hardly distinguishable from a religious ,
feeling. What deep and worthy love
is uot so? whether of woman or child, 1
or art or music? Our caresses, our tender
words, our still rapture under the
influence of Autumn sunsets, or pillared
vistas, or calm, majestic statues, or
Beethoven symphonies, all bring with
tbem the consciousness that they are I
mere waves and ripples In an unfathom- i
able ocean of love and beanty; our emotion
In its keenest moment peases from
expression Into silence; our love at its 1
highest flood rushes beyond its object, i
and loses Itself in the sense of divine
mystery. Is it any weakness, pray, to
t>? wrought on by exquisite music ? to
feel its wonderous harmonies searchlug
the subtlest windings of your soul, '
the delicate fibres of life where no .
memory can penetrate, and binding
together your whole being, past and
present, in oue unspeakable vibration,
melting you in one moment with all
the tenderness, all the love that has |
been .scattered through the toilsome i
years, concentrating in one emotion of i
heroic courage or resignation all the i
hard-learned lessons of of self-renounc- i
ing sympathy, blending your present i
joy with past sorrow, and your present <
?orrow with all your past joy? If not, 1

wrought upon by the exquisite curve* <

more than woman's love that moves as I

the rounded neck, the dimpled arms

BOADS OF THE SOUTfl
HIGHWAY IMPROVEMENT IN THE
SOUTHERN STATES.
Can Boast of Some of the Beat B?d*
In the World?The Employment ol
Convict* on the Hlffhwaya of Rerth
CarolUuu
Among the many interesting and vsluable
articles published in ft recent
number of Harper's Weekly was the
following on highway improvement in
tbe south:
One of tbe most important, bat
least conspicuous, movements In the
new south is that being made In behalf
of good country roads. About
fifteen years ago there was a general
revival bf interest in the building of
country roads, and now many communities
in tbe south have systems of
roads of which they justly feel proud.
Even North Carolina, long known as
the Rip Van Winkle of the southern
state*, has at last awakened and Is
giving lessons to the outside world In
the constru^pon of good roads. It is

oo exaggeration to say that the roads
of Mecklenburg county, N. C, are the
best to be found in the entire Month.
The county of Mecklenburg la near
the South Carolina 'line, and is pierced
by that division of the Southern nilroad
which extends from Washington
to Atlanta. Tbe county seat la Char*
lotte, a progressive city of thirty thousand
inhabitants. Within a radios
of one hundred miles of this city thee*
are three hundred cotton factories,
comprising more than half of the spindles
and looms operated in the sooth.
In 1890 the authorities of the comity
conceived the Idea of utilizing the con*
vlcts for the Improvement of the public
roads. Instead of locking up offenders
In tbe county jail or sending
them to the penitentiary It was decided
to employ them at home in Improving
tbe blgbwaya. A law was paand
authorizing the use of convicts for
this purpose. The convicts were organized
Into a squad or camp, placed
under the control of a competent supervisor
and engineer, and the work
of grading, straightening and macadamising
the roads was begun. A abort
experience demonstrated that the convict
laborers cost the county only 25
cents per dsy per head. Including food.
lodging, clothing and overseeing.
The outfit for the road work, consisting
of .a steam roller, crasher, bins,
portable engine, road machine tad a
screen for aaaorting the rocks, cost
about $5,000. At present the county
has In operation tyo road outfits and
employs' about sixty convicts with
each outfit. The total expenditure In
constructing each mile of macadamised
road is from $1,600 to $2,800,
not including bridges. In summer the
convicts live In tents along the road,
snd in winter they live in barracks.
The rock used for the roads Is bought
from tbe farmers, who haul and deposit
It at tbe convict camp
These roods have been In process of
construction for twelve years at the
rate of about ten miles per year. At
present there are more than 100 miles
of macadamized roads In the county.
Tbe roads radiate in all directions from
the center of Charlotte and extend ten
or fifteen miles to the county limits.
The roads of this county have become
so famous that delegations from many
other states have come here to inspect
them.
Many good roads organizations exist
In the, south. Professor J. A. Holmes
of the University of North Carolina
hat traveled In many states, giving Illustrated
lectures on road construction
and organizing good roads clubs.
Hia campaign baa borne much fruit,
and the south can now boast of some
of tbe best and most picturesque roads
In tbe whole world.
IccMdtr For Dnlaac*.
In the improvement of earth roads
one very Important essential often
overlooked la the necessity for drainage
to carry off the surplus water before
It can soak Into the surface, says
Good Itoada Magazine. Good roads
can be constructed even In a prairie
country, and by the adoption of improved
method* Immediate recovery
from the effecta of heavy ralna may be

tlve, and with even a shallow dressing
of crushed stone or gravel on ths ?urface
of an earth road wonderful Improvement
can be secured.
fhoald Laat Pop a(M.
There is uo reason in the world why
a road should not ?ast for ages If It Ir'
built of good material anil kept In proper
repair. If this is not done, the moo* v
ey spent is more thun wasted. It Is
more economical, as a rule, to bring
good materials a long distance by rail
or water than to employ Inferior one*
procured close at band.
Serviceable For Country Road*.
Burned gumbo is a very serviceable
material for use on country roads. It
