Sioiuuj lru; Co, SHOCKED THE HOSTESS. A. Practical Joke That Was Parae traUd by Eugana FiaJd. There are many stories Incident to the career of the late Eugeuo Field, who not only wrote songs for the chll dren, but who wus at times fond of practical Jokes, which Illustrate his In imitable humor. On one occasion be played an unex pected part ut a dinner given In honor of himself and his wife which, while it had Its serious side, was made all the more enjoyable by the grave de portment of Mr. Field. The dinner was given by & leading Chicago family. When all were seat ed Mr. Field repaired w the pantry, only to return In a few moments with a dozen or more costly gold embroid ered wineglasses, the property of the hostess, which, to her silent astonish ment, he proceeded to hand over to each guest one by one, a souvenir of the occasion. Great was the merriment when it was realized that the hostess hud not contemplated parting with her cher ished glasses. But Mr. Field was not yet content. Returning .them to the pantry by previous' arrangement with the butler, he took up a tray of old bottles and other broken glassware nnd, pretending to stumble, dropped it on the floor, apparently shattering the valuable wineglasses. The feelings of the hostess may be imagined, for It was some time before the real situation was understood. PONT DU GARD. An Ancient Concrete Bridge In the South of France. In the south of France is a concrete arch bridge known as the Tout du Gard. which was erected in the year 50 B. C. The concrete in this was not composed of crushed stone or other small aggregate of the variety now era ployed hi concrete bridge work, but was of the old style, consisting of al ternate layers of large and small stones, gravel, etc.. and of cemeutl tious materials. Vltruvlus describes the materials and methods in use be fore the Christian era, and other writers like Albert! i:i 1S13 and Pol ladio in 1570 accurately describe the method which "the ancients" (as they call tlienn employed "of using boards laid on edge and tilling the space be tween with cement and all sorts of small and large stones mingled to gether." It is very improbable that the Pont du Card would have withstood the rigors of climate of the northern United Stales, but its actual state of preservation, as well as that of many other specimens of ancient concrete work, proves that if modern work is honestly executed it will many times outlast any reasonable bond period, so that a very small yearly sinking fund per cent is all that is required for properly designed and erected concrete work. Cement Age. Concerning Two Sounds. When .loseph Henry Lumpkin was chief just ire of Georgia a case was brought up from Columbus In which a wealthy citizen asked for an injunc tion to prevent the construction of a planing mlll across the street very near his palatial residence. Ills grounds for complaint consisted chiefly iu the prcposltiou that the noise of the mill would wake him too early in the morn ing. "Let the mill be built." said the chief justice In rendering his decision. "Let Its wheels be put In motion. The prog ress of machinery must not be stopped to suit the whims or the fears of any man. Complainant's fears are Imagi nary. The sound of the machinery will not le a nuisance. On the contrary, it will prove a lullaby. Indeed, I know of but two sounds In all nature that a man cannot become reconciled to. and they are the braying of an ass and the tongue of a scolding woman." Atlanta Constitution. Poulticed With Mud. A noted explorer recently returned from central Africa tells of a unique method employed by his companions and himself to alleviate the dreadful agony of prolonged thirst. In parts of the dark continent there are great stretches of country where no water fit to drink Is to be found, although there are here and there pools of thick, stagnant mud. In such country the party wandered for live days without water and might have perished but for an Idea that occurred to their leader. Following his advice and example. they collected the stagnant mud wher- . . . . j i . . . 1 . I ! ever it was 10 ie ioumu uuu uiuur u Into long poultices, which they fas tened round their bodies next the skin. This simple process they found to give great relief. London Answers. Insurance From Italy. Insurance came from mediaeval Italy. It Is lielieved to date from the six teenth ccutury, nnd at that time it was known in Florence. The Romans did not know insurance. The nearest they came to it was the practice of a company supplying the army t re quire a guarantee from the state against the loss of ships. Rut this was soon abandoned, because damages had been collected for sunken ships too worthless to float. Outdoor Trimmings. "Tell nie something." Well?"
