Messrs. Fisk & Hatch have just issued pamphlet
supplementary to their circular of August, to the
bondholders and creditors of the Chesapeake and
Ohio Railroad Company. This statement gives the
cost, equipment, present condition, and future
prospects of the road and should be read by every
person interested IN the property The earnings OF
the road show favorable increase, and should the
bondholders and creditors at once acceed to the
proposition of the Company in regard to funding
their claims there IS but little doubt but that the
western connection to Cincinnati will be completed,
and the road placed upon sound financial basis.
This last statement has been carefully made, and
covers every point ON which any bondholder or
creditor can desire information and is trustworthy
in every particular. The balance-sheet of the Com
pany gives the following as the exact amount OF
stock mortgage and floating debt:

You would like to be round and rosy
having spent the evening socially. Cheer
fulness and content are the best friends
of healthfulness. Sleep in a pure at
mosphere and in room into which the
sun has shone through the day. Don't
be afraid of the night air, for there is no
other air at night, and you would GER
tainly die before morning if you did not
breathe it avoid draughts and dampness;
sleep as long as you can and get up as
soon as you wake, if you feel rested.
Drink all the pure cold water you can
swallow first, and ride or walk in the
open air for half an hour; then eat
breakfast of Graham bread, baked sweet
apples with cream, or some other fruit,
with soft, fresh boiled egg, or a bit of
beefsteak and baked potato, and drink
a glass of new milk, if you like it. Enjoy
what you are doing, either for itself or
what it will bring you. Breathe as much
pure air as possible; bad food and pure
air will make flesh faster than impure air
and good food. For dinner, eat roast
beef or mutton, or rare steak, with bread,
potatoes and all vegetables that are rel
ished, dessert of plenty of ripe fruit,
with cream and sugar, but without pastry
or cake. If tired, rest little before din
ner, and take short nap after it. Don't
work hard enough to produce excessive
nprsniratiOn If Won can helm IT. ar until
you feel very much exhausted. For sup
per, eat oat meal porridge, cracked wheat,
or Graham mush, with cream and fruit,
and fresh roll; or, if you don't feel
hungry, take glass of milk and eat
nothing. Drink little tea or coffee, or
none at all. Bathe every day to keep
the skin clean and in surprisingly short
time you will grow plump and light
hearted. But remember, you must laugh
to grow fat-Nil,oaukse Magazine.

How to Become a Landowner.

A letter from Kansas City to the New
York Graphic says:
How can any person secure land in
the West Z?
Simply this way. There are several
land offices in each State. In Kansas
they are at Salena, Topeka, Wichita,
Concordia, Cawker City, etc. The Com
missioner of the General Land Office in
Washington will inform anyone where
the rest are.
An ex-soldier can send 50 and power
of attorney to any land-agent, who will
set apart 160 acres of land, and wait six
months for the soldier to come in and
claim it.
Any ambitious man can own 4S0 acres
of land in five years at a cost of 1928 in
this manner:
FrSt-He goes to the land agent,
pays ga fees, and takes free home
stead of 100 acres.
Secondly paying 5000 in money he
can buy (pre-empt), having 30 months
to make his payment, 100 acres.
Third-He can plant 40 acres of tim
ben under the Timber act, pay $14 in
fees, and the State will allow him an
extra 100 acres.
So he has now 4S0 acres of land
(prairie), which, as soon as plowed,
is worth go per acre-and which will
be worth $25 per acre-$12 ,000-in five
years
Young man, come West !

THE BONDAGE OF DRINK.

You think love Il II this nerveless hand
Could gain immortal strength this very hour
I'd sweep the hellish trafhc from the land,
And crush its bbshting, maddening, nightmare
Yea, now, with all my latest, dying breath,
Ill curse the thing that drags me down to death.
Love it7 Ioath it! Yet I drink and drink,
And hate my bondage with losthly hate,
And hate myself as through the town stink
The pledge? No, no! Too late-too late
Too late There's no release for me but death.
It's bad enough to drink; but not to drink
Doth such train of CHASTITY horrors wake
As IN one hour would leave me Dead think.
All, keep away, ye fiends, for PHYS sake
The very thought Of them affects my brain.
My end will be when they shall come again.
Love run? I'd love 10 hold my head up high
And breathe Gods air free aud fearless man,
And look with undimmed eyes on earth and sky,
With steady nerve 10 do and head to plan
I'd love to grappe trials as they come
In manly fashion, brave and strong. Love rum?
If only could come into some land
Where no drink is, God knows how willingly
I'd fight those dreadful torments of the damned
That clutch the soul of him who would be free.
But marshal up those grizzly shapes of woe
To fall again as twice before? No, no!
All, If might have known how it would be
In those old college days so wild and gay,
When first drank in youthful revery
How easy then 10 put the cup away!
A mothers hope and JOY was till then
Now see me tremblng-ha! Those eyes again
Back, fiery eyes, to hell, where ye beongi
I'll drink we down--what, blood? Drink blood
Help! Help! They come, hideous, deviiisi
Back, get ye back They'll toss me in the hood {!
Long, crooked hands crawling in my hair
Is this the end? Ha, ha Too late for prayer
