FAKE


~Hu u - CATION OF small
things. If we
take care of the small things we are in
effect taking care of the large things
which the small things combine to make.
That is the philosophy of the old fiilan-
cial proverb, and its application is as
broad as human life.
Take care of what you eat, when you
eat, and how you eat, and your stomach
will take care of itself But who takes
care Of such trivial thingsl That is
why, someday, the majority of people
have to take care OF the stomach. When
that day comes, there is no aid so effec-
tive in undoing the results of past care
lessness as DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery 1t strengthens the stomach.
and restores the organs of digestion and
nutrition TO a condition of healthy ac-
tivity. 1t cures biliousness, heartburn,
Aatulence, indigestion, palpitation, diz-
illness, cold extremities, and score OF
other ailments which are but the symp-
toms of disorder in the stomach and its
allied organs
If you are sick you can consult Dr.
r. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N. ", by letter,
free Of charge. Each letter is treated as
sacredly confidential, and an answer is
promptly sent in plain envelope with
out printing or advertising upon it.

Improvement.
As a natural corollary OF the improve
ment IN railway business which marked the
past year, the number of railway companies
placed In the hands OF receivers Is compar-
atively small. Indeed, until the very last
day Of the year the totals for 1898 were
less. in respect to both mileage and capi-
talization, than In any years since 1882
On December 81, however. 1t was unex-
pectedly announced that a receiver had
been appointed for the Baltimore and Ohio
Southwestern, and to this one company
must be charged IS per cent of the total
mileage and 60 per cent of the total capt.
talisation represented by the companies be-
coming insolvent in 1898. These comprise
eighteen roads-most Of them having less
than 100 miles of line-showing an aggre-
gate Of .206s miles and OF s13S, 100000 of Sc
cGrities involved.
All of these defaulting roads were local
In their character, having little or no con-
nection with Interstate commerce, with the
exception of the Baltimore and Ohio South
western. That important company. which
had been recently reorganized under hope
full auspices, represents In It's new embar-
rassmsnt difficulties OF long standing
rather than present conditions. The era
of railway bankruptcies, which began Ia
1892, now appears to have run Its course,
and the record for the coming year Is likely
to be extremely small. "A new era OF pros
perity has begun. How long It will con-
tinue none can say.
