other things that they will look after as
well, more particularly the fawns, who
will as usual collect all that is due them

SOCIAL PRETsNDERS.
Various Methods Adopted I'm England to
Deceive the UnsuSpecting.

VARIOUS methods Adopted In England To
Deceive the transporting.
The ways of social pretenders arc
always amusing and often ingenious.
The query. 'Do you know the Smythe.
Hobsons" and the reply. "Oh. init.
mately; why L dincd with them only
two nights ago" are common every
where. though they deceive no one. In
England. however, there are special
forms and devices which are particu-
larry interesting. An Englishman
tells of certain ingenious friend OF
his who when writing a letter in

Through this he lightly runs his pen.
and then proceeds below sobCrly with

himself considerably in life.

Emeet on property vnIues.

DO State roads increase the value
OF abutting property? is a question
often asked of the Massachusetts com
mission. As partial answer, it can
hc said that information has been re-
ccivcd from distant parts OF the State
setting forth the fact that certain
farm lands which were ON the market
FOR some years, without customer.
Were sold shortly after the completion
OF the State road, and at prices above
what they had been offered for. As
there are neither steam nor electric
railways within several miles of some
of the pieces of property referred to,
il is fair 10 assume that the judgment
of the local informants. who attribute
the sale and the rise in price to the
State road, is correct
Although it is difficult to obtain di.
rect evidence rs to a rise in the value
OF property, there is no lack of tcsti-
mony as TO the value of the roads to
the users of them. From all parts of
