the railway accident at Appailly, into

which steams gayly out of cardboard station

gone half way rail is displaced by a stupid

favorite fruit of the gods are reckoning on
plausible theory. 1t was said that the fresh

made this their principal diet. Certain it is
that as medicine for brain workers there are
but few foods so valuable. Apples contain
large amount of phosphorus, and directly
nousish the brain and spinal cord. They con-
tain, in addition to phosphorus, albumen,
sugar, gum, chlorophyll, malic acid, gallic
acid, lime vegetable fiber, and large proper

For several years the road was part

ing that period business all over the

public sentiment demands and in some
way will enforce il, The eesming pros
pect is that the future earnings OF the
road will not enable it to do better than
IL has done in the past, and that the
govern ment will have to pocket loss

it now as well a, at any other time :?
To pay off tbs first mortgage and take
the road seems to afford as good a
chance for the govern ment to save itself
as any other. Should times be more
prosperous and the earnings larger than
are now anticipated, the government
will be the beneficiary, and in that way
may be able to recover some or all of its
losses. Should the Reilly bill paes and
the road be unable to meet its liabilities
as therein provided, the losses to the
government would be enhanced by the
constantly accruing interest. I'D
