this production was last seen here many
new features and entirely new music has

laugh, and "Skipped" is funny from the
ground up. Its vitality, action, hilarity
and vim, which delighted large audiences
last season, have lost none Of their charm
and will no doubt cause a repetition Of It's
former success Sale OF seats now open.

Mr.. EDIToR:-A stranger prospect

questions, Have you good water? Have
you good roads? In this favored Sec

to the first qut stion: Yes! as pure. as
sweet, as sparkling, as cool as that
gushing f,om mountain side. 70 the
second, we hang Cur heads in shame
When we reflect how much nature has
done for us, and how we have not only
refused to aid her but with wilful and
remorseless disregard Of our best inter
ests have scratched our roads just
enough TO make them worse, and reply,
"tole 'ble." 70 have good roads-solid,
smooth roads-clear OF ruts, holes, heavy
sandstretches and water puddles, is
with us an easy task if only the prop
I'll means are dopted to secure them.-
An outlay at first Of not large amount
would lay the foundation, and their flu
ture care would he easy. 1t is we'll that
We should have new Courthouse
with all the modern Improvements, ~
but, we sadly need good roads on which
to drive to it. 1t is all very well to say,
as the genial and sympathetically enthu-
siastc Moveists insist, that We can go to
the Courthouse on the C-a-i-r-s-but l

compelled to use their own teams, be-
sides some two dozen more whose only
