Friends of Quakers. He resides at

"Uncle Parker" as he is more
familiarly known, came from fine old
rugged Quaker stock, and there is not
a better known or more highly re-
spected citizen in that part of the
state. In referring to his remarkable
restoration to health by Tanlac, he
said:
"About five years ago l suffered a
general breakdown. My principal
trouble was nervous indigestion. My
appetite was very poor and my food
seldom agreed with me, and l had to
live on a very restricted diet. I suf-
fered a great deal from headaches
and dizzy spells; had severe pains
across the small Of my back and was
badly constipated most of the time.
In fact, I was so weak and rundown
I was not able to attend to my duties.
"This condition made me very
nervous and could not sleep at night.

all night and was in that condition
more or less for five years. My
physician said he could not do any

PROPER LOCATION FOR ROAD
Among Other Things Consider Easy
Grades, Good Drainage and EIini-
nation Of CuIverts.

Some of the things to be considered
in locating a road are easy grades,
good drainage, exposure to sunshine,
elimination of culverts and bridges by
avoiding unnecessary creek crossings,
directness and the number of farms
to be served for a given length of road.
Whenever possible to avoid it, a good
location should not be rejected merely
because a certain roadway has been In
use for some time. If the location OF
a used road Is bad it should be-
changed if possible. In relocating
roads avoid railroad crossings at
grade.
