There are thousands of these wild

excuse given for shooting them is that
the stations entice away the domestic
mares, which then become as wild as
the other horses.

WHAT A "TEAM" IS.

It Depends ON What Part Of the Country
You Arc In.
What is ''team?" Is it an animal
hitched to a wagon, or two or more
animals and wagon, or simply two
animals harnessed up together? Does
the word include the vehicle? An ex-
cited Bostonian, writing from Nebraska
to Boston paper, confesses his humili-
alton when, upon remarking that a
team. had been left in the street. he
was told by cowboy that he meant a
wagon. He admits, says Harper's
Weekly, that the cowboy was right,
and so it seems here. In the state of
New York, where high standard of
language prevails, team" properly in
sludes the animals, if more than one,
which haul a vehicle, but not the We

designate any animal or animals

another, saying he will put onions and

the other brother and they go to

A MOTORMAN'S LIFE.
Full Of Hardships, Exposure and
Constant Danger.
Tho Great Strain on q Mans Nerves Suf-
1cient in Itself to Wreck Him In u
Short Time-The Experience Of
WelI-Known Motorman.
From the Cincinnati, Ohio, Enoutrer.

From the Cincinnati, Ohio, Enquirer.
The life of motorman is not bed Of
roses. He is subjected to many hardships
especially in the winter when he is exposed
to the cold and snow. Even in the summer
he must bear the intense heat which beats
down upon him. Considerable nerve and
self possession is necessary in a good m otor-
man, for the lives and limbs of his pas
sengers are at stake. One of the best
William Frazer, who is at present running
q car on the Cumminsville electric line. He
Is not only well known to his fellow en-
ployes but to the people who travel on his
car. Mr.: Frazer Is young man about
twenty-six years of age and resides with his
wife and child at IA Belts Street. Cincin-
natl, 0. About a year ago Mr.. Frazer was
taken with serious stomach troubles. He
bought several kiL DIS of medicine which
were recommended to him, but none of
benefit. An enthusiastic admirer Of that
famous remedy known as DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People told him to try
them. Frazer was almost discouraged, but
took the advice. To a reporter of the En-
Quirer he said:
81 can most heartily recommend DR.. Will
iams' Pink Pills. They are all that is
claimed for them, in fact they advertise
saw. I was seized some time ago with a
bad attack of indigestion. My stomach
hurt me nearly all the time and could not
digest my food. The pain was almost un-
bearable and found nothing that would give
me relief I confess that when bought
the first box of Pink Pills hadn't much
confidence in their efficacy because had
tried SO many things without success that
was almost discouraged. Before l had
taken one box 1 was decidedly better. Two
boxes cured me entirely. While I have
been under the weather from other causes
my indigestion has never returned. If it
ever should l know just what to do. I have
so much confidence in the efficacy of Pink
Pills that ii ever get real sick again with
any disorder I shall use some of them. 1t
is pleasure for me I assure you to testify
to the excellent qualities of these Pink Pills.
They not only tone the stomach but regu-
late the bowels and act as mild cathartic."
Mr.. Frazer's testimonial means some
thing. He speaks from personal experience
and any one who doubts that he received
the benefits stated can easily verify the q.
sertion by calling on Mr. Frazer or seeing
him some time while heis on his car.
DIR. Williams Pink Pills contain all the
elements necessary to give new life and
richness to the blood and restore shattered
nerves: They are sold in boxes (never in
loose form by the dozen or hundred) at 50
cents box, or six boxes for &. So and may
be had of all druggists or directly by mail
