there will be place on each side for
the bicycle riders Of the state. If
the farmers can be shown how
much benefit the good roads will
be to them they will at once enter
into the movement with vim and
an energy that will be surprising.
After the good roads are built the
wear aud tear on the farmers vehi-
Giles and on his horses will not be
50 much. He will be better able
TO get to the market with his goods.
He will be able to carry more at Il
time and in that way he will get
more benefit from the roads than
any one else.
Of course the bicycle riders will
be benefited. They deserve it for
the able manner in which they
have enlisted in movement that
Will in the end benefit the entire
state. People dislike to live in a
place where there are bad roads
and when the good roads are built
in Georgia they will be one among
the many things that will induce
people to make this state their
home.
Good roads are as essential in a
certain sense as good railroads.
Both are a means of transportation
and one is as important as the other.
We will soon have better roads:
they are something that we need
badly and l see them in the neal
future. When we get these roads
we can put them down on the list
of tho many things that bicycles
have done. | look upon the bicycle
as one of the greatest inventions O.
the age, and | hope that it will con
tinue to be pleasure as well as
profit to mankind.

Good Roads Necessary.

Coy ernor Atkinson of Georgia, at
a recent meeting of the good roads
club of Atlanta, stated that he had
had little or no experience as q
wheelman and was not personally
fond of the wheel. But the moye-
ment which the bicycle riders nave
started he said deserves the hearty
cooperation of every citizen of the
county and of the state. If there is
one thing that this state needs it is
goods roads and the wheelman
should have all the praise and
honor OF being the first to lnaugu-
rate the moyment.

made this discovery. has for years past

lar use of some pure stimulant.
after middle life" he says, "the ener-
aies droop and nature requires stimulating
and assisting. For this reason old people
who wish TO be strong and well should
never let day pass without taking some
pure stimulant which can be depended
upon"
This IS an interesting fact, and it clear
ly shows that scientific men are correct
when they tell us that nothing compares
with a pure stlmulant for building up the
system. They also tell us that the safest
and best stimulant is pure malt whiskey,
because IL is not only a tonic, but food
for the nerves and tissues. There Is. in
fact. only one pure whiskey In existence,
entirely free from adulteration. IL Is
known as Duffy's pure malt whiskey. and
thousands OF aged men and women have
testified its remarkable strengthening et-
fects.
Elderly people. who suffer from stomach
ailments. or any form OF weakness, VIII
find great relief from taking Duny's pure
malt, II IS not an ordinary whskey but
a pare stimulant. which contains all the
properties that contribute to health and
none that can injure For this reason, in
purchasing from grocers or druggists, be-
ware of inferior limitations and insist on
getting exactly what you ask for.
