1t is easy enough to be pleasant

1t is easy enough to be pleasant
When life flows by like q song,
But the man worth while is the man
with smile
When everything goes dead wrong
For the test of the heart is trouble,
And it always comes with the years
But the smile that is worth the
praises of earth
Is the smile that shines through tears.
1t is easy enough to be prudent
When nothing tempts you to stray,
When without or within no vice or sin
Is Turing your soul away.
But it's only a negative virtue
Until it is tried by the fire,
And the life that is worth the honor of
earth
Is the one that resists desire.

Quoted from Life" the following
written over the signature Of Robert
rockingham, its advertising manager, is
worthy of attention:
90, Powers that be, make me sufficient
to my own occasions.
Teach me to know and observe the
Rules Of the Game.
"Give me TO mind my own business at
all times and to lose no opportunity Of
holding my tongue.
Help me not TO cry for the moon or
over spilled milk.
"Grant me neither to protfer nor to
welcome cheap praise; TO distinguish
sharply between sentiment and senti-
mentality, cleaving to the one and despis-
ing the other.
"When it is appointed for me to suffer,
let me, so far as may humanity be posi-
BILE, take example from the dear, we'll
bred beasts, and go away quietly, to bear
my suffering bs myself.
e'Give me to always be good comrade,
and to view the passing show with an
eye constantly grover keener, charity
broadening and deepening day by day.
Help me to win, il win ! may; but
and this, y Powers! especially, if ] may
not win, make me good loser"

1t is TO be hoped there is nothing
more than coincidence in the stimuli
taneous invention Of glass houses by
an Iowan, and of glass paving bricks
by a Partisan, for if the two inventions
should come IN contact the architect
might have 90 begin over again. The
patentee of the glass house proposes
TO attach Brackets TO the beams OF the
floors of the steel frame work Of his
structure 10 support two walls of opal
escent wire glass, the insulating dead
air in the Pinch space between the
two walls, preventing the loss of heat
il winter and its entrance in summer
II is claimed that buildings con-
structed in this manner will be more
free from drafts than under present
conditions, that they can be satisfac-
torily heated with a quarter less fuel
than buildings of brick construction
and that the absence Of windows shuts
out dust, SNAKE, odOrs and insects,
and allows of any arrar cement of the
floor plan desired. The French in
NeHlOT III question aims at CHedptnlhS
paving bricks, utilizing for his inven-
ton old glass obtained from broken
bottles, window panes, etc, as the raw
material. The bricks now being test
ed in Paris are laid on a foundation
of concrete, with a wooden template
one-fifth of an inch thick between the
bricks. Up 10 the present the new ma.
terial does not appear to wear as well
as stone, but ii is the belief of the city
officials that the thinness of the bricks
now laid makes them too fragile. They
suggest making them four inches thick
and laying them on a foundation OF
sand, as stone blocks are laid, since
on the present bed they have proved
too noisy.

TO reverse the lever, and to quote from
Ainslee's Philosophy of Laughing
"There are men who worry because
the sun will sometime 90 out and the
earth grow dead and cold like the moon;
or the coal measures be exhausted; or
the fertile areas of the world dry up be-
cause of the denudation of the forests
but the philosophy OF health is that, on
the whole, there has been steady pro-
gress: that in virtue, comfort knowledge,
art, religion and nearly, If not quite, all
the esser tails of the furthered develop
ment of man, faith in human nature and
belief 10 future better than the present
is the conclusion of every philosophy of
development and evolution 1t is our
good fortune TO live in day of the evo-
luton of evolution, and this, in giving a
new meaning 20 the very word progress,
makes us feel that the world is rational
and benefcent 10 the core, and that
where conscious purpose and effort fan
we sink back into the everlasting arms
"Again, word about the philosophy
of laughter When the system is nerved
and is making conscious or unconscious
effort, the nerves that tighten the walls
of the blood vessels are hard al work and
pressure in the arteries is great; but
hearty laugh, as Bruck's interesting eX-
perments show, tends to bring the blood
over into the veins where there is 20
pressure, relieves the arteries and brings
the exquisite sensations of relaxation, OF
rest. Once more optimism is one of the
supreme sedatves."
May We in conclusion quote from the
Four Track News, first recalling 70
your mind that this is the organ of the
New York Central f. Il. Co?
did you ever know a pessimist to be
a success? i can't is the war cry of the
misanthrope. That cry never surmount-
ed an obstacle; il never lifted man out
of the slough of despond; it never urged
man on 10 success.
Optimism paints the pathway OF life
with the golden hues of possibility; 1t
paves the way with stepping stones; 1t
tempts US TO climb the ladder OF hope
to the temple of achievement. 1t may
be substantial, impractical, visionary;
but you notice it is generally the man
who thoroughly believes in himself, in
his fellow men and in the opportunities
of life, who wears the epaulets, enjoys
the public's esteem and draws the check
that never goes TO protest.

Will Hear the Opposition.

The grand jury in the Circuit
Court yesterday afternoon made a
recommendation that the court adj
wise the supervisors Of Elizabeth
City county 10 appropriate $4,000 for
the purpose OF assisting in paving
the strip of county road leading from
Hampton bridge TO Gatewood's cor.
ner at the entrance to the Normal
school.
The grand Jurors investigated the
matter of paving the section and the
recommendation to the court is that
with the $4,000 given by the county
and privaT subscriptions from the
property owners, added with the
street railway company's share that
the road can be paved. 1t is recon-
mended that the street railway COM
pany pave between it's tracks and for
two feet on either side of them.
Brick to Be Used.
The grand jurors think the road
should be paved with vitriRed brick.
After hearing the recommendations
from the jury Judge Blackstone an.
nounced that he will send the report
of the jury to the supervisors, but he
will in no wise at this time pass
upon propositions concerning the
feasibility of carrying out the wishes
OF the grand jury. Judge Blackstone
further stated that before deciding
the question he will hear any COM
plant that may be made against the
jurys recomme ndations.
The strip OF road from Hampton
bridge 10 Gatewood's corner is ira.
rersed as much as any street in
Hampton and along its route are
many of the prottiest dwellings in
the town. 1t is believed the property
owners and the Normal school author.

The grand jury also returned an
indictment against Thomas *. Lee,
colorcd. who runs n restaurant in
West Queen street, charging him
with selling liquor without the neces-
sary license.
K After submitting the recommenda-
tion mentioned above the grand
jurors announced that they had com
pleted their labors and Judge Black
stone dismissed them from further
service for this term of the court.
Must Pay Alimony.
Judge Blackstone entered a decree
in the case of Annie Lee, who IS
suing her husband William Lee for
absolute divorce. The woman is
given until the February term OF the
Circuit Court to modify her bill of
allegations and William Lee is direct
cd to pay to her the sum of SIS
