which has been expected for sew
eral years, or ever since the talk
of the Northwestern system being
extended to a terminal on the
Pacific coast. 1t is presumed
that the recent action of the
Union Pacific in extending to the
Milwaukee system the same priv
ilege as those enjoyed by the
Northwestern has tendency to
hasten matters in this particular.
The official announcement TO
the effect the Northwestern will
increase its capital stock to the
extent of $9,O0O,OOO indicates that
some radical move is contemplate
ed by the management Of this
great system. The expenditure
of small portion of the money to
be realized from the increased
capital stock would more than
build the Northwestern line from
Casper, Wyo, to Ogden.

A Good Thing

German Syrup is the special prescrip-
ton of DR. A Boschee, celebrated Ger
man physician, and is acknowledged
to be one of the most fortunate discov-
cries in medicine. 1t quickly cures
coughs, colds and all lung troubles of
the severest nature, removing, as it
does, the cause of the affection and
leaving the parts in a strong and
healthy condition. 1t is not an exper
mental medicine, but has stood the
test of years, giving satisfaction in
every case. which its rapidly increasing
sale every season confirms. Two mill
ion bottles sold annually. Boschee's
German Syrup was introduced in the
United States in 1868, and is now sold
in every town and village in the civil
lied world. Three doses will relieve
any ordinary cough. Price IS cents.
