In 1872 your Vegetine was recommended to me;
and, yielding to the persuasions of friend, con-
scented TO try IL. Al the time was suffering from
general debility and nervous prostration, superin-
duced by overwork and irregular habits. Its won
derfu strengthening and curative properties seemed
20 affect my debllitated system from the first dose
and under its persistent use rapidly recovered,
gaining more than usual health and good feeling.
Since then have not hesitated to give vegetne my
most unqualified Endorsement as being safe, sure,

A New and safe Light for Rail.
road Cars.

A gentleman OF Hartford, CT, has 10.
vented . new method OF lighting railway
cars, the principle Of which is very sim
pie, very eficacious, and very safe. As
spplied 10 railway cars it is as follows:
Outside Of the car, upon the end Of the
roof, Is & kerosene lamp. Leading from
il to the other end 10 tube, say 3 foot
and half in diameter, through which
the light Is thrown by q reflector placed
behind the flame. This tube runs along
the roof, next to the ventilAting deck and
at several points it is '"tspped" for light.
At these points s reflector in the tube
sends the light into and across the car,
through holes similar 70 the yentilsting
holes, and when the light Is once inside II
Is sent down TO the seats by other reflect
ors placed inside. Upon the other side
Of the car is similar tube, with the light
at the other end, By this arrangement
the passengers escape the dissgreeable
smell Aud smoke Of The lamps now used,
and get q very zoe light, and are pre-
served from danger by-fre il the car
meets with an accident.
The whole apparatus, except the auxil.
iary reAectors, is outside the car, and the
lamp is surrounded By = fre-proof safe,
and ingenious mechanism, such that IL
the cat is upse, or iu balance disturbed
BY derailment or collision, the fame is
instantly extinguished. This makes it
very desirable for use in postal cars, for
usually when they meet with accident
their contents are burned.
The tube conducts the lightso admirably

the attention Of railroad men. Is cost

lamp. II certainly can be done with two.

sented some statistics with regard 10

by this increase, which took place

for nearly half century has employed
an average OF four hundred operatives in

Since 1885 the product per hand has
more than doubled. Since that time the
hours Of lsbor have been lessened, and
yet 10 the last twenty yeArs the wages
