year l suffered with misery in the back,
dull headache, pain in the limbs, was
somewhat constipated and slept poorly

BETTER THAN SPANKING

Spanking does not care children of
bed-wetting. There is a constitutional
cause for this trouble. Mrs. NJ. Sum-
mers, Box w, Notre Dame, Ind, will
send free to any mother her success
ful home treatment, with full instruc-
tions. Send no money, but write her
to-day if your children trouble you in
this way. Don't blame the child, the
chances are it can't help it. This
treatment also cures adults and aged
people troubled with urine difficulties
by day or nightS-Adv.

Cut Your Store Bill
Down One Half

Tens of thousands of farmers as well as
town and city folks cut down their store
bills one-half last year and saved money
in spite of generally short crops and re-
duced wages
Absolutely mi!Ions of dollars were
saved and countless families lived better
ti;an ever before in the face of the cotton
crisis and general business depression.
How were these burdensome store b7zs
cut down? By the real money-saving
power of good home gardens, rightly
planted and kept planted and tended
through the season.
Hastings 1916 Seed Catalogue tells how
to cut store bills down; tells about gar
den and farm seeds of kinds and a quail
ity that cannot be bought from your mer-
chant or druggist. It's full of garden and
farm information. It's free if you ask
for it. Write for it now. H. G. HASTINGS

s3oo,ooo,ooo LOSS IS SEEN
Two Million Miles of Unimproved
Highways in United States-Farm-
ers Blamed for Condition.

"There are 6,5OO,OOO farmers in the
United States, the most of whom raise
something for the market" says the
American Highway association.
"They have been described by DR.. T.
N. Carver, the Harvard university ex-
pert in economics who was engaged
last year by the department of agri-
culture to draw plans for the organi-
zation of a rural community, as tenn
peramentally an Independent, head
strong, individualistic class, and,
therefore, difficult to organize. That
they are difficult to organize Is evil
denced by the fact that there are
100000 miles of unimproved public
roads in the United States over which
they must haul their products to mar
ket at a loss Of approximately $780,
100000 every year, or about the total
assessed value of property, real and
personal, in South Carolina. That they
are independent of good roads to
their own great loss Is evidenced by
the enormous waste Of both money
and muscle in trying to do business
without good roads and their appar-
ent lack of interest in compelling their
representatives in legislatures and
congress to provide highways for their
service.
Good roads are equally necessary
to both the production and distribu-
ton of farm products They are pre-
requisite says Mr.. Houston, secre-
tary of agriculture, in his last annual
report, not only to economical produc-
tion and distribution, but to the pro-
motion of the broader life Of commu-
mites. The great need, obviously, is
for roads which will get products from
the farm to the nearest railway sta
tion, enabling the farmer to haul when
he cannot SOW or reap, and to haul at
a lower rate, to transport his children
to consolidated schools and to enjoy
comfortably his social enterprises.
There can be, indeed, no such thing as
community life without good roads. To
assure such life there must be ease OF
communication and transportation,
and, as Doctor Carver expressed it,
'as the characteristic evils Of urban
life grow out of congestion, so do the
characteristic evils Of rural life grow
out of isolation. Except for few rare
souls, isolation means stagnation.'
CAS- a rule, town schools are better
than country schools because the
means of transportation, or the streets
and roads, are better in the towns
than in the country. On the so-called
great highway between Washington
and Richmond there is stretch Of
about fifteen miles on which in the
fall and winter farm wagons and auto
mobiles sink to the hubs and traffic Is
practically impossible, and this high

MANY WIRELESS STATIONS
Germany Prepared for Emergencies
That Would Arise in the Day
OF Conflict.

Part of German preparedness for
"the Day" was the erection of world
wide system OF high-power wireless
stations. When the war started there
were in operation German wireless
stations in Europe, Africa, America
and the South seas. Many have been
dismantled by the allies, but the three
greatest still remain and serve to keep
Germany in communication with the
outside world, even though the cables
be cut.
The three greatest stations are at
Nauen, Germany; Sayville, L. l., and
somewhere" In Spain. The French
claim that there is a German wireless
station in every state in the Union.
Outside Of the Sayville station there
are known to be four high-power sta
tions in Mexico and ten in South
America, the latter having added ma
terially in the exploits of the German
sea raiders in both the Pacific and the
Atlantic.
The Spanish, Sayville and Nauen
stations are probably the most power
full in the world. They are each sup
posed to have a constant transmit.
ting power Of 5000 miles, OCCASIONALLY
raised to 1900 miles. The waves are
so powerful that they temporarily par
alyze other aerial communications.

Cheapest Commodities.

There are many opinions, but, next to
human life, opinions are the cheapest
commodities of these times. AS it now
stands, human life is the cheapest and
the least regarded thing in the world
not only human life as it exists, but
human life in the future. Both are
held in careless disregard. A rifle
has more value than the man who
shoots 1t. A high explosive she'll Ia
worth hamlet. A battery Of guns
is more treasured than a village.
"The most important man in the
world" said Russian cabinet min
lister to me, els the man who can make
or supply munitions of war."-Samuel

Post.
