Sa vannah. The national highway now runs from Washington, D. C., to At lanta, via. Augusta. The Morning News has this to say: In extending the federal supervision from Augusta to Jacksonville, the most direct and practical route foi tile entire stretch would be chosen, avoiding long detours and loops wher ever possible. From Augusta to Sa - vannah this supervision would very probably he over the road passing through Richmond, Burke, Screven and Effingham, but not Chatham county.

Hawley, 3646 Chestnut St., Philadelphia, writes: “Some months ago my attention was called to EX-ZEMA-FO, claimed to be a specific for eczema. The remedy was highly lauded by an eminent jurist, who obtained complete relief from its use. I am somewhat loath to employ or recommend secret or prgprietary medicines or lotions not knowing their compound; but on investigating I was convinced of its harmlessness and em ployed it in some dozen or more cases with perfect satisfaction. A strange thing occurred during my observa tions, viz.; A member of my own family was suddenly afflicted with general eczema. I used EX-ZEMA FO freely with the satisfaction of procuring both prompt and lasting re lief. My sense of medical ethics would prevent me in tendering you this testimonial, but my feeling of gratefulness in having obtained both the product and necessary informa tion from you, may perhaps .justify tny sending you this communication. You are entitled to this.” So confi dent are we that EX-ZEMA-FO will relieve any case of eczema or other *kin trouble that we«agree to refund the purchase price if resuPs are not satisfactory. r,O cents and SI.OO.

He commented very favorably upon the work of \V. F. Brown, county en gineer. , ‘•The greatest essentials for success ful road building and upkeep," said Mr. James, "are experience and familiar ity with the locality and its road bed materials. Mr. Brown has both and his work is therefore very satisfac tory. “This is absolutely the first effort that ever has been made to correlate road work between counties," he con tinued. "The idea in developing the roads in every county is simply that they shall be a part of a through high way." Mr. Solomon, together with other leaders of the local good roads move ment, immediately will take up the question of federal supervision with the counties whose roads are not yet as well developed as they might be.
