The of the walk are flanked with 2x4 scantling, leaving the of the proposed sides and end wite walk in box form, having the tamped earth for a founda- tion and seantling for the sides, Two sizes of crushed rock are used. The first layer is of rock broken to about the size of pea coal, and the top layer is almost as fine as coarse sand, much of the rock being pulverized. The coarse rock and cement, in the proportions mentioned, are spread in a trough, wetted and thoroughly mixed by shoveling back and ferth. This mixture is then shoveled into the box- shaped mould, and thoroughly tamped, bringing itup to within an one-half or one inch of the surface line, The fine rock ls similarly mixed, and when ready for use is about the con sistency of morter used on ordinary stone work, This is smoothed down with a trowel and the edges rounded off. The concrete is divided into sections of from four to five feet by the use of half-inch strips of board, which are set on the earthen foundation and left come to within three-fourths of an inch of the surface line, When the walk is finished, and before the cement has thoroughly set, the portion of mixture above this strip is cut with a trowel edge. The idea of this is to have concrete blocks separated by their strips of wood so that the frost will not effect or heave the entire walk, but only a portion, which, itis contended, will sink to its natural level. Walks built in this way present a fine appearance, and can be sheaply constructed, ‘The estimated cost from eight to ten cents per square foot, hy 9 Ado IR LOCALS, C. C.

Hasheesh, Hasheesh, or the Indian hemp, is a resinous substance produced from the tops of the plant in India. Some au- thorities state that it is gathered by men who dress themselves In leather clothing and run to and fro in the hemp fields, afterward scraping off the resin from thelr garments, while other authorities say that it is gathered by rubbing the tops in the hands and aft- erward scraping the hands. Its nar cotie properties are well known. Old Ships In Norway. Norwegians have a primitive way of breaking up old, wornout wooden ships. They take them to exposed rocky parts of the coast and, after an- choring them, leave the breakers of the next storm to smash them to pieces. After the storm the floating fragments are picked up and sold for firewood. Anxious to Repeat It, Beck (despondently)-I sald some- thing my wife didn't lke, and she hasn't spoken to me for two days.
