Several days ago, during his absence,
q match boy called at his house, was
admitted, taken into the back office,
and the Doctors wife bought some of
his stock. The money was in closet
in company with an articulated skele-
ton, which wes disclosed as soon as
the door was opened.
The boy took one look at the grin
ming horror, and fed from the house,
leaving both money and matches.
This was related to the doctor, and
several days afterward the same boy
was seen passing the house.
On the doctors attention being
called to the fact, he went to the
door and beckoned the lad to come to
him. Holding his fingers to his
nose in very expressive but vulgar
manner, the match boy shouted out:

Jacques de Keroualles did not

The Ori1in Of MI. and MIS-.

In earlier times the ordinary man was
simply William or J~ohn-that 10 to say, he
had only q Christian name without any
kind of "handle" before it or surname
after 1t, says the Philadelphia Record.
Some means Of distinguishing one John
or william from another John or William
became necessary. Nicknames derived
from a mans trade or his dwelling plaos
or from some personal popularity were
tackled on to his Christian name, and plain
John became John Smith. AS yet there
were no "misters'' in the land.
Some John Smith accumulated mora
wealth than the bulk Of his fellowsEbe'
came perhaps o landed proprietor or an
employer Of hired labor. Then he began
to be called in the Norman French OF tho
day the "maistre" Of this place or that
of these workmen or of those.
In time the "Inaistre," or "maister,"
as 1t soon became, got tackled on before
his name, and he became Master smath
and his wife was Maistress Smith.
Gradually the sense Of possession was
lost sight Of, and the title was conferred
npon any kindly mere possession or
wealth or holding some position OF mors
or less consideration and Importance.

The legislature appropriated $4,000
for road improvement this year, and
In the three years in which road I'm

GOOD ROADS DEPARTMENT.
Commerce and Transportation MA
Hov. p1oce Tn Cabinet.

Commerce and Transportation may
Have Place In Cabinet.
Good road enthusiasts are confident
that the bill providing for the creation
of a new government department WILL
be passed at the coming session OF con-
gress. The measure, as, proposed and
as it will be backed by the good roads
people, provides for the establishment
Of a department of commerce and
transportation or commerce and public
works. 1t is intended to establish un-
der its direction a bureau Of good
roads. At present the bureau Of public
road inquiries is under the department
Of agriculture. 1t is also the Intention
to place bureaus now under the direc-
ton of the interior and treasury de-
partments under the proposed depart
ment of commerce. President Moore
of the National Good Roads associa-
ton recently said:
II have talked with q great many
members Of congress this summer,
with the result that I am confident the
new department will be created at the
next session. Every senator and repre-
sentative I have seen favors it.
Heretofore the politicians have not
understood the situation, but now they
are getting their eyes opened. The
people are also beginning to see some
thing must be done toward building
permanent good roads. Our mission Is
to educate, and in establishing this de-
partment and making a liberal appro-
priation for it the government will also
be educating. No one expects the gov
eminent to build the roads. Such q
proposition would be foolish. The gov
eminent can, however, build sample
roads and thereby let the people know
what the advantages are. The states
must build the roads.
1.-THE railroads are interested In 8
movement for good roads because they
realize good roads are essential to their
interests. At present shipments prac'
tically stop in a large part Of the coun'
try for five months every year because
the farmers cannot get to the railroad
stations. The result Is the railroad
companies must tryto have cars enough
to carry the business when the farmers
can get to the stations. This compelf
them to keep. large numbers Of carr
idle much Of the time, and as they
don't. want to maintain any more roll
Ing stock than is absolutely necessary
they are usually short Of cars when thu
rush comes. With good roads all ove1
the country the traffic would be dis
tributed through twelve months OF thu
year. This is the reason the railroads
want good roads,"

ROAD g IN OHIO.

IMPROVEMENT Does Net Keep Pace
with tho Demand Of tho Times.
Ohio has by no means kspt pace IN
the matter Of roadbuilding throughout
the country districts either with the
progress made in steam railways or In
the improvement Of city streets, where
within the past twenty-five years the
old macadam and bowlder thorough
fares have given way almost entirely
to the more perfect and lasting granite,
brick and asphalt, says the Cincinnati
Commercial Tribune.
It ts true there Is in this state q Law
which enables the townships through
out Ohio to improve their road system.
known as the free turnpike Law, and 1t
has done wonders for the common
roads of the state during the twenty
five years or more that 1t has been In
force. Perhaps a few other states have
similar laws, but they are not general.
The ordinary country roads throughout
the country generally are, as they have
always been, things to avoid in the sea-
son of freezing and thawing, during
which they are usually impossible.

Road Prosress In Tennessee.

Judging from the enthusiasm which
attended the recent annual meeting OF
the Tennessee Good Roads association,
much work In the improvement Of
highways will be accomplished IN that
state next year. The convention was
not content with academic discussions
Of the advantages Of good roads, the
best material for roadways and the
like, but took practical steps toward a
realization Of the ideals. To secure
united action throughout the state and
to build up an organization which
would be strong enough to demand leg
islation each county court was urged
to send three delegates to each annual
meeting Of the State Roads association.
It was decided also to ask the legisla-
ture for the appointment Of a state en-
gineer to consult with county super.
intendents in the matter Of roads and
bridges and for legislation which would
permit the employment Of jail inmates
