Now is the time for the overseers
of the county roads to get busy. 1t
will be only few weeks until circuit
court, and in order for the overseers
on some roads to escape an indict-
ment is to summons hands and get to
work, working out the six days pre-
scribed by law. 1t is shame that SC
little work is done on the highways i'll
good weather. When heavy rains
come the work can not be done, but
when that condition comes there is a
general complaint about bad roads
when no one is to blame byt the over
seers and the men who are under him.

1t is extremely unpleasant for a
sensitive woman who before marriage
had been earning her own living and
had been accustomed to spending her
income as she pleased, to ask man
for money to buy everything she needs,
such as pins, etc. 1t seems to US no
more than right that a man should
give his wife for her own necessities,
at least half as much money as he
would servant. She keeps his house
provides for the comfort of himself
and children, not for hire but because
she loves them, and she cares for huS-
bands interest as no hired housekeep-
er would and is she not entitled to
pay for her services? Yet some men
would think it hardship to pay
wife the amount he would be obliged
to pay Servand girl. There is many
a woman among the working classes
who would think herself highly favor
ed if she were sure of fifty cents per
week Of her husbands wages to spend
as she pleased. The above hints are
for the husbands who need them and
written in consideration of their good
wives.

Meet me at the Fair.

Parents, guardians and others who
will have charge of children in the
schools should make all the necessary
arrangements at once to put the chill
dren in school at the opening and
keep them there regularly as possible.
An education is the best preparation
for life that you can give a child.
Don't think that it is better for the
child to learn few dollars a week"
now than to be in the school. His
school days will soon be over and then
he must go through life handicapped
and able only to learn few dollars a
week" all his life, if able to get work
at all. 1t is your duty to the child to
keep it in school dnring the forma-
tive period, while its mind is suscep-
tible to teaching and develops rapid
ly in response to action.
