Some Things Good Roads Will Do 1. They will tend to equalize the people of the city and the country and bring greater harmony be tween them. 2. They will lesson the danger of monopoly in city markets. 3. They will do away with the unreasonable transportation rates and will permit the producer and consumer to have easierandcheap er access to the markets. Do you know the kind of a fellow who's just to the world’s mind? The kind the world can’t loose? The kind that folks get enthusiastic over and to whom they doff their hats? Well, it’s the man who does. Not the fel low whose grand father got there; not the fellow who would if he could; not the gentleman who is going to some day, but the man who-does now', today. The following are, in part, re marks made by A. J. Norton, president of the Old Colony Club in a short article invthe January issue of the Old Colonv Magazine. They cover so well the present need of service in the financial situation now prevailing that we are repeating them here. The laboring and selling classes which really comprise America, can see by this that'the length and strength -oHhe present financial crises rest, largely with them. “The long foreshadowed period of deflation has arrived,” says Mr. Norton.” Credits are being cur tailed in every non-productive di rection, commodity prices are tumbling. The deflation process, in order to make the cycle com plete, must extend to production costs, either through readjust ment of wages, or through stimu- EXCELLENT MONROE COUNTY FARMS FOR SALE Improved and Unimprovd.

Those businesses will best weather the storm, all other conditions being equal, that set as their aim the giving of a maximum of service to the con sumers of their product at a mini mum of cost. > “Easy money’ in legitimate bu siness is, for the time being, a thing of the past. The business man who would hold the position he has already gained—still more he who would climb to the great • er heights—will find the road to success more and more closely paralleling the path of service. “Not only dollars but men are called upon to do double duty. Every seeing business execu tive must realize that he must supplement the conservation of his capital by the conservation of his personal energies, so as to make every individual action as well as each particular dollar count decisively for success.” Certain labor leaders have learn ed in the past few months that it dosen’t pay to teach disrespect of the law.

American business is not unheal thy; it is just reducing its waist line by a necessary, though un comfortable, dieting that it’s ex perienced heads have ordered. To take a real step forward, busi ness has been taking an apparent step back. I A great many of our so-called “law-abiding citizens” have a habit we notice, of keeping the laws they like and breaking the ones they like. Such a rule shows bol shevik tendencies at its root and it is to be hoped that Bolshevism and Americanism lie as far apart as the two poles. The man who talks little but does much toward showing visi tors the advantages possessed by his town or section is the man who really counts in the obtaining of enterprises and making cities out of villages. CARDU! HELPED REGAIN STRENGTH Alabama Lady Was Sick For Tbrefl Years, Suffering Pain, Nervous and Depressed—Read Her Own Story of Recovery. Paint Rock, Ala. —Mrs. C. M. Stegall, of near here, recently related the fol- j lowing Interesting account of her re covery: “I was in a weakened con dition. I was sick three years in bed, suffering a great deal of pain, weak, nervous, depressed. I was so weak, I couldn’t walk across the floor; just had to lay and my little ones do the work. I was almost dead. I tried every thing I heard of, and a number of doctors. Still I didn’t get any relief. I couldn’t eat, and slept poorly. I believe if I hadn’t hoard of and taken Cardui I would have died. I bought Bix bottles, after a neighbor told me what it did for her. "I began to eat and sleep, began to gain my strength and am now well and strong. I haven’t had any trou ble since ... I sure can testify to the good that Cardui did me. I don’t think there is a better tonic made and I believe it saved my life.” For over 40 years, thousands of wo men have used Cardui successfully, in the treatment of many womanly ailments. If you suffer as these womon did* take Cardui. It may help you, too. At all druggists.
