Wh9n some time last Spring
the Mathews Board of Super
visors turned down the money
proffered by the state for building
roads. they INDICATED bv that &C.
ton that they were able TO take
care OF our county roads without
aid from anywhere. 1t may be
that they can DO so but the
present condition of our highways
does not justify SUCH an assertion.
Take for INSTANCE the main
road leading from Moon to Fit
chetts, 1t is naturally a fine
piece Of road and at present
TUESDAY, when not enough rain
has fallen for weeks to dampen,
much less cause it to be muddy.
one would think it would be per-
feet. Nay, not SO, for it has
been allowed to keen as a SOU
venlT OF past ages, a truly remark
able collection of holes which
were, cut by hauling in we
weather. I hese holes NAV be
entitled to protection from long
standing but they interfere con-
siderably with the comfort of the
travelling community. A few
days work here would save wear
on vehicles. and discomfort to the
persons OF citizens who deserve
some consideration. Why is it
not done?
Another case in point is the
road leading to New Point Post
Office and vicinity. Here the
thoroughfare was in a state of
muck last winter. during which
time great ruts and holes were
cut in the ground. That was
many months ago and vet those
holes remain to the sorrow of
those people who have to travel
that way. A few DAYS work here
would be productive Of much
good. AS matter of fact neither
IN winter or summer has this
road any right TO be in the condi-
ton it is.
And so throughout the county
we might select various thorough
fares that need attention and
should get it. Holes and ruts
abound where a little work would
insure ideal roads. Yet this is
one o. the seven counties in the
state ct Virginia that does not
need the state aid and who gen.

Who Work in Franklin

Most Franklin people work every
day in some strained, unnatural posi-.
tion--bending constantly over a desk
riding on jolting wagons or cars
doing laborious homework; lifting
reaching or pulling, or trying the back
in a hundred and one other ways.
All these strains tend to wear. weaken
and injure the kidneys until they fall
behind in their work of fltering the
poisons fl ON the blood. Doan's Kid
ney Pills relieve sick kidneys, put
new strength in bad backs. Franklin
cures prove it.
Willard Johnston. Main St., Frank
lin, La, says: 1.-THE prompt relief |
obtained from the use of Doan's Kid
neys Pills, procured at Frere's
Pharmacy, proved their great value.
l suffered from a dull pain in the
small of my back and 1 attributed it
to heavy lifting. The results that fol-
lowed the use of Doan's Kidney Pills
