Value of Good Roads.
Two men were recently discuss
ing the respective merits of tlieir
farms', says an exchange. Said
one, “I am only three miles from
market while you are five.” “Yes,
said the other, ‘‘hut my five miles
lie along a good level road over
which my two horses easily haul
two tons, while your road is hilly
and rough and you would not
think of putting more than a ton
on your wagon.”
Farmers are just beginning to
realize that the distance they are
from the market is properly meas
ured in time, not in miles; hence
the movement in favor of good
road*. The cost of getting pro
ducts to market is borne by the
producer. A bushel ni corn lias
different values indifferent parts
of the country, and this value is
the value in the ultimate market,,
h'ss the currying charge, says the
Dublin Times.
It will be easily seen tlint: any
redaction in the cost of marketing
a product is to the advantage of
the nation, for if the producer
doei not make the difference, the
consumer will. It should not be
difficult to convince the city man
thut he is directly interested in
the'construction and maintaining
of good roads. Tf he can be con
vinced of this fact he will be will
ing to be t axed that the , road
building may lie carried on in
"Ve*v part of the country of which
he is a resident.
Tin* value of land in remote sec
tions would be increased fifty per
cent, and in some cases one hun
dred per cent, by cutting and till
ing and smoothing t he roads lead
ing to it.
Force of Vibration.
“What force last expected does
the greatest damage to buildings?"
was the question asked a wflll
iknown architect . The architect's
answer may boa surprise to those
who do not understand that it is
the regularity of vibration that
makes it’ powerful.

THE BARNESVILLE NEWS-GAZETTE THURSDAY, MARCH 20, 1903
Juror Knew His Duty.
Attorney Sam Myers tells quite
a funny story of a murder trial
which occurred in Emanuel county
not very many years ago in which
the defendent was a negro. The
attorneys for the state and defense
were busy striking the jury. Sev
eral men had been selected, a
number had been objected to,
and a few had gone off for cause.
The clerk called ‘James Smith,’
and in stentorian tones the sher
iff' repeated the name. Over in one
of the seats somewhat near the
other jurors, sat an Emanuel
county farmer. Slowly he arose
to his feet and looked about the
court-room. The man had some
thing to spare on a measurement
of six feet, and would have push
ed 185 pounds pretty# close. He
was clad in a pair of jeans trous
< rs and a hickory striped shirt,
wearing no coat or tie. He finally
fixed his gaze on tin* solicitor as
that official commenced putting
the questions of the voir (loir, the
juror meanwhile munching a quid
of tobacco.
‘‘Have you, from having seen
the crime committed, or heard
any of the testimony delivered
under oath, formed or expressed
any opinion as to the guilt or
innocence of the prisoner at the
bar?” asked the solicitor.
Mr. Smith increased the pres
sure on the tobacco and thought
a few seconds seriously. Su denly
stepping a little to one side he
expectorated a sufficient quantity
of saliva and tobacco juice to half
till a tomato can, and jerked out:
“1 lmin’t.”
‘‘ls there auy bias resting upon
your mind either for or against
the prisoner at the bar?” asked
the solicitor.
The juror rested liis hands on
the back of the bench in front of
him, bowed his head in deep
thought for a few seconds, expec
torated again, and said,:
“Thar hain’t.”
“Is your mind perfectly impar
tial as between the State and the
accused?” asked the court official.
Again Smith thought, expecto
rated and replied:
“it are.”
“Are you opposed to capital
punishment?” asked the solicitor.
Hurriedly expectorating, Mr.
Smith straightened up and said:
“What you mean?”
The Judge interposed and said:
“He means, Mr. Smith, if testi
mony strong enough were submit
ted to find the prisoner guilty
of murder, would your conscien
tious scruples prevent you from
easting a vote to impose the death
penalty. If you believed the man
guilty would you be opposed to
the penalty of death being im
posed? Do you understand me
now?”
“Yep,” replied Smith,
“Repeat the question to the
juror, Mr. Solicitor,” said the
.1 ndge.
“Are you conscient iouslyoppos
ed to capital punishment?” said
the solicitor.
I hain't,” said Smith.
Juror looked upon the prisoner :
prisoner looked upon the juror.
What say you?” said the solic
itor.
Smith stepped out into the aisle
until he was near the prisoner.
He looked the accused limn over
from head to* foot; placed his
hand on his knees, struck a base
ball attitude and gazed into the
prisoner’s eye for fully a minute,
when he suddenly straightened up
to his full height and facing the
bench, said:
“Jodge, he are guilty.”

New Smallpox Preventative.
Medical Talk is the title of a
bright little periodical published
atColumhus. Ga. In a recent num
ber we notice an editorial on the
subject of smallpox, and the very
startling declaration is made that
lettuce is a sure preventative of
the disease.
Here is a pointed extract from
the article: “We say without the
least hesitation or reserve that
lettuce will prevent smallpox.
It is a thousand times better than
vaccination. It has no liabilities,
like vaccination, to produce other
diseases. We are willing to stake
our professional reputation on the
broad statement that any one
who eats lettuce daily will not
catch smallpox, whether he he
vaccinated or not. We hope that
every reader who has confidence
in our statement will pass this
along.”
While we place little confidence
in tl© remedy we cheerfully “pass
it along.” Lettuce is one of the
daintiest and most wholesome of
vegetables and while it may not
prevent smallpox, we do believe
it is conducive to good health.
There’s a story of a farmer and

and refused to pull. “What,ll we
do father?” said the younger man.
■‘Well” said the father ,“I guess
we,ll have to lay the load on the
old gray. ’’That homely com
pliment to women: “The gray
mare’s the better horse 11 suggests

Cured by one Bottle of Chamberlain's

] Shortsville, N. A’. “This is the honest
! truth. lat times kept from coughing
j myself t o pieces by taking a teaspoon
: ful of this remedy, and when the cough
ing spell would come on at night I
would take a dose and it seemed that
in the briefest interval the cough would
i pass off and I would go to sleep perfect
ly free from cough and its accompany
j ing pains. To say that the remedy act -
led as a most agreeable surprise is
putting it very mildly. I had no idea
j that it would or could knock out the
j grip, simply because I had never tried
| it for such a purpose, but it did, and
it seemed with the second attack of
coughing the remedy caused it to not
only be of less duration, but the pains
were far less severe, and I had not
used the contents of one bottle before
Mr. Grip had bid me adieu.” For sale
