A HandX Music Pen.

A pen for copying music consists
of a pen and penholder with two
tubes, which project from either end
of the pen very much after the style
of the ''swizzle stick" which plays
an important part in the evolution
Of the sundry refreshing beverages
affected by West Indians. These
tubes are studded at the end with
pieces of rubber in the shape re
spectively of open and closed music
notes, and an ink pad is also sup
piled. In writing minims OF semi
breves the open" tip is pressed
tightly on the pad, and then the
characters are quickly dabbed on the
music lines, and the CLOSED" tip
serves for crotchets, ETC., the upright
stroke being made by the pen.-New

A Meat Dict for the ,Japaness.

The mikado's government has come
to the conclusion that both the
stature and physique of the japanese
people are unsatisfactory and in need
of improvement. A parliamentary
commission appointed to investigate
the causes of this lack of stamina
has, after prolonged investigation,
ascribed it to the vegetable diet to
which the japanese have hitherto
mainly confined themselves. Neither
rice nor fish, it is alleged, possesses
the sustaining power as articles of
food possessed by meat. The com
mission has therefore recommended
and the government has approved
the report-that a meat diet should
be substituted for the rice, fish and
vegetables which now constitute the
principal ingredients of japanese
cookery. x Chicago Herald.

FOR THE ROAD EXHIBIT.

Suggestion for The Practical Demonstra-
tion of the Value of Good Roads.
In a letter to the New York Tribune
on the subject of good roads exhibit at
the Worlds fair, Mr.. Oberlin Smith
makes the following suggestion:
In view of the great and well deserved
interest which the subject of improved
public roads is now exciting throughout
the land, and assuming that a special ex-
hibit is likely to be shown at the Column
bian exposition not only of various road
vehicles, but of short sections of the
roads themselves, it is to be hoped both
very bad and bad, as we'll az indifferent
and good, write to suggest that an ad
ditional object lesson be given to the mn.
merous and interested crowds of visitors
who will see this exhibit, rs follows:
Over the various sample pieces of road
which will be shown, consisting presum
ably of asphalt, belgian, macada,n. tel
ford, cobble, wood, shell, gravel, sand
loan, mud, deep mud and hub deep mud
pavements, or at any rate over a few Of
the most characteristic of these. let there
be drawn vehicles Of one or more kinds

do very much to convince the public, and
especially the farming public. who are
most interested in the matter. Of the

practical good. Regarding the details of
the above mentioned apparatus it is not

The question as to who will install

In Persia truthfulness is at a pre-
MUM, ss the English resident soon
discovers. For some time after his
arrival he is the victim of his serv-
ants, of the tradesmen, and indeed
of the natives in general. AS DR..
Wills says, he buys experience more
or less dearly, but, having bought it,
he is able to correct his mistakes one
by one.
Gradually he takes root in the
country. He "hits it off" with the
Persians. The solitary makes friends
real friends, not mere acquaint-
ances-and strange to say, these
friends are often from the priesthood,
the most fanatical among the Mos
lens. And these oriental friends
always confess that what originally
attracted them to their new ally is
the strange fact that an Englishman
doesn't lie.
In Persia, the great hotbed of lies
and intrigue, the man who does not
lie is indeed a phenomenon. Very
soon the Englishman is invited to
dinners, to marriage feasts, even to
picnics, for he is a lion, and the lee
hunter exists even in Persia.
Little by little the influence of 1.-THE
man who tells the truth" begins to
spread. Disputes are referred ohm,
for is he not the only judge in the
place who does not hunger for a

court, and the reference being by
mutual consent and purely unofficial,
there can be no appeal.-Youth's

The True Apostle of Roadbuilding.

The educational process prerequisite
to the construction of good roads is quite
different from what Colonel Pope con
ceives it to be. The country is full of
engineers who possess all the needful
knowledge for good roadbuilding. The
true apostle of the cause will be he who
discovers d surgical process by which
the agricultural Uranium be opened
to the admission of an idea. The fact
that non has been discovered, though its
need has been felt from the date Of
B9otian statehood to this present, is
calculated to dispirit ever the sanguine.
If the country members of any state
legislature whatever will permit the
money to be spent, that state will have
a road system well advanced in less
than five years afterward.
In repeated messages to the Legislature
Of New York Governor Hill urged upon
them the policy of providing for Il sys
TEN of state and county roads. AS fruit
fully did the good saint of legend preach
to the fishes. Much enlightened were
they, but they preferred the old way.
The question is not one of politics. but Of
plain downright ignorance. Speaking
generally, townsfolk know the value OF
good roads; country folk do not. The
first are prepared to pay the cost Of good
roads; the second will neither pay for
them themselves nor submit to any con-
tribution toward their cost, even under
a mode of assessment that would throw
the chief burden Of construction on
shoulders other than their own.
Furthermore, though no principle il
better approved by experience Or is
founded in sounder reason than that the
maintenance of roads once built ought
to fall upon the vehicles using them, yet
this is a principle two subtle for the agri.
cultural intelligence. Its first fruit is
found to be the widening of the wheel
tire, SO that the wear of the road is much
diminished. In other words. the cost OF
maintenance is diminished. Again, the
main roads between towns are used by
the townsfolk several times more than
they are by the countrymen. In short
an important economy is effected and Il
right principle adopted by imposing the
cost of maintenance upon the vehicle
But this is an idea, and again calls fol
the undiscovered surgical process. New
