With all tho isigns pointing indubitably to more land mora motoring every year, the continued outcry for "anti" legislation against dust and road injury is singularly pointless. What the conI ditions obviously call for are better roads and duBt preventives. The International Highway Congress, which meets in Paris next month, is a move in the right direction, and may mark new oppch in the history of roa3 'Making.?New York Globe. m For Better Roads. I Many Americans who live in or ' lear large cities would be surprised jo hear it stated that the United ^States has the poorest roads of any jnivillzed country in the world. Nevertheless, the statement is declared by all who have had an opportunity to learn by experience to be unquestionably true, when the roads jof the whole country are considered. Lately there has been much criticism jof the automobile as being defktructive of good roads. The damago |fs so great that in France the GovHernment has been forced to take up the matter, and is even now studying Preventive plans. In the United States, however, it may be that tho automobile will yet prove a powerful mnuence in better roads. The Amsr- ' lean Automobile Association has reIcently held a two days' good road3 Iconventlon In Buffalo, at which provision was made (or practical demonstrations of the best methods of 1 building and repairing, and for 1 jeriments looking toward the dlsrery of a binding material which tJ 11 not be sucked out by the pneu- 1 .tic tires. There aro signs, too, 's Youth's Companion, that the old *j [ley of throwing upon the towns < k j > burden of building the roads and If1 ?ptng them in repair is to be super\ ' led by the more sensible plan of fving the State do it. The towns 111, of course, care for their own 1 eets, but the main highways should i butijjgAnd cared for by the State, jU th^ are in France, Germany and / Hrerland. The National Govern9Et has decided to send the Direcjt of the Department of Roads to mm imei uniiuimi gooa roacis convcnJLon which will open In Franoe in Bctober, and at which the problem of J Bio automobile and the roada will BMttlve especial attention. , Fame.

The latest frames for photographs from Paris have a light blje mat which makes an attractive setting for a picture. A framer can easily duplicate one, as the colored mat is really the thing and can be chosen to match or contrast with any room. One often does well to supply their own mat when having pictures framed, for certain rooms, especially if tapestry is used. Many picture shops can furnish handsome silk or cloth mats, and it is cheaper to use these and quite as satisfactory, ns one must purchase so small a piece for one picture.?New York Evening Post. Lamp JViades Important. When choosing lamp shades for a room remember that color is of more importance than the material used. Porcelain and colored glass are often very satisfactory, but softer and more pleasing effects are obtained with shades of paper or silk. Ee sure to choose a shade which distributes the light properly, at the same time saving the eyes from glare. The color of the shade should harmonize with the walls. Red walls reflect red light best, and green walls are best suited for green shades. Contrasting colors dim the light and make a room appear gloomy.?New Yorh Evening Post. New Rugs From Old Carpets. Our upper hall is a passage hall in antique oak with green and brown I burlap. The caroet on the stair* I leading to it is brown, old yellow and green. In recarpetlng the hall it was our wish to use the same carpet as on the stairs, but when we wanted to order it we found that the design was no longer on the loom and that It was Impossible to get any more of it. Nothing else seemed to match in color or design and we were sadly perplexed. . At last a thought came to us. We gathered together the Wilton and velvet carpets that were so worn and faded from their latest service in the laundry that the storage attic wouldn't take them in. Even the rag man wouldn't pay his customary cents for them. These we sent to a rug company to have two new rugs made of them in sizes of two and one-half feet by fourteen feet and two and one-half feet by five feet. These firms weave any old carpets you may have into durable rugs and are highly to be commended. When I mir nM ? *- Ji-X ? icucu, WUI11 UUL, UITLV TUgS were returned to us we found them transformed into two beautiful rug3 of softest color. They were woven as a filler and contained grays, yellows, light browns and ?n old French blue. They cost just $6. For weaving old carpets into new rugs I am told the ingrains and Brussels are preferable. If you have any old carpets about the house do not be ashamed of them and throw them away. Keep them until you need a new rug. It is also well to tell the weaver that you want a blended color effect and what the predominating tone should be. Then, if your carpets do not have the requisite colors me weaver can a charming flower seeds, In all 10,000 ker- ' J Mh, easily worth si of any man's money, s H Or, send '20c. end we will ndd ono package f1 J of Earliest Peep O'Day Sweet Corn. \ salzcr sen co.. ecx a. c? l? c.-t>n?, wis. ; 6??- ?Ei | API I Tom PATKNT by our new method.
