There is no more childish trick than
the too nmo of boasting One
encounters II everywhere. particularly
where ones antecedents are not realized
by the listeners. Older people indulge
in it more than their children, who seem
to have a keener sense-in this way-of
the ridiculous. and women are far more
prone to it than men. This is. however.
because they care more for the pomps
and vanities of this world than do men
in general. If a man has a weakness
for fine things, for swell society and
acquaintance, he is pretty sure to allow
his folly to creep put in the form of
brag. Such folks should serve as object
lessons for their fellows. In that sense
they are Of use in the world. -Philadel-

The method Of strengthening copper
steam pipes by mea of coiled metal
wire has been quite generally adopted
in the Italian navy. The practice is to
serve the tubes with one or two layers
Of wire wound under tension. The
method is not considered applicable to
other than straight tubes. The wire is
of sufficient strength to carry the full
load Of steam. and the tension used in
winding is about /. tons per square inch.
The wire is put on in two or three indie
pendent spirals, and the ends Of each
are independently fastened to the fianges

The workmen began on the old floor,

One of the men ripped up a board with
his crowbar, raising a cloud of dust.
When he got it IA of his eyes, he saw
something shiny in the crack.
He picked it up, and it proved to be a
dime. Further investigation revealed
the fact that the crack was lined with
silver.
This was an incentive to the workmen.
They piled their crowbars with remark

instance they Were amply rewarded.

farmers of the county what has
become of the proposition to pike
the main roads of the county.
There seems to be general walk
ing up all over the country to
the fact that Bad Roads are one
of the greatest drawbacks farm.
ers have to contend with. If it is
not considered good policy to
bond the County and pike the
roads, is there not some othel
way to at least improve them
How would it do for the county
to purchase a stone crusher fol
each district and try to build
or 5 miles in each district in such
a manner that it would not have
to be gone over every year
would it not be a good plan t.
have a road committee in eacf
district to direct the road over
seers where to work. A great
deal of the work each year would
then count; as it is, good dea
is wasted. Let us hear from the
county and try to get out of the
