The'city of IVrn, ft* this State, has hit upon a very excellent and cheap plan of constructi-i^f roads into the Surrounding agricultural districts.-- From gravel trains, or convenient de­ posits of gravel,^he material is loaded upon grain wagons on their way home --a small suin being paid' for hauling --and when the load reaches the point whete road construction h being car­ ried on, the same Ik dumped by those Inchaigeof the construction, aided by the farmer himself. In this way the road is built at u very light expense and everybody benefited most materi­ ally. The movement in Peril was commenced some time ago, and one good roftd hat been completed through several townships, while another is un­ der way. The roads of the West are natnrally very bad throughout a great portion of the year. The soil, so peculiarly fitted for grain-raising, is particularly heavy and clogging to the wheels of vehicles In the raii.jr months. To traverse the country roads when in this condition amounts to nothing short of cruelty to the animals driven. The horse­ flesh annually used'up, from struggling in the mire of our Western roadways would construct miles of good through- fares, if cost were taken Into consider­ ation. *4 It is a happy fact thatft^vtr? little of the excellent gravel which abounds in the West goes far toward the im­ provement of our prairie roads when properly laid down. A lesson should be derived trorn the Peru system, aiid. the Highway Commissioners of the various.States, by freighting gravel to the nearest station,should •join with the farmers in bleesing with good roads the many regions of the great West now cursed with bad ones. Let miles on mile's of roadway be made in this may .--Chicago Journal. , . _ ^ Warning--One of our most intelli­ gent-Citizens came into our office last Week, and as he sat down asked: ?*l)o you believe In warnings danger "No'"* we replied, "we don't quite think so, but still are iu a little doubt. Why?" "Well.'* says he, D. K. Tlireshuiire was awaked by an ugly iiupreseioii -the other night, when rising and looking out of hi£ window he saw a snail stand­ ing at the open stable door'. The man evidently saw the light as the curtain raised and slipped around to the other side of the barn. Threshuiire dressed •himself and going to the stable, found one spau of his horses harnessed ready tolead out, with robes, whips, etc.. in the buggy." These were saved by ait,. impression of danger to a sleeping man. Now you wise ones tell us how tliis cAtae.Sandwich Argutt.

This is came into my offtce once to give me a thrashing about a little difference we had once in regard to the settlement of a small estate. I listened to him cool­ ly and deliberately. Then when I saw he was about to strike, ( pulled out my eye aud laid it o:: the table, as if It was a disposed ot motion. That mau went down stairs on the outside of the building. Still, he could have got away with me if he had persisted. I was out the other day for a wullc when a couple of ladies approached me, ask­ ing for alius. As if to cogitate upon the ailments of the world, I took out my knife and unconsciously picked at the glass optio this way, (illustrating). They left their baskets on the ground, and though I offered to put up for their oausc, nothing could head them off. But it iS'iu the street car that i have the inost fun. Taking my six o'elock car at the starting point, of"course 1 secure a seat. Very soon the seats arc crowd* ed with men, and ladies oome In. I shut my good eye, so, (Illustrating^ and level the dead eye on the man I want to have raised to make robin for the lady. Iu time it w||i bring a mau to his feet. There's something in the stare ot a dead eye that will make ^a man's blood like it was put on ice. I h»ve cleaned a whole car out fn this way, and had the thauks of the ladles voted. I never put up a cent iu church ou a collection. I set the eye on the deacou and he never shoves the box un­ der my nose. There is only oue time when it causes me annoyance, and that is when my boy loses the'taw* he shoots with, and hi* mother oomes to me and asks me to loan the boy my glass eye until nfter school. Give a boy a glass eye and he will never stop until lie drops it in a rat-hole," Considering liajHjis other eyo is good, his artifi­ cial optic is almpst »s valuable as a natural oue. i'erhaps it ought to bl spelt a wou-eyeil man iu this case. -^8 A day ty two since a quiet and dignified gentleman was walking through the street when he was start­ led by a woman who rushed up to him, all out of breath, and, seizing hint by the arm, gesticulated wildly and pant­ ed out: "Whistle! sir, whistle!" He finally found breath to tell her that he wasn't much of a'whistler, but if she would nouiiuat^the tune lie would do the best he 'could. Her eyes flashed, and she showed decided anger. With one arm stretched out toward a re­ treating street car. she shook him off and said something which sounded to him like: "Ooufouiul a fool that can't whistle for a horse oar to accommo­ date a lady." cloJiln vvi&v.# Mr. A*, JSfalger, Taylorville, |>a., writes: 31 y mother, an old lady of sixty years suflered for thirty years with Kheuma- t is in, to such an extent that she was at times entirely latue.

There be now at sea a sltippe(for our friend Esias Hoidcraft of London did advise me by the last pscket that It would sail some time in August) called jre Welcome, R. Green whs. Master, which has aboard a hundred or more of ye heretics and innltgmints called Quakers with W, Penu, who is ye scainp at the head of them. Ye Gen­ eral Court has accordingly given secret orders to Master Malaclii Hnxeit.-- Welcome as near ya coast of Codd as maybe, and make captives of ye said Penu and his ungodly crew, to that ye Lord may be glorified and not mocked on yc soil of this new country with ye heathen worshipps Of these people. Much spoil can be made by selling je whole lot to Barbadoes, where slaves fetch good prices iu rumme and sugar; and ye shall not only do ye Lord good service by puiiishing ye wicked, but shall make gayne for his ministers and people.

T. Stewart It was once asked of A. T. Stewart by a very old merchant, to explain the fact that, being very widely known and very long established, what need had he of newspaper advertising. A. T. Stewart considered the question for a few moments and: observed: "Com­ petitors are springing up i:i every part of New York, and apparently dolug a prosperous business. Now If my facil­ ities were universally recognised or acknowledged, as you say, intelligent buyers would always give me the t first preference. To procure the first pref­ erence from discriminating purchasers is the sole motive of all my newspaper advertising. I want to make It known to every one that I can sell something forcents when other merchants are asking 10 cents for the same tiling. Wheu 1 can make this element Iu my i business universally recognised bv tlw [ public, I will then discontinue news­ paper advertising." it was ieported in Chicago. s 11th that all the grain otevajM** lit Urn* city w ere filled to their ntmost capacity and that many railroads worn i^fMhtgf to receive further conslgwpMnt*.
