The daughter disp<>sed of the home and paid oil some of her father’s obli gations. She went to the country on a visit, and It was there the Idea came to her of raising chickens. She mentioned the plan to one of her father’s friends, and he arranged f o r ‘the purchase of a farm for her. She paid $1,000 for the farm and laid out $500 on henhouses and an incubator. Iler first purchase of hens came to $100. At the end of the first year she had sold 140 dozen eggs and 348 broilers which she had hatched from an incu bator. The second year she paid all ex penses and banked $050. Today she has two farms. She runs the farm her self, with the assistance of one man. I{emlndi»d of her society life, she said, “ 1 don’t regret for one moment leaving Springfield and all my friends there, and, as for society, give me the birds and flowers and the dear country, where one’s few friends are true and the possession of a little money does not Influence friendship, ns it does in a large city.” W r l t o th m D o c t o r .

B ellrt of the K ouko , The postal authorities at Brussels hove lately noticed tiiat the mail hags dispatched to the Kongo were not lay ing duly iVtnrned. and after a lot of trouble they discovered the reason. It appears that the colored postmen in the Kongo Free State make presents of the mail bags to their wives or fiancees. r These ladies simply cut out the bot tom. and by drawing what is left over their heads, and with the assistance of a jilece of string, they have an ultra modern ready made costume. The fact that the sacks ore furnished with an enormous black seal hearing f:lte legend i “ Brussels Center” does not disconcert them In the least.—Stockholm Kvenska I Dnghlad. " “ M ade” F e a th e r« a H oax. The Woman’s clob o f Northboro, Mass., appointed a meeting in t>ehalf of the birds Just before the time of Easter bonnet shopping. The presl- dent. Miss Ktilth Barnet, made an ear- nest plea for bird protection and espe- dally urged the worn* n not to be coax ed into wearing bird plumage under the delusion that the feathers wero “ made.” Every woman should Investi gate for herself, she said, and the safe plan waa to refuse feather wearing of any sort. IN In an article In The Prairie Farmer Mr. H. II. Fitch of Iowa dlacnaaea the problem “ How Shall W e Improve Highways?” He says: Not by running In debt and Issuing bonds which will remain a mortgage on our furnis until paid by Increased taxation. Such measures would drive more people to the towns and make our boys aud girls less willing to re main on the farms and follow the oc cupation of tillers of the soil. Yet we want and must have better roads. The demand for rural free mall delivery Is urgeut and pressing the general gov ernment from every quarter. This de mand cannot be met without roads suitable for light vehicles at all sea sons of the year, under all conditions of the weather. How shall we make the roads better? We must make them, for the most part of the soli and near by where the road Is located. The alluvial soil of the greater portion of Iowa, Illinois and a considerable portion o f other adjoining states Is rich In humus and all the con stituents that are needed to euahlc it to produce bountiful crops. But these materials are not the best for making a solid roadbed Impervious to water and free from mud aud water In rnlny weather. But roads of this material may be made possible even In wet weather If properly drained and the grade maintained In an ovul form, so that the water which falls thereon shall tlnd Its way quickly to the ditches beside the road aud ou to the sea. A very large number of good and sufficient grades have been built by the townships and counties of Iowa and other states, which, for want of proper enre, arc quagmires and almost, if not altogether. Impassable In a rainy sea son or In the annual break up of the springtime. To put these In order and keep them so we must have some man or men who can do It when the ground 1» In condition for such work and the farmers are busy In their fields plant ing and sowing. The road supervisor must not lie a farmer, and here In Io wa he should work under the direction of the township trustees. We have machines In almost every township for grading and ditching which, If properly bundled, will take the earth from the edges of the road ! F. A . W IG G IN S , 257 Liberty street, Salem the township a single district under one supervisor, but have rarely If ever required the entire road tax to be paid In' money. It might be better to give the care and the expenditure of the highway funds to the county board of su|>ervlsor*. permitting them to expend In the several townships all the taxes raised In the township by contract for new grades and the maintaining 111 good order all grades already made, contracting for graveling the grades wherever that Is available. Old methods of muklng and caring for the roads have followed us from primitive times In the older eastern states, and must be relegated to the dead past before we can hope, for very much better hlghwa.v8. A more Just met hod of taxatlou whereby the prop erty or all the people, bondholders and railroads, telegraph, telephone and all other public utilities, are made to pay their Just proportion of the taxes by an UKsessment of their properties accord ing to their cash or selling value, the same as a farm or the merchant's stock of goods or the capital of a bonk, will aid materially In equalizing the burdens of making and maintaining better roads. F o r t h e H ig h w a y s . The good roads officials of the gov ernment' are felicitating themselves over the fnct that, although congress failed to pass the river and harbor bill. It did appropriate $20.000 for the cause of good roads. Even though this was $130.000 less than the amount asked for, the beautlfiers of the public high- ways are thoroughly satisfied with the treatment accorded them by congress, all things and all appropriations con sidered.

For the j last three years she has helped her un ' cle In his undertaking business. j Her first week she had a case tlm: , looked like murder, and the sheriff swore out a warrant for a prominent citizen, but Dr. Kllu urged him to withhold It and not he too hasty. She ! carefully searched the dead man’s room and there found his last state ment. in which he suid he killed him self on account of disease. Dr. Ella Is very popular.—Cincinnati Enquirer. The critics who disapprove of the athletic young woman on the score that ton much attention to athletic games Is prejudicial to the acquire ment and practice of domestic arts will probably l»e elated over the news from England that In a menage and means competition conducted by an English Journal the papers were so fioor that no competitor was deemed worthy of winning even the second prize. Something of the same kind is said to have occurred awhile ago at n military camp near a seaside resort. The young women carried off high hon ors In tennis, cycling, golf and other sports and spent much time at these games. The men were preparing for a military examination, and It was sug gested that the young women submit to a test regarding their knowledge of household lore. Not one passed suc cessfully. Two of the qtic»st!ons were, “ Why does the smoke go up the chim ney?” and “ What Is the difference in the process of boiling and baking?” And the competitors declared them un fair.

The maintenance of dirt roads after being properly constructed Is usually left to the elements; consequently the rondinaker Is compelled to rebuild his road annually, while the employment of a caretaker or overseer at all times on all roads would maintain our dirt roads In fair condition with present taxation.
