hard b stone (corbonate and ime) OBJ.
tasaed the line Of the Wacotnp OF the
HoustonV q Texas Central railroad In
/ Shnekeiord county. This stone Is put
down on y bed Of coarse gravel ooly -four
inches thick, and the gravel was not rolled
or packed 10 receive the stone, but spread
over the lr0adbod with stones and rakcs.
The roadbed had, however, been graded 10
sub.grade of twelve inches below the es-
tabislieA grade OF the street, and this was
well rolled with a5,O0e.pound roller Of iron,
FIVE feebIlong.
The stone blocks are not
laid DOWN Hat on their natural besh but
turned up edge-vise, and laid in, rows
across the street from curb to curb, and q
space OF about one-hslfan inch LETT between
the rows, but only about one-quarter Of an
inch between adjoining blocks, and these
spaces filled with a coarse gravel screened
through screen of half-inch meshes. Be-
FIRE filling the interstices, however, the
blocks of 9sone are rammed into the gravel
with u payier's ma0l, weighing eighty
pounds, and all brought to an even and
uniform grade. Along, the curb at the end
of the rowe-of stone blocks is row OF
blocks six inches thick, twelve inches long,
and twelve inches deep, laid longitudinslly
with the street to make q kind OF AUDITING
ksw.H as k Tor the paving. The paving
stones are Ghout six inctes square on top
and dightinches deep.
Main street in Houston is
90 feet widey with sidewalks of 10 feet, lesy-
ing d roadway of GA feet. The roadDed is
crowned in the middle712 inches above
the bottom of the gutter and the curb is
IL inches deep, thus bringing the outside
edge of the sidewalk on o level with the
center of the street. The blocks of build
ingd are $50 feet long, and cross-streets 80
feet wide. The cost Of this paving includ-
inglgrading, was about So per square yard,
or $10.66 per lineal foot, or $40 for 25-
foot front on each side OF the street; or
$1,000 for each block and cross street. No
advantage over the bos dare wooden pave
ment could be discovered, whereas the
STONE will be more noisy, more dusty,
n9re expressive, and great deal warmer
in summer. Dallas couldA lay this stone"
pavement cheaper than Houston, as there
the gravel costs double the price paid here,
and the stone is also hauled twice as far,
and must, Of course, cost much more. Ks
to the durability of the stone and bois dare,
opinions differ. Some confidently assert
that The bois dare, if laid on the same
foundation as the stone paGs ment, and put
down carsfully according 10 the specifics
t}ons of the city engineer, will last as long,
il not longer, than the stone. But the life
of both pavements, in fast of all street
pavemenis, Is dependent upon the founda
tion below, and here too much care cannot
be expended.

Calls on Horses

Sore backs and sore shoulders cause
great suffering among large numbers Of
horses and mules, and the owners of
these animals should everywhere re ia
miiar with the proper remedies for
these evils. Most saddle sores may be
cured by II clean, soft saddle blanket,
padded SO rs to take tho bearing of the
saddle entirely olfthe sores, the back to
be washed clean daily with soap and wa
ter. \ neighbor Of ours, who has mad
much to do with plantation mules and
horses, and who is veterinary authority
in the neighborhood, says he has cured
the worst of sore backs with coal oil,
keeping the sore clean, and applying the
remedy several times daily. Calomel
sometimes cures tho worst of these
sores. We know several persons who
have great faith in old leather The sole

mel. and applied to the sore. Others
have known such sores to DC cured with
shoe coal dust alone. Collars that injnre
work horsesand mules should be scraped
clean with knife, washed in soap and
water, and protected by padding SO that
the bearing will be above and below the
sore. Washing the shoulders in cool
water will prevent sore shoulders if the
collar fits well. II is cruel to compel Il
work animal to wear a collar that is bad
fit, and that fortunes the animal all the
time 1t is at work. These are general and
simple remedies in the reach of all: for
obstinate sores that will not yield to
common remedies IL good book on farm
ing will be consulted ora veterinary

After Marriage.

One frequent cause of trouble in mar.
ricd life is want Of orenness in business
matters. A husband marries pretty,
thoughtless girl, who has been used TO
taking no more thought as to how she
should be clothed than the lilies of the
field. Hc begins by not liking to refuse
any Of her requests. He will not hint,
so long as he can hell it, at care in trifl-
ing eXpenses-hc does not like to asso-
ciate himself in her mind with disapoint-
ments and self-denials. And she, who
would have been willing enough, in the
sweet cagcrness to please Of her girlish
love, to give up any Whims or fancies of
her own whatever. falls into habits of
careless extravaganza, and feels herself
injured when, ut last Il remonstrancc
comes. How much wiser would have
been perfect opcnness in the beginning!
1--WE have just SO much money to spend

that the drainage is one Of the necessi-
