We would like to seo Now. berry county secure twenty-fivo oi thirty convicts just as soon as sh< can, and when p)ut together with th< varying force on the chain gang wt could soon have some good roads They should be kept on permanent work and not floated around over the county cleaning out ditches or Iilling lip holes which wvill have to ho dont over after each rain. WVhat we need is some permanent road building Start out from the court house as th< centre of the county and make ma cadam roads for four or five miles ir every direction in which there is F road and keep on exteniding thos< roads until they reach to every por tion of the county. All time roadt cannot be built at once and tile atari must be made somewhere and thE start should be made where it. wil do the most good to thme greatest number, and for that reason we sug gest that we begin at the cour house. A good force kept steady ai the work would soon give ussotm< roads and we would be surprised at tbt progress made.

My lungs and bronchial tubes were very sore at 1 this tirpe, but I was completely j cured by this remedy, and have since always turned to it when I got a cold, I and soon find relief.

I montion t he account in this work because it is a com priehnsivo aund singuiarly graphic ono-it is writtin in just such a style as will mako a Insting impres-ion on the minds of childron entering their teons. Few peoplo canl ever realize whatColumnbia passed through with on that 17th day of i'eb. six and thirty years ago. and as a part of the history of our State, this buirning ought to bo por traved to the school children so that. they will have a comprehensive idea of the shame and magnitude of this great crime. It would be well to read Col. Dickert's account. to the children, if for no othei reason, sim ply because he makes mention of the grand heroism displayed by two of Columbia's ladies, Mrs. Miller and Miss Loner. I hope the teachers will not con sider me forward in making thissug gestion. Whon the history of our State is taught, in the schools, let it be taught in such a way that it will prove interesting to the children, and sometimes by reading extracts from works such as Dikert's history, it will not only make the subject inter esting, but it will also make a lasting impression on the minds of the scho lars.
