"No, 1 heard her say she didn't like to

"That's bad. That doesn't sound like

STONE ROADS OF BYGoNe DAYS.
Wonderful Highway of the Peruvians.
 The Road of Cheops.

Perhaps the earliest road on record k that mentioned by HerOdotus as having been constructed by ChHopS, the Egyp- tian king, ill order that stones might be dragged along it for his pyramid. In the opinion of the Greek traveller, the work of making the road was as great as that of building the pyramid. for 1t took ten years to construct, and II was composed of polished stones, with figures carved on them. But this does not compare in magnitude with the highways construct ed by the Peruvians while medieval Europe was still in a state of Semibar- barous disorSaniZation. The two prin- cipal roads in Peru ran from Quito, in the north, to Cuzco. the capital, the one along the sandy and level strip of coast, the other along the plateau of the An des, a region of unparalleled engineer ing difficulty. The length of the second has been estimated at from 1, ,500 to 5000 miles. It crossed Sierras buried in snow, bridged ravines with walls of solid masonry. mounted and descended precipices by staircases hewn in the solid rock and ran in iuterminable gal leries along the sides of intractable mountains.
 Where rivers had to be crossed bridges were made with ropes of stout pliant osier twisted to the thickness of mans body and stretched over the stream sometimes for distance of 200 feet These cables swung side by side, and fastened with blanks so as to form a footway were drawn through holes in enormous buttresses of stone specially construced on each bank and were se- cured firmly at each end to heavy beams of timber. \ railing of similar osier material gave the passenger confidence as he crossed the Oscillating bridge that sank dangerously in the middle and mounted rapidly at the sides.
 The great highway was 20 feet wide and was built with flags of freestone COW cred with bituminous cement. It was measured out by posts set up at every league. Caravanseries and magazines were stationed at convenient distances for the Peruvian soldiers on their mili- tary expeditions. and a regular postal service had been organized by which highly trained runners. relieved every five miles. could convey messages a dis tance of 900 miles in 24 hours. The roads were kept i'll beautiful order. the inhabitants of district being responsi- ble for that portion of the highway which traversed their land. At the same time it should be remembered that there was no wheel traffic to cut up the level surface of the hard pavement. There is considerable irony in the fact that it was not till the Spaniards forci- bly introduced their so called civiliza- tion into Peru that the famous roads be- gan to fall into disrepair. Standard.
