"Wcll, when my appearance inter-

Good Roads Save Money.

An Indiana engineer has made a
calculation in regard to the money
saved BY good roads. He estimates
that the cost of moving one ton by
horsepower over one mile of dry,
sandy road, is 81 cents; over wet sand.
32 cents; over ruts and mud, 80 cents;
over broken stone ruts, 26 cents; over
an earth road that is dry and hard Is
cents; over q broken stone road IN
good condition, 8 cents; over a CON-
pact gravel road, SIS cents; over stone
paving, 5.33 cents; over asphalt, 2.7
cents. The engineer argues that il
wagon transportation at a cost OF .
cents mile per ton could be general,
many millions Of dollars would be
saved, and millions OF tons Of mer'
chandise. which cannot be now hau-
died at a profit, would be available.

An Unfortunate Remark.

One pleasant day last fall, so the
story goes, President Hadley Of Yale
was strolling through the beautiful
campus of Dartmouth College with his
wife on his arm. They were admiring
the beautiful buildings which dot the

erected by wealthy alumni. Presently
they came to an especially noble nall,
built of stone, and occupying a com.
manding site. Over the main entrance
was q marble tablet which announced
that the hall had been erected by
"John C. Blank as a memorial to his
Beloved Wife" z-
President Hadley stood and looked
at the noble pile for moment. Then
he heaved sigh that was almost en-.
