A ROAD OF LITTLE COST.
Maine Has Least Expensive and Most
Substantial of Telford Highways.
One of the least expensive and
most substantial of telford roads In
this country is said to be the St.
George highway, In Knox county,
Maine. It is 18 feet in width, thor
oughly drained and cost only 60 cents
per foot, or $2,640 per lineal mile.
This low cost was possible because
stones of suitable size for the lower
courses were beside the road, and
granite chips were had for the mere
hauling from the groutheaps of quar
ries 'close by the road.
A description of this road says that
Its gutters carry away every drop of
water. The lower course of the bed
Is of stones of varying sizes, none so
big that a man could not alono handle
each, and they were so placed as to
tend to bind themselves together, al
though they wero fitted together rath
er roughly. Smaller pieces wero then
fitted into the crevices of this lower
layer. With long handled hammers
men went over this and broke up any
bits which were too large.
On theso wero spread granite chips
from the refuse heaps of the adjoining
quarry. This top dressing was com
pacted with n roller drawn by horses,
and an excellent road was the result.
Piping Gutter Water.
In many localities it is tho custom
to extend to the center of the road
driveways leading from adjacent lands
to the road to meet Its center grade.
This practice makes it necessary to
carry the guttor water under tho
driveway in a pipe. Nearly always It
is possible, by regradlng such a drive
way, to make it coincide with the gut
ter grade, so that tho surface water
"will How by without interruption.
Tliis should always ho done when
possible. Pipes with open end3 laid

at the gutter grade are always unsat
isfactory, since they till up quickly
with leaves and sand and with slush
in winter time, and thus tho surface
water is forced out upon the macadam
and soon gullies it. When a pipe is
required, a catch basin should bo
built on tho upper side of the drive
way, tho pipe should bo laid to con
nect with it, and carried sufficiently
far underground to discharge pro.-erly
into the gutter bc'ov the driveway.
Stirring the Country.
The whole eoiuury is stirred as
never before relative to tills gr.at
question of highway improvement.
Two years ago six only ot the whole
galaxy responded to a call of the roll
of States that gave aid to their peo
ple in road making. Not many ticks
of the clock have hen heard, nor nas
tho sun risen on many days since the
representatives of sixty-five per cent,
of the population of the country men
who spoke tho minds of lifty.fivo
millions of the people of this land
stood on a platform in Pittsburg and
voiced the demands for uetter roads;
and twenty-two commonwealths were
at that time committed to the use of
State moneys to help improve tho
highways of the people. New York
had agreed to spend for that purpose
?5,000,000 yearly, or C9 cents per
capita of her population, and now
Connecticut purposes to give from
her State treasury for like purpose
practically 100 cents yearly per capi
ta of her people.
Maximum Grade.
In American practice the maximum
grade for important roads has been
generally llxed at 5 per cent, where
such a grade can be had without too
great cost for grading and for pay
ment for damage to abutting proper
ty. Dy 5 per cent, is meant a verti
cal rise of 5 feet in 100 feet of hori
zontal distance. A horse can trot
without especial difficulty up such a
grade. On steeper grades, macadam
surfaces, or, indeed, any kind of a
surface, can be maintained only at
considerable co3t.
No Level Macadams.
Some authorities insist that a ma
cadam road should never bo level, ar
guing that a slight rise and fall is
needed to permit the surface water to
run longitudinally along the road.
Usually, even if the road is absolute
ly lovel, if it is also properly crowned,
tho gutters of the road may bo so
graded aB to provide suitably for sur
face drainage. Tho width of the grad
ing will depend, of course, on the
width of the macadam adopted.
Water Softens Foundation.
Water should never be permitted to
remain under a macadam road. It
coftens the foundation so that the
broken stones are forced down Into
It by the wheels of vehicles, thus
causing ruts to develop In the maca
dam. In freezing it expands and
"heaves" the broken stone, destroy
ing the bond between tho atones and
causing the larger atones to rise to

The Boy
1 "wir r -a n I
j w no Ran j
n mi- mi- mi .mi nn hQ
Tho boy was running at a steady
pace. The pace was not a fast one
It might have been called a Jog trot.
The boy trotted easily, his clenched
hands against his breast, and his
chin up. He might havo been twenty,
but ho hnd a boyish look that wa3 em
phasized by his smooth cheeks, his
curly hair and his big blue eyes.
His trot carried hliu by an elderly
woman in a phaeton drawn by a fat
and slow paced horse. He did not
look around as he moved ahead. He
was Interested in his task, and more
especially In tho road ahead of him.
Tho elderly woman looked after him
curiously. T'lon her look suddenly
changed.
"One of those invalids from tho
sanitarium, I 'sposu," she murmured
half nloud. "Thoj do set 'em tho
most outlandish tasks. Poor boy.
He's thin enough now wthout getting
nny thinner. An' no looked llko quite
a worthy young man. too."
She touched up the fat horse with
the whip lash, but the sagacious ani
mal merely shivered slightly and
steadily plodded along.
Presently she came In sight of tho
boy. He was walking now, walking
with a firm stride, lib arms dangling
and his head well up.
Tho old lady coaxed the fat horse
into a trot.
"Now, Hilly," she said, "you'vo
been having tilings made easy for you
nil the way. Lot's see how grateful
you are. Gltap."
Tho fat horse, as if acknowledging
tho possession of a conscience, quick
ened his pace, and after a little steady
effort caught up with tho stranger
whoso pace had again slackened.
The woman drew the fat horse
down to a walk.
"Good mornln', young man," she
said In her brisk and yet pleasant
voice. "How do you lind oursclf this
morning? Potter, I hope?"
The boy looked up at her. She no
ticed that he had high cheek bones
and many freckles. And there were
two red spots on his freckled cheeks.
"Yes, ma'am, better," ho answered
and there was a queer twinkle in Ills
blue eyes.
"I'm glad c' that." she said. "It
seemed to inj that the treatment
looked a little severe."
"It's the treatment I need, ma'am."
"But you can't gain any flesh run
ning about the country In that way."
The blue eyes twinkled again.
"No, ma'am, but I can lose some."
She stared at him.
"Is it recommended to you by a
doctor a regular physician?"
"No, ma'am. It's recommended all
right, but not ;ust to me. lint I know
it's what I need. 1 ain't rich enough
to have a doctor, so I'm lookin' after
myself."
Tho gray eyes were uinimed Dy
Pity.
"Poor boy," she said.
The tone touched the stranger.
"I don't mind It," he laughed. "I'm
pretty comfortable."
The niothorr' face was still cloud
ed. "I guess those doctorm' folks In
tho village mean well," she said, "but
sometimes their ways of helpin' peo
ple seem a little severe. I'm goln' to
the village. Won't you get In tho
buggy an' finish out your treatment
a little moro comfortably?"
Ho shook his curly head.
"That wouldn't help me any, thank
you, ma'am. Put I'll walk along side
your carriage, if you'll let me."
"To be sure you may," the old lady
replied. She drew up the reins and
spoke to Billy.
"That's a fine fat horse you have,
ma'am," said the stranger as he
strode along by the carriage wheel.
"Billy is a pet and sadly spoiled,"
said tho old Indy.
"Maybe a little of my treatment
would help him, ma'am."
They both laughed at this and then
the kind old face grew grave.
"Do you cough?" she Follcltlously
asked.
"No. ma'am."
"They don't in some stages," she
murmured.
"I did cough a little," ho explained,
"but that was before my broken rib
slipped Into place."
"You had a hurt then?"
"Yes, ma'am. It bothered me quite
a bit. You see I didn't know any
thing about it until until it was all
over, and tho bono jabbed mo in
the lung."
Again the kind old face clouded.
"I have an excellent sirup for
coughs," she said, "but as far as 1
know It Isn't good for anything else."
A smile lighted tho freckled face.
"Thank you. ma'am. If I got a
cough I'd bo glad to try it."
Tho old lady nodded.
"My name is Miss Summers," she
said, "Ellen Summers. My homo is
back on tho road where tho big oak
stands by tho gate."
"I know tho place, ma'am, an' a
flno little plnco it is. An' n great
oak It is, too. Somutimo I'll drop In
when I'm runnln" by an' have a tasto
from tho giass that stands on tho old
well box, ma'am."
"You'll bo qulto welcome," tho old
lady told him. "ve think the water
is very good. An' there Is always
plenty of cold milk in tho cellar, an
very often a pitcher of buttermilk."
"Thank you kindly, ma'am, I won't
forget. But hero's wlicro I turn down
tho sldo street an' so I wish you a
very good day, ma'am."
She watched the slender figure as
It strode away, and sighed.
"Poor boy." she murmured. "I
gm nn -1
'sposo they are very often like tbnt
so sure they are going to get vell
again. An' mnybe, It's Just as v. ell
the folks don't tell him the truth."
And old Wily plodded along nt Mil
favorite gait and was no. rcyri.W'd.
It was two d. .' im- that t!'o l"y
opened the z.i'.v hi! "i::e .' j
path In the v.-de u ..I'.iiirt t-..afov
of the groat oak.
The old lady was sitting on her
vine covered porch. She shaded her
eyes with her hand as he approached.
He took off ills cap.
"How do you do, ma'am?" he said.
"1 hope you are well."
She knew iiim then.
"It's the young mnn who runs,"
she said. "I am glad to see you
again. Will you seat yourself on tho
porch?"
"I'll sit here, ma'am, thank you,"
he said and balanced himself on the
edge of the porch flooring.
She looked him over carefully, not
ing ngaln tho red spots on his freck
led checks.
"And which shall It be?" she asked.
"Water, or milk, or buttermilk?"
"It will bo buttermilk, mn'am," he
nnswered. "If not too much trou
ble." She speedily brought him tho pitch
er and ho drank two glasses with a
great relish.
"It's flno," ho smilingly told her.
"And are you still continuing tho
treatment?" she asked htm.
"Yes, ma'am," he answered, "an'
It's helpin' mo a great deal. I've
lost three poui.ds In a week."
Her compassionate look came back.
"And have you no home?" she
asked.
"No, ma'am," he answered. "I
can't remember thnt 1 ever had a
home. I'm Just a boy out of the
streets. I've taken a lot o' hard
knocks, but I've never seen th' day
when I didn't have enough to eat an'
some kind of a place to sleep. An'
that's about all there is to it, ma'am."
She shot, her head at this somo
what grim bit of philosophy, hut be
fore she could answer it ho had
drawn away from tho porch.
"This won't do, ma'am," he said
and his eyes kept tip their twinkling.
"I'm forgetting the treatment. Every
moment I loiter here adds an ounce
or two to my weight. Goodby, ma'am,
an' heaven keep you." And he loped
down tho walk to tho highway and
disappeared behind tho high hedge.
"I wish old Dr. Phipps could see
him," said the lady. "I feel sure hl3
treatment is too severe. Poor boy,
with no home, and nowhere to go in
his last illness. I'll talk to Dr. Phipps
about it."
Next day the good lady was urgin;!
old Billy to a faster gait when the
boy, walking brikly, came along sida
tho ancient phaeton.
"Good mornln', ia'am."
"Good morning." She looked at
him closely. "Did you sleep well last
night?" she asked
"Never slept better." ho answered.
'An' I've lost nearly another pound,
ma'am. If I can i;'t rid of two mors
I'll he in fine shape."
Ho laughed as ! e said this anl
nodded comically
Her heart warmed to him. lie was
so light hearted, so careless, so in
different to his own condition.
"I'm afraid it's not tho right treat
ment," she said. "I wish to call !n
old Dr. Phipps. I will gladly assuino
the expenses. Cor.'e and make my
house your lio .ie while he studies
your case."
She spoke gently yet earnestly and
tho boy was much affected by her
words.
"You're very good, ma'am," he said.
"Better to me than anyone ever was
before. You don't know who or what
I am, an' yet .,011 offer me a home.
I ain't worth It. ma'am. I'm a bad
lot. You're all mistaken about me.
Listen, ma'am, an' I'll tell you the
truth."
But before he could say more a
sudden Interruption startled them.
From a cabin a few hundreds of feet
from the highway, came a shrill
scream.
Tho old lady stopped tho fat horse.
"That's Bob Harris beating his
wife," she said. "The miserable
wretch must had a glass too much.
Liquor makes him fighting mad."
Another scream rent the air. The
boy squirmed uneasily.
"He's a cowardly dog," he growled.
"He's an ugl; brute," said the old
lady. "An' he's big and dangerous."
The boy hesitated.
"I I would like to give him a wal
lop or two that ho wouldn't forget,
but I'm afraid," ho said. "I'm afraid
of getting hurt."
Ho flushed as ho said this, but tho
old lady didn't notice him. Her gray
eyes were fixed on the cabin door.
"Ho certainly would hurt you," she
said.
Tho boy drew a quick breath.
"Tho first thing I remember hear
ing," ho said, "was the scream of my
poor mother when my brute of a
father whipped her. I made up my
mind that there would lo no wife
beating In any part of tho town where
I happened to be and hero I am,
afraid tho first tlmo I hear a woman
scream. But understand mo, ma'am.
I'm not afraid in my mind, but in my
body. A single blow would spoil all
tho good work I've been doing. It's
a shame, ma'am. It makes mo blush."
"I don't blame you," said tho wom
an. "You'ro weak and 111 and Bob
Harris Is ugly and big and strong. I
think I'll go and reason with him."
Before she could step from the
phaeton a half dozen cries of sharp
pain rent the air. The boy saw the
woman recoil and noted the pallor
that overspread her face. He flung
his cap on the floor of the phaeton,
and tossed his coat after It. Then he
leaped the fence and ran toward the
cottage. When he reached tho bouse
he pushed open the door and entered.
A moment after a babel of Indis
tinct cries arose from tho Hervia
home. This was followed by tho
sudden reappearance of tho boy. Ho
v ns In full retreat followed closely
by the orrlble Harris.
The boy ran a little ways nnd then
sur-pthlng remarkable happened. Tho
! ' i-t'ddenly turned nnd attacked tho
L'Ir. rustier with tremendous vigor.
lie rained blow after blow upon
the wife beater. The brutal husband
tried to ward off the attack, but hadn't
the skill. He was forced backward,
shouting nnd cursing. Tho boy, close
ly following, with lightning strokes,
hnmmerod down the big man's de
fense and Ilnnlly forced him to tho
ground. As he fell he struck his head
against the side of the house.
The boy was over the prostrate
form in n flash and catching up the
ruffian's head by the ears, banged It
rudely ngnlnst the side of the house.
At this the woman In tho phaeton
suddenly tur ed away,
Presently the banging stopped and
the voice of the boy was heard. Tho
woman could not i.ear the man's re
ply, but the banging nt onco recom
menced. Then it suddenly stopped
and the boy spo' e ngaln.
When tl'e woman looked around he
was climbing the fence nnd tho man
hnd disappeared. The boy took his
cap and coat.
"He won't beat his wlfo again," ho
said. "He promised me. If ho
breaks bis word I'll give him what I
promised him."
The woman looked at him with
something like admiring awe.
"Did did you hurt him much?" she
asked.
"I hurt nim enough to make him
go slow when he thinks of hurting his
wife. It's lucky I didn't hurt him a
good deal more."
Ills tone suddenly grew bitter.
"I I made a fool of myself."
"I don't .inderstand," said the wom
an. "I lost my temper. That's tho
trouble with me. He made me mad.
I should have laughed. Instead of
that I got wild. I'll never succeed un
til I can keep a tight grip on my
temper."
He seemed so discouraged that tho
woman put out her hand and laid it
gently on his arm.
"Why," she cried, "you are hurt!"
"My knuckles are bleeding, that's
all," he answered. "It doesn't mat
ter." "Get into the buggy," said the wom
an. "I'm going to take you homo and
tie up your hands. It's a small !
enough return to the man who has j
taught that dreadful Harris a lesson." I
He took tho seat meekly and she
drove home and put a soothing lint-
ment on his torn hands and tied them
up and gave him food and drink. And
presently ho was resting in one of
the easy rockers on the shaded porch.
"Are you quite comfortable?" the
woman asked.
"I'm all right." ho smilingly an
swered.
"And your unaccustomed exercise
hasn't hurt you any?"
"Not a bit, ma'am."
Sho looked at him admiringly.
"You are ruite wonderful," she
said. "You come here, an Invalid,
and soundly whip Bob Harris, who
Is considered a great fighter, and
niako liini beg for mercy, and then
you say the exercise hasn't hurt you
any."
The face of the boy grew grave. Ho
hesitated a moment.
"Lady," he said, "I hate to tell you
what I'm going to toll, but I must.
You'ro all wrong about mu nnd I've
let you go on making the mistake.
I'm not an invalid. I'm not sick. I'm
thin, perhaps, but I'm as hard as nails
and strong as a horse. I came to the
village because it's a quiet place and
I've a friend there. And I've been
running these roads to improve my
wind and to get my weight down a
few pounds lower. When I said I
was afraid of being .iurt it was true.
To got hurt foolish is a serious thing
in my business."
He paused and looked at the wom
an. "What is your business?" sho ask
ed and her voice faltered.
"Lady," he slowly answered, "you
have been very good to me kinder
than any woman 1 have ever known.
I hate to hurt your feelings. But I'm
going to square with you. My name
is Danny Crane. I'm a professional
fighter, a prize fighter. Two weeks
from to-day I am to fight for the
lightweight championship."
He paused and looked out across
tho garden.
Tho woman sat very still. Her
Puritan Instincts wero outraged by
this confession. All her life-long
moral training revolted against It
The roof of her quiet porch was shel
tering a degraded creature of the
shameless arena. She looked at the
boyish face and the bandaged hands.
A moment later Danny Crano felt
a light touch on his shoulder. He
looked up quickly and encountered
tho woman's misty gaze.
"I'm sorry you're a fighter," sho
softly said, "but if you must fight"
she drew a quick breath "I hope
you'll fight to win." W. It. Rose, in
Cleveland Plain Dealer.
Cat Saved Life of Mistress.
Mme. Mario Hayot's cat saved her
mistress' life one morning last month.
Mme. Ilayot, who lives in Paris, heard
tho cat mew loudly, and jumped out
of bed, thinking that It was after her
birds, which were In the next room.
As Mme. Rayot rushed Into this room
a burglar knocked her candle from
her hand and caught her by the throat
and attempted to strangle her. He
let her go, however, with a cry of pain,
and when Mme. Rayot's shrieks
brought In the neighbors It was found
that tho cat had scratched out one of

FOR BEGINNERS WITH BEES.
Suggestions Which May Make His
First Year Successful.
A few suggestions may be helpful
to the beginner In bee keeping and
enable him to make his first year's
work n marked success.
1. Shade your hives if possible with
trees carrying heavy foliage. Swarms
should be shaded from nlno a. m. to
five p. m. dur.ng the hottest season
of the year.
2. Get a super of honey from the
hive wintered over by putting a super
containing sections with full sheets ot
foundation or a super containing ex
tracting frames on the hive as soon
as there Is a good working force.
3. When the swarm Issues remove
the super from the old and plnco it
upon the new stand. Your new swarm
will not leave their hive and will be
quite likely to continue working In
the super.
4. Arrange a wind-break to prevent
loaded bees from being df.shed against
the hive fronts by the prevailing
strong winds.
5. Provide pupports for tho hives
which will lift them n foot or more
from the ground. Ants and Insect
eating animals may give trouble If
the hives are on the ground.
G. Get your extra hives and supers
set up for use several weeks before
any swarms are expected or tho honey
flow may bo half over before you are
ready to take care of it.
7. Keep all comb-honey In moth
proof cases and examine frequently.
8. Set the hive with the front of
the bottom board a half-Inch lower
than the back but It should be lovel
sldewlse or combs will be built at an
angle with the frames or sections.
0. Do not attempt to handle bees on
cold damp days but while they are
working In the field.
10. If bees are found hanging In
chains In a supr do not smoke them
down, thinking they are idlers, for
they are probably secreting wax.
11. Prevent much swarming by re
moving extra queen cells and by giv
ing plenty of space at the bottom.
Strong swarms produce surplus
honey.
12. Grow with your business by
reading a bee journal, a bee book, or
both.
Syrup for Bees.
The best food at all times if It could
bo given is certainly honey, but in Its
place the only .substitute admissible
is pure sugar In the form of syrup.
Syrup Is best used when a supply
must be given quickly as in the case
of a colony on the verge of starva
tion, or at the end of the season
when making up the necessary quan
tity of food for wintering. There must
however, be a difference in the con
sistency in the spring and autumn
syrups -in fact, the latter should be
about twice that of the former. The
rent-on for this is that In the spring
the bees leave the hive lor water with
which to thin the food they, in their
cHpactty of nurse bees, prepare for
the queen and grubs; and when
syrup is given with a good proportion
of water, these journeys to the pump
or drains are rendered unnecessary,
while in the autumn, unless syrup
about the consistency of honey is sup
plied the bees will have considerable
trouble In getting rid of the superflu
ous moisture In order to seal It over;
and If they could not do this the
syrup remaining exposed might, and
probably would, ferment and cause
dysentery. P. G. Herman.
Water for the Bees.
Give the bees plenty of water. They
need a great deal and will fly a long
distance to get it.
If there is no running stream or
lake of pure water near it is well to
place a pail of fresh water near the
apiary every day.
Bees use water to dilute the heavy,
thick honey left over from winter to
make it suitable for the young larvae
and also to make the cell wax pliable.
Bees should be protected from the
wind on the north nnd west by a close
set hedge or high fence.
All the weeds should be kept down
In front of the hives. low a plot 6
feet wide and then cut the weeds and
grass close to the ground with a hoe
An hour once a week spent on the
care of the bees will bring larger re
turns for the effort than any other
labor on the farm.
A newspaper mnn In Chicago, who
lives a few miles out In the country,
last year sold $225 worth of honey
to three big hotels. Ho says he did
not spend more than an hour a week
looking after his bees during the sea
son. F. and D. Journal.
Feed Judiciously.
Food given judiciously Is of Im
mense advantage, for without it many
bee keepers would, undoubtedly,
have empty Instead of full supers.
Food in some form may be required
in the spring to help on a colony to
its full strength in readiness for the
honey flow; It Is none the less need
ful during the summer, when through
a continuance of unfavorable weath
er loss by death Is otherwise inevita
ble: but It Is often of supreme im
portance at the end of the season, so
that there shall bo surrounding the
bees food enough to serve not only
for the dally wants, but alBo through
the early part of the year, when tho
new honey Is not being gathered the
stores are drawn upon largely for
brood rearing.
