Better Roads.

One Of the best signs OF progress in
the South is the increasing interest in
road building and road improvement
It is true that we have much more
talk than performance on this subject
but there are signs Of practical prog.
ress in several Southern States. In
Louisiana there seems to be good
prospect of much frst-class road work
this year.
The principal factor in the move
ment is the Illinois Central railroad.
one of the most enterprising and lib
eral railways in the country.
It has been said nat the Illinois
Central has never entered any terri
tory which it did not benefit and i'm
prove. 1t has done great things for
the Southern States through which it
passes. Be"ides giving them admir-
able freight End passenger service, 1t
has settled many thousands Of the
best class of immigrants in that Sec
ton.
The railroads purchased large tracts
of land lying along its lines, which it
cut up into farms and sold on very
easy terms to sturdy and intelligent
farmers from the Northwest. These
new citizens of the South are so well
pleased that they have induced many
others to join them. They have added
much to the value of farm lands in
Mississippi and Louisiana.
The Illinois Central is now doing an
other good thing for the States it has
already benefited SO greatly.
1t is building ut it's own expense
sample stretches Of good roads along
it's lines and is distributing much prac-
tical literature on the subject of good
roads. In addition to this it gives low
freight rates on road materials and
in other ways encourages the good
roads movement.
If all the railroads in the South
would do as much in this cause as the
Illinois Central is doing, the result
would be of immense benefit to this
section, as we'll as the railroads them
selves.-Atlanta Journal.

seWith weary brain and aching heart
greet another day;
A hasty bite, and | must start
Upon my weary way;
The sun may shine above my head and
soft, sweet winds may blow,
But what are fair. blue skies to ne?
With tired feet so
To labor where no sunshine falls, =.
Shut in by cheerless, dingy walls,
Estranged from all but woe.
'The day is done, but what have
That it has brought to me?
The sinking sun may gid the sky
Why should I stay to see?-

all day and then,
Lie down to troubled sleep awhile and
toll away again?-
Day after day the same old round
Until some day the welcome ground
Shall hide my face from mem?

HE REMEMBERED HIM.
And the Old Mans Recollection OF
Him Was Anything Hut
FInttering.

To see ones self as others see him
is always interesting, if not fatter.
ing. when 1 recently went to visit
my parents, who live in an agricul-
tural region out west" said a we'll
known New York newspaper man, re-
lates the Troy Times, 81 one day met
a farmer on whose property l had
worked for a time when a boy. My
old acquaintance did not seem to rec
ognize me, and, thinking that he had
entirely forgotten me, 1 asked him
if he did not remember a neighbor's
son, mentioning his name, to whom
he gave employment about 20 years
ago. Yes said the farmer, 4 shall
never forget him, for he was the worst
boy in the community, boy who was
as frisly and clipper as could be
when there was no work to do, but
who always had a bad pain when
there was water to be carried to the
harvest hands, or hrewood to be
fetched in, OF the cows to be hunted.
or the gTindstone to be turned; a boy
who was always at work at the rab-
bit trap, or a machine to hull walnuts,
or sawmill, or something; a boy who
had dam across every stream in this
section and a hutter wheel a-going at
every dam. That's the only boy l ever
knew by the name you've mentioned ,
/ saw that ne hadn't entirely forgot
ten me, and 1 asked; What do you
suppose that boy is doing now?' Il
don't know he answered, in a med
itative way, but expect he is in
Jail. he ought to be, anyway, If he is
still alive and hasn't reformed No,
he is not in jail 1 said. thinking
would surprise him; he is the editor
of a newspaper 'Well,' answered
the old farmer, slowly, after changing
his quid Of tobacco from his left to
his right cheek, 4 amt a bit aston
ished to hear it. always said he
would come to something bad, and, to
tell the truth, l haven't got much
sympathy for him."
