When a woman cooks and washes and makes the clothes for the family, and walks the baby that has the colic, she complains about her back achins. or her feet hurting, but when a woman says, "Oh, my poor nerves," you know that she. does not do anything but read novels | find go bargain hunting. Xerxes are the most elegant kind j of disease that there is. They are! also the viost convenient because ifj you have nerves you do not have a, fever or look sick, and you can eat I anything you like or do anything! you want to. You don't have to work j because it makes you nervous to work, I und you don't have to go to church j because it makes you nervous to listen to a long sermon; but you can I play golf all day because golf rests your nerves, and you can go to the theater because it quiets your nerves. When a lady has nervous prostra tion it makes her very happy, because she sends for the doctor and he tells j her husband that she must get away from home and the children, and I that she must go on a long, beautiful j trip, and that he mustn't worry herj by telling her that times are hard and that she must economize.

When a lady has nerves you don't dast cross her. and you keep out of her way because she talks right back to you if you are her husband, and she scolds the servants und slaps the children. My grandma says that when a woman used to act that way they called it tempar. And my papa says that nerves are a modern improve ment. Then my grandma says, "Poor John." 1 wonder why. When a lady has nerves she always has lots to talk about. She can talk about them almost as much as she can when she has an operation, although of course nerves are not <juite so ex citing as having your appendix taken out. But they are more retined, and they last longer, and you can always have something new happening to them. . There are a great many kinds of nervous prostration. There's the kind j you have, which comes on sudden, j when you get a letter tliat your hus band's mother is coming to pay you a | visit. And there's the kind of nervous j prostration you get when you want to !go to the seashore in the summer. ! And there's the kind of nervous pros jtration that you get when you want Ito break up housekeeping and go and live in a hotel, and there's the kind of nerves you get when folks won't I do things your way. I 'specs there's a million kinds of nerves, and some women have got them all. Men don't seem to have so many nerves like ladies. But when a man i has nerves they smell funny, like my | papa's whisky bottle. 1 saw Mr. Brown one day when Mrs. Brown said | he was awful nervous, and he walked j terrible queer and couldn't find the door, and she put him to bed, and put ice cloths on his head, and when njy mamma has nerves my papa bangs the door behind him and beats it. People who have nervous prostra tion do not die. and they look awful ! well and wear good clothes, but their I families look sick and have on last I year's hats.

STITE HIGHWAYS lEPORTHBS Charges of Excessive Overhead Charges Are Met With State ments of Cold Figures A resume of the annual report of the State Highway Department for the vear ending June 1, 1914, completely upsets the contention of various news papers and candidates and their echo ers that "overhead" expenses of the department have run over sixty per cent. In fact, the cold figures of the report show that instead of money having been paid out as charged that I there is a large balance in hank. | The ridiculous assertion that sixty* i eight cents out of every dollar ex i pended by the State Highway De partment goes towards overhead charges Is riddled by the logical ex position of the truth told by the fig ures. Xhese f» cts are mad * clear in the report: It is not true that $14.305.541.33 has been "turned over" to State Highway Commissioner Bigelow. It is not true that the legislature has appropriated that amount of money for the direct use of the de partment. It is not true that $9,344,408.60 has been expended in overhead charges. With regard to the amount appro priated, the truth is that $12,657,- 3r,2.»0 is the sum total of all funds DULL SPLiniNG, SICK HEADACHE Dr. James' Headache Powders relieve at once—lo cents a package.

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH which the Legislature has set aside for the direct use of the present State Highway Department. Out of this amount $2,553,270.14 was in the State Treasury unexpended on June 1. 19X4. This makes the amount actually ex pended $10,104,082.76 instead of $14,- 905,541.33. It is a mistake to assume that even this $10,104,082.76 has been handed over to the State Highway Depart ment to expend it as it saw fit. On the contrary the Legislature specifi cally designated the various purposes for which the great bulk of this money was to be used and the de partment had no authority to spend these funds except in the manner and for the purposes laid down by the Legislatures and lias not attempted to do so. For example, out of the $10,104,- 082.76 of appropriations expended, the Legislatures required that $1,900,000 could be used solely for State aid, the expenditure of which must be initiated by the counties, townships and bor oughs and that 12,000,000 could he expended only for maintenance and for no other purposes. There were various other restrictions as to how the department was to be permitted to use the money. As a matter of fact only $5,700,000 was appropriated by tho Legislatures for the actual work of construction of State highways. Another important fact is that, in addition to the $12,657,352.90 men tioned above, there is the sum of $2,- 248.188.43 which must be considered solely us a fund over which tho de partment could exercise no discretion other than that of trustee. This sum Included the township bonus funds set aside by the Legislatures of 1911 and 1913 and the turnpike purchase fund. There is also to be taken Into ac count the automobile division expense appropriations amounting to $295,000. This money is designated for salaries, automobile license tags and expenses of that division of the State Govern ment which has to do with the licens ing of motor vehicles. It has properly no relation whatever to highway con struction or maintenance, although it collects and turns into the State Treasury more than a million dollars a year. To set up the contention that the department has expended $9,344,- 408.65, or anything like that sum, in overhead charges, it is necessary ar bitrarily to classify as overhead 'charges such items as the $2,553,270.14 unexpended balance in the State Treasury, the existence of which is ignored by the critics of the depart ment; the. trust funds of $2,248,188.43 referred to above, over which the de partment exercises only custodial care; the $295,000 cost of operating the automobile license division; the $640,- 04 5.65 which the Legislature directed should be expended for surveying, plotting and inspecting all of the 8,800 miles of highways taken over by the State under the Sproul act; the $360,- 337.23 for the making of county maps showing all State and township roads, which maps the Legislature ordered to be made for the information of the public; the $12,342 expended for per manent metal signs and sign posts for the benefit of the traveling public; the expended for machinery, tools and equipment, whloli constitute a substantial asset, the $22,707.07 for advertising of bids for construction of roads and bridges and for the pur chase of material and equipment; the $3,031,743.24 expended tor mainte nance of State highways and State aid highways. To assert that these and other sim ilar items must be considered ns over head charges simply because they do not enter Into contact awards for ac tual road building is manifestly ab surd. With reference to the so-called "percentage contracts," It should be said, in the first place, that this sys tem is used quite generally by corpora tions, especially in railroad work, and the construction of large buildings. It was employed, with varying de grees of success, by the State High way Department in the early days of its existence but has been abandoned. It is not hard to give an appear ance of high mileage cost of road con struction by picking out instances where big engineering difficulties have confronted tho department and by disregarding tho fact that much of the work In the beginning of modern road building In Pennsylvania has been done where the greatest of these problems existed. As an instanco might be cited the twelve miles of road through the Lewistown Narrows, the construction of which Involved the cutting away of the mountain side for long distances.
