LOVE IS NOT BLIND.

Love is not blind, but sees through all
disguise.
And that is why we hear from day to
day
OF odd engagements causing much sur
And weddings passing strange in every
way.
"What can she see in him" the critics
say;
Love is not blind, but sees through all
disguise;
'Tis those who cannot use his Roentgen
ray
At whom love laughs and leaves them to
surmise.
find in YOU what all true lovers prize;
You find in me all | was meant to be;
Love is not blind, but sees through all
disguise.
And finds the charm--compatibility.
And so when comes the day that we are
wed,
Wen smile at those who think them
selves more wise,
And live to prove the truth of what we've
said
Love is not blind, but sees through all
disguise.

They Died of Plethora.

Chief Game Warden Reutinger was
telling a story a few days ago about
man whose judgment was exceed
ingly bad, despite the fact that he
was n scholar of many years thorough
training.
This man and his wife had deter
mined on n visit to relatives in a near
by city and expected to be gone for
three days. The man and wife had
bought horse not long since, but only
knew in a general way how it should
be cared for. The question that pre-
sented itself to them was what to do
with the horse.
On the morning that they departed
the husband put nine feeds, which in
cluded hay, oats and corn, in the man
ger Then the scholar placed three
buckets of water in the stall. He fig
ured that the horse would regulate
his eating, but he didn't. He ate it
all as fast as he could Any horse

the visitor was returning to Dunedin
the Irishman saw him down to the

New Method of Road BuiIding.


A novel system Of road construction
has been successfully resorted to in
Monmouth, Ill. The ground was pre-.
pared for 1t by grading and being al
lowed to remain so for two months.
1t was treated to an occasional scrap
ingso that it would pack evenly, be-
ing thus rendered hard and even for
the laying of a surface of brick, the
chief constructive feature. The first
thing was the setting of a curbing,
made Of two by six inch planks seven
feet apart, held by oak stakes eighteen
inches long and put down every four
feet. Inside of this was a five-inch
bed of sand, all evened up, and a single
course Of No, paving brick then put
down, a fine roadbed being thus OBJ
tanned. Outside the curb two feet of
crushed rock were laid, graded up to
make an easy approach, this plan in
suring way of eleven feet in Width,
and, as the earth on each side was
graded and worked there was alto
gether a width Of some forty feet, az

escape falling prey to snakes and
monkeys the tailor bird picks up
dead leaf and flies up into a tree, and
with a fiber for a thread and it's bill
for needle sews the leaf to a green
one hanging from the tree; the sides
are sewed up, an opening to the nest

American Oasis In the Midst of
a Foreign Environment.

Paris, like all great cities, offers won
derful contrasts. The American colony
is no exception to this rule for in it
one may find great dealsof wealth side
by side with grinding poverty. Stran-
gers on visit to the French capital are
apt to think that all of the Americans in
Paris are wealthy, because they see no
farther than the life of the boulevards.
The Cafe de la Paix and other equally
fashionable resorts where the Amer
leans with money mostly congregate
are high-priced restaurants. While
there are a number of permanent re-
sidents engaged in business or who
prefer Paris as a sojourn, there is a
larger floating population who come
and 90 and spend money freely. 'The
Colony" as it is called, is like little
village, having preserved many of the
characteristics OF life in America. The
disadvantage of belonging to it is that
everybody knows everybody else's bus
siness,. habit indulged in a restricted
environment
The American colony affiliates to a
certain degree with the English colony
but is almost entirely ignored by the
French; always a conservative people
they have built up sort of Chinese
wall between themselves and Anglo
Saxon nations. 20 ~
While protesting unbounded ad1nira
ton for Americans, they grudgingly
open their doors to them, and if they
do, it is with certain reservations The
Americans prefer the new portions o1
the capital, and those with an abund
ance of money dwell in sumptuous re
sidences on the Champs Elysees, the

ished rooms, eating, Bohemian fashion,
at not overinviting restaurants often
frequented by turbulent masculine
students. The club is not free insti-

During the initiatory stages of its ex-
istence Mrs. Reid was wont to make
good any deficit in the treasury and
even now with floating population
like that of Paris it is necessary for
some generous person to back the
enterprise.
