It seems to be a genmeral complaint by ladies interested in children’s and infants' wear that merchants don’t seem to pay much attention to that class of merchandise. The above remark to some extent s true, but the Boston store will be classed In a different light this week, as their show window on this class of goods will convince you that such is the case. No one interested in this line can afford to miss seeing window display, and most of all the extremely low prices.

A round-up of th | republican attorneys was made, and the fe ing secmed to be general amorn them that if the convention could be called soon it would be, better to have the appointment made in this way, rather than by the gov- ernor.

Y that net result of an investment Mair of Council Bluffs mad | a few weeks ago, and yes | in good, honest cash was paid. During th | latter part of January Mr. Mair becam | member of the Guaranty Iund Life associa tion, and when accepted was in the vigorous health. He paid his first ment of §2 at the time of joining, and, before the time for the second assessment to be pald came around he sickened and died, and the full value of his two certificates’ was paid to his widow. Although the company reserves the right to delay payment for ninety days, the policies would have been made a month earlier it Mr. Mair's death had occurred two days sooner, as the assess- ment would then have been included in the February business. Mrs. Mair acknowledge in strong terms her obligations to the com- pany for the prompt and full settlement of the claim. On the day previous $2,000 was paid by the Guaranty people to the heirs of Frank L. Sherman, who died in South Omaha February 15 Mr. Sherman had been the holder of two certificates in the Guar- anty Fund assoclation since March, 1840. From that time until the payment of his last assessment the total cost of carrying his two certificates has been just $23.20. These, of course, are exccptional cases, but when taken in connection with the stu- pendous growth of the Guaranty Fund Life and its fellow organization, the United States Masonic Benevolent assoclation, is another indication that the days of high-priced old- style life insurance are over. Since the slight change made in the plan of the Guar- anty Fund at the annual meeting last Janu- ary and which took effect February 15, by Which a flat assessment policy was issued, the net increase of business has been over $2,000,000. And the greater part of this in- crease has occurred in the last thirty days, and the greatest of all in the last week, when more than $250,000 of' new busine: was turned into Secretary Jameson's office. The point that should be most strongly emphasized by these facts is that there are no other life companies that afford guar- anteed protection at such low cost as these two western giants of Council Bluffs, the Guaranty Fund Life and Masonic Benevolent. Bach company issues a policy at a guaran- teed flat rate, ranging from $13.62 per §1,000 annually to $40.44, from ages 21 to 60, which is a shade less than 50 pef cent of the aver- age cost under the old systems for the same insurance. There is no excuse for people of Council Blufts and Omaha sending their money to castern cities to increase the hoard of eastern capital when the best results to be obtained in modern insurance can be pro- cured at home.

City Engineer Rosewater Declares it Would e a Poor Investment “What do I think of the proposed plans for macadamizing the county roads?” said City Engineer Andrew Rosewater in sponse to an inquiry by a reporter 1 have no occasion to change my views ex- pressed in my report to the commissioners a year ago.” “What was that?" imply this. That the first element of a first class road Is an unyielding base, and an unyielding base depends on the character of the soil and good subdrainage.” “Isn't that substantially proposed plans?” “In my opinion, no. Our clay soll yields to the effects of traffic and to the uplieaval of frost. Krost attacks any saturated soil To avoid frost the water should be taken out of the soil; that can only be done by surface and thorough subdrainage.” “But the commissioners have investigated macadam roads in Joplin and Kansas City, Mo.’ ered in the ves, but the conditions are different from ours. The soil of Joplin is gravelly and rocky. 1 am personally familiar with it, for I made the sewerage plans for that ty Kansas City is also on a bed of lime stone rock. Our soil is a retentive clay. A mere eight or ten-inch layer of broken stone will be a failure within & few years. Traffic will sink it unevenly, and wheels on the narrow roads will rut them. The result will be either miscrable undulating rutted roads or a large bill for annual maintenance.” “But don't they have similar roads in parks and boulevards?”’ “Yes, parks and boulevards are regulated. Heavy traffic is excluded from them. Only light " vehicle trafic is allowed there, and even then the boulevards are costly to maintain.’ “What are county road “I ‘have my own peculiar views as to Douglas county. It is only fourtcen miles wide from north to south, and about thirty miles cast and w T would have one great main road, nearly straight as acticable, within certain limits of gradi- That road I would pave on a con- crete base, and subdrain it to protect it against destructive action of frosts. Such a road would be ten miles shorter than the circuitous roads we have. Ten miles saved in distance is @ saving of $150,000 in pav- ing expense, and $150,000 saved in paving can grade 1,600,000 cubic yards. That much grading would give us good grades on a straight road and save ten miles in dis- tance and the cost of ten miles of mainten- ance. “Haven't the county officials surveyed and profiled all the roads so that they can tell how they are comparatively as to distance and grade?” “From all I learn they haven't accurate profiles of any one of the roads they pro- pose to pave beyond a distance of three or four miles.” “Then you don’t seem to think the county board is acting very wisely in their paving projects?” “No, not if the published reports of pro- ceedings arc correct. But, before I forget it, in speaking of the main straight road, let me say that if such a road were built in place of three no part of the county would be more than seven miles from this thoroughfare. This would enable the maca- damizing of cheap, light traffic local roads all along the line.’ “Then your opinion of the economic fea- ture of the three proposed macadam roads is not very favorable.” “No. I think that with that, as our ex- perience with wooden pavements, justifies the conclusion that the expenditure would be a waste.” —_—— - Span of a Bridge Gives Way.
