Meissonier admitted that he would
not have made good portraitist by
profession, for with few exceptions
he had succeeded only with sitters
whom he liked and knew well. he
was not satisfied with painting things
as he saw them; he had to under
stand how they came to have such
or such an appearance. Though ht
claimed to remember every draw
ing that he had made, he also
claimed that he did not reduce his
knowledge 10 general formula. BE

The agricultural department has is
sued a circular letter to be sent to all
railroad presidents in the United States.
Offering suggestions for their co-opera-
ton in the good roads movement Many
Of the railway companies have made
concessions in transporting road mate
rails ranging from half rates to free car
rage. Others have offered to carry the
freight at the bare cost Of hauling when
ever a general Improvement be under
taken. 1t is suggested that the latter
plan be generally adopted. The method
Of computing the cost, il is cited, could
be defined and "a board constituted for
adjusting the rates to be granted In &C
cordance with local conditions. The cir
cular says:
.Such a combined concession would
be Of immense value to the public, while
il would involve little actual expense e
the companies, and its bare announce
ment would do more to advance the road
movement than years Of purely educa-
tional work. 1t would be an inspiration
to prompt action by state and local au-
thorities throughout the Union Should
anything in the state or national statutes
be found to inhibit such discrimination
in rates. the legislative authorities would
no doubt quickly remove the obstacles
in the interest Of the public welfare. "

Ii Is said that never was there q

the celebrated Scotch artist. One
amusing story connected with this
trait Of his character was told by
Henry Thomson. who afterward
grew TO be quite friend of Wilkie 5.

The quantity Of water required to
keep macadam roads from becoming
dusty depends ON the conditions Of the
weather, the kind Of material used ia
the roadway, the dimensions Of the
roadway and its exposure to the sun.
In the vicinity Of New York city it was
determined some years ago that ]. 900
square yards Of road surface could be
kept fairly free Of dust by the use Of q
sprinkler which spread water ut the rate
Of 7l.3 cubic feet twice day on each
1000 square yards Of road surface, max
ing a total Of l43 cubic feet Of water for
each 200 square yards. But some road
materials are softer than others and the
wear Of their surfaces is consequently
faster, and this hastcns the accumula-
ton Of dust II the road Il exposed to
the hot sun aud warm brcczcs. the wh-
ter evaporatcs very quickly. The figures
given above will perhaps represent a
fair average, but to determine the figures
with exactncss each locality must bc
subjected to a separate tcst-Exchange.
