Broad vs.. Narrow Wagon Tires.

From the Chicago Tribune
We have often wondered why people per.
slst IN the use of narrow wagon tires in any
section of country where the roads are Of
clay and mud. Common sense should
teach nell that the narrower the tire the
deeper the wheel will sink down in the
mud. The prevailing width Of road wagon
tires IS one and three-fcurths to two iuches,
wileo they should be at least double that.
IL the tire were four inches wide, the wng-
on would not sink one quarter Us deep in
soft roads, and these terrible ruts seen in
wet weather would not exist, Broad tires
have the effect of smoothing and improving
clay roads. The surface of roads will s,.ru
certain amount OF pressure, tut the mar
row tire OF aloaded wagon cuts through it
IKE kn1fe; whereas broad tire four or
tive inches wide would roll over it without
sinking. 1t the wagons in this city were
oil broad tire it would save tho property
holders at least half million year in the
wear OF improved streets which are now torn
~ Pleces ~ A1rrVN Alcs VI ns;lVllv laden
trucks. We find the follow ing on this sub
ject in the Dowaciac (Mioh.) EepubE-
can:
Tho wide tire wagon is coming into
general use in this vicinity. Those who
haye purchased this style Of wagon could
not be induced to 20 back to the Old. The
philosophy of this is readily observed. Tho
broad tire does not cut through, either III
mud or sand, thus making the dra ught
much lighter; besides this the roads are not
cut up, but to the contrary, the bread tire
presses down the Jumps and leaves a
smooth track, thus bet.ering tho ro Ids. the
advantage Of which is easily unuerstood.
Many farmers and teamsterp are having
their wheels fixed over with broad tire.
which is done at small cost, while hardly q
new wagon is made here of the old style.
1t is hoped that the broad tire will be gen
orally adopted, and that none will pur-
chase wagon without first considering
the benefits arising from using this stvle
The tire which Seems to meet with general
favor is three and half insses vide.

Tho Marriage Life.

The marriage life is always an insipid, u
vexatious, or happy condition. The first is
when two people of no genius or taste for
themselves meet together upon such set
uemcnt as has been thought reasonable by
parents and conyeyancers,. from an exact
valuation in the land and cash Of both
parties. In this case the young lady is no
moro regarded than the house and improve
ments in purchase of au estate; but she
goes with her fortune, rather than her for
tune with her. These mako up the crowd,
and fill up tho lumber of the human race.
without bene6cepce toward those below
them, or respect 10 those above them.
The vexatious life arises from 4
conjunction of two people of quick taste
and presentment, put together for reasons
we'll known to their friends, in which
especial care Is taken to avoid Whist they
think tho chief Of OWLS, poverty, and ensure
TO them riches, with every evil besides.
These people live in n constant constraint
before company. When they are III
observation they fre! at each others car
rjaga and behavior; when alcne they revive
each others conduct. The happy marriage
is whore two persons meet and voluntarily
make choice Of each other. without rrinci-
@'a'ly regarding or neglecting the circum-
stances Of fortune or beauty. These may
live in spite Of adversity or sickness; the
former ws may, in Eome measure, defend
ouye!f from; the other is tho portion of our
worry make.--jSir Rich.11l Steel.
