A. \V. engineer, who was appointed Provincial-i Instructor of RoziiLnl-ring of Ontario“. by an Orderâ€"int‘ounfil, date] April 15,| 1896. Since then he has been lecturing! and working’ at the good roads prob-: last all over the. country. His official1 report has re-m-ntly been issued, and? contains much valuable information. Mr. Campbell notes the fact that the: improvement of roads in Ontario has not kept pace with the progress made along other lines. He illustrates his system of personally pointing out road- way defects to Boards of Works, exam- ining available material, deciding on the l best system, and presenting the Council with an oral report, in addition to an: address, covering the ground. 1896 he visited the following places: Towns and villagesâ€" Cobourg, Arn- prior, lngersoll, \‘v'incliester, Pembroke, Seaforth, Berlin, Orangeville,Brighton, Carleton Place, Iroquois, Gait, Clinton, Paisley, Barrie, Port Hope. Cornwall, Morrisburg, Newmarket, Woodstock, Paris. !

Hallowell. I The report advocates a. reorganiza- tion of the statute labour laws, especi- ally as.to the collection of the road tax, which is now said to beineffectual, wasteful and unjust. In Malden Town- ship, in Essex County, the people abolâ€" ished the statute labour system by byâ€"law. The vote was two to one, and they are now framing plans for a new system. \VIIERE THE FAULT LIES. important one, and if tires of suitable Width were used, a very great part‘of the road question would be solved. The proper application of the energy which 15 now wasted would, he thinks, give us asystem of roads that would render the good roads movement unnecessary. .As a country we should conserve our energies and exercise them in the most. judicious manner. we should learn of the history of roads in countries where they dated back a thousand years, and not waste money in speculative efforts. The question is both very broad and very local. No one. class of pavement can be clearly spcmfied for all streets, and no one close or road can be adopt- ed in rural‘districts, but these can all be divided into classes and placed be fore councils and the people in sucha man-tier as to materially aid in propor- tioning pavements to requirements, and to the ability 0.1 the various communiâ€" ties. lhere are the country roads which are leasttravelled; there are those more heavily travelled leading to highways; there ans the main highways which carry the traffic of extensive areas; there is another class of roads most largely travelled of all, necessarily rare, which verge finally into the streets of large Cities; there are the streets of villages, .of towns, of cities, all of vary- ing requirements, regarding which the most reliable information should be [ll'tX‘lll‘t‘tL There are materials suit- able for all classes of roads, and there areprinciplesinvolved in the construc- tion of pavements as with any other structure. ‘ SOME SUGGESTIONS. the streets and roiuls has never been collected with sufficient accuracy to permit a close statement of this ele- ment of our national taxation. Enough is known. however to warrant the asâ€" sertion that it is millions annually. Of this vast sum the greater part is wasted in illâ€"contrived. and temporary repairs needed to keep the roads in a passable condition in the present state of our taxation it is difficult to expect the people to impose a special tax to speedily improve tountry roads generally. It will be found that loat- tain the end in view the best plan is to ameinble as far its possible the forces at work. tmhnxiitmting the expendi- ture of money and diverting to durable as much as possible of that which is now paid for morch tein :orary repairs. The most reasonable explanation of exâ€" isting conditions is to be found in the. little attention which has been paid to the effect and value of good roads. This in turn has permitted the admin~ LSII‘IIIII)D of our laws to be neglected. and has not stimulated sufficient thought to develop an efficient organi- zation of the ways and means available. ho city, limp. or township, county or province can afford to rely solely up- on iis own efforts. but each should be a source of exwrience for the other. and all should be able to draw upon the experience of other hinds.pzist and present. to the fullest extent. There is a great deal of past experience on whicth draw. but there IS moreim- portant. present and future experi- once which should be indexed and mad-3 available for reference. The report contains about 100 pages. and is full from cover to cover with valuable information which every niuniciinl council will do Well to take to itself. Much interest is beinz taken in this (rum-lion and many have been waiting anxiously for the report. up- on this new departure of Government work.

Sentinel. The little village of Petit:odiac is situated in the southâ€"easterly part of New Brimswick, on the line of the A Interrolonial Railway. Mr. Herbert Yoeiimns, who resides there, follows the oriipation ofa hunter and trapâ€" per. His occupation requires him to lenduz‘e agreat. deal of exposure and hardship. more especially when the snow lies thick and deep on the ground in our cold winters. A few years ago Mr. Yeomarns tells our correspondent that he wasseized withasevere bilious attack and acomplication of diseases, such as sour stomach, sick headache and rheumatism. Mr. Yoemans' ver- sion of the facts arezâ€"“I became very ill and suffered the most excruciating pains in my arms, legs and shoulders, so much so that I could not positions I fre- quentl when appetite was very poor. and if I .ate anything at all. no matter how light the food was, it gave meadull, heavy feeling in my stomach, which would be followed by vomiting, I suffered so intensely with pains in my arms and shoulders that I could scarcely raise my hands to my head. I tried different remedies, but _all to no pur- pose. A. neighbor came in one evening a. box, and before the pills were all gone, I began to improve. This en- couraged me to purchase more and in a few weeks the pain in my shoulders and arms were all gone, and I was able to get a good night's rest. My appe- tite came back and the dull. list- less feeling left me. I could eat a. hearty meal, and have no bad after effects and I felt strong and well en- ough as though I had taken a new lease of life. My old occupation beâ€" came a pleasure to me and I think nothing of tramping eighteen or twenty miles a day. I know from ex- perience and I fully appreciate. the wonderful results of r. \Villiams' Pink Pills as a safe and sure cure and I would urge all those afflicted with rheumatism or any other ailment, toi try Pink Pills as they create new vigor, build up the shattered nervous system and make a new being of you.

A CLEVELAND’S WIFE BEATER. Drunkard Nearly Kills Ills “’lre “'lio um] I Born:- lllm ll. Child Three Days Before. A fifteenâ€"year-old girl rushed from ' the house 28 Borge street, Cleveland, Ohio, late on Saturday afternoon shriek- ing for the police.

A blow on the head, none too gently ap- plied, sent him reeling to the wall, and the police snapped the manacles on him before he could recover. 'l he woman‘s face, head and body were covered with great wells, showing where the blows had fallen. In places the flesh was three days ago. On Saturday the bus- band returned home drunk. He com- manded his wife to get out of bed and prepare his dinner. She protested that she was too ill. Enraged, the man seized the cat-o’-nine-tails and beat her. Frightened, she got up and tried to do as crdered. ’l‘oo weak to stand, she fell over and sank into a chair. Crazed ‘ ;L~ with anger, the husband renewed the assault, and blow after blow was ruined upon the woman. She rolled scious from the chair, and then it was that the police. summoned by the cou- ple’s daughter. burst in upon the Scene. ‘l‘he woman was taken to a hospital.

Stoppln: the Flock at a Death or Birth Ll still l’rm-tlccd The superstitions which have cluster- ed about the closing scene of human life are flill‘ikbt innumerable; some, perhaps, the greater portion, now seem to lie zueunnigiws. but a few had in early days it significance which they have since lost. The stopping of the clock at the moment {1 death Ut‘t'lll‘.‘ in the. house is still practiced in many fam- ilies in this cou‘iiizrv and Europe. and v v originated in the law: that according to the laws of several European states it. was necessiry to have evidence of - r the exact moment of births and deaths occurring in the royal family. When a. king died an attendant was always f present. whose duty it was to stop the v clock in the royal apartment at the moment when death occurred, and the timepiece was thus a mute record of the event. From the royal families the descent of this plastics to aristocratic, and, finally, to families of low degree was easy, and many persons adopted . it. as a mere superstition without_know- - ing anything of its former significance.
