now we are feasting on an

The disgusting rush after
titled foreigners by American
henesses still continues. From
present indications, it looks as
if the next congress might cas-
lily fill up tie deficit caused by
Knocking out the income tax
law, by amending the constitu-
tioni SO that the government
could sell titles, and thus man
ufacture a few princes, dukes,
lords, ETC., out of our own raw
material, to marry our heiresses.
Such an amendment would also
result in keeping at home the
colossal fortunes amassed by
shrewd Americans through the
labor and needs of the people.

HOW MEN IN

Some one with nothing else

Tribune, has investigated the
way in which 100 men in fiction
are reported as proposing
Seventy-two hold the lady's
hand, seventeen hold it very
tightly, fourteen have Jumps in
their threats and nine exclaim
aloud: "Thank heavens!" Only
seven out of 100 declare them
selves to be deliriously happy,
and five are too full for utter
'ance. Three out of 100 stand
on their feet when they make a
proposal, and two go down on
one knee while nine make a
formal prelude-somethiug like
the slow music in the play,
when the villain appeals to
heaven to witness the consum-
ing flame of his affections for
the heart he plots to ruin, etc.
The behavior of the lady under
the circumstances is equally
entertaining and instructive
Out of 100 cases eighty-one

gentleman, sixty-eight rest
their heads on the gentle
mans breast, and only one
sinks into the arms of a chair.
eleven clasp their arms around
the gentleman's neck, six weep
:ears of joy silently, and forty
four weep tears aloud-what
ever that means, seventy-two
have eyes full of love and nine
out of 100 rush from the room

JOURNALISTIC ENTERPRISE

What is the most striking in
stance of journalistic enterprise on
record2 fancy it would be hard
to beat the following case, which
remember being told me in America:
4 reporter was dispatched from
New York to the distant scene of
an execution. On arrival he found
that the execution was fixed, for
noon-a fixture just an hour too
late for him to get off his dispatch
in time Nothing daunted, he went
to the sheriff and implored that
official to put the execution forward.
The sheriff naturally refused, but
was ultimately 50 far talked round
as to promise to authorize the
change "if the person chiefly con-
cerned made no objections" The
reporter, in accordance with the
usual custom in America, was ad-
mitted to the condemned cell, where
he explained his errand to its oc-

Recent reports to the agricultural

marked degree of interest in the good
roads movement among the state legis-
iatures. Gen. Roy Stone, in charge Of
the bureau of road inquiry, has re-
turned from California and Texas,
where large road conventions were
held, the former having concluded to
utilize convict labor in preparing road
materials. Several bulletins to stimu-
late the movement will soon be issued
by the department. They will treat Of

and preparing rod materials, and of

ors on road questions.

A Flock for the Family.

Leaving out the matter of profit and
of selling eggs, there is much pleasure
in keeping small flock of fowls for
family use. A few hens can be kept at
less cost, proportionately, than can q
large number, owing to the fact that
the scraps from the table are valuable.
No labor of consequence is necessary,
and when an account for the year is
kept the small flocks will be found to
have given quite profit in the CONVEX
sion of the waste material into eggs.
There Is no way to procure eggs as
fresh and nice as those produced by
your own hens. If they are of choice
breed, the pleasure will be the greater,
as vel. from pride in endeavoring to
excel as from the management.-Farm

PROTEST FROM MAINE.

HGr. Donneil Ridicules the Way They
"Break Roads" In Yankeeiand.
Some winter morning the highway
surveyor Of district No. wakes up to
find all familiar landmarks out of sight
beneath a thick covering of snow which,
it Is more than likely. has drifted in
huge heaps across the highway wher-
ever fence, stone wall or clump Of
bushes has prevented the winds unim-
peded march. The highway surveyor,
mindful of the important part he plays
in maintaining the social fabric, wades
out to the barn TO feed his cattle
cattle" being New-E 1glandism for
a pair Of oxen-which he Jokes up
after getting his own breakfast.
His method of breaking road is
very simple. Under the front of an
old-fashioned wood sled, with long
runners, he chains a stick of wood six
or eight inches in diameter, slips into
the sockets sled stake or two, to
hold on by, mounts the sled and in
vites Buck and Bright to get up steam.
Now Buck and Bright deserve no small
credit In this matter, for beside gener-
ating the motive power for the sled
they serve also as snow plows, plung-
ing into drifts and breaking down the
snow to an extent that makes it COM
paratively easy for the sled to main
tain an even keel, so to speak, even
when the drifts are very irregular in
construction.
A little way down the road the high
way surveyor will perhaps add a neigh
Dor to his outfit, providing that the
