Inc stories of that world and its
holy hilarities come in upon our soul
sometimes in song, sometimes in SER

reflection, and they are, to use the
words of my text, sweet influences.
But there is one star that affects us
more with Its sweet influence than
the center star, the Alcyone Of the
Pleiades, and that is what one Bible
author calls the Star of Jacob
and another Bible author calls
the Morning Star. OF all the
sweet influences that have ever
touched our earth those that radiate
from Christ are the sweetest. Born

A lady who knew the late William
NJ. Evarts once expressed surprise
that member of such slender frame
and fragile physique could endure SO
many feasts, with their varying
viands and different wines. "Oh"
he replied: 81 am not 80 afraid of
the different wines as the Indifferent
ones" Mr.. Evarts' good health
often excited the comments of his
bretheren of the bar. He attributed it
to the fact that he always got out of
bed late and never took any exercise.
That is contrary to the advice that
we have always heard about early to
bed and early to rise and so on. 1t
may have been the quality of the
wine that gave Mr.. Evarts his good
health, but it would contribute more
to good health to take no wine at all
and more exercise.

The importance Of good roads is Il
gospel that is being preached in all
sections these days.-Augusta Chrou-
icle
And it is gospel that cannot be
preached too often or too strongly.
At least until all Of our people como
to realize and appreciate tho value
and the comfort and the economy Of
good roads. If our people could
travel over somo good roads-we
mean good roads-they would be
willing to bo taxe,! TO build them.
Only few days ago we took little
drive out over one Of the roads in
Richland County from Columbia aud
it was q real pleasure to tho horse
and the occupants of the buggy. 1t
is much better and smoother than
the streets OF Columbia. If our peo
pie could see these roads and drive
over them they would not be salts,
fed until work was commenced in
Newberry on some permanent road
building. And we have pretty fair
average roads in this county, but
thoy could be much better. What
wo need toSdo is tol start at the court
house and build good roads out in
every direction, aud keep on extend
ing them until we reach every part
of the county. When wo got these
roads it Will then DO moro desirable
to live in the country than the town,
end we will wonder how we man
aged to got along 50 long without
such roads Money and labor put
in ths making Of good roads is tho
best Investment tho county could
possibly make. We should secure
rs many convicts aa wo can work to
advantage and put them to work at
once on some permanent roads start
ing from the court house IA the con
are Of the county and the sooner We
got at it tho better for all concerned.
