SULPHUR SPRINGS

Reading in the Spectator of March 23rd the method of road building. The article struck me as plausible, from the fact that the crusher and roller already bought could be used with the traction engine. If it cost no more than $17OO, in my estima- tion would be a good investment if it will do the work 1t is re- commended to do.
 But the proposition puts diff ferent meaning to me. l have talked to several out in my neighborhood and all seem to think it is no good as it sounds too However. do not think road up and down the railroad would be much benefit to the country generally from the fact which everybody must admit. the farmers travel is not up and down the river. but from north to south on this side and south to north on the other side.
 How many farmers use the so-called Wire road in going to market? Very few; nine tenths | of them cross the road only as live on the other side. So if the Wire road was graded and rock ed it would be but very little benefit to the county generally and would, according to my way of taking, would have to be paid for out of the county fund in- stead of the townships that used it. so you see, if understand it. it would be a very bad piece of class legislature.
 With all due respect to Judge Weaver 1 hope he will think twice before he advises the coun. ty court to form a road district of that kind.
 Very Respectfully.

 Two years ago one of our Il. can-take-a- drink-or- -let-it- alone friends said to us: If ever I found that Whiskey was getting a clutch on me I'd quit it just like that" ("that" being real snapping of the fnp- ers.) A month ago his doctor told him that whiskey was get ting his liver and that if he didn t quit it absolutely and at once he'd be in the hopeless cirrhosis class in no time. He tried to quit it just like that" and could not. Now he's in a sanitarium suffering a low grade delirium of agony for his enforced abstention but fighting it through.

Why Riley Liked It.

But That Was Not the Only Reason
Why Riley Liked 1t.
James Whitcomb Riley and Joel
Chandler Harris figure in a story told
by a writer in the New York Sun.
They had sought rest and recuperation
in hotel among the southern noun
tains and wished to avoid the attempts
of the other guests to lionize them.
Much against their wills, however,
they were constrained to appear at a
reading from their own works, after
having been routed from a secluded
spot in the woods to which they had
retired
A young elocutionist had the center
of the stage when they got to the ho-
tel. She led off by announcing poem
by Mr.. Riley. She recited it. 1t was
about somebody named Jim. Riley
looked impressed.
"Would you mind" he said when she
had finished, 'reciting that againY'
She did not mind, and went at it.
Riley wiped tear away as she finish
ed. Then he said, "Please recite it
again, If you will"
She did it the third time, and Riley
was even more affected.
"Do you know. he said, after she
had ended, II like that poem. It's
Jim poem. l always liked Jim poems.
My own name is Jim. always read
Jim poems / have written several
Jim poems myself. But do you know
why like this Jim poem better than
any other"
The young woman eagerly asked
why. The assembled guests leaned
forward breathlessly to hear the an
swer.
