B. Kennedy, pastor of tbe Asioclate Reformed Cbarob, for tbe last two Bunday mornings spoke of tbe Joy wblob religion would give?the Joy and the happiness re suiting from tbe consciousness of duty w?ll performed?tbe Joy wblob comes from tl.e possession of, a pure mtnd and a pure body?tbe Joy which we express la thankfulness to tbe Fatber of ns all for tbe mat y blessings and benefits wbich we dally receive?the Joy which we realise from a correct living In the discharge of duty to oni* neighbor and to tbe Aatbor of oar being. He o(ih?"inv" in nontradlntlnction to tha ?"V J-/ ? ? ? unwilling service" wblch may be reluctantly given. The Religion of Jesus Christ *u not intended to shut the light and the suushlne from our hearts. It was not lnteuded to deprive us of any rational pleasure or Innocent amusement. While we are responsible lor the training and the conviction of the conscience, the conscience within was the only safe guide and that safe guide would not make life less happy or more cheerless. Tbe true Christian would be more Joyous becaute of the possession of that spirit wblch would render adoration and homage to the great overruling Spirit. From this outline, or the headings of the sermon, It will be teen tbat it was de Jlvered from a practical or a rational standpoint, from which the hearts and the minds of the bearers might be reached. He gave us no speculations as to the unrevealed, will of our Father, and be did not attempt tbeologlial problems lor tbe reason, as be said, that we might not understand those tblngo. But be saltf the child and tbe.uniutored minds 01 grown men and women could not fall to understand any chapter In tbe simple story ; of the life and tbe labors of our Saviour. Stories of the incidents In the life of Jesus , Cbrlat were bo plain and to forceful that nons could (alt to understand them or lo .realise their trutbs. Therefore In aeeklng to rollow In the footatepa of oar Great Ezamplar light and Joy. pleasure and bapplneaa?not sadness and sorrow?not darkness and gloom?would oome to the buman heart. The prayer wblob was part of the service; was an earnest appeal In bebalf of ns all. 1 was comforting and sonl satisfying to the purest and the best as well as gratliying , to those miserable sinners wbo may be out o the pale of the oburch. I Talking for Abbeville. Mr. Charley A. Smith la one of the best talkera-up of Abbeville that we have seen, i He says that everybody baa plenty of money, < that there are more buay mecbanlca In town than ever before, that an Idle man, wbo want* a Job, cannot be round, we agree wun blm in the belief that tbla la good tows. And If be bad said tbat kickers and growl- i era ongbt to be aaked to move to otber plaoea wbleb tbey may like belter, we would agree wltb tbat too. Wben a mac rnna down the i town in wblob be llvea be oogbt to get oot. And we bope If tbere la snob; a person In Afc- i berllle, tbat be will move off. He is no good < to tbe town and bla room Is more deslaable i than bla presenoe. If yon b*ai anybody i talking down tbe town In wblcb be Uvea, | pleaae aak blm wbat be baa done to bntld up bis town. Boob people are mere scabs on tbe i body polltlo. And we do not need soabs in ( Abbeville. Scabs are worse tban vagrants, i Vagrants do no barm, except to potole tbe i air wblob tbey breatbe, bat grumblers noi | only polute tbe air wblob tbey breatbe, bat i tbey do barm by tbelr talk.

Tba proper way to regard saoh Is: Tbe offlcer who has dealt honestly and discharged big doty faithfully Is entitled to tbe assurance wblcb a close scrnntlnlzlog of his actings and doings woald give. , Instead, therefore, of expert examination bfttng regarded as a sort of implied reflection on;tb? officer, tbe failure to demand such verification of bis accounts might leave grounds ' for suspicion that all Is not well. Every bonest 1 officer who bandies public money should de- ' maud close examination of bis work, Just as ' every honest financial agent should publish an Itemized statement of bla aooount. Notb ' log so carefully guards tbe public as publlcl- 1 ty.

Tbe two Doe rooms are In tbe end opposite to where ey were In tbe old depot. Tne bouse sets iok from tbe main track about fifteen feet rlber tban tbe old depot, and we are told iat an additional track is to be laid. Tbe atform space Is muob less tban formerly. ie cbanged conditions and tbe changed ilea of tbe oompany In making prompt ilpmenta and in requiring prompt taking ray of goods reduces tbe demand for platrm space. The old depot was of brick made on tbe >ot. Tbe foundations were laid of stone in tod mortar, and tbe walla were two brick 7 Inches) thick. While the building was In uelapldaled condition, and presented an apsaranee not tbe most pleasing, jet, alter refnl examination in taking It down we ive more respect lor It now tban formerly. ie stoue and brick work was well done, and ie roof was a tresis, and. .we tblnk tbat little sprovement could be made on It today, ie new roof basonly four truss e while tbe d roof bad seven, tbe principle being tbe me in botn.

It Is a pleasure to note tbat perfectly good sling exists between management of tbe d and tbe new warehouses. Tbe business tbe season has been far in txceoB of tbe >lllty of botb bouses, and tbe need for more a rehouse room Is apparent.

MARROW WHEELWAYSTO BE LAID IN THE '^rwADAM. EVonld Wear a Long Time and Decr?AM j Traction ? Details of Construction at>J Difficulties to Be Overcome?Many Good Features of the Suggestion. General Roy Stone, director of road Inquiry, department of agriculture, in iircular No. 25 qnotea from The Engineering News- regarding the laying )f strips of brick paving in macadam roadways. The News says: "It appears to us that this combination of brick and macadam is the most promising plan for the improvement of suburban streets and country roads of heavy traffic that has appeared in a long time and deserves consideration by ? I- ? /1a rnifK *n on. uvery engineer wuu uao w uu jjl..... ad am roads. There are thousands of miles of city streets where the abutting owners can ill afford tbe assessments for tbe cheapest of block or asphalt pavements, and on tbe other bund the traffic is such tbat tbe maintenance of present macadam streets is o heavy harden. Cannot the needs of snoh cases be met by placing a brick roadway in the middle of the street and covering all the rest of tbe width between the cnrbB with broken stone?" The News also makes an additional suggestion in the direction of economy which may well lead to further experiment in this method of construction. It says: "But in localities where there is a long freight haul on paving brick the expense of even a 7 foot strip of brick in a road might be prohibitory. In such localities the scheme is worth considering, it appears to us, of laying two parallel narrow strips of paving brick through the middle of a macadam road, as illustrated in the accompanying orosa section. These strips might be 16 to 20 inches in width and of such gange that vehioles of all classes could follow them as they would a line of rails. The decreased traction on suob a surface would be practically as great as if steel rails were laid in the macadam, as has been proposed, and if properly laid they would wear a very long time under any traffic where a macadam road is justiflfthln at alL "There are thousands of places where a short piece of roadway is subjected to a very heavy traffic. Such roads occur around factories, mills, mines, quarries, railway stations and many other places. In many of these places an ordinary OBOflS SECTION OF BRICK TRACKWAYS, UND?Ui)KAINED AND STONE CUBBED. dirt road is in use, and teams are hauling over it loads not one-fourth as large as they could haul over a hard surface. In many other cases stone roads have been laid and are effecting a great saving over the old dirt roads in cost of haulage, but are expensive to keep in repair under the heavy loads that pass over them. For such places as these the plan of using paving brick to take the heavy wear appears to be especially advantageous and deserving of extended adoption. "The details of construction, such as the foundation under the bricks, the construction of the macadam at their Bides and between them, the filling between the briok8, eta, would vary with local circumstances and with the teachings of experience, but they need not be considered in a study of the merits of the scheme generally. ' 'It may be pointed ont also in this connection that snch a strip of brick pavement as is here proposed would make an admirable road for cycling, and the influence of that important body of agitators for road improvement might well be exerted in favor of this proposition." The drawbacks to the narrow strip method of construction are the danger of the tilting of the outside bricks in driving on and off, or crossing the line with heavy load**, and the danger of disruption or displacement by frost To meet the first of these difficultly a curbing of rorgh stone might be laid. If Btone is Dot available, brioks could be set on end for curbing, or a special form of brick might be designed for the purpose, of which the surface would form part of the traokway. In cases where damage by frost is tc be apprehended on account of the charnf Hio onil nnnsfrnnfinn mioht be combined -with that of the Illinoia farm roads need by Judge Caton. The combination would be as shown in the accompanying cut The ditch above the draintile, could be filled with any ooarse materials? field stone, or quarry spalls too soft or gravel too large for roads, or with the burned clay in lumps which is used for ballast on some of the prairie railroads ?this filling to be rammed or rolled down and covered with a little gravel and enough Hand for bedding the bricks. A light coatiug of gravel would serve for the space between the traoks and outside of them. A road so built and proteoted should last for many years with no repair except to replace the gravel worn out by the horses' feet. Wide Tire* Do the Best. Many a county road, today a typical ">lough of despond," would be so im? proved by the use of wide tires properly arranged that repairing it to first plan condition would require proper drainage only, by shaping the surface pnd keeping the side ditches clear, leaving the rolling of wide tires to do the rest.?l<.
