GOOD ROADS IN KENT.

THE Dover meeting in favor OF good roaas IL
i encouraging TO those who hope TO see 'ne
highways of Kent county improved. 1t seems 10
us that an excellent committee was appointed one
which will not favor plunging the county into
debt that il would be burdensome TO carry, odt
which will try TO solve the admittedly difficulty
problem OF securing good roads at minimum eN-
pense
The meeting was fortunate in hearing an ae-
dress by one Of the leading road experts OF the
Department OF Agriculture in Washington Mr.
Boykn and Mr.. Wesley Webb pointed out how inn
proved highways increase the value of property
and bring population.
One thing about the report as printed in The
Journal strikes us very favorsbly. Our report
said, "The meeting, it is firmly believed, accom-
pshed the purpose of taking permanent road
building out Of politics and placing it with body
of business men to present directly 10 the Legis-
lature."
Mr.. lanes II. Hughes declared that the scheme
to bond the county would mean an increase of ten
cents in taxes on the 500 of property valuation.
This is not a high increase, but il the affairs OF
Kent were managed as they should be- we do not
believe the increase would be so large There
ought to be way Of saving money by economical
county administration, the money saved to be ar-
piled 10 the road fund. If any road in Kent us inn
proved it should be the State road Don't make
patch work improvement like that in New Castle
County.

AGreat Engineers Prophecy
That May Come True
By "HoIland."

General Edward Wellman Serrell,
who died in 1906, was one Of the great
engineers of the United States. He
was associated with some of the most
important and difficult engineering un-
dertakings Of the time between the
early forties and twenty years after
the Civil War.
He was the engineer who completed
the Hoosac tunnel, a world-famous
tunneling feat. He was also the chief
engineer engaged in the construction
of the first Of the great bridges over
the Niagara river. He was one of the
engineers who surveyed for William
Aspinwall aud Trenor w. Park the
line for the Panama railroad. Further
more, General Serrell and the late
Alfred Vail were the two engineers
who assisted Professor Morse in the
construction Of the first telegraph
line between Baltimore and Washing

gained fame as the builder of the

EASTERN SHORE POPULATION.

HE census figures show the population Of
\ Maryland TO be i,294,450 as compared with
i,294,450 ten years ago and ,042,390 twenty years
ago. AS in other states the gain is made chiefly
in the cities and towns The northern eastern
shore counties show a loss Of population while the
southern counties show gain. This gain is due
to the growth of some of the larger towns in the
lower districts and TO the agricultural develop
ment that has taken place in those regions
The counties showing loss are; Cecil, 25,759,
1910; 24,662 1900; Kent i6,957 1910; 1896
1900; Queen Annes l6,839 1910; 1864 1900;

showing gain are: Caroline 1926, 1910;
1928, 1900; Dorchester 2S,669, 1910; 27962,

In Caroline county during the last decade there
has been much progress in agriculture. Many
farmers from other states have settled there with
a consequent increase in land values and general
prosperity.
The towns in the lower part of the Eastern
Shore have also shown considerable growth lust

Valuable Prescriptions That Have
Cured Thousands
Quick Cough and Cold Remedy


Don't wait TO cure a cold until you
have pneumonia, consumption or
many of the other dreadful results.
Check IL in time. This is one of the
best formulas known to the medical
profession: Two ounces Of Glycerine
and half an ounce Of Concentrated
Pine. Add these TO half pint OF good
whiskey and shake them we'll. Use IN
doses Of a teaspoonful to a tablespoon
ful ever four hours" Smaller doses
to children according 70 age. Any
druggist has these ingredients in
stock OF will quickly get them from
his wholesale house. Any one can
easily mix them: but be sure TO get
the real Concentrated Pine. IL comes
in half ounce Walls packed in air-tight
tin-top cases. This treatment often
cures the worst cold in a days time.
Knocks Rheumatism.
This is recognized by doctors to- be
one OF the most effective prescriptions
obtainable to promptly cure rheuma-
tism and back-ache. "One ounce OF
syrup of Sarsaparilla compound and
one ounce of Toris compound. Add
these to half pint OF good whiskey
Cor sherry wine IL it is preferred). .
Take a tablespoonful Of this mixture
before each meal and at bed time" ="
ANY druggist has these ingredients in
stock or will quickly get them from
his wholesale house. Any one can
easily mix them. The good effects
of this treatment are usually felt af-
ter the first few doses.
To Cure Indigestion.
A well known physician gives the
formula for a wonderful digestion
mixture, which quickly relieves dis
tress after eating. headaches, belching,
sour stomach, dizziness, ETC., and, IL
used for sufficient time, will COM
pletely cure the worst case of dys-
pepsia.
1.-TWO ounces essence OF Pepsin:
three ounces syrup of Ginger; one
ounce Catandir compound. These to
be mixed in a siX-ounce bottle, shaken
we'll and used in doses Of from one
to two teaspoonfuls after each meal
and at bedtime.
The Catandir is a comparatively
recent preparation and may not be
kept In stock by some of the smaller
druggists, but he can get it very
promptly from his wholesale house.

surely worth trying by any one with
stomach trouble. In hospital work it
has been very successful.

The following prescription is con-
tributed as being one Of the most re-
markable known for bringing back the
rosy tint Of youth to the skin:
Two ounces Rose Water; one ounce
Spirits OF Cologne Tor pure grain alco-
ho); four ounces Sartoin. Put the
SaTtoin into pint of hot water (not
boihng) and when dissolved and cool
ed add the Rose Water and Spirits OF
Cologne (or alcohol and strain

tie will serve as a receptacle if it can
be closed air-tight.
Any druggist has these ingredients
in stock or will get them I'm a few
hours from his wholesale house. They
are easily mixed at home. This pre-
paration should be applied once a day
after washing. II Is said the results
become apparent after the first few
applications but the treatment should
be continued until the rose tint com
pleSion becomes permanent.
