WRONG IMPRESSION AHOUT ENGINEERING DEPT. FUND There is a wrong impression exist ing in the minds of many people re garding the five per cent cnginnor's fund which is attached to all street and scwor improvement work. Some cyen going so far ns to assert that the City Engineer draws his snlnry and ill addition gets five per cent of the total cost of every job. The folloy of this can be seen by citing a single in stance. Tho contract for pavng First Street was let for something over $18,000. Now if the engineer was to got five per cent of this ho woul get n rnke-ofT on that one job nlono of $900, and there have been many oth er contracts nearly as large. It can thcrcforo be seen that if tho engineer received five per cent of every job he would soon bo levied upon by the government for nn income tax. The facts in tho matter are simply these. Tho five per cent goes into tho fund of the engineering department to pay expenses of that department. Re sides tho city engineor, who draws a salary of $125 per month, there is nn assistant engineer, and there must bo chainmen and helpers on every job. Tho fivo per cent hardly pays tho ex penses of this department, and as for the enginneer getting tho money Is concerned; he never sees a cent of it, except his salary which he draws from month to month.

JUST A BOY'S IDEA. i i It Made the Invention of the Reaping Mfachlne a 8ucceee. In 1830 Obed nussey of Ohio was In venting a reaping machine, the first ever designed In this country. His chief difficulty was tho cutting device, which was three large sickles set In a fta mo and revolved so as to cut Into tho grain. It would not work satlsfae torlly. A young son, watching the expert mcnts, asked his father why ho did not use a lot of big scissors, with ono ban die fastened to ono bar and the other handlo to n sliding bar, thus opening and closing them. Ilussey instantly adopted tho idea, substituting for scissors tho two saw toothed blades which are In common use today on harvesters, tho cutting action being qutto similar to that of scissors. From tho boy's suggestion ho per fected In ono week a machlno on which 'ho had in vain excrclscti nil his In. genulty for tho preceding two years. Tho principle of that cutting devlco Is tbo principle of all of tho great harvest Ing machines, and its benefit to tbo farming Industry of the entire world has been unsurpassed, by any other In vention for .usofonMbo Jarra.

"And now, Boebo," said sho ono day, you shall sco that what I have taught you Is more than mere words. You are to accompany mo to tho public kitchen, where I servo fifty poor schoolboys. You shall help me." But tho Httlo cannibal shook his head sndly. "Oh, missy," ho said, "I'm not hun gry.
