Tho movement which has been well
begun in many parts Of the country to
reform the wagon roads, which have to
q great extent fallen INTO a sad state Of
neglect, is likely to be forwarded by the
action taken by several agricultural col
leges and particularly by Cornell uni
versity, in giving courses Of instruction
in roadmaking
Very often bad roads exist because no
one in their vicinity knows how to con-
struct a road The people often do the
best they can; but roadmaking is a
science in itself, belonging properly to
the civil engineers profession
In Cornell university the professor Of
civil engineering, the professor of agri-
culture and the professor Of horticulture
have been directed to prepare plan for
putting the roadsof the university prop
erty into the best possible condition; and
when the road has been completed an
inscription is to be put upon it, stating
how much it cost. what materials were
used, and what methods were employed
in its construction.
In several agricultural colleges, courses
Of lectures are given by practical men
upon roadmaking Farmers institutes
are taking the matter up, and the people
everywhere are learning that much bet
ter methods Of roadmaking exist than

On Monday the March town meetings
were held in Maine Vermont and Mas
sachusetts. Men, simply because they
were men, voted on every article in thu
town warrant But women, who had
the same stake in the result as the men
who understood the town questions and
were involved in them, had no vote ex.
cept for school committee, and that only
in Massachusetts and Vermont.
In town in Maine on one street were
IA widows, and the only other owner Of
a house on the street was an unmarried
woman. But they had no vote for those
who would levy taxes on their property
and spend their money.
1t is time this shameful discrimination
should cease, not less for the credit Of
men than for the sake of Justice to WON.

The native women Of Alaska are said to
think great deal Of their husbands, and il
appearances go for anything they think a
great deal more of them after they are dead
than they ever did while the dear fellows
were in the flesh At the death of hus-
band widows grief is almost pitiable.
She shows the tenderest devotion to the
dear departed and has the sympathy, as
distance and affection of all her neighbors.
Atthe funeral the widow is asight to behold.
So severe is her grief and so much afraid is
she that her neighbors will think that she
has not shown sufficient amount of sor-
row that she paints the upper portion of her
face deep black. This particular badge
of mourning she wears for several days and
sometimes weeks after the funeral, and
then again she is very apt to marry some
other fellow within week or month Of
the death of her first lord and master. Then
she throws aside all evidences of grief. But
while she's grieving she grieves hard.

It is now generally conceded by the
"persons who know" that the real love
OF the Duke of Clarence was not his pret-
ty betrothed, but the Princess Helene of
Orleans, and that the mysIcrious inter
view that took place betwet that young
lady and the pope some Il lths before

to her becoming a Protestant, as by the
royal marriage act every member Of the
sovereign of England's family who mar
ries Catholic forfeits his OF her right to
the throne.
The pope expressed his willingness to
grant her the desired permission, but he
strongly advised her against changing
her religion, and she took the holy fa-
theirs advice. wrote concerning this
statement at the time Of the princes

been told that just before the duke
breathed his last he uttered frequently
and piteously in his delirium the name
of Helen" calling upon her with &C
cents Of such a fervent affection that poor
Princess May, who was watching by his
bedside, was seized with Mysteries and
was taken from the room. 1t is no won
dor, therefore, that she is supposed to be
not inconsolable for his loss. There is no
doubt but that she is still the choice of
the English nation for their future queen.
She is true born English girl; she is
pretty, and she is not too nearly related
to the Duke Of York, combination Of
qualities that no other royal damsel in
Europe possesses.-Paris Cor. Philsdel-

A recent order in this city was for a
rainbow dress, which was exceedingly
pretty. The ground was OF soft gray,
with the skirt trimmed with very wide
bands Of ribbon, following the colors Of
the rainbow. The very full ruffed sleeves
were also ribbon trimmed, and large
gray fan was shaded in the same way.
The beauty Of this dress was that the
wearer did not try to overdo matters.
There were no patchy effects, merely the
long, wavy lines Of color on the soft gray
ground The waist had a trimming of
crystal beads and no color whatever.
This raindrop effect was very good in
deed and gave a dainty and artistic
character to the whole outft.-Gncin-

All In the Manner of Dressing.

''It's all in knowing how to dress, "
said a woman's tailor, land the posses
sion of this happy faculty distinguishes
one woman from another. Of course
modistes and ladies' tailors help them
out greatly, but the best dressed women
are those who have ideas of their own.
Take the plain girl with stylish tastes
and ideas. A man forgets that she is
not pretty, especiallyif she is bright and
affable. Pretty women always receive
attention, and you can't get around the
fact that men want the pretty girl first.
but the stylish plain girl runs her close
second. Whether plain or pretty, wom-
en-, 30 far as the adornment of their per-
sons is concerned, have one central idea,
which is to dress so well that our admi-
ration is compelled and the jealousy of
their own sex aroused"

Men become bald. Why2 Because
they wear close hats and caps. Women
are never bald except by disease, and
they do not wear close headgear Men
never lose hair below where the hat
touches the head, not if they have been
bald 20 years. The close hat holds the
heat and perspiration; thereby the hair
glands become weak, and the hair falls
out. This should serve as a slight in
ducement to the woman who indulges in
the exasperating theater hat to remove it
during the play. Philadelphia Inquirer.

Suffice it to say that by this machine any
figure drawn on piece Of paper with pen
is reproduced at the other end Of the line
just as the voice is in a telephone. Thus a
written message is reproduced in the exact
handwriting of the sender, and diagram
or pen portrait is equally well reproduced,
SO Professor Gray claims and so theexperts
testify. They add, however, that double
circuit is required and very delicately adj
justed points and electrical machines for
long distances, all of which will be pro-
duced, of course, now that the main point
is assured
1t is claimed that the telephone was really
invented by Professor Gray, though Alex
ander Graham Bell obtained priority of
patent. Professor Gray has therefore taken
the precaution to patent each successive
discovery in his progress, and beginning
early in 1888 be has taken out nine patents

II the hoopskirt is to be fact, Brook
lyn will be ready for it, as the head dress
maker Of one of the large houses has been
experimenting with dress skirt six yards
round the bottom. One woman walk
ing round its extent of fullness declares
that "she will never, no never, wear any
thing as hideous, even If she should be
the only woman in the city TO stand out
against it," "But you must keep in the
fashion" says the next, and the third
suggests that after all it is "dreadfully
stylish" which meets with murmur Of
applause from those who have hardly
dared express their opinions, II neither
ones own good taste nor common sense
can reconcile a fashion any other way,
then 1t must be dreadfully stylish, and
that settles it.
The woman who invented the hoop
skirt in the first place was bright wom-
an, so bright, in fact, that she invented
it for some one else to wear, and then
stood aghast at the rapidity with which
1t was taken up 1t does not matter that
the fashion may have been devised to
cover the deformity Of some titled or con-
spicuous person; hitherto there have been
plenty eager to copy.
Mrs. Selby died in January, 1717, but
she lived to see the article she devised for
reasons other than identifying the rage
Of the fashionable world. The mysteri-
GUS origin Of many other ridiculous fash
ions might be traced in the same way.
Yet once encouraged by the elegantes,
few ask the how or why. But this is not
the first time within recent years that
there has been an attempt to bring in the
crinoline again. During the winter Of
1890 fashionable modistes tried to pave
the way for its temperance by asking
their customers if they knew the hoop
skirt was coming back again. Brooklyn
