REPAIRING RoADS.-Thorough re-
pairing of roads can only be done at pro-
per seasons. It is worse than useless to
"work" on them in the winter, or early
springtime, in the mode so frequently
adopted. Putting soft earth into holes
where water is standing, is merely in
creasing the draft on teams in the ratio
of the thickness of mud compared with
water. Where deep holes or ruts exist
the water standing in them must be
drawn off, and these holes. at the proper
season, may then be filled and levelled.
Unfortunately, overseers consult their
own convenience, and the convenience
of the parties required by law to work
on roads, rather than the best time to
work on roads,, with view to the best
results. Beyond the draining off the
water standing on the road-bed, no
work should be done on dirt roads be-
tween October and May, except. possi-
bly,, in bottoms or swamps, where sOme-
thing besides dirt lie absolutely needed
to bridge over quagmires. The best
time to do thorough work on ordinary
roads, ia May or June, when the frost Is
entirely out of the ground, and the sun
will quickly dry the surface, thus al
lowing every passing vehicle to beat
down the bed more firmly. Unfortu-
nately for the roads, this is a season
when the demands OF the farm are too
urgent to allow attention to roads.
When the crops are laid by-say in Ju-
~ or Augustus the next best time;
but the work is often done in Novem-
Der, when it is virtually thrown away,
or worse than thrown away. Over
seers should be fined as often for work.
ing at improper times, and in improper
ways, as for not working at all. One
simple matter is often neglected-that
is, having trees left on the sunny side,
preventing the drying out of the road.
One tree so left is often the cause of
a miserable mud-hole, and that one
mud-hole often ruins good team.

Medicinal Qualities Of Butterm ilk.

For summer beverage there can be
nothing more healthy and strengthen
ing than buttermilk. It is excellent for
weak or delicate stomgchs. and far bet
ter as dinner drink than coffee, tea or
water, and, unlike them, does not re-
tard, but rather aids digestion.
A celebrated physician once said that
if every one knew the value of butter
milk as drink, it would be more free
ly partaken of by persons who drink 30
excessively of other beverages; and fur
ther compared its effects upon the sys.
tenn to the cleaning out of cook stove
that has been clogged up with ashes that
have sifted through, filling up every
crevice and crack, saying that the hu-
man system is like the stove, and col
lects and gathers refuse matter that can
in no way be exterminated from the
system SO effectually as by drinking
buttermilk. 1t is also specific remedy
for indigestion, soothes and quiets the
nerves, and is very somnolent to those
who are troubled with sleeplessness.
There is something strange in the fact
that persons who are fond of buttermilk
never tire of singing its praises, while
those who are not fond of it never weary
of wondering how some people can
drink it. So far as is possible, people
should overcome their aversion to it,
and learn to drink it for health's sake.
One gentleman of our acquaintance is
so extremely fond of IL that we knew
him one time to drink about three
glasses, then set his glass down with a
thud, exclaiming earnestly as he smack
ed his lips: "That's food and raiment
BOTH" While another buttermilk en-
thusiast made the statement once that
where the liver has become lifeless from
torpidity and inaction, and is too dead
to perform its functions, buttermilk will
cause new one to grow in. Whatever
exaggerated statements may have been
made concerning buttermilk, its medi-
cal properties cannot be overrated, and
it should be more freely used by all who
can get it. Every one who values good
health should drink buttermilk every
day in warm weather, and let tea, cof-
fee and water alone.
For the benefit of those who are not
already aware of it, may add, that in
the churning the first process of diges-
ton is gone through, making it one of
the easiest and quickest of all things to
digest.
It makes gastric juice and contains
properties that readily assimilate with
it, with little or no wear upon the di-
gestive organs.

EulOgy OF the Confederate Flag.

In Gen. w. Fitzhugh Lees grafton at
the recent unveiling of the Stonewall
Jackson monument at New Orleans,
occurs the following eulogy of the Con-
federate flag
"Furl that banner softly, slowly treat
it gently; it is holy, for it droops above
the dead Gye it is holy, holy, because
beneath its luttering folds fought and
died the sons of the South holy, be-
cause it was planted amid the whirlwind
of shot and shell upon many victori-
GUS battlement by the ruler of the South.
ern troops before it was furled forever;
holy, because the men who fought with
Lee and Jackson wreathed it around
with glory holy, because 1t was once
the banner of the soldier whose heart
snapped from the woes of his people,
and who rode into the presence of his
Maker with not one blot upon his
knightly shield; holy, because 1t
moved steadily upon the crested front
of the heaving billOws of death at the
command of this soldier at Richmond
and at Sharpsburg; holy, because 1t
beckoned on columns of fiery Confed-
crates at Charlottesville, dictated by
the genius of this commander, SO that
his great lieutenant might die and pass
through the wide open portals Of
heaven by the light of his victory;
holy, because upheld by him who could
say to messenger right there and then:
"Tell Gen. Jackson to make haste and
get well. He has lost his left arm, but
have lost my right arm," and later,
when he heard of the serious character
of Stonewall's wound, sent again to
say "Tell him 1 wrestled last night
for him in prayer as never prayed,
believe, for myself. I could have chosen
for the good of the country to have
been disabled in his stead"
"Once more holy, because whenever
in my dreams hear the measured
tread of phantom cavalry, and fancy I
see them so solid, so stiff, SO spectral, as
in column of four, boot to boot, with
cold hands clasping rigid sabres, they
noiselessly ride by, at their head proud
ly stepping with arched neck and royal
bearing, 1 always see the black horse
of their leader, and on his back the
prince of cavaliers, and as recall the
heavy Mexican spurs that jingle upon
the riding boots, the French sabre
swinging so quietly by his side, the
fighting jacket buttoned back, the
dropping hat and black feather, the
strong figure and big brown beard, the
piercing, laughing blue eyes, I know
before me rides the commander of the
cavalry of the Army of Northern Vir-
ginia, dashing J. E. B. Stuart, and
know above him floats the flag of the
C0nfederacy."

And tremulOus sigh seem to hear,
A sigh for the past and dead days dear.
Rocky and steep are thy shores, oh! river,

And darker the canes where silence doth hide.

As from the darkness cometh sweet dreams.

Echo afar to thy waves low song,
And the dropping boughs of the willow
Weep DER the flowers on thy dewy leas.

THE SOUTHERN SOLDIER IOY.


THE SOUTHERN SOLDIER I0Y.
BY FATHER RYAN.
Young as the youngest who donned the gray,
True as the truest who wore it
Brave as the bravest, he marched away.
(Hot tears on the cheek of his mother layl,
Triumphant waved our flag one day,
He fell in the front before 1t.
Firm as the frmest, where duty lay,
He hurried without falter;
Bold as the boldest, he fought and bled,
And the day was won-but the field was red,
And the blood of his fresh young heart was
shed
On his country's hallowed altar.
On the trampled breast of the battle plain,
Where the foremost ranks had wrestled,
On his pale. pure face, not q mark of pain,
(His mother dreams they will meet agaln),
The fatrest from mid all the slain,
Like child asleep-he nestlea.
In the solemn shades Of the woods that swept
The field where his comrades found him,
They buried him there-and the hot tears crept
Into strong mems eyes that had seldom wept,
(His motherhood pity her-smiied and slept,
Dreaming her arms were around him.
A grave in the woods with the grass o'ergrown,
A grave in the heart of his neither
His clay in the one lies llfeless and lone;
There is not a name, there is not tone
And only the voice of the wind maketh moan
Ger the grave where never . f,oger is strewn,
But his memory lives in the other.

DRIFTING.

BY BERTHE VALERIE McCUTCHEN.
Ger my head the birds are singing,
Underneath, the waters playing,
And my boat is slowly drifting
Tothe measure of the stream.
Through the leaves are zephyrs signing.
And the Summer winds are dying,
And the perfumed air is bearing
Strangely mystic sounds to me.
am drifting, slowly drifting,
And my heart is weirdly singing:
Yet the music, softly wlnging,
Tells tale of wondrous joy.
am drifting, calmly drifting:
All the busy world am leaving,
And my heart is firmly clinging
To the ever-present "Now."

What is hope? A smiling rainbow
Children follow through the wet;
IT'S not here-still yonder, yonder-
Never urchln found it yet.
What is life? A thawing Iceboard
On sea with sunny shore;
Gay we sail, it melts beneath us;
We are sunk and seen no more.
