Anticipation Worse Than Realization.

Antici patton Worse Than Realization.
Men are so unanimously eager in the
pursuit of things which, far from hav-
ing any inherent real good, are var
nished over with a specious and de-
ceitful gloss, and contain nothing an
swerable to their appearances. Hence,
it proceeds, on the other hand, that
in those things which are called evils
there is nothing so hard and terrible
as the general cry of the world threat

Paris Pattern No. 1850, All Seams
Allowed.-lf made up in heavy tan
linen, this little apron is very service
able for school wear, and it is SO
simply constructed that the woman

ing will have no trouble in putting it
together. The sleeves are cut in one
with the front and back: the only
seams being under the shoulders and
at the under arms. The wide sash
ends, which extend from the under
arm seams are of the material. The
square neck and lower edge of the
sleeves are scalloped and hand-embroi-
dered with red embroidery cotton.
The model may be developed to adj
vantage in Persian lawn or nainsook.
The pattern is in five sizes-one to
nine years. For child Of five years
the apron requires 21@ yards of ma
terial u inches wide, or rs yard
sc inches wide.
To procure this pattern send 10 cents
to Pattern Department" of this paper.

STARTER OF soARolNo HOUSES

An odd way OF making a living in
New York city is that OF the man who

but in tableware-silver. glass and

shrewd Judge, for his purchases are
made by rapid biding in auction

A scotehman's Gift, II Has Done Much
to Develop the Region.

W 0oNctop tUe NeStOHs
James Stevenson, wealthy Scotch.
man, gave $25,000 to build road oe-
tween the north end OF Lake Nyassa
and the south end Of Lake Tanganyika
In Central Africa about twenty-five
years ago. He was convinced that
nothing would help more to develop
Africa than good highways.
II has helped to accustom the ma
tives Of that densely peopled region
TO work for the whites, and to use
ca 'ico and other European articles.
The work OF construction was the first
instance on large scale of the utili-
zaticn Of native labor in Central Afri-
ca Many trained laborers now live
along the road and are engaged in
great lakes.
This highway is known as the Stew
enson road Mr.. Chrapkovski an OH
cial In the German service, who rec
emily travelled over the road has
written an Interesting account OF 1t.
He says that though nothing has
been done to maintain the road built,
twenty five years ago. 1t is still, with
the single exception of the road be-
tween Victoria Nyanza and Tangany-
ika, the best highway in Central At
RIGA. Az nothing has been done to
maintain the road it is now covered
with grass, but travellers say this is
really an advantage as the vegetation
has helped to keep the road from
washing, and II is also better for the
feet OF the carriers who dislike to
walk on those stretches where there
Is no grass. for it is as hard as stone
and hurts their feet.
The usefulness of the road is proved
by the fact that porters carrying 90
pounds on their backs make an aver
age of twenty miles a day while the
usual journeysis only ten mics The
road passes entirely through British
territory and the Government has err
ected station every twenty miles
where caravans may spend the night
There Is provision at each station to
put all the freight under cover, COM
Portable brick and concrete houses af-
ford excellent conditions for a good
nights rest and there are cook houses
where the meals of the caravans are
prepared One of the neighboring
chiefs is held responsible for the
and good order of each sta
ton. He receives a monthly salary
OF few snillings from the Govern
nlent and few yards Of calico from
each caravan passing over the route.
The road was intended and Is well
adapted for the use of wagons, but
the South African oxen
that were brought into the country
did not thrive there and the expert
me7t of using them was given up. AS
long as oxen were used large wagons
loaded with 5000 pounds of freight
and drawn by sixteen oxen made an
average Of fourteen miles a day from
one lake to the other
When the oxen proved failure, |
small carts hauled by the natives and |
carrying about 1000 pounds OF freight |
we're introduced, but 1t was finally de- |
.ided that transport on the backs OF |
men who receive only from FIVE to |
seven shillings month was cheaper, |
md now vehicles are seldom seen on
he road.
