of good roads to any one individual.
Therefore, the farmer is now back Of
aoad Improvement.
Does the city man feel any interest
In good roads? Ask your neighbor.
If he doesn't own an automobile he ex-
poets to own one, and he knows all
about where the good roads are and
what they mean. But when his lnflu-
ence counts big, the greatest impetus
has naturally sprung from the numer-
GUS army of motorcar owners to whom
motorcar ownership has made the ter
ritory for miles around his nelghbor-
hood.
Counties and states where good
roads have become steady part of a
progressive program of legislation have
seen values shoot up In the most sur
prising fashion, and this, again, has
brought home the fact that good roads
pay for themselves. Thus 1t is natu-
raj that the years 1919 and 1920 will
see the most stupendous good roads pro-
grams inaugurated In America that the
world has ever known. This will
result In the wider utility of motor
cars and motortrucks and, Of course,
prove big aid to the solution of the
freight traffic problem.

BEGINS

The excruciating aconies Of rheuma-
tism are usually the result of failure Of
the kidneys to expel poisons from the
system. II the irritation of these uric
acid crystals is allowed to continue, in
durable bladder or kidney disease may
result. Attend to it at once. Don't
resort to temporary relief. The sick
kidneys must be restored to health by
the nse Of some sterling remedy which
will prevent return of the disease.
Get some GOLD MEDAL HARLEM
Oil Capsules Immediately. They have
brought back the joys Of life to count
less thousands of sufferers from rheu-
matism, lame back, lumbago, sciatica,
gall stones, gravel and other affections
Of the kidneys, liver, stomach, bladder
and allied organs.
They will attack the poisons at once,
clear out the kidneys and urinary tract
and the soothing healing oils and herbs
will restore the infamed tissues and
organs to normal health.
