Roads In Europe

Two hundred years ago England had

manifestly unjust 1t was not until
many toll bars had been violently
pulled down. until the troops had in
many instances been forced to act
against the people. and until much
blood had been shed that a good system
was Introduced
Every class now contributes to the
maintenance OF the road system in
England. The French have proba bIy
toe most efficient laws and regulations
in the world for the building and re-
pairing of highways. The Minister
OF Public Works has the general su-
pefintendence of all roads and WAYS
by land and by water. There are four
classes of road recognized by law
namely: ~ National, CD departmental
t3t military, (4D cross roads National
roads are built and kept up by the
National treasury. Departmental roads
are a charge upon the departments
through which they pass, and part Of
the military roads are kept up by the
Government and n part by the depart
ments through which the roads pass.
Inc cross roads are kept up by the
communes, though sometimes in the
thlnly populated regions these com
munes receive assistance from the
Government. especially when these
roads become of Importance
The National roads are paved like
a street, having an average width of
hfty-two and one-half feet. The de-
partmental roads are thirty nine feet
wide. and the military and cross roads
are of variable width. Piles of broker
stone are placed at convenient dis
tances, and u man is constantly en-

about Paris and begged aims of the

in MOntElartre, where he occupied u
tiny garret. for he had a fund of anus

But recently he was missed from his
usual haunts, and later it was known
that two policemen had found him
lying unconscious in the street. He
was over eighty years of age, and the
hospital claimed him.
AT the LariboiSiere the old man lay
dying. Just at the last he reused him

words, My pocketbook. my pocket

among the bits of rags that had

The Farmer and the King,

The Isle of Wight roads are all very
narrow. Indeed, it is only by hugging
the hedges that two vehicles can pass
III many. In one OF these latter, Chic
cells, the Kings motor met the other
day Il farmers cart. The driver being
nearly asleep, loud blowing of the horn
was needed to attract his attention.
Even then he was not inclined to take
his cart farther toward the hedge. The
motor slowly approached and was
nearly at a Standstin, when "Garge"
shouts out: ''Coome afang, guv-nor,
plenty room for they" Then the King

Colonial Papers Amuse Members OF the

The New York Historical Society at
a recent meeting listened to a paper
on History and Humor in Colonial
Advertising by Frank Warren Crane
Mr.. Crane drew his quaint examples
from such pioneer newspapers as Pub

ward 1.-The Postboy;" ''Bradford's Ga
zette," BENJAMIN Franklin's ''Pennsyi-

was ''The New York Gazette that
earned the title Of Lying Gazette" by
Its Loyalist sympathies during the
Revolution. Mr.. Crane noted that Col
onisl obituary notices We're short and
sometimes read like advertisements.
The matrimonial advertisement and
patent medicine advertisement are no
new inventions. Mr.. Crane read an
advertisement in "Rradford'S Gazette"
for May 5, 1856. in which discomfort
ed bachelor made his wants known
at some length. and specified the mini
mum fortune, in pounds. shilling and
pence, which would g:in his considera-

But the Two most amusing notices
We're those of - man and wife who
had disagreed. The first from the
husband. gave notice that he Intended
to 'abScond." and forbade any one to
give his Wife credit. as he repudiated
all liability. In the second the Wife
retaliated, with the explanation that the
separation was mutual. that she had
money of her own. and would. on her
part, pay none Of her husbands bills
from that date.
The merchants who lid the founda-
ton OF New York City'S commercial

The few survivors of the appalling
disaster at ST Pierre and its vicinity
have. 10 doubt, been impressed by q
sense of the instability of this little
globe. For more than n century il
has been predicted that the so-called
extinct volcano of Mont Pelee would
suddenly revive, and, with all the ma.
ltgnity of a long force, send
its stream Cf molten lava over the city
which has nestled so trustfully within
is shadow, states the Philadelphia
Record. AT Intervals there have been
ruLblings and mutterfngs, suggestive
of an internal struggle, but with the
confidence which is born of prolonged
immunity the people have scorued all
warnings. Their forefathers had lived
and died within sight of the towering
mountain, and they themselves had
been born and reared undisturbed by
the traditions Of pelees awful power.
This eruption, which has blotted out
the city and changed the face Of the
world to the survivors. has revolution
lied all their ideas of the stability of
the eternal hills and of the globe itself.
