Uncle Sam will be Insis,snt

The postal department has issued
orders to the postmasters throughout
the country to inform themselves as to
the condition of the roads where the
rural carriers must travel. The object
is to gain information as to whether
the roads are in proper condition, es-
pecially according to the natural ply
steal condition and the ability of the
community to maintain such roads.
Where the roads are not what they can
be made under the above conditions the
department will take steps to withdraw
the mail service until the roads are put
in proper condition by the people. The
good roads movement has come to stay
and the time is near when this country
will be known as road building nation.

viously voted, by close vote, in favor

tits arose that before carrying it into
effect the directors agreed to submit
the matter to the vote of the members.
The final vote was about to in favor

Mr.. Neal NJ. Nelson, 1903 Lincoln
Ave-, Alameda, CAL, writes:
''As / was great sufferer with
chronic catarrh in my stomach, and
lameness in my back and limbs, / am
pleased TO say that after using four bot
ties of pcrGna feel perfectly well, and
will never lie without it in my home.

their health.
''After all other doctors have failed,
have been cured through Peruna, and
next to God owe my thanks to Dr..
Hartman for being cured"
Indigestion Causes Rheumatism.
What connection is there between
stomach eatarrh and lameness?
There is a vital connection. Catarrh
of the stomach deranges digestion.
Deranged digestion leads to the forma-
ton of acids in the stomach and bowels.
These acid formations are absorbed into
the blood and produce rheumatic coz
dition.
Peruna relieves, tho rheumatism only
by relieving the indigestion, and thus
cleansing the source of the blood inn
purities that lead up to lamcness in the
joints, neuralgia and rheumatism.
Mr.. Frank Richter, 300 East 2nd ST.,

ROUND AND ABOUT US

Thirty cents for a court house, "
sounds a tr life insignificant, but it tells
the simple story of recent sale of the
Monroe county court house at Sparta.
1t seems that the property was sold at
tax sale for an unpaid weed tax of
thirty cents, levied by the city of
Sparta. The county refused to pay the
tax on the ground that i was not
liable. The property was bid in by the
city attorney for the amount of the tax,
and the certificate will be held until the
county makes provisions for redeeming.
