To the Editor of the DEMOCRAT,
The writer took pleasure in reading
your "Good Roads editorial in last

he has frequently tried to work up in
terest or inaugurate a movement looking
to better methods of road building and
their proper maintenance in this county.
First in an address at the meeting of the
farmers institute held in your city last
March, and more recently IN an effort to
get a general conference of county COM
missioners and the chairmen of the
township boards of supervisors for the
full discussion of this subject prior to
the awarding of county money under the
same old nobody's business, matter Of
form, spend methods,
which have for so long a time been in
vogue. We are now spending in round
numbers sec, 1000 a year for roed work,
and when results are investigated and
seen in their true and fair impartial
light, it is found that the damages done
by spending that 100000 rather out
weights the benefits accruing to the gen
eral public. Therefore it is high time we
took measures to bring about p%ronounc-
ed reform in this department of public
business. We are spending entirely too
much, and it isn't because work is not
done that results are so unsatisfactory,
but because the methods followed are
so crude and unbusinesslike that they
are about as near right as the farmer
would be who undertakes to farm with
nothing except a pillow and a spade.

implements had been used. Now don't
be too hasty reader in saying this can't
be so since the most modern and ex-

you might use a high power traction

in mind that while you are just now
taking a deep interestin politics it really
doesn't make a particle of difference to
you or your family whether Tom, Dick
or Harry wins. But 1T does make a
great deal of difference to you and them
to what kind of road there is between
your place and town, or between the
town you live in and any other place you

Health is Worth Saving, and Some Lang
don People Know How to Save It.
Many Langdon people take their lives
in their hands by neglecting the kidneys
when they know these organs need help.
Sick kidneys are responsible for a vast
amount of suffering and i'll health, but
there Is no need to suffer nor to remain
in danger when all diseases and aches
and pains due to weak kidneys can be
quickly and permanently cured by the
use of Doan's Kidney Pills.
Mrs. Annie Kardler, living south of
Public School, Park River, N. Oak, says:
81 recommend Doan's Kidney Pills most
highly as they cured me of a severe
attack of kidney trouble. For a long
time l suffered from an aching across
the small of my back and pains through
my loins and limbs. l was so lame and
sore most of the time that | could not
bear to stoop owe or straighten up, for
at such times, sharp pains would pass
through my loins and cause me the most
intense suffering. 1 doctored a great
deal for this trouble but was unable to
find anything that would bring me
satisfactory relief. However, a few
months ago Doan's Kidney Pills were
brought to my attention and I procured
a box. [ began to improve from the
first, continued using them and in a
very short time every symptom of the
trouble disappeared. 1t gives me great
pleasure to give Doan's Kidney Pills my
endorsement"
