Evening Republican, Volume 19, Number 270, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 13 November 1915 — THE NEXT BEST THING TO THE PINE FOREST FOR COLDS IS— [ARTICLE]

THE NEXT BEST THING TO THE PINE FOREST FOR COLDS IS—

Dr.' Bell’s Pine-Tar-Honey, which goes to the very root of cold troubles. It clears the throat and gives relief from that clogged and stuffed feeling. The pines have ever been the friend of man in driving away colds. Moreover, the pine-honey qualities are peculiarly effective in fighting children’s colds. Remember that a cold broken at the start greatly removes the possibility of complications. 25c. (1)

Attorney Moses Leopold, who was in Ohio last week on business saw some brick highways and believes they are the best thing. They cost about $20,000 a miel, however, which would make a road through Jasper county, north and south, coSt about $400,000. In Ohio the roads Mr. Leopold saw are 16 feet wide with a concrete curbing the same height of the brick and there is a dirt drive 8 feet wide on each side of the brick, making 32 feet in width. The brick is set in a concrete grouting just as Washington street was when it was paved. Mr. Leopold favors the construction of permanent highways and this will doubtless eventually be done, but it is hardly probable that 10 per cent of the people in Jasper county would support a proposition for the construction of a $400,000 highway.
