The Road Machine. admirable
invention for making new and repairing
old roads, was tested here last Saturday
under the supervision Of Capt. Dudley
Avery, President, and several members of
the Police Jury, and gave much satisfac-
ton to all who witnessed its perfOrman-
ces. To utilize its capabilities to the
greatest advantage the land must be
stirred with pillow before using the
scraper and the soil should be dry. A
good road cannot be built up out Of mud
and made level and solid. Like all ma
chinery 1t will need an intelligent and
careful man to handle it, and under such
conditions the LambOrn Machine will
solve the problem Of making and main
tanning good roads in our parish. The
Police Jury will purchase two, one of
which will be paid for by the parish and
corporation of Jeannerette and be used
for that town and the two adjoining
wards. and the other will be employed in
other portions of the parish. The road
question has been an incubus, the most
tormenting Of Nightmares, and we hope
the machine will afford us the much
needed relief from them.-Nec Iberia

Poverty that exists in so many homes,
would not say one word against poverty;
wherever it comes it is bitter to all, but
you will mark as you look over this South
land among our people that while few
are poor because of unavoidable circum-
stances a large mass of the poverty is
due to extravaganza, idleness and worst
of all drunkenness. The villainous
crimes, murdes, robberies and pauper-
ism caused every year by the use Of liquor
are appalling. Will men never learn
that they are drinking destruction to
their own souls? They dread the cholera

CASTLES In THE AIR.

Dreaming in sunlit garden.
FlOw'rs around both fresh and fair.
Lost in visions of the future,
Building castles in the air.
Roses bloom in beauty near me,
What on earth more fair than they?
And what sweeter than to lOiter
Mid their scents this summer day.
Dreaming in a sunlit garden,
Where each fairest blossom blows.
Watching bees so gaily rowing,
From the lily to the rose,
Musing here, amid LIES beauties,
Free from every breath Of care,
Here | weave my tender fancies,
Building castles i'm the air.
Oft these visions end in nothing,
Fade away with things that were,
Yet we love to linger sometimes
In our castles built of airl
FlOw'rs will fade, and joys will vanish
Life itself must pass away,
All! then, let each heart in pity,
Build its castles while it may.

Irwin Miles met a horrible death last
week by being buried in we'll which
he was sinking on farm near Jackson

through the loose earth. by which he was

which had collected worked hard to save
him, but it was three hours before his

Father, Mother. and Three Sister. Dead,

Mr.. David Claypool, formerly sargeant-at-
Arms Of the New Jersey Senate, and now Notary
Public at Cedarville, Cumberland Co. N. j.,
makes the following startling statement: "My
father, mother, and three sisters all died with
consumption, and my lungs we're so weak /
raised blood. Nobody thought I could live.
My work (shipsmithing) was very straining on
me with my weak constitution, and l was rap
idly going to the grave. While in this condi-
ton commenced using Mishler's Herb Bltters,
and 1t saved my life. Because 1t was so diff
cult to get 1t In this little place, and had i'm.
proved so much, stopped taking it for a
time, and the result is / have commenced
going rapidly down hill again. Somehow,
Mishler's Herb Bitters gives appetite and
strengthens and builds up as nothing else does
and must have dozen bottles at once. Use
this communication as you please. and II any
one wants to be convinced Of its truth, let
them write me and will make affidavit to II,
for owe my life TO Mishlers Herb Bitters."
The secret of the almost In variable relief and
cure OF consumption, dysentsry, diarrhes
dyspepsia, Indigestion, kidney and liver
complaints, when Mishler's Herb Bltters is
is used, is that it contains simple, harmless and
yet powerful ingredients, that act on the blood,
kidneys, and liver, and through them strength
ems and invlgorates the whole system. Purely
vegetable in its composition; prepared by
regular physician; a standard medicinal prep
aration endorsed by physicians and druggists.
These are four strong points in favor of MIsh-
lers Herb Bitters. Mishler's Herb Bitters is
sold by all druggists, Price $l.OO per large
bottle. 6 for $500.

Apother Abraham Lincoln story.

An old gentlemen who was on intimate
terms at the White House during the war
said: 'Stories about Mr.. Lincoln are plenty
enough, but ! will tell you one which / can
vouch for as being true, and which, IS far a.
my knowledge is concerned, has never been In
In print. One Of Mr.. Lincoln's most esteem.
ed friends was ex-Gov Tod, of Ohio. He was
. quaiat old character, and Lincoln loved him
for his honesty, ability and native shrewdness.
At ono time he thought Of Mr. Tod in con-
nection with the secretaryship of the treasury,
but afterward he gave him foreign mission.
One evening when Mr.. Tod was in town Mr.
Lincoln invited him over to the White House.
They had long chat together, when Mr.. Lin
coils finally said: Look here, Tod; how Is Il
that ysu spell yor name with only one d.
married Todd, but she spelled her name
with two DIS All Of her relatives do the same.
You are the first Tod l ever met who
spelleduhis name with 30 few letters"
''Old Tod looked at Mr.. Lincoln in his Pc
culiarly quizzing manner and then replied:
"Mr. President, God spells his name with on
ly one d, and what is good enough for God is
good enough for me-"
''Mr Lincoln used to repeat the story to
some Of his more intimate friends, and every
time he did SO he would laugh until the tears
ran down over that furrowed but grand face"

New York Telegram.

New York Telegram.
A small, dark haired man, wearing SLOUGH
Texas hat and speaking with foreign accent,
entered the ONCE Of = shrswd downtown mer-
chant Reckoning to him with a mysterious
look upon his face, the stranger sent to a cor.
ner, produced q package and laid 1t on the
counter.
The merchant went over to his visitor, who
laying hi. npger on his nose to insure secrecy
told him in an undertone that he was sent
there by one Of the merchants friends for the
purpose Of presenting him with cotton pad
containing the seed of the Co-ze-ta plant,
which grows only in Texas, and that by laying
the pad In glass filled with water the Co-ze-
ia would grow out, and the leaves at night
would have osphorous lustre. The stran-
ger added that he only wanted his car fare
and that he was going next day to England.
The merchant, who has private museum in
which he takes great pride, gladly welcomed
this addition to it. and handed the stranger
s. for the prize. He opened the package, next
morning, in the presence Of his wife, and
found . cotton pad containing some good
specimens of Western oats. The language
with which he apostrophised the stranger was
favored with scriptural expressions.

Figures on Liquor.

Saloons are more numerous in Chi.
cago than meat markets. There is a
drinking place in Illinois for every 267
inhabitants or every forty eight fami-
lies. In New York there are 2, 449 more
rum shops than food places, and in
1880 there were in the United States
100, 973 saloon-kcepers. or as some one
had aptly said, 1S1 regiments. In 1877
the amount of money spent throughout
the Union for liquor was one-fourth of
all the farm productions, or 50, 49,
53s, 65s. This was $4,000, 900 more
than the value of the household furni-
ture in use. The expenditure for drink
in ten years was two-thirds the value
of the real estate in this country.--Dr.
Birch. of Chicago.

started with Jay Gould. He wants to

did l ever see so many fools to-

last of the group. 1.-The trouble is all
caused by politicians, who want to wind
us around their fingers. We won't be

Then that's the trouble, ehp" quer-
led the farmer.
"Yes, sir, that's the trouble" an

Enjoying Herself.

Cincinnati Enquirer.
Saw peculiar specimen Of feminnity on
the train the other night. She was a middle
aged woman with good address and more than
average intelligence, but she smoked contin-
uously and excessively. She sat in the smok-
ing room of the Pullman with fragrant Ha-
vana in her mouth and discussed almost every
subject, displaying a surprising amount Of in
formation. But this festive female also in
iulged somewhat from q small flask which
contained whisky. She lighted one cigar af-
ter another aud entertained three or four male
occupants of the apartment with her expert
.nces. There was nothing obscene or indeli-
cate in her conversation, but she refused to
tell her name. She is the agent Of a patent
railroad switch, and lives in Texas with her
husband and her 1S-year-old daughter.

Here Is curious item about newspapers
which some one has compiled: 1.-THE number
OF pounds of type used in the newspapers Of
the United States is put at 6,5S9,S7s. The
newspapers In the FIVE states Of New York,
Penns ylvania, Ohio, Illinois and Iowa set half
the number of ems set In the United States.
A pound Of type averages about $40 ems, aud
an average OF $500 ems is left in the cases.
The average composition per newspaper is "A,
147 ems for dailies, and for weeklies 57,197.
The total amount Of type set for one issue OF
the daily newspapers of the country would
make Q, 7s5 duodeclmo volumes, and all the
papers In year would represent as much type
work as would make 10000 volumes equal to
Appleton's Cyclopedia. A slip OF the work
would extend from the Atlantic to the Pacific.
Eight thousand persons are employed" The
summary might be carried to q greater length
with advantage, though emitting the figures.
II only honest opinions were expressed In all
those newspapers, men would not be abused
merely because they have brain and arc prom
inent; the circulation of some would fall off,

But where is the ground on which fremen or
builders can take their standl Even for the
commonest repairs of houses three or four
stories high, in streets only FIVE or six feet
wide, some plan must be adopted of which !

half hundred building stones, and bod Of
mortar would block up the street, and inter

The Steady Fusillade Of Infantry.

To veteran soldiers the fire of artillery,
whether OF exploding shrapnel or rafting can
lister, had no such terrors as the fusillade Of a
steady line Of infantry. There is scarcely an
old soldier who saw much Of battle service
who has not been hit more or less frequently,
without being harmed, with canister, shrap-
mel balls, or splinters Of shell. But how few
in proportion were struck by musket balls and
not seriously hurt! Even new troops though
appalled,, and bending down as they went on,
as though moving against driving rain,

A Dakota Judge in the course OF bis charge
to the jury. recently, touched on an important
point He said:
Although the prosecution has established
the fact that the defendants father was once
q member Of the legislature, this should have
no influence with you in bringing in your YER
dict. The unfortunate affair in the life Of his
father might, Of course, make us look with
suspicion on the family, but at the same time
It really proves nothing against the defendant
as he may as deeply deplore the conduct OF
his paternal relative as any OF u.s."
