Con noil, chief of tho bureau of highways Philadelphia Inquirer stntes. I Highway experts from scores of, American nnd European cities, as well as engineers representing practically) every stato in this country, hnvo studied tho progress made by Philadel phia in dealing with Tmo of tho great est 6f municipal problems, that of road construction nnd maintenance, and n Ha 47 )$t "' "'1 j Improved Road Near Philadelphia. Ihavo requested Infonnntlon regarding! ;the specifications used, the processes followed nnd other dnta pertaining to tho work as carried on in this city, Unler Council said. ; Within tho limits of tho city, motor ists, most critical or roati users, can I travel for more tnan lot) miles uy ui 'verse routes, without experiencing tho slightest dlfllculty because of poor roads or dusty ones, tho head of tho (highway bureau asserted. Visiting tourists, impressed by this fact, havo heralded tho reputation of Phlladcl jphla as the city of good roads through out tho country, he said. Tho improve mcnt, in many instances, has been 'made at comparatively little expense by means of Burfaco treatments, varied to meet tho demands of the occasion, ho pointed out GROWTH OF IMPROVED ROADS Inventions, Discoveries and Public Im provements Como When There Is Strong Demand. Tho history of good roads affords a striking exnmple of tho fact that in ventions, discoveries and public im provements tnko place only when there is nn insistent demand for them. In early times, when each family lived largely to Itself, there was little com merce In tho articles produced on tho farm nnd consequently little need for transportation. As large cities devel oped tho demand for roads on which products might bo easily transported grew. Two of tho most recent causes for ,the Improvement of roads have been pleasure vehicles. Twenty-flvo yenrs ngo the bicycle began to como Into common uso and tho cyclists made a vigorous demnnd for roads on which ithey might ride. Unfortunately, how .ever, paths for bicycles were construct ed In mnny places in lieu of Improved roads. Tho invention of tho automo bile, however, has meant a real step toward better roads.

KIDNEY TROUBLE NOT EASILY RECOGNIZED Applicants for Insurance Often Rejected An examining physician for one of the prominent life insurance companies, in an Interview of tho subject, made tho as tonishing statement that ono reason why lo many applicants for insurance are re jected is because kidney troublo Is so com mon to the American people, and tho large piajority of thono whono applications ore declined do not even suspect that they have the disease. Judging from reports from druggists who nro constantly in direct touch with the public, there Is one preparation that has besn very successful in overcoming these conditions. Tho mild and healing Influence of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands tho highest for Its remarkable record of success. We find that Swarap-Itoot is strictly an herbal compound and we would ad vise our readers who feel in need of such a remedy to give it a trial. It is on sale at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes, medium and large. However, if you wish first to test this peat preparation send ten cents to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N.
