Railways instead of Roads.

The road-wagons and short-lived top
buggies and carriages ofthe farmer cost
him a very pretty penny in the course of
year, or term of years, and they rep
resent service which the electric rail-
road can largely abolish. But against
this saving must of course be set the cost
the railroad, the electric-power station,
the rent ofelectric wagons, and operat-
ing expenses. What would be the
amount? An accurate estimate cannot
of course be made here, beca1se condi-
tions differ so widely in different sections
of the country but rs close a calculation
as we can make in advance, founded on
the cost Of the electric railroads already
in operation, warrants rs in saying that
probably 80 per cent. of the roadways in
the United States could be equipped
with necessary tracks, poles and wires at
a cost of s., 500 per mile.
In district 10 miles square-the sur
face that could be served from single
central power-ststion-there would be, in
the larger part of the Union, about 100
miles OF railway. Then the total cost of
track for district 10 miles square would
be $4,000. This represents capitali
zlt;on Of only s. to the acre, and an an
nual interest charge Of so cents per acre.
With s central power station large
enough to operate all the wagons or cars
that would be called into use at one time
in the district, the capitalization need
not be more than $40 per ARE. This
would mean sn annual interest charge of
$50 for each 100 acres Of land.
1t must be conceded that this does not
seem like very heavJ tax when we
consider the nature Of the service rend-
cred available, the great saving in the
cost and maintenance of horses and wag-
ons, the enormous economy of time, and
the greatly enhanced value of improved
farm lands. If the interest charge
amounted to 500 per year, and the farm
ers were themselves chiefly the stock
holders of the electric companies, it
would still represent an eeonomy.-Ea-

Take the Sunny Side of Life.

Never relinquish the great object Of
your ambition, whatever it may be. Let
it be, more or less distinctly, ever pre-
sent in your mind. Let it exert a control
ling influence over all your actions. In
the first place, have some definite aim to
your life-ssme distinct and leading OBJ
iect of our ambition and be ambitious
to accomplish it. An simless, objectless
life is a dull and dreary. waste. 1t lacks
stimulus and piquancy and zest and en-
joyment. In choosing an object ofam-
bition choose q worthy one, in behalf of
which all your strength, your higher and
nobler faculties Of your nature, may be-
enlisted Have an aim that you may un-
blushingly and proudly exhibit to the
light of day, and for which you may
safely challenge the respect of all. Then
pursue it earnestly and steadfastly. No
matter what discouragemsnt: assail you
or place themselves in your way, keep
right on in the pursuit of your knowl-
edge. Ifyour progress be slow. still per-
severe and make it sure. Do sorrows
come to you? They come to all. The
continued adherence to the great plan of
usefulness which you have laid out will
DO as much as anything to brighten your
path even when grief and gloom over
shadow it. Press on, through good or
evil report, through darkness or through
sunshine, amid storms or under peaceful
skies-still press on, and never relin-
quish the great object of your ambition.

Yes, sir.

The father knew if the son did not
He had observed 8 number of dime nov
els about the house, but had not thought
it worth while to say anything until =
fitting opportunity arrived
Empty out those apples, and take the
basket and bring it to me half full ofdry
chips"
suspecting nothing, the boy o5eyed.
~And now" he continued, "put those
apples back into the basket"
When half the apples we're replsced,
the son said;
Father, they roll OFF; can't put on
any more"
"Put them in, tell you"
But, father, can't put them in"
Put them in No, Of course you can't
put them in. DOyou expect to fill a bas-
ket half full of chips and then fill it with
apples? You said you didn't know why
you fell behind at school, and l will tell
you. Your mind is Ike that basket. 1t
will hold only 50 much, and here you
have been for the past month filling it

The boy turned on his heel, Shistled
and said:
"Wkew sea the point"
Not dime novel has been seen in that
house from that day to this.
Other and older persons might wellsee
the same point. A mind filed with iic-
ton hates and rejects truth. A person
reading history, art, science or travels
may grow wiser every day; but a man
may read fiction hundred years, and
know no more when he finishes than
when he began.
There is real sin and sorrOw and suffer
ing enough in the world for Us to pity
and relieve, without wasting our teais
over the troubles Of some fictitious Ma
tilda Jane, and there is work and ent-
erprise and energy enough in real life to
engage oar powers, without resorting to
cheap novels for inspiration and excite
msnt.
But unfortunately, the girls who will
shed as many tears over some heroine's
fictitious SORROW, as they ", uid while
peeling painful Of onions, are the very
persons who would turn up their noses
st suffering beggar, and let sick per
son starve unvisited, in a garret. And
the boys who wax heroic over the great
doings Of some count, hero or cut-throat,
are too lazy to earn an honest living, and
are willing to let their mothers wait on
them, and black their boots while they
lay in bed after sunrise, or smoke cigars
or swear 10 prove that they are men,
