MOnkeys

"All well--all happy-lots

~eport from the monkey cage
f Barnum's Circus ever since

to buy new ones.
One day a keeper accident

Emulsion near the monkey
cage and the monkeys eagerly
Tapped it up from the floor.
This suggested the idea that it
might do them good. Since
then the monkeys have received
regular doses and the keepers
report very few deaths from
consumption. OF course it's
cheaper to buy SCOTS Emul.

A Cure for Rheumatism.

Bridgeport, Wash, Oct. 20.-Rheu-
matism and Kidney Trouble seem to be
the prevailing ailments in this territory
and particularly in Douglas County.
A remarkable and plainly sure cure
has, however, recently been introduced.
It is called Dodd's Kidney Pills and
although but short time on the mar
ket, it has already worked many won
derful cures.
One of the most striking of these is
that Of Mr.. John Higgins, who for Il
long time suffered with rheumatism
and Kidney Trouble. The pains Of
these diseases had combined to make
his life very miserable indeed, AM lie
could get nothing to do him any good
till he heard of this new remedy. He
tells his experience with it in these
words:
"Dodd's Kidney Pills have done more
for my Rheumatism and Kidney Trou-
BILE than anything else l have ever
used. There is more virtue in them
than in any other medicine and will
always highly recommend them to all
of my friends"

Consul General Mason at Berlin re.

THE IRON MARKET.
Review Of the Week by Cleveland
Publication.

Cleveland O.. March 13-The iron
Trade Review, in it's current issue, says,
THE excitement that showed in the pig
iron market two and three weeks ago is
not in evidence now. 1t would appear
that on foundry iron the product Is more
fully sold for 1902 than some recent hg-
ures indicated, but buyers are not stam-
peding the market to cover their wants
The conditions are not altogether easy 10
diagnose, and the two views of producers
are still exemplified in selling polcies--on
the one hand a conservatvely maintained
price; side by side with 1T, the policy OF
asking advances as the urgency OF inqui-
ries suggests.
ut Is fact. however. that the bulk
of iron now being sold Is on rising scale
of prices. So far as the Pittsburg district
Is concerned-and its influence on the sit
uation Is almost commanding-the pros
poets for early betterment in the freight
movement are not encouraging. Mean
time prices are being effected and the
holding down process is not fully success
full.
Among recent pig iron business In the
Central West are purchasers of basic

that the basic for Connellsville will be

TO PREVENT COLLISIONS.
Device Invented by Young Men of
Tuscumbia and Sheffield.

Tuscumbia, March 13 -(Special.)--C x.
Jones of this city. train dispatcher on the
Memphis Division of the Southern Rail-
road and r. II. Briggs, Jr.. of Sheffield.
master mechanic of the Northern Ala
bama Railroad. have invented an auto
matte train signal and train stopping
device, which, 1t is claimed, will effectual-
ly prevent train collisions. The mechan-
ism Is so constructed and arranged that
alarm is sounded within one mile of any
predetermined siding or station. and the
train is stopped at the switch of the
siding by the automatic application of the
air brakes The device is very simple in
construction, consisting of an upright
shaft attached to the locomotive. the
upper part of which is threaded carry
ing a nut upwards as the shaft is re-
volved. The lower part Of the shaft is
provided with four lateral arms which
are turned by becoming engaged with
tapperets or small iron posts placed at
desired points in the ends of the cross
ties outside of the track rails. securely
fastened so as to prevent any possibility
of being DETECTED removed. The up
per part of the nut is provided with an
indicator which travels over n board
containing the names Of the various sid
ings or stations in their proper order
The lower part of the nut is provided
with an indicator which is easily and
quickly adjusted to any siding or station
desired, to effect an alarm signal and
subsequently, the application of the air
brakes and 2 consequent stop of the
train.
The device has been carefully and
critically examined by expert mechanics
and railway men who unhesitatingly pro-
nounce it a success. and with its intro
duction and operation on the various rail-
roads throughout the country the fearful
head-end collision will become a thing
of the past.
