Thergrande8t; bridges) of the -Romans
were aqueducts, but after centuries of
unrest the noblest" conceptions of architec
ture were realized in the Gothie churches.
There was little demand fo roads, bridges
and still less for aqueducts. Yet the
monks did not build cathedrals and mon
asteries only.v To them we owe the intro
duction of flatXarches. The Romans had
Dreferred semicircular arches, .which rare-
lly exceeded 70 feet in span. The founder
Of the Brothers of the Bridge, St. Bene
zet, adopted for his Rhone bridge of 1178
at Avignon, elliptical arches which had
their smaller radius of elevation at tte
crown instead of at the haunches. The
famous Pontes Vecchio at Florence and
the original Augustus bridge at Dresden
date from the "twelfth ceatury. The aque
duct of- Spojeto, whieh looks as if many
hih and narrow windows had been cut
Out of a massive wall, is thirteenth cen
tury Gothic work. So is the Devil's
bridge near Matorell, in the province of
Barcelona, Spain, with its apparently
reckless pointed arch, which is crowned
at its weakest part by a heavy tollhouse.
The builders no doubt understood that
the load did not endanger the structure.
The springings of this arch are certainly
of antique origin, Roman or Carthagin
ian; an inscription of the year 1760, when
the bridge was restored, ascribes the
foundation to Hannibal. The span of the
stone arch .over the Adda, .near Trezzo,
236 feet, built under Barnato Visconti of
Milan in 1370 to 1377, destroyed again in
wartime in 1416), has not been surpassed
yet. But the piers were in general made
unnecessarily heavy, and many a bridge
failed because the Roman art of laying
concrete foundations between .piles had
not been rediscovered from Vitruvius' for
gotten architecture. French engineers
first used caissons and suggested iron
bridges.
The first cast iron bridge, really com
pleted ;n,1779, however, anoT still stand
ing, Is, according to Engineering, the
well known Coalbrookdale bridge over the
Severn. The arch consists of five ribs.
It found many imitators the Pont des
Arts at Paris, with nine openings, and
the Southwark bridge of 1814, with a
center arch of 214 feet and a rise of 24
feet, are fine examples. Failures of some
of these bridges, however, brought an
other material to the front puddled iron
which helped us to suspension bridges.
The first specimens the Tees bridge at
Middleton in 1741; Telford's Menai
strait bridge; further, the bridge over
the Danube at Budapest, the handsomest
of its type probably, supported by two
rows of chains on each side, were link
bridges. Wire cables came over from the
United States about 1815. Some of these
bridges collapsed, almost all e. g., the
Sarine bridge at Fribourg, Switzerland,
with a span of 205 meters (870 feet) had
to be re-enforced. Boston Transcript.

AN INGENIOUS YOUTH.
How He Mended the Sleeve of Hia
Best Frock Coat.
T"he average bachelor has been forced
to learn to sew on buttons, but there, as
a general thing, his knowledge of the
gentle feminine art of mending ends.
His stockings are rejected when they be
come ragged, and the tailor repairs his
trousers, vests and coats, so that he
makes -a presentable appearance even if
he is sans wife, mother and sisters and
a knowledge of the needle.
One young man of this city has, how
ever, of necessity enlarged his sphere of
Lusefulness recently. It was on last Sun
day that his education received an unex
pected prodding.
The young man, dressed in his best,
was on his way to church, whence he
was .to go on home to dinner with some
friends. He was late for service, as
young men usually are, and so, as he
hurried on, he tripped and fell, slid a
minute on one elbow, then arose a sad
and disheveled youth.
When he had gathered himself togeth
er, had smoothed his high hat and looked
his tie over, he examined the elbow which
had acted as a toboggan. Sure enough,
there was a small hole in the sleeve of
his frock coat. Then the man was at his
wits' end. In two hours he was due at a
dinner at which there were sure to be
several of his smartest friends. The rent
showed plainly, and he had no one to
darn it for him.
He started home gloomily, had a bright
thought and quickened his pace.
"What any ignorant woman can do I
can do," he said through his set teeth as
he took off the coat.
He ripped the lining at the bottom of
the sleeve1 and cut off a small piece of
the turned up part. This he raveled,
threaded the ravelings in a needle which
he borrowed from the man in the next
room and darned the hole.
In and out, up and down, he went with
infinite patience, and in 30 minutes no
one would have known that the sleeve
had ever been torn. Then the man hem
med the sleeve lining again, brushed the
coat, put it and his hat on and went to
church.
And his meditations didn't seem to be
at all disturbed during the sermon by the
thought that all the stitches he had put
in that Sunday morning would have to
be pulled out with his nose in Durcratory.
To the contrary, he merely grinned as he
thought of the adage, 'The better the day
the better the deed." Baltimore News.

"Brummagem."
The folk word, handed from father to
eon for uncounted generations, is sure to
be right, though modified slightly perhaps
by smoothing a harsh sound; the spelled
word was Invented we know not when
iior by whom, but long centuries after.
''Brummagem" is the leading instance' of
this ruler Tr represents Bromwicham,
the old name- of ;'the. place t softened by

A Perfect Balance
Of mind and body was the Roman
idea of perfect health. They de
fined this balance as a sound
mind in a sound bod,y. A weak
or sickly body tends to drag down
the mind to its own level. Keep
the body in health and the mind
will take care of itself. The health
of the body depends mainly on two
things: A sound stomach and pure
blood. Dr. Pierce's Golden Med
ical Discovery preserves the bal
ance of health, because it makes
the stomach, strong and the blood -pure.
People who had not?had a
well day in vears, nervous of body,
depressed of mind, have been per
fectly cured by the use of Golden
Medical Discovery.?
