Narrow ROadwRys.

The great expense of Macadamizing
or Telfordizing puts these systems out
Of the reach of small communities.
Wherever the original expense can be
borne, the subsequent cost of mainte-
nance will be so slight, and the result
generally will be so satisfactory as to
make railways a good investment. The
circumstances under which these costly
forms of construction may be adopted
will be greatly extended if we can
overcome the prevalent American pre-
JUDGE in favor of Wide roads. Against
wide streets there is a. a rule no objec-
ton though exceptional narrow and
well shaded lanes have q rural charm
that will always commend them to per-
sons of taste. A wide street, that is,
broad spaces between fences, by no
means implies n broad roadway. All
we need in the principal thorough
fare of a busy village is such n
width as will allow of the easy
passing of vehicles in the middle
of the road, and the standing of
one vehicle at rest at each side. This
will be accomplished even in the bust.
ness street of a village by a width Of
roadway of thirty feet. Uuder most
other circumstances twenty feet of
roadway will be ample, This will al
low of the moving Of three vehicles
side by side and will give a leeway of
six feet between two vehicles passing
each other. " " In the island of
Jersey, there are many excellent roads
only sixfeet wide. These are provided
with frequent little bays or turn-outs
to allow teams to pass each other. AL
though such extremely narrow roads
are not to be recommended, the differ
ence in comfort and economy of team
power between these and the average
American dirt road is enormously in
their favor. The widest roads in Jersey,
leading from a busy town of thirty
thousand inhabitants into q thickly
settled farming region, where business
and pleasure travel is very active, and
where excursion cars carrying thirty OF
forty persons are constantly passing,
are only twenty -four feet wide; often
only of this width between the hedge
rows, the road itself being an excellent
foot-path for it's whole width. Now
where else in the world ia the rural
charm more perfectly developed than
in Jersey, and no element of its great
beauty ia 81 conspicuous and 30 con.
stantly satisfactory rs it's narrow and
empowered lanes and roadways.

The Do0rIs "a Ino system

of exit, the bowels, the kidneys and the pores,
or, in default thereof, poison and disorder tho
fluids of the system. In order to effect the
complete expulsion OF this dangerous refuse,
the organs through which it passes of must be
active and uno6structed. Fortunately there
is a certain means Of rendering them 30 when
they arc not. Hostetter's Stomach Bittera
stimulate the action Of the excretory organs,
and by diffusing a genial warmth through the
circulation, encourage moderate Precipitation.
BY this triple effect the exodus Of the focal

the system freed from peril it would otherwise
incur. The action Of the bowels which follows
the use Of this beneficent Alternative is easy and
unaccompanied by gripping, and its stimulative
effect upon the urinary organs very conducive
to their local health. ~

HUMOROUS

The GRAsDPA.-The grandpa " an
individual aged somewhere between
fifty and one hundred years, and IL a
common occurrence in most we'll regu-
lated familys.
Next to a healthy mother-in-law, they
have more bizness on hand than emmy
other party In the household.
They are the standard authority on
all leading topicks, and what they don't
know about things that happened sixty
five years ago, or that will happen for
the next three years TO come, IL a dam
age for everybody to kno.
Grandpas are not entirely useless
they are handy to hold babies, and feed
pigs, and are very smart at mendlng a
broken broom handle or putting up the
~clothes-line on washing days.
| hav seen grandpas that churn good,
but | konslder 1t a mighty mean trick
to set an old man over eighty years to
churning butter.
| am a grandpa miself, but | won't
churn for no such concern, not If |
understand miself.
l am willing to rock the baby while
wimmen folks are billing soap; | am
reddy to cut rags to work into rag
carpets; they kan keep me hunting
hens eggs, or picking green k%urrents;
or, l will even dip HANDLES or kore
apples for sass, but | won't churn.
| hav examined myselfon the subject,
and will bet a jackknife that Josh Bill
lings won't churn.
Grandpas are poor help at bringing
up children; they are full of precept
and katekism, but the young ones all
seem to understand that grandpa minds
them a heap more than they mind
grandpa.-JoSh Billings.
The real value of a grandpa is found
in the following:
II Grandpa is rich, Heaven is a far better world
than this
II Grandpa is poor, his absence we never
would miss.

REMOVAL OF TAN FROM THE FACE
Any lady can make her own perfumery
by filling a perfumery bottle nearly full
of alcohol, and dropping in a few drops
of the oil of bergamot, lavender, otto
of roses, or any kind to suit. Tan can
be removed from the face by dissolving
magnesia in soft water; beat it to a
thick mass; spread on the face, and let
it remain a minute or two. Then wash
off with CASTLE soap suds, and rinse
with soft water.
