lie had received a telegram that an
old friend of his English days, who
was returning to England from Mex-
ico via tlie States, would be at the
Palmer House on a certain morning.
He had not seen the uian for eight
years and his face was utterly for-
gotten. The hotel clerk could give
no further information than that
the Englishman in question was
somewhere in the rotunda and that
he wore light-checkered trousers.
Whereupon the English-American be-
gan to scrutinize all the trousers that
sat, stood, or walked within the ro-
tunda. At last he saw a pair that
seemed to answer the description
They tltted badly, moreover. The
owner carried a stout stick, wore
sort of shooting-jacket, and an air of
independence. The looker-on thought
to himself: "I believe that must be
an Englishman. But yet " Then
his eyes glanced downward until they
reached the boots. The sight was
enough. It recalled memories that
nothing else had been able to awake.
He went up to the man with the
boots and was not mistaken. It was
his old friend. Afterward the ac-
cent and such phrases as: "<), I say,

I7.uk Walton was one of those
gentle souls much heard of and
alluded to, an author of tmoks on
angling that have great celebrity arid
few readers. Izaak lived t-i a green
old age. He was just 90 when 1c-
took the halt dropped by death and
was landed in the Klysian fields.
His life was gentle and contempla-
tive, but he himself said nothing so
much in praise of fishing is his friend
Sir Henry Wotton. whom he quotes
"a most dear lover and frequent pra• -
ticer of the art of angling, of which
he would say, ' 'Twas an em-
ployment for his Idle time, which
was then not Idly s|ient. a test to his
mind, a cheerer to his spirits, a di-
verter of sadness, a calmer of unquiet
thoughts, a moderator of passions, a
procurer of contentedness;' and 'that
it begat habits of peace and patience
in those that professed and practiced
It.'"
It Is the lover of old IxMiks rather
than the lover of the fishing to I
who knows Izank Walton, and pre-
cise knowledge of his fame Is confined,
therefore, to a email number of Kn-
glish readers. The fisherman to-day
would care very little alsmt his advice
concerning tin* manner in which
bait should lie attached to the hook,
as witness: "Thus us -your frog I'ut

('out nf Bad Uoari*.
The Board of Trade in a Tennessee
town, in a recent memorial to the .
legislature, demonstrated, according
to the Engineering Magazine, that
bad roads were costing the people of
that commonwealth more than iT.- ,
000,000 annually. Professor W. W.
Carson, of the University of Tennes-
see. after careful investigation, found
the average cost of hauling 11 the .
Knoxville market by wagon to tie
17.50 per ton—aggregating $1,250,- |
000 a year on the total tonnage j
hauled. He maintained that this]
hauling could have been done for
half the sum over good dirt roads and j
for one-sixth of itiiver good macadam
roads, saving 91,000,000 annually,
l'rofes or llichard T. Ely, of the Johns
Hopkins t'nlvcrsity and Secretary of
the American Economic Association,
affirmed that poor roads cost this
country over $20 a horse, and Prof.
Jenks, of Knox College, Illinois,
thinks 115 a horse a low estimate for
this loss. Mr. Hord. a former Com-
missioner of Agriculture for the
State of Tennessee, estimated the
numlier of bores, mules and asses in
that State, in 1S99. at 476,000. The
number has increased since his es-
timate, but taking this numlier and
the lowest estimated loss per hor-e,
say 116, and an aggregate loss of $7.-
140,000 a year for one State is shown.
From tables calculated by Professor
Carson, for an agricultural ex|ieri-
ment station, it was shown that on
gravel a horse will draw nearly one-
and-a-half times the load, and on
macadam, over three times the load
he can draw on a dirt road. Of
course there Is great economy of
drawing power in the propT grading
of roads, and disregard of this fact
lia- wasted largi
in the road building of the past. The
greater speed attained on scientifical-
ly graded and patent race tracks

Speaking of apples. Prof. Faraday
says: "There is scarcely an article ol
vegetable food more widely useful

The Cigarette £v!l.
Considering what very | ior things
cigarettes are. It is surprising that
they should have got such a hold on
the community. But, bad as they
are, they are extremely fascinating.
The use of them, when carried to ex- I
cess, becomes a habit that Is most
difficult to break, while they are so
cheap and so convenient that it takes
exceptional discretion to smoke them i
at all without smoking them to a ,
deleterious extent Of course It Is
prltnarly because they are co cheap
that they appeal so generally to hoys;
but even with hoys, who ought not to
