A Re.oureeful Baden

An English artist while painting a

thought to play the animal practical
joke. Gathering together bundle Of
grass and weeds, he placed 1t inside
the mouth Of the hole and, igniting It
with match. waited for the ignomini-

made butt Of practical jokers. He
came up from the depths Of his hole

him that there was 6re on the prem

claws until all danger was past. No

Roads of the olden Time.

A curious illustration of the lack Of
any systematic authority over the
roads in England, even as late as the
fifteenth century, is preserved in the
records of the manor Of Aylesbury.
A local miller, named Richard Boose,
needed some ramming clay for the re-
pair of his mill. Accordingly-we learn
from odd Country lnns'-his servants
dug great pit in the middle Of the
road. ten feet wide and eight feet deep.
and SO left it to become filled with
water from the winter rains. 4 glow
er from Leighton Buzzard. on his way
home from market, fell in and was
drowned. Charged with manslaugh-
ter, the miller pleaded that he had no
place wherein to get the kind Of clay
be required except on the highroad.
He was acquitted.

Poisoning IL never likely again to be-
COM . fashionable diversion, as it was
from s,me to time in ancient Rome. In

to be particularly fatal to leading men.

them publicly in the forum as guar
antee Of good faith, persisted miser-
ably. Further informations followed,
and 10 matrons in all were condemn
ed. But this record was soundly beaten
