Our First National Road.

The first of our great national roads
was the Cumberland road, which ran
from the Potomac to the Mississippi.
Starting from Cumberland, Nd, it ran
west through Maryland, Pennsylvania,
Ohio, Indiana and Illinois to its ter
minal point at the Mississippi opposite
st. Louis. It was built by the United
States government under the supervi-
sion Of the war department. In order
to secure funds for the constant repairs
necessary congress passed a bill in 1922
ordering the establishment of turn
pixies, with gates and tolls, but Presi-
dent Monroe vetoed the bill on the
ground that congress had no power to
pass such sweeping measure Of in
ternal improvement. Two years later
he signed a somewhat similar bill, and
the road received the needed appropria-
ton. The last appropriation was made
by congress in 1874. Parts Of the old
road are still in use.

He Made It AVE."

It was the night Of Lincoin's first
election, and the little frame home
Of the Lincolns IN Springfield, ILL.,, was
filed with friends and relatives, all
eager for some news of the election
results. The reports for awhile had
been coming in early and favorable,
but after awhile they began to be less
promising. Mrs. Lincoln had been by
her husbands side all day. He now
insisted that she retire. The crowd
gradually began to dwindle. Then
came the news that New York had
been carried, followed Immediately by
the report that Lincoln had carried
the country. The rest Of the story
would be better told by the great man
himself.
..'When there was no longer any
doubt or reason for doubt" he related
afterward, II went up to my bedroom
and found my wife asleep. I gently
touched her shoulder and said, Mary!
She made no answer. spoke again,
a little louder, saying, Mary, Mary, We
are elected! "-Brooklyn Eagle.

slanoE At Annapolis.

For certain slang expressions used by
cadets I am indebted to a member OF
the corps. From this future admiral I
learn that a bird" or "wazzo' Is q
man or boy; that pap sheet" is a re-
port covering delinquencies and that to
hit the pap" is to be reported for de-
linquency; that steam" Is marine en-
cheering and to be obliged for juice
Is to fail in examinations in electrical
engineering; to get an "unsat" or un'
satisfactory mark, or even a Zip OF
'swabo," which is a zero.
Cadets do not escort girls to dances
but drag" them; a girl is drag
and "heavy drag or "brick' is an un-
attractive girl who must be taken to q
dance. A "sleuth" or "jimmylegs" is q
night Waterman, and to be ragged" Is
to- be caught. T. Mess hall walters are
sometimes called .'mokes,'' while at
other times the names of certain exalt.

The History of a Book.

Following is the story of the first edi-
ton Of Fitzgerald's celebrated transla-
ton of Omar Khayyam: -. 80! =
The book was issued anonymously
and found no buyers. Accordingly the
author went to Bernard Quaritch's
shop, dropped heavy parcel of 200
copies of the "Rubaiyat" and said,
"Quaritch, I make you a present OF
these books" ~? r.. >,o..s
The famous bookseller offered them
hrst athaH crown, then at shilling,
and, again descending, at sixpence, but
no buyers came. In despair he reduced
tho book to a penny and put copies
into a box outside his door with tick
ct, "All these are 1 penny each" At
that price the pamphlet moved In
few weeks the lot was sold, and in this
way one Of the finest gems of English
literature was dispersed among q not
overdiscerning public.
The legend has it that Dante Gabriel
Rossetd, swinburne and Burton were
among those who discovered the "hid-
den treasure in the penny: box" Years
passed, and the once despised volume
rose in the market, and In 1898 Qua
ntch bought In for Ell copy which
forty years before he had sold for a
penny.-London Spectator.

Located the Bodies.

As q means of locating the bodies
Of four United States soldiers who
were accidentally drowned In the Rio
Grande recently an unusual expert
ment was tried and proved successful.
A hat was thrown into the water at
the point where the men had last been
seen and was followed downstream
until, after travelling about five miles
from the scene OF the accident, it came
to an eddy where it moved, about slow
ly for some time. This gave the search
ers what they thought might be clew,
and, following practice frequently
used In searching for bodies, a charge
Of dynamite was exploded at the point
where the progress Of the hat had
ceased. Immediately the bodies came
to the surface.
The explanation Of the experiment
Is that the Rio Grande in this region
Is tortuous and has many eddies. The
searchers rightly assumed that the
bodies would be carried downstream
until they came to an eddy, which in
this instance was indicated by the re-
tarded progress Of the hat.-St. Louis
Republic.

Why We Walk In Our Sleep.

Roughly speaking, the mind is d.
vided into two parts. One controls the
actions of which we are conscious and
the other those which we do uncon-
sciously. In the latter class are such
things as walking and breathing. So
that the second part Of the mind works
equally as well whether its owner Is
asleep or awake. When the body or
the other part of the mind is tired to
the point of exhaustion or is harried
by pain the second part is liable to be
unduly active Then it is that we are
most likely to walk or talk in our
sleep and have nightmares" And be-
cause the acutely conscious part Of the
mind is dormant and not subject to
fears the sleep walker frequently trav-
erses dangerous places unhurt---Den-
yer News.

Drift From Country to City

u OTJIS FTou SOOUSTy ~ wy
Some further statistics as to; the
drift of population in this country from
the country to the city were presented
in a recent census bureau report. Fig
ures show that this drift has now COW
cred a period Of q century and q quar-
ter, or from 179O to the present time,
1790 being the year in which the first
census of population was taken. Since
that time the drift has been practically
uninterrupted. In 1870 cities were e1-
tremely rare in this country. Only one
had a population Of more than 10000.
This was New York city, which had at
that time 80, 131 Inhabitants. Next
came Philadelphia with 2Sy5OO, and
then Boston with 1890. In the en-
tire country there were only 3,929,214
people.-Literary Digest.

Europs's Longest Dam.

The largest dam in Europe is in

the old fortified town of Talarn. Adult
ting on almost perpendicular cliffs, the
dam is constructed Of concrete and
measures $50 feet in height and 700
feet in length. It forms an artificial
lake fifteen miles long and nearly four
miles wide. Its object is twofold-pro.
