If man is good for any thing in this world he will die leaving 6 large share of his planned and attempted work unfinished. Whether he dies early or late, it will make no difference at this point. The more he does, the more he will see that needs doing, and that he thinks he can have part in If he should live a century it would be still the same. Let no man, therefore, worry over the fact that he may die before he has finished the things he has in hand to do. If he should ever come to the point where he has nothing more that he wants to finish before he dies, he would already have lived too long.-S. S. Times.

suppose some of your readers begin to
think have deserted your paper, but l
assure you this is not the case, but impor-
tant news has been scarce.
Our county roads are almost impossible,
the quantity of rain ard freezing and thaw-
ing, and the amount OF travel have gotten
the roads fearfully bad and should teach
our oyerseers to use gravel instead of clay.
It is certainly of the utmost Importance
to have Il rev graded road from this place
to Greenville depot, and | think a move
in that direction will be made this spring
Considerable sickness is the result OF
this damp weather. Mrs. Belle Cameron,
Mrs. Hutchen5, wife of SAINT HutchenS,
and NJ ISIS Cordelia Is. Anderson, daughter
Of Rob7t Anderson, are all not expected to
live. Mr.. Benjamin Whitesell, J. C..
Glenn aud Mrs Annie Beard, wife OF Mr.
East Beard, are also sick.
Should it De our good fortune for the
Blair Bill to pass Congress. one of the
first moves should be to furnish the public
schools with free books. There are num-
bers Of children who are rot attending
school for the reason they have no books,
consequently Miss Florence Baylor. who
is teaching near this place, is making such
a low average as to scarcely Justify her in
teaching ut all, when the fault is not with
her. | think it would tie II move in the
right direction if our legislatu re were to
pass an act To pay the teachers regardless
Of average.
Our noighborhood was made sad by the
news of the death of Mr.. John Garrison
on Tuesday 9th inst. He died at the
house of his brother in-law, Stuart Wise
man, near Raplliue. His disease was
measles He was i'll only a few days. His
remains We're inferred at Mt. Carmel
church. Mr. Garrison was an industrious
young man. and had been but short time
previous to his death, in the employment
of j. S. Garrison. Cherry Grove; his aged
mother and frienas have the sympathy of
the community.
Measles and bad colds are going the
rounds.
More snow. and roads almost impossible
never in. our recollection have the roads
been in such fix as at this time. Wagon
ing is almost dispensed with except IN
cases of extreme necessity. w. II. w.
