XVTu u the ladies seriously take hold of a. project, it i - pretty safe to assume that tliey will succeed. But it is as village improvers tliat they have never been known t<> fail v. hen onee they started lu. A c ase in point is the trans formation w Oxford, an old town in the interior of Now York. Three parks were set apart by the pioneers originally, but after I<X> years tliey were little icgarded by the people then living within sight of them. They were overrun with weeds aud brush. Trees began to grow promiscuously in one, while the lines of another were broken down, and It became a mud hole. One afternoon two women were look ing out on the plot called Lafayette square. A 111 11«• stream was stagnating through its center. Drivers and pedes trians had no consideration for the struggling grass. Tin' two talked with other women, and a meeting of women was called to devise ways and means of improving the village. A permanent organization was formed, and a president, vice pres ident, treasurer and secretary were elected. A board of directors and an executive committee were also appoint ed, and a constitution and bylaws were adopted. Organization was perfected in Sep tember, the objects of tl»e society were made known throughout the commu nity, ami the work of improving the village began at the home of each of the 20 members. The majority of the people said, "You can never accomplish anything." Hut the women entered en thusiastically upon their enterprise. They wrought changes in their own dooryards. They exchanged "slips" of hardy plants, purchased the roots of in expensive but pretty shrubs. By order ing together and purchasing at whole sale they were able to save much. All orders were shipped to the president of the society, and the expressage on individual packages was saved for the purchase of more shrubs. It was an aggressive campaign. The rubbish which ha J accumulated in the corners of the fences was clear* <1 away. Old fences were replaced by new ones or repaired or removed en tirely. The women made beautiful lawns about their homes and planted vines to spread over walls and fences. Ornamental shrubbery was set out; pretty evergreen or deciduous trees were procured from the forest near by and set in rows where the crumbling fences once stood. New sidewalks were laid. As the village was noted for its deposit of bitter-tone, handsome stone walks were pio: hi <1 cheaply. As soon as these were laid it was seen to be essential that wide gutters should be made, and with the gutters came grad ing the streets and removing weeds and stones. Attention was given to back door yards that faced the railroad. Weeds aud brush had overrun them, and they had become a dumping ground. Hack doors and barns which had never known a coat of color were painted, and the weather beaten, tum ble down board fences were replaced by neat white pickets. A subscription was finally started for funds to restore the parks. People were asked to give anything from a cent up. A New England supper was given, and It proved to be so pleasant and success ful that it lias been repeated annually. The society was able to swell the con tributions by the proceeds from a series of entertainments, embracing concerts, theatricals and lectures, which found ready favor. These also were found so profitable in every sense that they have been continued. The money having finally been raised, a committee of three was appointed to arrange for grading and curbing La fayette square, the dimensions of which were 180 by <l2 feet. A handsome foun tain was given as a memorial to a for mer resident by his sons at a cost of SI,OOO and was formally dedicated to the village. The expense of the grad ing, curbing, setting the fountain and the village. Washington park was next made de lightful. Graveled walks were wound through it, in place of aggressive weeds lawn grass seed was sown, ground was spaded up and cultivated plants set out; mountain ash, weeping willow and balsam trees were placed here and there, and wild clematis and atnpelop sis were so planted that they would in time overrun the tops of these trees. Hollyhock trees were secured, and as ters, hydrangeas and wild roses were arranged in pretty vistas. Finally fall en aud decayed timber, stumps, weeds and rubbish were taken from Fort II ill park, which was covered over with rich soil and seeded down and is now nil attractive green plot of three-quar ters of an acre surrounded by a tine curbing. The three parks are <;. red for at comparatively "mall expend: .re.

The women got to work, clear ed the old cemetery of debris and reset the ancient shafts, uet-ioving the ashes of some of the forefathers of the ham let to the new and handsome burial grounds on the hill across the river. The grass is now mowed regularly, the wild brambles are subdued, and thv place is honored as It should be. SonpMiHl* DcMfrt. The tribes on the coast of British Co lumbia hold a festival In the autumn, the crowning item of which is the par taking of a few spoonfuls of a bowl of soapsuds. They gather in the dingy huts, which arc hung with the staple food—dried salmon. For light they stick into the ground, head downward, a silvery fish about five inches long, set fire to the tail, and tliey have a torch, for the fish burns steadily. After eating of various unsavory foods there comes the great treat. This Is a bowl of a frothy, soapy mixture, obtained by crushing in a notoverclean manner the sapoliti, or soap berries, and squeezing out the juice. This Is as much li e soapsuds as it is possible to conceive. The natives sip it from spoons of black wood, neatly carved, of which tl;t y think a great deal. <>l :! i Ah it ii tin nee. **Tonr m Ighl i 1 .i t me *a eld ci a' " ! the trim.p.

OUR WEATHER CODE. 01111 Words I himl to Save Kipen** unit Time in Tcleiiruplii an. "Indianapolis Detail Kugbolt < a I'.ufority —Clubfoot Fade — V.." This is the message sent out fn .11 the weather bureau on the last day of February. The message trans la! ! ;• "barometer, 30.1-1; temper ature. ::j: afternoon rep »rt. snowfall .IS - southeast wii.ds with snow—velocity of wind tin miles an hour—maximum temperature :;s nimbus clouds entirely covered blowing from the east total amount of precipitation 1.(10 and mean temperature -1 two inches of snow." This is the weather report for Feb. 28, which was placed 011 the wire and sent to Washington and other weather observatories throughout the Fnited States. The condensation of the report into cipher accomplishes two purposes. It reduces the cost of trans mission and saves time. The intricacy of this code can only be conjectured when the great vocabu lary it has to cover is considered. The system is so arranged that the vowels each have a certain value, representing a decimal, a unit of ten, similar to the metric system of calculation, and their power is denoted by their relation to consonants placed before or after the vowel. This cipher does not apply to all the code, as certain expressions have their individual word. The code for these words is alphabetically clas sified for the convenience of the clerks and observers, as their infrequent use does not allow a familiarity that makes it possible to read at sight, but they have to be translated by the aid of the key. In the message "yaf" rep resents two inches of snow, and an other combination of letters beginning with "y" designates a different pre cipitation of snow. Few messages are alike. A large sheet is received at the weather bu reau each evening shortly after 8 o'clock beariifg the reports in cipher of observatories in various parts of the country. A code message from Memphis received ou the same day that the above was sent from Indian apolis reads in cipher, "Barmaid—Ly den Mean I'.arnable —'Winnow—Ceu- taph I'er feet—Forgave." Translated it reads, "Barometer, 30.1 ii; tempera ture, 52; afternoon report, .'-4 inches precipitation fell during 12 hours from 8 a. m.to 8 p. ut. —south wind and cloudy weather velocity of wind ten miles an hour, with maximum temper ature 62 thunderstorm beginning at 2 p. 111. and running for three hours—.B alto stratus clouds front the southwest —west wind blowing 111 miles an hour —total mouth precipitation, l.bo inches; average temperature, 42." In many respects the message is sim ilar to the tirst one, but 111 * cipher is entirely different, showing no apparent likeness. So the messages read all the way down the page, and a clerk can take each of them off without hesita tion except when the rare code is reached. ; nd then if the- translation is not accou ; 1 shed after a mo::n t's study it i• iaires but a few s- Is to find it in the key and go > • he 0!... >'i".. and cl • ' < r a . - <i d- Ing of . i.ese dp't " , us . .al matters and recognize the temperature in "barmaid" or the temperature of precij Station in "clubfoot" at a glance. lndiauap. lis Journal.

POINTS A 6 TO MAINTENANCE AND IMPROVEMENT. MneTi Can lie Accompllslied InVel- IlKent Supervision Hoiml («uurd» SuKKented —I hcli'nn ltriio.tr Masterf ul— Itond Maeh i nt*». There is no question that so vexes the minds of the executive officers of our country towns as that of how to best care for the public roads, says C. P. Augur of Connecticut in New Eng land Homestead. They know that only a certain amount of money will be ap propriated for the purpose, and tliey are well aware ihat they will be held to a strict account for Its expenditure. Except In a few instances, where Iso lated patches of improved roads aro laid down with the help of the state appropriation, the work is very Imper fcctly done, and the material used Is worthless for the purpose. Often the men in charge of road repairs know that the slipshod methods employed are poor economy, but the fear of ad verse criticism, perhaps loss of office, if this year's expenditure exceeds that ! -•» *■" \ V^ A VILLAGE HIGHWAY. of last year causes them to do that which makes a show of repairing, but which in the end leaves the roads in worse condition than before repairs were attempted. My idea of what should be done Is to elect at the annual town meeting on al ternate years a road supervisor whose term of office shall be for two years unless sooner terminated. Give him the entire charge of the roads, bridges and sluices and pay liiin a liberal per diem for time necessarily expended. The first duty of the supervisor should be to appoint a resident road guardian for each section of road, such section not to exceed three miles in extent. The duty of this road gtiai Man shall be not to repair damage, but to prevent it. He should inspect the road under his charge frequently, especially durlng heavy rains, and see that gut ters and sluices are kept open and wa ter bars unbroken. Often ten minutes' work with hoe or shovel at the right moment will save ten hours' work with teams and men. I have recently driv en over hundreds of miles of coun try roads and have observed the great damage done by the spring rains. In nearly every case a little work at the right time could have saved the roads. In the event of any unusual damage the guardian should report promptly to his superior. The material usually used in repair ing country roads is road wash or turf that has grown upon It and is in no sense suitable. The worn pebbles have no power of coherency. They will not bind, and the organic matter of turf Is productive only of mud or dust. There is 110 road so pleasant to ride upon as a well made, well drained, well graded dirt road. Once settled Into place tt will last in good condition for years if frequently looked after. On heavy soils it will, of course, be muddy when the frost Is coming out, but that is only for a short period, and the pleas ure of riding on It free from noise and dust at other seasons compensates for a good deal of springtime annoyance. It is not practicable to harden all country roads, and if the road is well drained and the gutters and sluices kept open It is not desirable. A clat tering stone road takes away much of the charm of a country drive, to say nothing of the annoyance to dwellers thereon. Sometimes, If gravel is readily available, it is economy to surface a damp dirt road with a four inch coat. This will keep all liyht vehicles out of the mud, even In sprlugtime, and un less very heavy teams pass over it will last for years. Wet places that cannot be successfully drained should be filled with a tel ford pavement and from six to eight inches of gravel placed over it. All gutters and sluices should be large enough to take the rainfall at its greatest excess, and the fajlure to have them so is a frequent source of dam age and consequent expense. To sum marize, put your roads into the best condition possible with the means avail able and then give them constant at tention rather than neglect them for It months and repair tlieni in one. When you have tlieni in good condition, expend your efforts upon keeping tho gutters and sluices open and leave the road itself alone as much as possible. An old, hard roadbed is better than any new, soft one that can be made with tarth in any case, aud It is far more desirable than the usual agglomeration of road wash leaves and turf.

To break up a col l. which certainly disfigures the face ol beauty, as well as a valuable adjunct in the removal of facial eruptions, the nightly foot bath is invaluable. The largest sweat glands of the body are located in the palms, armpits and soles of the feet. It is of primary importance that the multitudinous outlets should be unclog ged. Where facial eruption exists and the whole attention is devoted toward the care of the face, every pore is ac tive and open to afford the escape of clogging impurities. This is all wrong. The feet should >e made the gateway for the escape of ffete deposits. The temperature of lie footbath should range from 105 to 10 degrees or as hot as can be en .ured with comfort. Should there ex ist chronic profuse and offensive per spiration, add a lump of washing soda to neutralize the acid exudation. The ■ feet should be rubbed briskly to draw the blood down to the extremities. Cool the water before withdrawing the feet, so that they may not become un duly tender.
