One Mnn'H ROnI Work.

''Thcre lives near my home," said q
resident of ROckland, Me, recently, "a
man named Edwin Mcintyre, who
leads hermit life and has a queer
hobby. One of the pretticst and best
kept pieces of road in Maine passes in
front of his lonely retreat. 1t has been
built by Mr.. Mcintyre who for the last
% years has, when not otherwise ell
gagged, employed his time picking up
rocks and stones near his home and
pounding them into pebbles, which he
has put in the highway. In % years
time he estimates that he had pounded
100000 stones and made them ready
for road use. The town authorities,
recognizing the value of the work, have
for several years compensated the man
by giving him his road tax. He claims
that he has already placed on the road
20 cords of these manufactured stones
Other towns in Maine envy ROckland
such a faithful ami skillful road build

ROSE TO THE OCCASION.

The American Girl, ~ Usual, Man
aged to Win the Trick.
A man who is back from Il visit to
Paris and Germany is telling a story
which ought to make the great Ameri-
can eagle flap his wings with pride. 1t
happened at a little railway station
in Germany, Grunenwald by name,
while the man who tells about it was
waiting for 4 train on q branch line
which connects with the main line at
that place. Besides himself there were
at the station n party Of American
tourists of the kind you read about in
English books and an English family
of the kind you read about in Amcri-
can books. The Americans were loud
voiced and ungrammatical. They laugh
ed n great deal and they ate peaches,
the stones of which they threw at a
post to test their craftsmanship. They
were persons for whom Uncle Sam
himself would have felt apologize,
and they displcased the naughty Brit
ish matcrfamilias greatly. To the
younger members of her family, a
gawky boy and a lanby and "leggy"
girl of the typical elongated English
yariety-thcy were objects of great in
tcrest, however, and the girl in particu-
lar edged nearer and nearer, to her
mothers great disgust. At last she
was so near that mamma could en-
dure it no longer.
"Clara!' she called in her loudcst
voice, come away at once. You might
be mistaken for one of those disgust
ing Americans!'
A pretty young American looked up
and swept Clara from head to foot
with a calm glance. Then she went
on eating peaches.
Don't worry, madam" she called
out cheerily. There's no danger of
that-with them Washington

4 Bold Defense.

the soldier for some fault or other.
When the cvidcncc-and it took an un-
usually long time-had been given, the
president asked the prisoner if he had
anything to say in his defense.

The Bad Roads Tax.

The average cost of hauling one ton
mile throughout the United States
is % cents. In the New England states
It is 81 cents, they being more hilly
and having generally worse roads. The
cost in New Jersey Is from to 10
cents.
The actual cost of moving products
Is not the only loss by bad roads by
any means. Farmers lose by not being
able to get to market when the market
