred in me. My little mother's parly married life, before my father ran away, was a long nightmare of debt and the duns of creditors. One cf my first memories is of my mother's despair at having no money with v.hich to pay a pressing creditor. ... I cannot remember .when I made, my first resolve never to owe anybody anyhlns. On the other band, long years of independence had intensified another trait of mine, that of hating to ask a f;vor of anyone. I had hoped that Dicky, when we started to housekeeping, would talk over his financial affairs with me as he would with any ether partner. I had planned to discuss with him what sum we could nfford weekly for housekeeping expenses. Then I had expected that he Mould hand me that sum each week -. ithout any further discussion. But Dicky's plans evidently did not run-along the lines which- appealed to me. The clay we came into our little borne he had taken my purse from my hand, stuffed some bills inside, and said carelersly: "That's for the house1 eeping. . Tell me when you need more." Thousands of women before me I suppose have gone through the experience I did, that Of trying to Btretch that money to the farthest possible extent so as to put off the day when I should have to ask for more. "Say, Missis Graham, the laundry rran here has the shirts and collars. He says a dollar and thirty-five cents." Katie, stood in . the doorway, to my eyes a very Nemesis. 1 counted out the change in my 1 urse. One dollar and five cents was the total. I handed her the dollar. "That is all the change I have here, Katie." I tried to make my voice nonchalant. "Tell him to add the rest to next week's bill." Katie came back in a moment, her e'es snapping with indignation. "What you think, Missis Graham? That driver, he one fool. He say he new driver, don't know yOu, he can't U ave laundry no money. He say he take it back with him. , I say, You big stiff, I giv4 you money. I have some in my pocketbook. So I pay him, get laundry. You tell Mr. Graham call up laundry ; have him come no more .here.' . "Thank you, Katie," I said faintly. "I will hand you the money when I get some change." Katie's slang and -manner grated upon me, but I realized that this was no time for criticism.

r.erves." Dicky gayly tossed a dainty box toward me. I knew It contents before I opened it He had brought me many similar gifts. . "Violets again! Oh, Dicky, how dear of you!" The temptation to let things drift, to take the easiest way out of the difficulty was very strong. Then the thought . . of . the shabby little man v, horn Dicky had owed . for id long struck my conscience like a whiplash. Violets! Almost every fancy gratified for me and for himself,, and, for all he knew, a man who had worked hard in his service, sorely heeded the money justly due him. My Puff tan conscience, lulled to. semi-consciousness in these days by the glamour of Dicky's personality, awoke and demanded a hearing. I had no right

bill he had neglected. I knew that he was extravagantly careless about rroney matters, also that he was still trough my lover to wish to please me. Suppose I told him I needed the extra money for some purpose other than housekeeping expenses, any excuse would do, and keep quiet about the cleaner's bill? I .knew that if I simply told him the housekeeping money was gone, even careless Dicky would know that something wasi wrong, that T never could have spent In the short time we had been keeping house the generous Bum he had stuffed In my purse. - "What is i she bothering her head about now?

Something about her appealed to the sense of humor, which I fear is rather lacking in; me. I had gently tried to cure her. of her habit. of addressing me as "Ob, say, Missii," but Katie invariably forgot the reminder. Katie invariably asked me to forgive her. . t "Will you honof e?"
