Women’s Pains
"I was a total wreck,” writes Mrs. Beulah
Rowley, of Champoeg, Oregon, “from pains I had
suffered, for 4 years, every month. Sometimes I
would be unconscious for 12 hours at a stretch. I
did not know that anything could stop the pain
entirely, but Wine of Cardui did. 1 advise all
women suffering with painful periods to use Car
dui and be relieved.”
It does this by regulating the functions and
toning up all the Internal female organs to health.
It is a pure, specific, reliable, female remedy, with
a record of 70 years of
success, it has bene
fited a million others.

STEEL HIGHWAY MACHINE.
Device That Coneiete of a Road Drag
and Grader Combined.
Tlie gap between the homemade apllt
log drag and the steel framed, high
wheeled grader in road building ma
chinery Is being filled by numerous de
vices partaking of the good points of
each. Among the latest of these Inven
tions, says the (?ood Roads Magazine,
is the combined drag and grader shown
In the accompanying Illustration.
This machine is made of channel
■teel and has an adjustable cutting
COMBINED HOAD DRAO AND GKADKR.
blade on the front drag bar that can
be lowered to compensate for wear or
removed entirely when it is desirable
to nse the machine as a drag only.
Channel steel Is used throughout the
construction of this drag for the extra
strength it imparts over that of a tim
ber. frame and for the additional
weight which It affvrds to the drag
bars and cutting blade. It Is designed
to be operated with two horses, but
will carry a weight of a thousand
pounds, and four horses may be used if
necessary.
JERSEY’S GOOD ROADS.
Plan of Governor Fort For Their Im
provement.
At the anunal dinner of the New Jer
sey Automobile club In Newark the
other night Governor Fort W. II.
Hotchkiss, president, and others were
among the speakers. The governor
promised his aid In everything which
would tend to improve the sport In the
state and on the subject of roads said:
“There Is one thing which I hope to
see established In this state, and that
Is a department for automobiles and
motor vehicles. There are two reasons
which go to show that the putting into
effect of such a scheme would be a
benefit to the state and automobile
owners. I might say the chief reason
would be that with such a department
we would derive a revenue which will
equal any other obtained by the state
save that which we receive from cor
poration taxation. We should at least
accumulate in this way $200,000 on a
reasonable basis.
“The other reason Is that we should
have the best roads of any state In the
Union, and with the money derived we
would be In n position to repair and
otherwise maintain these roads. That
is what I propose should be done with
the money derived by the proposed de
partment. It Is my desire to see after
the establishment of such a department
a legislative body that will provide that
every dollar of revenue go to repair
and maintain our roads.”
Educational Methods In Wisconsin.
Wisconsin highway officials are in
fusing modernity into their methods
for educating the public on road build
ing. Arthur U. Hirst, stale highway
engineer, is the author of a series of
booklets designed for popular distribu
tion which t"< :it ! n an extremely lucid
manner of Hie fundamental principles
of road construction and maintenance.
The lirst four numbers treat respec
tively of earth roads, the earth road
drag, stone and graved roads and cul
verts and bridges. Supplementing
these a course has been offered In a
correspondence study department of
the I ::!vi Iry of Wisconsin consisting
of euteen les •ons. which is open to
t!io.si interesp.l in the subject And

the light which they are preparing to
wage before state authorities for 1m
provemeut of the roads between Phil
adelphia and the shore, says an Atlan
tic City special dispatch to the Phlladtd
phla North American. According to the
newcomers, the patches of bad road
are Insignificant In length as compared
to the full leugth of the run, and the
repairs will probably be made before
the opening of the real spring road sea
son. Work has already been started
on the five mile meadow boulevard,
which had been allowed to become
rutty from lack of attention.
Money For Good Roads.
In addressing the house committee
on agriculture at Washlugton the other
day Director of Public Roads Logan
W. Page said his committee would ask
for about $30,000 additional appropria
tion to carry on the educational work
now well under way in various states.
Here and there about the country a
mile or more of good road Is being
built by the government in co-opera
tion with the citizens of the communi
ties to Illustrate the advantage of such
f horoughfares. Where localities are
especially interested the government
furnishes rollers and other machinery
with which to do the work.
Thousands of Rural Mail Routes.
There are 37.728 rural free delivery
routes in the United States, which
meaus an approximate distance of
1,000,000 miles traveled dally by the
carriers.
Rational Pneumonia Treatment
The most successful physicians are
now treating pneumonia by the ap
plication of counter-irritants. They
are learning to resist the temptation
to doctor the cough, which, after all.
Is only nature's effort to relieve her
self, and are endeavoring to reach
the seat of the congestion without
the use of Internal remedies.
Some are using preparations about
as pleasant to the patient as an ap
plication of mud or putty, but the
wisest use a pleasant liquid counter-
irritant.
The Ideal remedy Is Noah's Lini
ment. Its carefully compounded In
gredients possess wonderful powers
of penetration and Immediately re
duce the Inflammation and congestion.
Noah’s Liniment Is absolutely
harmless, and can be used freely
without consultation with a physi
cian. Apply the liniment freely over
the point of pain or congestion. Satu
rate a hot flannel and keep It ap
plied to that portion of the body. The
effect will be almost Immediate, and
In many cases the threatened pneu
monia will be dispelled before a phy
sician can be secured.
Best for rheumatism, solatia, lame
back, stiff joints and muscles, sore
throat, colds, strains, sprains, cuts,
bruises, colic, cramps, etc. For in
ternal and external aches and pains
Noah’s Liniment has no equal. For

d.O.O.OLD SORES
No old sore exists merely because the flesh is diseased at that partic
ular spot; if this were true simple cleafiliness and local applications would
heal them. Whenever a sore or ulcer refuses to heal readily, the blood is at
fault; this vital fluid is filled with impurities and poisons which are being
constantly discharged into the place, feeding it with noxious matter and
irritating and inflaming the nerves and tissues so the sore cannot heal.
These impurities in the blood may be the remains of some constitutional
trouble, the effect of a debilitating spell of sickness, leaving disease germs
in the system, or the absorption by the blood of the fermented refuse matter
which the bodily channels of waste have failed to remove. Again the cause
may be hereditary, the diseased blood of ancestry being handed down to
posterity ; but whatever the cause, the fact that the sore will not heal shows
the necessity for the very best constitutional treatment. There is nothing
that causes more worry and anxiety than an old sore which resists treatment.
Every symptom suggests pollution
and disease—the discharge, the red,
angry looking flesh, the pain and in
flammation, and the discoloration of
surrounding parts, all show that deep
down in the Mood there are morbid
and dangerous forces at work, con
stantly creating poisons which may
in the end lead to Cancer. Local
applications are valuable only for
their cleansing and antiseptic effects;
they do not reach the blood, where
the real cause is located, and can
therefore have no real curative worth.
S. vS. S. heals old sores by going down
to the fountain-head of the trouble
and driving out the poison-producing
germs and morbid matters which are
keeping the ulcer open. It removes every particle of impurity from the cir
culation and makes this life-stream pure, fresh and health-sustaining. Then
as new, rich blood is carried to the place the healing begins, all discharge
ceases, the inflammation leaves, new tissue and healthy flesh are formed,
and .soon the sore or ulcer is well. S. S. S. is the greatest of all blood puri
fiers and finest of tonics, just what is needed in the treatment, and in addi
tion to curing the sore will build up and strengthen every part of the system.

free to all who write. THE SWIFT SPECIFIC C0 M ATLANTA, GA-
I want to recommend S. S. S. to any who an
in need of a blood purifier,'and especially as a
remedy for sores and obstinate ulcers. In 1877
I had my leg badly cut on the sharp edge of a
barrel, and having on a blue woolen stocking
the place was badly poisoned from the dye. A
great sore foi mad and for years no one knows
what I suffered with the place. I tried, it
seemed to me, everything I had ever heard of,
but I got no relief and I thought I would have
to go through life with an angry, discharging
sore on my leg. At last I began the uce of
S. S. S., and it was but a short time until I saw
that the place was improving. I continued it
until it removed all the poison from my blood
and made a complete and permanent cure of
the sore. JNO. ELUS.
