cine We Recommend

We are SO positive that our re-
medy will permanently relieve
constipation, no matter how
chronic it may be, that we offer
to furniS the medicine at our ex-
pence should it fail to produce
satisfactory results.
1t is worse than useless to at
tempt TO cure constipation with
cathartic drugs. Laxatives or
cathartics do much harm. They
cause a Reaction, irritate, and
weaken the bowels and tend TO
make constipation more chronic
Besides, their use becomes 4
habit that is dangerous.
Constipation is caused by a
weakness of the nerves and mus
cles of the large intestine of de-
seeming colon. To expect per
manent relief you must therefore
tone up and strengthen these Or
gans and restore them to health

A GOOD ROAD LAW.

The new road law of Tazewell, now
before the Legislature, will be a.
mended so as to put the appointment
of the road commissioners in each
district, in the hands OF the Court,
instead of leaving their selection to
the Supervisors entirely. These two
men in each district will supplant,
and do the work which was attempted
to be done by 81 men heretofore,
called overseers. as was noted in the
last issue of this paper.
One of the greatest hindrances to
road making generally is, rights of
way. There is not, perhaps, a road in
the county located just exactly where
the new macadam road should be loo
ated. Changes ale necessary, and
then trouble begins. Some men, like
Henry Bowen and Tom Smoot, say
eco ahead, right through my land. |
want no damages. We will be more
than repaid by the good roads /"
Others say, "You shall not. " If you
touch a foot of their land, however
worthless it may be, they refuse alto
gether, or ask eXorbitant damages.
Then come trials. re-trials, appea Is
ad lnfnitum. The new law permits
the supervisors and road people to go
ahead and condemn land for such a.
mounts as they see fit, deposit the
money with the Court, and build the
roads while the case is being tried.
After trial the amount of deposit
damages will be increased or balance
returned, as the case may be. There
are, on every piece of road gaps, small
parcels or parts of ground where
damages are claimed and court pro-
ceedings necessary. To walt for the
settlement of all these claims and
disputes before building roads would
hinder the work indefinitely. This
new law will not allow a bull-headed.
stubborn, selfish citizen to stand in
the way. The road is built and dam
ages and all other questions in dis
pute setteld in the meantime or later.
The law, all through, as we see it, is
good one. The salaries of The ex-
ira road commissioner will be more
than paid by cutting off the 81 over
seers, who spent money and did but
little work.

GIVE THE MILK COW CREDIT

A good milk COW, like Tazewell
blue grass, is worth all you have to
pay for her. She does four things
makes butter fat, milk to feed the
pigs and the children, raises calves
and makes manure to enrich the land
to grow more grass, to make more
milk, butter and manure, and finally
her hide is useful for shoes for the
family. The COW should be better
treated and given credit for what she
does and produces. The manure flom
her stall is by-product, so to speak,
which is overlooked frequently in
making up her record. A WELT fed
milk cow will produce, in years
time, about 90 tons of manure-about
40 good two horse loads. costing here
$3.50 per load delivered and scatter
cd which amounts to $50. So, it is
apparent. that the manure from the
COW is worth about as much as her
milk. This should be taken into ac-
count when the cow question is dis
cussed and considered. AS to the
value of this manure to the land much
depends upon how it is cared for. If
thrown out in the weather, and allow
ed to take all the rains that fall. it is
materially injured. If the COW has
good concrete or plank floor, and the
manure is spread as soon as made il
Will be of the greatest value to the
land. The manner IN which some
COWS are treated in this town and
community is shame, and explains
why they are considered no good.

Roosevelt To Taft

Here are some of the good thing.
Mr.. Roosevelt has said at different
times since 1906, about Mr.. Taft:
! my belief is that of all the mel
that have appeared so far, you are the
man who is most likely to receive the
Republican nomination and who is,
think, the best man to receive it,"
June 10, 1908, "I do not believe

pathies with all our citizens.
He would be as emphatically 8
President of the plain people as Lin.
coin, yet not Lincoln himself would
be freer from the least faint of dema-
gogy, the least tendency to arouse,
to appeal to class hatred of any kind.
Sept. 8, 1908, Gin MIR. Taft we

these qualities to a degree which no
other man in our public life since the
civil war has surpassed.

public interest to elect Mr.. Taft and

Sept. 21, 1908, ellis attitude on
this question, as we'll as on countless
other questions, convinced me that of
all the men in this Union he was the
man prominently fit in point of up

and aggressive honesty and of fitness
for championing the rights of tie

We heartily agree with the Green
Vile man about changing the name
Of the county to Bounty Land. The
pame is suggestive of abundance.
1t is true that Richland has a SINH
lar significance. but land may be-
ever so rich and yet may not yield
bountifully, owing to improper till
age. Besides all this, the State al
ready has a Richland county, and we
are not sure but that It's area is
some larger than the area Of Oconee.
Then 1t would naturally follow that
the two counties would be designat-
ed 'Big Richland" and Little Rich
land" Wouldn't that be a pretty
comc-offs for Richland, after all her
proud boasting about corn prizes,
eloquent orators, etc., to be dubbed
Little Richland"? Mr.. Editor, let's
don't let them change 1t, or If they
do, let's have it changed to Bounty
Land. One Richland is enough for
one State; and besides 1t would be
unfair to merge the whole county into
lnslGntficance on account of the
thoughtlessness of mere few, how
ever great their achievements.
