tons. 1t was long since remarked
that there could be no better measure
of the civilization OF people than
its public roads. But they are more
than "A mark and Il measure, they are
likewise the natural means by which
civilization is developed. No roads,
no barter, no trade, no commerce, no
social intercourse, no civilization.
Given good roads, each and all fol-
low. We do not now speak of rail-
roads, but of wagon roads, the truly
public roads that belong to the PEG.
pie and the only roads that are used
for the benefit Of the people. These
roads are of incOmparably more i'm
portance to the mass Of the people
than the railroads. They cost more,
they cover UNNECESSARILY longer
lines Of travel and incomparably
more freight is hauled over them.
To improve them, therefore, would
be to benefit the community in more
ways and to far greater extent than
to correspondingly improve the
whole railway system. TO maca-
dam the main country roads of
the United States would add inn
mensly more to the wealth, comfort,
convenience, trade and commerce of
the people than to double track with
steel rails and equip in tirst-class style
every railroad from the Atlantic to
the Pacific.

II WISH 1 WAS A GENERAL. "A

don't wish for something grand,

"That is true, 10, but wishing
without action will not accomplish
much. I've heard you make at
least twenty wishes this morning.
One, Il wish l was rich,' just as
though that were anything new; all
boys wish that. Then you wished
you were somebody great, somebody
famous, Caesar or the Car of Russia,
or the President Of the United States.
Then you wished your father could
only let you have a college education
so that you might be lawyer. And
then to go on to smaller matters, you
wished it was Christmas, so that you
might have vacation. And lastly,
you wished you were fine bicycle
rider, so that you might win the
prize in the coming race. / tell you,

"Mr TENNESSEE"

The following beautiful lines on
Tennessee were written by Gen,
Albert Pike, the distinguished Mason
and poet, who died recently at
Washington City. They were pub
lished in an autograph edition of
General Pixies poems, copies of
which are very rare:
Landward and swift the seabird flies,
Dipping his strong and nervous wings
In the blue waves as home he hies,
A truant, from his wanderings,
II goes to seek, his gentle mate;
His Young, with longing eyes that wait;
So would fain haste home to thee,
My own, my native land, my Tennessee!
Existence! It's but toll and strife
Yet III not murmur or repne,
So that the sunset of my life,
Sweet day, be clear and calm as thiue
So that take my last, long rest,
Dear native land in thy loved breast;
Land of the gallant and the free
My own, my native land, my Tennessee!
The sunset filings upon the sea
Its golden gush of life and light
The waves with pleasant melody,
On white sa0ds are sparkling bright;
Old ocean, round his many isles,
Like fair infant sleeping, smiles
So would / sleep, and dream of thee,
My own, my native land, my Tennessee.
Tall mountains with their snowy cones
Far inland, bathed in sunshine, blaze;
Like gray-haired giants in their thrones,
Crowned with the young dawn's golden
rays,
Toward them lean, and fain would lie
AT the feet of those that pierce thy sky,
Thou dearest land on earth to me
My own, my native land my Tennessee!

A correspondent sends fyom Michigan
a true story OF a farmers dog who has
been found guilty Of obtaining goods
under false pretenses.
He is extremely fond of sousages, and
has been taught by his owner to go
after them for himself, carrying a writ
ten order in his mouth.
Day after day lie appeared at the
butchers shop, bringing his masters
order, and by and by the butcher be-
came careless about reading the docu-
ment. Finally, when settlement day
came, the farmer complained TINT he
was charged with moro sausages than
he had ordered.
The butcher was surprised. and the
next time Lion came in with n slip OF
paper between his teeth he took the
trouble to look at it. The paper was
blank, and further investigations
showed that whenever the dog felt a
craving for sausage he looked round
for a piece of paper and trotted of to
the butchers.
The farmer is something out OF
pocket, but squares the account by
Boosting Of his dogs intelligence
