A LETTER
FORWOMEN
From a Woman Whose Serions Ill
ness Was Overcome by Lydia E.
Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound.
Garnett, Mas. —“I first took Lydia E.
Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound for a
0 complete nervoua
up too soon which
caused serious fe
male trouble. I was
so weak that I was >
not able to be on my
feet but very little
and could not do my
housework at all. I
bad a bad pain in my
left side and it
would pain terribly if I stepped off a
curb-stone. One day one of your book
lets was thrown in the yard and I read
every word in it. There were so many
who had born helj>ed by your medicine
that I wanted to try it and mv husband
went to town and got me a bottle. It
seemed as though I felt relief after the
second dose, so l kept on until I had
taken five 1 Kittles and by that time 1
was as well as I could wish. About a
year later I gave* birth to a ten pound
boy, and have had two more children
since and my health has been fine. If
1 ever have trouble of any kind I am ;
going tn*tuk« your medicine for I give
it nil the praise for my good health.
I always recommend your medicine ■
whenever I can.”-—iilra. Lva L. tillAV,

Tile roads’comprised in the cornpre j

ways, either in connection with

FARMER AND GOOD HIGHWAYS
«.
Has Become Hard Working and Vot j
ing Enthusiast for Improved Roads
Because of Many Benefits.
The biggest booster for good roads
in the country today is the farmer. A
few years ago he felt that the portion
of his taxes used in the construction
of permanent highways represented a
benefit only to the motoring tourist
and the city automobile owner, writes
11. W. Sluuson in Leslie’s. The farm
er argued that he was paying for
iheir pleasures, and the result was a
superstition against the good roads
movement.
Now, however, when the farmer
finds that his land lias trebled in val
ue: when the merchandise for which
he has telephoned In the morning can
be delivered by noon of the same day;
when the market for his own produce
Is brought hours nearer; when the
winter and it> fallowing spring thaw
possess no terrors Cor him -all this
because of the improved highway
which makes his farm only a suburb,
as it were, of the nearest city- ire i
naturally becomes a hardworking and
hnnl-\ntiug enthusiast for good roads.
GRAVEL GOOD FOR HIGHWAYS
1 When Properly Handled It Can Be
Traveled Over All Year—Dirt
Road Is Different.
While gravel, as a rule, does not
make the hest type of road, that is
I not so much the fault of the gravel
jas of the way it is put on. It is usu
! ally not evenly spread or leveled
down, nor are the holes kept filled, if
properly handled a gravel road can
at least be traveled on any time of
the year, which cannot be said of a
dirt road.
FARM ROADS MADE OF EARTH
|No Good Reason Why They Should
Not Be Graded Up and Main
tained in Good Condition.
The vast majority of the farm roads
must necessarily be of earth. How
| ever, there is no reason why they can
| not be graded up somewhat after the
| fashion of a public highway and main

FARM ROADS ARE ESSENTIAL
: Just as Important as Public Thorough
fares in Hauling Various
Kinds of Crops.
Many of us know the value of good
public roads, but how many of us
know the value of good roads on the
farm? Experience has taught that
good roads on the private farm are
just as essential and important as good
public road-*

Harnessing the Sun’s Rays.
That the rays of the sun can be used
for curing many skin diseases, and
that sun baths are beneficial to those
who are in perfect health, is well
known. The problem of utilizing this
agency in northern countries where
the hours of sunshine are few has
been solved, he claims, by a British
doctor, M. J. de Thezac.
His invention consists of a revolv
ing cabin, combined with a huge lens
for concentrating the rays on any part
of the Inclosed patient’s body. This
installation has just been tested in the
neighborhood of Qulmper, France-
