So won derful was the effect, that in three days I felt like a new man. and today I am cured of all my troubles." Guar anteed at llartz & Tllemeyer's drug store; price 5 cents.

Of course it is ar gued in their behalf that they are ham pered by lack of funds. Most road dls tricts are woefully short of cash, many being bonded for bridge building to the limit of the law. Nevertheless, as a general rule the people who use the roads are paying for all they get. If there were defin ite promise of good returns on the in vestment means might be found to do ' rrnr work. Therefore exnerimental use of the split log drag would serve a two-fold purpose, to actually better the roads and to create a demand for more highway improvement. That the drag does what is claimed for it there is no longer room to doubt D. Ward King, the Missouri man who first 'applied the split log to the bot tomless roads of his own state is now engaged by the railroad companies tc give lectures in various places in ex planation of the method. He recently spoke at Canton, 111., and results from the farmers efforts despite the failure of the road commissioners to co-operate have been astonishing. Read what the Canton Register says about the transformation of the worst piece of road in the vicinity: "Every farmer in Fulton county, who has any doubt of the efficiency of the split log drag in making bad roads good, should see the strip of road in front of the premises of C. C. McCutch eu, just north of Canton, on which Mr. McCutchen has been experiment ing with a drag. This piece of road is about 50 rods in length. It has for years been notorious as the worst 50 rods of road in this part of the coun try. Time and time again it has been abandoned as impassable for vehicles. Yet today, after the recent heavy rains and notwithstanding the great amount of traffic to which it is subjected, it is the best 50 rods of road in this vicin ity. The Hues of demarkat'.on between the ends of this strip of road aud the remainder of the highway are plainly evident. Right up to its northern and southern boundaries the mud is loose and soft and ruts are numerous and deep. From end to end of the 50 rods of dragged road the dust is flying and 'he surface is firm and smooth. The astonishing result has been obtained by about a dozen applications of the drag remedy scattered over a period of about six months beginning last April. In each instance the dragging was done shortly after a rainfall. Twice since April the firm surface, established by the 40-cent drag and a single team, has DRAG A CHANCE COUNTY HIGHWAYS been torn up by a $500, six-horse road grading machine, and the good work had to be done over. Nevertheless the orst piece of road around Canton has been made the best, and the split log irag did it." REMEMBERED REV. QUINN People of Chatsworth Took up Big Col lection for Rock Island Pastor. Concerning the departure of Rev. J. J. Quinn from that city to take up his work as pastor of St. Joseph's church n this city the Chatsworth Plaindealer iays : "All day Sunday his residence was besieged with callers and the services on Sunday morning were attended by throngs of people. On Monday after noon, when he departed upon the train for his new charge, the station plat form was massed with people whose hearts were filled with regret, but at '.he same time whose best wishes for success and health accompany him to his new home. Some of his most ar dent admirers took it upon themselves to take up a collection and he was pre sented with a parting gift of $1,761.50. which is undoubtedly the largest col lection ever presented a retiring pas tor in this section of the state. "His people have loved and respected him. and every one in this community had the highest esteem aud consider ation for him, for he is a man of action, ability, eloquence and power."
