soon makes its appearance, causing q
multitude of small ulcers between these

seductive paragraph began with a
modest account of the sea-serpent, but
ended by setting forth the virtues of
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery,
which, it was alleged, was a cure for
all Bronchial, Throat and Lung
troubles, and would even cure consump-

cases of consumption, if taken in the

driving wheels are as large as those of
any ten-wheel locomotive ever turned
out of an American shop. From rim

cylinders are twenty-eight by nineteen
and one-half inches. The engines are
conStructed for a pressure of $50 pounds
of steam. or twenty pounds over what
was few years ago considered re-
markable pressure.
The engines are built especially for
pulling heavy loads at "a high rate OF

to eleven or twelve cars
