much more enterprising III the matter of
dress than the English. They have
taken up the Empire style in the upper
classes without moments hesitation.
The long Empire cloak, which is the

An Amusing Trick.

Select boy who will be easy to man,
age and seat him at table with a pob
let between his teeth. Now tell him &c
groan and make other doleful sounds
still keeping the glass between his teeth,
This part of the performance having
passed off, say to him. IL think, nv
friend, that the results would be more
satisfactory if 1 should cover your head
with this towel" Accordingly his head
is then enveioped in a cloth on which
two marks have been previously made
with charcoal to represent the eyes.
Care must be taken that the glass is still
kept between his teeth.
When all is ready he is told to con.
tinue to make the sounds he had made
before. If all goes well the resonance
OF the sounds, amplified by the presence
OF the glass and the curious aspect of
the boy, will form a combination quite
sufficient to please the most exacting.-

Die for me to carry out my plan of work
ing the roads, owing to the small
amount Of funds, will, as nearly as
possible. First, the road should he
cleared of all underbrush, timber and
stumps the fall width and thorough
system of drainage adopted. Water
should not be allowed to stand i'm the
bitches as it now does in most of orr
roads. When this is done, in nv iudg-
ment, the most difficult problem Of
road work will be solved. Owing to
our county being comparatively ieveTft
VIII be necessary to grade most of the
roads. On all sixty feet roads the Grade
should be not less than forty feet wide
on the base. All culverts should be box
or tile, at least twenty-four feet long.
inns VIII give good way, and the chi
verts will be less likely to fill I'm Inv
teams driving over the ends. We are
not properly equipped for effective
work; each district should be provided
with roadgrader and heavy roller :
the pillow and dumpscraper are too Slow.
Making roads with such implements il
too much like cutting wheat with a
graincradle.
Whether this system is to be perma-
nent or not, the county should furnish
improved machinery,so that the money
can be effectively and economically ex- I
pended. If each district will work a |
portion of the road thoroughly each !
year, in few years the whole can be /
made good, but if we continue to patch
hem up as the work has been done
heretofore, Just so long will our roads
De bad during the wet season. At
time l may give another rea-
on why the farming community
mould support all movements that will
n the end give us better roads.
