CURE YOUR SC|AT|CA
1t Is a Form Of Neuralgia and Ha.
Frequently Been Cured by
the Tonic Treatment.

Sciatica Is neuralgia Of the sciatio
nerve. Its origin Is generally rheumatic
and is tho direct result Of taking cold.
For this reason tho disease Is commonly
known as "sciatic rheumatism"
Lack Of blood Is almost always associ.
ated with neuralgia. One medical
authority has defined neuralgia as "the
cry OF the nerves for better blood. ="
This is true because the nerves receive
their nourishmcnt through the blood.
Build up tho blood, the impoverished
nerves are fed and tho neuralgia pains
disappear.
Absolute rest is the best aid to proper
medical treatment. Rest and DR.. Viii.
liams Pink Pills will cure most cases.
After years of suffering. Mr.. Fred G.
Lowe, of North Paris, Me-, was cured
OF sciatica by this remedy. Mr.. Lowe
Is a veteran Of tho Civil war and was
member of Co. D, l4th Maine Infantry.
ne says:
about thirty years ago I began to
have sciatica and think it must have been
caused by exposure. My hips, legs and
back were affected and often the pain
was no intense that would drop to the
ground. The pains were sharp a.
though a knife was QUITTING me. MY
left leg and foot were swollen to double
their natural size. Iwould Be helpless
for three or four weeks at . time and
was obliged to use crutches for six
months. There were sharp, jabbing
pains around my heart. I could not
sleep and lost in weight and strength.
II suffered intensely for about twenty
wears. was under medical treatment
most of the time but received scarcely
any benefit. Through reading the
papers learned Of DR.. Williams Pink
Pills and gave them trial. They gave
me relief in short time and I took
them until cured"
Sciatica is stubborn in resisting treat
ment and tho patient frequently suffers
for years. DR.. Williams Pink Pills do
not simply relieve pain bat they cure
diseases caused by depraved or vitiatcd
blood They actually make new blood

WHAT OUR NEIGHBORS SAY
Excellent Suggestions Regarding the
Good Roads Project.

(From the Northfeld News)
1t seems to be generally conceded that
nothing would be of more real benefit
to the progress Of Vermont at this time
than a few hundred miles OF permanent
highways.
We have a good many miles Of i'm
proved roads In the State already, but
they are scattered from Canaan to YER
mona strip here and there a good
thing as far as they go. but they are Of
little value compared to what they would
be II all the money spent In permanent
roads had been put into ono or two strips.
The News doubts II It would be pra =
teal or possibly wise just now TO mort
gage tho State to build permanent high
ways. The value OF good roads. how
ever, is coming to be more generally
recognized and It would seem that the
time ~ about ripe for a movement
towards better results.
If the next Legislature could be in
duced to take the necessary steps to lay
ont trunk lines OF road on the east and
west sides of the State II would be a
start In the right direction. II the pro-
posed lines paralellcd the railways for
the most part they would go through
the larger towns Of THO State and accom-
MEDIATE the greater number Of people.
n line run from Vernon to Newport
and was ,ntersecteh at Hartford with a
line to Montpelier and Burlington ami
thence down tho west side OF the State
to Remington the the most populous
| towns Of Vermont would be touched.
Then If the permanent road fund as an
experiment could all he put into one strip
81 road for n couple Of years. compelling
| the towns through which 1t passed &c
bear a liberal share Of the expense as
compared with other towns. It would be
an object lesson worth while.
Road building in one piece under d.
| rect State supervision would mean IN
| =, eased mileage for the same amount oil
! money. In two years' building 30 10 3N
| miles OF road might be reasonably ex
peotcd. With such an object lesson he

Of the future would probably be a com
