March 4, 1903: “Having been
troubled with Lumbago at differ
ent times and tried one physician
after another, then different oint

altogether. So I tried once more,
and got a bottle of Ballard’s Snow
Linament, which gave me almost
instant relief. I can cheerfully re
commend it, and will add my name
to your list of former sufferers.”

One of the strongest arguments
in favor of the Brownlow road im
provement measure is that based
on the river and harbor appropri
ations. Legislation of this kind
rests on a half century of preced
ents. and no one seriously thinks
of objecting to it. The only ques
tions seriously discussed when a
river and harbor bill comes up in
Congress are the amount to be
voted and for what particular
works of improvements the money
shall be spent. The general poli
cy is thoroughly established. Con
gress has voted for improvements
of this kind during the past fifty
years more than four hundred
millions of dollars, and now an an
nual appropriation of twenty mil
lions would be looked upon as
quite moderate. Then why
shoulden't the government aid in
making good country roads? They
are of far greater benefit than riv
er and harbor improvements.
Your local paper does more than
any tiling else to give your town
character abroad. If you would
come to our exchange table and
pick up a poorly supported paper,
without liberal advertising patron
age, you would decide at once that
it was from some small village or
lifeless town. If you should pick
up one full of live advertisements,
you would say the business men of
the town were full of snapund en
terprise, and it was a lively town.
Moreover, advertising will draw
custom that would otherwise be
attracted elsewhere. Your local
newspaper has therefore an in
fluence iu giving your town char
aeter, and in drawing trade to it,
that should not be overlooked, and
the business men of a town owe it
a liberal support, and they are
standing in their own light when
they fail to advertise in it. The
poorly patronized paper gives the
town a had reputation abroad.
