It provides that (250 per annum additional be al lowed for tbe purchase and maintenance ol necessary horses, wagon and equip tnent. In the average country districts this small allowance will be none too much for the wear and tear upon a car rier's outfit, as be travels over tbe rough roads In all kinds of weather is very great, and at the present meagre salary be is lucky if be comes out In tbe end of the year with his bead above the water as it were.

Dr. Lee O'Dell, a leading physician of Tylersburg, Clarion county, Pa., has in vented and had patented a cuspidor, and the invention has for its object to provide a sanitary cuspidor wherein a disinfectant or antiseptic is employed for destroying tbe germs, baoteria or harmful and con taglous foteign matter or sputum. Tbe invention aims to prevent the spread o disease, such as tuberculosis by tbegermB of sputum being Inhaled. In tbis con nection he bas designed a cuspidor adapt ed for public or private us, said cuspidor being constructed whereby it can be con veniently used upon tbe streets, public buildings and bouse for sputum and such matters as is expectorated by persons. A miniature pattern was shown us, and from lis get up it looks as though it would only be a question of a short time when a law will be passed prohibiting spitting only in receptacles of this kind, Tbe cuspidor opens and closes itself by a spring wbicn is operated by the foot by simply touching it when one wants to ex pectorate. Ex. Fined for Damaging State Highway, Thursday afternoon last A. L, Tbayer aud C. II. Scbipp were placed under ar rest on a charge of violating the road law of 1907, which seeks to protect State roads from damage by rough locks or other means. Tbe information was made by Burgess Reck, and at tbe bearing before Justice D. W. Clark on Friday tbe eyl dence showed that tbe accused had run a traction engine, weighing between six and seven tons, over the entire length gf tbe newly paved street, from the river bridge to the northern terminus of the paving, and in doing so had broken and damaged many hundred bricks, lorty or more being found in a stretch of only 60 feet. Mr. Tbayer, the owner of tbe en gine, had been warned not to proceed over the street but bad given no heed to tbe protest. The large wheels of his engine were of tbe regular traction variety, having cor rugations on tbe rims, making them doubly destructive on a paved highway, Under tbe act of Assembly such convey ances are clearly prohibited on State im proved roads, the, ajt providing as ful lows; "Any person who shall, by the nse of rough locks or drag-look upon wagon wheels, or by any other method or In any manner, wilfully or maliciously destroy or damage any improved highway, in this Commonwealth, shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor, and, upon ar rest and oonviction therefor, shall pay a fine of ten dollars for each and every of fense," Ac. In accordance with this provision, and upon the testimony of several witnesses, the Justice imposed a fine of ten dollars and costs of suit upon each of tbe defend ants. M. A. Carringer appeared as attorney for the prosecution, and D. I. Ball of Warren for tbe defendants, wbo are resi dents of North Warren, Tbis provision in the road law is an eminently fair and Just one, as without it, a person so inclined could in a short time easily and utterly destroy the most sub stantially built road In the country, with traction engine or other similarly con structed vehicle. Tbe penalty, however, should be much heavier. Dwelling House Burned.
