BY Rail to 8agdad.

The Turks have projected q railroad
from COustautinODIe TO Bagdad the
historic city Of the Caliphs the very
heart of that romantic and magical
region which is celebrated in the
gorgeous stories Of the Arabian
Nights. It's length is to be l.4OO
miles. and il is estimated to cost some
$40. 100000 \ thousand years ago
Bagdad was the seat of the. mightiest
empire on the earth. Now it is
place of but little importance.
and is almost destitute Of any
regular communication with the rnst
of the world. To-day Bagdad has
about eighty thousand population,
composed Of people of every race and
color. Arabic is the common Ian
guage. The principal commerce Of
the city is in wool and wheat, which
are exported down the Tgris river in
boats TO the Persian Gulf The couu-
try over which the railroad will pass
was once u'aversed by the caravans
wl.eh brought the treasures Of the
East into Europe. The railway is
rapidly driving out Of every country
the romance which, it appears, was
inseparably connected with tyranny,
oppression, poverty. squalOr and gen.
eral misery. Romance and civilization
do not co-exist.-N 0. PicGylue.
Sharp County record., 1888-07-19
THE BEST TIME TO PROPOSE

When you have found the sweetest girl
In all the world 10 you,
And know that YOU give her q love that will
last
A love that will ever be true
When among the cluster Of blooming girls
She seems the one queen rose
Then the very first chance that you can tnd
Ts thevery best time to propose.
Imet your mother one spriug-time, boys,
And loved her iu less than % day;
But all the days Of the summer passed
Before found courage to say
The simple words that sealed our tate,
Though oft to my lips they rose;
] wanted more romantic time
Than could find TO propose.
When we walked home from the village
church,
The brothers and sisters came, too;
Inever could find % time to my taste,
But I said; This never will do;
may lose my lass IL ! wait So long;
T will speak ere this day shall close
So started out for my darling home,
with my mind made up TO propose,
Iwalked up the path beneath the trees,
And round to the kitchen door,
And there on The porch found the mala'
Fairer than ever before
With the soapsuds 1eCSing round her white
arms
For she was Washing the clothes;
She was all alone, and / said to myself
'NOw this is the time to propose,
But what 7 said I shall not repeat
Each lover must find his own way;
But or I received an answer sweet,
Though never q word did she say;
And had waited, and dallied along,
Would have won herr Who knOws'
Itell you, boys, when you've found your love-
That then is the time to propose.
