and its effects are more permanent than
those of any of the deleterious cosmet-

a purely vegetable preparation. Be-

Shipments on the UnIor Tac!tr Rail.
road

7 rom IL" Omaha Herald.
Freight Auditor Goble, Of the l.. z.
railroad has prepared and published in
convenient form, certain statistics OF
live stock shipments over that road dur
ing the past year, which show at a
glance the dimensions of this all i'm
portant industry in this part of the
west, and will serve as a basis in future
years for a series of comparative fig
ures Of the greatest value. This circu-
lar shows the number of carloads of
cattle, hogs, horses and sheep shipped
from each station on the U. p. road.
and to what point on the railroad they
were destined, through shipments, of
courts, appearing at one or the other of
the terminal points. This statement
shows at a glance from what points and
TO what points the principal live stock
shipments are made, giving in each in
stance the number of cars and the class
OF stock. Mr.. Goble has received in
quiries without number on this very
point, and found the publication of
such a circular n necessity, in order to
answer satisfactorily the various inuui-
ries. The total number of cars re-
ceived at Council Bluffs-which in
cludes the total number Of through
eastward s~hipments-is 6,508 cars, as
against 1923 for the preceding year,
Omaha's local trade shows a no less
gratifying exhibit, the receipts this
year being 1,027 cars, against 74O last
year, but in cattle shipments the figures
are not quite so pleasing. Owing to
the removal from the city of the Union
stock yards the receipts of cattle have
been but 1873 cars, against $50 last year.
This is more than compensated, how
ever, in the receipts of hogs, of which
sS2 cars were received in 1879, against
552 for the preceding year. Four car
loads of horses and 8 of sheep were re-
