Coed Roads Are Uaglly Moane@1AeQs
s'The great secret Of success in road
making and bookkeeping - TO drain
the roads. and keep the roads drained
BY keeping the ditohes open" writes
John 0ilmel Speed ON How to Fave
Good Country Roads," In the August
Ladies' Home Journal. The old
method was to run pillow through the
side bitches and throw the disturbed
soil, sod and all. in the middle OF the
road. There it would stay till heavy
rain came to wash this soil back into
the bitches and all them up again. Il
there were money enough this kind OF
thing would be done over and over
again, as often as four times in q year.
Where there was wet spots broken
stones or gravel would be placed in the
road and left for the passing wagons to
wear this metal into ruts. The money
spent was absolutely thrown away.
''By the new process all the road
member needs to do is to provide ditches
and outlets for them, and then to
shape tho road that the. water falling
in rainstorm will run of at once into
the bitches. The water must not be
suffered to run in the road, but of the
road. The rainfall, being thus simply
and effectively disposed of. becomes .
most beneficial instead of destructive
agent; it cleans. aud shapes. and hard
ems the roadway; instead of washing it
away and deepening the ruts. When
there are vet places, such as springs,
In the roadway. gravel and broken
stones will not cure such things. The
water must be drained of underneath
the roadway and into the bitches by
means of pipe OF blind drains. The
whole thing is 30 simple that any one
can easily master the principles and
put the details into practical opera

MIR EDIroR:--It seems to me that
ynu give these itinerant evangelists
tno much praise. Some of the best
cvangclis's that ever sowed the
good seed II the Word Of God have
been local pastors, who did nothing
very striking and startling, but simply
followed this wise counsel Of st. Paul
"a all minister's OF the Gospel: "Do the
work of AN evangelist, make full proof
Of thy ministry"
II these itinerants are really as useful
as the reports would Indicate, the whole
town would long ago have been In the
household Of faith, judging from the
number of new converts claimed at
the revival meetings.
The striking part of these evangelists
is their dramatic way Of making con
verts. II they would depend less on the
sensational. the exciting and the extra
ordinary and more on solid instruction,
s. me Of us would not find IL so difficult
to rejoice with them. There Is not SO
much difference between making one a
Christian and making one mathemati.
clan ms some would dream. The main
thing in both cases is to be instructed
| in the science. Now the handbook oI
Christianity is the Bible, and to become
Christian is to learn to follow it's in.
spired contents. 1t sis profitable fot
doctrine, for reproof, for correction
for instruction in righteousness"
Where are all these new converts
now that have been reported IN the las,
twenty years? Why, there are moi
enough in town now to support the
churches without an occasional festival
to open their purses.
