A VIGOROUS BATTLE.

From the New Era, Greensburg. Ind.
The following is straightforward state
ment of facts by. a veteran of the late war.
No comrade will need further proof than
their friends own words, as here given.
Squire John Castor, of Viewpoint, Ind. is
the narrator, and an honest, respected cit
izen he is, too. He said: 81 have been troub-
led with rheumatism in all my joints, ever
since went to the war. 1t was brought on
by my exposure there. It came on me grad
ually, and kept getting worse until 1 was
unable to do any work. I tried several
physicians, but they did me no good. They
said my trouble was rheumatism resulting
in disease of the heart, and that there was
no cure for it. Nevertheless l had lived and
fought the disease for thirty years, and did
not intend to die, simply because they said

arises from impoverished, or bad blood.

Il Is not a common occurrence that a
friendly word should be the means of Civ
ing nearly forty years of happiness and
health to the person needing the advice 1t
carried. This was the case with Mary
L4ingard. AT twenty-five she was dragging
out her days in misery. At sixty-one she
finds herself so active and strong she can
do work that would shame many younger
woman, and looks back on thirty-six
happy, heaithfuI years of industry. But
let her tell her story:
''Thirty-six years ago I had great trouble
with my liver. The doctors allowed that
there were tumors growing on it, and they
b1istered my side in an effort to give me
relief I was at that time earning my
living as tailoresS, but for Ave years,
between the pain in my side and the
blisters I was in constant misery, and
work was drag to me, with no prospect
of relief; fortunately for me, however, a
friend advised me to take DR.. Ayers Sar
saparilla, and finally persuaded me to take
a regular course of 1t. When / first com

was SO painful that could not fasten my

relief, but my friend advised me to per-

come it did. This happened, as say,
thirty-Six years ago. My liver has never
troubled me since, and during these years

The Man Who Hadn't Time.

He never had time to play,
He never had time to rest,
But he worked away and thought OF da
When what he had done would attest
The usefulness of his life,
His worth as a man among men;
Their he would quit the strife
He would rest on his laurels then
As "a bondman chained he slaved,
Ever locking ahead;
As q miser he boarded and saved,
Grudgirg his daily bread!
Beyond was a happy day
Nearer and nearer it drew.
When his work should be put away
And care should be banished, tool
At last, upon a day.
When the sun was low In the west,
He put his work away,
And sat him down to rest
But where was the dreamed of bliss?
AND why was it now denied?
Things seemed to be going am;Ss-
So he brooded awhile and died.

A little picture haunts me;
1t comes and comes again;
1t is a tiny birds nest,
All ragged from the rain.
It clings within a birch tree
Upon the moorland's edge,
Between the barren branches,
Above the swaying sedge.
The sky is gray behind 1t.
And when the north winds blows
The birch tree bends and shiverss
And tosses to and fro.
I wonder. does 1t haunt them,
The birds that few away?
And will they come to seek i:
Some sunny summer day?
/ wonder, does some reGbreast
Upon an orange bough

AS I can view 1t now?

state will be divided into districts, Co
extensive with the political divisions
set apart for the election of state as
semblymen. Each of these districts
will be in charge of Il captain, who will
see to it that his lieutenants obtain the
signatures of every citizen who is inter
ested in road improvement. 1t is pro-
posed to have each assembIyman head
the list in his respective district, so that
the Legislature will simply be petition
ing itself.
Every wheelman and wheelwoman
who signs the petition agrees to give
one dollar for road building as soon as
the state has made the appropriation.
When the monstrous petition is COM
pleted, it is proposed to have 1000
wheelmen visit the state capital and
present the document to the legislature
in support of good roads bill. OF
course the local centurions in all the
towns will lead their respective dele
cations to the capital. AS an aid to the
enterprise, State Centurion Marshall
has caused to be made n sketch of the
state in outline, with the proposed road
ways running through it. A cut of the
design is published herewith, and it
will be used on the backs of envelopes
by all enthusiastic cyclists and their
business friends. Speaking of the pro-
ject, State Centurion Marshall said:
Members of the Wisconsin division
have long realized that only by active
work could anything be accomplished
in the way of road improvements. In
such an enterprise we are dealing with
politicians and the only way to treat
with a politician is to allow him to
make no promises. Performance is the
thing, and we propose to make the pol
iticians perform. All the talk in the
world would not build a mile of road.
What you need is sand. and perhaps
gravel, not to disdain a few rocks tC
help out the plan.
81 have realized all along what
great task this is, but think it can be
accomplished. Our petition cannot be
ignored by the legislature, when it is
signed by all the members before it is
presented. 1t takes a nervy politician
10 deny his own signature. We who
ride only on the highways are compe-
tent to Judge of what is needed. We
propose to give dollar for dollar with
the state, and shame the common
wealth into an act of civilized progress.
The design l have made is for use on the
backs of envelopes, and we want all the
members of the Legislature to begin us
ing these designs, even if we have to
present them with their stationery. We
do not expect to do much talking about
this matter, except where it will pro-
mote the project. What we need more
than anything else is a little action
