mail. Since our prosecuted landlord
could not raise our rent more than the
lawful 25 per cent he thriftily lowered
running expenses by sending away our
bell boy. Levine, grumbling over the
extra work, sometimes brought the
mail around; sometimes he sent it up
in the dumbwaiter, and it was just as
likely as not to land along with the
wastepapers and slop pail into a
neighbors kitchen. The Lord knows
how many Of our overdue checks from
tardy editors have thus been lost for
ever. Though it must be confessed,
Levine's system brought joy to least
one member of the household. Eliza

We called him poor devil, fail

system, which seems to take delight
in knocking a man when he is down.

shall never forget how he plodded
after US that dull Sunday morning
when he first looked over his apart
ment. He took his duties as superin-
tendent seriously enough, poor Levine,
when they involved showing an empty
apartment or collecting the rent.
When it came to collecting the gar
bage on time or repairing broken
window lock, that was different mat
ter.
He was tall, slightly stopped son
Of Israel with sandy mustache and
pathetic eyes. Some thing dog-like
about them, you know, which made
you afraid of hurting his feelings.
The same sort of look which causes
some of us sentimental dog lovers to
refrain from flinging stone when
NANCY cur insists upon following us
down the avenue. He followed at our
heels very much like dumb beast,
too, pathetically anxious that we
should like the place.
We didn't like it at all-the dark
bedrooms just little larger than our
wife's best tablecloth, the too highly
decorated dining room and the living
room which did not seem to have had
any decoration whatever since the
year of the Worlds Fair. But we
thought we would like our superin-
tendent whom at first in our western
ignorance of New York's vocabulary
we called our janitor. For he was old,
little lame (he always limped more
when you put an extra job upon his
bowed shoulders) and Jew. With so
much rishus in the world, ask you
mustn't we be fond Of our fellow
Jews!
But, Jew or no Jew, it soon grew
rather a tax to be fond of Levine. He
seldom did what was expected Of him;
when, by chance, he performed some
duty, he always blundered and made
matters worse than before. He was
most erratic in the business Of call
ing for slops every morning, and,
when he finally did send his musical
cry up the area way, seldom failed to
berate our maid for not being ready
to receive him, which irritated our
maid and filled our hearts with mis-
givings; we were rather fond Of our
wife and the children and the family
silver; still we might have viewed the
loss of them with comparative COM
posure. But to lose our treasured Eliz-
abeth, who could actually cook little,
didn't object to children and was will
ing to work for US for only sixteen a
week, was blow too awful to conjec-
ture. In desperation we sought Levine
and bribed him with cigars not to an
ger her ladyship. He merely grunted
in reply-a most unpleasant habit.

JACKSONVILLE DISTRICTS.

Would Provide Good Road FOR Town
OF coodbee Which It Has Never
Had-Say Other Sections Of Par
sh Are Just as Deserving.

New Orleans. The question OF
building a road in st. Tammany par
ish between Covington and Hammond
has aroused warm controversy be
tween citizens of Covington and Mad
isonYille, as is evidenced in an arti-
Gle which appeared in the St. Tam
many Farmer under date of August
IA, and a reply from Madlsonville OF
the same date The question viii be
taken up soon at a meeting OF the
st. Tammany police jury at Covi4g-
ton.
The Covington arguments may be
summarized as set forth in the Farm
er as follows The proposition will
provide, a good road for the town OF
Goodbee, which it has never had, al
though taxes have been voted three
times for this road, collections have
now for the first time reached a sum
great enough for Che undertaking:
the new roa dwill cut in half a sew.
enteen mile stretch on the Tchefunc-
ia river which is not bridged, thus
providing direct route in place of a
round about one for travellers.
Other arguments set forth are that
the road has already been surveyed
between Covington and Goodbee, and
that the state has offered half the
sum for building the road and has al
ready advertised for bids on the
work. that Tangipahoa parish has
agreed to build and maintain and has
already gone far with preparations
for the part of the road which runs
into the neighborirg parish; that the
road would open up new valuable
farm and Embarrassing land and the
route of the road is laid on the high
est ground in the section.
Finally Covington supporters of the
road say, the promise of the Missis-
sippi Valley Highway Association has
been obtained to bring their 1000
mile drive over this route when the
road is built and the Federal govern
ment will probably make that high
way military road refunding some
of the building expense, and doubling
the width of the road.
Aroused by the plan as set forth
above by Covington supporters of the
new road movement, MadlsOnville op-
ponents to the proposal present the
following arguments:
First, they agree that the Goodbee
section has never had a good road,
but say that there are other sections
of the parish are as deserving.
They admit that three attempts to
raise taxes failed, but want to know
why other sections of the parish
should be asked to help one ward to
raise the money.
