OF some of the main travelled roads

vote its attention to their better
ment. Several Of the members of the

al attention to some OF the bad places
and make the necessary repairs with
out expense to the people at large. DR..

A Good
Roads Apostle
From Tuesdays Daily.

from luesudy Dhlly.
Among the most enthusiastic of the
visitors in town yesterday for the new
Santa Fe Trail meeting was c. r. Nc
Lain, of Canon City. Colo. Mr.. Nc
Lain is chairman of the Good Roads
association Of his town, and came all
the way to Emporia to boost the
movement for the highway across the
state. In Colorado good roads are a
necessity for travel; there is no such
thing as a bad road, II a trail is cut
through the mountains it is made
passable. Near Canon City is the Sky
Line drive, one of the prettiest seem
ic drives in America. This road lies
along a crest, 500 feet above the valley
where Canon City is situated. 1t is
a part OF the New Santa Fe Trail and
is used all the year around by mo-
torists. The road was built by con-
vict labor, that mode of construction
being constitutional in Colorado. AS
a gift from the Canon City Automo-
bile club to the Automobile club of
Emporia, Mr. McI-ain brought four
photographs OF the Sky Line drive.
These have been posted in the lobby
of the Mit-Way on the south way.
They are panoramic views and show
to good advantage the excellence and
beauty of the mountain road.-Empo-

The Twilight of Life.

The muscles of the STOMACH in old
age are not as strong or active as in
youth and in consequence old people
are very subject to constipation
and indigestion. Many seldom have a
bowel movement without artificial aid.
Many also, have unpleasant eructions
of gas from the stomach after eating.
All this can be avoided by the use of
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsln, which per-
manently regulates the bowels so that
passages come naturally, and SO streng-
thens the stomach that food is digested
without discomfort 1t is absolutely
guaranteed to do what is claimed, and
