g. Don't lay down one tool except to
take up another. If you follow these
rule.s and few more that you can
make yourself. you will be able to re.
duce your working hours about one
half; you won't think you are hurry
ing; you won't be bored and worn out
by your work, and when it is over you
can go and romp with the baby with
an approving conscience and a mind
at rest.-Montreal Herald

.Convicts on the 4R Roads.

Editor OF The Times Dispatch:
Ss Sir,--Tn$ The Times-Dispatch& Of tho ~ tn
you ask tho Lexington Gazette II tho cons
svlcts were worked on, the public roads {!
about competition with 3ih honest labor
there think I can answer that Dues
#AIecklenburg county, and probably /. g q
$1nuch larger section Of this State. Nearly
#all 8the latorers Of this county are in
the habit OF leaving here in April for. the
Brick ardsEand mines, and return in, De-
&cenlber. Only the elderly men and boys
remain, that can't get away. 4 FL, {SiS
3H This class Of la Dor tina remains would
7 DO ofaVery little use upon the public
roads, even II they could be spared from
the farms; SO there would be no one
Sf,ere to ralse any object ions to tho con-
2yicts. II fact, from all Il can; learn. pub
lie sentiment favors the employment of
convict labor upon the public roads under
suitable egulatiOns,gwith competent men
70 direct the labor, according to specifl-ss
cations Of good engineers. Convict labor
thus employed would be far less in cons
rstttion Nth honest labor than anywhere
4 else you could put 4 t-much less than
slices. Fl t9S, a ,AXPAY1ITiR -
