STATE HAS OWN

Later perhaps. hard surfaced roads
will replace the graveled roads and it is
safe to say that the construction Of those
roads. which are now in the making. is
being carried on with the idea that even

question. however. will develop the more
rapidly when once the State is operating

a pleasure. Hardly week has gone by
Tor the last several months but that new
bids have been opened and new contracts
awarded for additional miles of high
ways
Generally speaking in the past year
approximately 800 miles Of highway have
been constructed az an estimated cost

mile cost considerably higher than Il

On that basis the average mile of high

PROBLEMS ARE
SOLVED PROMPTLY.

In some sections of the State. how.
ever, the problems of the road builders
are confined almost entirely to matters
of fills and drainage. And these problems
are being met and solved with the pre-
csion that marks all the activities Of thu
State highway commission
As result. low places in well trav-
eled roads which have been under water
for the past two or three years. are being
filed in. and the roads made passable
throughout their entire length. In many
eases, because of the opposition Of Ger
tain classes to the surrender of their
land for drainage purposes, 1t has been
necessary for the commissions engineers
to lay out entirely new roadways This
opposition on the part of certain farmers
has caused the commission much trouble
already.
But new riGhts-of way are always
found. and it will not he long before
the farmer who blocked the original
right of-way by his stubbornness will see
the folly Of his ways. when the new road
in some cases removed long distances
from the original right of way, is COM
pleted and affords his more fortunate
neighbors quicker and easier means of
transit.

West Ninth Street Children Grieve Over
Shetland Pony's Death.

The sorrowful news that Buster
the Shetland pony that has been the pet
of ". Clayton Jester of 1902 West Ninth
street, has gone west has caused real
grief among the children of that neigh
borhood. He was Ia and had suffered for
some months from an unusual disease,
"osteosclerosis, which decalci6ed the
bones of the head, and made 1t necessary
TO destroy him Yesterday.
He was a familiar figure on the city
streets, driven to little basket cart, and
had been a blue-ribbon winner at the
State Fair and other shows, As he was
not tall enough to drink from ordinary
fountains, his driver usually carried a
wood block in the rig, about a foot long
When this was put up against the bottom
of the fountain, Buster would stand
on it with his fore-feet and thus
raise himself high enough 10 get a
drink Many other traits and tricks showed
his intelligence and friendliness and made
him favorlte with his friends.

MY TIRED FEET
ACHED FOR 'TIz'
Let Your Sore, Swollen, Aching Feet
Spread Ont in a Bath of "'riz."

Just take your shoes OFF and then put
those weary. shoe-crinkled, aching. burn
ing, corn-pestered. bunion- tortured feet
of yours in a "Tiz' bath. Your toes
will wriggle with joy; they'll look up
al you and almost talk and then they'll
take another dive in the ''Tiz" bath.
When your feet feel like humps Of
lead-all tired out-just try "Tiz." It's
grand-it's glorious. Your feet will
dance with Joy; also you will find all
pain gone from corns. callouses and
bunions.
There's nothing like 'Tiz." It's the
only remedy that draws out all the
poisonous exudations which pun up your
feet and cause foot torture.
Get a box OF "Tiz" at any drug or
department store-don't wait. Ah! how
glad your feet get; how comfortable
your shoes feel. You can wear shoes
a size smaller II you desire.
