Good roads not only lead to town

ple who want ,tp move to Clinton.
Will we never get that building
boom started?
The place that gives a man his
living is entitled to his best efforts
to advance everything calculated
to benefit the place and the com
munity. This is a truth we should
all learn.
We are glad to note that the city
is putting forth new efforts to
regulate speeding and the parking
of cars on the square. ' This is an
important matter and one that
should be given attention since hu
man life is at stake when fast and
reckless driving is permitted. The
speeding should be stopped if we
are to have safety first, last and
all the time
know r it is much cheaper than the
mistakes that are caused by an ov
erworked mind-
All of the efficiency and business
magazines are realizing more clear
ly each year that “all work and no
play makes Jack a dull boy.’’ Most
of our greatest business executives
hnvc regnbn- periods of rerrelation.
—golf, tennis, swimming, or some
other sport—just as they have regu
lar office hours, for they have
fuond that fresh air and exercise
bring clear thinking and big-pro
fits.
This same* principle may be and
should be applied in tfie small town
and in the small business just as
much as in million dollar corpora
tions. So if you haven’t had your
vacation, better hie you forth now
to the woods and fields and take a
good rest.* Business can take care
of itself for a week or so, and when
you return von’ll he better able to
y %
take care of business.
“The Xamral Law” is a strong
play and the lesnon to be learned
is indisputably real and convinc
ing. It is a story that is being en
acted by 600.000 girls annually in
the Tinted States, and the play as
presented here will do much to cur
tail the vice which is only too pre
valent in our larger cities. It was
a successful p^esentaHon.—The

We can’t all be leaders in our
town, but we com at least keep up
with the crowd .
“Measure your work with a
speedometer, not a clock. I don’t
care how long you took. I want to
know how far you went”. This
is the employment policy of one of
America’s greatest executives. He
alos says, “I pay for results, not
explanations”. If half the ideas
wasted on excuses were properly
applied, progress would be three
centuries further down the pike:

Vacation time will soon be over
ind everyone should turn again to
heir work with renewed zeal.
Some men and women are so
’oolish as to believe that they can
work year in and year out and
lever take a variation--—that they
ire strong enough to be proof
against the dangerous inroads
which overwork makes on the hu
man system. But .sooner or later
they are 'almost certain to learn
their mistake. And when the break
down cohi&» theyjwill realize how
much cheaper it , would have been
for them had they quit working for
a short period each summer and
taken a complete rest.
A vacation improves your work
and consequently your earning
power. All the big corporations
and businesses which employ sev

end every summer they grant all
their employees vacation on full
pay. Even though this may cost
them several thousand dollars, they

T is characteristic of
folk* after they pew the allotUd
“thrM aeon ywrs and ten,” to look
book over the <Uya thnt an gone
and thoughtfully lire them over.
I and myeelf, nt aorenty-one, frequently
drifting back a quarter of » oontnir, when
1 eee myeelf in tho litU# drag etore t owned
nt Bolirer, Mo., making and aelling n
vegetable compound to mv Monde and
caetomere what waa then known only aa
Dr. Lewie’ Medicine for Stomaeh, Uver
nnd Bowel Complninta. a
For many yeara while I waa perfecting my
formnlu I etqdled nnd Inreatigatod the
laxative* nnd cathartics on tho market nnd
became convinced that their main fault
was not that they did not net on the bowela.
but thnt their notion waa too violent and
druetie, nnd upaet the eyatem of the near;
which wae,due to tho fact that they were
not thorough enough in thoir notion, eome
•imply noting on the upper or email intee-
tinea, wbfTe others would net onlv on tho
lower or large intesUnes, nnd that they
almost invariably produced a habit re
quiring augmented doses.
I believed that a preparation to produce
tho boat effect must Bret tone the liver,
then net on the atomnch and entire alimen
tary eyatem. If this was accomplished, the
medicine would produce n mild, hut
thorough elimination of the waste without
tho neual sickening sensations, nnd make
the user feel better at once.
After ^experimenting with hundred* of
different compounds, I nt Inst perfected the
formnlu that is now known as ffeWre’s
i, which I truly believe goee further
nnd does more than nay laxative on the
market today. Tho thousands of letters
from users have convinced mo I was right,
nnd thnt the user of Nahwe’i fteewdy ns n
family medicine, even though ho may have
used it for twenty-flvo yean, never has
to increase the does.
My knowledge of medicine and the re
sults of its nee in my own family and
among my friends, before I ever offered It
for sale, caused me to have great faith in
“ ‘ ‘ “ * from tho very Int.
And sow ns I find myself nearing the age
when I must how to the inevitable and go
to another life, my greatest pleasure is to
eit each day and read the letters that each
mail brings from people as old or older
than 1, who tell of having need ■atere’a
HemeOr for ten, fifteen and twenty years,
and now they nnd their children nnd
grandchildren have been henefitted by it.
It is a consoling thought, my Mends, for
n man at my age to feel that aside from
hie own suooess, one bus done something
for hie follow man. My greatest satisfac
tion, my greatest happiness today, is the
knowledge that tonight morn than one
million people will take a Wife's Remedy
(If & Tablet) and will he better, healthier,
happier people for it, I hope you will
bo onenof them.
