He has abolished the "complaint book." which used to be a feature of Italian railway stations. Instead complaints must be written on stamped sheets, which may be pur chased ut the station and dropped in n box provided for that purpose.

MANY THINK! when the Creator said to woman, "In sorrow shalt thou bring forth children," that a curse was pro nounced against the human race, but the joy felt by every Mother when she first presses to her heart her babe, proves the contrary. Danger and suffering lurk in the pathway of the Expectant Mother, and should bo avoided, that she may reach the hour when the hope of her heart is to be real ized, in full vigor and strength.
