ers called the bond election, but be-
cause of the clamor from representa-
tive people of the county everywhere
who demanded these roads. He ex
planned that, due to the decrease in the
number of convicts in the county,
keeping up dirt roads would be more
expensive from this time on.
THE commissioners are ready to do
everything in their power" said he, TO
put this bond issue over, but it is up
to the people, if they really want per-
manent roads. We can't afford to lose
this government appropriation, which
will allow us actually to build these
roads for so cents on the dollar. 1t is
just d question of whether we are go
ing forward or backward"
At the commissioners meeting
which followed the courtroom speak
ing, formal application was made by
the board, through Mr.. Neel, for $780,
900 of the government money and a
map was attached to the application,
to meet the demands of the highway
commission, showing the roads intend
ed to be paved. This map embraced
the Dixie Highway across the county,
the main highway from the river
through Cobb, Leslie, Americas and
Plains, to the Webster county line; the
Vienna road to the new Flint river
bridge, the Ellaville road, the Friend
ship road, the Upper River road and
the Dawson road, branching off south
ward from the Plains road Joe Haw-
kins assisted in preparing this map
Judge Maynard, attorney for the
board, advised the commissioners no
special registration was required for
the bond election, and that for the
bonds to carry they must receive two
thirds of the vote cast, which. total
must equal majority of the total reg
istration.
The registrition board for the county
has been notified of the coming cleo
ton, and will meet within a few DAVIS
to purge the registration list and re-
ceive additions. Only those voters who
have paid their 1918 taxes are eligible
to be registered or vote in this cleo
ton.

DAILY HEALTH TALKS
The Best Way to Treat
Constipation
BY s. c. BABCOCK, M. D.

The medical books name many drugs
that will move the bowels. The drug store
shelves are loaded down with laxatives,
purgatives and pills. The trouble with
most of them is the after-effects. Con-
stipated people know that pills work all
right for q little while, but they soon lose
their effect, and q change has to be made
to something else. The constant taking of
pills results in form OF bowel inactivity
that is difficult to cure. The system be-
comes 80 accustomed to laxative drugs
that the organs Just won't work without
them, and 80 the pill habit becomes as bad
as constipation itself. DR.. Pierce, of Buff
idea. He says the bowels should first be
gently moved with Pierce's Pleasant Pei
lets, and in the meantime laxative foods
only should be eaten. Figs, prunes, olive
oil, spinach, bran, vegetables and fruits are
fine for constipation. Chew every bite
thoroughly, eat little meat, and be as
active as spossible. Now, doesn't that
seem sensible? Pleasant Pellets will start
the bowels working right; then it is UP to
you to keep them right by right eating.
Try Pleasant Pellets for sick headache,
coated tongue, biliousness, dizziness, tor
pid liver or to break up q cold. They
are Just fine! * :. ''-S..
DR.. Pierce's Anodyne Pile Ointment
soothes, cools and heals piles in most
gratifying way. Perhaps there is no other
remedy for this torturing trouble that
relieves so surely and quickly. DR.. Pierce
believes Anodyne Pile Ointment will over
come any case that can, be overcome by
medical treatment. Try it right now.
DR.. Pierce's Anuric Tablets are intended
for people who suffer from kidney dis
orders-whose backs ache, and whose
systems are overrun with uric acid. Nearly
everybody has too much uric acid.
Anuric Tablets dissolve uric acid quickly,
as they are made double strength.

THE "DRY MYSTERY"

Is there any more remarkable epi-
sode in American history than the
sudden sweep of national prohibit
ton?
The New York Tribune, comment
ing on the ratification of the federal
amendment with such celerity and
unanimity, finds it plumbless mys-
terry. There was nothing in contem-
porary politics or life, the Tribune
holds, to explain any such action. at
is as IL sailing ship on a MINDLESS
ocean were sweeping ahead, propel-
led by some invisible force"
There was, indeed, not much Wis
ible and indisputable evidence that
this movement was near so great
climax. Everybody recognized that
prohibition sentiment had grown
rapidly during the war, and several
states had joined the dry column.
Still, some states had refused last
year to step into line. Among the
latter was California, whose legisla-
ture has now committed 1t to prohi-
bition within a few months of the
popular reputation.
Economic considerations seem to
have had little effect. Great indus
trial communities, hitherto regarded
as naturally and permanently in fa-
vor of the liquor traffic, have turned
against it. States with big cities
have yielded about as completely as
states with small urban populations.
Self-interest failed to interfere.
"Whiskey states" like Kentucky.
beer-manufacturing states like Ohio
and Wisconsin and Missouri, wine
growing states like California, have
voted dry along with the rest.
Racial tradition and preference
seem to have exerted just as little
restraining, power. German" cities
like Milwaukee and Cincinnati and
St. Louis, and cities like Boston and
Chicago with large mixed foreign
populations accustomed to moderate
drinking. have gone the way of more
typically American communities.
How explain it? The Tribune,
even while calling it a mystery, sug-
gests the answer. Perhaps our leg
islators are right, and there is a
strong, unseen, popular current to
account for the phenomenon"
There is. 1t is current so strong
that even state legislators, ungifted
as they often are in accurate reading
of their constituencies minds, have
caught this magnetic appeal from
the general public mind-an appeal
just as definite and strong, though
intangible, as that in favor of peace
(. league Of nations-and have been
unable to resist it.
May there be similar mystery"
at Versailles in the matter of doing
away with future wars.
