 What is your idea of tbe way freight brakeman should dress 2''
 Are you in the habit of drinking liquor? Do you take drink occasion ally, or don't you believe in drinking at all?"
 ''What position do you hope to get if you remain in the service of this road ?"
 Do you think man who is mar ried makes as good a brakeman as one who is not?"
 Do you always believe in being strictly on time"
 Perhaps at first glance these ques- tions may not seem particularly sig nifcant, but if they are carefully studied it will be seen that after they have been answered the questioner will have fairly good idea of the man whom he has been quizzing. Some of the suggestions appear commonplace, but they form part of an ingenious whole that as q rule reveals the majori- ty of the facts the trainmaster wishes to know. They will be more appreciated when these rules that must serve as the guidance of railroad employees are noted:
 "Employes while on duty must wear the prescribed badge or uniform and be neat in appearance. 'sThe use of intozicants while on duty is prohibited. Their habitual use or the frequentiug of places where they are sold is sufficient cause for dis missal.
 eThe use of tobacco by employees when in or about passenger stations or by passenger trainmen when on duty is prohibited.
 All employees must be polite and considerate in their intercourse with the public. The reputation and pros perity of a company depend greatly upon the promptness with which It's business is conducted and the manner in which it's patrons are treated by it's employees.
 conductors will be held responsible for the proper adjustment of the switches used by them and their train men, except where switch tenders are stationed. Whoever opens a switch shall remain at it until it is closed, unless relieved by some other comPe- tent employe.
 Each trainman must have a suit able watch which has been examined and certified to on prescribed form by designated inspector and must fle such certificate before he is allowed to go on duty. Watches must be examined every day"
 Ali these rules are observed. They are not for effect in the least. A first offense means a reprimand by the trainmaster. A second offense is likely to mean a visit to the superintendent and a suspension of from one to ten days. A recurrence of the offense is likely to mean dismissal. Small mat ters are considered offenses- Ii a brakeman, whose duty it is to look after the rear coach of q train ln wln- ter lets the hose freeze at the end twice. the superintendent says.te aim :; aWhy did you let that hose freeze 7 I Why didn't you let the water run or 1. think you had better take layoff or

 The question: els consumption curn. ble 2" is still debated, and stiff debatab1e. It is easy to say that this was not case of consumption. Yet the physicians said it was; They should know. As q matter of fact, pr. Ayers Cherry Peetora1 has wrought so many similar cures that 1t seems te argue the. curableness of con- sunpti1n i'll it's earlier stages, by the use of this remedy. There is no better medi- cine for pulmonary troubles than pr. Ayers Cherry Pectora1. Ii gives relief in cases of Asthma, and Bronchitis, where re- lief has been heretofore unattainabie. It promptly cures Coughs and Colds, La Grippe, and all affections of the tliroat and lungs. Heretofore, Dr. Ayers Cherry Pectoral has been put up in full size bottles only, at Sr.oo per bottle. To meet a woI ld-wide demand for a smaller pack age, the remedy is now put up in ha1f size bottles, at half price--5o cents. Write for pr.
