The diary of schoolboy at the close

THE HUNTERS FRIEND.

In hut on the side of a mountain
lived an old hunter all alone. He had
only one room, which was very scant-
lily furnished, and he cooked his meals
in fireplace.
You need not pity this old man, for
he would rather eat his food cooked in
this way than in any other. He had a
bunk built in the room about half way
up the wall, where he had to climb a
ladder to reach it, and when he went
to bed he covered himself with big
bearskin. Beside the bunk gun hung
on the wall, where he could quickly
reach it if it were needed. Across the
door at night he fastened big bar.
for he did not intend that anyone
should enter while he was asleep.
The old hunter had set trap by his
door, and one morning he found a
baby bear caught in it by the left hind
paw. He very carefully opened the
trap and took the little fellow out
Then he took Johnnie Bear, as he
named him, into the cabin, and very

SUPERIOR RURAL ROAD WORK
Suggestions to Communities for tho
Construction and Maintenance Of
Country Highways.

That full value may be received for
the money appropriated for road pur-
poses and that the best results OBJ
tainable may be secured 1t is essential
that the right man shall be placed In
charge of road work. He should be
selected not only because he actually
knows more about good roads than
any other person in the community.
but also because he can get the best
results from the money furnished. It
is not sufficient, however, to let the
matter rest with the appointment of
road overseer. He should receive
the whole-hearted support OF the COM
munity in the work. 1t should be seen
to that under the conditions and with
the money furnished the community
Is getting what 1t has right to ex-
pect in the way of road improvement.
1t is we'll to remember that II for any
reason an incompetent man is placed
in charge Of the work the RESPONSE
bility for failure rests upon the COM
munity. There should be no other
consideration. therefore. in selecting a
road overseer than that of securing
man with the ability to perform the
duties required. II should be realized
that good roads have much to do with
the prosperity of a community and
that united action in the right direc-
ton is the surest and quickest way to
secure them.

but little experience in road work, or
where some new and difficult problem
is presented to the experienced man,

Grape-Nuts shows it's power for it is a

About year ago." writes Kansas
woman, my little six-year-old niece
left the invigorating and buoyant air
of Kansas, where all her life she had
enjoyed fairly good health, to live in
Ohio. She naturally had change of
diet and of course a change of water,
and somehow she contracted typhoid

After a long siege her case seemed
hopeless, doctors gave her up, and she
was nothing but skin and bones.

did not know even her father or moth

thing delicate and nourishing that she
could eat, finally hit upon Grape-Nuts
food and it turned out to be just the
thing.
She seemed to relish it, was soon
conscious of her surroundings and be-
gan to gain strength SO rapidly that
in short time she was as well, play

The change in mealtimes iss evil
denced by the old rhyme:
TO rise at five and dine at nine.
To sup at five and bed at nine
Will make a man live to nnety-nine
But one suspected that the change
is In the names of the meals rather
than in the hours. Our ancestors
would have termed our luncheon din
ner, and our dinner supper. 1t is. a
curious fact that in some of the Ok
ford colleges, where the founders
made allowances for the meals of the
students, much larger sum is al
totted for supper than for dinner inn
plying that the former was the more
substantial meal Taken at FIVE or six
O'Clock. it was really early dinner"
Some particulars of the mealtimes
of our ancestors may be found in Will
liam Harrison's Description of Eng
land" published 1887.
With US the nobility, gentry and
students do ordinarily go to dinner at
eleven before noon, and to supper at
i've or between five and six at after
noon. The merchants dine and sup
seldom before twelve at noon. and six
at night, especially in London. The
husbandmen dine also at high noon,
as they call it, and sup at seven or
eight, but out of the term in our uni
versities the scholars dine at ten. AS
for the poorest sort they generally
dine and sup when they may. so that
to talk of their order of repast it were
but a needless matter" - London

the .split-log drag, is explained in
Farmers Bulletin 597, copies of which
may be obtained upon application to
the department
After the road has been crowned
and the crown is kept in condition by
the wise use of the road drag, it
should be seen to that bitches are kept
free from weeds, etc, and that they
are deep enough to carry off the wa
ter which runs into them. In most
cases a wide, shallow ditch is best.
Deep bitches are dangerous to traffic.
At spaces of every few hundred feet
along the roadway a culvert of some
kind should be placed to carry away
the water which has gathered in the
bitches.
A road properly built generally will
not have an average grade of more
than per cent. By per cent of
grade" is meant the number Of feet
the road rises or climbs for every
100 feet of it's length.

carefully washed the poor cut foot
and bound it up with some healing
salve.
Johnnie Bear seemed to know that
the hunter was helping him, and he
did not bite or try to get away. He
made funny little noise like baby
when it is hurt. Then the hunter
warmed some milk and put it in a bot
tie, witch he gave to the bear. John.
ME Bear took the bottle in both paws
and held it up to his mouth and drank
the milk very greedily. Then the
hunter fixed a bed for him and put a
log on the fire to keep the place warm
while he went for hunting trip.
Johnnie Bear slept all day, and
when the hunter returned at night he
tried to run to meet him, but his poor
foot hurt him SO he had to lie down
again. Several weeks passed before
Johnnie Bears foot became quite well,
and he always limped because the trap
had cut SO deep.
The little fellow became quite fond
of the hunter and would run to meet
him at night, and when the hunter
brought in his game, Johnnie Bear
would poke it with his nose and paws
as though to tell the hunter that he
had done well.
One day he did not run to meet the
hunter, and when night came he did
not come to his supper The old
hunter began to look around the cabin,
and he found the footprints of two
bears. One was Johnnie Bears, which
he could tell by the light mark which
the lame foot made, and the other
was of a big bear which had enticed
Johnnie back into the woods. The
hunter felt very lonely and looked
for Johnnie every day Sor long time,
but after a year had gone by gave
up hopes Of ever seeing Johnnie again.
A long time after this the hunter
was going through part of the wood
that was filled with bushes and vines,
and in some way his feet became
entangled and he fell, breaking his
arm. His gun fell some distance from
him, and as he went to pick it up he
saw big mother bear with two cubs
coming toward him. Sic was growI-
ing and showing her tecth, and the
hunter felt that he had little chance
for escape from fight He wondered
how the fight might come out.
He braced himself against a tree
and waited for the bear to come up.
He held his gun in his left hand, in
tending to use it to beat her off as
long as possible. Just then another
bear came in sight, and the poor hunt
Or gave up all hope. But all at once
the first bear stopped and looked at
the other bear, then suddenly walked
toward him. Both stood and looked at
the hunter, who did not move Sud
ienly the second bear growled strange
", and the first bear walked away
with the two cubs. Then the second
bear came nearer, and as he walked
he hunter saw that he limbed. It
