The kind that runs down stairs;

Or does it turn in squares?
It’s fun tq see the poets' stunts,
Helped by the typo men;
Just see again.

To keep the tame old gait;
They ought te break loose new and then
And keep ah evening **late."

If people were as stingy about

are about taxes for school pur-
poses, there wouldn’t be one of
these institutions where there are

four times as fast as is the popula

gated the question, and they blame
the strenuous, life idea and dis-
sipation for it. We get io too
greac % burry to get rich and worry
too much over failure. Even Japan,
Is becoming similarly affected
since adopting American ideas.

“No country I have visited bas
sneb bad roads as the UnitedStates’
remarked Robert H. Jackson of
Woburn Lodge, London, at the
Sboreham. - * — •
This is surprising to me, for if
there is any improvement a nation
can make that pays for itself, it la
the building of first-class high-
ways. I spent several weeks in
Indiana—at Terre Haute—and as
I am interested hugely in farming,
I made frequent trips throngh the
snrrounding country.; Some of the
roads were six inches deep in duet
and in the winter time; I doubt not,
this dnst becomes sludge. How
tbe farmers can get to market with
their crops is beyond me. Your
roads, wherever I have been, are
generally very bad. In England
we have excellent roads, as in
other countries of Europe.
“Road building and road hn-
proment are done through tbe
township unit system. Nearly
every township has one or more
steam rul ers and the cost of im-
proving tbe toads or building new
ones is borne by tbe property
orur' !n p:oportion to the valu-
ation of their holdings. Moat of
the modriu soads of England have
a tout? -iiicii of tWick—not theordK
nary brick, bnt brick of large size.
Upon this ^foundation is placed
several inches of soil and on top of
the soil blue stone, which Is ground
into the soil by means of the steam
rollers. This makes a first-class,
durable road that will keep in good
condition during all seasons of the
year. Over here most oT the roads
are made by simply turning the
turf and grading; at least that ia
how they impressed me.
“Farming too, is not done fn tbe
best manner in the United States,"
continued Mr. Jackson. “Yon let the
weeds grow too much. I wonder
what the people of this country
wonld do if they had the limited
area that we have in England and
had to depend upon the soil for
their prosperity?"
Mr. Jackson is an exporter of
potatoes and other products of the
earth and is visiting the United
States for the first time.—Wash-
ington Post.,
