And such a digester requires the liquid form.
So Kodol is liquid, like the digestive. juices. For
this reason its action is instant. Its effect even
begins in the mouth, by starting the flow OF saliva
Kodol. digests all food completely. This fact Is
easily proved. And you can prove, just as easily,
that other means fail to do that. They AFFECT
only part of the food.
Don't look for a cure for dyspepsia. There II
none. Nature must do the curing.
Treat the weak stomach as you would a lame
ankle. Relieve it and let 1t rest.
Not by dieting, for that means partial starva-
ton. You need all the food elements, all the
nourishment you can get. Eat what you need OF
the food that you want, and let Kodol digest it.
You won't need long unless the trouble
Is chronic. For most weak stomachs recover very
quickly with rest.
Our Guarantee
We ask you to prove, at our risk, that the facts
are as we state them. Buy a large bottle of
Kodol, and ask your druggist for the signed guar
antee. II you are not satisfied, take the empty
bottle back with the warrant, and your druggist
will return your money. There will be no bubble
or question.
This offer applies to the large bottles only, and
to but one in a family. That is sufficient to prove.
Then please tell others how much Kodol does.
Kodol is prepared at the laboratories. of e. G.
Dewitt & Co. Chicago. The 500 bottle contains
2h times as much as the Soc bottle.

OUTLOOK IN KENTUCKY.
Possibility of a Big Era of Road
Building.

Possibility of a Big Era of Road
Building.
With the passage of the Bosworth-
Wyatt bill at the last session of the
legislature the proposition of good
roads becomes a possibility in Ken
lucky. No state of the pretensions of
this common wealth in all the Union
has such inaccessible roads, and in
some cases a veritable canal of mud
binds two important little hill or noun
tain towns together. To get from
Middlesboro to Harlan, in adjoining
counties. one has to take railroad
train through Virginia and then scram-
BILE on horseback over the most pre-
cipitous road in the south to the seat
of Harlan county.
The bill provides a constitutional
amendment to be voted on at the next
legislative election in 1909. 1t gives
each county power to assess per cent
of its total valuation for road repair
and building in distinction to the pres
ent law, which provides only per
cent. In the case of Shelby county,
which now has but $32,500 for its 500
miles Of highways and pixies, it would
thus have $65O,OOO, though for $780,
900 its roads could be we'll kept up.
The appropriation from Jefferson and
Kenton would be enormous.
Nothing is more serious to the
itinerant merchants or the immense
rural population of Kentucky than
roads. Any politician who, like Gov
ernor Wilson. travelled 10000 miles on
roads during campaign, knows that
the hardships to be undergone are
really tremendous. Often Wilson was
so sore from the jolting on some noun
tain cow path that he would, fall from
his horse and, lying down on a rock,
refuse to ride a step farther until his
aching back was at ease. Once in
coming down steep hillside in Letch-
er county, made uncomfortable even by
the sure footed horse because of its
disrepair and roughness, the animal
stumbled.
"Gosh," gasped Wilson, "there near
" went the whole - campaign"
Sheer below ran rock wall down to
a valley 500 feet.
Should the people ratify the Bos-
worth Wyatt bill there will begin an
era of road building such as the peo-
pie of Kentucky have never known be-
fore A state highway association
will be appointed and competent civil
engineers put in charge Of the work.

HOW TO HAVE GOOD ROADS,
Jersey Farmer Suggests a Scheme to
Avoid Making Ruts.

Jersey FARMER suggests oCHSh1S "
Avoid Making Ruts.
A farmer at Finderne, N. j., writes
as follows to the editor Of the New
York Evening Telegram:
/ would like to call the attention OF
road masters and automobiles to a
matter consideration of which on their
part would confer great benefit on
the driving public.
On some of the roads of Long Island
is posted a notice requesting persons
driving not to confne their vehicles to
a single part of the thoroughfare; thus
producing two ruts, constant wear on
which uses the roadway up in very
short order. Compliance with the post
ed request on the roads mentioned
keeps them smooth throughout their
entire length and breadth and delight
to motorists and all others using them.
Union avenue in this town (Finderne)
is q favorite with motorists, and If
the Long Island rule were posted and
obeyed it would be fine thoroughfare.
Instead it consists of two long ruts of
from one to six inches in depth, which
require constant attention and repair.
