ice RESI- CURE.

This is often the best cure. But
many people cannot afford to rest
indefinitely. Worse still, the very
knowledge that they cannot, serious
ly interferes with the best use of the
rest they have. Too often going to
the doctor means that the patient
shall stop short, while cares and
duties and expenses continue
Many, therefore, hesitate and delay.
Drs. Starkey & Palen's Compound
Oxygen Treatment presents an easy
way out of the dilemma; it has done
so for more than a score. of years
aud for more than three score thous-
and people, The agent used is the
Compound Oxygen. The method
puts it where it will do the most good
lin the lungs. The treatment nei-

NEW SIGNAL SYSTEM

At the Grand Central Railroad Station.
 The plans of the engineers who are changing the terminal facilities at the Grand Central station contemplate the entire encouragement of the tracks so that through and local trains will be able to enter the station simultaneously. The control of all the tracks as far north as Fiftieth street will be concen- trated in one main signal tower in stead of the two now in use, and com pressed air will be used as the actuating power for every operation. This will do away with the laborious lever pulling, and will make the movements of the switches and signals easier, quicker, and safer. One of the features of the sys tenn which is being installed is that the signals. switch cylinders, detector bars, and all the necessary adjuncts have been devised to work with air under low pressure, and experiments have shown that they do better than with the high pressures before deemed necessary. By the movement of a small lever re- quiring little muscular effort, switch weighing ton, and a considerable dis tance away, is moved almost instanta- neously Every switch or signal move ment is also reported back to the man in the tower and is registered or tie lever of the machine.

Will Ask for Good Roads Planks in Party Platforms.
 Wheelmen, through their national or ganization, the League of American Wheelmen, are to be factors in the na- tional republican and democratic con- ventionS. The officers of the organiza- ,, tion have decided to use every means to secure the adoption of a good roads plank in both platforms, and they are sanguine of success,
 The work of securing the blanks has been entrusted to the highway improve ment committee, of which II. B. F'ui- lerton, of Brooklyn, is chairman. rms committee has among it's members the most experienced good roads workers in the country They are men Of influ- ence and will have no trouble in secur- ing an audience with the party leaders
 The decision of the League of Ameri- can Wheelmen in this undertaking is directly in line with it's policy to na- tionalize the good roads movement Previous to the beginning of this year the work of the league has been con- fined to municipal county and state az itation. The dignity Of a national
  duction of the bill in congress, by Sen ator Penrose, of Pennsylvania, in be- half of the Leauge of American Wheel men, asking for an appropriation Of i've million dollars for highway improve ment The insertion of the blanks in the party platforms will further digni- fy the good roads movement as being Of national importance
 The League of American Wheelmen contends, and justly it seems, that there are very few matters of more vital inn portance to the entire country than the one of good roads, When govern ment official, instructed to investigate the economical side of the question, re- ports there is an annual loss of five hundred million dollars to the country because of bad roads, it certainly ap pears the matterfs worthy of the seri- ous attention of the political parties and congress.
 The League of American Wheelmen has been very successful in persuading agrculturlsts of the economy of inn proved highways, and there are some or the strongest farmers organizations in the country now working in sympathy with the wheelmen. These will be asked to lend their aid to the request for the platforms and will be potent factors in the results.
 In past undertakings the League or American Wheelrnen has accomplished many difficult tasks in behalf of wheel men, and it will in this case, if necessa- ", show it's full strength; but it is not believed this will be necessary in a pro- position of such evident value.
