Laws are like cobwebs; the small flies are caught; the great ones break through. Greek Proverb. Our Easter number will be worth more than casual notice. It will abound with the poetry, romance and spiritual life of tho season. VIOLET TO SUPPLANT DAISY The sub-committeo of the Legisla tive Committee on Education at Har rlsburg to which was referred the resolution naming tho daisy as the official state flower of the Common wealth seems to have recommended It negatively, says the Scranton Times in an editorial Friday. Two of the three sub-committee-men report in favor of the substitu tion of tho violet for the daisy and tho battle of the flowers is to be fought in full committee. As to their relative popularity in bouquet form the violet is away ahead. Certain varieties of each are highly prized. On the farm, however, the daisy is regarded as a troublesome and use less weed, exhausting the soil and not eaten by any stock. So much for the history and habits and significance of each. But whore is there any special symbolism in either as purely Pennsylvania? Both are world girdling flowers as typical of any place as the Keystone State. And are tho legislators priding themselves on their innocence or their modesty? Tho best evidence that neither the daisy, the violet, nor any other flow er, should be officially promulgated as tho State flower of Pennsylvania Is that tho flower pickers themselves are In controversy over It. Besides the State seems to have about as much need for a State flower as the country had for the new nickel." IMPORTANT VINEGAR NEWS FOR FARMERS. Owing to misstatements made by many traveling salesmen to that cider vinegar made on the farm does not comply with tho Pennsylvania Vinegar law, Dairy and Food Com missioner Foust announces that cider vinegar made from the pure apple juico and containing no added wa ter, drugs or acids, will comply with the law. That is, provided each bar rel or cask is properly branded. This branding can be dono with a stencil or by taking cards and labeling each card: "Pure Cider Vinegar," giving tho producer's name, together with his postofllce address and attaching said card to each barrel or cask. If made and sold in the way indicated above, true cider vinegar can be handled by tho farmer and merchant without fc'ar of any Interference un dor our vinegar law. The Legislature of 1901 so amend ed the Pennsylvania Vinegar Law as to permit tho farmer to uso up his surplus of apples by converting It in to cider vinegar. Therefore, tho Commissioner feels that tho present statement is necessary so as to per mit tho consuming public, who wishes to secure good old-fashioned, farm-made cider vinegar, to obtain tho samo, and at tho samo time to enlighten tho farmer and merchant to tho effect that they can, with safety, dispose of cider vinegar made and labeled in tho way indicated above. Our present Vinegar Law sets up no standards as to acidity and solids, requiring only that cider vine gar shall be made from puro apple Juice. HARRISBURG LETTER Flood of Bills to Cease. The Houso of Renresentatlves ad journed Thursday until Monday af ter tho most strenuous week of tho session, five sessions, aggregating al most thirty hours, having been hold, together with raoro committee meet ings than at any tlmo this year. Tho approach of tho limit of tho period in winch bills may be introduced caused a rush of legislation and by Monday night, when the time exnlres. It Is believed tho total of 1,523 In tho session of 1911 will bo passed. Al most 1,500 are now In hand. Tho House passed finally the fol- lowing bills: Establishing fees for sheriffs in counties having less than 150,000 population; regulating filing tho Citizen Publishing Company. W. W. WOOD of contracts and agreements in offi ces of recorders; making a. closed season for quail for five years from November 1 next; making it a misde meanor to make false statements to obtain money on credit; changing seasons for various kinds of game; Senate bill placing the turtle dove, kildeer and blackbird on the protect ed list; Senate bill regulating man ner in which judges may be called into district to preside In case of Ill ness or absence of a judge; making holders of mine foremen's certifi cates eligible for anthracite" mine in spectorships; prohibiting making of promises by candidates for nomina tion for office. Mr. Stein, Allegheny, presented tho administration "blue sky" bill. A joint resolution for a commis sion of Ave to investigate tho opera tion of civil service laws in first class cities and to suggest laws to the next General Assembly was presented by Mr. Dunn, Philadelphia. Representative E. E. Jones, of Sus quehanna, has presented a bill which, if enacted, will do much for good roads in townships. It provides for the creation of a bureau of township roads in the state highways depart ment. In explaining the bill Mr. Jones said: "This bill has been prepared by myself and Mr. Gibson, of Lycoming, after a careful study of tho road leg islation of several states, but partic ularly of New York state, where this system has resulted in a marvelous development and improvement of the townships on earth roads. The bill has also been submitted to Mr. Creasy and other leaders of the state grange and has their endorsement. "The vital point in the bill is state aid to the townships and this feature is not new, but was the "purpose of the first Jones dirt road act. The actual money, however, has not been fully appropriated and the state has broken faith with the townships. At present there is due the various townships of the state over $3,000, 000. Wanted State Supervision. "The objection, heretofore, on the part of Governor Tener and other state officials has been that the state did not have proper supervision of tho money given by tho common wealth. This now act romoves tho objection by establishing In tho state highway department a bureau of township roads, with a deputy high way commissioner at its head, and this bureau will devote its whole at tention to tho more than 80,000 miles of township roads in tho state. Road building has become a science in recent years, and the local town ship supervisors should have and want help and instructions in such matters by thoso competent to do so, "By the provisions of this act the supervisors in each county will meet and choose a county superintendent of roads in exactly tho samo manner as school directors choose thoir county superintendents of schools. This superintendent of roads will be representative of the state highway department and direct and adviso the township supervisors in their road work. This has been tho weak point in the past. Tho township supervisor has often been inefficient and it is hoped under this new plan to so aid him in his work as to obtain moro intelligent effort and more perman ent results. System is Needed. " The state aids tho township to tho extent of GO per cent., this feat ure being the samo as heretofore. "The systom is needed in Pennsyl vania to round out her big policy. While tho state under tho special bill takes over and constructs those 8, 800 miles of main highways, she also should aid the townships in tho main tenance of tho remaining 80,000 miles of roads, which the plain peo ple everywhere make daily use of. Tho automobilo is everywhere aud nearly ruins theso earth roads many times. Tho state collects the license money for theso automobiles and should roturn a portion of it to the townships for roads. Real estate in Pennsylvania is burdened by an av orago tax of 1C mills, whilo corporate proporty is taxed only on tho averago four mills. "Some relief must como to tho land owner, and this help to tho towns by the state will accomplish this on exactly tho saino systom as tho schools havo been helped for years past. Our bill, If it can become fully operative by a full cash appro priation, will do moro for tho public roads of Pennsylvania than any oth er legislation up to this time." Congressman Alney Conveyed Greet ings From Ambassador. Ono need not go far to ascertain tho reasons for tho high regard which tho American people have for Ambassador Bryco, nor to under stand tho cause ot his influence un der which tho harmonlouB relations between tho United States and Great Britain havo been steadily maintain ed. He is thoughtful in small as in large affairs. A little incident gives an Insight: Ambassador Bryco and Congress man W. D. B. Alney were traveling together last week from Washington to New York, tho former on his way to Ottawa, and the latter to speak on the subject of World Peace. Mr. Bryco remarked, "Mr. Ainey, I shall bo pleased to have you glvo my greet ings to your audience tonight and say to them that not alono nor perhaps chiefly because of tho ties of blood, but by a similarity of tradition, his tory and purpose aro the two great Anglo Saxon races bound together in amity of thought nnd desire. As such they have a high duty and I beliovo an appreciated privilege to ward each other, In their own best Interest, and in the maintenance of their great Influence in tho cause of World Peace." When Mr. Ainey, in the course of his address to a large meeting at Somervllle, N. J., that evening con veyed the greetings of Ambassador Bryce, it met with an enthusiastic response. CITIZEN CONGRATULATED ON SUNDAY ARTICLE. Honesdale, Pa., March 14, 1013. Editor of The Citizen: It is with pleasure and with profit I have read your reporter's account of his visit to Wilkes-Barre, his im pressions of Billy Sunday and his graphic description of the Tabernacle and what he heard there. You are to be congratulated for your enter prise In giving your readers so good an opportunity to be brought in touch with a thing that is interesting so many of us, also in your selection of Mr. Woodward to do it. 'It makes me ' sick " to hear the knockers of this movement, but it's really funny, if you just compare them and their works with the man they attempt to discredit, Billy Sun day, and his work, for those I've met are so-called Christians. I can- not understand their position, if they have any honesty in their claim to Christianity, why should they object to work in any form, that reaches the masses, that so plainly teaches men and women the error of their ways, bringing home tho saving power of Jesus Christ and making converts by thousands? They can't gainsay this, the fact stands. Tho Sunday movement has stood the test of years, by his works you may know him. All this being true, why the detractors? At present they are 50 miles from any possible collection. 'I've heard Billy Sunday. His Gos pel is the Gospel of Christ told in a way that his hearers, learned or ig- norant, old or young, can't help but understand; simple, yet powerful, as it might have como from our Savior and his fishermen followers. SUNDAY MOVEMENT ADMIRER. DEEP SEA DIVING. "Recovering Treasure From the Heretofore Impossible Depths" is now possible. The inventor, W. D Slsson, Is a nephew of A. E. Sisson, also of Mrs. L. A. Lybolt, of Falls dale. His father, F. P. Sisson, was well known in Wayne county during his younger years. Mr. W. D. Sisson is expected hero some time next month. In a recent letter to rela tives he writes that it is receiving great encouragement in the far west and many capitalists aro taking stock In it. Tho fact that tho United States Hydrographic Bureau has records of literally thousands of valuable wrecks lying in from 100 to GOO feet of water is amplo evidence of the in efficiency of diving methods of today. The method used today is familiar to most people. It has been with us so long that we have grown to think it the only way. It consists of a diver with a rubber diving suit, cop per helmet and heavy lead soled shoes. Tho man who can work in one of these suits deeper than 100 feet is a physical wonder for endur ance. A Portland boy, named Bald in, is said to hold the deep diving rec ord. Ho made a divo 19C feet in Pug- ot Sound and stayed under for sever al minutes. Ho wont down again and was hauled up dead. The terrific water pressure had crushed his hel met. Two English naval officers are said to havo descended 210 feet, but did not do any work at this depth. Tho chief difficulties encountered by the diver are (1) withstanding the terrific water pressure, (2) an air supply, and (3) working effec tively, hampered by diving appara tus. It has been loft for a mechan ical engineer, William David Sisson, to solve tho ship salvago problem. He has invented tho deep sea ma chine which bears his name. In de signing this machine, Mr. Sisson has seized on a few basic principles known to ovoryono, but not thought of in connection with diving. To these ho has added mechanical feat ures as only a mechanic and engineer can do. Tho bell proper consists' of a hol low sphere eight feet in diameter. A sphero will stand unlimited water pressure, simply becauso tho pressuro is oven at all points it works against Itself, as it were. A little thought and this proves itself. How ever, it is backed by truth and can bo proven out for yourself by test ing it. A pump forces the stalo air out and tho fresh air comes In nat urally from the air lino above. This makes absolutely normal atmos pheric conditions. Tho bell Is equip ped with a strong motor which op orates a drill, a screw propellor and two of the heavy magnet beams. Thus you see that roughly described, tho Sisson Deep Sea Boll Is n steel sphere oight feet in diameter, equip ped so that two men can work ef fectively insldo It. MADE, LOVE IN CHURCH. Tho Mlddletown Press says: A High school student, a member of tho class '13, became so enamored of a girl who sat In tho samo pew In a prominent church in this city, a few nights ago, that his actions attracted tho attention of church of ficers. When tho soft youth seemed Intent on kissing the girl, ono of tho officers went to tho pew, told the student to hike over to tho opposite aisle and any future lovemaklng would result In his being taken out of tho edifice. WILSON AVOIDS FRILLS OF OFFIG Warms Up to Job es Seat Becomes Firm. PEST OF WARNING NOW OVER Endless Advice and Attempts by Oth ers to "Put Something Over" Before President Took Job- Havo Made Him Watchful He Declines All Obliga tions Offered Him In Showers. By ARTHUR W. DUNN. Wiishington, March 17. Special. President Wilson is warming up a bit as he gets moro firmly seated In the presidential chair. During tho time ho was waiting for tho office many persons visited him nt his homo in New Jersey, and many told him things about Washington, about the crowd who run things or had been running things, about the manner In which tho common people were treated, about tho many mistakes made by his pred ecessors, and, in fact, ho was given so much general warning that It is just possible tho president elect was a little wary of the environment he was nbout to enter. At the same time ho had to encoun ter tho everlasting throng who want something. He had to see nnd listen to the fellow who wanted to "put something over." Ho had to listen to thoso who had accumulated sixteen years of grievances. Consequently he was naturally watchful, somewhat dis trustful and very careful in his first movements, both socially and politi cally. Without Frills. Tho president wants his administra tion to be without frills. He wants to be under no obligations to any one for anything, social or otherwise. Ho wants none of tho little courtesies and favors which are showered upon him because he is president. In theso mat ters lie wants to be treated just as he would havo been a few years ago when lie was Professor Wilson of Princeton. Protection of Birds. Despite tho vigorous protest of Con gressman Mondell of Wyoming, there was enacted in tho agricultural appro priation bill the most stringent law for the protection of migratory birds that the friends of game ever expect ed. Mondell nsscrted that It was un constitutional; that it Invaded tho po lice powers of tho states; that a child trapping a bird might bo hauled up and Imprisoned by a federal court. ,In fact, ho pointed out any number of .iniquities which would follow in the train of such legislation. And then they unceremoniously pushed tho steam roller over him and accepted the nmondniont which had been inserted in tho senate. Tho cred it for the legislation is largely due to Senator McLean of Connecticut, who has devoted much tlmo In the two years ho has been In tho senate to this legislation. Long Rido For Troops. In the office of General Wother- spoon, assistant chief of staff, is a map showing the location of the troops of tho United States. They are noted by pins with largo heads. At Galveston there is quite a bunch of these pins. "Those pins represent 10, 000 men on paper," said tho general. "And some of the men came quite long distances. A battalion of one regiment wns taken from up hero in Idaho and another from up hero in Michigan. They traveled a longer dls tanco.than from St. Petersburg to Par- Is or from London to Ronio In order to bo nssombled in n regiment." The army officers aro contending for a sys tem which will mean more concentra tion of troops, nnd many members of congress sustain that position as be lug In the Interest of economy and efficiency In the drilling of men and training of oilicors. Storm Signals Unheeded. In tho congress just closed more men hung out storm signals about tho big expenditures than ever before, but very few persons paid any attention to them. Among those who talked economy was Martin Dies of Texas. He Is always interesting aud made a very good speech. In the course of It he said. "If you do not do something to pare these appropriation bills we will bo known as tho party which niado moro promises and more appropriations than any party which over had a chance at tho federal government. "I do not want to go Into tho road making business. If we should evei get a bill known as tho public roads bill tho pension bill, tho public build ing bill and tho river aud harbor bill would be but as one hog Jowl compar ed to tho barrel of pork which wo would then have." Sleep In Danville. "I am going homo to Danville for n month nnd loaf and sleep," was the remark which Undo Joo Cannon mndo to his friends who called to bid him goodby. "After that I don't know Just what I will do, but I will find enough to do to keep mo Interested," Free Seeds Win. Out of the ruck of tho closing days of the session It was found that the houso had retained tho frco seeds pro Tlslon in the agricultural appropriation bill. Many men have fought tho free seed proposition, none harder than Senntor Kenyon, from tho agricultural state of Iowa, but they aro defeated, WO.LN MAGAZINE SOLICITOR A FAKE.

One of our subscribers has tho following plan, and it seems worth passing along to our readers: This man noticed that he was al ways able to pay his bills. So ho de cided that he owed himself five thou sand dollars and that he would pay It In weekly installments of five dollars a week. He banked the installments to his credit. Another reader makes it a rulo to save every penny that finds its way Into his purse. Pennies accumulate rapidly. One of these days, tho per son who saves the pennies will havo thousands of dollars and a home of his own, secure from all outside in fluences where the fires glow un chilled by fear of poverty. Try the plan for a week and see if you don't have several dollars ahead. The man who saves the pennies will In time bo boss. And the man whom he will boss will be the man who did not see that each penny has a siring leading to a fortune and that when enough strings have been gathered, the fortune is easy to reach. MILK FOR BREAKFAST. First Transportation by Railroad From Dairy Fnrm to City. The amount of milk brought into the city each day is approximately enough for ono day's consumption. Within tho past fow years there has been a remarkable development of tho dairying business, and its man ner of handling has been revolution ized, largely by the efforts put forth by tho dairymen in bringing milk up to tho sanitary requirements of the Health Department. These condi tions havo made it necessary for the railroads to give tho milk service their closest attention and to place it under efficient management. "When a contractor named Thad deus Selllck first proposed in 1841 that tho Orange county farmers ship milk into New York, tho farmers laughed at the idea," writes J. B. Dugan in tho B. & O. Employees' Magazine. "But he was later appoint ed agent at Chester, on what is now the Erie road. He finally succeeded in getting the scoffers to try tho ex periment. "A milk depot was opened In 'New York and milk wns shipped In tho crude churns of that day, Instead of cans, tho freight being charged for by weight. Tho milk reached tho city in good shape, as tho weather was then cool, and immediately created a demand which exceeded the supply. "Tho next shipment was larger and other farmers, realizing that there was moro profit in selling milk in this way than in making butter at fifteen cents a pound, began sending their milk to Mr. Selllck, the shipments increasing. "Soon the hot weather caused tho milk to sour, giving the farmers and tho railroads much troublo, until it was discovered that if it was proporly cooled after milking It would go through sweet. At this period it was not tho custom to operate rains on Sundays. Meetings were held and prayerful protest made against tho Innovation, communities being dis- B1 on Court Streets Property known as the McKenna House, - Seventh street lot, 30x82 feet, Grittin HOUSe, Seventh Street, lot 30x82 feet, - .

"The necessity for Its transporta tion on Sunday was, however, finally recognized. The lives ot infants of ten depend upon its arrival, and its prompt delivery Is imposed upon tho railroad as a humanitarian duty. Tho traffic has grown until cars aro load-' ed to capacity. Tho modern meth ods by which the shipments aro transported bear little rescmblanco to those of early days." New York Sun. Honesdale supplies New York with a carload of milk dally.

TROUT FISHING WILL BE BETTER THAN EVER THIS YEAH Trout fishing in Pennsylvania will bo better during the coming season than for many years Is the opinion of State Fish Commissioner Buller. The prediction Is based on a chango of policy adopted by the department in stocking the Btreams. Under the system followed for a long time, tho streams were stocked with trout so small that they were unable to pro tect themsolves from tho ravages of larger fish that feed on the little varieties. 'Last year the department began Sending out well developed fish for stock purpbse, and reports aro that the usual destruction has not taken place, and that trout of a size that may legally be taken with hook and lino aro now very plentiful In many streams thus stocked. The trout fishing season will open April 15 and close July 31. All fish under six inches must be put back, and no one is permitted to catch more than forty In one day. The local fly-casters are closely watching tho calendar and anxiously awaiting tho opening day. Ask John nie Brady about it. He knows. CASTOR I A For Infanta and Children. The Kind You Have Always Bought Bears tho Signature ot .MUST TELL WATER ROUTES. Washington. In a general order to all railroads the interstate com merce commission required them to disclose under oath before April 15 what connection each may havo in the transportation of freight or pas sengers by water.
