INDUSTRIAL JOTTINGS.
Changes the Reading Consolidation
Will Bring About-Tho D., L.
ct W. Board for Today.
The extension of the Philadelphia
and Heading railroad system to
Seranton. which will soon bu wit
nessed, thiough the Heading's pur
chase of the Central Railroad of New
Jersey, l looked upon with more than
passing Intel est by those who make
a ntudy of the great problem of
trelght, coal and passenger transpor
tation. It will trally moan much more to
the city ot Seranton than can possibly
be Imagined at this cany date. Al
ready airaugeincnts are under way for
opening up the trnflU: business over
the mud during the coming summer,
and the thiough routes to Philadel
phia and the South will afford facili
ties for trawlers In this section which
hcretofoif have not been anticipated.
In view of tho Inevitable consolida
tion of forces which will follow the
merging of the two roads, employes
whose heads arc liable to be dropped
in the basket are skirmishing for
other berths which will afford them an
opportunity to earn a living. The
latest. Instance of this fact comes in
the announcement that W. H. Miner,
of New York, chief auditor ot freight
receipts for the CVntf.il Railroad of
New Jeisev, luis secured a position
with the Atlas Cement company, and
In consequent e he has retired from
railroad won;. Other retirements are
expected In the course of the next
few months.
Thus far, no change is apparent at
this end of the road, and the otll
clals and employes do not anticipate
any changes as, this being a terminal,
It will not bo molested for some time
at least. The change will more or less
affect the heads of departments at the
headquarters of the respective com
panies. V., L. & W. Board for Today.

TAKINGJHANCES.
Pcoplo Who Will Loam Only
by a Perilous Personal
Experience,
As a nitc experience is profitable
only to the individual who obtains it.
When the aged man tries to save youth
from mistakes such as he made, the
youth smiles to himself: "The idea
of that old fossil thinlcinjj that an up-to-date
young man is going to make
mistakes.'' It is n peculiar trait of
human nature that each man thinks he
is a little smarter than the others, and
that he will succeed where others failed.
"Oh, yes," says Smith. "I know that
poor Joues got capsized in the rapids,
but Jonca never was a good hand at the
pAildle. It's a pity people like Jonts
will take such chances." And he smil
ingly launches his canoe to follow Jones
ilike in his feat and in his failure.
"THi: KXTKtiME OP FOU.Y.
The most foolhardy man who ever
risked his life, or the most infatuated
gambler who ever risked his fortune, is
a sage compared with the man who
attempts to get the licst of Nature.
The foolhardy, man may succeed. The
gambler may win. But the man who
takes chances with Nature is bound to
lose. If the obituaries of teus of thou
sands who are cut down annually in
life's prime were truly written death
would not be attributed to this or that
form of disease, but to an attempt to
evnde the necessary laws of health.
The weak spot fn the modern uiau is
his stomach. It is in disease of the
stomach that many of the maladies
bejjin which carry off the busy men of
the day. The seed of disease once
planted iu the stomach grows and
spreads like some climbing parasite
about a tree. It throws out a t.ndril
aliout the heart and presently another
which grips the lungs, and others uain
which take hold of kidneys and liver.
Then suddenly the man is smitten by
heart disease br lung tliscase ; or suc
cumbs to some malady of kidneys or
liver. Tlie real seat of disease is the
stomach. And one of tho reasons why
the diseases of the other organs often
fail of a cure is that the treatment
ignores the stomach, and attempts to
treat directly the other organs, whose
diseases are only symptoms of (Hsciim;
of the stomach and other organ', of
digestion and nutrition
THURP.'S TI.KNTY OP FRrtOP
of the soundness of the proposition that
diseases of other organs remote from
the stomach which are caused by dis
ease of the stomach must be cured
through the stomach, and, iu fact, can
not be cured in any other way. The
best croof iu the world is that Doctor
DEADLOCK IS STILL ON.

Pierce' Golden Medical uiscovery, a
stomach and blood medicine, cures dis
eases of heart, lungs, liver, kidneys,
etc., by curing diseases of the stomach
nnd digestive and nutritive systems.
"For six long years I suffered with
my liver, kidneys, and indigestion,
which baffled the best doctors in our
country," writes Mr. E. L. Ransell, of
Woolsey, Prince William Co., Va, "I
suffered with my stomach and back for
a long time ami after taking a quantity
of medicines from three doctors, I grew
so bad I could hardly do a tlay's work.
Would have dcathdikc pains in the side,
nnd blind spells, and thought life was
hardly worth living. I decided to con
sult Dr. R. V. Pierce nnd his staff of
physicians. They said my case was
curable and I was greatly encouraged.
I began taking Dr. Pierce's Golden
SIcdic.il Discovery and Tlcasant Pel
lets,' as advised. Before I had taken
half of the second bottle I began to feel
relieved. I got six more bottles and used
them, antl am nappy to say
I owe my life to Dr. Pierce
and his medicines. These
words are truths, as I live,
so if this testimonial can
lie used in any way to be of
licncfit you need not hesi
tate to use it. I shall stand
for the Invalids' Hotel and
Surgical Institute as long
as life lasts."
DON'T DHI.AV.
Disease never leaps on a
man like a lion from am
bush and strikes him down
at a blow. However sud
denly a man may lie
stricken and however
deadly the disease, the
time was when it was a
little thing, easy of con
trol. If you arc suffering
from indigestion, dyspep
sia, or any form of stom
ach "trouble," don't put
off the proper treatment.
"Golden Medical- Discov
ery" will cure diseases of
the stomach and organs
or ingestion ami nutrition
at any stage, but the
cure will be quicker the earlier it is
begun.
"For twelve long months I suffered
untold misery," writes Mrs. Mollic Col
gate, of Randolph, Charlotte Co., Va.
" No tongue could express the pain that
I endured before I commenced taking
Dr. Pierce's medicine. I was not able
to do anything at all. Could not eat
anything except bread and tea or if
I did the top of my head hurt so it
seemed it would kill me; with alt that
I could do it would burn like fire, but
uow since taking ' Golden Medical Dis
covery ' I can eat a little of almost any
thing I want and can do a good day's
work as well as anybody can. Am bet
ter than I have been for years. I think
your medicine is the licst that ever was
made, for it is the only thing that ever
did me any good. I tried many other
kinds, but none did me any good but
your 'Golden Medical Discovery and
'Favorite Prescription.' I can never
praise them too highly to any one who
suffers as I did."
Sick people ara invited to consult Dr.
Pierce bv letter, free. All correspond
ence held as strictly private and sa
credly confidential. Write therefore
without fear as without fee to Dr. R. V.
Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y.
There is no alcohol in "Golden Med
ical Discovery," and it is entirely free
from opium, cocaine, and other narcotics.
Do not allow a dealer for the sake of
making a little more profit to foist on
you a substitute as "just as good" aa
"Golden Medical Discovery." There is
no other medicine so good for you.
