Bodily Housekeeping
(BY V. NJ. PIERCE, NJ. D.)

The subject of drinking water with meals has been misunderstood.
 In recent years investigation by means of X.rays, the observations of scientists such as Cannon. Grutzner. Pavloy. Fowler, Hawk. prove that an abundance of water taken during di- gestion Is necessary in good bodily housekeeping.
 If your kidneys are sick, or you suf- fer with lumbago er rheumatism at times. pain in the back or back of the neck, take little Anuric before meals This eaH he found at any good drug store. Therefore my advice to young or old Is. always drink plenty of pure water. And for long life. occasionally take tablets of Anuric three or four times n hay.
 Anurif acts much more quickly than llthia, sfany find it dissolyes uric acid as water does sugar.

Road Money Tied Vp.

Although several counties may be without road tax funds for neNt year there Is no probability that special session of the Legislature Will be called, although such a course has been advocated by J. NJ. Garter ot TeXarkaua, according to state otit- cials W E. Owen, chairman of the State Highway Commission said he would not favor a special session of the Legislature. Judge Carter has written to Governor Hays, suggesting d special session. The situation in Miller county and probably m several other counties resulted because of the changes in the time of holding the state election from September to No- vember without making any change in the meeting of county levylng courts The courts are required to meet in October 10 make approprla- tons. The counties. however did not vote on the three mill road tax levy until November :. The Miller County Quorum Court, and several others, state officials believe, refused to make the road levy until it was voted upon. It is probable. MT. Owen said, that the next Legislature will be asked 10 change the present law governing quorum courts to make the two dates coincide and that the Legislature prob ably will be asked also to offer some speedy relief for counties which voted the road tax in the election but in which the quorum court did not ap- propriate

MONEY FOR IMPROVED ROADS
Big Taxpayer Is the Man Who Foots the Bill for Every Improvement
 of Public Nature.

More than $ls,ooo00 was paid in fees for the registration of motor. driven vehicles in the United States last year. Ninety per cent of this was spent in the maintenance of old roads ard the building of new roads.
 Additionally the motorists paid by far the larger proportion of all taxes which were levied for good roads pur- poses.
