 justice was done many persons whose
 interest in the roads was less than that
 of others who bore no expense. To re-
 move this injustice and provide an equa-
 ble system is the purpose of the state aid.
 Speaking on this subject recently, Gen. Stone said that the farmers of
 Maine own one-fifth of the property of
 the state, and that one-fifth of the prop erty has paid the entire expense of building and maintaining the roads of the state, which are just as necessary to the people who live in towns, and the
 people of other occupations than farm
 ing, as they are to the farmer. Concern ing New York, he said that there the farmers own only one-fourteenth of the property of the state, and that every farmer has been making roads for 13 other men to travel on, and he is getting tired of doing it. He is now about to stop it, and he finds the people Of the cities and large towns, the manufactur- HE peOpic anu tuc Sohi ihCiSiai pCoplC,
 ready to bear their share of the ex-
 pense of improving the country roads. The only drawback is that the farmers themselves have been afraid to let any change be made in the road laws of the
 country. for they imagined that the people of the cities design to impose heavier burdens on them, instead of
 being ready to help them carry exist ing ones.
 By degrees all classes of the people will begin to better understand each other on the subject and will get closer together. It was not strange, at first,
 that country people should be supicious
 of city people who took the trouble to tell them how much they would be
 benefited by better roads--it was natu-
 ral for them to think that such philan-
 thropy was not wholly disinterested.
 But as it becomes daily more evident
 that all classes, trades and occupa-
 tions will reap the advantages resulting
 from improving the highways, that the
 ultimate burden will not be increased and that all are ready to share it, the
 movement will acquire an impetus that
 will insure its future success.-Good
 Roads.

A GREAT REMEDY.
 Greatly Tested. Greatly Recommended.

The loss of the hair Is one of the most Serious losses woman can undergo Beautiful hair gives many a woman q claim to beauty which would be utterly wanting if the locks were short and scanty. It Is almost as serious loss when the natural hue of the hair begins to fade and the shining tresses of chestnut and auburn are changed to gray or to faded shadow of their former brightness. Such . loss is no longer a necessity. There is one remedy which may we'll be called c great remedy by reason of its great sue. cess in stopping the falling of the hair, cleansing the scalp of dandruff, and re storing the lost color to gray or faded tresses. pr. Ayers Hair vigor Is a stand ard and reliable preparation. in use in thousands of homes. and recommended by everyone who has tested IL and expert enced the remarkable results that follow its use. It makes hair grow. It restores the original color to hair that has turned gray or faded out. It stops hair from fall. ing, cleanses the scalp of dandrud and gives the hair a thickness and gloss that no other preparation can produce.

Mrs, Hermann, of sss East ssth St.. New York City, writes:
 "A little more than a year ago, my hair began turning gray and falling out, and although | tried ever so many things to prevent a continuance of these conditions. obtained no satisfaction until tried pr. Ayers Hair vigor. After using one bottle my. hair was restored to its natural color, and ceased falling out."-Mrs. HKRzMANN. 3s6 East 6sth St.. New York City.
 'I have sold pr. Ayers Hair vigor for fifteen years, and do not know of a case where 1t did not give entire satisfaction. [ have been, and am now using 1t myself for dandruff and gray hair and am thoroughly convinced that 1t Is the best on the market. Nothing that I ever tried can touch it. It affords me great pleaswre to recommend it to the pubiic."r-FRANK M. CRovK, Fauns- dale, Ala.

UNIFORMS OF ALL TIMES.

Valerius MaXimus, the Roman em-
peror, ordered the Roman soldiers to
wear red so they would not be fright
ened at the sight of their own blood,
and even now red forms a conspicuous
part of French and English uniforms,
In our own army red is not used ex-
cept for facings, on the ground that
it attracts attention in the field,
though experiments in Germany prove
that blue target is hit three times
where a red one is hit once.
During the revolutionary war each
colony had its militia, and the uniforms
CT each body were different. Later
the higher officers came to be known
by the colored ribbons worn across
their breasts, and the lower officers
by the cockade worn in their hats.
In 1921 dark blue was declared to be
the national uniform color for both
officers and enlisted men, the only ex-
ception being scarlet coats for mu-
sicians and gray coats for cadets.
|arious changes took place in the
shape Of the clothing of the soldiers
until 1863, when our uniforms became
practically fixed, the cloth for the
trousers being light blue and the fac
ings being light blue for infantry, yell
low for cavalry and red for artillery.
