WHICH are lTOIn TEltOhD.
six to eight inches in size, are set in po-
sition on the rolled earth and covered
with six-inch layer of macadam metal,
broken so as to pass through two and
one-half inch ring. This is then rolled
with steam roller, the pattern most
commonly used being 15-ton machine,
costing 5000, though cotton and Bottom
machines are in use. tkbbBE
"When it is found that the metal will
not yield to the roller the bed is ready
for another layer of stone, which should
be six inches deep in the center, sloping
to the sides, and again compactly rolled.
A top dressing of fine broken stone, usu-
ally the screenings from a crusher, and
not exceeding three-quarters Of an inch
in largest dimensions, is spread over the
road to depth of two inches. A steam
roller will compact these screenings to
smooth surface and the road is ready
for travel. The rolling is facilitated and
greater compactness secured il the stone
is thoroughly sprinkled. Unless great
volume of traffic is to pass over the road
it is not necessary to have the metal q
foot thick, depth of eight inches being
sufficient for ordinary travel"
In using the macadam on a common
dirt road, without the Telford founda-
ton, the metal is placed upon the hard
rolled surface in uniform layer not ex-
ceeding 6 inches in depth. This layer is
compactly rolled, and then another layer
of metal is spread on and treated in the
same way, and 80 on until the roadway
is completed according to The Records
description of the Telford road.
The great expense of macadam roads
is an obstacle to their general adoption.
A method for reducing the expense is
suggested by The New York Journal of
Commerce in an editorial given below:
cit would pay everywhere to construct
the best macadamized roads, and the
work should be undertaken by the state
where long thoroughfares are required
We have often suggested that it need
cost very little if the convicts and GRIM
inals who cannot be given their liberty
because of their unrestrained depravity
were employed at the task. This would
effect double object. 1t would build
splendid roads at small cost throughout
the length and breadth of the land, and
it would tend to restrain crime. It Is
little hardship to the burglar or the high
wayman to keep him in prison where
he is well fed and clothed and better
cared for on the whole than the average
of honest laborers who support them
selves. If he was set to breaking stone
and road building in chain gang, and
made to eat his bread in the sweat Of his
face, under a burning July sun or In the
chill of winter, he would not think that
conviction of crime was such light
matter"

Road msndinr In France.

A writer in Harper's Weekly recently
gave the following description Of mend
ing a national road in France: "With
the beginning Of October and the rainy
season an inspector comes out-though
for that matter he is almost always trav-
cling up and down-followed by large
gang Of men, one or more steam rollers,
which, il the district is far from town,
pull after them gypsy vans in which the
men live. The properly broken stone is
then spread evenly over the road, the
interstices are flied up with smaller
stones and pebbles, the refuse from the
larger stuff; over this is spread layer
Of chalky or clayey earth, which had
been carted and heaped there in neat
piles during the summer; what we would
call mush molly is made out of the whole
mass with water from the gutter, which
the engine Of the roller pumps through n
hose; the steam roller next parades up
and down over the surface for day or
so, boards and guards are put up to keep
the passers by from driving on the grass,
and by the middle of winter the whole
surface Is perfect; so perfect Is it that in
o ride through the Vosges in the early
spring, although there were high snow
banks on both sides, the road having
been cleared, and although frost was
coming up out of the ground, it was COM
paratively easy to ride on light bicycle
instead Of being obliged to pull the ma

Why, you could have given an egg
breakfast to seventy persons, and, at the
rate of two of our domestic hens eggs to
each person, would have had plenty. Just
think of taking the contents of 40 of
our hens eggs and putting them into
one egg shelll
The bird that laid this enormous egg
is known as the Aepyornis maximus, ,.and
it was the. largest bird ever known to
exist. 1t was a first cousin of the ostrich,
although much larger bird, towering
above the tallest giraffe.
From the circumstances under which
the first egg was found it was hoped the
bird might still be living, but only the
incomplete skeleton of it and fragments
of other eggs were ever discovered.
There is but one complete egg of this
giant bird to be seen in the civilized
world at present, and it is cracked in
several places. 1t is in the possession of
the French government, and is kept In
the Jardin des Plantes in Paris.

He says: "Oh, really, Miss De

De We're feels then that Casey is at the
bat, and that the game is in her own
hand, so she answers with her most in

thought was hard hearted"
Then the unfortunate, who doesn't
care whether she is hard hearted or
not, but thinks If she eats much more
ice cream she will have to have dose
of ginger, responds: "Oh, no; but you
have been cruel in not letting me
come near you"
Then he wonders that the ground
doesn't open and swallow him, for
she has been running after him day
and night until he has quite made up
his mind to leave the place
If she knew how to be coy this
would be her opportunity, but instead
she says: "Well, / will try and be

Easter Festivities at Chester.

There is hardly an ancient English city
which is not surrounded by the memo
ries Of the quaint customs Of bygone
times. Most of them selected some par
ticular day to celebrate. Easter was
chosen by Chester and was enlivened by
sports-everybody played football, there
being two games, one for the men and
one for the women-and an imposing
procession. This latter was not discon-
tinued until 1866, having been kept up
for centuries. It had its origin in the de-
livery from the Welsh of Lord buttons
castle. Many minstrels and other rowing
characters were gathered together and
marched toward the invaders camp.
They made an imposing appearance, and
although they could not have fought for
half an hour, frightened the Welsh away.
Lord Dutton, out of gratitude, declared
