put down last week on West street
opposite the Japhet barn under the
direction of the Street Commissioner
The body of stone put down is Is feet
wide and about-6 inches thick. Only
a few rods have been laid as yet, but
the beginning is what counts and
there is no danger now but that the

and whore nature presents some OF
her most charming phases the
mountaineer has built an unpre-

fully appreciative Of his surround

humble and peaceful mode OF life.
An ancient philosopher has said
"that man approaches nearest to
perfect happiness who has fewest
wants" Measured by this rule, the
mouutaineer is quito q happy indi-
vidual. He desires no better house
or furniture and no finer clothing
than he possesses. His little farm
furnishes him an abundance OF corn
for bread and for "mountain dew"
rye, wheat, cabbage, etc, while
chickens innumerable swarm around
his cabin and rosy-cheeked apples
hang in profusion from the orchard
trees. He is not ambitious and he
pines neither for wealth nor fame.
The old-fashioned loom and spinning
wheel are. still in use In his house
hold and furnish most of the cloth
used by the family.
He needs little money to pay
taxes, and for some other purposes
occasionally. One OF the easiest ways.
frequently, for him to obtain cash is
to convert some of his corn into a
liquid form. He has no more com

than the housewife in making jam
out OF blackberries. When he docs
not resort to moonshining to mako
money he loads u wagon with cab

jug OF mountain dew or q keg OF
apple jack underneath his produce.
He bitches his slow but sure oxen to
the wagon and starts to market, often
twenty-five, thirty and even fifty
miles distant Time is not regarded
as money by him, and if ho is
absent from home eight Or ten days
he cares not. He carries food for
himself and his cattle and sleeps in
tho wagon, SO his expense on the
trip is nothing. When his produce
has been disposed of he buys some
salt, a little sugar and that is about
all. If his load brings him IS or $40
he considers that all clear profit A
little later in the season he may be
expected to return with chestnuts.
Thus for generations has lived among
the grandest scenery in Georgia the
mountaineer. in his primitive and
simple way. Perhaps it was OF such
as he OF whom the poet said: "Where
ignorance is bliss 'twere folly to be
WISE" The mountaineer is unique
