How It I, Done.

First City Father—fibre's a fine-look-ing street. Second ditto —You’re right there. What’s best to be done to it ?” “Let’s have it dug up for a sewer.” “But wouldn’t it be proper to pave it first?” “Of course. I supposed you understood that. Then, after it is paved and a sewer put in we’ll have it repaved.” “All in readiness to be dug up again forthe gas pipe? I see you understand the principles of municipal economy. And after we have it repaved a second time, then what ?” “Well, then, it will be in order for widening. There’s nothing I admire so much as system in the care and improvement of our roadways.”— Boston Transcrijjt.
