He brought me through arhttle gate

when the amateur Hippocrates actually
refused to pay more than half the bill
on the grounds that at least 80 per
cent of the cure had been due to his

Audacity and penuriousness could
hardly have gone further than this, and
under the circumstances 1t is not sur
prising that the physician not only in

at rest On his departure he offered
the specialist five shillings. and on the
latter pointing out that his fee was
two guineas. the worthy agriculturist
scratched his head and said that he
considered such a sum far too much
for telling a man he had nothing the
matter with him.
Another gentleman Of similar tenden-
cies. who consulted an ear specialist
was thunder stricken when he asked
for fee Of one guinea, as he averret
that scarcely three minutes had beer
consumed in the consultation. Thu
doctor pointed out that 1t had takeI
him over thirty years to obtain the ex

1t Is only recently through the efforts
Of the good roads agitation and the
work OF several experiment stations
and the office OF public road inquiries
that any marked improvement has
been made In road building in this
country. The telford and macadam
roads are now familiar to all. and the
steel roads that were first suggested in
1894 appear to be attracting greater
and greater attention Short sections
Of steel roads have been laid at Omaha,
Eeb., during the Trans Mississippi ex-
position and recently at Ames, Ia. and
ST. Anthony Park. MINI. These expert
mental sections clearly demonstrated
their usefulness for western and other
level states sparingly supplied with
rood stone or gravel. although as suS-
stitutes for the latter they are incom-
parably superior. Dirt and stone roads
for an object lesson were built in vari-
Gus sections OF the country last year
under the supervision OF government
