. The great project of connecting the

be kept in mind, and the tariff should
not be revised-unless a distinct injury

a cranifviiig Announcement..
One of the pleasant and most reassur
>-*Olng#Ufc>e»tWtof IftWrning business is prt-
when a great employing corpora;
"iiQi. finds itself a position to make, a
general advance in wages before it is
asked, or perhaps even thought of, by
the employesr. The announcement by
the Pennsylvania railroad of a 10 per
cent advance to all its employes draw
ing less than $2,400 yearly salary is in
every way a grateful surprise and its
happy aspects are thrown into the
* stronger relief by its contrast with the
dispute between the anthracite railroads
ami ti>eir men.
The Pennsylvania rtwlroad has been
enjoying high prosperity of late. And
•one of the aspects 111 which that pros
perity is deserved is in this ready
nition of the corporation that one of the
first uses of this heyday of activity is to
give its emploves a share of it. Grant
that there may be calcplatipn in this;
but the calculation which conciliates
wage-earners by increasing their pay
before the increase is asked is ; pf the
most praiseworthy variety. There are
plenty of contrasts to this course in
former industrial history, but one of
the most hopeful signs of th£ present
day is that these voluntary increases
have taken place of lata years in more
/feasts ' than ever known before —Dis
patch. •
-. r . Kailroad Note*.
From Philadelphia comes the state
ment that' the Pennsylvania railroad
will spend $200,000,000 in the next two
years in improvements on the various
properties of the system. While that
is an enormoub sum, it is certain that
the;pompany has planned a great out
lay of money, and eqnally certain that
a vast sum must be spent to make the
road capable of handling the traffic of
. .faced.. The congested state of freight
shipments all over the couutry leaves
no further doubt that the great work
of the railroads is still ahead of them.
In spite of the millions that have been
laid out in increasing facilities in the
last 10 years tha situation steadily
grows worse, for the country is de
veloping faster than the roads are able
tp keep up. It is reasonable to believe
1 fenfir-logical ruinprs about new
roads inWestern Pennsylvania and
everywhere else, because the expand
. Jng commerce of the country renders
greutty increased railroad capacity ab
solutely 'essential.—Pittsburg Times.

There will be a special session of Con

given out last Saturday to the Wiscon

great labor saver. Bat the phraseology
familiar to political campaigns about
the sacredness of the ballot and the

CHILDISH COMFORT.
"Never Mind, Mamma, Baby
Loves You.'"
But the childish voice is almost un
heeded. The wife and mother has come
to a place where love cau;.ot comfort
her, where even the voice and words of
love are so blent with her own mUery
that they seem to increase it.
Imagine a magnificent orchestra play
ing in a factory nmid the ring of ham
mers and the rattli and groaning of ma
chinery. The discords would dominate
the harmony and the harmony itself
merge into discords. That is the way it
is with all the music of love when a
woman is wrenched and racked by pain.
It seems to become part of the very dis
cord of her life.
When the cause of this suffering is
■ought It will almost always be found
to be womanly disease. The throbbing
head, the aching back, and the dragging
down feeling are but symptoms of a
disordered and diseased conttition of the
delicate womanly organism. WWn this
fact is understood the one thing for the
weak aud sick woman to do is to look
for a cure of the disease which cauies
her misery.
WHKRE SHALL SUB TURN
for healing? If a woman were lost In
a western prairie and found several paths
which might lead to safety, she would
take the well-trodden path in preference
to the one which showed faint signs or
travel. Why not the same ill sickness?
There is a road to womanly health
which has been traveled by hundreds of
thousands of women. Read what %on>«
of these women say.
" I take great pleasure in recommend
ing Dr. Pierce's medicines to other suf
fering women," writes Mrs. Mary Adams,
of Grassycreek, Ashe Co., N. C. "I had
internal trouble very badly until it re
sulted in ulcers of the uterus. I was
troubled with it so that I never slept a
night for seven weeks. The doctors
said I could not be cured, but I com
menced taking Dr. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription and 4 Pleasant Pellets.' Af
ter taking two bottles I could sleep all
night, and after taking six bottles of
' Favorite Prescription' and two of
' Golden Medical Discovery ' and three
vials of ' Pltasant Pellets,' my case was
cured. I thank God and your medicine
for saving my life."
" Words cannot tell what I suffered for
thirteen years with uterine trouble and
dragging-down pains through my hips
and back," writes Mrs. John Dickson, of
Grenfell, Assiniboia Dist., N. W. Terr.
I can't describe the misery it w»s to be
on my feet long at a time. I could not
eat 11' or sleep. Often I wished to die.
Then I saw Dr. Pierce's medicines ad
vertised and thought I would try them.
Had not taken one bottle till I was feel
ing well. After I had taken five l»ottles

of 'Favorite Prescription' and one of
' Golden Medical Discovery' I was like
a new woman. Could eat and sleep and
do all my own work. I would entreat
of any lady suffering from female weak
ness to give Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre
scription a fair trial, for I know the ben
efit she will receive."
Mrs. Mattie Venghaus, of Tioga, Han
cock County, 111., writes: "I had been
sick for seven years, not in bed but just
dragging myself around. At last I took
three bottles of Dr..Pierce's Favorite
Prescription and five of Hidden Med
ical Discovery,' and was well. It is im
possible to describe in words the good
these medicines did me. No praise is
too high for Dr. Pierce's medicines."
WOMAN'S CONFIDENTS JUSTIFIED.
The woman who begins the use of Dr.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription is justified
in feeling that she has taken the first
step in the path to perfect womanly
health. All womanly diseases medically
curable yield to the healing power
this wonderful remedy. It establishes
regularity, dries disa
greeable and weakening
drains, heals inflamma
tion and ulceration and
cures female weakness.
The periodic headache,
the distressing backache,
and exhausting bearing
down pains are cured
permanently with thi
cure of womanly dis
eases by "Favorite Pro
scription." Mothers find
in this medicine the best
preparative for mater
nity. It' gives abundant
strength and makes the
baby's advent practically
painless.
Women suffering from
chronic forms of disease
are invited to consult Dr.
Pierce by letter, free.
All letters are privately
read and privately an
swered and womanly
confidences are guarded
by the same strict pro
fessional privacy which
is observed by Dr. Pierce and his staff in
personal consultation at the Invalids'
Hotel and Surgical Institute, Buffalo,
N. Y. Address all correspondence to
Dr. R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y.
In a little over thirty years, assisted
by his staff of nearly a score of physi
cians, Dr. Pierce, chief consulting physi
cian to the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical
Institute, Buffalo, N. Y., has trcnted and
cured hundreds of thousands of sick and
suffering women.
There is no similar offer of free con
sultation by letter or free medical advice,
having behind it in institution such 39
the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Insti
tute, Buffalo, N. Y., with its fine equip
ment and skilled medical staff. The free
consultation by letter, offered by Dr.
Pierce, puts it into every sick woman's
power to have the opinion of a specialist
on her condition—a specialist whose
great success in the treatment and cure
of womanly diseases, is in itself an en
couragement to every «ck woman. Of
the hundreds of thousands of women
treated by Dr. Pierce, ninety-eight per
cent, have been permanently cured.
" Favorite Prescription " contains no
alcohol and is entirely free from opium,
cocaine and all other narcotics.
If you are persuaded to try Dr. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription because it has
cured other women, do not allow the
dealer to foist on you a less meritorious
medicine which he claims to be "just as
good." There is no motive for such
substitution except the little more profit
made by the dealer on the sale of the
less meritorious preparation.
