terribly swollen and blOated. l con-
tinued taking medicine all summer
with the result l was rapidly getting
worse
Having herd a little of Chiro-
practic l decided to try it as last
resort. l called W. D. Adrian, Chi
ropractor, of McConnelsvil1e, and he
took my case. After eight trips to
my home on Bald Eagle creek l was
much improved and able to make
the trip seven miles to McConnels-
vile three times week. l took 80
adjustments and was able to do my
work and felt like living again.
Along with my other troubles my
rupture disappeared SO that
haven't worn a truss for over s
months. l feel l cannot say too
much for Chiropractic and what it
has done for me.

DEMOCRATIC
Candidate for Congress
A GOOD ROADS ADVOCATE


James R. Alexander has worked
persistently for many years in an
endeavor to get the people of South
eastern Ohio "out Of the mud" He
is a foremost advocate Of Good
Roads, but is opposed to the expen-
diture of large sums of money on a
few roads when many of the rural
sections are left with no relief. Why
spend $4,000 for one mile of road,
he argues, when that same amount
of money will build for you from 10
to 25 miles of good gravel roads?
If the rural sections are to be
reached with good roads we must
get more mileage for the money
spent. With the decrease taking
place in our rural population, when
will the people awaken to the fact
that the neglect of the rural sec
tions in the building of roads can
not continue without serious conse-
quences to both city and country?
