RATED OXEN ABOVE HORSESGood a>*aso« Why the tarty Settlers

Preferred the- Slewer but SaferMethod ef

The first horses Imported into theUnited States were brought to "NewEngland In 1C28. One horse and sevenmares survived the voyage. Horsqfwere not highly esteemed nor muchneeded In America at that time norfor a hundred years afterward. Therewere no race course* nor trottingparks and the roads generally were sopoor that speed was not desirable hadIt been possible with safety. Oxenwere fouoilto be much better for allfarm work.

Host of the land was rough, rodryand full of titumpv, so that oxen, be-ing strung, patient and slow, CMdamuch the better team for agricultur-al purposes and luiuherlng (ban didhorses, and they were cheaper kept,needing hut HtTfc grain even whan atbard work aijd none at all when "tnpasture. Tliey rwjulrrd uo expensive

-hanteih Uk« borne*, only cheap yOMand chttln. ami were quickly yoked.

The neptirate skirt h a s extended WttW«-ld <if iirti'fulnesm nnd entt-ri'd tin-rnnkn of npparel for morning, noonMid nlRht. It appears this seawon !i>ftuch Mtuff as nets and lace, trimmedwith crystui heads or jet and wlfh•••quins, or one runs across It In bril-liant velvi-tK, beautifully draped, Inmodels nienut to glow or twinkle underthe lights of evening.

To be worn at the other end o^ theday and on the street there are veryhandsome skirts of plain of atrfpe,d,or cro-m-barred woolen materials. 'Pheyare In qutm colors, ns taupe,.brown,dark hlu*., tilm-k nnu white combina-tions. AmoiiK the handsomest thereare miMleU mnde of materials havingbroad diagonal Htrlpes. laid IQ flat boxplnltn. Each plait breaks the stripeand In stttchexl down or pressed Infrom the walac line downward.

Besides these varieties there l a t h e

ttklrt for afternoon wear with HIt n|!|H'urh In |tlnln velvet,

al the hips; In skirts mndr ofthree or more tiers of scant Hounees,having hanging, looped l|tmds aboutthem, or sklrta with these hnmla overtunics of another material, like themodel nhown In the picture. In thinskirt the tnnle is of Hatln and thelooped band.s of wool like the underskirt. They are suspended under ugirdle of the satin and are*iined withIt. The pointed ends of these hnndn,turned back and fastened down with acovered button, give the effect of asmalt pocket nt each side.

T\ntrncl as scronri-clnss ntnttcr March 1-1, 1!U9, at ttar TostOdicc at Wooflnridge, N. J., unrW the Art of March 3, 1871).

GOVERNMENT AND TRANSPORTATIONWoocUiridge is sadly hit at present for lack of adequate freight

transportation. With the government control freight shipments hereas -well as nil over the country slow up almost invariably, and leasthan a carload of freight now moves in and out of Wuodbridgc aboutonce a week. This threw a great deal of the former freight trafficovrr to the express companies. *

Recently, taking advantage of the monopoly gained by theconsolidation of the express companies into the American RailwayExpress Company under government supervision, when the agencywas given up by Maxwell Logan on account of his grpwing jobprinting business and having a bouncing, newspaper on his hand*the express office at Woodbridge was discontinued and a makeshiftdelivery and pick-up established from itS( Perth Amboy offire,against vigorous protests from the factories of the town. Thisleaves Woodbridge further in the hole.

The express. company, banking on its government petting,attempted to economize more by discontinuing deliveries to EdgarsHill and Spar Spring, thus cutting off four factories just Devourwas. not authorised in the classification without heeding the needsand wants of the people. The former agent saved these sectionsbecause they contained factories important to the welfare of Wood:bridge, On account of the precedent established by the formeragent the company found it hard to ignore these sections, and it iabelieved Wave since restored service,v Providently at this time a local expressman, known as theYorke Fxpre*H, established a daily motor express service betweenPerth Amboy, Woodbridge* Carteret, Rahway, Elizabeth and New-ark with a transfer at Newark for New York. The* rates are muchlower than that of the government company, and goods are pickedtip and delivered the same day. Because of the acquaintance of theformer express agent. Maxwell Logdti, with the transportation needsof Woodbridge, this office has been made a. station for this newexpress. Ordersr to pick up and deliver goods over its route for anyday may be telephoned in by calling 222-W before 9 A. M. ofthat day.

Since the government company no longer furnishes adequatefervic« we believe thi» private motor express will meet with greatfavor.

KEEPING OUR BALANCEIt is you, the reader, who huys this paper because it is made

for you to read that causes the advertiser to buy space that he may.through the medium of its columns, reach you, the people that this,paper reaches.

It is the reading matter that we carry, and not the advertising.that makes this paper a valuable advertising medium.

If we should stop carrying reading matter, stop making a news-paper for me reader, or if we should stop delivering full readingmatter value to you who are paying for this paper, it would loseits advertising value and would not long enjoy its present measureof prosperity. You, the reader, will not buy and the advertiserlenows you will not buy—merely an advertising dodger. *

You will not look at and the advertiser know* you will notlook at—merely an advertising doger.

So if we should quit making a newspaper for you, the reader,if we should encroach upon the reading matter for which you arepaying by filling the space with advertising for which you are notpaying, and for which the advertiser knows you are not paying, wewould kill the paper with both the reader and the advertiser.

The successful, publication of any kind, the big city newspapersor the better grade of magazines, never encroach upon the spacesold to readers, the amount of reading matter is always /rjaintained•and is as a rule increased with,the increases in volume of advertising.

The great majority of publishers of daily and weekly news-papers are today dealing fairly with their readers, and are givingthem full value in reading matter for the subscription prices theyare paying. It is largely because the publishers of the country dailyand weekly newspapers are doing this that these publications haveachieved a better standing as an advertising medium. But thereare some publishers who fail to recognize the rights of the readers,who look upon their publications as advertising dodgers in which the

< readers lutvt; no rights. The publishers are injuring themselves,and if they will not learn that they must be honest with their readers,if they art* ti> l>t- successful, their papers will soon tome to theinevitable reputation of "all advi»."

This paper believes in keeping a balance of at least one-half. reading matter.

MAKING THE BIQHT SIGN. Too IIIto Work

Scores of Women

Boy 8c«uts Have Signs With TheirFingers. Here Is One UndergoingTest

SCOUTS HELP TO FIND JOB*

Another task which Boy Scouts wera-recently naked by the government toattempt was the distribution of postersrelating to the problem of getting J«b8for soldier*.

The war department provided na-tional headquarters with a list of fortyor more cities In which the situationwas so serious as to require specialpropaganda effort. In every one ofthese cities there was a first-classftcout council and through the scoutexecutive of these local organizationsthe work wn« carried out In eachcommunity with dispatch and efficiency.

Again Boy Scouts were proud andeager to lend a hand. Evidentlythere Is still plenty of war work to bedone, even though the treaty has beenalgned and peace declared. This laaS It should he. Scouting wlnhes tohelp Uncle Hani put thruugti some ofhis'numerous big tasks which concettihis "boys."

SCOUTING AND CIGARETTES.

John M. Phillips, member of the na-tional scout council nnd a scout com-missioner for Allegheny county, Penn-sylvania, has this to suy regarding cig-arette smoking:

"From personal observation I findthat we have very little smokingamong our Allegheny county stouts,and while we have not prohibited Itwe Impress noon the scout the factthat to be *phyrically strong, mentnllyawake and morally straight,' he can-not abuse his body by using tobaccoIn any form. I have stopped a lot ofscouts from smoking cigarettes bytelling them thut If I wanted to stunta pup I would feed him tdbaeco juice."

Mr. Phillips ts getting splendid re-from hlB "atuntud pup."

WHAT THE SCOUTS DO.

The poy Kcouts in South Smi KVun-cteeo have planted a lurge Utit.- imlmIn the civic center In honor of Theo-dora Roosevelt.

Three Woy Scouts who wi-ru <>u ahike from New York to Mmipac ing through the Adirondack Moun-tains between Chestertou wnl Wl™-bellitown, N, Y,, came across at a r kicHiKmt. In which rn« ucciipof tin- Hkie-car we^e uncousciojis.boys render^ flrst uId.and teleitintp Klt«ap#tMoWff for toWlcal aid.

in homes, stores, offices and factories are not fit to be at work.They toil on day after day and year after year sufferingwith distressing weaknesses and derangements, hoping againsthope that they will soon feel beH er, but how can they hopeto do good work or escape permanent invalidism?Such women are in danger of derangement of women's functions. Theyowe it to themselves to try that good old fashioned root and herb remedyLydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, which for more than fortyyears h§s been restoring American Women to health and strength.

Hereis a Notable ExampleJoplin, Missouri,—"I took Lydia E.Pinkham's Vegetable Compound totee if it really would do as it was ad-vertised and it sure did, and more. Iwas weak and could not do muchwork, had bearing down pains and hadto go to bed. I learned about the .Vegetable Compound from my motherand my husband told me to get it.After taking one bottle I was able tobe on my feet most of the time anddo my work again. I hav« a babyeleven months old and I have done allmy own work, even the washing andironing since she was three weeks old.I certainly recommend yoafr great medi-cine Xo everyone who complains offemale trouble and 1 am more than iwilling for you to use my testimonial."

— Mrs. TIMOTHY GRANEY.426 Connor Ave., Joplin, Mo.

And AnotherChicago, Illinois.—" I suffered for fouryears with pains in my sides, hips andlegs and a terrible backache, t couldnot do any work at all. 1 was treatedby many physicians but they did nothelp me. 1 read in one of your bookswhere other women have been helpedby LyeJjB EL Pinkhara's Vegetable*Compound, so I tried it and it helpedme very much so that now I can doeverything in the house. I have toldmy friends about Vegetable Compoundand you have my permission to use thisletter."— Mrs. I. OVENSTEIN, 902S. Marshfield Avenue, Chicago, lit.
