There has been put to work on the
roads in the vicinity of Philadelphia,
a new and interesting piece of road
making machinery, which is attracting
attention because it performs several
operations at once. After one passage
over poorly-built or WORKOUT piece

pIaned, scarified, rolled and left in
good condition for use. The "once-

time. If a roadway is treated by this

THIS DEALER HAD REAL TACT
Stout and Thin Customers Use Special
Mirrors in Wearing Apparel
Establishment.

A dealer in wearing apparel, noticing
that his stout customers and his very
thin customers often we're sensitive as
to their figures, installed two full
length mirrors of special design, says
Popular Mechanics magazine. One was
slightly concave and the other slightly
convex. When stout customer tried
on a suit she was led to the concave
mirror for Self-inspection, and was able
to see her figure as it would appear
with its measurements reduced. When
thin person came in to try on clothes
she was taken to the convex mirror
where the opposite effect was pro.
duced.

blades on either side; as the machine
passes along, these scrape off the sur
face of the road at the sides, bringing
the loose earth to the center. The
scarifer cuts off the hutnmocks In the
center of the grade, which is then
packed down hard by the action Of
the roller. A feature of the rollers
work is that the crown of the road is
as nicely rounded as If done by hand.
Drainage is essential in road main
tenance, but it is impossible where
there is thick growth of vegetation
at the sides of the road. Three trips
over the road during the spring and
early summer not only place it in good
condition, but keep down this vegeta-
ton for the entire summer.
The apparatus will make roadway
80 feet wide or may be adjusted to
one-half that width. While its work
is most effective In rejuvenating an
old road ii may also be used for build
ing new roads in connection with an
ordinary tractor-blade grader.-POpu
