The rise of Nicaragua is foreseen in

third of the country has been practi-
cally conceded by the government. Here
is a story, fit theme for novelist, of
the peaceful aggrandizement OF Ameri-

telephones are being built, ports and
waterways opened, schools and hospi-
tails founded for the natives-and for
what? That the privilege of develop

A QUESTION ANSWERED.

The world is such CHEEKY place
! If we but see it so;
That's where beauty everywhere we step
To set the heart aglow.
The air is full Of rhythmic joy,
| The blue shy throbs with love,
And every leaf and flower and bird
BY pure delight in life is stirred
Its ecstasy to prove.
The world is such sorry place
If we but see it so;
There's sadness in the skies above
And on the earth below.
The children weep, the birds are mute,
The flowers droop and die;
All sounds are tuned in minor key,
All sighs, but picture misery;
We wonder, wonder why.
How can we solve the problem-we
Who fain the truth would know?
How can earth be so beautiful,
And how so full of woe?
0, human heart, give answer, for
In thee that answer lies;
'Tis not for birds, or flowers, or air
To make life either dull or fair
Or prove its mysteries.
Life's radiance from within must shine,
It's harmony express
The aspirations of the soul,
The power TO cheer and bless.
'Tis love, love only, ih the air,
The sky, the birds the flowers,
That glorifes the common ME,
That triumphs over care and strife
In this sweet world of ours.
Emily Hartley in August Sunset Mag.

ROLLED ROAD OF SMOOTH, FIRM SURFACE.
these points are equal in volume to the
solid particles, and as a result the
earth will absorb almost an equal por-
ton of water.
In building or maintaining roads it is
therefore desirable that these small
particles be pressed and packed into as
small Il space as possible in order that
surplus water may not pass in and de-
strOy the stability of the road. To this
end rolling is very beneficial. The work
of maintaining earth roads will be
greatly lessened by the proper use of
the roller.
After additional matter has been
placed on the surface of the road it
should be carefully rolled and not al
lowed to wash off into the ditch. If the
earth is left loose wheels will cut in
and result in ridges and burrows,
which will hold water and result in a
sticky. muddy surface in winter wealth
er and dusty one in dry weather. If
