Health a Factor In Success The largest factor contributing to a man's success Is undoubtedly health It has been observed that a man is seldom sick when his bowels are reg- Is never well when they are For constipation you will find nothing quite so good as Tablets. They not only move the bowels but Improve the petite and strengthen the digestion are sold by all dealers. If any farmer in Orange will take a few minutes he will real- that he himself is each year an enormous tax or loll to bad loads; and it is a tax which not only does not yield any return at all, but does himself and his property a harm. Suppose we taken a man whose property is assessed at the proposed bond Issue If the maximum rate Is charged of cents en the worth of property his road tax for the year will be 13.50, no poll tax and no labor tax. At present his road tax Is 12.50 and days on the roads and proportion of the poll. Rating his labor at per day, he is now paying tax and part of his poll. the bond is- sue he will pay less tax than M is now paying. the present system he is paying what I have re- to above as the enormous tat to bad roads. Let us sec what it is. A man who owns worth of property usually has a team of two horses or mules. Say this man lives miles from market, and makes one trip a week during the year. Ha usually makes more than this. In going to market over the present sys- of roads he can only haul one- to one-fourth the amount which can haul over a good road. It I Mm one lo three hours longer to go and return from market than it would over a good road; so that en each trip we will say he loses throe hours of himself and team in going to market and carries only half a load. Thus he would have I to make two trips in order to get i the amount to market which he could i carry over a good road with one trip, and on the two trips he would lose I six hours. Now any man and team Is worth at least cents hour. Then six hours lost at cents an hour is which each farmer practically loses in each trip when he markets his produce. Averaging his trips during the year at would make bis tax to bad roads which Is about what the average farm paying tax on worth of property loses during the year In ac- i time of himself and his team, loss of time In not being able to carry a full load, to say nothing cf the wear and tear on his team and harness and vehicle, the lack of op- of attending church when desired, the impossibility of his reaching school regularly, and lack of opportunity for carrying on the social intercourse which is necessary to the life of every man being. I Another tax he pays to bad roads is that In case of severe illness it Is practically impossible to obtain j a doctor in any reasonable time, so his family is constantly running a risk of losing their lives in cases ; of emergency because of the I cal impossibility of getting a there within a reasonable time over the poor roads. All these latter phases cannot be reckoned in dollars and cents. If you own less worth of taxable property you can divide the above sum and get what you are paying to the bad roads. If you own more than worth of property, you can multiply the above and get your tax to bad roads. you going to submit to this tax long- because it does not come in ac- pennies out of your pocket It comes out of you, out of your team, out of the net earnings of your farm, and in reality out of your pocket.

It was not merely to speak of their mercantile success that prompts this article, but to tell of some other things these boys have found time to do to advance Norfolk. Not a great while ago It was seen that a trans- Hue was needed up one the adjacent rivers to open a trade territory for the city. Mr. C.
