HEED THE WARNING.

1T is not infrequently the case that the itch
ing pimples and irritating ''cat bOls" are the
fOrerunners Of larger bOils. or the more serious
carbuncles. Invariably Nature puts out her
danger signals. and they should be needed at
once. The pimples and little bols show that
the blood is not in good condition and ma
ture is trying to relieve the system. A few
doses Of Swfts Specific at this junction will ac-
cOmplish wonders. The eruption will be
healed and the system ceansed OF its impuri-
ties. The modern paraphrase Of the old say.
ing, "A stitch in time" etc, Is that Timely
stitches will save nine pairs Of breeches." The
modern form has a touch of humor that does
not modify the truth Of II. In that vein, we
may saw that course Of Swifts Specific pre-
vents ills terrific.

ALONG THE RAIL.
Nothing Is Known of Haym0nd's
Retirement.

The report telegraphed to New York
some days since from this city to the effect
that Greed Raymond of the Southern Pa
cific law department had been retired at the
request of G. p. Huntington cannot be con-
frmed at Fourth aud Townsend streets.
While high officials of the company are not
willing to pronounce the statement abso-
lutely false, yet they seem inclined to Sc
riously doubt its authenticity. One thing is
certain, the change has not been officially
announced, and ce-President Stubs said
yesterday that If Mr.. Raymond had left the
service of the company it was matter of
news to him. 'If he does not resume his
duties at the head of our law department
upon his return from Europe" continued
Mr.. Stnbbs lit will be. in my opinion, re-
tirement at his own request, and not due in
any degree to outside influence"
the monthly statement of the Southern
Pacific Company for March, 1891, shows the
gross earnings of the Pacific system to have
been S2,721, 093, against 81, 53S. 1868 for the
same period of 1890. The operating expenses
for March of this year were SLIT, 1916. while
for the same month in 1890 they were 81, $780,
420. On the Atlantic system the gross earn
ingS tor March. 1884, were S98S, 1885, against
SI,023,3i3 for the same month in 1890, and
the operating expenses S7741sl2. against
first three months of 1891 the gross earnings
of both systems were $40, s74, 1899, and the
operating expenses S7,375167, while for
corresponding period in 1890 the gross earn
ings were 1893. 543, and the operating ex-
penSes S7743,107.
An Oakland paper ventures the informa-
ton that Southern Pacific freight conductors
will be placed under bonds, as a check on
" side-track populations. 1t is there is
said nothing in the report. and nothing Of
the kind has been contemplated. The
average freight conductor needs no such
check. He is usually honest and handles
very little cash.
