An idea of this mans stretch may be

night train dispatcher on a division of an
Illinois railroad. He was stationed in
lonesome place between two towns and
spent his nights alone. The nearest house
was five miles distant. One stormy night
in September the door of his little Office
was thrown open, and in rushed three

There is more catarrh in this section of the
country than all other diseases put together, and
until the last few years was supposed to be in
durable. For great many years doctors pro,
nounced it local disease, and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with
local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Science
has proven catarrh to be constitutional disease
and therefore requires constitutional treatment
Cheney & Co, Toledo Ohio, is the only constitu
tional cure in the market. 1t is taken internally
in doses from ten drops TO a teaspoonful. 1t acts
directly on the blood and mucous surfaces of the
system. They offer one hundred dollars for any

THE FITCHBURGS GOOD SHOWING

THE FITCHBURG'S GOOD SHOWING.
The annual report of the Fitchburg
Railroad company to the Massachusetts,
Railroad Commissioners shows the total
income for the year to have been $7,707,-
POI; operating expenses, S. 542, $50; net
earnings. 81, 164, COS; dividends paid,
S66S, 1873; surplus carried to improve
ment fund, S31 ,652.77. The company
has paid 1924, 10 on account Of the fatal
accident at West Cambridge, September
10, 1892, and six claims are unsettled.
These figures for the present year, part
of which has been one of great indus
trial depression, are testimonial to the
able and conservative management of the
Fitchburg system. The results here
with given show the effect of the appli-
cation of purely business principles to
purely Legitimate enterprises, and that a
road which confines itself to objects for
which it was created will deserve and re-
ceive a large share of the public conf
Gence and patronage. Under the capa-
BILE administration of Henry S. Marcy
the Fitchburg road has not entered into
any shystering, speculative or cOnsolida-
ton schemes, but has been confined to
the lines of legitimate transportation
business and the very satisfactory re-
suits attained fully establish the wisdom
of such a course and furnish an excellent
testimonial to the sagacity and ability of
capable and faithful executive, and ex-
cellent staff of subordinate officials.
Within few years the Fitchburg has
grown up from a series of short connect
ing roads to great trunk line, finely
equipped and ably managed, which com
pares favorably with any of the leading
transportation lines in this country.

ent the celebrated Iowa State band,
which passed through Salt Lake few
