4 NERVOUS WRECK
from Three Years Suffering. Says
Cardm Made Her Well.

Texas City, Tex.-In an interesting
statement, Mrs. 6. H. Schill, Of this town,
says: "For three years l suffered untold
agony with my head. l was unable to
do any Of my work.
! just wanted to sleep all the time, for
Rat was the only ease ! could get, when
was asleep. became a nervous wreck

head.
Twas so nervous that the least noise
would make me jump out Of my bed. !
had no energy, and was unable to do
anything. My son, a young boy, had to
do all my household duties.
Twas not able to do anything until
took Cardui. ltook three bottles in all,
and it surely cured me of those awful
headaches. That has been three years
ago, and know the cure is permanent,
ior have never had any headache since
taking Cardui. ..
Nothing relieved me until l took Cardui.
It did wonders for me-"
Try Cardui for your troubles-made
from medicinal ingredients recommended
in medical books as being of benefit in
female troubles, and 40 years Of use has
proven that the books are right. Begin

COPYRIGHTED FARM AND RANcH.HoLLAND's MAGAZINE

Just what items the costs of dis
tribution include depends upon the
method Of distribution; but in gen.
eral, most products pass through
the retailer to the consumer This
path from the manufacturer to the
consumer might be called the chan
mel of distribution.
The effect Of advertising is to les
sen the resistance to the flow OF the
product through this channel That
is, the advertising enables both the
jobber and the retailer to sell the
goods more easily and quickly and
in larger quantities and to turn their
stocks oftener, resulting in lower
costs Of selling.
This all works to the best inter
ests Of the consumer-a lower retail
price

BILLIONS OF GERMS
Morgan City People Should Learn
oHw To Combat Them.

You can fight off the billions OF
germs which you swallow.
How about the uric acid which
your own system creates?
Can you conquer that too?
Yes, if your kidneys work right
But if they don't, backache, dir
illness or other symptoms.
Soon warn you of gravel peril.
You must live more simply
That's what Morgan City has
found.
Use Doan's Kidney Pills to
strengthen your kidneys.
Easy to verify local testimony.
Read this case:
Mrs. Fahrenheit, Morgan City,
says: 81 have taken Doan's Kidney
Pills on several occasions when my
kidneys have been out of order and
and my back has felt weak and
lame. 1t has only required short
use to give relief. / am satisfied
that there is no better medicine
than Doars Kidney Pills for kidney
disorders"
Price 60 cents at all dealers.
Don't simply ask for kidney rem

same that Mrs. Fahrenheit had.

ADVERTISING MAKES FOR LOW.
Err PRICES

Among the many forces tending
to raise the cost of living, it is en-
couraging to find one other whose
tendency is in the opposite direction.
Advertising is the friend of the
consumer. 1t tends to lower prices.
1t does this in two ways. By leading
to greater volume of sales, it makes
possible the economies of large scale
production, resulting in a lower cost
Of production per unit.
The second way is by reducing the
costs of distribution. A large ele-
ment in the total cost of most prod
ucts is the cost of getting them from
the factory out into the hands Of
the final consumer.

STATE ROAD BOND
PLAN MEETS FAVOR
Project >PON SbRED BY LOCAL
ASSOCIATION Is BEING GEN
tLLl ENDORSED.

Endorsement OF the proposed plan
10 give Washington a $4,000. 900
highway system, covering some 200
miles OF permanent hard surfaced
roads without cost to the home owner
Tor the farmer, put forward by the
Thurston County Good Roads asso-
cation, is coming from all parts OF
the state.
As explained by DR.. p. H. Carlyon
!of Olympia before the assembled
county engineers and county COM
missioners in Seattle recently. the
Iplan contemplates the paving of
magnificent highway system cover
| ing all parts of the state, providing
access to the scenic spots as we'll as
the important farming, numbering
and industrial sections. through a
! financial arrangement that brings no
burdens to any real estate owner. to
any tenant or any consumer; and far
| it will relieve him of heavy expense
he now bears. In fact. the only in
lterests that will bear the burden
will be the absentee gasoline pro-
Queer, the absentee tire manufac-
| turer and the absentee automobile
maker.
The comprehensive highway i'm
provement will mean a tremendous
saving to the autOmobilists of the
state in increased mileage per gallon,
in longer life to tires and in saving
OF wear and tear on equipment, while
opening up still greater avenues of
enjoyment and utility. Millions will
be saved to the motorists and truck
owners, the most conservative esti
mates running at least SIS a car a
year.
| How is all this to be accomplished?
Here is the plan in a nutshell: Cap
italze the savings that good roads
bring to motorists by bonding the
automobile revenues. By placing the
credit of the state behind such
bonding plan and enlarging the rev.
enues of the automobile department
to meet the increased charges and
sinking fund, the trucks and auto
mobiles deriving. profit and benefit
from the proposed highway system
would provide all the money needed
for the construction.
In addition to this program, the
bonding plan would release regular
road revenues now available for the
preparation of the road beds. the lay
ing out and improving of new roads
and the repair of many roads now
sadly neglected because of the re-
quirements of artificial highways.
