New York courts go beyond en-
gineers and conductors to directors of
roads for misdemeanors. The recent
indictments Of millionaire directors
like Dopew, Rockefeller and others of
the New Haven road, show that the
courts mean to deal only with the
responsible parties for all troubles on
the roads. Mr. Depew 6 Co. may not
be convicted, most likely not, but the
action of the court will make directors
more particular to see that no laws o.
the state touching the running of thei
roads are violated.

How the human system ever RECEIVERS

icines often literally poured into it for the
suppositive relief OF dyspepsia, liver COM

done by bad medicine is scarcely less than
that caused by disease. II they who are
weak, bilious, dyspeptic, constipated or
rheumatic, would oftener be guided by
the experience Of invalids who have thor

the speediest aid derivable from rational
medication. This medicine Is searching
and at the same time thoroughly safe
remedy, derived from vegetable sources,

basis Of pure spirits, properties as a me-
dicinal stimulant not to be found In the
fiery local bltters and stimulants often
resorted to by the debilltated, dyspeptic
