HARD TO UNDERSTAND EACH OTHER. How m City XUalmary Met 111 Match Is the Vae of I.aiiK""K "My dear brother," faltered tho city missionary with red whiskers anil a tremolo voieu as lie reached through the prison bars and fondled tho puzzlo faced youth "my dear brother in God, what untoward ds cumst&nce, what utiforscen influekcv , led thy erring footsteps from the paths of rftcti hide P "Onco more, Petie." Again tho missionary repeated his question with oven a greater depth of feeling. Yer curves is too wido fer me, podiier. "What's do graft anyhow 1" "How camo you in jail? What have you douo to thud forfeit your liberty!" Nawthin," replied tho puzzled faced youth as a flood of light broke in on him. "I didn't do nawthin. But I'll tell you how it was. Seof 'Bout six months ago in Portland I hooks up with a gilly from Frisco. Ho had a Back an braces mo fer a game of poker. See? I'm pretty flip wid do pastoboards myself, but I sees dero wuz a tapioca in sight nn didn't want to quror do mark. Sec? Sol touched do wires to a chum of mino in Salem. He's a dead smooth duck a foxy bloku with a crockery glim. I tells him to come on an help mo pool d pelt off a j; sier from do sout. See I Well, we sits in a game wid do Frisco mug and pulls his leg for 400. "Den he maces mo fer a round wid do dice. Sez I, 'Does vor mean bizf Dat's what,' sez he. "Trot out yer basalt blocks,' sez L See? Well, I skins him fer a hundred cases tut do bones, but tho jay wuz dead game an wanted to bowl mo fer 50. 1 takes him up an makes a killin of 0 plunks ou Hogan's alley. Den he quits an ducks his nut. See? He

didn't let ou dat ho wuz soro or noth in, and 'bout six weeks later ho sends mo a letter, tellin mo I could mako a winnin in Frisco. Tings is comin me way, I tinks, so I lines mo clothes wid velvet and goes to Frisco. See? "Do mug moots mo at do ferry. trows a few greasers into me, steers mo again a brace game, an I tanks me wad. Had to soak mo spark to eat on. Den do mug gives mo de horse laugh low down, puts do gang on, an I vo been skating on mo uppers over since. See? Last nigfit 1 wuz pinched fer a vag an expect to get it in de neck today, but yer can bet yer feet 111 play even. See?" And the puzzled faced youth scowled ferociously. At first tho missionary listened with an expression of pained astonishment not unmixed with awe. Bewilderment followed, then a loqk f compassion, changing to righteous indignation as tho youth rounded off hia t&lo of 'woo. Then the mission ary hunted up tho turnkey and said it was a downright shamo to pen up an insane man with criminals. Ho was going to see tho authorities about it himself. San Francisco Examiner. A Dreaa Kiddle Solved. A lady who was fond of riddles dreamed that sho met another lady, a stranger to her. "I shall not tell you my name," said tho strange lady. "but I'll put it liko this: If I had a tamo hare which escaped and you caught ft and asked me if you might chain it up that's my name." "Letitia Harrop," answered tho dreamer at on-x); "let I tie a hare up." Thero waa no pauso f or reflection in tho dream any more than in another case. The dreamer, walking with a friend. met an acquaintance of ovino appearance, who saluted with a curious duck. "What a queer bowl" said tho companion in the dream. "Sheep dip," answered tho dreamer; a kind of pun which perhaps nobody would havo made when awako any more than ho would havo solved tho idiotic riddk) of Letitia Harrop. Ban Francisco Argonaut The Need of the Ilcach. Man milliners and ladies' tailors aro common among us, but a barrister sleeve cutter is indeed a novel typo of social development It all roao from a question at law between two rival claimants for a sleevo cutting dovice. Claimant No. 1 held a patent for tho device which claimant Xfo. 2 copied, but claimed to liavo improved upon. And to provo to tho worthy judgo and jurors tho truth of tho matter thobewigged barrister took tho chartliko arrangements and cut a sleeve by each in tho presence of tho court Questions of this kind and lawsuits over tho fit of gowns demonstrate tho need of women on tho -bench, for tho fiuo points at issuo aro not within tho province of tho masculino understanding.

Tho woman with a Imeket on her anii was nosing around tho nmrkot picking up at various stands such ediblo bargains an u killfnl landlady knows at right, and at laatsho pulled up alongside of a stand with a jiilo of divt-Si'd ehiekons on tho counter.

"Yes," replied tlio huckster rather impatiently. t Sho didn't resiond, but begun looking at soniothiug else, and shortly returned to tho chickens, which kIio sniffed at sovoral times and finally put her itoso down clcxse to get a smell that would confirm hor suspicious "Höre," angrily exclaimed tho huckster, "what uro you smelling thoso chickens for?" "I ain't smelling them," sho said as she moved off.

l'olutM About Iluncln:; l'lrturc. Pictures should never bo hung too high. You often eeo a choice little painting hung ko high that you would have to mount a elmir to pco what tho subject is. Ahvnys hang them so that they can lw easily seen by n person of medium height. It is (;r.iaids rt 1 to bo in letter tnsto to uho two nail. instead of one. It gives a move hyinmetncal effect, and indeed it is worth considering as a matter of Fafcty. Bo very cnreful to hang pictuvoK in the proper light. If they aro to bo seen in a stroug light, do not put them in an obscure comer, and if painted in bright colore do not placo where the sunshinowill fall on them. Philadelphia Press. Over 50,000 Parisians, it is said, earn a living by picking up and male iug uso of what other peoplo throw away rags, bones, metal and such refuse.

When tho rains and sun of Mnrt-h mul April havo dispelled tlio winter prmw and drawn from tho ground tho frost that in tho nortliern ututea kei tlio dirt road iKisauhle, a road pnwixvt U ojiened up that may well appall tho stoutest heart. Tho dirt rood in fiiiriug ns now comuionly built, without. drainage and without regard to gnwlo or material, is nsim. jmssablo aa tho Alps. It is literally im. possible to haul any farm wogon cr even a buggy through tho long stretchy of miro axle deep which form nine-tontlu of tho so called roads of this cuuntry during tho months of March and April in tho east and all through flu winter in thu routh and southwest. Tho life of tho farmer's family dnnnj; this period is cmo of almost eomplitn Isolation. Tho younger children an- cK kirrcd from tho privilege of uttomlingtlio echool at tho crossroads unless imlwil they main) tho jourimy to and fmnitlio Kiioolhouso on tho fences, while tho lot of tho older niemlKTS is almost un mlurable. Tliis sttito of affairs is uincwjeary and cruel, and tho farmer hiiw-lf is roxionsiblo for its leing and continuance. Tho legislature iif tho ntnto t f New York has Kt tho ball n-rolliugby j Ain? o road improvement bill, which tho f,'nv cnior has signed, that it is to bo liojl makes tho beginning of a reform that will becomo part of tjio settled jiohey of tho state. Tho highway law is aim-ndM by mithorizlng tho vurious boards of n. pervisors to adopt tho county road tern, apjwfut county engineers to super viso tho improvements of tho roads and to select lines for now and bettor ro.uk No highways within tho limits of any city or incorporated villago are to bo built at tho expense of the count, tho charters of these cities and villages making tho

I a. - vismxo A SEionnou. necessary provision for highways vrttHn their limits. Tlio residents of thetcrona nnd tho'fanncr will nlfko bo bcuefitcdk tho improved highways. TJio fanner peeking a market for his products takes tho always hard and smooth roadway, and tho towns gain by tho frequent exchange of commodities with their rural neighbors. In most of tho southwestern states tho roads' aro so wretched that a railway 10 miU.'S away mifeht ahirost bo 100 fop nil it saves tho farmer in labor nnd cost to got his produco to tho shipping point. Thero aro county scats left deserted for weeks and sometimes for months by tho country pooplo upon whoso patronaRO and trada tho town depends, and for tlw lack of which business stands etill and Industry is stagnant. Good roads aro an economy, nnd lmd roads aro a burden too heavy to lo borne. It remains for tho farmer, and the merchant, and tho mechanic to get together and unito in keeping up tho agitation of good roads and tho education vi tho p oplo until tho thousands of dollar annually paid in tributo to muddy rauh aro saved to themselves. V. II. BAi.u.vr.K. Kowl Mntorlal la Clu-np and Plentiful. Tho man who writes a letter to tho public press condemning tho scheme for tho improvement of roads under the l lief that such improvement would cost from $10,000 to $20,000 per milo is nirin;' Ids personal ignorance. .Thero is no Btato in tho Union that does not supply In ono part or another an excellent quality of road material. Transivortntion was never so chcup nor so well provided for. Tho breaking of stono by largo crusher plants can bo dono at a ridiculously low figure, and most of our great railroads will gladly undertake to cooperate with tho statu in tho freighting of broken stono to points where nailed. Thus, with tho rapid and thorough work accomplished by improved rollers and oaso with which tho material W spread and consolidated, tho question .of cost is less than over before on objection to tho proixsod work. Good macadam roads can bo built better, moro cheaply and moro quickly man nt any timo tho history of tho world. Selected. Oreut Eroiumilo rrolileni. Timo and again tho odvantago of good roads to fho formers has been show", and it is now in order to mnko tho point that with a flno system of public Wgn ways our farming districts would soon bo thickly settled, and tho drift from tho couritry to tho city would 1 checked. Itailwoy transportation is only ono oi mir needs, and our wants In that wspew aro fairly well supplied. Tho great Im of travel and tropic after all is conducted on onr country ronls, nutt their con dition exorcises a controlling billuonw uiion tho settlement and tho civiuwitwn of tho rural districts. Tho liest investment that counties nnd states can nmw is In this direction, and future res' will amply coiffponsato tho people fox ' Blight Increase Iii tlrir taxes. A m" factory highway system is one of our greatest economic imibloms, and n worth nil tho attention thot our statesmen and thoughtful citizens can dovoW to it. Atlant Constitution.
