1T WILL be remembered that
though the Foraker crowd with the
Governor of the State of Ohio al
the head, may be conquered but
not subdued. They manifested
their strength in the last senatorial
contest and with all the patronage
of the state at their command they
will bob up serenly in the future
and make somebody's hair curl.

More enthusiastic still is the report of Miriam F. .Witherspoon, General Secretary of the Associated Charities of Worcester, Mass. (3s Pearl Street), regarding the great value, as a medicine, of Dr. Greene's s Nervura and its marvellous powers to cure disease and restore health to the people She says:-
 "In my work as General Secretary of Charities in Worcester, have distributed Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy among the needy poor and sick, and it has been received with thankfulness and great joy. One poor woman said she had been trying to save money enough to buy a bottle, and when she found was to give her one, her joy and gratitude were great.
 "In all cases the results have been as we hoped for, building up the feeble, ner- vous, overworked and underfed people who have in general no helper. As far as my experience goes it has been real blessing. M. F. WIrHERsPooN,
 Gen'l Sec'y Associated Charities" :"
 Tn these days when so many ordinary are advertised, it Is a real benefcence to the weak, weary, nerve shattered, tired and worn out sick and sut- fering to know positively and to be shown beyond any doubt or question that this one grand remedy, Dr. Greene's Nervura, does surely and certainly cure the sick that it is the best remedy possible to take, either if one is only little out of order, nervous and run down, or if suffering from more serious affections like nervous prostration, low blood and vitality, rheu- matism, paralysis, stomach troubles, liver and kidney complaint, female weakness or other weakening and facilitating disease. Tn these reports of the Associated Chari- ties is abundant proof that pr. Greene's Nervura does cure the people, that it makes those who use it strong and well, and that 1t will cure you if you will take it. Don't fail to try 1t now.

FAREWELL,
THE HORSE.
One Hundred and Fifty ThOus-
and Equine Motors
In New York City to Have Their
Places Taken By
AUTOMOBILE TRUCKS.
Power Furnished the Vehicles
by Compressed Air.
w. c. Whitney Furnishing the
Necessary Capital.
Joe Letter Has Bought an In.
terest in the Patent.

New York, Dec. 2S.-The Herald says:
The New York Auto Truck company,
with a capital of 81, 900 600, has been in
corporated. With this capital it IS pro-
posed to place auto trucks, operated by
compressed air, in the streets Of the
city.
At present the only persons whose
names are made public in connection
with this scheme are James H. HOadley
and Henry E. Knight. Mr.. Hoadley is
the president of the Compressed Air
Power company. Mr.. HoadIey and Mr..
Knight combined their interests IN COM
pressed air motors some years ago and
William c. Whitney became interested
in their company. Their motors have
recently been adopted by the Metropoli-
tan Traction company for use on the
TWenty-eighth and Twenty-ninth street
crosstown lines and will soon be in
operation.
Joseph Letter recently acquired a con
trolling interest in the foreign rights Of
the HOadIey-Knight patents. In an in
terview, Mr.. Letter spoke guardedly OF
his plans for placing automobiles in
London and other foreign cities, but
said that it was merely a matter of
time when all great cities would be
compelled to adopt some form of motor
in place of horses.
Mr. HoadIey declined to state whether
the capitalists back of the New York
Auto truck company were Mr. Letter
and Mr. Whitney, or tell who they
were. He said that the organization of
the company is not yet completed and
that until it is the names of Ats officers
or directors would not be made public.
OF the plans of the company he also
/ spoke guardedly.
I'VE have built auto-trucks," he said,
land used them at our works in Afassa-
chusetts. We can haul a load of eight
tons 20 miles without replenishlng the
air. It is easier for our trucks to move
eight tons than for three horses to haul
six tons in an ordinary street. On wet
asphalt horses are almost helpless, and
with the substitution of asphalt for
paving stones, the horse must go.
From a sanitary standpoint and in
the matter Of cleanliness it would make
a great difference in the city if the $780,
900 to 100, 900 horses in its streets were
done away with. Our trucks will take
up less room and will move much faster
than an ordinary team, and they are
! under such perfect control that there is
| less danger to life and limb than with
horses.
Electricity cannot be used for trucks
designed to carry heavy loads, owing to
the weight of the storage batteries that
would be required. 1t does very well
for cabs and light delivery wagons, but
| trucking is another matter If we had
our trucks in the city when that last
snow storm fell we could have removed
| it in q hours at the outside"
