The Pittsburg Dispatch ) Country Road Expedition; Ltthebsburo, Pa, May 5. In Clearfield county I have run across tome specimens of another class of victims to bad country roads, very common all over Western Pennsylvania. As they sat upon a farm fence I had tbem photographed. They were only able to attend the township school last winter and this spring on an average ol three days a week. When the mud dries up they go every day. They were a living proof of the assertion that neglected public highways breed illiteracy. We left Brookville, Jefferson county, at 11a. J!, yesterday, and by 7 P. M. had cov ered quite a large agricultural area in Clear? field county, including the villages of Lutn ersburg and Troutville. We found THE ROADS ALL, BAD, except in Brady township, between Kew Salem and Luthersburg, where the tax payers had worked out tbeir taxes the previ ous day, and had left tne highways in ex cellent condition. They had used a road building machine for the first time. "As long as we have dirt roads," said C. H. Goodlander, a farmer ot that township, to me, "the only proper method of keeping them in repair is by means of these ma chines. We have just bought this one, and a money tax ot 2 extra mills has been levied in Brady to pay lor it. Our whole road tax, including that, is 7 mills. Once it was 15 mills. They were then building some new roads. Tes,7 mills is pretty heavy, but Wt must have the roads repaired. QUAKBYIN'C STONE EXPENSIVE. "I have helped, to spend a good bit of money on tbem year after year, and I am not prepared to say that they show for the A ROAD expenditure. Yet how are you coinr to make any permanent improvement? We have .limestone in Clearfield county, but it is too costly to quarry for macadamizing purposes. We must 'strip" it six or eight feet, that is to say, it lies that deep under the ground. "I am certain it would never pay any township in Clearfield county to undertake such quarrying on their own financial re sources. As to whether the State could undertake by an annual appropriation to quarry limestone enough for all Pennsylva nia, and distribute it over counties where there is no limestone deposits, I cannot ex press an opinion, never having studied the question. It is only fair, though, to re member that this winter has been worse on the roads than any within the recollection or the oldest inhabitants of Clearfield coun ty. FABMERS ALL ISOLATED. 'The roads were actually so cut up and so J xauaay mat, not aesiring to aouble-teamouf wagons, and risk the wear and tear on horses and running gear, many of us farmers had to stay at home most all winter and spring. It is not that way every winter and spring, however, though, of "course, cold weather and thawing seasons always render the roads inconvenient for travel. Yes, the limestone we have in Clearfield is very valuable for other purposes. We farmers dig it out, burn it, and scatter the lime over oar land as fertilizer. I hare had no experience with it as a road-making material." "Well, I have had," remarked David Johnson, another farmer standing in the group. "A short time ago I was visiting friends in the Shenandoah Valley of West Virginia. I had to do a great deal of driv ing on the Winchester pike the same on which Sheridan made his celebrated ride. It is a magnificent thoroughfare, and it was made of limestone. Limestone and scientific construction has made it durable, absolutely impervious to the weather, and smooth as a floor. rTABBOW AND "WIDE TIKES. "Yet they care for such a highway in a systematic manner as well. For a wagon with the narrow tire with which yours is fitted, at least 50 cents toll is charged. The tires of The Dispatch wagon are 1 inches wide, the width oi the average wagon tires in Western Pennsylvania. Bnt for tires 34 inehes wide only 15 cents toll is charged, and you can drive as far as you want for that amount In this way wide wagon tires came into vogue in that part of West Virginia many years ago, and all roads there have been benefited by them. They do not cut up the road, and distrib uting the weight of load more evenly, act as a sort of a ground-roller, making the sur face smoother if anything." This opened up a discussion on the ad Tantages of wide tires lor wagon wheels. Both Messrs. Goodlander and Johnson be lieved that the adoption or a general law in Pennsylvania, laying a heavy license tax on narrow tires, would certainly make the country roads better in a few year. They thought it would also result in a more equitable division of the cost of road repairs, for the reason that THOUSANDS OF CITY WAGONS which go out 'into the country on short trips J bare the narrow tires, thus compelling city people to stand a share of country road taxes. The tax on narrow tires could then be thrown into township or county funds for the repair of roads. In a, few years it would been seen that to escape this license tax the tires of wagons would generally be made broader, and then the real benefits to the roads wonld begin to show, for the withdrawal of narrow tires wonld probably lessen the evil of ruts. A Pennsvlvanian dislikes to admit that a riral State lias done anything better than his own Commonwealth, and yet a remark by Mr. Goodlander at this juncture was eguiva lent to such a conlcssion. He said he sup posed that Winchester pike, in Virginia, had been built by a private corporation, and that private capital is generally more judi ciously handled than Government works, A CLAY TUBNPIKE. This may or may not be so, but it is a fact that the very road on which Messrs. Good lander and Johnsonstood by The Dispatch wagon at that moment was once the Phila delphia and Erie (VTaterford and Susque hanna) tnrnpike a route of more commer cial importance at one time than any ot Vir ginia's Highways. let it was only built of clay, and clay it remains. It was made by a private corporation. So was the Virginia Turnpike Company. Which constructed the most lasting work? VICTIMS OF Mr. Goodlander had told me that Brady township's road tax and principally for this old turnpike, too was 7 mills. Mr, Johnson said there were no taxes and pre cious little labor required to Keep up the Winchester pike. Here was a silent hut powerful argument for macadam as against clay. Another Clearfield county farmer said to me: "Will not experiments show that Pennsylvania can furnish some stone equal ly as good as limestone for road-making? The vagrant character of limestone veins in this State, and the cost of transporting it after it is quarried, seem to be the two reasons for much of the opposition to ma cadamizing the roadways. UTILIZING THE BOULDERS. "How, I was much impressed with what The Dispatch found in Forest county. You were told up there that they had plenty of blue flagstone, a spuri ous limestone, which was sufficiently hard to bear heavv teaming. The mountainous character of Western Pennsylvania has maae its supply oi rocic and stones abund ant. All the great boulders in these woods, the rocks that rib the mountains, and the stone that fill the fields, are not always MACHINE. sandstone. Why can't these boulders bo broken up, run through stone crushers, and used to macadamize roads? The State Commission should set on loot a series of scientific and chemical experiments with stone of all kind to ascertain the weight they will bear and what effect rain, sun and wind would have upon them whpn broken into small pieces. I feel sure such experi ments would show that every county has native stone of sufficient hardness and dura bility to macadamize all its highways with out going to the expense oc transporting limestone from different quarters." Jacob Long, near Troutville, told me that the ure of road macbines, he believed, would lower road taxes from 2 to 3 mills every year. WOKK DONE BY A MACHINE. He has had experience with them in Brie county, and he has known it to be possible to repair and rebuild one mile and a halt of road in a day with one. machine, three men and two horses; that is, of course, after the plow has made the road ready to oegin on. To do the same mile and a half without a machine would take the work of a dozen men and half a dozen teams the best part of a weefc.

Our driver remarked that if roadmachines, run over the highway every spring for four ofiye vears. naeked the earth down each time la that well-graded shape, the dirt foundations wonld then be perfectly sloped and the highway would be in all the better condi tion for macadamizing, since the grading for the lowest course of stone on a macadam ized road must taper oil from the middle, in order to drain away the water they will soak 'down from the surface, DANGEROUS HIGHWAYS.

THE PUBLIC During the past two years have read tha many testimonials from patients who hare been enred by tho physicians of the Catarrh and Dyspepsia Institute at No. 323 Fenn avenue. Flease remember that these patients were not those who bad some simple catarrh of the bead which, with a few local treatments and snnff medicines at. the hands of the doctor seem to be cured bnt were patients suffering from catarrh in its most aggravated, chronic form, and which, in soma cases, had developed Into consumption. Notwithstanding tho fact that numerous traveling doctors and so-called specialists havo located In Ffttsbnrg, the patronage of this medical institution has steadilyincreased. The testimonials published, and which always contain the naiuo as signed by the patient, together with the crowds of people who daily call on these specialists, prove their success in the treatment of catarrh. Also please remember that this Is the only institution in Pittsburg where only catarrh, dyspepsia and diseases of women are received for treatment, preferring to treat these diseases successfully rather than attempt to cure all diseases. Jlfr. Fred Bahn, Another well-known resident of Bharpsburg has been a victim of catarrh and dyspepsia. His stomach gave him an endless amonnt of trouble. Re had belching of gas from his stomach after eating, sonr taste, and often felt like vomiting his food. His appetite was poor, and as his liver was much enlarged it gave him great pain. In fact, he wonld often be taken with such sharp cramps and pain across his stomach and bowels it seemed as If he conld not live. He bad palpitation of the heart, dizziness, weakness and pain across the small of his back, and a numb, lifeless feeling in bis limbs. He conld get bat little sleep, and as every change of weather gave him a cold, be took on a lingering cough. His breath became short and be felt pain and soreness in his lungs and under bis shoulder blades. Night sweats weakened him very fast, and be gradually grew worse until he lost 30 pounds of flesh. Having a wife and two small children whom be dearly loved, depending on him for a living, and hav ing spent all his money In doctoring to no avail, not being able to work, he became discouraged and disheartened, and often became so melan choly that he would feel tempted to jump into the river and thns end his suffer ing. One day he noticed in the paper an account of a patient who bad been cured by the catarrh specialists at 323 Penn avenne of conditions that seemed similar to his own. Ho resolved to call on these special ists. He did so, and was told he could yet be cured. Although be had but little faith, he re solved to try once more, and after taking a coarse of treatment became enred. He says: 'Tho above history of my disease and enre is trno in every respect. I bad received treat ment from 20 physicians, yet gradually grew worse, and for one year before beginning treat ment with these physicians I was scarcely aoie to ao any worK. 1 nave now worjcea nara for the past two months, feel well and strong, and words do not express the Joy I feel that my life has been spared and health restored.

He who thinks that any merchant tailor in this city shows a grander or finer variety of high excel lence piece goods than we do is the most mistaken man in all Pittsburg. True, we don't ask the exorbitantly high prices for which other first-class tailors are noted, but this, you will admit, does not debar us from making first-class garments. The secret that enables us to undersell the other fellows is to be found in our far larger and strictly cash transactions. "Beats" who don't pay their tailor bills receive no encourage ment from us. Thus, no bad debts creep into our books, and we need not resort to the unbusinesslike procedure of advertising judgments for unpaid tailor bills. And (this is the worst of it) these losses will have to be made up by whom? Why, by you, of course. How? By making you pay extortionate profits. This, together with narrow-gauge business facilities, compels the exclusive tailors to ask from 25 to 50 per cent above our prices.

EHTLEMEH who want new Spring Suits made for Decoration Day had better leave their measure now. Now, although our cutters and tailors are very busy, we are still able to ex ecute every order promptly and care fully; after awhile, however, when our Custom Department will be fairly jammed with work, we might not, de spite our largely increased force of workmen, be able to give the care, at tention and promptness so characteristic of our way of doing business. Besides, by leaving your measure now, you will yet have the advantage of mak ing your selection from an unbroken, stock of DOMESTIC AND IMPORTED Suitings & Trouserings. Indeed, the assortment of fine woolens shown by us is a veritable exposition of the products of the most celebrated looms of England, Scotland France, Castonet Wheels or Balls and Bats. my5 ItAII.ROADS.
