1t is worth while to do even the
smallest kindness as we 60 through life.
Nothing is lost. No dewdrop perishes
but sinking into the flower makes it
sweeter.
The all-important thing is not to
live apart from God, but 80 far as pos.
sible to be consciously with him. 1t
must need be that those who look
much into His face will become like
him.
Our minds are carnal and therefore
at enmity with God; our wills are
stubborn and will hot yield to the
touch Of his power, we are in mid
night darkness and it is in this con-
dition that he comes to US.
There is no use in calling i'll temper
"a high spirit" because it isn't A
really high spirit controls its low ten
denotes, among which petulance and
anger must certainly be classed.
Right prayer comes in humility and
confidence and asks from its own
point of view for what is needed, but
always in submission to the loving
will of God. Right prayer is always
beard, but petitions which are right in
spirit may be unwise in choice, and
the loving kindness of God may deny
them for good.

that suitable hall shall be hired and
obtain the use Of ten or twelve teams,
as many men and sufficient supply
Of crushed stone to construct length
Of good road as a sample. 80;
When the train arrives, the engineers
will begin at once to build about q
mile Of dirt road with the teams, men
and materials furnished by the local
ity. They will then surface or macad-
amize as much Of that road as their
time will permit When the practica-
bility Of the movement has been thus
manifested, the mayor and commercial
organizations will unite in a call for
public meeting to organize an associa-
ton.
President Moore of the National
Good Roads association says Of the
project:
"The south can have good roads If 1t
will, and the sooner the citizens get to-
gether and work along some well or
,ganized and practical line these results
will be reached the quicker. There is
nothing that will do more to Increase
the value Of virgin lands and advance
the development of the rural districts
than well constructed public roads.
The improvement Of the road system
will have a wonderful effect upon stim-
ulating the settlement Of people on
farms, and as these settlements are be-
ing made so will the value Of the land
increase.
wherever q city or town is found
possessing well made roadways lead
ing therefrom you will find the busi-
ness Of that point is in a prosperous
condition. Therefore the citizens of
every town in the south will be pro-
noting their own interests If they give
this movement their moral and If nee
essary financial support.
1T Is hoped that every state, county,
city and town officer will give this sub
ject of better roads serious considera-
ton and then take the matter In hand
Immediately and show his constituents
that the movement for better roads
will receive his utmost consideration
and utmost cooperation.
"It is universally decided that good
roads are what we want. In order to
secure them we must pull together,
working Systematically and on practi-
cal lines. This grand tour, planned by
the Southern Railway company, is a
signal for action. If the states visit
ed are not alive to this and do not avail
themselves of the opportunity to secure
information rendered by the good roads
special train, no one will be at fault
except the citizens Of the states In
which the exhibits are made"

Good health Is very much like mon
ey; it is valued most by those who
have to work hardest to get it, and it
is squandered by those who come by
it easily.
The God who is better to you than
all your fears-yea, better than your
hopes-perhaps intends the affiiction
to remain with you luntil it lifts the
latch of heaven for you and let's you
into your eternal rest.
The model family circle should be
the best place on earth for it is CONF
posed of thoughtful, hard-workins 8,
father, loving mother, brothers who
love to look out for their sisters, and
sisters who study what should be
done in order to make the rest of the
family happy.
Prayer is the approach to God, seek
ing communion. Petition is the part
Of prayer which asks for gifts. No
man ever drew near to God but God
drew near to him. Is it wise to pray
That is a question whether we shall
live our lives alone. Prayer is COM
munion. Gods children cannot live
without it.
Agitation, activity, outgoing out
putting, alone will keep the waters of
life pure. The particles must be kept
in motion. The life that is suppressed
becoms impure. Life, like water, may
hold in solution thousand substan-
ces; but, through its restless motion,
it is permanent and changeless.
Discussing the doleful from morn
ing until night is enough to set one
crazy. AS I want to die sane I never
hash over my troubles to my family.
Home is the place to show how good
you feel. If you don't feel as good as
you would like to, take walk in the
back yard until you get into a condi-
tion that will permit you to be a COM
fort to those to whom you are in duty
bound to be comforter.

Grades of Roads.

The grade is the most important fac
tor to be considered in the location OF
roads. The smoother the road surface
the less the grade should be. Whether
the road be constructed Of earth, stone
or gravel, steep grades should always
be avoided if possible. They become
covered. at times with coatings Of Ice
or slippery soil, making them very diff
cult to ascend with loaded vehicles, as
well as dangerous to descend. They
allow water to rush down at such
rate as to wash great gaps alongside
or to carry the surfacing material
away. AS the grade increases In steep
ness either the load has to be dimin'
ished in. proportion or more horses OF
power attached.

TWO POsTOFFICES ROBBED.
Burglars Got a Big Haul at Due West
and DOnalds,

fessiopal burglars operating throughout the
state.
Recently several postofflces In adjacent
counties have been en- tered and the safes rob-
bed OF stamps and money. In each instance
the methods of entrance were the same, lead
ing to the conclusion that the miscreants
were the same persons.
On Wednesday night the postoffice at Due
West, Abbeville county, was entered, The safe
blown open, and stamps and money taken
amounting to $500.
Same night members of the same gang, II Ia
supposed, robbed the Office at Donalds, three
miles from Due West, securing stamps and
money to the extent OF 500.
1t is likely that In view of the frequency OF
the occurrences, the postotfice department
will send send special detectives 10 this sec.
ton.
