a woman to share the burden of his i'll

asks her to be his wife. Ill-health in man
is almost invariably the result of disorders
of the digestive and nutritive organs. If
a mans stomach is right and his liver
right. his blood will be pure and rich, and
his nerves strong and steady. When the
blood is pure and rich a man cannot suf-

Halfway.
The Harlan & Hollingsworth Co. Of
this city, through its attorneys, Reed &
Petit, Monday filed bill in equity in
the Common Pleas Court. Philadelphia,
against the Altoona Sc Phillipsbnrg Con-
Meeting Railroad Company, and the
Union Trust Company, trustee Of the
mortgage dated June LIST, 1888, on the
railroad property and franchises securing
an issue of bonds amounting TO 100000,
asking for the foreclosure of the mort
gage and the appointment of a receiver.
1t is related in the bill that the Harlan
Il Hollingsworth Company is the holder
of ten of the mortgage bonds of the rail-
road company Of the par value of 81 1000
each, which were acquired for value.
Among other things, it is alleged that the
railroad company is insolvent and with
out means of paying its obligations as
they mature, and without resources from
which to procure the necessary funds for
the payment of the interest due upon the
bonds secured by the mortgage. That
the company, while permitting the inter-
| est upon the bonds to remain in default,
is still operating its roads and receiving
and applying the net earnings to such
| other purposes as they see fit. Plaintiffs,
therefore, say that it is necessary for the
protection of themselves and other bond
holders that the mortgage be foreclosod
and a receiver appointed to take possess
| sion of the railroad.
