To the elee who Iive along its_ line a

person, satee: the Railway Age.. It IS popular
or unpopuler, just SS individual is
among those who deW with him'. In many
eases. the.people who have businessHone, with it seem to be proud of the road
—they brag of • it and speak of it with
affection. They e .give it -a nickname
eiPreseive- their kindly feelinge, - as
soldieri3. de to the _generel they love, .0f the
public to the politiciab for whom it has
. an admiring affection. Teat the favorable
regard of the .publie is of. .decided oasit
value to a railway it deeds no argument to
prove. In these days when the whistles of
mai locomotiVes-ef coMpteting .roadie may
, be heard at alrooet every eel:iv/el station,'
the importance of having the good -will of

creating a. belt ol. hatred as 1014 SS the

suffered, People do not forget bueh things:

the English GLOW gave them up as a
failure.. About ten years ago: however, it
tried a new system of wooden pavements -
or,' rather, a 'combination ot wood and stone
--which didvery well. The stone-- founda-
tion was made of concrete, ceneenti gravel
and sand, and stretched; ii an arch from
curb to ourb, readily.eupportingthe trafll�
that rolled over it. Wooden blocks were
laid lipou thie as a cushion for the _horses'
• feet and the ears ot •the public, and held
together by asphalt. The new pavement
gradually won its way to popular layer in
London, and is now essentially the pave-
ment of t4at city.' lu_ the last ten years 58
