building Macndnm Rnaas.

Road makers do not quite agree as to
the method of applying binding ma
terial to the road metal in the construc-
ton OF macadam roads, nor do thew
agree in their opinions regarding the
use of rollers. 1t is doubtless best in
most cases TO roll the macadam layers
so that all the pieces of metal will be
forced into as close contact as possible
before applying any binding material,
for If the binding material be applied
before rolling, it will find its way be-
tween the surfaces of the broken stones
and prevent their being brought into
close contact with each other. 1t is
generally conceded that sand is an ex-
cellent binding material, but all bind
crs of hard. gritty nature must be
rolled moro thoroughly and with a
heavier roller than if soft loan is used.

A Little Tin Mouse.

A Manayunk man who has pet cat
bought one of those new tangled mouse
toys from vender on Market street on
Saturday afternoon. When he arrived
at his house in the evening, he brought
out the mouse and began to run it up
and down the dining room floor. Tabby,
who was lying on rug, suddenly gave
a jump for the supposed rodent. This
scared the head of the house SO much
that he jumped back and in doing 80 up
set the supper table, breaking nearly all
the dishes and mixing up the evening
meal into boarding house hash. The
family dog secured the choicest beef
steak, and the cat began to lap up the
spilled cream. Mr.. Housekceper had a
big sized row with his wife and ended
up the scene by getting gloriously drunk.
The tin mouse, the cause of all the es-
arrangement, was crushed in the melee

THE ROAD PROBLEM.
Emphatic Declaration Made by the Ma.
tional Farmers Congress,

emphatic Declaration Made by the Ma
tional Farmers Congress.
Throughout the country cconom-
ical road improvement would save
$3.50, 100000 per year in the trans
portation of farm products alone.
There would be other financial gains
BY permitting the farmer to market a
good part of his surplus during the
winter and early spring, instead of his
being compelled to market it nearly all
while field work is possible, two mil
lion of the twenty million draft ami
mails III the country could he dispensed
with, and these two million animals
are worth s17o.OOOO, 900, while to feed
them for one year costs 500, 900, 900.
Among other advantages of good
roads over poor ones are that heavier
loads can be drawn, and drawn faster,
and the difference in the selling price
of produce, if carried in wagon over
smooth road for one hour, and the
same produce carried over IL rough road
for three hours is the difference, often
times, between profit and ss.-Decla-

ContaEion.

Some of the diseases which flesh is heir
to are contagious in every sense of the
word. a contact 80 slight that it does
not reach even skin contact, but merely
contact with the cir which smallpox
patients breathe, is sufficient to cause
smallpox In man. So, too, mediate con-
tact-that is to say, the handling by the
we'll of material touched by the sick
has been proved to be the cause of many
diseases, of which erysipelas and scarlet
fever may be cited as examples. The
products of certain other diseases =
typhoid fever, for example-require to
be taken into the economy to become
maleficent. Still others, such as CHAMBERS,
must be introduced into the blood cur
rent itself before they are dangerous
These facts have been proved by long
observation and are not to be disputed
