After awhile alie added: "1 remember once, very long ago, when I was a very little girl, my mother had a work box full of colored reels. 1 alwaya wanted to play with them, but ahe would nerer let me. At laat one day ahe Mid I might take the box. 1 waa so glad I hardly knew what to do.

Then Em prepared to slip off the table but flrat abe laid her little band on Waldo'a. He atopped his plan ing and looked up. "Oregory la going to tbe town to morrow. He Is going to giro In our banna to the minister. We are going be married In three weeks." Waldo lifted her rery gently from the table. He did not congratulate her. rerbapa be thought of tbe empty box. but be kissed her forehead gravely. She walked away toward the house, but atopped whea ahe bad got half way. "I will bring you a glass of but termllk when It ie cool," ahe called out nd soon her clear rolce came ringing out through tbe back windows as she Mng the "Blue Water" to her self and washed tbe butter. Waldo did not wait till she returned. Terbapa be bad at last really grown weary of work; perbapa be felt the wagon houM chilly (for be bad shud dered two or three times), though that waa hardly likely In that warm sum mer weather, or perhaps, and most probably, one of bis old dreaming tits bad come apoa him suddenly, fie pnt bla tools carefully together, ready tor tomorrow, and walked alowly out At the aide of the wagon house there was a world of brlgbt sunshine, and a ben wltb ber cblckona was scratching among tbe gravel. Waldo seated him self near them wltb bla back against tbe red brick wall. Tbe ku.g after noon was half spent and tbe "kopje" waa Just beginning to cast Ita shadow ever the round beaded yellow flowers that grew between It and the farm house.

A balmy, restful peace fulness seemed to reign everywhere. Even the old ben seemed well satisfied.

Hitting there wltb bis arm folded on bla kneea and hi hat slonched down over his fnce, Wnhlo looked out Into the yellow autiRlilne that tinted even the very air with the color of ripe corn and was happy. He waa an uncouth creature, wltb mall learning and oo prospect In tbe future but that of ninklng endless ta blcs and stone wnlls. yet It seemed to him a he at there thnt life was a rnn and very rich thing.

He could feel It wli-n he folded 111 arm tight against his breast, and that was well also. He divw his hat lower over hi eye and sat so nio- tloulesa that the chlrkeus thought he was asleep and gathered closer around him. Ono even ventured to peck at his boot but It ran away quickly. Tiny yellow fellow that It was. It knew that men were dangerous. Even sleep Ing they might awake.

A few year -where would they be? Htrnnge little brothel spirits! He stretched bis hand ton-mil them, for bis heart went out to them out not one or the little ci-cntm.- came uearer him, and he watched tlieui gravely for a time.

The great movement for Improved road In the I'nlted Stales originated. It Is generally believed, In Ecx conn ty, N. J., more than 3d years ago. Some progressive men in the board of free holders ooucelviil the Idea of building system of hard roads by the nuic lani process, ami a special act was passed constituting a road board. The bulk of the cost was assessed tiimti the county at large and was provided for In the anmiiil taxes. Newark paid four-fifths of this tax. There was much opposition and constant protest. but the work went resolutely on . The good results soon became evi dent. K.ist Orange, Montchilr and oth er subttM's attracted the liest class of population, and handsome houses went up by the hundreds, while property price enormously ln Tensed. The roads built were of excellent workman ship and excited the wonder and a-1 miration of strangers who drove over them. I'nlon county snlweqtiontly pro cured law for county aid to road building, auj tbe woik was prosecuted there With the ituuie eii'-iy and good rmult. This led to the euaettuent of the Uiw for ti:te aid. under which hun dred of mill- of lien improved road have been l,ui!t in all sevtlou of the osate. In Kex county the Improve ment has on nuiler the state aid '-t until the louuty Is a network of food roads. l"or road Improvement projected for the p:eseut year the Cuun ty will pay aiFO'tt The law li ihm-s one-third of the cost cf new r.xid on the state, 10 per cent oo the property owners and the bulnnce on the county. By the new law township t-n petition indepeudeutly of the Ix.ard of frc holder for state aid, aud thl will promote road build ing in counties which have been back ward by reason of the unwillingness of the cotin'y authorities to assume the county's share of the cost. Ciood Moada Praarresa. Since the good rmds movement was lHgun the state and counties of New Jersey have spent $2,U7.478 In Improv ing their highway, and up to Iec. Id last have completed 4rjl'-i mile of road. The state and counties of Mas sachusetts during the same period ex- pended -.C!7..'l'. and built more than mill's of road, which, according to Mr. Meiulcnhnll, Is as perfect a any of the remarkably highway of Europe. The Higliee-AriiiMtroiig bill became law In New York a little over two year ago, and there has been an annual ap propriation of ."o,0iO as state aid for the Improvement cf highway. New York Is far behind either Massa chusetts or New Jersey, nud effort will lie made at Intervals to show that If the commerce Is to tie retained and merchandise brought satisfactorily to the railroads and canals, upon which so much public money l being lavish ed, the lilghwnya must be Improved. Improving; the Roads. Between tho wheelmen and the farm er It ought to be posRlhlu to make the fjuestlon of national highway Improve ment a very live Issue, rienty of snb Jwts which are potty and absurd by contrast have won much attention in congress. It Is time that the Improve ment of public highways had Its nlmre of the Interest centered upon queer cn nal schemes and the improvement of dubious little rivers which can never have any commerce worthy of tho name.

The announcement that a bill had been presented to congress on behalf of the League of American Wheelmen asking for an appropriation of S,",00,- (XK) for good roads marked the begin ning of the good roads agitation as a national movement. Heretofore con- lined to the states. It I now In a fair way to become of national Importance and nute'he, ns predicted by ninny of the good road -4 enthusiasts, to lieeome I national xiliticnl Issue. Already there arc some who say that such no appropriation is not feasible Hid that there are small chances of the bill becoming a law. It may be new to this class to know that nil the ma chinery of the league has lieen at work an tills bill for the past six months, md every feature of It has been most arefully considered. It Is now thought in appropriate time to introduce It, mil from now on every effoit will be made to secure Its passage. The meth ods to be employed in its behalf have been part of the Investigations of the national plllcers of the league, and the eampnlgn outlined will lie carefully mil enthusiastically carried out. As for the merits of the bill, there an be no question. It Is a recognized fnct now t Hit t good highway are an conomical necessity. In which this eotmtry Is centuries Islilnd Europe. That such a bill will receive an extend h1 support cannot be doubted, as It la framed In the interests of wheelmen. farmers, atitomobill.sts and the com mercial community generally. Good Roads la Other C'oontrlr. There ore, ii Is estimated, 3tlO,tXiO miles of highway In the l.'nited Plates, tliout 10 per cent of the roads of all tho world. Omit Britain has 120,000 miles of roadways, and these are some if the best In the world. Germany ha 27r,00 miles of roads, and some of hem are as poor as the roadways of a proot country can be. France, which ha taken an enlightened view of the good roads question for many rear md has spent by governmental or local nithority more than 1.000,000,000 on ilgliways, has a road mileage of 330,- too, more than any other country. Itus- in, with an enormous area, has only .0.0(10 miles of roadways, while Italy, i smaller country, has f.",000. Wide Ires for heavy loads are prescrilied In ill these countries.
