PATIENT SUFFERING.
Women Think They
Poomed to Backache.
It is not right for women to be a-
ways ailing with backache, urinary
ills, headache and ota-

gE troubles quickly. Mrs

and a doctor told me | would never
get more than temporary relief: A
dragging pain and lameness in my
back almost disabled me. Dizzy
spells came and went and the kidne;
secretions were irregular. Doan's
Kidney Pills rid me of these troubles

Many Are
years
An Innovation In Roads.
During the last few years much
interest has been taken in the cru-
sade for good roads, and in many
parts of the country mode] stretches
of highway have been constructed
by “good roads’ commissions to
serve as examples to the natives of |
each locality. Much valuable in-
struction has been imparted in this
manner, but apparently no plan dis-
covered for overcoming the difficul-
ties of road building in a’sandy soll.
It remained for a Minnesota man to |
adopt a new method of construction
suitable for such a condition.
George W. Cooley, State highway
engheer of Minnesota, has designed
a road tha is werviceable, in spits |
of a sandy foundation. A section
of his new counsiruction jis located
at Cambridge, In Isanti County. In
this digtric: there is nothing but sand
for a top soil, and it is impossible to
preserve a road without adding some
other material. Mr. Cooley finally
decided that sawdust was the com-
ponent necessary, and a four-inch
layer of this was raked into a stretch
of road which had been carefully
graded. Passing teams thoroughly
ground together this mixture, and
whenever ruts were worn into the
surface they were filled with fresh
sawdust. The fine particles of wood
gradually rot, forming a heavy loam
with the sand, 2nd the result is a
firm roadbed, suitable to all ordinary
traffic.— Harper's Weekly.
American flour is welcomed in the
Netherlands because of its peculiar |
value for bread-making in oconnec-
tion with the home.milled soft-wheat
flours, with which it is blended by
the bakers.

ROSY AND PLUMP be
Good Health From Right Food.
“It’s not a new food to me,” re
marked a Va. man, in speaking of
Grape-Nuts,
“About twelve months ago my wile
was in very bad health, could not
keep anything on her stomach. The
Doctor recommended milk half water,
but it was not sufficiently nourishing.
“A friend of mine told me one day
to try Grape-Nats and cream. The
result was really marvelous. My.
wife soon regained her usual strength
and to-day is as rosy and plump as
when a girl of sixteen.
“These are plain facts, and nothing
| could say in praise of Grape-Nuls
would exaggerate in the least the
value of this great food.” .
