SEASONABLE HINTS.
Guard Your Health in Fall and Early
Winter.

A change from warm to cold is always
attended with more danger than from
a cold to a warm temperature. hence
the greater mortality from lung and
throat diseases at this season of the year
as compared with spring.
The best protection against colds is
not so much in extra clothing as in good
digestion.
If the digestion and circulation are
good, colds will be unknown
Poor digestion causes poor circulation
of the blood and when in this condition
severe colds are contracted on the slight
est provocatfon.
People who make a regular practice
of taking Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
after meals are free from colds, simply
because their digestion is perfect, the
heart strong and regular, and the whole
system fortified against disease.
1t requires little argument to convince
anyone that the best safeguard against
colds, pneumonia and changes Of tenn
perature is good stomach.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets taken after
meals are dissolved and mingling with
the food cause it to be promptly digest
ed and assimilated; they do this be-
cause they contain nothing but harm
less digestive elements, which digest
meat, eggs and other food even when
the stomach itself is weak and fiaccid-
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets make peo-
pie well and keep them well. and the
best habit you can acquire is to keep
daily use of them at meals to make the
digestive organs strong and vigorous

the building of the plants is in prog
ress. Within a few weeks or months,
plants will be commenced at Pueblo,
Colorado Springs, Ration, Newton, Ar
gentine and Topeka.
The plant at Topeka will probably be
the largest one on the entire system. 1t
will contain % pockets. Each pocket
will hold from three to five tons of
coal.
The coaling plant shown in the illus
tration is the one which has been built
at Lorenzo. 1t is 20-pocket plant.
In the small building which stands
the ground at the end opposite the in
cline is a 30-horse power gasoline
CINE. Power from this engine is COM
municated by belts and gearing to the
elevated structure above In this ele-
waited room is a strong but simple ma
chine which operates drum on which
is wound a heavy steel cable By means
of this cable, the cars of coal are pull
ed up the incline.
The new coaling plant is much higher
than the old style plants. To make
gradual enough slope for engine to
climb in pushing coal cars UP the in
cline would neceSSltate the waste of a
great deal of space and material. So
the cars are pulled up by the cable in
stead
Drop bottom coal cars are used ex-
clusively with the new pocket system
The Santa Fe is combining its purchase
of coal cars to the drop bottom pat
tern. The old fashioned cars are being
taken out of the company's service and
used for commercial coal. The railroad
loses no money by the change, for it
would be necessary to purchase new
cars of some kind. either the old style
or drop bottoms.
The car loaded with coal, after being
pulled up the incline, is dumped into
huge bin i'm mediately underneath. This
bin will hold from 100 to $50 tons of
coal. From the bin, the coal can be fed
down into the side pockets as needed.
The bin and the side pockets can all be
filled at once if necessary to have a
large supply of coal on hand. Locomo-
tives are coaled from the pockets as in
times past.
Instead of it being necessary to en-
ploy three or four men to unload coal
cars into the pockets with shovels, one
day man and one night man is the en-
tire force necessary at the new coal
plant. One man can run the engine,
pull up the cars, and dump the coal into
the bin.
It takes about 20 minutes to prI a
car containing 40 tons of coal up the
incline, and dump it into the bin.
All the coal plants will be run by gas
oline engines, except the one at La
Junta which is being run by compress

HAS TO TAKE 1T BACK.
An Association Under the Ban Found
to Be All Right.

AS soon as Attorney General GODDARD
returns from Washington it is expected
the ban will be taken off the Home
Cooperative association, a concern
which Bank Commissioner Morton AL
baugh started in to suppress. The
Home Cooperative has gone on doing
business just the same 1t builds homes
for its subscribers on a partnership
plan. Subscribers pay in fixed amounts
until there is enough money to build a
house. Then the lucky number gets the
house. He goes on paying his premi-
ums the same the others until his
house is paid for, and as fast as the
price of house is in the treasury some
subscriber gets it, This plan makes the
concern much of a fraternal loan part
nership, and as such differs from build
ing and loan corporations, and is not
regulated by Kansas law.
Mr.. GODDARD, it is said, has come to
this point of view, and the earlier
ruling from the attorney generals office
will be revoked.

Thousands of dollars are being spent
