Wakofulnoss antS
InsaitiMitouM
The habit of dining out at night Is
bound to bring about a great deal
of suffering. The stomach Is over
loaded without the necessary activ
ity to aid the digestion. The
tossing about at night and sleepless
ness are the Immediate results.
Dyspepsia and Indigestion are sure
to follow In Its course.
One glassful of Johann Hoff's
Malt Extract taken before retltlng
will remove all this trouble. It will
aid the proper assimilation of the
food and produce a healthy, sound
sleep.

her children depends almost entirely upon
her general health, ami particularly upon
the health and strength of the delicite and
impottant organs that bear the burdens of
maternity. A woman has no right to dis
regard her own health, comfort, ease and

condemn her children to a life of suffering

IN AND AROUND
THE COAL MINES
NEW TUNNELS DRIVEN AT THE
BABYLON COLLIERY.

Syndicate, is Engaging Extensive
ly in tho Coal Wnshery Business
in Luzerne County Changes in
the Corps of Mine Toicmen Em
ployed by tho Pennsylvania Coal
Company at Its Collieries.
Among tho Improvements recently
made at the Bain Ion colliery nt Dur
yea Is tho driving of three new tunnels
which have been opened In tin- moun
tnlniilde back of tho breaker, the coal
from which is hauled by a fifteen-ton
locomotive over three miles of track.
The nenrost tunnel is (LOO feet from the
bleaker nnd tho furthest 4,000 feet.
The thiee miles of ttack are necessary
owing to tho round-about course taken,
the elevation of one of tho tunncU be
ing 225 feet nbove that of the head of
the shaft, where the coal Is dumped.
One tunnel cuts the Clark vein at a
distance of f51 feet from the opening,
one cuts tho Marcy vein 200 feet from
the opening, and tho third starts at the
out-cropping of tho Clark vein. One of
the tunnels is ventlluted by meaiw of
a rock plane driven from the shaft
workings, another Is ventilated with a
' twelve-foot fan, operated by com
pressed air, and the third has natural
cntllatlon. These three tuni'els In
crease the capacity of the colliery be
tween fOO and eCO tons per day.
BUYING CULM HEAPS.
A syndicate from Philadelphia Una
bought the large culm pile owned by
the Raub Coal company at Luzerne.
Dining the past few months this syn
dicate has purchased several of the
larg-i culm banks throughout the Wy-
the Haddock colliery at Lu7eri.e.
A small bleaker is now being built
through which the culm from the new
ly purchased pile will e run, as will
al.10 that from the Waddell breaker,
which previously has been dumped on
the Raub culm pile. For some tlmt
the syrdleato enteitained the idea of
propelling the machinery In their new
breaker by water power from the creek
tlmt runs near by. Tho Idea was soon
ubnndcned, however, owing to tho
weight of the culm In tho elevators be
itiff thought too heavy for the current
of water.
The washer will be ready to com
mence operation about the last part of
November and will employ several
men.

Comfort for Women.
Sometime ago Pullman's Palace Car
company built three parlor cars for the
H. and O.'s New i'ork trains and the
adlcal departure from other cars of
this character lay In the toilet room
for ladles which was eight feet In
length.
Recently the came company built
eight new sleepets for the New York
St. Louis line of the J), and O. and tho
designer of the enrs has evidently been
Impelled by the popularity of the ladies
lettting mom In the parlor cais to
Clio to the ladles a vast deal more
spnci than they over had before In
sleeping cars. '
Thee now cars arc bald by the
Pullman people to bo the finest ever
turned out and tho ludies retiring room
Is exceedingly commodious, and con
tains, besides other toilet necessities,
ti dresser with a long pier glass. The
cars are finished In vermllllon wood
decorated with inlaid mnraueiry work
and the upholstery on the backs and
seats la entirely new and different from
any heietofore used, being n sort of a
moquette with a dark green border
and a center pattern of bright color. A
similar design of ornamentation has
been npplled to tho celling, giving the
car an urnheaqw effect. Thev are
nlso fiupplled with nil the modern appli
ances such ns wide vestibules, untl
telescoplng device, ulr pressure water
system and are lighted with Plntsch
gas. A very pleasing effect is obtained
by tho oval windows of opnleHcoiit
glass, the first that has been uted In
tho construction of sleeping cars.
