WORKING TIE Pixies.

Having purchased some seventy
miles Of public highways the county
will be face to be face with the prob
lem Of their maintenance and up
keep. This is adding nearly ten per
cent to the ptal mileage, of the coun.
TVS roads quite that much when other
pixies acquired and to be bought are
added. This will make approximately
1000 miles Of public highways to be
kept up with an ever increasing
traffic.
The county now has approximately
$4,000 Of road funds with which to
maintain its highways. That is
roughly $40 per mile. The wonder is
not what becomes of the money but
that the county is able to do what it
10 doing for that sum. Any one who
knows anything about roads knows
that $40 per mile does not go very
far. OF course there Is the free
labor but 1t is not very consider
able factor and never will be in road
Improvement. The county has, all
things considered, one of the best
road systems in the state.
But there is need for more money.
Especially is this true on the main
county site highways. All the pixies
recently acquired lead to Columbia.
The traffic upon them is large and as
the use or automobiles becomes more
ecmmon will be larger and harder.
The automobile has made the road
problem q greater one than ever. 1t
takes more money per mile to keep
up roads now than it ever did Auto
lists generally recognize this fact.
Only recently the State highway en-
gineer of New York declared that the
state should abandon the building of
macadam roads and in place of them
should construct concrete highways,
he stated that it cost $4,000 per
mile to construct the macadam roads
and $1,000 per mile to maintain them
and they were worn out in ten years.
Concrete roads would cost $4,000 per
mile and less to maintain. It was his
experience that the maoadam roads
wonld not stand automobile traffic.
Think Of roads costing $4,000 per mile
with $1,000 per year for maintenance,
tMaury countians, before you criticise
road ofiicials for not doing better on
indifferently constructed roads with a
maintenance fund of not more than
SIS per mile. This is about two and
a half per cent of that spent in New
York. It is true that the Empire
state traffic is great deal heavier,
hut It is not over the state over forty
times heavier than that Of Maury
county.
The county does not need boulevards
unless the people upon them want to
spend the money for their construc-
4tiou. II does need average good roads
that will not break down in the winter
and upon which large loads can be
hauled to market But even to dol
<fAis we must have more money. =

A Message To Thin
Weak Scrawny Folks
An Easy Way to Gain 10 to 80 Pounds
Of Solid heaIthv Permanent Flesh.

An Easy Way to Gain 10 to 80 Pounds
OF Solid, Healthy Permanent Flesh.
Thin, nervous, undeveloped men and
women everywhere are heard to say,
II can't understand why ] do not get
fat. l eat plenty of good nourish1ng
food" The reason is just this: You
cannot get fat, no matter how much
you eat. unless your digestive organs
assimilate the fat-making elements of
your food instead of passing them out
through the body as waste.
What is needed is a means of gently
urging the assimilative functions of
the stomach and intestines to absorb
the oils and fats and hand them over
to the blood, where they may reach
the starved, shrunken, rundown
tissues and build them up. The thin
persons body is like a dry sponge
eager and hungry for the fatty mater
ials of which it is being deprived by
the failure of the alimentary canal to
take them from the food. A splendid
way of working to overcome this sim
full waste of flesh building elements
and to stop the leakage of fats is to
try Sargol, the famous flesh building
agent that has been so widely sold in
America in recent years. Take little
Sargol tablet with eyer meal and see
if you cheeks don't quickly fill out and
rolls of firm healthy flesh form over
your body, covering each bony angle
and projecting point. Glen Thistleth-
waite's four stores and other good
druggists have Sargol or can get it
from their wholesaler, and will refund
your money if you are not satisfied
with the gain in weight it produces
as stated on the guarantee in each
large package. 1t is inexpensive, easy
to take and highly efficient.
NOTE-Sargol is recommended only
as a flesh builder and while excellent
results in cases of nervous indigestion,
etc. have been reported, care should
be taken about using it unless a gain
of weight is desired.-adv.

Strong For comstock.
In lining up behind the Comstock

have taken what they regard as a
practical view Of the political situa-
ton. In the first place they regard
Judge ComstOck as man particularly
qualified for the office he aspires to-
In the second place they believe the
Wayne county vote next fall will de-

represented in congress the next two
years by Democrat or Republican,
and believing the Democratic nominee
will be very popular Wayne county
man, John M. Lontz, they feel that
the only chance to defeat him will be
the selection of Wayne county man
as the Republican standard-bearer, of
the caliber of Judge Comstock.
Having formulated such an opinion
regarding the merits of the two as
prants for the Republican congress
sional nomination, it is admitted that
Lynch will have to put forth super
human efforts to break down the
Comstock strength in the county
