It means that ho toils and he hopes day by day That Heaven will attend to the rest. He is jostled aside by the hurrying crowd. Unsought by the lonely; forgot by the proud. He earns what he geta. and no more is allowed To the fellow who's "doing his best." But whenever a crisis arises, we look To the man who is doing his best.

A merchant in Chestnut street has become very fond of an office boy he engaged last June. The boy entered ery early in the morning when the merchant was reading the paper. The' latter glanced up and went on reading without speaking. After three minutes the boy said: "Excuse me?but I'm in a hurry?" "What do you want?" he was asked. "A job.' "You do? Well,' snorted the man of business, "why are you in such a hurry?" "Got to hurry," replied the boy.

Lyons, Nici and Marseilles. In consequence of tlii undertaking, says the dispatch, then is likely soon to be a considerably in creased demand for American petro leum throughout France. So it appears that crude petroleun as a "dust killer." which has been triei repeatedly in the United States ant generally abandoned as ineffective and for other reasons, undesirable,still find: favor among the Frenchmen. It wai reported a short time ago that tin Touring Club of France, desirous of in creasing the comforts of its members had voted a large sunt of money foi the purpose of conducting a series ol experiments on various roads witl heavy American petroleum and als<: with thick mineral oil. During tin last twelve years, it is said, numerous avenues of St. Gaudens. in France have been kept dustlcss by the fre< use of oil and tar. which render the surfaces absolutely impervious to wat er, rnd hence mudless. These mate rials, declared La Locomotion recently are the only ones known to science which will ell'ectually prevent the crea^ tion of dust on roads traversed by fast vehicles. The most extensive application ol crude petroleum in the United States for the purpose indicated has been made by the railroad companies, but several of them have expressed their determination to discontinue its use for various reasons, one of which is that the fine soot-like particles which arise from the roadbeds whereon it is spread arc extremely objectionable. In California crude petroleum has been employed freely during the past year or more as a cement. There it is usually applied while a road is in process of construction, and it is invariably applied hot. Minor experiments of a similar sort, however, undertaken in the East, have been conspicuously unsuccessful, and the coal oil remedy is regarded hereabouts as a failure. Possibly its efficacy depends largely upon the quality of soil treated.?New York cun. Tel">nl TaRp, .1f?a rr? To". Where the material ?s springy on the line of a proposed highway, a telford base of eight inches and a macadam top of five inches should he provided, making thirteen Inches over all. On a gravel foundation the Highway Commoner of Connecticut lias used a fiveinch treatment, four inches of macadtin and one inch of bonding and wearing surface. Upon some of the roads lie lias used a foundation of slag, with t two-inch treatment of crushed stone ind one Inch of screenings, making a very good road. The engineers put on the profile for his information the cliartcter of the material found at each station. so that he can select the most ?conomical treatment. Where macadam is laid with no curbing to retain the stone in ihc position that it should occupy, it is essential to build a very solid, compact and firm shoulder of the very best material. This very valuable precaution does not receive adequate attention. In the forming of shoulders the rule with contractors Is to line out of the road tnd establish the height of the shouller. and where shoulders are to be made to build the shoulder material Hush up to the line, instead of allowing the material to leak over into the traveled part not less than from eight to ten inches. This gives an opportunity for ramming the shoulders down, good and solid and then cutting back to the line, thus forming a good firm edge to work to. When shoulders are thus made the metal used In the roadbed la retained In position, and does not work out into the shoulders, robbing the road of material that properly belongs to It. Hope* to See More Great Highway*. It Is a fact that since the establishment of steam and electric railroads rt/sriotrnntlAn nf At* hnilld. vards, has suffered much, except roads built for comparatively short distances. This, of course, has been a nautral result, as traveling by private carriage, drawn by horses, has long since given way to the swifter steam motor railroad traveling, and the railroads have literally become the highways of the nation. But within the last few years there has beeu a most commendable revival of interest in good roads, and as a factor toward this end the humble bicycle played 110 unworthy part. The introduction of the automobile promises to result in the construction of rangnilieeut thoroughfares of great extent, and I am glad that this is so. One who travels through a country on a railroad train learns nothing of the district through which he is whirled at express speed, xxiere is no rem pieasnro in such traveling; In fact, it is not traveling in the real sense of the term; it is simply being hurled from one point to another wth the gheatest possible haste. It has always seemed to me that the old-time fashion of traveling by stage coach or private carriage, stopping to rest at will, pausing to drink in the delights of a particularly fine bit of scenery, putting up at fashionable hostelry or humble farm Jbouse or roadside inn, according to fapcy, was the only real / ' i i \ j i - ?

I ev s day It BOERS' BELIEF IN PRAYER. ,orc o Dav of Int*rrf???lnn in Cn-taml Caused Tlieiu to Lose Confidence. a According io some of the correspondonts of Loudon papers. who went through the South African war. it was not the series of victories which e resulted from the tactics of Lord Roberts, not the surrender of Crouje. not e the entry cf the British troops into Bloerafonioin and Johannesburg, which caused the Boers first to lose their belief that they were hound to suej cced. j It was the news. which spread like I wildfire among the burghers, in spite of all the efforts of their clergymen ^ ^ and leaders to hush it up. that the 5 British nation had set apart a day in order to pray to the Almighty for the success of its cause in South Africa. r{Mn This solemn Day of Intercession was ford ' February 11. 1900. Of course the Boers f did not know anything about it until on->J soine time afterward, but when the it. ; news reached them, its effect was. it I is stated, extraordinary. The great *a;j' majority of the burghers, until then, it ii did not believe that the British had A ) any faith in the efficacy of prayer. ^um That the men who were fighting them = were also convinced of the justice of ^ their cause and could ask God for His aid was a staggering blow. ^or And then the Boers becan to discuss [ a remarkable coincidence?the fact AVr ' that on the day- when the British * * nation collectively prayed for Divine , aid General' French crossed into Boer P territory on the expedition which soon ^ afterward resulted in the raising of { ; the siege of Kimberley. the first of the | besieged towns which was relieved by _ . the British troops. mo] From that day on Great Britain's ^ arms prevailed. The Boers, lost one ^e] advantage after another, and the word ^ again went around among the burgher | t^? camps that this extraordinary change ! ^ in the position of affairs had followed ) the Day of Intercession in the United I Kingdom. The effect. as one writer j says, was overwhelming. He adds: "Without the least affectation this j N Intercession in the day of punishment . was regarded l>y many (of the Boers) j ^ as the most terrible, as well as the j j*ve least expected weapon that the Eng- j j"en lish could use. and among even the j pile most irreligious there ran a sudden the foreboding of ill." ther ham WORDS OP WISDOM. Language was given to us that we ^ might say pleasant things to each oppc other. Many of us have just enough religion to make us bate, but not enough to j make us love one another. >j Be as cheerful as you can In well- ! doing. There is a double grace in good j ? actious when they are done Cheerfully I and brightly. i There is nothing selfish in religion. The more you give away, the more you have. If you can keep all your religion ; to yourself, you may be sure you have a religion that is not worth anything. One great secret of happiness is never to allow your euorgies to stag- . nate. The old proverb about too ? many irons in the tire is a lie. Have V them all in?shovel, tongs, poker and M all. The more the better. Hpc Once receive, and then determine to g ^ carry out that resolve, and it is astounding to note with what marvelous ease everything makes way Cor you. provided there be no innate weakness tfei ' "? nuncae *?A11 tn llCfli.

What a child would do in the eye of his father, and a pupil before his tutor, " aud a wife in the presence of her bus* baud, and a servant tn the sight of his foo master, let us always do the same; for we are made a spectacle to God, to ou angels, and to men; we are always tn an<3 the sight and presence of the oil-seeing tha and almighty God. to ( Selfishness is one great cause of loneliness. If a man builds walls around ^ himself so that he may keep all that he has to himself, he soon buds that be has built walls around himself net which shut out all that might come in tor to him from others. So It is possible mo1 that the cure of loneliness may be the wa: overcoming of selfishness. / Perfume a Medicine. Modern science is returning to the old belief that perfume has medicinal and ? health-giving properties, says the Wornan's Home Companion. Perhaps, pny- ttoo sicians say, the Orientals were not wrong In claiming that a proper use of is < scents prolonged life and enhanced all beauty. Violet Is said to be especially J?ai valuable in its properties. It is suitable for nervous people, aud the violet ^ cure for cancer is com'ng to be thought effective. All the dtrene scents, bergauiot, neroli and orange flower water arc refreshing and act as mild stimu- rap lants. Lavender water is also refresh- KM ing and very valuable to people of highstrung temperament; it is very soothing and quieting in its effects. Jasmine I ?* tones and braces the system, and in combination with neroli it is very high- ne ly to be commended for persons of nervous temperament. It is to be ob- . served that* all these flower scents * must bo pure and derived directly from ?* the blossoms themselves.
