Sh0rttv


The report is current in FairInont
that the Wabash contractors are
now ready to begin work on the
state line end of the Buckhannon

Unless she Is a healthy mother. No
woman can. If the baby has drained
her vitality; If its care is a tax; If, in
short, the baby is a burden instead Of q
blessing, how can she enjoy IT. She
loves it, but she cannot feed it. She
yearns for it, but has not the strength
to fondle it.
There is nothing more beautiful in the
world than healthy mother and her
healthy child. The madonna is the
highest reach of human art In the
serene strength which art gives to the
typical mother and child there is distinct
denial of suffering and weakness as a
necessity of motherhood. But how few
women are there to whom motherhood
is naturally an abiding Joy. In how
many cases a woman dates her loss of
health from the birth OF her child To
all such suffering women DIR. Pierce's Fa-
yorite Prescription comes as yeritable
god-send. 1t prepares the mother for
her hour Of trial, tranquilizes her nerves,
encourages her appetite, and brings her
restful sleep. 1t makes the baby's adj
vent practically painless, and gives the
mother abundant strength to nurse and
rourisii her child.
Every claim made for wFayorite Pre-
scription is supported by the testimon-
ials of wives and mothers, thousands in
number, and covering in their several
experiences the whole range of womanly
suffering. In great number of cases
after the utter failure of all doctors and
medicines, DIR. Pierce's Favorite Pre-
scription, tried as last resort, has eff
fected perfect and permanent cure.
Sick women are invited to consult DR..
Pierce by letter free. All womanly con-
fdences held under the seal of strict
professional privacy. Address DIR. r. ".
Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y.
There is no alcohol in wFavorite Pre-
scriptionD and it is entirely free from
opium, cocaine, and all other narcotics.

Of the large army of appointments
that are to be made under the new
Department of Commerce ard Labor,
the average pay of each will be nearly
$1,000. This shows what a large num-
Der of good paying places are at the
disposal of Republican Senators and
Congressman. Those who want posi-
ton at the national capital, whore the
work is comparatively easy AMI the
hours short-from to 4-shouid at
once apply and urge their friends TO
write to the Senators and Representa-
tlves from their States, to have them
appointed. There are a large number.
probably 10, examiners and special ex-
aminers, $1,000 and expenses, also a
number of such places as storekceper,
$1,000; telegraph operator, $780, tele-
phone operator, $1,000; cabinetmakers
and carpenters, $1,000; engineer, 81, 400;
mail messengers, $1,000, and others,
too numerous to mention, all outside of
the civil service.
Local politicians have a fine chance
to press their political claims for such
places as chiefs of divisions, with a
salary of $1,000 or $1,000, of which
there are a large number to be APP
pointed. AS the trusts are principally
interested in these latter named offices,
only those should apply who have not
openly expressed an opinion adverse
to the trusts for the antecedents of
applicants. will be closely investigated.
Now is the time to strike for good
position. Democrats, it is needless to
say, need not apply.

Chicago Judge Instructs a Jury to
Acquit the Coal Rarons.
Judge Chetlain, sitting in Chicago, put
an end to the prosecution of the coal OPP
orators indicted by the recent special
grand jury for illegal combination and
conspiracy in restraint of public trade
On the ground that the transactions
which formed the basis of the charges
were interstate commerce, and, as such,
the case was taken away from the jury
on an instruction to return a verdict Of
mot guilty" and the defendants were
set at liberty. Judge Chetain's decision
that he was without jurisdiction in the
matter was, he said, given with much re-
luctance.
The defendants and their counsel, ac-
cording to a dispatch, were the happiest
crowd of men that ever filed out of a
criminal court with verdict in their
favor. When, during the course of Judge
Chetlain's reading, it became apparent
that he was to rule adversely to the
State, their spirits rose 10 such an alti-
tude That it was with Glfiicuty that they
were restrained
The acton of the court came as n sur
prise 70 many who have followed the
case and was not relished by the prose-
cution, as it figured it had builded up a
strong case. Judge Chetlain, however,
decided that the defendants were amen
able to the law, but said that they must
be prosecuted, if prosecuted further at
all, in the United States courts, as The
State courts had no Jurisdiction.
