FARMERS AND THE ROADS
Soon the rush of farm work will
be over, all of the county fairs will
have been attended, the children sent
away to school and the fall chores
will receive attention. Along on the
list will appear work on the roads.
The progressive farmer realizes that
it takes more than the spring work
to keep the roads in good condition.
He knows that a good road past his
place adds to the value of his prop
erty. Fifty years ago there was some
excuse for bad roads, for our country
was poor. Now it is rich, there is
no excuse. Good roads attract pop
ulation as we'll as good schools and
churches A larger lad can be drawn
by one horse over good road than
by two over a bad one. Good roads
encourage the greater exchange of
products and commodities between
communities, and causes more good
fellowship among people than all OF
the sermons in the world stacked up.

Baldheadcd Men
Ignorance OF the Hair Causes

EARLY piety doesn't cause badness,
neither does any kind of piety. Some
baldheaoed men console themselves
with the idea that badness is caused
by a su-perabundance of gray brain
matter. and would have the world be-
lieve that a bald head is a sign of great
intellect.
Such. however, is not the case. Nine
ty-nine times in n hundred, badness
is caused by dandruff germs, which dig
down deep into the roots of the hair,
destroy it's vitality and cause it to fall
out.
All this nay come gradually and take

would say, whats time to a dandruff

If you have dandruff, the little in

MANY WONDERFUL
CURES TOLD OF IN
SCHIRESONS ADS
A Woman Relative of Missing
Newark Doctor Signed One
of the Testimonials.

In support of the contention that DR..
Henry j. Sehireson, mysteriously miss
ing, in addition to owning the Peoples
Medical Institute, 80 Central avenue,
was also interested, if not one of the
owners. of the New Jersey Medical
Clinic. 10S-10S1a Newark avenue, Jersey
City, remarkable similarity in the word
ing of the advertisements of the W
institutions was pointed out today.
The captions of the advertisement of
the Peoples Medical Institute read like
this: Cancer and Tunior Successfully
Treated Without the Use of the Knife.
Many Wonderful Cures Effected by Use
of the Absorption Method The cap
tons of the advertisement of the New
Jersey Medical Clinic are identical.
Then in small type both advertise
ments are similar where they read:
This treatment is the result of scien-
tiic study and successful experiments;
it is based on the theoretical practise of
elimination brought to the highest
standard of perfection by the adoption
of the modern appliances"
Testimony from a Relative.
One particularly alluring testimonial Is
from Mrs. J. Gordon, AZ South Lexing-
ton avenue, White Plains. Mrs. Cor
don is a sister-in-law of DR.. Schireson.
Here is Mrs. Gordon's testimonials:

before. I thank them and request this
to be published so that all may know

That x-Rny Machine.
Another .alluring advertisement of the
Peoples Medical Dispensary went on to
say tina hundreds of men and women
are coming from all over the State to
be examined free of charge by the
largest X-ray machine made in Amer
lea, through which we can look
through the body and see the disease,

Further on the advertisement. says,

tors, as well as clerks and laboring
men are among our visitors, and their
statement that we have the finest, most

is unanimous. We have twenty differ
