come a mother without suffering any
pain whatever. 1t also tells how to
overcome and prevent morning sick
ness and the many other evils attend
ing pregnancy. 1t is highly endorsed

More Interest Being Taken in the Fort
Worth and Albuquerque.
The Natter of the Fort Worth and Denver
SuOps Settled at Last-wOrk to Begin
in Ninety Days

Interest in the Fort Worth and Albu-
querque scheme is being revived, and
the best meu in Fort Worth are giving
the question of building the road much
thought and endeavoring to enlist others
in it. The work IS progressing well, and
it is being considered on the right kind Of
basis. There will be no bonus asked for
the construction of this road-the idea of
having the bonus raised by Fort Worth
has been sbandoned-but a stock COM
psuy plan is being worked on that can
but commend itself TO all who wish to
see this most important road built.
Messrs. Hurley, Tierney s. Lynch say
that is impossible. now, TO earn the sub
sidy raised and offered by Fort
Worth. and they do not ex-
pect it as q subsidy, but thew
with the people of Fort Worth-each
man who contributes TO the road to have
a say in how it should be conducted, and
for each dollar subscribed the subscriber
will have stock to that amount. If this
plan is carried out, and II looks now as
If il would, the Fort Worth and Albu--
qurque road will be strictly Fort Worth
iuvestment-oue that will be run 10 the
interest of Fort Worth aud not controlled
by the other and more powerful road.
If this scheme is carried out there is no
calculating the benefit that will result
from it. The road will run to coal
fields and granite quRrries and through
one OF the greatest agricultural parts of
Texas. From the days trans run into
Spriugtown the money invested IN the
road will pay good interest, and the
business meu, capitalist and real estate
owners in Fort Worth will stand ia their
own light if they do not act promptly
and subscribe TO the capital stock OF the
company.
Quite Humber OF the most successful
business men in the city have subscribed
rs much as $4,000 10 the scheme as il is
TO be conducted, but there are many
men who should follow their example.
II This line is built it will surely kill off
any other project looking TO the building
of a line 10 The Northwest, but if prompt
action is not taken other interests will
occupy the territory, and those interests
are not friendly TO Fort Worth.

Never before in the history of the. linz
has the Fort Worth division of the Union
Pacific done such q large business as at
present. In fact the equipment of the
road is totally inadequate to the demand +,
although new cars and engines have been
placed on the road since spring. 1t has
been called on to handle more than half
of the stock shipments from the South
aud the general business has increased
two-fold. As an evidence that the road
is overrun with traffic it gives the Rio
