Advantages of Good Roads.
A country without roads wm re¬
main undeveloped, its hidden treas¬
ures stored away.
Where poor roads prevail every¬
thing else is apt to be poor, the
horse, farmer and merchant.
If two horses haul ths load of
four, one tyagnh haul the load of
two, oue set of harness haul the
load of two, one drtver serve to,
two and six miles instead of tim e
be made per hour, the aggregate
saving would double the net
income of the average farmer —
The desideratum can only be ac¬
complished by the means of good
public roads.
The effect of good public roads
upon land value is to increase the
value of such lands.
Experience has shown that the
value of ground is in direct ratio to
the good condition of the streets or
roads which traverse them.
A road system is the means of fa¬
cilitating intercourse.
Inter communication is the
backbone of business. Good pub¬
lic roads are the primary necess¬
ities of civilized life and national
prosperity.

The Horse Shoe-
Doubtless our reader? have often
been amused by the importance at¬
tached by some persons to the ac¬
cident of finding & horse shoe.
It is considered a mark of good
luck by. superstitious people, and
very many persons even among the
enlightened people of our own
country, cannot entirely divest
themselves of the idea that there
“is something in it.”
This regard for the horseshoe is
a relic cf superstition handed to us
from very remote times, and it is
apparently Celtic origin.
The reason why it is a sign of
good luck to find the article is be¬
cause the horseshoe operates as a
charm to keep off evil spirits.
Hence it is nailed up over the
door to prevent the entrance of
those obnoxious witches.
The magi tell ub the Evil One
has a tendency to move in circles,
and consequently when once inclo¬
sed in a horseshoe cannot easily
get out at the heel.
Upon this principle we would
auggest that instead of a horseshoe
a Ualf peck measure be put over
the door for the purpose of preven¬
tion ; for that presents a complete
instead of a broken circle.
Moreover, there are such small
devils about in these latter days
that one of them could trot all clay
in a half-peck measure without
once suspecting that he was im¬
prisoned,
About Murriagp.
No test of character is more try¬
ing than the test matrimonial, if
the contrasting parties are not per¬
fectly harmonious.
Marriage can become obnoxious
from excess of attention, if not in¬
dulged in the right spirit, and
equally from neglect and indiffer-
u nee.
A wife may make such demands
upon her husband’s attention and
time as to make him feel himself
little better than a slave, and sla¬
very is galling to the most sub¬
missive.
Such a wife puts shackles on his
feet, a palsy to his Lands, a burden
to his shoulders..
Each should have perfect confi¬
dence in the other.
Should one remain away from
the other any length of time unac¬
counted for by him, let silence bs
your monitor until a voluntary re¬
turn reveals the secret of the ab¬
sence.
Both men and women, united in
the marriage relation, are necessa¬
rily tried and perplexed at seasons,
when silence should close their lips
until moderation takes possession
of them.
Jealousness of even trifling nat¬
ure should uef. r C Vi i*i
- single moment.
To prevent all such misunder¬
standings, persons entertaining the
sacred ordeal of married life should
acquaint themselves with the dis¬
position, tastes, and unavoida¬
ble rebuirements of their part¬
ners, and then resolve to govern
th< mselves *s much as possible
■ he re by.

Blasts From Ram’s Mont.
Aw lies are great travelers.
The riches that run to us soon
dr <\ v* ay.
The greatest of all duties is the
present one.
A bad man hates the thing3 that
can do him good.
When we try to please everybody
we shall please nobody.
No would can hurt so badly as
the one inflicted by a friend.
A lie turns pale whenever it finds
out that truth is on its track.
It is easier to backslide at camp
meeting tnan it is in a shipwreck.
There are too many people who
are only pious when things go
right.
The world is full of heroes whose
names will never be known in this
life,
Some people would sell their
80 ula very cheaply for the promise
of spot cash.
No man has ever yet been able to
climb into heaven on a ladder of
his own make.
If you stop to debate any ques¬
tionable matter with the devil be
will outwit you.
The kind of religion that warms
and cheers is the kind that is full
of snnshine.
If stinginess is a disease there
are a good many people in the
church who are not healthy.
It is more than likely that in go¬
ing to the marriage the five foolish
virgins were at the head of the pro¬
cession.
