Baxter Springs news., 1915-03-25

The above from the commits
sioner of the Third district
needs no comment from US. We
hope it is all true, but if the bal
ance of the so-called county
roads have been as badly neg
Iected as has the Chetopa road,
then they are not in as good con-
iition as the letter indicates. 1t
may be that the Chetopa road
has not received its share of
treatment, and that the balance
of the county roads are in good
condition, but if this is true,
then the Chetopa road has been
neglected.
True, the Chetopa road was
dragged last week, but it is
equally true that the road has
been in horrible condition for
many weeks. People living on
the Chetopa road have gone miles
out of their way to get to Baxter.
If the people in other parts of
the county, living along so-called
county roads, have good roads,
we are glad of it, and cougratu-
late them, but people on the
Chetopa road have been COM
PEELED to hole up or travel on
other roads to get anywhere.
AS to the road machine-there
have been persistent rumors that
it is no good; that it can not be
used on roads like the Chetopa
road; that it was used on a road
where a lot of hedge roots and
stumps almost ruined it, spring
ing it so badly that it can not be
used to any advantage. If this
is not true, we are glad, of course,
but the bare fact remains that
the trip it made on the Chetopa
road did no good at all.
We understand the big jumbo
Jonah machine cost $500. If
this is true it is too much for
such a machine. The machine,
80 we have been told, can not be
taken across any bridge in the
county, so if the authorities
wanted to use it on the Chetopa
-oad the machine could not cross
either Tar creek or Four Mile
;reek bridges. And for $500
he commissioners could have
bought one hundred four-wheel
irags, the kind that are used in
communities where money is
wisely expended. A day of vail
ng and gnashiug of teeth is
;omiug, and it is not far of, We
Delieve..
At any rate, we note in one
# our county exchanges that the
ounty has purchased a road
-rader, which will be used. The

A lot of boosters have gotten
busy and are making the road
south from this city to the state
line a good one.
All kinds of weather every day
last week. But it was no doubt
for the best. If we must have
cold weather, let's have it now,
and not after awhile, when the
fruit might be endangered.
Mrs. Louisa Ohlen returned
Sunday night from Stroud, Okla,
where she has been for several
months visiting her son and
daughter who are in the govern
ment service at the Sac and Fox
agency.
The Chetopa road was dragged
last week. Alva Chubb did the
dragging from the Hilemau
corner to the city limits, and
John Cool dragged through Lyon
township. We understand the
work improved the road a great
deal.
Miss Allie Parsons of Miami
was awarded a verdict of 81, 900

parties used to live in this city.

Why Do French Women
Always Look Young &?

In France mothers and daughters look
like sisters. HOW are the women there
able to retain their youthful looks until
long past middle age? Is 1t because
they are much given to the use of
mercolized wax? This wax possesses
a remarkable absorbent property which
quickly removes the fine particles of
cuticle which are constantly dying and
which are the immediate cause OF an
old-looking complexion. Thus the live
lier. healthier, younger skin beneath is
given chance to breaths and show
itself. Try this treatment yourself.
Most likely 1t will not require two
weeks to make your complexion as
clear, soft and beautiful as a young
girls. Just one ounce of mercoliZed
wax (all American druggists have iD
usually does the work. The wax Is put
on nights like cold cream and washed
on mornings.
Another valuable secret with which
the French are familiar Is how to
quickly remove wrinkles. One ounce
OF powdered saXolite dissolved In q
half pint witch hazel. makes a mar
vellously effective astTingent lotion.
