THE GREAT COST OFROAD MAINTENANCE.

Macadam Muet Be Constantly Watch-Ed?Brick Weare Well.

At the recent rond congress S PercyHooker, who has Imd long experienceas superintendent of highways in NewYork and New Hampshire, declared

that the cost of maintaining nil vnrieties of Improved roads Is about* th?same If the Interest on the InvestmentIs counted. He thinks that the greatei

cost of building a brick road makes uuinterest charge equivalent to the costof maintaining a macadam road. '

All this may be true, but one fact re-mains in favor of the brick road?ltwill be maintained by not wearing outwhereHs the macadam road Is likely tcwear out by not Iteing maintained. Aconstant bill for malnteqauce is bardeito pay. It appears, than a bill for inter-est on money Invested. If it will bemaintained there is no objection to anyform of good road, but maintenanceseems to be a doubtful thing, and theway to have a good rtmd is to get it inIts most nearly peruiniie.nt form at thestart The money s|»ent on many mac-adam roads has been practically thrownaway for lack of their proper mainte-nance. The money spent on brick roadsis still paying dividends In good servIce. And that la why It Is better tcbuild brick ronds In our present uncer-tain and growing stage of road work.?National Stockman and Parmer.

The beard conceals the rocklilce chinof the kaiser and tempers the aggres-sive bristle of the mustache, which is apatch of marked emphasis in the oth-erwise cleanly shaven face. And withthe salient mustuche alone it is morethan probable that the eyes would notappear to have the softened, contem-plative expression that the photograph

CHRISTMAS TIIJE.

Eve.

They say tonight is Christmas Eve,und, high as I could reach,

I've hung my stocking on the wall, andleft a kiss on each.

1 left a kiss on each for him who'll fillmy stockings quite:

He never came before, but oh, I'm surehe will tonight.

And tomorrow'll he the day our blessedChrist was horn,

Who came on earth to pity me, whommany others scorn.

And why it is they treat me so indeedI cannot tell,

But while I love him next to you, thenaH seems wise and well.

I long have looked for Christmas,mother ?waited all the year;

And very strange ft is indeed to feel itsdawn so near.

But tomorrow'll be the day I so haveprayed to see,

And I long to sleep and wake, and findwhat It willbring to me.

The snow is in the street, and throughthe window all the day

I've watched the little children pass,they seem so glad and gay!

And gaily did they talk about the gifts

they would receive;Oh, all the world is glad tonight, for

this la Christmas Eve!

And, mother, on the cold, cold floor I'veput my littleshoe ?

The other's torn across the toe, andthings might there slip through;

I've set my little shoe, mother, and itfor you shall be,

For I know that he'll remember you

while he remembers me.

! So lay me in my bed, mother, and hearmy prayers aright.

He never came before, but oh, I'm surehe will tonight.

Mldalcht.Mother is it morning yet? I dreamed

that he was here,I thought the sun shone through the

pane, bo blessed and so clear.

I dreamed my little stockings therewere full as they could hold.

But It's hardly morning yet, mother-it Is so dark and cold.

I dreamed the bells rang from thechurch where the happy people go,

And they rang good-will to all men in,a language that I know.

jI thought I took from off the wall my j

little stockings there,

And on the floor I emptied them ?jsuch sights there never were!

A doll was In there, meant for me, just

Hke those little girls

Who always turn away from me; andoh, It had such curls!

, II kissed It on its painted cheek; my

own are not so sweet,Though people used to stop to pat and

praise them In the street.

IAnd, mother, there were many things!

that would have pleased you too; jFor he who had remembered me had

not forgotten you.

But I only dreamed 'twas morning, anl Jyet, 'tis far away,

Though well 1 know that he will com-? jbefore the early day.

1 So I will put my dreams aside, though

I know my dream was true,

And sleep and dream my dream again,.and rise at morn with you.

! .

Ci: "'-"V IIOIIMNG.

The Mother.

All night have I waked with weeping

till the bells are ringing wild,

All night have 1 waked with my sor-row, and lain lu my tears, like i jchild.

For over against the wall as empty asthey can be,

The limp little stockings liang, and my]heart is breaking in me!

Ycur vision was false as the world, O

darling dreamer and dear!

And how tan I bear you to wake, andi find no Christmas here? -

Puyallup Cannery Has UnusuallySuccessful Year, Says

Report.

The advantages the Puyallup valleyranchers have obtained through theirco-operative cannery are set forth Inan article in the last Issue of the Puy-allup Valley Tribune, which said Inpart:

"How the organization of the fruitgrowers of this valley by W. H. Paul-hamus has drawn attention from manyand distant sections of the countryand has made Puyallup the center ofone of tht largest and most successfulenterprlsts of its kind in the world ispointedly emphasized m the report ofthis year's output of the Puyallup &

Sunnier Fruit Growers' associationjust forwarded to Washington at therequest of the federal government.This report shows that In berries alonethe cannery handled the astounding to-tal of 4,500,000 pounds. The total for1911 was a trifle over 2,000,000 pounds,the Increase being over 100 per cent.

Put for the largely increased capacityof the cannery, made at the sugges-tion of Mr. Paulhamus, and againstthe judgment of some of the more tim-id members of the association, the can-nery would have been swamped andthe consequent loss have been meas-ured in ten of thousands of dollars.

"In reading the table appended itshould be borne in mind that this doesnot include the pack In barrels, triedfor the first time this year, and foundmost satisfactory. In fact, ow-ing to the facility with which thefruit could be handled by this method,the, cannery force waa enabled to savefruit from decay that otherwise wouldhave been loßt. As It was, when theenormous yield of blackberries werepicked and brought In to the cannerythe plant was forced to run day andnight In order to save the fruit."

iGreat latereat la Seal Caatyalara.

At no time in the history of thestate has public interest been so uni-versally centered in a philanthropicmovement as in the present Red Crossseal campaign. A vim and purpose tobehind each purchase, a spontaneity.and sympathy that speak volumes for

| the future of the tuberculosis crusade.| Every buyer now appreciates the signi-ficance of the Red Cross seal salethrough the results achieved by the

I Washington Association for the Pre-vention and Relief of Tuberculosis andthe local leagues with the comparative-ly small fund raised during previousyears and each has determined to re-alize the full possibilities of this op-portunity to secure a really adequatesum for the campaign already mappedout by the association for the comingyear.

Better you and I were asleep in theslumber whence none may start.

And oh, those empty stockings! Icould fillthem out of my heart!

No Christmas for you or for me, dar-ling; your kisses were all in vain;

I have given your kisses back to youover and over again;

I have folded you to my breast with amoaning no one hears;

Your heart is happy in dreams, though

your hair is damp with my tears.

I am out of heart and hope; I am al-most out of aiy mind;

The world Is cruel and cold, and only

Christ is kind;

And much must be born and forborne;but the heaviest burden of all

That ever hath laid on my life arethose little li;ht things on the wall.

Hush, Hells, you'il waken my dreamer!O children so full of cheer!

Be a little less glad going by; therehath been no Christmas here.

Go tenderly over the stones, O light

feet tripping a tune!

The slighted thing sleeps In my arms?she'll waken too soon, too soon!
