Sound Advice.

An emigrant to one of our
Western states in writing back
to his old Kentucky home very
aptly and truly says, in speaking
of his adopted state and the
change he has made: "We have
good and poor land in this state.
AS rule people have no money
to give away. My experience is
that people who have enough to
eat and are out of debt had bet
ter stay at home. The Western
craze this day is mistake, but
try, to get you few acres of
land somewhere. There is no
place like a personal home. Old
age comes along by and by and
circles around you and say where
is your home"

Good Roads.

Fifty years ago there was some
excuse for bad roads, for our
country was poor. Now it. is
rich there is no excuse. A good
road is always to be desired, and
is source of comfort and conven-
fence TO every traveller. Good
roads attract population, as well
as good schools and churches.
Good roads improve the value of
property, so that it is said farm
lying five miles from market con-
nected by bad road, is of lees
value than an equally good farm
connected by a good road. A
larger load can be drawn by one
horse over a goo road than by
two over a bad one. Good roads
encourage the greater exchange
of products and commodities b
tween one section and anotheb.>
Good roads are of great value to
railroads and feeders.-Ex.

Strength of the Local Paper.

The local newspaper should be
found in every home. No child,
says the Centerville Observer,
will grow up ignorant who can
be taught to appreciate the home
paper. 1t is the stepping stone
to intelligence in all those mat
tiers not to be learned in books.
Give your children a foreign
paper which contains not one
word about any person, place or
thing which they ever saw, or
perhaps never heard of, and how
can you expect them to be inter-
ested?
But let them have the home
paper and read of persons whom
they meet, and places with which
they are familiar, and soon an
interest is awakened which in.
creases with every daily arrival
of the local paper.
Thus a habit threading is form
ed, and those children will read
the papers all their lives and be-
come intelligent men and wo-
men, a credit to their ancestors,
strong in their knowledge of the
world as it is today.

gun less than twenty-four inches
in length; also that pistol sup
