Repairing the County Roads

Col. Baughman, who has al
ways taken great interest in
good roads, has just had the
stone crusher, owned by the Fred
erick Company, at work at his
farm getting out 1ine crushed
stone for the county roads. The
road from the Shookstown pike
to the Baltimore pike has been
given a coat Of fine stone, besides
the ShoOkstown pike near his
place. All this has been done at
his own expense. The stone was
gotten out during the winter Civ
ing employment to a number of
men, and the repairing has just
been finished. The road was
piked last year at a very heavy
expense to Col. Baughman alone.
Surely other farmers could do
something to better the condition
of our county roads.

A hearty appetite does not always
indicate a healthy condition. 1t is not
the quantity of food which is eaten,
but the quantity which is assimilated,
which determines the actual value of
the food consumed. If the stomach
and organs of digestion and nutrition
cannot convert the food into nourish-
ment, and into blood, then the food is
an injury instead Of benefit. For all
disorders of the stomach and its allied
organs of digestion and nutrition, there
is certain remedy in DIR. Pierce's Col
den Medical Discovery. 1t removes
clogging distractions. 1t strengthens
the stomach, nourishes the nerves, en-
riches the blood and builds up the
body. 1t is a fiesh-forming, muscle
making preparation, making firm
flesh instead of flabby fat. "Golden
Medical Discovery" contains no alco-
hol, whiskey or intoxicant of any
kind, and is equally free from opium,
cocaine and all narcotics.

On the occasion of the Christmas fetes

All the doors were thrown open and the
dancing began. Soon the gallery and the
dining room We're invaded. and then the
bedrooms, the doors of which were indis-
creetly forced by the suffocated guests.
Some sat on the beds and others ate ices
on the corners of the toilet tables The
late corners could not get in at all, but,
greatly amused by the indescrbabe tu-
mutt, they contented themselves by re-
manning on the staircase which led from

1t occurred at the opera house. and he
morbidly clings to the idea that the en-
tire audience knew just what happened,
says the Detroit Free Press. He was
there in good form, his wife looked the
highly genteel without appearing conspic
uous, and he was entirely satisfied with
the family representation until he wanted
to know the name of a very pretty and
fascinating soloist. He held his pro-
gramme close to his nose, held it at arm s
length and held it at all intermediate
points.

looking woman on his right to the young
er woman accompanying her, that he
can't read
Isn't it? And he has a bright face,

Can | help you?" asked the good-na-
tured matron to the right, still under the
impression that he could not read. She
went straight on telling him the name
of the opera, the tlimsy plot that carried
it, where the scenes were laid, and was
just discoursing upon the soloist in a
way that was unconsciously patronizing,
when the wife broke from suppressed
Jealousy into speech:
He can read all well enough, madam.
He's a college graduate for that matter,
and | can read in several modern Ian
guages: but he's proud and SO. That's

he has promised to pay this afternoon

there with you and ask him to send $50

radiance of bad suit could not be over

Pancakes shop, without preliminaries
the man said: ''You know that hun

A Useless Drink.

Frederick Villiers in his letter about
Magersfontein relates this incident: At
ter the battle he came on some of the
wounded enemy. 1.-The Scandinavian in
command had bayonet thrust through
his stomach and was dying. He signed
to me that he was thirsty. | lifted him
up and gave him a cup of condensed
milk A wounded companion lying by
his side said, in very good English: It's
no use to give it him, sir; it only runs
out of the hole in his stomach This
was true, but still the poor fellow had
the sensation of the refreshing draught
passing down his throat. 1t was his last
drink | can see his eager, hungry look
even now, and, though an enemy, | wish
| could have done more for him. A few
hours afterward he was buried by the
side of the heroes of the Highland bri-
gade London Leader.

English player has horror of empty
boxes and during his engagement at a
playhouse insists that these shall be kept
filed With his own wide circle of
friends the trouble of keeping the boxes
crowded is not such a difficult one as is
the question of who to invite.
When asked some time ago his reasons
for filling the boxes Mr.. Irving observed:
