THE ROAD QUESTION.
The legitimate function of a high,
way is, first the accomodation of
private owners.of vehicles. They are
not intended, as permanent road
beds for transportation business, and
can never bp depended upon to fill
that function.
We have not yet developed a road
which will, stand the everlasting
pounding of ’tliis traffic for which
highways were never intended.
Roads that were built honestly for
95 per cent of the traffic have been
hammered to pices by 5 per cent of
the traffic.
The early destruction of many
highways has called for rebuilding
on a far more expensive scale, and
for all new highways to he designed
for the heaviest traffic, which is only
5 per cent. Are we to continue this
expensive construction to provide
a practically free right of way road
bed and maintain the same for a
traffic which pays nothing for its
use except n simple license, the
same as any pleasure vehicle?
It is generally conceded that a
highway capable of standing the le
gitimate 95 per cent can be built
for $30,000 per mile (50,000 per
mile, an extra $20,000 per mile for
5 per cent of the travel. Are we go
ing to stand f6r this—to make and
maintain such roads for traffic nev
er contemplated, which cannot take
the place of raiilroads, and only
serves to bankrupt them?
Electric and steam railroads are
absolutely the only safe, sane and
permanent means of commercial
traffic; and no country can prosper
without them. Their rights of way
must be bought, tunnels and cuts
■made, bridges' and culverts built,
tracks laid, engines and cars built,
and all kinds of buildings erected at
enormous cost to operate this essen
tial means of transportation. The
same railroads must pay their share
of cost and maintenance of the high,
way which are giving practical'y
free rights to their competitors. Can
we do this without railroads? Ts not,
we should see that they have the
right to a fair return on their in
vestments.
The farmers have suffered be
cause the public authorities, in em
ploying people, set a day rate with
short hours, that would bankrupt
every farmer in the whole state if
he ha dto meet it and he is more or
less in competition with it. When a
man in the hay field or milking cows
receives $3 a day working 10 hours
ands bids out that right along the
road a fellow' is working at $1 or
<a day, 8 hours, the farm employes
becomes dissatisfied and trouble
arises.
Tattos on farms are running ex
ccssiv ly high. If we do not take
care of *his industry, which furnish
es 80 ptr cent of all th: production,
we uu not long boast of being the
gicat United States.
’.Vhy not regulate n;<C .r common
carriers and require them to ply
ib'ir equitable proportion, of the
highway costs?

PATRONIZE HOME MERCHANTS.
The slogans of “buy at home’’;
“trade at home” have been used so
much until they have become shop
worn, but there is much importance
in the practice. No community can
hope to grow and prosper unless our
people trade with the local mer
chants and patronize those indus
tries which are helping to support
the community in every way. A
merchant pays taxes; he subscribes
to every fund for civic, charitable
and religious movements inaugurat
ed by our people. He is called upon
day in and day out for contributions.
If he refuses he is called a tight
wad and an “old timer” and ac
cused of not being up to date and
progressive. All the burdens of the
community rest upon the commercial
interests and from them is expected
the support of all movements.
The Schley County News has the
following comment on why one
should “buy at home” which strikes
to the point and should cause our
people to realize the importance of
trading with local merchants.
Because my interests are here.
Because the community that is
good enough for me to live in is
good enough for me to buy in.
Because I believe in transacting
business with my friends.
Because 1 want to see the goods.
Because I want to get what I pay
for.
Because every dollar I spend at
home stays at home and helps work
for the welfare of the city.
Because the man I buy from
stands back of the goods.
Because the man I buy from pays
his part of the city and county tax
es.
Because the man I buy from helps
support my school, my church, myi
lodges and my home.
Here is where I live and where 1 1
buy.

TURN HAIR DARK
WITH SAGE TEA
If Mixed with Sulphur It Darkens
So Naturally Nobody
Can Tell
The old-time mixture of Sage Tea
and Sulphur for darkening gray,
streaked and faded hair is grandmoth
er’s recipe, and folks are again using it
to keep their hair a good, even color,
which is quite sensible, as we areMiv
ing in an age when a youthful appear
ance is of the greatest advantage.
Nowadays, though, we don’t have the
troublesome task of gathering the sage
and the mussy mixing at home. All
drug stores sell the ready-to-use prod
uct, improved by the addition of othr*-
ingredients, called ‘'Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound.” It is very popu
lar because nobody can discover it has
been applied. Simply moisten your
comb or a soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time; by morning the gray
hair disappears, but what delights the
ladies with Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur
Compound, is that, besides beautifully
darkening the hair after a few applica
tions, it also produces that soft lustre
and appearance of abundance which is
so attractive.
Drink Water to
Help Wash Out
Kidney Poison
If Your Back Hurts or Bladder
Bothers You, Begin
Taking Salts
When your kidneys hurt and your
back fee s sore don’t get scared and pro
ceed to load your stomach with a lot of
j drugs that excite the kidneys and irri
tate the entire urinary tract. Keep
your kidneys clean like you keep your
bowels clean, by flushing them with a
mild, harmless salts which helps to re
move the body’s urinous waste and stim
ulates them to their normal activity.
i he M fUn J Ct, °, n °J. tllc kidneys is to filter
the blood. In 24 hours they strain from
it SUU grams of acid and waste, so we
can readily understand the vital impor
, keeping the kidneys active.
Urink lots of good water—you can’t
drink too much; also get from any phar
macist about four tjunces of Jad Salts;
take a tablespoonful in a glass of water
before breakfast each morning for a
few days and your kidneys may then
act fine. This famous salts is made
rom the acid of grapes and lemon
juice, combined with lithia, .and has been
used for years to help clean and stimu
late clogged kidneys; also to neutralize
the acids in the system so they are no
longer a source of irritation, thus often
relieving bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; can not in
jure, makes a delightful effervescent
lithta-water drink, which everyone
should take now and then to help keep
their kidneys clean and active... Try ,
tins; also keep up the water drinking,
and no doubt vou will wonder what
became of your kidney trouble and back r
ache. By all means have your physi
cian'examine your kidneys at least twice
a year.
