A FERRY for loaded cars is talked of between Tampa, Fla and Ha- vana. The idea, according to a Southern paper, is to build suitable tracks at both ends and load cars in Havana with fruit and perishable goods, run them on the ferryboat, and then scud them away across the gulf to Tampa, run them on the track, and then away to northern destinations.

BOOKSELLERS CARRIAGES.
BetWeen Flagstaff and the Grand
 Canyon or the Colorado.

,. The contract TOT the hOrseleSs
 carriages to be operated by the
 Santa Fe road between Flagstaff and

 largescoachee, to cost $4,000 each,
 and six smaller ones. These will

King, the designer, whose trackless engines will, he claims, ascend the steep mountain grades with the greatest ease.
 The body of the coach will be about the size of an ordinary carette, with seating capacity for eighteen persons, including he driver. It will seat twelve passengers inside, while six more can be accommodate ed on top. A fourteen-horse power gasoline engine will furnish the motive power. The particular merit of this automobile lies in it's engine. which, it IS claimed by its designer, Mir. King. IS the most wonderful ever pat into a horseless carriage The engine is of the double cylinder balanced type.
 The contract calls for the con- pletion of the first uf the automo- piles within sixty days. Att e expiration of the time limit the constructors expect to have the vehicles in readiness to be loaded on to Santa Fe flat car and ship ped to Flagstsff. It's efficiency as mountain climber-a feature which Was particularly considered by the railroad officials in the selec- tion of design will ne gwen inn mediate test. There is q stretch of seventy miles between Flagstaff and the destin@.ion, and the automobile 1 is required to make this distance Iii less than ;en hours, climbing sev- eral grades which exceed twelve per cent. If this trial proves success full, the manufacturers will com mence at once to fiji the rest of the contract with the railroad cOmp pany, 1 which contemplates running a re- gular horseiess coah line to the Grand canyon, eventually estab- fishing hotel there.
 Each of the coaches will Ee turn ished with all the accommodations of 8 tallyho. The machinery will be en irely hidden from view ill box over the rear axle. Under the bed there will be a refrigerator. The wheels will be provided with heavy rubber tires six inches in width.

plish too much and didn't take care of my health and 1 broke down. 1 might have been saved worlds of suffering if 1 had been more careful and used little com mon sense. hated to tell my mother how miserable felt before married. thought she would just pooh! poohl at me. 1 think mothers understand more about such troubles nowadays than they used to. I would never allow a daughter of mine to marry, being no stronger than l was then.
 My husband was so kind and consid- crate I didn't want to be complaining all the time. He insisted or the doctor com ing to see me-a real good, old doctor too. He gave me medicine for my digestion and my heedache, and something to help ny heart action. I somehow could not bear to tell him what the real trouble was I knew he would insist on an examination and dreaded it 90.
 "My married sister told me ought to write to Dr. Pierce. of Buffalo, but felt so guilty to do that without telling my hus- band But sine wrote for me and received a kind, sensible letter, telling n1e how to give myself simple treatment at home. This helped me; aud then she got rle three bottles of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre- scription and I began to take it. Pretty soon my husband said something is doing you good sure: You're ever so much stronger aud brighter Then I had to tell him everything. O
 First he frowned little and shook his head then he just laughed and said well the proof Of the pudding is in the eating If this little woman is made we'll aud etrong by GRVbo3y's Prescription no matter whet his name is, God bless him, whether he lives in Buffalo or right next door And I SOdS made perfectly strong and well by this treatment, as never had been before iu my life.''
 This is true experience; it IS ore of thousands which show that a physician like Dr. Pierce, who has devoted a lifetime of special practice to treating ailments peculiar to women, can prescribe for them by mail just as effectively as If the patient was in his office, aud a thousand times more effectively than the average doctor whose attention IS merely given to general practice. Dr. Pierce has been thirty years chief consulting physician to the Iuvalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, of Buffalo, N. Y. His prescriptions are accepted all over the world as the great standard rem edics for the diseases which they are designed to cure; and as an author of med ical books he stands amcug the most enli- nert authorities.
 The above is not a fairy story. It Is not the story of one person. It is the story of thousands of women. IL is a composite picture in which one can trace face behind face, lined with suffering, cilauneled by tears. It Is a story as true as the parable of the Prodigal Son, which was not the story of one young man but tue story of the type which repeats itself generation after generation aud is as common to Europe as to Asia, to Africa as to America.

STATE FIRE WARDEN.
Aitl>in County People Think He Is
a Useless Luxury.

Aftl<fn County People Think He Is
a Useless Luxury.
The house committee on forestry met
last evening and listened to arguments
made by Gen. @. c. Andrews, Judson n.
Cross and Prof. S. B. Green, of the agri-
cultural college, against the repeal of the
forestry law of 1896 and the discontin-
uance Of the Office Of chief fire warden
Petitions protesting against the repeal
of the law were read from residents Of
Olmsted and Itasca counties and a letter
from the G. A. Smith Lumber company
stated that while the law had not ac-
complished as much as had been claimed
for it at the time 1t was passed, it had
done some good and at very small
cost"
A petition signed by. sixty residents of
Aitkin county declared. that the law had
not done any good and provided only a
pension office for some one to live on,
and for this reason should be repealed
Gen. Andrews, the chief fire warden,
pointed out that there had been no
serious fires in the past three years and
that the cost was very small. The law
was in force in thirty-f1ve of the counties
in the state and one-third of the expense
was sustained by the state The state
auditor had said that the cost to the
state, about $1,000 per year. was worth
all that simply for the protection it af-
forded the state lands
Judson N. Cross, of Minneapolis, argued
that the law was fors the benefit of the
entire state and in the interests Of the
preservation of the forests. For this
reason the state had right to impose
such law on every county and town
ship in the state The cost to each coun-
ty was small, being less than $100 per
year, and 1t was money well invested.
The committee deferred action on the
bill until the next meeting.
