Cleaning Eyes In the 8laekness Give

The average grownup who visits the
ZOO thinks it rather a dull sort Of

that would attach to them in their ma

But let the blase sightseer obtain
permission to visit the ZOO at mid

had to sleep thus to avoid the beasts

ART OF THE ETRUSCANS.
Mysterious People Who Lett Traces OF
Remarkable Civilization.

Remarkable Civilization
Why did the Etruscans devote their
whole lives to the incessant making OF
pottery until it accumulated IN sucn
quantities that they were compeIleu
to bury it in order to keep room 1or
themselves in their streets and houses
Then, again, there is the mystery or
the Etruscan Inscriptions. These IN
scriptions are fairly numerous, but
hitherto they have proved to be utter
" undecipherable. The Eruscan IS
the only dead language that has deheu
investigation Considered as a IAN
guage. nothing could seem more I'M
probable than the hieroglyphics of the
Egyptians, but Psychologists can read
them with such ease that almost any
given series of hieroglyphics can be
read In three or four ways by an equal
number of rival Psychologists. Any
language more utterly impossible at
first glance than the Assyrian arrow
headed language could not well be
imagined, but there are many learned
men who can read, write and speak ar
rowhead with facility. And yet no man
can make the least sense Of the writ
lngs left by the Etruscans, although
they are written in Roman characters.
All that we know Of the Etruscans
seems unreasonable and preposterous.
Naturally this makes them fascinating
to every one who delights in mystery

Hon Frank Johnson. of Pine Bar
rem, when called on at the Good
Roads Convention, said in part:
Il will not go into any statistics III
relattoa to the advantages of good
roads The benefits are so ample and
conspicuous that. to my mind, no fig
ures are necessary to show the advan
tages, and l will not speak of the
benefits from dollar basis. Neither
are the benefits confined to the rural
districts.
AS it was said in the days of the
Roman Empire, that all roads lead to
Rome. so here. and in every county,
all roads lead to the county seat and
the principal towns. and the business
people of the towns and cities should
be as much interested in building
good roads in rural districts as the
people who live adjacent to them. for
YOU cannot benefit the country dis
tricts without benefting the trade
CenterS"
BENEFITS ARE
INCALCULABLE.
Outside of a direct money benefit
to the country people there are many
others. Mail facilities. social and even
religious life are greatly benefited,
and anything that will benefit the con
ditions of the braun and muscle of
the land, those that earn an honest
living by the sweat of the plow
handle, the whip stock or peavy, and
their wives, daughters and sons. and
make their lot more satisfactory,
should have the support of every good
citizen.
And right here | want to say. after
a Nfe of twenty years with these same
people, farmers. lOgmen. saw mill
operators and other occupations in the
country districts. that nowhere can
a people be found more reliable,
more truly hOspitable. or more fully
endowed with the principles of rugged
honesty, than these same WOOL hat
boys, and their good wives and daugh-
ters. Their condition politically is
peculiar. or has been so. They are
supposed to work hard. pay their
taxes regularly, although their part
of the benefits are often nil: and,
when election day comes, try to smoke
a few poor cigars and vote for some
fellow in town and be good.
But good roads, daily mails and
newspapers and magazines. will prob
ably put them to thinking.
COUNTY LABOR AND
SHORT CONTRACTS.
Il wish to cOnf1ne my suggestions
principally to those county commits
sioners who have not as yet com
menced the building of good roads by
the labor of their county, or short
time contracts, and to point out to
them the advantages to be derived
from this course.
I do not know any better wav to
show them than by telling them
what we did in this county. and how
We did il.

The weather poet in this CLINE

The weather poet in this cline
Has troubles of his own,
He sings of sunstrOkes and wakes up
To find that snow has SHOWN.
He MARBLES of the snow and ice,
The sleet and all of that,
And then d thunderstorm comes up
And lightning strikes the fiat
He fumbles feebly in the fog,
And ere the night goes by
He sees the rings of Saturn with
His unassiSted eye.
He halls the longtime hidden sun,
Welcomed effulgent orb,
Meanwhile his shabby winter clothes
A three days rain absorb.
But time makes all things even, and
Some day he'll twang his harp
In vastly different climate, high
Above the weather sharp.
