S un beam .
It’s a common enough thing for chil
dren to try to pick up sunbeams, but
tho earnestness with which this at
tempt was made by n small boy lu uu
elevated car attracted the attention of
the other passengers.
lie was a very small boy, not moru
than 2>/a years old and still In dresses.
The seats In the car were all takch,
and the small boy stood up with his
mother.
There came Into the car over one of
tho blinds a slender sunbeam, which
fell diagonally downward across tho
little fellow's dress, and when his eye
fell upon this ho reached down and
carefully closed his hand over It und
then raised bis hand to his face and
opened his fingers. But there wasn't
any sunbeam there.
The passengers who snw this were
as much Interested In It all, In their
way, as the small boy was In his. and
presently they raw him try It again.
Looking down, he snw the sunbeam
still there, just where It lind been be
fore when he had tried to grasp It. aud
he made that effort again.
Reaching down, ho closed his fingers
n round It orn e more, and once more he
raised Ills Imnd and opened It and look-
ed In kle for the sunbeam, once more
to find—nothing there.
Then taller buildings cut off the ray,
nnd the small boy's mind was diverted
into some other channel.—New York

The Nick In the Lnpel.
\"ou who have been wearing loata
and vests since childhood have per-
haps never stopped to consider the ulck
In the lapel. A controversy Is now in
progress on the other side of the At-
lantic as to how this originated. The
following Ingenious explanation has at
length been offered:
It Is said that when Napoleon first
felt the sway of ambition he tried to
Implicate General Moreau In I’ iehe-
gru’s conspiracy.
Moreau had been
Napoleon’s superior and was exceed
h\' l.v popular, Imt under the clrcuiu- j
stances, with the man of destiny In
power. It was not safe to express pub
licly sympathy with Moreau. Ills ad
mirers and supporters quietly ngreeJ
to nlek tlielr c-oat lapels to show their
fellowship, the outlines of the coat,
after the nick was made, formlug tlie
letter M. Moreau was exiled by Na- I
poleou and lived In Morrtsvllle. I ’u.
la road building the ohjeet Is to ob
tain a roadway with n firm and un
yielding surface, one that can stand
the wear of liaising vehicles without
disintegration, nnd it must also be wa
terproof. so that rains will run off Into
the glitter instead of penetrating the
surface. A gravelly soil needs less
preparation than any other.
Roads
need not lie over 15 feet wide, with
8 Indies of cobblestone or broken lime
stone for foundation and a surface of
finer stone ns finish. The limestone
used for n foundation should be cover
ed with granite to secure best results.
All roads should be drained and tiled

Hard roads statisticians have figured
that Illinois now spends and baa been
spending for year« more than 32,600,-
000 annually on Ita road work — more
than It Is proposed to raise from both
state and township taxation under the
Curtis bill. This mouey goes for the
pay of tlie county and township aud
mad district officials, for roadmaking
tools, tor labor, aud where farmers
work out their road tax the allowance
to them Is figured In.
This sum, It Is estimated, would be
sufficient In a dozen years to equip ev
ery township In the state with a north
nnd south and an east and west mac
adam road of first class quality, yet
this enormous sum Is annually spent
for nothing—dumped Into the mud, lit
erally aa well as figuratively, through
lack of scientific skill applied to road
building.
Advocates of good roads legislation
are not all sticklers for macadam,
which la usually meant when “hard
roads’’ are mentioned. Gravel, slag,
“gumbo” and many other cheap mate
rials can be used. It la even admitted
that a fair quality of road can be made
of ordinary prairie ooll. but It most be
scientifically constructed.
