REPORTS ON THE ROADS
OF SOUTHERN Jersey
Automobile Club of America Finds
Some of Them in Very Bad
Condition.
Scrapers Are at Work and They Are
Expected to Improve In
Near Future.

The bureau of tours of the Automo-
bile Club of America has been gather
ing information as to the condition o,
the roads in southern New Jersey. Par
ticular stress was laid upon the condi'
tiou of the roads in Monmouth county
which are reported to be in poor con-
dition, the worst in years. according tc
reports. Scrapers are actively at work
on most of the principal roads, how
ever. and with fair weather 1t is hoped
that conditions will be improved in the
near future.
The club car has recently covered
some of the roads leading to the Jersey
coast resorts and found the first poor
stretch between Railway and Metuchen'
which at that time was very muddy and
rutted. In order to avoid travelling
over this section a detour has been
recommended from Railway via Wood
bridge to the outskirts of Perth Am
boy, where Perth Amboy avenue is met
and should be followed to Metuchen.
At New Brunswick a late report ad-
vises taking the route via Dayton
Jamesburg and Englishtown TO Free
hold, in preference to the Old Bridge
Freneau route, which the club car COW
cred and found in poor condition
throughout. From Freehold quite good
roads can be followed to Lakewood and
Asbury Park.

What tho Doctor Knows
KIDNEYS MUST BE RIGHT TO
INSURE HEALTH.

Few people realize to what extent their
heath depends upon the condition Of the
iidneys.
The physician in nearly all cases Of
serious illness,- makes chemical analy-
sis Of the patients urine. He knows that
unless the kidneys are doing their work
properly, the other organs cannot readily
be brought back to health and strength.
When the kidneys are neglected or
abused in any way, serious results are
sure to follow. According to health sta
tistics, Bright's Disease. which is really
An advanced form of kidney trouble,
caused nearly ten thousand deaths in one
year, in the State of New York alone.
Therefore, it Is particularly necessary to
pay more attention to the health of these
important organs.
An ideal herbal compound that has had
remarkable success as a kidney remedy
is DR.. Klmer's Swamp Root, the great
kidney, liver and bladder remedy.
The mild and healing influence Of this
preparation, in most cases, Is soon real
lied, according to sworn statements and
verified testimony of those who have used
the remedy.
When your kidneys require attention,
get Swamp-Roo at once from any phar-
macy. It il sold by every druggist in
bottles of two sizes-5oc and 500.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to Dr.,
kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for .
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper. Adv.

WHEN THE AMATEURS APPEAR
Another Good story Added to the
Many That Are Told About Those

The anecdotes told at the expense

and of course of varying degrees. both
of truthfulness and Of drollery. An.
other is added to the list by some stu.
dents, who ambitiously undertook to
play Hamlet" for the benefit OF q
charity. The man who was to act the
part Of Horatio was extremely timid.
and when the night OF the perform
ance came he was SO overcome by
stage-fright that he could hardly re-
member the lines he had SO carefully
studied. During tho scene where Ho-
ratio and Marcellus tell Hamlet of
the appearance of the spirit Of his
father. and the prince asks: Stayed
It long?" while one w..h moderate
haste might tell a hundred" Horatio
managed to stumble out, but 30 con-

and instead Of rejoining Longer. long

prompter. with view to helping out

wings, Longer. longer" Unfortunate
ly Horatio. having lost all control OF
himself. was inspired with the idea
that the man playing Marcellus was
looking at him because he had made
an error. and that the words from the
wing were addressed to him. With .
