WASHINGTON. Oct. 6-The Chinese

the diplomats are sitting back in their
Office chairs at their respective lesa-

ating weary welters of words to their
stenographer. Some of the product
is published and most of it is rot. for
tunately enough. Just at present we
are exchanging ''rourparlers which
is a word not III my bright lexicon
over the French proposition, Germany
having withdrawn hers and retired
into the back ground to think over how
il all happened. The state depart
ment is inclined &c favor the French
scheme, but two clauses call for mat
tiers not within tho imperial power of
the president; s;ationing a permanent
legation guard in Pekin and main
tanning garrisons on the road from
Tien Tsin. THESE must be left for

ROADS OF SAwDUST.
when Properly Constructed, and
Then Kept In Repair, They Give
Excellent Service.

Any strong, fibrous substance, and
especially one which holds moisture,
such as the refuse of sugar cane or
sorghum and even common straw,
fax or swamp grass, is useful in road
making. Spent tanbark is of some
service, and wood fiber in any form
is excellent. The best is the fibrous
sawdust made in saving shingles by
those machines which cut lengthwise
of the fiber into the side of the block.
Sawdust is first spread on the road
from eight to ten inches deep, and
this is covered with sand to protect
the road against fire lighted from
pipes or cigars carelessly thrown or
emptied on the roadbed. The sand
also keeps the sawdust damp. The
dust and sand soon become hard and
packed, and the wheels Of the heav-
lest wagons make but little impress
sion upon the service The roadbed
appears to be almost as solid as q
plank road, but 1t is much easier for
the teams. The road prepared in this
manner will remain good for four or
five years and will then require re-
newing in some parts. The ordinary
lumber sawdust would not be so
good, of course, but if mixed with
planer shavings might serve fairly
well.-Boston Transcript.

Cheap ana Durable Roads.

The problem of cheap and service
able country road has been solved in
the western part of Cranston. There
are about six miles of this road, which
was built four years ago. The old
country gravel road was the founda-
ton. This was thoroughly picked
and softened, and the macadam, con-
sisting of a coarse stone bottom with
finer crushed stone and dust on top,
was put on and firmly pressed down
with a steam roller. Not much grad
ing was done, and no attempts were
made at Strengthening. No care was
taken for sidewalks. The cost was
estimated at $1,000 per mile. For q
road after four years use with no re-
pairing or sprinlling, this appears to
be remarkably good. The town has
its own roller and crusher, and buys
stone of its own farmers.-W. Z.
Stone, in Orange Judd Farmer.

BeautIfy Your Door Yard.

No one can fail to see that a pur.
chaser would give more for farm
where taste has been displayed around
the house and outbuildings than for
one equal in acres, location, ETC.,
where no attention has been paid to
these things. But, aside from all pc
cuniary considerations, many reasons
are apparent to every intelligent per-
son why this work of house embellish-
ment should be done. 1t renders
home and whatever appertains to it
Interchangeable of pleasurable
thoughts and sanctuary of hallowed
association. This is an inducement
sufficiently powerful to lead all
thoughtful people to endeavor to rem
der every appearance in accordance
with good taste.-Cincinnat Enquirer.

AcrObatic.

After supper he procured his wife's best
clothesline from the back shed, fastened one
end of it to his st. Demands collar and the
other to the handle bar of his bicycle. Then
he went out into the middle of the road and
mounted. For about four rods, that is until
the st. Bernard esped canine friend, the
sensation was dreamlike, after that it be-
came one horrible nightmare. In despera-
ton the rider clutched handle bars, back
pedaled and fairly howled, until at last he
became sufficiently cool to call to the dog
to stop. 1t stopped all right, but the wheel
had motions of its own. 1t went on till it
struck the dog amidships, then it rose in the
air, sending its rider toward cloudland.
HIS head tried conclusions with the curb,
and when they brought him to he promised
his wife never to do it again.-Detroit Free

stornge for Root Crnnn.

Beets, turnips and carrots can be
kept in bins in the barn or cellar. A
Ayer of carrots and layer of dry
oats or corn, or even of sand, will keen
them at an even temperature and pre-
vent sudden freezing and thawing.
The same applies to potatoes or other
root crops. Cold does not do them az
much damage as warmth. 1t is when
they thaw suddenly that they begin 70
decay. Apples will remain frozen
without being impaired in keeping
qualities, but they will soon show the
effects of thawing. All root crops that
are kept just above the freezing point
will remain in good condition.

One of the absolute necessities on

without having anything that the
women and children can take out

en- can use are too often so old or so
slow that it is hard work to get any

en- something they can drive. They
