the blood loaded with impurities, owing TO
lack of exercise, close confinement in poorly
ventilated shops and homes and other
causes. This is the cause of the dull,
sluggish, tired feeling so general ut this
season, and which must be overcome, or
the health may be entirely broken down.

est popularity all over the country as the
favorite spring medicine. 1t expels the
accumulation of impurities through the
bowels, kidneys, liver. lungs and skin, gives
to the blood the purity and quality neces-
sary to good health and oyercomes that
tired feeling.

THE WIDDIs ELECTRIC MAI. CAR IN OPERATION.

which serves at once as a guide and
Il support, and which prevents the
wheels from leaving the main track
In the center Of the car is specially
designed electric motor of exceeding
HghtnesS and power that drives by
means Of sprocket wheels and link
belts the driving wheels above. The
current to operate this motor is taken
from wire strung above the track
by a trolley wheel much after the
manner Of the ordinary electric street
car The electric power is to be ap-
pileN1rom dynamo stations at points
along the route. Very little electrical
force is required. 1t is estimated
that eleven-horse power will propel a
I,O00-pound car with its load at the
rate of 500 miles an hour.
Where the car is to be used for the
carriage of mail matter no stoppage
IS needed for the delivery of the mail
bags at their proper stations. In the
mail car, which is bottomless, each
mail bag rests on shelf or platform
which can be moved up or down by a
lever that projects from it through
the side Of the car. AS the car
whizzes by station this lever strikes
