Every known means of locomotion is used, from men who, like oxen, tramp the tow paths. hauling the smaller barges, to powerful te.gs that creep along by means of an endless chain laid fn the bed of the canals and minor rivers, dragging after them at snail pace great caravans of heavy barges.

OiiitiU Out (tin foraerm A Writer in the I*>ostou Transcript gives this remihlseeDee of the I’ev. 1)1*. Elijah Kellogg of ilarpswcll. Me.: “One Sunday before his sermon the doctor announced from his pulpit: ‘The widow .tones' grass is getting pretty long. 1 shall be there with my scythe, rake and pitchfork at 4 o’clock tomor¬ row morning, and i hope every male member of the congregation will be there too.’ “The nest morning they were ail there and among them Captain Briggs, six feet two in his stockings, with a weight of nearly 250 pounds. ‘Par¬ son. 4 said he as they were working up the field near each other, ‘Pm goin to cut'your corners this mornin.’ “Now, l)r. Kellogg was a little man. weighing scarcely more than 130 pounds, imt he knew how to handle a scythe, and. as lie told me. with a-lit¬ tle shrug of fiis shoulders, ’he didn't out my corners that morning.’ More tlmn 'that, the man who had thought he could beat the parson at mowing dropped under a tree exhausted from working with such a pacemaker.” The Worst Paved City. Moscow is-probably the worst pav¬ ed city iu the world. Great cobble¬ stones driven by hand into a loose lied of sand form a roadway which is al¬ ways dusty in summer and muddy iu autumn, and in many of the roads there is no attempt at a roadway of any kind. The streets are badly wa- j tered and cleaned. The city is regarded by the Uussinus ns “the holy city.” probably because of the large number of monasteries it con¬ tains. It was once the capital of the J empire and still enjoys the distinction of being considered the capital of the interior, but there does uot seem to be any particular desire on the part of the authorities to make it more worthy or its title.

Ilo nao feelers, or arms, which were from 12 to 17 feet long and weighetl altogether pounds, it was calculated that he was big enough and st.rng enough to drag a two ton fishing boat under the surface by main strength.

Uncle Si. from Fpcreek. had just left an aching molar at the (Dutlst s and stopped at a lunch counter for a sooth tng beverage.
