nervous troubles,
which continue
through life, have
their origin at this
time. If there be
pain, headache, backache, and nervous dis
turbances, or the general health not good,
the judicious use of medicine should be
employed. Dr. Pierce' Favorite Prescrip
tion is the best restorative tonic and nerv
ine at this time. The best bodily condition
results from its use. It's a remedy spe

IXDISTBIAL TOPICS.
A meeting of the Trunk Linos asso
ciation's general passenger agents Is
set for Friday to consider the agree
ment ou west-bound pussenger busi
ness. It Is announced In New York that u
meeting of the anthracite coul presi
dents has been called for Thursday of
this week, to consider the uuthructte
coal trade. A few of the presidents
talked over the sltuutlon on Saturday
and decided to call a meeting.
An official of the, Lehigh A'alley rail
road denies emphatically the current
reports that the company has sold good
stove coal at 12.75 per ton, free on board
at New York. He says that the lowest
price made nn good coal by the Le
high has been above 8:1 per ton, und
this statement is borne out by a circu
lar sent out within forty-eight hours.
In the trade it is stated that the low
prices am being made on the old lot of
chestnut coal with which the company
was left "saddled" under the McLeod
regime.
The sales agents are employing vu
rlous devices to cut prices. For exam
ple, first-class stove coal Is ottered In
Boston at $3.05 delivered, und If J3.1I",
Is allowed for the coal ut New York
but GO cents Is left for the water
freight. This is about 13 to 20 cents
below the market rate, und Indicates
that the seller is really cutting thu
price of coul to or below $3. Even
more unfavorable Instances are report
ed, all going to show thut the compa
nies are becoming more eager to sell
their product.
A bill Is pending In the Massachu
setts senate providing that on and after
Jan. 1. ISM, no railroad shall use In
moving tratllc between points in this
state any locomotive not equipped with
a power driving wheel brake und appli
ances for operating the train brake sys
tem, or run any train which has not a
suttiolent number of cars so equipped
with power as to enable the engineers
to regulate It. On and after Jan. 1,
1SHS, no cars shall be handled without
being equipped with automatic couplers
which can be worked without going be
tween cars.
The tonnage of the Huntingdon nnd
Broad Top railroad company lust week
was very heavy, reaching a total of
44.804 tons, or 15,718 tons more than for
tht corresponding week last year. This
brings the shipments for the year to
date up to 354, 355 tons, an increase,
compared with the same period last
year, of 29.7S9 tons. One of the most
encouraging features of the company's
weekly reports Is the steady Increase In
the shipments from the lirosd Top re
gion. Last week they were 11,94:1 tons,
ugalnst 6,0:19 tons In the same week lust
year; for the year to dute the Increase
is over 11.000 tons. President Janney,
referring to the heavy movement of bi
tuminous coal over his road, yesterday
expressed the opinion that It would con
tinue for some time to come, as there
was now a good demand for the prod
uct from manufacturing sources. Ho
also reported a freer movement of gen
eral merchandise tralllc.

A gpntlemnn who lives lit a nouthern
