(By R E. GT.DS.) Good roads are conducive to better schools, live rural churches, pleasant rides, good markets, social advance ment, a closer bond of sympathy and co-operation between the farmer and his city cousin who works at the forge, the iathe or the spindle. It spells prosperity and happiness to every com munity which has the means and business fore-sight to see the manifold blessings which a scientific system o' good roads secures for its people. Mud roads spell au enormous mud tax be side which our tariff is like a pygmy to an elephant. Again, good roads annihilate dis tances and rob farming of the dread and drudgery of rural seclusion, this fact being notably apparent where a farmer is the wise and happy owner of a high-quality, dependable and eco nomical motor car. Mud roads bring social life on the farm to low ebb. empty the rural churches, make many little red school houses but a mem ory and populate the country with floating tenants who care very little for the growth and perpetuation of the institutions which are the bulwark of our national greatness. Then good roans save time, save horses and wagons automobiles and gasoline. They enable the farmer to market, at minimum cost, in rain or shine, his perishable produce such as fruits, vegetables milk, butter, eggs and meat. Mud reads compel the farmer to leave such produce either go to waste or deterioration. or what is near to either, deter him from pro ducing any of these prcSt-bearing com modities because he has so dependable and convenient avenue for marketing them. in cases of acute illness good roads enable the physician to bring speedy relief to the sick a22'.tally and save the lives of hundreds of our men. wom en and cfc*iren. a fact which more than trebly com pac sates any amount of money which we may spend as a nation, seme, county, city or :cwn. Good reads spell humanity, relief, mer cy. life, growth and prosperity, where as rued roods too often spell poverty weakness, decay, sickness, suffering and death. As road improvement .s of rxiior wide interest it should be supported by cur rational, state and county gov ernments. This is notably true with interstate highways for :: :s manifes: !y -unjust to tax all the improvement to the abniting land, to the county or even to the state.

Apropos of the ravages that time has made iu the faces and forms of the veterans of the Civil war, Walter S. Morton, president general of the Union society, said at a dinner ia New York: “A veteran, talking to his great grandson, a little lad of eight or nine years, remarked: “ ‘Nearly a generation and a half ago my head was grazed by a bullet at the battle of Chickamauga.' “The little boy looked at the old man’s head thoughtfully and said “ ‘There isn't much grazing there now. is there, sir?’” RASH ON FACE FOR 2 YEARS Sioux Falls, S. D—“My trouble of skin disease started merely as a rash on my face and neck, but it grew and kept getting worse until large scabs would form, fester and break. This was just on the one side of my :'ace but it soon scattered to the other side. I suffered a great deal. espe. ia! 1 ly at night, on account of Us itching and burning. I would scratch it and of course that irritated it very murk This rash was on my face for about two years, sometimes breaking out lots worse and forming larger sores It kept me from sleeping day or night for a couple of months. My fare look ed disgraceful and I was almost ashamed to be seen by my friends. “A friend asked me to try Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment. I would bathe my face with hot water and a lot of Cuticura Soap, then I would put on the Cuticura Ointment In less than two days' time, the soreness and inflammation had almost eclr^iy dis appeared, and in four weeks' time you could not see any of the rash. Now my face is without a spot of any kind I also use them for my scalp and ha:r They cured me completely " <Signed) Miss Pansy HutcCias.
