KEEP YOUNG

People with bad backs and weak kidneys are apt to feel old at sixty. Many old folks say Doan's Kidney Pills help them keep young. Here's a typical case: G. N. Conrad, Prop. black smith shop, 124 F. Summit Ave, Prescott, Ariz., says; When a mar gets to be my age and is do- ing heavy work all day, he is apt to have some kidney trouble. My back became so lame, could n't bend over to shoe a horse. Sharp, cutting pains would catch me in the back and nearly floor me whenever 1 moved quickly. The kidney secretions were un- natural, too. ached all over and was annoyed by specks which seems to float before my eyes. Doan's Kidney Pills soon regu- lated my kidneys and cured meof all the symptoms of. kidney dis order"

 Road viewers report of Spring erville 6 Eagar via Rothlisberger Mill. to N. E. Marbles place road. We, the undersigned, having been duly appointed on the 3rd day of 1920, as a board of view CTS on the aforementioned road, beg leave report to your Honora- bic Board that we have viewed out and located the aforemention- ed road according to the best of our judgment and ability. Hav- ing located the same along the following lines:
 Commencing at the corner of John O. Halls residence in Edgar, west following the present road, which is already open for about a quarter of a mile, to near the Lit tie Colorado River, thence in a Southwesterly direction to where it iptersects the road now open, running south through the center of the east half Df section five (5) | township eight (8) to the present County road running from Edgar to Colter.
 We find that the proposed open ing of a road. continuing on south thru the/center of the southeast quarter (3) of Section eight (8) Township eight (8), will be of so little use for some time to come, we recommend that the opening of a road here be deferred for the present.
 We also call the attention of your Honorable Board to the fact that the road now open from the J. O. Hall corner, west to the turn near the river. is approxi- mately three rods in width.
 We furtVer beg leave to report that the damages caused by the location of said road, not yet opened through the SE3 of section eight, township eight are as fol- lows: -".
 The owners of the land through the last named quarter section reply to us, that if the County will put up a good fence along the two sides of the road through
