I obtained more relief from the back
ache and disordered condition of the

as the best kidney medicine thore Is
and I believe this to be so."

Behold, a certain man had a feel
ing that he would be the best man to
repair, improve and oversee the work
on the public highway, and he forth
with sent forth his runners to see
how many would rally to his banner,
and a goodly number were ready to
follow his lead, but lo and behold,
another thought he ought to be It;
and yet again another said "No, I am
It. Why would ye follow a new lead
er? . Am I not doing all I can?"

your gain, as you would find," and

can not have it their way they would

more wages, are deliberate falsehoods,

Judgment, the road work Is progress

better weather conditions heretofore,
and every one is earning every cent
he gets.
