There iSno fixed rule for the construc-
ton of under drains, says I. B. Potter in
Good Roads. The primary object of this
form of drain is to provide an under
ground channel which shall invite and
carry off the surplus water which sat
urates the surrounding earth above the
level of the drain. Any form of under
drain which permanently accomplishes
this result is good, and a drain that is
not permanently good might better have
been left unmade. To construct good
drain requires no elaborate outfit, and
the common sense selection and use Of
materials found in most neighborhoods
will generally suffice.
Draintile should be used if possible.
It is cheap, plentiful and makes a per-
manent and substantial drain, insures
an ample, uniform and constant chan
mel for the food Of water and is far and
away the best channel for ordinary road
drainage that has yet come into common
use
In the matter of size a draintile hav-
ing an inner diameter of or inches
will generally be sufficient for the under
drainage of 3O-foot roadway and in
many soils Of even n greater width. a
greater diameter may always be used to
advantage. and 6-inch pipe is none too

roadway, since the larger pipe invites

I pair il IS best NJ the outset TO give due
attention to the work Of making it per
manent.
There is a variety of methods followed

Of tile drains, and most of them are

charities. 1t is also engaged in the dis
semination of knowledge concerning the
unfavorable conditions under which vast
numbers of the people live, owing to I'M
wholesome dwellings, defective working
accommodation, irregular and i'll paid
labor, the competition of immigrants,
the harshness of the poor law, unjust
taxation, adulteration of food, poor edu-
cational facilities and other grave disad-
vantages.
The idea of the union was first con-
ceived by Tom Mann, the widely known
socialist agitator who three years ago
divided with John Burns the manage
ment OF the great dock strike in London.
Mann thought If he could unite reform
ers of all convictions in one organization
and get them to work together more
good could be effected than by the sepa-
rate efforts Of individuals or small CO.
teries. If the organization holds togeth-
er. it would not be surprising if it ulti-
mately secured the simplifcation of the
present complex, cumbersome govern
ment of the English metropolis. At any
rate, it is making great efforts in that
direction.
Mr.. Mann is almost entirely self edu-
Gated. He was born in the Coventry
colliery district in 1855 and had very
little schooling. At 8 years of age he
was at work on farm and at 10 went
down in the mines. At IA he was APP
prenticed to toolmaker in Birming-
ham and at 2l went to London. He
used to be a religious devotee and admits
having been somewhat fanatical on the
subjects of temperance and vegetarian
ism. At % he read Ruskin and Herbert
Spencer and says it then dawned upon
him that social reform was more of an
economic than a moral problem, and he
went neck and heels into the socialist
Q citation.
He was not in full accord with his so
cialist comrades, however, as he was a
firm advocate of the benefits of trades
unionism and a persistent agitator for
an eight hour law. both of which move
ments were sneered at by prominent So
cialists as mere makeshifts. Now he ad-
vocates a graduated income tax, discs

CARE OF THE OVEN.
Must lie Kept Clean If Good Cooking Is
Looked For.

Looked For.
The condition of the average stove
oven in which food and pastry are
baked is not such as to inspire admira-
ton. In fact, a perfunctory sort of
sweeping is about all the cleaning our
stove ovens ever receive. In great
many cases remnants of dishes which
have boiled over remain for months
charred on the oven bottom.
Now, all this negligence in the care of
the oven undoubtedly affects the food
cooked in it. In some parts of England
where brick ovens are used the walls of
them are whitewashed. This purifies
them, as common whitewash, it is we'll
known, is an excellent disinfectant. OF
course it would not be possible to treat
an ordinary iron stove oven in this way,
as the lime would corrode the oven. In
some parts of Europe the ovens are tiled,
and these may be easily washed clean.
There is no possible objection TO wash
ing out the oven of an iron range. If
this is done Systematically at least once
a week from the beginning, the oven will
never get in the black sooty condition in
which it is SO frequently found.
When anything boils over i'll the oven,
II SnOulu De allowed 10 DuTn 10 n Cuar,
as it then may be easily scraped off and
brushed out. After this. the oven should
be thoroughly aired. 1t is q great mis-
take to bake delicate dessert or cake
or pie i'll the same oven with dish of
meat which has been favored with
onions or strong spices. The flavor of
the meat will invariably affect the more
delicate dishes. The shallow closet I'M
der the baking oven, commonly called
the heating closet, where dishes may be
temporarily kept warm after they are
cooked, should be kept as clean as the
stove oven. 1t is certainly a very disa-
greeable and hard job to clean a stove
which has been neglected, but it is n
small matter to keep a stove clean you
begin at the beginning and never allow
it to become clogged with SCOT and dust
and the debris of food. The flues of
every oven should be cleaned ont once a
month.

vantage in his new position.
Senator Perkins is a native of Kenne-
bunkport, Me, and was born "a years
ago, but he is still in the robust prime of
healthy life, alert, active and attentive
to his business. He is good ready
speaker and has long been prominent in
the councils of the Republican party of
his state, which elected him governor in
1879 after a very hard campaign fight
with the Denis Kearney contingent, who
christened him "Pinafore" Perkins.
The senator comes from seagoing
family and took to the water when he
was IL years old, running away from
home to go to sea. He went to Cali
fornia as a sailor in 1855. and like great
many others left his vessel to try the
mines. Then he tried farming and
bookkeeping and built two Touring
mills, which he ran for several years
