Few people apprcfne th fact that to-day, at the dawn of the twentirth century, there are stlH parts of tihe old Roman empire where no traveler of modem time has been; that there ore ancient towns which no tourist hB seen, temples and towws that no lov er of classic architecture has deMght cd In, inscriptions In ancient Greek that no savant hais a yet deciphered wlide regions, in fact, full of anti quities for which no luredoker nan been written, and which are mt shown upon the latest maps, says Howard Cnothy Butler In the Century. There are regions within our temperernte sone whwe no modern European foot has trod, eo far as we are able to toll regions whore the cJvillwitlon of Oroece and Rome once flourished, and where fin monument of chwnlc art, rrt of an unfamiliar art that sup planted the classic, waste their beau ties upon the Ignorant eight ot half clvllJied nomad To realize the truth of this one needs only to crops the rengns of mountains that run parallel to the eastern coast of the Mediterranean, ami, avoiding ell caravan routrjs, Jmir ney Independently about the barren country that lies between tbene mountains and the Euphrates. Here Is a territory which, though not whol ly unexplored, Is full of most wonder ful surprises. Here are cities and towns king deserted, no so great or eo Imposing, perhaps, as Palmyra, but far bettor preserved than the city of Zenobla, and giving a much trow pic ture of the life of the ancient Inhabi tants than one can draw from those famous mine. These towns are not burled, Hke the great cities of the Me sopotamia! plains, nor have their sites been built upon in modern times, as those of the classic cities of Greece have been; they stand out against the sky upon h.igh ridges or lie shBlteitvd in sequestered valleys, presenting to the view of the travel er as he approaKlhes tlwun very much the same aspect that they did In the fourth century of our era, when In habltated by the prosperous, culti vated and bappy people, or when de sorted by these inhabitants some 1,300 years ago. Love and Reason. An old time writer holds forth thus entertainingly in love and reason: " 'Marry the lass that has the cow,' w as the advice of an old gentfrman to a laddie who consulted him on the sub ject of a choice between a gJrl with a cow and one that had nothing but a pretty face. 'So far as -beauty Ib concerned, there is not the difference of a cow between any two girls In Christendom.' This Is not my notion, however, though there is something In It Dut marry the gin wno win manage your domestic concerns to ad vantage, who Is pirudent, sensible, economical; got a good disposition; an atcompllfihed maid with it will bo all the better, and beauty, if you find it united with all these, will complete the tout ensemble. "Don't marry for money, merely there Is neither love nor reason Jn that It may buy many fine things, but it won't 'buy happiness, and with out that a man Is a poor creature. Money Is no objection. It may bo, in deed, an Important object, but every other consideration bends to the point of being matched as well as paired, when love and reason Join hands," Absent-Minded. A story U going the rounds of the Missouri press regarding a farmer who Is greatly troubled with absent mlndness. On the way home from town, so the story runs, the thought came to him that he had forgotten something. He took out his notebook, went over every Item, f.eclted it oft, and saw that he had made all th pur chases he had Intended. As he drove on he could not put aside the feeling that there was something missing. He took out his notobook and checked oft every Item again, but still found no mistake. He did this several times, but could not dismiss the idea that he must have forgotten something. When he arrived at home and drove up to the house, his daughter came out to meet him. and, with a look of surprise, asked, "Why, where Is maw?" uaniaa a VBal ajr,.,j I aiaa ma it in ana Ufa A Money Making Opportunity An old MUhllMiMl Chlrairo flrm wants f ount? mn of trooil hulit n, nhr. indui rim. ftmt h)m to fitrnlHtj rfrtni, to tmvel nS ink onlom.

T Is estimated, ufter tlmr oimli !nvestler,tloii. that II ninety per cent, of every I pound cf freight carried by rnll or tvuler linn liccu or will be carried over the public roads of the country. It Is dllilt'ult to impress these facts on the public. The farmer does not enlculnte the wear nnd tear on his linrses and vehicles lu transporting his products from home and Ills pur I'luises to bis 'home. lie dues not charge for Ills time In traveling over tliu roads. He Is generally In no par ticular hurry, and would as soon make two trips to town ns ono trip. How to Impress on hltn and the public gen erally the cost of. bad roads and the profit of good roads Is a problem which Professor I.ntta, ef the l'urdue Uni versity, of Indiana, undertook to solve, and ho seems to hare solved it. He laid down the proposition that perma nent good roads would benefit tbe farmers, hence the communities, In live different ways, In that they would: Kconomlr.e time and force in trans portation between farm and market; Enable the farmer to take advantage of market fluctuations In buying nnd selling; rermlt transportation of fnrm prod ucts and purchased commodities during times of comparative leisure; Keduce the wear and tear on horses, bnrnras and vehicles; Enhance tho market value of real es tate. In order to oscertnln from the farm ers themselves tho facts from which he could reduce answers, nlllrinatlve or negative, to bis propositions, he ad dressed to them the following inter rogatories: First About what proportion of the public highways In your county nro now good gravel ronds? Fecond riense estimate the average Increase (in dollars nnd cents) in the selling price nn acre of land throughout the county as the result ot such gravel ronds. Thlrd-If all the public roads in your county were converted Into improved highways, bow much, in your Judg ment, would It Increase the average selling prlco per acre of laud through' out ydur county? Fourth Wlint would bo n fair estl mate of the cost per nillo of convert Ink our common dirt ronds as they now exist Into good gravel roads, provided, of course, the work were to be per formed economically under some com petent, general supervision, and not hampered by legal restrictions.' Fifth Supposing flint your county were divided into 100 acre farms, and that the average distance of each farm from the market were live miles, what, In rbur Judgment, would be the aver age annual cost (In dollars nnd cents) to each farmer of our improved high ways? In answering tbe fifth question please tnko into account tho reduced loads, in creased time, extra wear and tear, nnd loss in sales fro-.n Innlilllty to deliver m-oducts when the market Is best. . Averages from forty counties in Ms State, from which be was enabled to appro&lumto averages, were ns for lows: first The nvornse estimated In creaBe in the selling pries of land due to existing improved highways Is $0.48 per acre. The estimates from which this . average la made refer in most enscs to lnnds near the Improved roads. but in n few instances they apply to all the lands of the county. The average Increase, therefore, of ?n.4S per acre Is lower than was inletuieu for the lands near tho Improved roads. Second Tho estimated nvernge in crease per aero that would result from luinrovinir nil the public roads is Third The estimated average cost of tonvcrtlns tlio common public roads (nto Improved highways is $1110 per mile. Fourth Tho estimated average nn mini lossv per ono lmnurel acres, from poor ronds Is Ji(!.-'N. Ho then remarks, as a result of these figures: "If tbeso estimates are even nppioxl mntely correct, they furnish n key to tuo satisfactory solution of tho ques tion of highway Improvement from the money standpoint.- On tho basis of tbe lust mentioned estimate, the average annual loss an acre from poor roads Is more than seventy-six cents. In flvo years tho losses would oggrrgnte ?2432 for every section of land, nnd this siim would construct two miles nt a cost of J1210 a mile, which is $i0 a mllo nbovo the estimated averaso cost dven by the farmers themselves. The present road tax, which, under exist ing laws. Is largely thrown away, would, 'under a proper system of road maintenance, doubtless kepp improved highways in perfect repnir." If tho foregoing statments are a near approach to the truth, it follows that tho losses and expenditures which farmers actuully Incur oa account of poor roads would also secure perma nently good roads. Can any sane mnn doubt the wisdom of exchanging tbe losses, delays, accidents and vexation of spirit occasioned by bad roads for the comfort and other advantages of good roads, when tbe cost is tbe a me? From the Investigations and labors of men Intellectually and morally compe tent to make them, tbe extravagant eost of bad roads Is Indisputably proved. From the statements ef prison officials and , prison commissions,' who liavo bad practical experience In work ing convicts on the public roadi, tbe mm L opinion Is hiiarilmokis Hint the fonrirt thus employed Is of more value to tbe public, Is better treated ac3 Interferes lets with free labor than in auy other way.

No great war or political change ever worked nearly so great a revolution for the betterment of the people nnd the quickening of (heir ways of life ns Is now being wrought throughout the Middle West by the trolley sj. terns, that nre spinning their webs In every direction. Within the cles tbe change Is already old, and we have for gotleu how things were when we for merly depended on the mule cars for r.ucli lUtle trnuspnrtation ns wo hud Willi In the city. Such n thing ns pleas ure riding nn the street cars was then unknown, nnd the pleasures of the parks were nvnllnble to those nlono that could afford horses and carriages. Moreover, the quickening of life that came with rapid transit nnd the gen eral broadening out to larger nrens and more comfortable living come to be nn old story In the city. Hut lu the smaller towns, where the trolley is new nnd the closer connection with the lnrger nnd busier centres of life has but recently come, the changes are Just now working, and It Is Inter esting to observe their outward phases, Hide out over nny line through n sec tion where, a couple of years ago, there were old, unpalnted houses and tumble-down fences, and you will sen a sprucing up In the way of new paint and new buildings and general tidiness thnt Is astonishing. And nil the little old towns that were formerly sleeping In the summer sun seem to have been galvanized Into new life. The cross :-onds store has been wiped out, but wherever the town was largo enough to have taken firm root ns a commun ity It hns tnken on new life. The boys can live nt home nnd work In the city. Instead of deserting the village to live In a city boarding house, nnd the "folks" to find a way of making money off their poultry nnd "garden truck" thnt was formerly Impossible. They love to .spend the money In brightening up the old home, trimming the hedges nnd lawns, nnd mnking It look as if somebody lived there. , No human prejudice ever disappeared so quickly as has that of the merchnut of the smaller town, who Imagined that the trolley was going to take away his business.

'FUTURE WORLD'S TRADE FOCUS, The Cenlre nf Gravity la Shifting West. ward to St. TLnnla. There Is a feature of tho Loulsinnns Purchase Exposition which nobody talks about, but which, says a wrltei In the Cosmopolitan, the fnr-slghted business men of St. Louis must appre ciate. The centre of gravity of the commer cial world Is nt present shifting. As s matter of fnct. It has never been per manently stable. The discovery of nn nil-sen route to India, nbout the Cnp of Good Hope, ruined the Italian citlef by opening up a cheaper route to thf Orient. The Sues Canal caused an other shifting of tho course of th world's commerce. To-day supremacy Is slipping away from Great Britain, nnd Is pnsstug Into the hands or the United States nnd Germany. New York Is assuming a cominnndlng rolt in the realm of finance. The Orent Lakes region Is the centre of the rich est Iron ore. copper, timber, coal, lime stone and oil deposits known to the world. And the Great Lake cities nre assuming a new Importance in Indus try. Chicago nnd St. Louis nre ambi tious to become senport towns by way o: n deep waterway to the Gulf through the Drainage Canal, tbe Illi nois Itlver nnd the Mississippi. The Isthmian Canal will bring the Orient nnd South America within an easy radius of their trade. And these coun tries nre tnklng nn unparalleled Inter est in the fair. Chicago focused the eyes of the world on that great metropolis In 18!)3. and made it a conscious force. It may be that the St. Louis Exposition will mark a turning In of the stream ot American industrial life, by which the seaboard influences nnd advantages will be brought Into the very heart of the continent, nnd tho West given a new outlet nnd a lnrger communica tion with the rest of the world. Such n change would In tlmo work n revolu tion In the West. It would at leust modify the commanding position of the East. It would possibly cause a shifting of American civilisation coin cident with the change in the centre of our population. And the Fair will do much to pro mote a Juster estlmato of the West than the East now has. It will sug gest to the West a sense of Its own power, of Its economic. Industrial and social sufficiency; and to America, too, It will be nn object lesson of the posi tion which hns come to us since the Spnnlsh-Amerlcnn War, with our en larged social. Industrial and political relationships and responsibilities to the rest of mankind. The backbone the power nnd strength of Amerlcn lies in the lands that nre washed by the tributaries that feed the great "Father of Wn tors." While the sons of other flags nre serving military apprenticeship, the sons of Oklnhoinn are planting corn, and the sons of Dakota nre seed ing n harvest of wheat. The Missis sippi Valley hns, In n century, grown from a wilderness to the world's great est garden of peace and plenty. It now proffers hope nnd help to the bur dened people of a continent that thought it worthless. It was sold by a monarch to build a greater army. It was bought by n Democrat to make a home for nn Industrial republic. The Fnir will stand before tbe world as the great object of all of this. Why Always Little?" Without any warrant except a curi ous populnr tendency, tho newspapers, almost without exception, refer to the new queen of tbe turf ns "Little Lou Dillon." It would be nil the sain? If the mare that lowered the trotting rec ord at P.eadvllle were sixteen hands high. She would be "little" still, in the public prints. You never read of fa mous little geldings or little stallions any more than you read of big marcs that have become illustrious. This usage is not limited to the turf. Anything heroic or unusunl of n fem Inlno complexion or persuasion Is cer tain to call for tbe familiar diminutive to which reporters nro so fondly at tached. Lift a iln mo ns colossal ns the Statue of Liberty Enlightening tho World collnr a burglar or cowhide n masher, or check a runaway horse, and sbo will como out In tho newspapers as n "plucky Iltilo woman." It seems, obviously, to tho repcrtorlal roinnncer, very wonderful for small creatures and persons to get busy and accomplish things, whereas, ns a mut ter of fact, they are built that way, ns witness the ant, and tho bco and the gadfly. And then, of course, there Is no incentive for big women or even big trotters or pacers or runners of tho fenilnlno persuasion to try and distin guish, themselves as long as they arc bounto be called "little" anyway.

HAND HOLDING IM KANSAS. Mie KHqnetta nf the Vrearfef Call (.at - f Down la armporta. An Important question was np for Alscusfrion last night at the regular meeting of the Amalgamated Hand holders' Union. Ksy Wltherlngton. who holds a high office In the national organisation, was accused by a certain west sldo girl of being "slow," tlist he had called nt her house n few cvonliis ngn, nnd nftcr mnking a few shy at tempts nt holding her hnnd bnd given up, nnd hadn't done a thing but talk the remainder of the evening, and that In her opinion he wasn't a lit or com petent perso'n to hold tho place he did In the 1 landholders' Union. The story reached the ears of With erlugtou's enemies In the union, nnd they nt once brought charges of "In competency" tiefore the "cxaltd stranglcholder," who decided to In vestigate the charges. Wllhcrlngton wns called before this ofllclnj nnd told Ills "side." He snld that he had made a conscientious effort to hold this girl's hnnd, nnd when she refused the sixth lime nnd hnd threatened to cull her fnthfr, he hnd desisted, thnt further effort would be rude and ungentle manly. The west side girl was then called on the witness stand nnd asked to tes tify. Mie snld that Ray hnd tried six times, but thnt none of the girls In her crowd thought of letting a young mnn hold her hand under eight trlnls. She snld she bnd hear of certnin girls thnt did, but thnt she thought no lndy who cared anything for ber reputation would do a thing like that. She ad mitted having threatened to cnll her father, but that the young man ought to have had better sense than to think that she meant to do it. When her testimony wns completed a long dlscusHlon arose ns to how long n young man could persist In trying to bold a young lndy's hnnd without be lug considered rude nnd ungcntleman ly, and how soon a self-respecting young lady could give tip without ac quiring the reputation of being "easy." It ended by the exnited stranglcholder giving his opinion that three attempts were enough, nnd that six was too many, nnd that nny girls with a melt ing point either above or below thesa figures was to be boycotted by the union. The question of how long a young gentlcmnn should know a young lndy before he held her hand was also brought up for discussion. A-fter con sldernble debating nnd deliberating by (he officials It was decided that a young man ought to call on a girl nt least two times and not more than four times be fore he wns entitled to sit In the ham mock with her and bold her baud.

About fi(K) of his choicest goldfish, and some sllverOsh besides, ivi re placed 1n n small scpnr nto pond, thnt they might thrive nnd wax fat.

Yet In a moment they ceased to bo unaccounted for, slnco on the bank a ten-pound snap ping turtle v.t.s sunning himself with nn clr that Bnlii: "Fnto ennnot touch me. I have dined to-dny."
