Roads Were Not Public.

A century ago all the larger towns
in eastern Massachusetts were to be
reached substantially only over toll
roads, or turnpikes, along which one
paid to pass. The roads were built and
owned by corporations chartered by
the commonwealth, and the fares, or
tolls, were taken up every few miles
at toll gates, which were usually es.
tablished on the bridges, SO that no
one could get by without paying.
There were turnpikes to Concord, to
Worcester, to Dedham and Provi-
dence, to Neponset and Quincy, to
Lynn and Salem, and to Newbury-
port. At the first toll gate out of
Salem toward Boston, $1,000 was
taken in the year 1905, but the day Of
greatest travel on the road was June
l, 1913, when 100 stages and hundreds
OF carriages went over the road that
their occupants might get a glimpse
from hilltops Of the fight between the
Chesapeake and the Shannon, in
which the dying Lawrence uttered his
mortal words, Don't give up the
Ship"

HANDS ITCHED AND BURNED

Warrenton, Va.-"My little girl was
troubled with eczema for three years.
Her hands burned and itched and look
ed as if they were scalded. She could
not sleep at night; had to be up all
night to keep her hands in warm wa
ter. She rubbed her hands and large
white blisters came full of yellow wa
ter. Then sores came and yellow cor
ruption formed. She could not take
hold Of anything with her hands. l

Russia's Hunting Bag.

The hunting season in Russia has
come to an end, and the following
particulars, says a st. Petersburg
correspondent, relate to the booty,
which has far surpassed that of the
preceding year.
The largest number of animals
killed are squirrels, which head the
list with 4,525,30o victims. The most
sought after fur is of course black
sable, of which 1920 were caught.
Last year a clear profit Of 100000
francs was made on sables, which
fetched as much as 1000 francs
apiece.
The remainder Of the bag" was
composed Of 100000 ermine, $500
brown bears. 10000 skunk, 100 blue
foxes and 1880 gray wolves.

MAST TREES FOR THE CROWN
Mark Of the Broad Arrow Was
Placed on Pines In Plymouth
Colony.

In the provincial charter of 1891,
under which the Plymouth colony and
the province Of Maine were united
with Massachusetts, 1t was provided
that all trees Of the diameter of "a
inches and upward at IL inches from
the ground, growing upon land not
heretofore granted to any private per-
son, should be reserved to the crown
for the furnishing of masts for the
royal navy, Harper's Weekly OBJ
serves.
A surveyor general of woods was
appointed to Sc that this provision Of
the charter was carried into effect.
Near the coast all white pines Of suit
able dimensions were marked with the
broad arrow"-three cuts through
the bark with an ak, like the track Of
crow. This was the kings mark.
Long after the revolution had oblit-
Grated the royal. authority men who
had been taught in boyhood to respect
the kings mark hesitated to cut such
trees.
In telling tree 1t was necessary
to bed it" to prevent it's breaking.
This was done by cutting the small
growth and placing small trees across
the hollow, so that there should be
no strain upon one section more than
upon another when the monster pine
struck ground.
The mast was hauled out of the
woods on one strong sled, whether in
winter or summer, and SO many oxen
were required that the hind pair were
often choked In crossing hollow, be.
ing hung up in their yoke by the pull
ing Of those ahead of them.
A mast hauling was great event
and everybody within walking dis
lance came to see it.

BLvEJAY LIVES IN WOODS
Hawks, Owls and Other Birds Are
leased and Tor'nented by
These Noisy Birds.

The bluejay likes best to i've IN
thick woods, but it often comes into
open fields, orchards and near dwell
lngs in search Of food When 1t dis
covers you it assumes a proud ana
angry air of conceit and defiance.
The bluejay's upper parts are pur'
plish-blue. The lower parts are pur'
plish-gray. The wings and tail are
bright blue with black bars. The tall
feathers are tipped with white. 1t
has a crested head.
The bluejay builds its nest about
twenty feet above ground. 1t is made
of twigs and fine roots. From four to
six eggs ara laid. They are OF a
greenish drab color hecked with
brown.
Doubtless the bluejay helped to
name itself, as its common utterance
is long drawn, Gay, jay, jay" This
cry, with the bright blue color, has
given it it's name.
While the jay sings no song 1t Is
eble to initiate the calls Of other
birds, by which means it often at
tracts them. 1t likes to tease and
torment the owl and especially the lit
tie sparrow hawk. This is done by
initiating the cry Of wounded bird,
which draws the hawk near. Then
several jays will dart at the hawk
squealing and frolicking about IN
great glee. Sometimes the play ends
In tragedy, for the hawk pounces
upon one Of them, to the dismay of
the others. Jays may be Gagged and
tanned like crows and some writer's
say they can be taught to utter words.

Barber Shops In China.

Since the Chinese revolution .
great many Chinese have had their
queues cut off, and this had led to tho
opening of large number of barber
shops throughout the far east wher.

men of Singapore, anticipating this,
imported large number Of Amer
lean barber chairs, and they are now
