OOR fITV CAMPAIGN.
A gentleman who takes irnch in
tereat in the prospt-ritv of or r city
said to us jester lav, " I'll t!l ;on

next. It is of more importance than
mtnufacturing, electric Street. Kail
way or anything else. I refer to the
improvement of our streets." And
this trentleman is correct. As lie sug
rested, from three to five thousand
dollars are being invested every year
in temporary improvements, a very
large proportion, so temporary that
they are wasted away by the first
hard rain. What we want and what
the interests of the city demand, is
more solid, permanent improvement
of the streets. Many of our side
walks are a shame to any city, wash
ed into gulleys and gorges, with rocks
and roots sticking out, making it un
safe to walk on them except in bright
day light, or with a good lantern at
night. The city should grade both
streets and side walks and put stone
curbing to the latter co secure uni
formity, and then put crushed rock
on the streets and side walks and
collect from property owners for do
ing their paving for them, or do it at
the city's expense, or require the pro
perty owners to do it all themselves
It should be done somehow. We re
allv incline to the opinion that, all
street improvements should be made
at publin expense, but that does not
seem to be the construction of the
city charter. The city should get a
first class rock crusher and during
the summer put the streets in a more
presentable shape. Our city fathers
should get out of the rots and make
such improvements on our streets
ever? year as will be permanent.
Several of the side walks running
from Wilmington to Blount sts are not.
used at all, for the reason that they
are not in a condition to be used
This is the case in many parts of the
city. The fencing had about as wdl
be moved out to where the curbing
should be, so far as the use these
sidewalks are to pedestrians. Thk
Visitor has ofcen refened to these
needed improvements, but our city
authorities seem slow to recognize
their importance. Everybody ex
pects the streets to be paved and fix
ed up nicely some day, but we are
waiting for somebody else to do it
and every year the city is growing
and the job is getting bigger, and
more repulsive and we are continuing
to put. the mud back to the centre
only to be washed to the gutters
again by the next heavy rain.

Correspondence of Visitor.
I am a waif, and looking for a pro
viding hand in a good home. My
present place of sojourn is next door
to the reading room of the Raleigh
and Gaston Railroad, In the city of
EUleigh. I am abo'it two years old.
and physically bright, strong, and
perfectly healthy. I descended from
Ik rge sized people, they, also, being
of good intellectual calibre. My great
grandfather was a Baptist preacher,
and of local prominence iu another
county. Be preached the gospel aud
served churches as pastor for small
pay. My grandfather a a teacher
of youth, but was victimized by mis
fortune. He stood high in his eectii n
as a Mason, and often came to Ral
eigh as a representative to the tir m ?
Lodge of Masons. My mother is Lis
daughter. My father is a practicing
phyelciau in mother couuty , butdars
i,ot provide for his progeny. So I turn
to some friend of humanity, to some
disciple of Ohrist, and ask to be taken
to a hoin. Iam pronounced by those
who have seen me a fine specimen of
childhood. Who knows what I would
be if some kind one would take and
provide tor me?
My name, too, is David. The writ
ings of my illustrious namesake are
now being studied by the various
day Schools of the world. He said of
himself. ' Behold, I was shapen in
iniquity, and in sin did my mother
conceive me." thus declaring the de
pravity of poor human nature. There
is no exception to this humiliating
truth. But the cure exists ia Christ,
through faith, in his name. He di
rects that children should be trained
up in the way they should go.
Reader, come to see me. I am now
taken care of by a friendly hard, but
I want a permanent home.

That
Tired Feeling
Is a dangerous condition due directly to de
pleted or impure blood. It should, not be
allowed to continue, as in its debility the
vst.m is esDeciallv liable to serious attacks
of Illness. It is remarkable how beneficial
Hood's Sarsaparillais in this enervating state.
Possessing just those ele
HOOd'S ments which the system
Sarsana need3 and readilv seizes,
F this medicine purifies the
rilla blood, and Imparts a feeling
of serene strength which is comforting and
satisfying. Hood's Sarsaparilla is the best
remedy for that weakness which prevails at
change of season, climate or life.
"I have been convinced m.i...
that Hood's Sarsaparilla is " ,
one of the greatest medl- the Weak

this for the benefit of all &
