START ROAD WORK IN SOUTH
All States Now Actively Engaged in
improving Highways for Better
Transportation.

Road construction. which has been
suspended or partly suspended in
every part Of the South since the
United States entered the war. is re-
suming In all southern states on a
far greater scale than ever before in
the history Of that section of the coun
try.
In Virginia, West Virginia and
Kentucky the work of making per-
manent and new highways cannot get
full swing during the winter season,
but extensive preparations are under
way in these states for intense activ-
ity in the spring. In the balance Of
the southern states where as good
wu':a can be done in the winter as In
the s"mmer. big starts have already
teen made. Great activity is reported
in Louisiana and Mississippi.

Look and Feel
Clean, Sweet and
, Fresh Every Day
Drink q glass Of real hot water
before breakfast to wash
out poIsons.

Life is not merely to live, but to
live we'll, eat we'll, digest we'll, work
we'll, sleep we'll, look we'll, and yet
low very easy it is if one will only
adopt the morning inside bath.
Folks who are accustomed to feel
lull and heavy when they arise, split
ing headache, stuffy from a cold, foul
ongue, nasty breath, acid stomach,
IAN, instead, feel as fresh as a daisy
~ opening the sluices of the system
zach morning and flushing out the
whole of the internal poisonous stag
nant matter.
Everyone, whether ailing, sick or
we'll, should, each morning, before
breakfast, drink a glass of real hot
water with a teaspoonful of limestone
phosphate in it to wash from the
stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels the
previous days indigestible waste,
sour bile and poisonous toxins; thus
cleansing, sweetening and purifying
the entire alimentary canal before
putting more food into the stomach.
The action of hot water and limestone
phosphate on an empty stomach is
wonderfully invigorating. It cleans
waste and acidity and gives one a
splendid appetite for breakfast. While
you are enjoying your breakfast the
water and phosphate is quietly ex-
tracting a large volume Of water from
the blood and getting ready for a
thorough flushing Of all the inside
organs.
The millions of people who are
bothered with constipation, bilious
spells, stomach trouble, rheumatism !;
others who have sallow skins, blood
disorders and sickly compilations are
urged to get quarter pound Of lime
stone phosphate from the drug store
which will cost very little, but is
sufficient to make anyone a pro-
nounced crank on the subject Of
internal sanitation.

Submarine Signals.

During the war; as Is we'll known,
Submarine sound-signaling made great
strides. In Schiffbau an account Is
given Of device employed in Ger
many. In this device the receiver is
secured to the outer layer Of the ships
hull from inside and Is filled with wa
ter, the liquid being in contact
with the outer plating Of the
vessel. The essential point in this de-
vice appears to be that the means for
producing the sound are placed ex.
ternally on the wall Of the liquid tank,
whereas in most cases the sounding de-
vice has hitherto been arranged in
side the tank or receiver. Another
special feature Is an automatic ar,
rungement for maintaining constant,
or adjusting, the level Of the water.
which can be manipulated externally.

The heaviest vehicle that ordinarily
has passed over a public highway
heretofore Is the 15-ton traction en-.
sine. Such engines are so designed
that the rear axle carries about two
thirds OF the total weight, which ar
ransement gives a concentrated pres
sare on the road surface of about five
tons under each rear wheel. The use
Of much heavier equipment Is in sight,
however. and unless some regulations

Too Much Water
 Is Getting Away !. :. Through the Pipes

The water tanks which supply the hill people were considerably depict ed last evening because the residents left open their pipes to keep them from freezing.
 "The trouble is," said one of the officials" that most people leave their pipes wide open. Just a pin point of water, enough to keep the water circulating. is sufficient to pre- vent pipes from freezing. If resi- dents would bear this in mind there would be plenty of pressure and wa- ter for every one. Another safe plan is to turn off the water at night, in order to save the pipes.
