Os next importance, then, is how to treat it when it comes. Dr. Caldwell always was in favor of getting as close to nature as possible, hence his remedy for constipation, known as Dr: Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin, is a mild vegetable compound. It can not harm the system and is not habit forming. Syrup Pepsin is pleasanttasting, and youngsters love it. Dr. Caldwell did not approve of drastic physics and purges. He did not believe they were good for anybody’s system. In a practice of 47 years he never saw any reason for their use when Syrup Pepsin will empty the bowels just as promptly. Do not let a’ day go by without a bowel movement. Do not sit and hope, but go to the nearest druggist and get one of the generous bottles of Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin, or write ‘ Syrup Pepsin,” Dept. 88, Monticello.

La., states that, as a result of tloods. inert sand covers several miles of the finest and most beautifully developed farming land of the Mississippi delta, in the Scott district. Such deposits of inert sand are made when the current of tUe rushing waters is slightly slowed down, as when it meets with a comparatively small obstruction. The sand is composed largely of quartz particles which, since they are rock fragments, are heavier than the fertile silt and clay content naturally separates itself first, while the silt and clay are carried along in the water and deposited when the current is further slowed down. The sand, due to its quartz makeup, is infertile and consequently for years nothing can be grown in areas where it is deposited. To remove it would be too expensive. The charm of a bathroom is its spotlessness. By the use of Russ Bleaching Blue all cloths and towels retain their whiteness until worn out. —Adv.

Modern Roads Are Great History Links

jVlany Follow Routes of Highways Made Famous in Ancient Times. Washington.—Many motorists who speed along tne Old Post road out of Boston today are unaware that Paul Revere galloped along that same route on his famous ride. Nor do travelers on the Corniche road in the French Riviera always realize they are skimming over a sector of the Via Aurelia, a Roman “speedway” which Emperor Aurelins began more than two centuries before Christ was born. “Speedway” is entirely correct as an appellatiqn for those Roman roads, a National Geographic society bulletin points out. We have the word of Pliny, an early geographer, for it. Once a Roman emperor traveled 2(X) miles in 24 hours, in three relays of chariots. He sped at eight miles an hour. Pliny describes that record as “a wonderful thing and an instance of incredible celerity.” English Roads Once Roman Highways. “Many present-day roads are telltales of ancient history for they follow the routes of historic highways." continues the bulletin. “This is especially true of highways of modern Europe and even of the United States. Walling street and Stane street and Peddlars Way are survivors of the military roads with which Rome once adorned Britain. “Nobody knows who built the first road but remains have been found of a highway laid out by Cheops, builder of the Great Pyramid in Egypt. Babylon had three great highways and the first levying of tolls in the history of highways took place on one of these Babylonian routes. The Carthaginians were the most scientific road builders of ancient times, but the derails of their construction have been lost. “ ’All roads lead to Rome, was not a metaphor, but a fact during the supremacy of the Roman empire. Roads led to the imperial city from Dacia, present-day Transylania. on east, and Germany on the west. Another road branched from the very tip of what now is Spain. By the Roman laws the roads were free for the use of the public They could belong to one person or group ot persons and the emperors were charged with their maintenance. Soldiers, convicts and slaves kept them in repair. In some places service on the roads eliminated the payment ot taxes. The Romans were proud ot the emperors who built highways. They honored them with triumphal arches and medals and named tne highways after them, such as the Via Appia and the Via Aurelia. “The Via Appia was the Roman ‘Lincoln highway. Over it St. Paul the Apostle traveled, untroubled by toll collectors. it was begun by Caesar Appius Claudius in. 312 B. C., and when completed reached to Brindisi on the Adriatic coast. Modern traffic takes a new path, but the Via Appia still runs its course from Rome across the Alban hills. “The Romans had no road maps. They published itineraries listing the stations along the road with the distances between each station. Their nearest approaches to road maps were drawings of the stations with topographic features of the surrounding country. ( “When the Roman empire declined.

URGE ROOF MARKINGS TO MAKE FLYER’S JOB EASIER

Identification of Towns and Cities Would Be Big Help in Air Transportation. New York. —When Col. Charles A. Lindbergh made the statement that “We have much to do to make the pilot’s Job easier." he was referring to the lack of such essential aids to aviation as weather reporting services, uniform legislation, landing fields and roof markings. Among these requirements, each one of which is gradually being fulfilled, the last named—the identification of towns and cities by roof markings—represents one which calls for no official action, no particular expense and no particular effort, but merely the interest of some individual or organization in the community. Just as automobile traffic would be almost Impossible, without sign posts, so a system of air transportation is

road building did likewise. Charlemagne, emperor of the Franks, began a program of road construction, but after his death the development passed into a lethargy which was hardly disturbed during the Middle ages. “A quaint law was passed in England in the Middle ages relative to the muddy and rutted highways of the day. According to the law bushes and trees were felled for 200 feet on either side of a road to prevent the gentle inhabitants of the countryside from rushing out and attacking travelers! The first toll for the maintenance of English roads was passed by Edward 111 in the Fourteenth century. “The Incas ot Peru had the most extensive highway system in the New world. Their ‘Queen ot Roads, which connected Quito and Cuzco, was five times as long as the completed Via Appia.’ They were shrewder engineers than the Romans. The latter built their roads in straight lines, conquering all difficulties in their paths.

seriously handicapped without roof markings The danger Os mis-direc-tion not only increases the hazard to the air pilot, but decreases the efficiency of the airplane in the toss of time. Accordingly, the Daniel Guggenheim Fund for the Promotion of Aeronautics began, last fall, a comprehensive scheme for the identification of towns and cities throughout the country. The campaign covered some 7,500 communities representing those of between 1,000 and 50,000 population. Out of this total, to date about 2,000 have already been Identified by roof markings, about 3,000 report that the work is under way .and about 2.500 remain unaccounted for. On the whole the response has been enthusiastic, and with the advent of spring the fund has renewed its efforts so as to complete the undertaking. Government departments, civ-

The Incas curved and graded their highways to avoid ascents and forests. “The father of modern road building is Napoleon. He systematized the industry and appointed a body of engineers to supervise the construction of French roads. Other European countries and the United States were quick to perceive the value of improved highways. “Turkey, long closed to Western ways, is planning an asphalt-surfaced highway from Constantinople to Angora. Every - day news announcements bring in tidings of new roads being built in lesser known parts of the world. Automobiles demand an ever widening touring radius, and modern travelers no longer fear the mythological creatures which medieval people believed inhabited the unknown ? parts of the earth.” Chinaman Halts Gift of Million to Town Toronto.—One tone Chinese may block Arthur Cutten’s plan to present a million dollar hotel and golf course to his native city of Guelph. Cutten has purchased property for the hotel but the proprietor of the Grand case holds a nine-year lease and wants 550.000 to drop it. Cutten refuses to give that amount. It is up to the citizens of Guelph, the Chicago millionaire announced. He intimated that unless the city gets rid of the Chinese the million dollar gift might not be made. The golf course scheme is going ahead smoothly. With Chick Evans, Mr. Cutten inspected the site of the new 18-hole course. Evans declared it would make the finest scenic course on the continent. Announcement of Mr. Cutten’s million dollar gift to Guelph followed an earlier gift from another famous native son, Edward Johnson. The metropolitan opera tenor has provided a fund for free musical education of all children in the town.

Jail Now Creamery Allerton, 111.—Without any tenants for a number of years and with’ small likelihood of future use for which it was originally built, the local jail has been leased for a creamery station.

ic organizations and various commercial enterprises have all co-operated in the work, in the beginning, tbe fund, with the indorsement of tbe postmaster general, wrote to the postmasters of all the towns and cities on its list asking them to take tbe initiative in seeing that their communities were properly identified by roof markings. The selection of the building to be marked in a town is largely a matter of local conditions and availability. The ease with which the roof can be seen from the air is obviously the primary factor. “The roof selected should preferably be of tile, shingle, tin or other metal, or of slate.” the fund says. “A simple block letter tn chrome yellow with a dull background, preferably black, should be used in all signs whether painted directly on the root or not. White paint may be used instead of chrome yellow, but the Department of Commerce prefers the use of chrome yellow as its visibility Is slightly greater. The letters should be from ten to twenty feet in height and In no case less than six feet high."

Small “Republic” Bows to March of Progress A little French district near the Swiss border calls itself the “Republic of Sauget,” claiming that its freedom dates from feudal times. There are only about 500 Inhabitants of this “republic,” but they have a language all their own—a language that is as foreign to their French neighbors as to Americans. The people of the three small villages forming the “republic” call the people around them “French” as if speaking of foreigners. But a concession has at last been made to progress. Sauget, like her neighbor Switzerland, likes to have tourists. Heretofore the villagers have been accustomed to treat these visitors to the singing of the Sauget national air, but deciding that it would be more courteous to sing in an understandable language they have had the song translated into French. Os course all the Saugetiaus know French, for that is the only language taught in their schools.—Pathfinder Magazine. Fight Flu With Fog Flu sufferers may no^ - walk into a Pimlico (London) clinic and for a few pence leave the building, quite recovered. A “sprinkler” Is the latest remedial device. It generates a “fog.” a pleasant, fragrant, smoke-cloud which is said to be anything but pleasant to influenza germs. Twenty-five “sniffers” can be treated at one sitting in the “tog’’ chamber. but if you want to sniff in private you can have a cubicle all to yourself for two shillings or half-a-crown. Pine scents are sprayed into the room to make the “fog” extra pleasant. Everybody on the staff of the clinic —doctors, nurses, and clerical assistants—sniff the “fog" two or three times a week to keep the enemy at bay. Warship Prison for Boys To serve as a “floating prison” for delinquent boys, the scrapped Japanese warship, Musashi. has been rebuilt and put into action. The an nounced purpose is Io give the boys plenty of work in a healthy sea atmosphere while learning a useful occupation. Fifty boys, fourteen to twen-ty-three years old. are to be selected from the prisons of Japan, and while on the boat given six months’ in struction in the theory and practice of navigation, fishing and the making of fishing equipment, weather observation and kindred subjects.
