Something for the New Year.I

The world-renowned 4uccess of Hos

wonderful than the welcome that greets

treatise is published by the Hostetter
Company, Pittsburg, Pa, under their
w immediate supervision, employing
sixty hands in that department. The
ISSUE of same for 1899 will be over eleven
millions, printed in nine languages. Re-
fer to a copy of it for valuable and in
teresting reading concerning health,
and numerous testimonials as to the eff
ficacy of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters.

Two Pointed Questions Answered.

What is the use of making a better
article than your competitor if you can
not get a better price for it?
Ans.-As there is no difference in the
price the public will buy onlyth better,
so that while our profits may be smaller
on a single sale they will be much great
or in the aggregate.
How can you get the public to know
your make is the best? .
If both articles are brought promi-
nently before the public both are certain
to be tried and the public wll very
quickly pass Judgment on them and use
only the better one.

worthy of the name, who did not aspire
to be. the father and the grandfather of
healthy, capable children to land down
his name and the fortune accumulated by
the sweat of his brow, from generation to

Of welded couples, otherwise happy, fall
short of wedlock's greatest happiness be-
cause they are childless. In the majority
of cases, this is because the wife, through
ignorance or neglect, suffers from weak
ness and disease of the organs distinctly
feminine. For women who suffer IN this
way there is one great medicine that does
not fail to accomplish its purpose. 1t is
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. 1t acts
directly on the delicate organs concerned
and makes them strong, healthy, vigorous,
virile and elastic. 1t allays inflammation,
heals liberation, soothes pain and tones
the shattered nerves. 1t fits for wifehood
and motherhood. 1t quickens and vltallzes
the distinctly feminine organism. 1t ban
ishes the maladies of the expectant months
and makes baby's introduction to the world
easy and almost painless. 1t insures the
little newcomers health and nourishment

ing" she added; ''quite early"
Lemkin paid no heed to the woman's
remark, which he did not understand. A
letter from Magda to him, whose hand
unusual thing that it stunned him. With
trembling fingers the poor fellow tore open
the envelope. He did not have far to read
before he understood that Magda had left
him on the eve of their wedding. Il am
ambitious, " she wrote, land I think | can
get along better without you. You are
nothing but a poor prompter, and that is
probably all you ever will be. love you

The courage of the soldier, the calling
for which he had been bred, came to his
rescue. II am sorry l missed seeing her, -
he said to the landlady. ''before she left.
But I can write to her. She left me her
address in this letter"
1t was a falsehood which he spoke with
stern lips, because he did not want to be
tray to the old woman that he had been
Tilted. Then he went away, resumed his
duties at the theater that night, and an
swered cheerily all questions about Magda,
who had secured a release for the last few
days of her term.
Years have passed since then. The poor
prompter is a prompter still, but no longer
in a little obscure theater on Third av.
enue. He has moved along with the play
houses to better quarters and receives q
comfortable salary from a first class man.
ager, whose assistant he is, while he still
follows his calling as prompter.
Karl Lemkin has not aged much, and If
there is any change in him it is for the
better. He wears better clothes than he
used to, and his face always has a happy
smile. Every night he is accompanied to
the theater by a little old lady. When he
has accompanied her to a seat in the audi
forum, he goes back to his prompt box,
and when the play is over the old lady
waits for him until he comes to fetch her.
Then the two trudge home together, and
on the way they always talk. They seem
to have so much to say to each other.
Maybe because they have to make up for
lost time.
The little old woman is Karls wife, and
she is the same Magda who once SO basely
Tilted him. One day five years ago, when
Lemkin came to the theater, the manager
said to him:
81 have engaged a new dresser, Karl
She is an old woman, and I want you to
assist her all you can if she should need
your help. l think she'll suit us better
than that frivolous young thing we last
had, who was always late and never
around when she was wanted"
So Karl on his way to the prompt box
stopped to inquire for the new dressing
m The leading lady took him to
her room, where the %prompter came faco
to face with Magda, old and wrinkled
now, for 30 years had passed since he had
seen her last.
What use to speak of their Joy? What
use to relate Karl's tender condoning of
all that lay between that day and now? A
few weeks later they were married, and if
love can make the old young and wipe out
from their memories the bitter past, Karl
has found at last what seemed to have for
ever slipped from his grasp.-St. Louis

THE SMOOTHEST TRAIN IN THE
United STATES.


on Sunday, November 20, the Bur
lington Route made a radical change in
the schedule of the Chicago Special, its
finest and fastest Denver-Chicago train.
Heretofore, this train has left Denver
in the morning-immediately after the
arrival of d. & r. G. and Colorado Mid
land trains from the west. 1t now
leaves at lao p. m, arriving at Omaha
in time for breakfast next morning, and
at Chicago at SIS p. m. the same day.
In other words, it runs 1,046 miles in
2912 hours-an average rate of speed OF
about So miles an hour. There are not
half a dozen long-distance trains in the
United States which are scheduled fast
er tina Sc miles an hour. And there is
not one-not a single one-which has as
| good a record as the Chicago Special
for being ION time all the time"
The equipment of the Chicago Special
consists of one sleeping car, n din
ing car, one library and two
chair cars. The ears are of the
newest design, and have been
in service less than six months.
All Of them have the new wide vesti-
bule, and are lighted with Pintsch gas.
The sleeper is upholstered in peacock
blue, and contains twelve sections and
4 drawing-room. The toilet rooms are
unusually roomy-a circumstance to
which much of the trains popularity is
due.
In each of the two reclining chair
cars are seats for Sc persons, ladies' and
gentlemen's toilet-rooms with soap,
marble wash-basins, comb, brush,
towels, and an abundance of water.
both hot and cold), and a smoking-room
upholstered in leather.
OF the eleven dining-cars operated by
the Burlington Route, none is finer than
that on the Chicago Special. 1t is as
bright as a new pin. The linen is spot
lessly clean, the service is prompt, and
on every table is a gorgeous bouquet of
American Beauty roses, one of which
the waiter affixes to your coat when you
have finished your meal. Best of all,
the a-la-carte plan prevails-you only
pay for what you order.
The library car is the mems favorite
retreat. 1t is a veritable clubhouse or
wheels, a place where comfort reigns
supreme, and where the necessity for
exerting ones self is reduced to a min
imum. If you want anything-today's
paper, the monthly magazines, a cigar,
Il bottle of apollinaris, or a pillow
press a button and the smiling attend
ant brings it to you.
The Denver Republican calls the Chi
cago Special the "smoothest train in
the United States" The phrase de-
scribes it to a nicely. 1t rs a smooth
train-inside and out. It's furnishings
are in admirable taste, and the track
over which it glides is perfection itself.
Fortunate is the traveller who goes east
on it. Kings fare no better when they
travel. than he.

The Canal Man.

A canal man, unless there happens to be
a member Of his family who can help him,
hires a man called 'the hand" The men
who run the boats come from various posi-
lions in life to become canal men. Some
have been farmers who own farms along
or near the canal and not a few have been
born and lived all their lives on a canal
boat. Perhaps one of the most unusual
cases is that of a we'll educated man, who
was formerly a Methodist minister, but Ia
now and has been for several years living
with his family on one of these boats and
driving mules for a living.
The majority, however, are rough and
ignorant, and the %proverbial swearing is
to be heard in it's most repulsive forms.
One notices frequently a lame or crippled
man in charge Of a boat, since this is one
of the few positions in which a manned
person is able to earn a livelihood. A
canal mans family, if he has one, lives
with him on the boat during the open
season, and the rest Of the year some live
or little plots Of ground, often too small
to be called farms, or perhaps they may
live in one of the larger towns near by

ROAD IMPROVEMENT.

We are glad to see sentiment
in favor of good roads growing SO
rapidly in this county, and espe
cially in the section east OF town.
Besides the work done by the %
wagons hauling rocks on the road
east OF town last Friday. it is
now proposed to devote another
day to that important work, and
if the weather is suitable to-mor-
row. there will probably be 35 or
40 wagons. and if they do not
get enough rock there that day to
put the road in the condition it
should be put, they should all
"with one accord" devote another
day to the work.
The chain gang was put upon
that piece of road Monday. and
if the people will haul the rocks
there the Supervisor will keep
the gang there till that road is
macadamized solidly from town
to the Mellow house. This is a
piece of road of more than unu
sual importance. Perhaps four
