THE ROAD CONG ilE .
Tuesdiay, the . :h inl-st., has b2en ap
winted as the time for thC mCCting of
eountv supervisors ald others lnter
ese-l in road work. Theu convention,
as previously announced. will u1eet in
this city, but as thc State I ione, owingv
to the S,5ions of the ContiTutik :1
Coniventiont, wvill ntbe aviab, iP.
has been thbought best to hold it in the~
county court house. Arrangrcment
have been male for reduced rates of
board for the d<lettes -nd it i
thought that the r.0h1oad. wil exte:d
the usual courtesy of a round In; rate
to those who attend the convetion.
Itf the convention is as largre a it
should be the work wil undoutedly
be productive of -ood resuts. Every
supervisori road com.nssioner and
road overscer is invited to attend and
all ouLht to come if they can possibly
do so to exevaiic ideas and formlate
platis for the inproveient of' the pub
lic highways of the :tat.- Tit,
The road congres; is of great. im
portance and s-ould be attended bv
every supervisor and township co)
missioner in tjc S:ate. The pcoplh of
the Sotht0 have Ito i,e.1 ot tilc great
becelit consequent upon good roads.
Bat now is ani oppo.-:iune t !i for the
discussion and promu gation of nc
ideas onl ro.:ds. E:-pecciaiy as te
chain garg on our I uli:c highvays ix
a new fCalm e in our county govern
ment. Oar attention has ben dircet
ed to the iprovement. in our roads by
many of our ctizcas, and m1rc espe
cmlly by personal observation. The
work has beer. thoroughly done anld
the roads where the gang has ben
working are in fine fix. But t hey have
not i ct been testel by winter raiis
and heavy tra.veing.
We hope h matter of wo: k ng a
road m chine wil be discouried upon
by s:>me inttelient person who ha
!had praclical expierience wih the a
cli1ne. We !rar that uzess a h0zavy
coating of crushed ro k or large gravel
can be pia.d on some of our hills,
whichhave been wou r d and are now
in sp'e:ndid lix, t.it they -ill wash
badly in win:cr. This is impossible
I in some sectIons, for the rock and
gravel are not ahivays near enough to
be available; but in many instances
there 15 plenty Cf it.
The niat:er of thorough drainage is
a matter we;l worth careful debate,
i and is of as great importance as any
feature of road making. We have
better roads at preseut then we have
ever had and hope our county board
will a'l attend on the 21th.
From a letter written by Lev. J. 6un
dermlan, of Dimoadale, ic bh,, we are pe'r
mitted to make this extract: "1 ha~ve no

ag 3 Th31tuai Lifo Insurance Co., of Kentucky, one of the best known
insr:me r enin the south, and3 whose portrait appeairs above, says about how
p r. -.'c:ec viue Restored him to health when all else had failed.
'-I "s8C and 't0 I had two severe attacks of LaGrippe, about eight
mon.....i;cring between them, the last one ccnfining me to my bed for
four nr:tsandi attacking my nervous system, with such severity that my
life (w::s d-saiedl of. I had not slept for more than two months except by
the use of narcoties that stupeficd me, but gave rue no rest. For more than
eight long weeks I was only conscious of intense ment:d weakness, agonizing
bodily pain and the fact that I was hourly growing weaker.
When in this condition, it seemed like a providential circumstance that I
learncd of Dr. Miles' Restorative Nervine, for in two days after I commenced
using i , Ibc;;an to improve and in one month's time I was virtually cured,A
and very much to the surprise of everybody who knew of my condition; for
none of them believed I would ever recover. I have been in excellenf, health
since and have recommended your remedies to many of my friends, not one
of whom has failed to thank me for doing so, when I have met them again.
But the best remains to be told. Mrs. Hilton had suffered with severe
nervous t roubles for thirteen years and had been treated by several physi
cians, who stand high in their profession, without an~y perceptible improve
ment. Seeing how the Nervine had so effectually cured me, she commenced
using it and is now in excellent health. We never fail to recommend it."
