Some Original Verses.

Wallace Byler, just up from an attack of rheumatism that kept him in bed for two weeks at Searcy, during part of which time his suffering was very severe, is spending a few days with Batesville friends, before taking the road again. But it takes something worse than rheumatism to take the snap and poetic spirit out of Wallace. His friends are quite familiar with that verse of his, so appro- priate to this season of the year:
 'The melancholy days have come
 The saddest of the year
 A little too warm for whiskey,
 And little tco cold for beer r''
 But Wallace has new verse now. It breaths something of the philosophy that experience has taught him with apologies either to Ella Wheeler Wilcox, or to John A. Joyce:
 s'Laugh, and the world laughs with you;
 Shore, and you sleep alone"

Public Interest Is Growing.

1 To the mere politician the
 American people may at times
 appear to be asleep on important l public questions, but when this condition exists it is safe to say
 that, instead of being indiffer- ent, they are then more deeply
 than ever studying pending prob
 lems of state. This was never
 more true than in the matter of
 the Brownlow-Latimer Good
 Roads proposition beyond any doubt the most important meas ure, as applying to the whole body of the American people, possible of suggestion in this day of our history.
