TIE first great American highway.
that between New York and Philadel-
phia, was long known as ''the old York
road" Its construction in I'LL was
an example which led the colonists ut
other points along the Atlantic sea-
board to construct similar roads where
there were no water routes. They
were usually built by chartered COM
panies and were called turnpikes or
toll roads. Pennsylvania. Connecticut
and New Jersey had many roads OF
the kind. The first macadam road in
America was built in 1892 between
Philadelphia AMI Lancaster. In ISL
there were said to be 1850 miles OF
chartered turnpikes in New England
and New York. During the next TWEEN
ty years the national government
spent many millions Of dollars in con-

Cordite is the outcome Of the strange
paradox that if you mix together two
powerful explosives the result is 4
smokeless slow burning powder. Nj
trOglycerin and gun cotton mixed to-
gether with little petroleum jelly
make cordite. 1t is curious to see the
two deadly explosives being kneaded
together into q paste by women with
the same uncOncern as dough is knead-
cd for bread Indeed. machines SINH

the thickness Of which is varied ac-
cording to the weapon i'm which it is
to be used.
For big guns cordite is half an inch
thick and cut into lengths of thirty
seven inches. Rather more than 4
thousand of these cordite sticks pack
ed in two bundles make up the car
fridge for n twelve inch gun. For the
rifle cordite is pressed into 4 very thin
string. like the finest macarOni. and
sixty of these strands one inch and Il
half long make the neat little bundle
which lies inside the cartridge case.
For some European armies cordite is
made in fat thin strips like whale

ELITE STUDIO
Saley's Old Stand
Fooled the Poor Savaaes.

Robert Louis Stevenson used to re-
late the following amusing story told
him by a south sea trader. He had
been in the habit Of carrying all sorts
Of timed meats, which the natives
bought with avidity. Each tin was
branded with u cOlOred picture-a COW
for beef, a sheep for mutton and a
fish for sarGlines. 1t happened that the
firm which furnished the mutton
thought it a good plan to alter its
labels. that its goods might be more
easily distinguished from the Others.
The mark chosen was the figure of a
frock coated Stiggins-like individual
in q chimney pot hat. The natives ut
once came to the conclusion that the
tins contained pOtted missionary. and
there was Il great run on the new line
Of goods.

A Good Way 70 Cook Trout.


Build your fire and let it burn until

Upon this base lay balsam twigs till
you have u layer from six to ten
inches thick. Now put your trout In Il
row upon this layer and cover with
another layer Of equal thickness. Over
all lay ashes and hot stones. Then
smoke your pipe for. say, twenty min
utes. When ut last You gently remove
the coverings you will think ut first
that the trout have not been cooked at
all. There they lie in all their moist
beauty, colored as when they first
came to your basket. Bat be careful
how you handle them or they will fall

Holland 1t was attacked. as innova-
lions commonly are. Mr.. Gilbart in
his History and Principles Of Bank
ing" quotes from a pamphlet publish
ed in 1876. entitled The Mystery Of
the New Fashioned GOldsmiths or
Bankers Discovered" a passage that
may he reproduced:
"Much about the same time-thc
time Of the civil commotion-the gold
smiths Tor new fashioned bankers) be-
gan to receive the rents Of gentlemen's
estates RENTED to town and to allow
them and others who put cash into
their hands some interest for It II It
remained but q single month In their
hands or even a lesser time. There
was a great allurement to put money
into their hands. which would bear
interest till the day they wanted IT..
and they could also draw it out by
flOO or ESQ. etc. ut n time rs they
wanted it with infinitely less trouble
than if they had lent 1t out on either
real or personal security. The conse-
quence was that it quickly brought \
great quantity Of cash into their
hands. SO that the chief or greatest Of
them was now enabled to supply
Cromwell with money In advance on
the revenues as his occasion required
upon great advantages to themselves"
