it were something foreign to our home
life. 1t is not something that divides
us, but something that links us together
In fact, the highway should be our best
property, and the most beautiful. II we
have handsome grounds inside the
fence line, much more should they be
handsome outside They should be
not only clean and sanitary, but made
attractive and delightful to travellers
If every reader would remove from the
roadside all filth, and waste, and stone
heaps, and brush he would become a
public benefactor. Above all else, fill
up the little sink-holes where water
stands after rains until 1t sends out
poisonous gases. The street side should

same sort Of welcome that we extend In

The custom of planting trees along the
street Ia one of the most hospitable fea-
lures that characterize modern life But
we can do more than this. Many of our
shrubs are particularly suited to road
side planting. Think of the amount of
pleasure that can be given by group
of Judas trees. Tartarian honeysuckle
and American anonymous. Another
group could be constituted OF lilacs,
Weigela and mock orange. A group of
altheas intermixed with hibiscus plants
would be very suitable. | have been

double row. Where the street is mar
row, the trees might better be set in
side the pathway. and shrubs grouped
outside. 1t will, Of course, take some
time to bring about this ornamental
ton OF the street, because we inherit the
habits which were necessary before
stock laws were passed. Many OF us
can look back to the days when cows
and hogs were pastured in the high

DEVICE FOR LUNCH CARDS.
Arranging fer Fashionable Coun.
try House AGair in the East.

At luncheon recently given at .
fashionable country house the place
cards were prettily suggestive OF the
various nat.olalitiss OF the young
women guests, says the Chicago
Chronicle. Each card was an oblong
Of white drawing paper and painted in
water colors with bar Of music from
country, an appropriate bit Of land
scape being combined with 1t. Thus
the young woman Of English descent
had bar of God Save the King" on
her card, and above it a tiny hedge
with wild roses painted at the edge OF
a meadow. The German young woman
had the Watch on the Rhine" for her
bar Of music, and a miniature view of
the famous river and one Of Its IA
nous castles.
The girl who had a noted French
ancestor received a card having bar
of the 'Marseillaise" painted on 1t and
bit Of bridge over the Seine. The
Scotch lassie had Here's Health
to Prince Charlie" for her song, and a
tiny figure of highlander crossing
moor on her card The girl OF Irish
extraction had bar of the Wearing
of the Green" and border Of sham
rocks. The American girls received
Columbia, the Gem of the Ocean" and
sketch of the Reliance at anchor as
card decoration. Several OF the
girls were of New York Knickerbocker
stock. and a bar Of an old Dutch song,
with a sketch Of historical New
York locality, were cleverly put to-
gether to make up their cards. A bow
OF orange ribbon tied them.

Per Mile-ObstncIes That Had
to BE Overcome.

The two Americans who construct
ed the Oroyo road, Messrs. Meiggs and
Thorndike, were considered nearly
crazy when they proposed it, says the
Worlds Work
1t was necessary to carry the road
bed for miles through galleries cut in
the solid face of the rock, and the
workmen engaged in cutting the gal
leries were in many cases lowered in
cages from the cliffs above. More than
SO tunnels had to be cut in the course of
construction, one the famous Galera
tunnei, one and onehalf miles in length,
the highest engineering project of its
kind on earth.
1t is on this road that the signal
achievement of constructing lofty steel
bridge connecting two tunnels was ac-
complished. In building this bridge,
which spans a crevice SIS feet wide and
hundreds of feet deep, it was necessary
to lower all material from the top of
the cliffs by wire cables. The whole
stupendous task was made possible only
by the liberal use of the ~ switch" or
"switchhack." In one instance of the
Peruvian railroad it was found neces-
Sdry to construct a switChback in the
side of the mountain, the train heading
in on the lower level and backing out
through an upper tunnel almost exact
ly above. The cost Of the Oroya rail-
road, when completed, was si3 900 900,

DOGS BLOW THE BELLOWS.
Blacksmith In New York Adopts Novel
LnbOr-SnNing Device - Intelli-
gent Animals at Work.

On an uptown street on the East
side of the city, says the New York Mail
and Express, hundreds OF people daily
pause at blacksmith's shop to watch
three large and intelligent Newfound-
land dogs which are employed by the
brawny smith to work the bellows of the
forge of his shop. In one corner OF the
shop is wooden wheel about eight feet
in diameter and wide enough for a dog
to stand in When the wheel Is at rest
the dog stands in much the same posi-
ton as the horse in child's rocker,
with his head always turned toward the
forge awaiting orders. When told to
ego ahead" the beast on duty at once
starts on brisk trot, which makes the
wheel turn around rapidly and by means
Of crank and lever the power is con-
veyed to the bellows.
The dogs work willingly and with such
Intelligence that people are never weary
of watching the efforts OF the animals
to keep the smithy fires bright. Each
dog works in the wheel for one hour and
then rests for two. They cost their
owner about two dollars q week each to
feed. and he estimates that they save
him $12 week, as otherwise Il would
require the services OF two men or a
small engine to do their work.

SMALLEST STATE IN EUROPE.
Recently Lost It's Identity by neinR
Annexed to BelRium-Had Only
1900 Inhabitants.

Few people are aware that the
smallest state in Europe has Just
ceased to exist, says the Philadelphia
Public Ledger. The minute country
in question was neither Monaco, nor
San Marino nor Andorra, nor yet
Leichtenstein. but Moresnst-a small
scrap Of territory between Belgium
and Prussia, not far from Aix-la-Cha,
pelle. The independence Of Moresnet
dates from 1873, and 1t was only a few
days ago that the two neighbor!ng
states at last arrived at any agree
ment for its absorption.
Moresnet has now been annexed by
Belgium, while Prussia receives a pc
cuniary indemnity. The amount OF
the latter should be large, for neutral
Moresnet contained the most valuable
deposits Of zinc in the world. The
decision was fastened by the estab.
lishment OF a gambling hell there,
which was stopped by the Belgium
government.
The Inhabitants, who paid no taxes
and were free from military service,
will be the losers by their compulsory
incorporation in the Belgian kingdom.
But as there are only 1000 OF them
they could not resist the act of annex.

clined the dangerous gift OF a casino
they might have remained neutral and

FIERCE BAND OF INDIANS.
Some of the Curious Beliefs Concern
Ing Our Government Entertained
by the Night Hawks.

The Night Hawks are band Of In
dians in the Cherokee nation who are in
corrigibly opposed to the adjustment
OF tribal relations We gather from
story in the Vinita Chieftan the fol-
lowing beliefs Of these Indians: They
say they will not fle on their lands, be-
cause they did not enroll when the
Dawes commissioners took the census
They claim the United States govern
ment has nothing to do with them, and
that the secretary Of the interior has
no power, and that England will come
across the water and destroy this gov
eminent. England will bring suit
against the United States for them, and
that Uncle Sam will give them back
their courts, and that England, Ger
many, Spain and Cuba will see that this
is done.
They claim to have a secret attorney
in Washington, and that the president
Of the United States and Mr.. Hitchcock
do not know who he is They claim
their attorney is from London. They
say this country will never be allotted
without their consent. They pin their
faith to the old treaty OF 1857.
They say they have treaty with
Great Britain dated lit, on the 41st
day of February. Any one who reveals
a secret Is to be killed like dog. Some
OF them claim the Night Hawks will
be in Asia next year Those Of them
who voted this year are to be exiled
to New Mexico. Their lawyer in Wash.
ington will have the Indian agent order
the Indian police to remove them.
