Deadly dangers lurk In the ground left bare by the departing snow. All Winter long there have been accumu lating deadly disease germs. These have been protected and kept alive by the covering of snow and now. with the first warm days, these death-bringing microbes are awakened by th? rays of the sun. and as the ground dries they are carried to all corners of the community in the dust that is blown everywhere by the Spring winds. The human body at this time is par ticularly susceptible to these germs, especially the germs of fevers. The system has been depleted by the fore going Winter. The blood is sluggish and filled with impurities. Tho nerves have not recovered from the tension they have been under for the past months. The stomach, the bowels, the kidneys, the liver are all at their worst. i It is, therefore, not strange that these., .germs of disease find fertile ground in which to thrive, flourish and develop Into deadly Ills. Spring is the time of year when one should fear an attack of fever, espe cially when the system is depleted.one should dread any severe illness. The vitality is at a low ebb. There is less power of resistance to throw off di sease, and it is on this account that fatalities are so much greater during the Spring months than at any other time of the year. There is but one way to ward off such dangers, and that is to fortify The Stamps of Finland. Finland is no longer a member of the international postal anion as by an imperial Knssian ukase the-Fin nish pdstage stamp is withdrawn frcm use; and the Russian postage t> ta trip substituted. While the Finnish post age-stamp unfiFa fow weeks ago had no value in the eyes of stamp collec tors, it has now at one jump reached to the head pf the Jist, and wt! proba bly De the most valuable iii the stamp collector's album. The Finns are, of course, furious against Russia for this addi ional Remonstration, .of "the Bear to blot .their conutry.off the map of the world.- ' ! But the Finns are by nature a stub born, people, and the method they adopted to still compel the Russian authorities to forward le'.ters with tho Finnish postage stamp ia amnsiog. Their "correspondence they inclosed in an ordinary envelope, on which they placed the Finnish poBt age stamp in the usual -corner. This envelope was then inclcsod in a thin transparent en velope, plainly showing the Finnish stamp. The outside envelope was then properly addressed and provided with a Russian postage stamD placed by the side of the Finnish. So far no notice has been taken by the Russian Xlovemment of this amusing method. -Chicago Times-Herald. One inch of rain falling upon one square mile is equivalent to nearly 17, 600,000; gallons.'

PJNKHAM MBDICIVR CO good goads g?tes System in Road Building. THE Governor in his message wisely emphasizes the desir ability of system in road building. He would have the old Stale roads reopened and others constructed, so that the Improved highways would form continuous lines, traversing county after county throughout the whole extent of the State. Such roads would, of course, connect the principal cities and large towns of the various counties and cor respond somewhat lo trunk lines of railroad, giving good traveling from town to town and from county to county, and each--would greatly con duce to the development of the com munities along its route and to the I founding of new ones. The Governor seems to think lt appropriate that the State itself should take the initiative j in the building of such roads, because ! 1 hey will serve general and not merely ! local interests, and it Is probably de- ; sizable that they should be constructed firs* of itlL Such roads, however, will not, as thc ' Governor malees plain, answer the ; whole need. There must be a multi plicity of cross roads and side roads connecting different parts of the same , towns and villages, and these are no i less important that the others. All the people do not live on the main roads by any means. Many a mau will drive over a side road to the vil lage, or from one part of the town to another, ahundred times for every sin gle time when he will drive to the next town or thc next county on the main highway. It would be most illogical and unjust to say that while Inter county and intertown traffic shall have I good roads intracounty and intra- I town traffic shall continue to wallow I in dust nn,d mud. This latter system j of local roads ls therefore as essential . as the former. But. unlike, the for- ; mer. It may properly, and indeed*] should, be left to local initiative and di- ! rcction. We should have^ then, two distinct yet connected and harmonious sy^- ; terns of roads. One would comprise roch great highways as the old Al bany Post Road, along th? eastern bank of the Hudson River, and the j Boston Post Road, skirting the Sound. The other would consist of intersect lng roads, gridironing each county and town. The State roads might wall be made of extra width and be con structed of trap rock, which Is proba Wy the best road metal In the world, j after the most approved plan of Tel- ; ford and Macadam. There Is enough ; trap in the talus of the Palisades and .In the quarries of Rockland County to build, such roads from Montauk Point to Niagara Falls, and the dis tribution of it to nearly all points would be cheap and easy. ?Granite, however, might also be used, espe- ! cially in combination with limestone. The local roads might largely be constructed'of local material at much less cost and yet be practically as ser viceable as the others. Limestone, which is so widely distributed through out the State,' makes an admirable road If properly used, some preferring It to trap or granite because It Is soft- \ er and therefore easier for the horses' hoofs. Some villages In Westchester County have, provided themselves wlt^h; capital roads by using thc refuse chips and dust "from the marble and lime stone quarries bf that region. Again, deposits 'of bowlders and gravel are to be found in almost every county, and a road built of broken "bowlders with a top-dressing of selected gravel comes pretty close to the best standard.'. But. whatever the material, all the roads of both systems should be built according to well devised and consist ent plans, so that we shall be spared the sight, now too often visible, of a fine bit of road a mile or two long run ning "from nownere to nowhere" or from a slough to a slough.-New York Tribune. An Important Matter. "Good roads" Is an important mat ter to be dealt with at the present session of the Legislature, but like most important matters it is in danger of being complicated by too many con flicting plans. That heretofore pur sued of inducing, counties and. local authorities to do their share, with co operation from the State, is a good one to adhere to, and lt will be better to be a little slow In the good work than to run up debts and-mortgage the fu ture. A bill just introduced proposes to issue State bonds not exceeding $50,000,000, subject to approval by a vote .of the people, for the construction and improvement of highways. ' That would start a new and prodigal policy, which lt is desirable to avoid. The Value of Improved roads Is one that ac crues as fast as they are constructed, and the people should be Induced to pay for them as they go along, or in cur only local and short time debts, at most, for sections that must be com pleted to be of use. The State help should be rendered liberally, but judi ciously and without Imposing heavy obligations to be met in the future. The work will have to be gradual, and will take a long time at best, but it will grow in appreciation as it ad vances.-New York Mail and Express. Good Roads.

I ha\e beeii perusing a learned and highly interesting lecture by Sir James Sawyer, M. D., on a topic which pos sesses a deep interest for all physi ologists and for most other folks as well-I mean that of sleep and sleep lessness. The average mortal scarcely comprehends how little we really know about the exact nature of the "Ape of Death," as Shakespearexterms that state wherein we pass peacefully into the Land of Nod. It Is not only the cause of sleep which constitutes a scientific puzzle; the cr. ve of sleepless ness is another matter which doubles a difficulty that before was single. There is no doubt that a sleeping brain re ceives less blood than a waking one. Durham's observations settled that point long ago, and subsequent observ ers inclined to this Idea that they had explained what sleep is when they had assorted the anaemic state of the brain as Its real cause. But it is obvious that while our brain iucreases its blood sup ply when we wake, as conversely it diminishes that supply when we go to sleep, these facts do not lead us to the vera causa at all. They are conditions merely, and uot causes. The move-; ments of a door are not to be explained by saying that lt moves on its hluges. What we desire to know ls what sets the door In mo-ion. And so with sleep. Beyond this question of the brain's blood supply, we have to face that of the brain's constitution. It is only by dipping ?uto the brain's struc ture tba: we are able to gain some adequate idea regarding the real con ditions that regulate the opening and the shutting of the mental door. When brain cells are carefully .studied in their different phases of activity and repose they are seen to undergo certain remarkable changes lu shape. The processes or ^branches through which contact ls reade be tween one cell and another are seen to be retracted in the resting statt, while In activity they are extended. How ever, the changes In question are brought about we may conclude that it'is'the switching off of the brain cells from each other aud the breaking of the contacts necessary for the car rying on of their work which repre sents the true cause of sleep. Fatigue of the brain cell is thus the dominant note of repose, and the mechanism whereby that reposo .'s secured ls seen at work in thc retraction of their branches. It is all just like a tele phone exchauge in this respect, where we find contracts made and broken continually in the active work of the centre. At night the connections are practically severed, and such as may be made in the case of the brain ex change carrying on the work of dream ing, they represent the work of the night shift of the brain. If this view of sleep be correct, we see more clear ly than ever that our resting period mutt represei . a habit, just as sleep lessness In Its essence is a habit of another kind. We break into the cycle of sleep when we suffer from insomnia and substitute another habit for that of repose. What our doc'ors do for us is to negative the vicious habit by re placing that of sleep, but hie labor, hoc opus est. With Sancho Panza, in truth, we may well agree when he ex claims: "God bless the man that first ip"?-' * * . " '. >.". tv Ti. ll .

Finding that the child persisted in her interrogations, despite the mild re proof of the parents, he decided to make a clean breast of the matter and j have It over at once, so he said with ! calmness: "Well, we don't live together.

Suggestions For Serving it Hot in Winter Time. -v*The soda water fountain formerly ministered to popular comfort only in 'summer. All the beverages served at that season were cold, therefore. But of late years it has been a common practice in drug stores in cities to serve coffee, chocolate, beef tea, clam broth and a number of other hot drinks. "The American Druggist" re cently offered some hints regarding the preparation of hot chocolate. It says that many druggists simply make a sweetened solution of chocolate, to which is added either condensed milk .br fresh cream. But the publication just mentioned recommends adding a little corn starch, and c'.ves the follow ing formula: - Powdered chocolate, four ounces; corn starch, four drams; hot water, two pints, and sugar, two and a half pounds Mix the chocolate and corn starch intimately together, and add six ounces of cold water in divided por tions, rubbing down in a mortar until a homogeneous, creamy mixture re sults. Now pour on the hot water, stir well, and boil until the starch is thoroughly cooked, making up the loss by evaporation with more water; add the sugar and stir until dissolved; when cold add one and one-fourth fluid drams of vanilla extract. The above constitutes the chocolate 6yrup, and to serve it as hot chocolate, draw about two ounces In a six-ounce mug, add condensed milk or cream, and fill with hot water. Where the trade is limited the choco late may be prepared fresh for each customer. It impresses some people to see it made in this way. Powdered chocolate for fountain use will be found best adapted for the extem poraneous preparation of hot chocolate. The modus operandi is to take one and one-half teaspoonfuls of the powder, and, placing it in the mug or cup, add enough hot water to cc Avert it into a ^smooth paste; add sugar and cream and a dash or two of vanilla extract and, filling the mug with hot water, the result is a cup of delicious hot choco late.

Heat is, of course, a factor in the c?se, but it serves only to make the air visible, for it is the air that we see.
