Thousands of Americans seek health
during the summer months by quail
ing the crystal waters of some fashion,
able springs, while just as many suf-
ferers remain at home through sheer
necessity. The Baden.Baden springs,
OF Germany, are perhaps the most
noted in the world. The water Of these
springs is aperient, that is, 1t acts gem
tly aud pleasantly upon the stomach,
bowels and kidneys. The active prinS
ciples OF these celebrated springs have
been combined, forming beautiful
white salt, which has been bottled for
family use, and Is now offered to the
American people under the name of
Bailey's Saline Aperient at fifty cents
per bottle. The salt possesses all the
qualities Of BauenSBaden water, Is very
pleasant, eflervescent and sparkling,
relieving constipation, sick headache,
sour stomach, ETC., at once.

She was beautiful, he loved her de.
votedly, and happiness seen ed to per.
wade their every act. But trouble
came. Sickness paled Laura's bloom
ing cheeks, dulled her sparkling eyes,
enfeebled her constitution, emaciated
her beautiful form, unstruDg her deli
cate nerves and untitled her for active
life. With an aching heart, her hus-
band consulted doctors, administered
their medicines and talked with
friends. Notwithstanding all this care
and attention, there appeared no relief
for her aching head, that painful back,
that irregular uterine action and that
emaciation. Another friend called
who had seen much sickness and at
once suggested the use Of DR.. Drom-
COOLIES English Female Bitters, as she
mad known 1t to cure similar cases.
Her husband procured it at once and
placed her upon its use. He soon had
the satisfaction of seeing Laura re-
stored to health again.-jun7d&w2w

main reasons for you to buy one of the
Centennial refrigerators, at China

other makes, and has proven to use
$40 less of ice, and keep victuals
placed therein twenty per cent. cooler
and fresher, than any of those other
makes, the prices are nearly If not

RAILWAY COMMISSIONS AND AGENCIES.

THE SCHEME TO ABOLISH THEM OFFICIALLY ABAN-
DoNED-oPINIoN OF RECEIVER DEvEREUX
The project to abolish outside ticket agen-
eies and to cease paying commissions TO agents has
been abandoned The committee appointed at the Sara
toga conference has made report, in which Chair
John King. r of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
says that "the adhesion OF ninety-twO companies
was obtained but the NewYOrk, Lake Erie and west
ern, and Atlantic and Great western Companies heid
ont President Jewett and Receiver Deyer'UX, IN
response 10 personal appeals declaring themselves 70
be adverse to changes Of policy MI klng reports
that il is therefore impossible TO put into practical
operation the wish of the convention"
Receiver Devereux, in concluding long letter claim
ing that the absolute inequality OF dependent IN
terror and estern roads requires reasonable consd-
Grafton in plan which removes the only method by
which through passenger traffic can be secured 10 the
weak lines, adds: "1n my Judgment. day commits
sions rebates drawbacks whether or not known aud
rOuntenanced by any pOOD paid aud allowed upon
freight traffic precisely as bad and more destructive
and pernciOus in result than the current passenger
commissions of any road Trunk lines are called upon
TO make absolute and lasting pool, not Only OF
freight but of passenger revenues. That would effect
naly dispose of all commissions, and aside from he
Atlantic interest, / am convinced that It is simply
lmpracticabe to abolish passenger commissions now
