The Great Heart and Blood Tonic.

Lack of nourishment and loss of
vital power make weak hearts, and
weak hearts bring death. You de-
pend on your heart to keep your
blood in circulation, carrying nour-
ishment to the various bones, mus
cles, organs and tissues of the body.
In no other way can that distribu-
ton of nourishment be accom-
plished. So when your heart ac-
ton has been affected by overwork,
facilitating disease or from any
other cause, you will find a pleas
ant, safe and sure remedy in DR..
Miles New Heart Cure. This great
heart and blood tonic not only reg
ulates the action of the heart, but
it gives the digestive system power
to assimilate nourishment. and fills
the blood with the red, life-giving
elements which nourish and build
up the system.

In addition to the regular international
convention of Young Mems Christian Asso-
Citations, the men constituting the railroad
branches, who number now over 80, 600, hold
every two or three years a conference of
their own All grades of employees from
president down to the end of the pay roll
participate The railroad committee of the
Indiana Young Mems Christian Association
learned some time ago that there was good
prospects of bringing the next conference,
which is to be held in September, near to
the center of population. This committee
is composed of c. H. Newton, agent of the
Wabash at Fort Wayne; j. +. Wallick.
superintendent sixth district Western Union
Telegraph Company, Indianapolis; j. M.
Lindley, road foreman of engines, Wanda
liza line, Terre Haute; A. Galloway, super
intendent c., H. & D., Cincinnati. and W.
j. Lewis, treasurer p, d. IL E., Evansville.
1t is regarded as one of the most efficient
in the country. Its attention to the above
named meeting resulted in the railroad
branch at Fort Wayne inviting the con-
ference to meet in that city, and an invi-
tation has been telegraphed to the head
quarters of the international committee at
New York. With its excellent railroad
facilities and its proximity to the center of
the American associations as well as to the
center of population, Fort Wayne is likely
to have the strongest and largest railroad
conference yet held providing the ;nterna-
tional committees decision is favorable.

the membership of the board of control of
the Joint Traffic Association were present
at a meeting of the board held in New
York yesterday Chauncey M. Depew pre-
siding. The following statement was issued
after the adjournment: THE question of
the status of the association before the
Supreme Court at Washington was not
mentioned during the proceedings. The first
business was a communication from the
quartermaster general of the United States
army, inviting the association TO provide as
to it's own territory and to cooperate with
adjoining associations for uniform rates for
The transportation of troops and their be-
longings, war material supplies and ami
mails. which question was referred TO the
board of managers for early action. 1t was
reported that the condition of westbound
rates was satisfactory, so far as the OBJ
servance of published tariffs is concerned.
A discussion followed to the condition
of eastbound rates, which disclosed a great
er lack of uniformity, and action was taken
referring the entire subject to the board
OF managers. The articles of organization
OF the association provide that the board
of control shall consist of the presidents
of the companies comprising the associa-
ucn. This was amended SO as 10 provide
that the presidents, chairmen of boards of
directors or receivers of constituent COM
panies should constitute such board. This
is intended to provide for such contingent
cies as the election of Mr.. Depew as chair
man of the board of directors Of the New
York Central Railroad and the receivership
of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad. The
trunk line presidents appointed a commit
tee to consider the subject of grain rates
from Lake Erie ports to Atlantic seaboard
cities.
There was also a meeting of the Trunk

mittee appointed at the recent conference
to effect settlement of the Northweste

to the meeting of managers, to be held in
Chicago on May 6. A general recommended
ton that rates for troops be fixed upon a
basis of 1h cents a mile was agreed to and
referred to the board of managers fGr final
action.
