Michigan I'hralclaB rolnta Oat the
Beaeflta aid Dlaadvaatacra to Man
kind of Flac and Bad Road Value
ot Trees Along- Koadnidea.
The medical man in pioneer days
was many times one of the first to
blaze the path, to lay out the road or to
plan the highways, and It is a fact that
in modern times lie is one of the first
to lend his knowledge and aid to fur
ther the movement of good roads, says
Ir. E. B. Smith, secretary of the
Michigan College of Medicine and Sur
gery, in the Auto Advocate and Coun
try Rouds.
Many years ago Michigan possessed
a man of sterling worth, broad intel
lect and keen observation for the re
quirements of the people of his locality
and the needs of good roads and the
reclaiming of ninny acres for new set
tlers and clearing up of the cause of
much sickness and death. Dr. Henry
Wyuiau in about 1S44 was a member
of the legislature from Lenawee coun
ty. The district was a great cotton
wood swamp. Miliaria und typhoid fe
ver prevailed every month of the year.
Through his efforts in the legislative
body Dr. Wyninu secured appropria
tions for digging a ditch a considera
ble distance, across Lenawee and well
into Monroe. They say that at that
time logs were felled, and over the
logs was thrown the dirt from the
ditch, which contained considerable
clay.
CALVIN J. STOUT DEAD.

Mr. Stout was horn and reared in

carpenter.
The funeral' serviefs were held

FINE KOADS MEAN GOOD HEALTH.
nny other iart of the I'nited States
than in Lenawee and Monroe counties.
So 1 believe that as good roads mean
pood Urniuinire that is. drainage of
the surface of the road, drainage under
the ro.id and drainage along the sides
of the road so we have gaod health to
thost? Hying along the roads construct
ed after thin maimer.
Man is ko constructed that wheu lie .
walks, runs or juiniis the jar is lessen-1
ed and entirely spoilt before it reaches
tissue or vital organs that are unable ,
to withstand it. This is so on accouut
of the arch iu the foot and on account .
of the elasticity of that arch. This
arch Is i. more i.erfeet one than you
builders can make. Between each ,
Joint are lluid buffers, and running j
from one bone to) tuiotlu r, keeping the ,
Joints frjm spreading and to aid tliem
to swing, are guy ropes that assume a
las or tense condition, as reiuired. and
bet weiu each hone iu the spinal col
umn are mattresses that make it pos
sible for one to jump from a consid
erable height, and, striking upon the .
feet, the force of the blow is cur-
1 from -part to part of the Isjdy and ,
the force spent upon these resisting ,
bodies until it is sieiit before reaching j
the brain. I hruuly believe that tlie .
rough, bad roads of our country are no (
small factor as a cause of the large j
number of nervous and insane cases j
that our rural districts supply. I
Catarrhal conditions are aggravated
bv the dust from the roads, the decay- i
ing vegetable life along the roadside
bleeds disease, and the stagnated pool f
is a fertile held for low forma or ani
mal life. From these the air Is pollut
ed, aud man has only to be found in a
condition to be infected. It Is too had
that these stngnaut pools cannot cry
out to the passerby: "Unclean: un
clean :" If this were S3 you and I
could turn out of the way and pass by.
Healthy plant life along the roadside
is conducive to good heiilth In man. It
helps give unto man that which man
needs for his growth and for Iris living.
What is pleasing to the eye gives
health. That is one reason why tne
tourist aud travelers peek other climes.
The eye Is delighted. It Is pleased.
That helps the body. Every special
sense Is helped, and so the great body
Is made more healthy. The nose smells,
and we are pleased or displeased. We
ore satisfied, even gratified, or we nre
disgusted and sickened. The ear hears
the sweet songs, the mind becomes
Joyous, and the heart beats stronger
and fuller, and we are made to feel the
Joy of exhilaration at the pleasant sur
roundings; we are made to feel that It
Is good to live. The keen sense of
taste begins to manifest Itself. The
appetite Is sharpeued, the stomach
does better work, und the man begins
to feel his power and strength and
fsels that It is good to be here.
I can sar to you farmers, I can say
to you men outside of the cities and j
towns, that good roads nre your salva
tion, your health. I can say that that
which Impr-ivf! yniir everylny I'fe and
that which Improve - yocr wniks T.i life
make you live longer, make yon live
easier, make you live a little bette.
and that which nutkes ynu live linger,
easier and better makes It passible for
you to diO easier.
