SANTA FE STOCKHOLDERS.
To Meet in This City Thursday-The
Work Contemplate.

The annual meeting of the stock
holders of the AtchisOn, Topeka & Santa
Fe Railway company will be held in
this city at noon on Thursday of this
" eek. President Ripley, Vice Presidents
Morton and Kenna, General Counsel
Morawetz, Chairman Aldace F. Walker
and some of the eastern directors are
expected to be present.
If there is a quorum of directors pres
ent, the annual meeting of the board
of directors can be held Immediately
after the stockholders. If not, the an
nual meeting will be held later in New
York city, and it is not expected that a
quorum will be present.
There are several important features
scheduled for this meeting of the stock
holders. Probably the most important
is the approval of the purchase of the
bonds of the San Joaquin Valley rail-
road or Bakersfield line, which will give
the Santa Fe it's own road into San
Francisco. This, however will be only
a formal matter, as the purchase of the
road has been agreed upon and arrange
ments made for the transfer of its con-
troll to the Santa Fe.
Another important move will be the
approval of the consolidation, either by
lease or purchase, of the branch lines
now operated as a part of the Santa F'e
railway. Many of the branch lines
will be purchased outright, and those
that can not be bought will be leased
for an indefinite time.
The eastern officials will arrive in
this city Wednesday night or Thursday
morning in a special train.

ASTHMA CURED AT LAST.
DR. R. sCHIFFMANN PROVES
HIS FAITH IN HIS REMEDY
By GIVING IT AWAY.

DR.. Rudolph Schiffmann IS a recog-
nized authority, on the subject of throat
and lung diseases and has, during a
practice of over thirty years, undoubt-
eddy treated and cured more cases of
Asthma and kindred diseases than any
doctor in the world. He announces that
he has at last perfected remedy which
not only instantly relieves the worst
attacks but has permanently cured
thousands of so called "'incurable cases."
Dr. Schiffmann has perfect confidence
in his remedy and in order to convince
others of it's merits in the quickest,
surest way, he has arranged with the
well known druggists, Rowley & Snow,
southeast corner Sixth and Kansas ave-
nue., to give a liberal sample package
to each sufferer applying at his store
next Thursday. An opportunity to test,
without cost, a remedy so celebrated
and promising so much, certainly should
be eagerly grasped by every sufferer.
Those living out of town will be sent a
free sample not later than Dec. 18th by
writing name and address on a post
card, and sending to Dr. r. Schiffmann,
315 Rosabel ST., st. Paul, MINI.

DIR. HALE DOES NOT
Write Testimonials, but Does Good
in Another Way.

Ny husband, DR.. Hale, does not write
recommendations, but he always recon-
mends to his patients the use of Postum
Food Coffee, in place OF common coffee.
We mix the Postum with just enough
egg (white and yoIk beaten tOgether)
to moisten it a little, then the Postum
does not boil up around the edges Of
the coffee pot as it does when mOisten-
ed with water alone. and we think st
tastes richer and seems clearer.
This does not take the place of con-
tinued boiling, for we have no way to
get the rich taste out of Postum except
by knowing that it has been allowed to
boil fifteen or twenty minutes after the
real boiling begins.
Many make a mistake by counting
the fifteen minutes from the time they
put the pot on the stove. but this will
not do I have never had any liver
trouble since began the use Of Postum,
whereas before, I was constantly
troubled with a sluggish liver.
