Hoad-Building Periods,
In an interesting article on "An¬
cient and Modern Highways,” by C,
L. Whittle, in the New England Ma¬
gazine, the writer divides the history
of road-building, as affected by various
uses, into three periods: One, Dur¬
ing the reign of the Egyptian and As¬
syrian Kings; two, Beginning with the
rise of Carthage, and continuing
through the rise and fall of the Roman
empire; three, Beginning in France,
with the roads “conceived by Napoleon
and executed by Tresaguet;” then by
Macadam and Telford in England, af¬
terwards on the Continent, and now in
the United States.
Financial JSenefits of Good Hoads*
The financial benefits of .'good roads
are numerous and pretty well under¬
stood by those who have given the sub¬
ject careful thought, but the questions
of increased convenience and greater
values must hot he considered of any
more importance than the civilizing
effect that passable highways would
bring to the community at large. Men
are gregarious by nature, and the freer
the intercourse between all parts of a
country, the greater will be its develop¬
ment, commercially, intellectually, and
morally.
We can be the means of improving
our highways and making them in this
generation equal to any in the world,
and thus leave to posterity a legacy
more valuable than fortune or fame.—
Colonel Pope, in the Outlook,
Cost of Traveling- on Bad Roads.
An illustration of the comparative
cost of hauling- over good and bad
roads is furnished by C. E. Aaliburne,
.Ti\, in the Louisville Courier-Journal.
The incident came under his own ob¬
servation, and the roads were in Ken¬
tucky. He says;
"A machine weighingl6,000pounds
was drawn four miles on the Brock
turnpike, a macadamized road. It re¬
quired four mules {4000 pounds to a
mule), and one-and-one-half hours of
time, at a cost of fifteen cents per mule
per hour, or a total cost for four miles
of ninety cents.
“After traveling four miles on mac¬
adamized turnpike the route lay a lit¬
tle less than 2000 feet (less than two
fifths of a miles) on a dirt road. To
travel this 2000 feet it was necessary
to une ten of the best mules and seven
men; and with this force it took nine
hours to complete tha journey. The
cost was $89.80, at which rate four
miles would have cost 8208.08; or, in
other words, $208.08 is absolutely
thrown away for want of a macadam¬
ized road.”
F.conorny of Good Roads,
New Jersey lias gained an enviable
reputation.for the lead it lias taken iu
improving its roads, and it is not sur¬
prising that the State has been selected
by the Postoffice Department for one
of its experiments in the practicability
of rural mail deliveries by carriers.
The report of the Commissioner of
Roads shows that this work is making
such gratifying progress that, as soon
as a few connecing links have been
finished, it will be possible to travel
on macadam from Jersey City to At¬
lantic City, anti from Paterson to the
Delaware River. The State Aid law,
at first opposed by the farmers, lias
won their enthusiastic support, since
they have learned that the additional
tax is far more than offset by the
lower cost of transportation of their
products, and by the greater frequency
with which city folk go into the coun¬
Some striking figures bearing upon
the cost of transportation have been
collected by the New Jersey Road
Commissioner. He shows that the
saving on a bushel of wheat carted
over good roads for five miles is
equivalent to the cost of 600 miles of
transportation by steamer or canal or
of 375 miles by rail. It costs $2 a
ton to liaul the farm produce of the
American farmer to market; and if all
the hauling were over good roads, the
total saving to the farmer would be
$600,000,000. The most expensive
part of the journey of wheat from the
field to the market is that portion
which lies between the farm and the
town or railway station. This truth
is becoming more find more widely
known, and the practical economy of
good roads is giving every year greater
impetus to the movement for the im¬
provement of these bands of civiliza¬
tion. It is to be hoped that the New
Jersey Legislature will pass the bill
giving a rebate of taxes to farmers
who use tires more than three and
one-half inches wide. The use of
broad tires may in time be supple
mentsd by the laying of steel tracks,
whicli will save four-fifths of the
power expended in hauling over even
an improved macadam road.
This New Jersey report should
make interesting and instructive read¬
ing' for the people’s representatives at
Albany, in view of the needed advance
in the matter of good roads in this
State and the introduction of the an¬
nual bill in Senate and Assembly.— |
New York Mail and Express.
Th© Tax Levied hy Bad Beads.
Mr. Clarence Boleman, an engineer
who was a delegate to the Good
Roads Convention held at Richmond
in 1894, demonstrated the cost of the
bad roads of that State to form an ag- j
gregate enough to raise the hair of
farmers who grumble at their taxes,
yet put up with the extravagance and
inconvenience of mud tracks over
which they do their hauling; The
population of Virginia in 1890 was
1,655,980; and it had only 689 miled
of macadamized road. Said Mr; Cole-
man;
“I have figured from the statistical
abstract of the United States for 1893
that our principal and crops of corn,
wlie%t, potatoes tobacco amount
to 1,265,,782 tons of 2000 pounds
each. I omit all other products, such
as lumber, minerals and other crops,
as an offset against that part of the
crops which may be consumed at
home, and taking 2000 pounds as an
average load and ten miles as the av
erage haul would give 12,657,820 ten
miles, which at twenty-five cents per
ten mile, represents $3,164,455 as the
total cost of hauling all products to
the railroad or market. Now if un¬
der the proposed condition of good
highways the average load can be in¬
creased to even 4000 pounds then we
are again paying each year $1,582,-
227.50 for our bad roads, lint if we
can haul the load of 4000 pounds then
we affect a saving in cost of $612,891,
and that amount must he charged to
the account of bad roads.
“Then taking the assessed value of
all vehicles in the State at $3,051,783,
and estimating annual depreciation
under present conditions at 10 per
cent., it is perfectly reasonable to as¬
sume that under the proposed condi¬
tion 5 per cent, would cover depreci¬
ation, thus giving another charge of
$151,586.90.
"And, finally, taking the assessed
value of horses and mules at $13,495,
932 and allowing that with good roads
can reduce the present cost of feeding
and depreciation of stock to an extent
represented by three per cent, of
value, we have $404,877.96. Then wo
may sum up the annual cost of bad
roads in Virginia as follows;
To interest on depreciation
laud...... ........$1,523,880 63
To additional cost of hauling, 1,582,227 50
To loss of time hauling.. vehicles. 612,891 00
To depreciation depreciation . 151,586 90
To horses and
mules..... • * * • «*-* • 401,877 96
Chargeable to bad roads.$4,275,463 99
"Professor Ely has estimated that
the loss iier horse per annum on ac¬
count of bad roads amounts in the
United States to $45, and figuring on
that basis for the State of Virginia we
would have 290,567 horses at $15, or
$4,358,505, as the cost of bad roads,
or $14.78 for eaehhorse instead of $15.
I have thought these figures too high
until I made these calculations, but
I am now convinced that they are per¬
fectly reasonable.
“If my reasoning on this subject of.
the cost of bad roads is correct, we
are losing in this State $11,713.60 for
each day in the year, or $2.58 per an¬
num for each unit in the population.
If we had the use of the money charge¬
able to bad maids we could construct
1710 miles of the best class of macad¬
am roads each year, and in fifteen
years our road system would be on
plane with that of France.
roads "AccordingJto these figures our bad
are costing ns $2,478,918.97,
more than the total tax collected in
this State, which, iu 1893, only amount¬
ed to $1,996,545.02. [This invisible
but insidious tax is none tire less fatal
to ou r prosperity because it is not
gathered by the tax collector. On its
list there are no delinquents, and
there can be no evasion of payment.”
No man who has reflected upon tho
subject, believes these figures are ex¬
aggerated. The cost in Virginia is
proportionally as great in Kentucky,
though we have many times more good
roads. But the whole State should
have its highways improved. It Would
cost money, but it would cost indefi¬
nitely less than the present; wretched
system of highways in most of the
counties. Besides, it would add im¬
measurably to the charms and attrac¬
tiveness of rural life, would check the
drift of population to the cities, and
would elevate the farming class in the
social and pecuniary scale as nothing
else can.—Louisville Courier-Journal.
How to Stop Coughing.
The following js from a doctor con¬
nected with an institution where there
are many children: “There is noth¬
ing more irritable to a cough than a
cough. For some time I had been so
fully assured of this that I determined,
for one minute at least, to lessen the
number of coughs heard in a certain
ward in a hospital of the institution.
By the promise of rewards and pun¬
ishments I succeeded in inducing
them to simply hold their breath when
tempted to cough, and in a little while
I w r as myself surprised to see how
some of the children entirely recovered
from the disease. Constant coughing
is precisely like scratching a wound
on the outside of the body. So long
as it is done the wound will not heal.
Lei a person when tempted to congh
draw a long breath and hold it until it
warms and soothes every air cell, and
some benefit will soon be received
from this process. The nitrogen
which is thus refined acts as an ano¬
dyne to the muenous membrane, al¬
laying the desire to cough and giving
tho throat and lungs a chance to heal.
At the same time a suitable medicine
will aid nature in her effort to recuper¬
ate,”—New York Ledger.

Rock That Changes Colors.
"While doing- some work up in
Eastern Kentucky anil Southwestern
Virginia about nine years ago I saw a
remarkable natural wonder,” said an
old civil engineer.
"Yon have, of course, seen ilie
chameleon, that wonderful little lizard
whose color changes as do the views
in a kaleidoscope, but I doubt if you
ever saw a large limestone rock that
exhibited an infinite variety of differ¬
ent colors with the coming of every
new season, Such a curiosity I
viewed in the Kentucky Mountains,
and i have never been able to satisfac¬
torily explain the phenomenon.
‘ ‘1 first noticed the pinkish-looking
limestone rock while surveying a pro¬
posed railroad line almost on top of
the mountain near Cumberland Gap,
and asked one of the men from the
Virginia side what caused the rock to
have such an unusual color. He said
in hunting he had seen the rock yel¬
lowish, blue, brown, almost black, a
dark red, nearly white and pink. He
said he didn’t know what caused the
rock to change its color, but Iris father,
an old woodsman, had attributed it to
the changes of the weather. I was in
the neighborhood about three weeks.
One morning, about a week after I
had first noticed the stone, and just
after a hard rain, I went to look at it
again, and found it was a dark brown.
The next time I saw the wonder its
top was black almost all over, and
looked like it had been dyed, while
the sides were of a greenish hue.”
Ethics of Sleep.
The ethics of good sleep should
form a part of household morality. It
is hardly an extravagant assertion
that comparatively few people, after
childhood has passed, know by ex¬
perience what perfect sleep is, and
satisfy themselves witlFa poor apology
for this most perfect refreshment.
Rising tired and weary from a dis¬
turbed, imperfect sleep, they proceed
to summon up lost energies by strong
tea or coffee, which in its turn again
interferes with perfect rest at night,
and this process of life, more than
mental or physical labor, wears wom¬
en out aud makes them prematurely
old.
“I have been reading myself to
sleep after retiring,” said a lady the
other day; “and when I have done
this for two or three nights I can see
that 1 look five years older.”
It is an experience that any woman
can verify, aud, conversely, she can
see that sleeping in a perfectly dark
and well-ventilated room brings bade
the contour and the roses of childhood
or early youth.—New York Ledger.
Whalebone Is Scarce.
Whalebone is scarcer now than it

A Good Dictionary For Two Cents.
A dictionary containing 10,000 of the
most useful words in the English language,
is published by the Dr. Williams Medicine
Co., Schenectady, N. Y. While it contains
some advertising, it is a complete diction¬
ary, concise and correct. In compiling
this book caro has been taken to omit
none of those common words whose spell¬
ing or exact use occasions at times a
momentary cated difficulty, even to well edu¬
people. The main aim has been
to give as much useful information as pos¬
sible in a limited space. To those who
already have a dictionary, this book will
commend itself because it is compact, light
and convenient: to those who have no
dictionary whatever, it will be invaluable.
One may be secured by writing to the above

In a recent article of uncommon
merit, a writer says; “The curse of
America is the wanton abuse of hon¬
orable men in high places. We are
driving our best citizens out of our ser¬
vice. The hardened politicians only will
be Left to conduct our affairs. Already
the men of culture, retin,ament and deli¬
cate sensibility turn their back on*itb
lic employment. It is unfair, simul,
suicidal.” This witness is true. We
know many men of uncommon gifts
who hesitate to accept pfcblic prefer¬
ment, because it involves the possibility
of being blackguarded as if they were
so many pick-pockets.

“I suffered the tortures of the damned
■with protruding piles brought on by constipa¬
tion with which I was afflicted for twenty
years. I ran across your CASCARETS in the
town of Nowell, la., and never found anything
to equal them. To-day I am entirely free from
piles and feel like a new man.”
