Only in a few centers in the South

I Health officials agree that the ma-j

THE GOOD ROADS MEASURE. !
The legislative committee of the
House and the Senate for the preparation
cf improved highway legislation .
has completed its work and the bill is
now be ins: typed by the engrossing
department and will be introduced in'
to the Genera! Assembly when it
convenes next week.
The length prevented the engrossing
department from completing
more than half of it before it finished
its work today and it hardly will be
completed in time for the bill to re
ceive its first reading next Monday
night when the legislature reconvenes:
but more than likely it will
bg introduced Tuesday.
The bill provides for a dual system
of state and county highways but
it. ...u w.u
IS Silent <IS lO ine liiuieneu wmi'ii
.shall constitute the roads. It provides
that the state highway department
will construct the system of state
highways linking up the county seats
fc of the state, covering such main
| arteries of travel as the commission
I deem advisable. With the consent
of the county authorises it will have
the right to lay out county systems of
, Voads. the cost of construction of
which shall be out of county funds,
the county is to retain the title to th2
roads and bridges.
License Fees for Cars.
The bill provides that beginning
with next year all automobiles weighing
2,000 pounds or under shall pay
an annual license of S6 and an additional
licens of S2 for every additional
500 pounds. The measure provides
P a license fee of $10 a year for onel
ton trucks, $50 for three-ton trucks,
$100 for four-ton trucks, S300<for
five-ton trucks, $500 for six-ton
trucks, SI,000 for trucks of seven
to#s or over. Each motorcycle must
pay an annual tax of S6. Dealers'
licenses are $25 yearly for the first
make of motor driven vehicles sold
and 31f> for each additional make. Of
the amount accruing from the licenses
tax 80 per cent is to he spent
in the county from which it originated
(*cr the maintenance of the state system
in those countk-s. Any surplus
can be used in the cou.uy for roads
and bridges in such manner as decided
upon by the highway department. The
remaining 20 per cent is to go for the
expenses of the department and for
and t;> counties in construction of
roads and bridges.
The bill iik;-wi>e provides an annual
levy of two mills on all taxable
propc!?\ x>: the state.
The rcrsomitl of the commission
remains unchanged. The hill provide?
for live members: one from the engineering
department of the University
of South ("arol'Ra, Olemson college1
;.n<I tho Citadel and two members
to be appointed by the (io.vernoi
for a period of two years each. The

Section 14. There shall be annually
levied upon all taxable property of

shall be retained by the counties and
used for the construction of highways

the respective counties under the
jreneral supervision of the highway
department as provided in tms act.
In the event any county or township

Twenty- five years is a Ion?: time
for anyone to contend with a physical
ailment, but Mrs. A. C. Allison, of 32
Market street, Anderson, says that
during that many years she had suffered
with a number of troubles before
she began taking Tanlac, which,
she said, soon gave her relief. Now
in her endorsement of Tanlac, Mrs.
Allison says, "it is a fine medicine."
Discussing her troubles, ner enons
to find relief and the results Tanlac
gave her, Mrs. Allison says:
"I suffered with indigestion, sleeplessness
and nervous troubles. I had
no appetite and was broken down
generally. I would have spells of neri

way for twenty-live years and had

right away, just as I was told it

of Tanlac I could sleep well. In all
I took four bottles of Tanlac.
"I know from my own experience

that Tanlac is good lor ailments sucn

I am glad to recommend it. I know
it is a fine medicine."
