LEGISLATIVE NEWS
Continued From rage One)


Regardless of the criticism of
the Mccullough Morgan amend
ment to the Halves road law by
metropolitan newspapers those
familiar with road building in
the state say the amendment
makes the measure more worka-
BILE. This information was given
Governor Gardner by the High
way Commission and Attorney
General McAllister after the bill
was passed. Judge O. w. Hack
worth, of Wayne county, who
worked more on the Halves law
than anyone save Harry B.
HAYES, says the amendment is a
good one. The provisions Of the
amendments are: All roads are
located on inspection by the
Highway Department each
county complying with the law
gets 100000 to be paid in three
yearly i~nstallments of O,OOO
each; roads must be adaptable
and cost not less than an aver
age of $1,000 per mile, one-halt
of the excess cost to be paid by
county; no county can partici,
pate that does not levy 25c spec.
ial road and bridge tax. Govern,
or Gardner has signed it.

MYSTERIOUS PAINS
AND ACHES
Make Life Hard to Bear For
MANY Lexington Women.

many Lexington women.
Too many women mistake their
pains and aches for troubles pc
culiar to the sex. More often dis
ordered kidneys are causing the
aching back, dizzy spells, head
aches and irregular urination.
Kidney weakness becomes dan
gerous if neglected. Use a time
tried kidney remedy-Doan's
Kidney Pills. Hosts of people
testify to their merit. Read a
Lexington case:
Mrs. C. A. Bledsoe, 621 Frank
lin ST., says: "A short time ago
my kidneys acted irregularly
My feet were sore and sensa-
tive. My sides Just over my hips
become awfully sore and lame
and when | bent, sharp knife
like pains shot through my body
Doan's Kidney Pills entirely re.
moved the trouble. | shall al.
ways gladly recommend them t

to compromise a married man so
that his wife may have evidence to
get a divorce, thus permitting her
to marry the man whom she loves.
The unsuspecting husband wins
her sympathy and then her love
and she is brought to a realization
that she is about to injure a noble
man. She wants to retract her
agreement, but the other man. he
who would break mp the home, has
the whip hand over her.
How to escape the predicament
is the trying situation with which
she is confronted. Her womanly

tract much from the interest of

At Brotman's Rialto,

Mystery mingled with the mys-
ticism Of the mountains known as
madre, of which the peak called
Thunder stood even as a sentry
among these giants. John Carr,
millionaire miner, strangely dis
appeared on one of those almost
supernatural1y clear and crystal
line days for which the region is
noted, dropping over the brow of
an icy precipice and out of sight.
Stranger yet was it that he left
a note referring to a will, weighted
down by stone, at the top Of this
precipice. Why should a happy
foster parent to the pride of the
mining country, a vixen widely
sought. and the possessor of un-
told wealth, thus shuttle off, ap-
parentIy a suicide? Yet strangest
OF all was the will He asked his
two nephews to work the mine
mainly for the benefit of charity.
What test this imposed on
these two may be guessed. How
the secret behind IL ali. And why
did a ghost haunt the hillsides
shortly after John Cars death
an earthbound spirit to guard the
gold hoard in the hills OF the dec
adent Croessus?
At least such was the tale of
miners, and it was given credence
This consuming enigma is pro-
pounded in the very first chapter
