WHAT TO 81 Y At 4 CRIT

One is always expected to say some
thing when looking for the first time
on new baby, and as it is neither
kind nor safe to tell the truth and say
that the little, red, pudgy creature
doesn't look like anything we give a
list Of unpatented and uncopyrighted
remarks to be used on such occasions:
"Well isn't he cunning? He looks
like you'll"
81 think he's going to look like his
father!'
"Hasn't he dear little fingers? Do
let me see his dear little toes!"
'sIsn't he larger"
"Isn't he tiny darling?"
CHOW bright he seems!n
"Did you ever see such a sweet
little mouth?"
ssIsn't he just too sweet for any
thing?''
'sThe dear little darling! / never
saw SO young baby look around sol"

warranted to give satisfaction just as
they have been giving satisfaction
from time immemorial until the

THE COUNTRY'S TRUE INT ERESTS.

1t is true that just now times are
somewhat out of joint with us, and
that neither the few nor the many
are doing as we'll as they formerly
did; but there is good reason to be-
lieve that this is merely temporary
misfortune. There is nothing in it to
warrant dark forebodings, We have
seen worse times and they have been
succeeded by periods of extraordi-
nary prosperity. 1t is not necessary
to despair Of the republic because we
happen to have encountered the same
kind of a difficulty that has been pre-
viously overcome. The part of wis
dom, of duty, of manliness is to meet
the occasion with courage, fortitude,
and full confidence in the recupera
tive energies of the nation. 1t is
surely not a time for public men to be
talking in a Respondent way and
making doleful prophecies about our
social and political affairs. On the
contrary they should infuse their
speeches with a reasonable optimism,
and point out the reconciling and
stimulating facts in the case. There
is nothing TO be gained by causing
the people to take a distrustful view
of the situation. They need to be
kept in mind of the encouraging cir
cumstances, the things that justify
hope and faith; and the man who
talks nesSiroiSno To than ia not their
friend, and does not have at heart
the true interests of the country ST.

GOOD ROAD HINTS.

Until we have radical change in
the system of highway laws and high
way management, much improve
ment would result in the condition of
roads if the commissioners and over
seers would see to it that the side
ditch on the upper side of the road is
opened to proper depth to carry all
the water in the spring, and sluices
put across at proper intervals to let
the water away from the the road,
and especially that the roadbed be
made higher than the ditch and not
SO wide and fiat as in many cases
they are. Many and many rod of
road is nothing but mud hole, and
all because of carelessness in not low
ering the side ditch and raising the
road bed. Again, many rods Of road
are made muddy by not making
water bars across the road to turn
the water off, and SO it is allowed to
follow down the entire slope for
long distance, when bar of suitable
height would prevent all, and the
public would be better accommodated
by a few minutes work of the over
seer. But we shall never have good
roads, in the strict sense of the term,
until the rocks and stones, which now
lie dormant waiting the action of
some master mind, are broken in
small fragments, and each year the
utilized in drawing plentiful cover
ing of crushed stone. In other words,
when our roads are macadamized, land
the water turned off and kept off,
be permanently improved. -Neao Eng

1t was very small Western town,
and the only train out of it that night
left at O'Clock. The travelling man
had impressed upon the night porter
of the hotel the Importance of calling
him in time for this train. Promptly
at 80 prodigious knock reused the
sleeper.
Say! be yez the man what wants
the O'Clock train?
Yes, was the sleepy reply from with
in.
Well, yez can sleep an hour longer,
for she's so much late.
The heavy feet shuff1ed off down the
hall, and silence ensued. Another
hour had passed, when Pat again
knocked.
Say! be yez the felly what said he
wanted to ketch the two O'Clock
train?
Yes and there was the sound of a
man hastily springing from his bed.
Well, drawled Pat, yez can go back
to bed again, for she's another hour
late.
A forcible remark or two proceeded
from the travelling mans room, and
were audible to his awakened neigh
bors, as was the departure of Pat; but
soon all was quiet again, and the few
occupants of the hotel were left for
some undisturbed repose. just as
the faint streaks of dawn were ting
ing the sky Pat once more made his
presence known, and, in tones giving
unmistakable evidence of recent and
heavy slumber, remarked:
Say! if yez was the feily what want
ed to ketch the O'Clock train yez
can sleep till morning, fer bedad! the
blame things gone!

compacting the soil below. If this ia
done promptly, the moisture turned
up by the furrow will be prevented
from evaporating, and every shower
will make the soil moister. AS the
american CultiUator explains, it is by
using very light showers, that, falling
on unplowed ground, would not wet
down half an inch, that the seed bed
for wheat is made what it should be.
