Hunt Diamonds in Kentucky.
From present indications there is no
longer a doubt as to the existence of
a splendid showing for diamonds in
Kentucky, says the Glasgow (Ky.)
correspondent to the Nashville
"American." For many years those
versed in Buch matters have insisted
that this State offered flattering pros
pects for diamond mining, but capi
talists were timid, and it has taken
a long process of reasoning to get
them Interested. At last the work is
fairly under way, and the results will
be eagerly watched. The plant to do
'the mining is now in process of ln
Yallatlon in Elliott county, and
January 1 an immense diamond wash
ing pan and its accessory machinery,
built from South African mndeia
began an exhaustive teBt of the Ken
tucky Klmbcrlite deposits, which geo
logists say are practically indcntlcal
(with the olivine pyroxine rock hi the
Klmberley fields in South Africa.
Elliott county Is the first and only
rolace in the United States which has
jmade an effort to determine the pos
sibilities of diamond mining In this
(country. Most of the finds so far have
been in alluvial deposits, and one of
(the best was a 24-karat stone of fine
(quality picked up in Virginia some
60 years ago, but the source of those
pas never been found. Geologists be
lieve that the wholesale washing
operations will determine whether
these deposits carry true gems and in
paying qualities.

Spiders That Weave Silk.
Most of us have read of the fairy
princess who wore a spider-web gown,
but we never expected to see that
fabric In reality. Now Signor Gal
llenl, governor of the island of Mada
gascar, off the southeast coast of
Africa, sends word to America that
he bas opened a factory where the
workers are weaving the webs of cer
tain spiders of the island into beau
tiful silken fabrics which are shipped
to Paris and made up Into ladles'
gowns. Thousands of spiders work
day and night in their cages in the
big room in the factory given over to
them, and they industriously spin
millions of yards of their strong silk
threads, which are carefully wound
and taken to the weaving rooms.

FINANCE AND TRADE REVIEW
DUN'S WEEKLY SUMMARY
Movement of Merchandise In Most
Sections Has Resumed Normal
Proportions.
Despite holiday and weather inter
ruptions, the volume of business is
well maintained. In most sections ot
the country the movement of mer
chandise has resumed normal propor
tions, snow blockades being remov
ed, but tardy deliveries still cause
much complaint, especially in regard
to grain.
Retail stocks of wlntor goods were
most satisfactorily depleted during
the period of low temperature, and
tlje new season will open under favor
able auspices. Wholesale and Jobbing
houses report a liberal spring demand,
particularly In dry goods, while at the
interior there Is a vigorous move
ment of agricultural implements nnd
other farm supplies.
A gratifying feature of many reports
Is the greater promptness of merenn
tile collections. Mills and factories
have so much forward business that
new contracts are not taken except at
full figures, and there Is dissatisfaction
because shipments are not more
prompt. Wages have been advanced
in several Important concerns, and
there are no serious labor controver
sies. Iron nnd steel producers nro re
ceiving much new business, contracts
covering deliveries still further Into
the future, ninny lines being sold up
to the last quarter of the year.
It is not possible to discern any evi
dence of reaction In any section of
the industry, although there Is n
seasonable quiet In structural shapes
that has facilitlated a much-needed
Increase in production of billets.
Textile mills continue well employ
ed, with especial pressure for prompt
delivery of cotton goods.

GOOD .
ROADS.I
a... J
A Scattered Movement.
Dr. Chapln is reported to have
said that he believes that with a
highway that will furnish good trav
eling across half the continent the
various States will concentrate good
roads movements into providing
feeders for that hlshway, and that
eventually travel by automobile will
be common between distant points
and that the farmers will be able to
assert their independence of the rail
roads as gasoline nnd electric ve
hicles become cheaper and more
fitted to the demands of the farmers.
"Good roads movements In the va
rious States," he is also reported to
have said, "are scattered in their
effort. There are many struggles to
finish this, that and the other road
stretch in this, that and the other
county. There should be a beginning
at the beginning. If we Est one
stretch of road in each State put in
good shape and laid out so that it
will connect with n stretch laid out
and properly built by the two adjoin
ing States, we will have a highway
established which will be worth while
tapping with feeding roads.
"We came from Chicago through a
country which is fertile and which
needs just such a highway nnd such
eventual feeding roads. It will en
able the farmers to reach the cities
and towns with their produce inde
pendent of the railroads. Once the
National Highway is started there
will be a general concentration of
the good roads movement toward
connecting with it all of the States
it traverses. The road will be really
an avenue over which traffic will
flow constantly. The man or boy
in the country will not be Isolated.
He will have an avenue running be
fore his farmhouse and farm."
In many parts of the country,
where for the last few years crops
have been abundant, the farmers are
buying motor cars. With tho in
crease of Information and the at
tendant increase of scientific and in
tensive farming, the prosperity of
the nation will more and more
strongly be centered in the agricul
tural districts. , Their Increasing
progreeslveness will tend to insure
them against the less productive
years and their needs as well as
their contributions to the national
wealth will make the construction of
such a road system for them a cer
tainty, not in one locality, but
throughout the entire country. Such
a system probably will not be held
long by a private corporation; yet,
though the roads are taken over by
the States or counties through which
they pass, the projectors will doubt
less earn a substantial and abundant
reward for their genius and labor.
Tho effect on national life and
character, of such a road system and
an extensive use of automobiles over
it, would be a consummation most
devoutly to be looked forward to.
The moral freedom that farm life
gives to a man who stands upon
his own ground nnd tills his own
soil, would, when backed up by the
broadening and urbanization that
such a system of roads and automo
biles would give, probably develop a
character that the world would not
want to stand against as much on
account of admiration as of fear.
Nothing is done in a moment that
Is quite worth while doing. Yet,- the
changes that have taken place in the
world during the last twenty years
are most remarkable. The world is
fairly rushing into what the late
Geo. S. Morrison railed "The New
Era." When his book, by that name,
was first published, it seemed llko the
idealistic dream of a great engineer.
Mr. Morrison was, without any doubt,
one of the greatest engineers that
America has had. To-day the world
seems Just on the verge of tho civil
ization that he foresaw a closer
drawing together of nations and men,
and a deeper humanlzatlon of the
race. The Motor Car.
India's Fino Roads.
It is probably not generally known
that India Is remarkable for its pos
session of many most excellent roads,
some of them of great length, llko
that which runs from Bombay to
Delhi, a distance of 900 miles. It is
described as "a perfect highway."
Another fine road, 1500 miles in
length, extends from Calcutta to
Peshawur, at the frontier of Afghan
istan. Thc39 roads are kept in per
fect repair, and were built originally
for military purposes before the ad
vent of railroads. Many of the native
princes give particular care to their
roads. Ot course the nature of the
eountry plays a part in the existence
of the roads, and now they serve as
a stimulus to the use of automobiles,
which are very popular in India.
Youth's Companion.
The Gootl P.oads Movement.
The road question is as broad as
the State and affects not only the
benefits derived from free rural de
livery of mail, but every line of com
merce and communication. Galves
ton Dally News.
The farmer was slow to learn the
benefits to him personally ot good
roads, but the lessened wear and tear
upon horses and vehicles owlns to
general betterment of highways has
proved to him that county money ex
pended on road improvements is a
canital investment. The extension of
free rural delivery, one of his real
home comforts, has been more easily
possible owing to better roads being
provided everywhere. Ho should

The whole business web knits ever

Of Interest to Women.
Kvery woman naturally should be
healthy and strong, but a great many
women, unfortunately, are not, owing to
the unnatural condition of the lives we
lead. Headache, backache and a general
tired condition are prevalent amongst the
women of to-day, and to relieve thee con
ditions women rush to the druggists for a
bottle of some preparation supposed to be
particularly for tnem, and containing
nobody knows what. If they would just
get a box of Brandrcth'a Pills, and take
them regularly every night for a time, all
their trouble would disappear, as these
pills regulate the orgnns of the feminine
system. The same dose has Ihe same
effect, no matter how long they are used.
lirondrcth's Pills have been in use for
over a century and are sold in every drag
