IT IS IN THE BLOOD
Neither Liniment nor Ointment
Will Reach Reconsideration
Mr.. Stephens on Was Cured.

To attempt to cure rheumatism by
external applications is a foolish waste
of time. The seat of the disease is in
the blood, and while the sufferer Is
rubbing lotions and grease on the skin
the poison in the circulation is increas-
ing and being distributed to every joint
and muscle of the body.
Delays in adopting a sensible treat
ment are dangerous because rheuma-
tism may at any moment reach the
heart and prove fatal. The only safe
course for rheumatic sufferers is to get
the best possible blood remedy at once
Mr Stephenson's experience with this
obstinate and distressing affection is
that of hundreds who treat it at first as
re it were confined to the part where it
h npears, and superficial. He says:
About a year ago I was attacked by
severe rheumatic pains in my left
shoulder. The pains were worse in wet
weather and at these periods caused me
the greatest suffering. I tried a number
of treatments and ointments but they
failed to alleviate the palms,
Then he realized that the cause must
be deeper and the pain only a surface
Indication a symptom of a hidden dis
order that must be sought out and cor
rected by an internal remedy. He aGSma
Il had heard DR.. Williams Pink Pills
for Pale People recommended as a cure
for rheumatism, and when found that
1 was getting no relief from applica-
tions, 1 made up my mind that would
try them. Before the first box was
gone I noticed that the pains were be-
coming less frequent and that they
were not so severe as before. After the
second box had been used up 1 was en-
tirely free from discomfort and 1 have
had no traces of rheumatism since"
The change in treatment proved by
almost immediate results that it was
based on the right theory, and the
quickness with which the improvement
proceeded to a perfect cure showed that
publication and enrichment of his
blood.
People with inf1amed and aching
joints, or painful muscles; people who
shuttle about with the aid of a cane or
a crutch and cry, Oh! at every slight
jar, are constantly asking, What is
the best thing for rheumatism ?''
DIR. Williams Pink Pills. is the
answer of Mr.. Thomas Stephenson, of
No. lis Greenwood street, Springfield
Mass; Mr.. j. G. Meukel, of No. 1915
Jackson avenue, Dubuque, Iowa; Mr..
c. H. Hickey, of No. Main street,
Harris, r. l.; Mr. Henry Story, of No.
532 Muskingum avenue, GAINESVILLE,
Ohio, and scores of others who speak
from actual experience.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are without
doubt the best of all blood remedies.
Their record in the curing of cases of
anaemia alone would be convincing
lasting cures in rheumatism. They do
not merely deaden the ache, but they
expel the poison from the blood. These
pills are sold by all druggists.

Mr.. Parker went to Cincinnati in
September to assume charge of the
consolidated traffic departments of the
Cincinnati, Hamilton & Dayton, Pere
Marquette and Chicago, Cincinnati &
Louisville roads. He was known as
one of the foremost traffic experts in
the country and was possessed of a
wonderful faculty for organization,
which made his connection with the
zimmerman lines particularly valuable
during the period of reorganization.
Mr.. Parker spent many years of
his busy life in st. Louis and his fam
lily resided there. He first became con-
nected with the railroad service as an
and subsequently came to Topeka as
chief clerk in the freight department.
He next went to Kansas as assistant
general freight agent of the Santa Fe.
Then he was called to Chicago and
later back to Topeka as general
freight agent of the Gould lines, and
was subsequently promoted to freight
traffic manager of the Missouri Pa
cihc-Iron Mountain system. After re-
signing from the Gould lines he &C
cepted the craftsmanship of the West
ern trunk lines freight committee in
Chicago. Afterward he was called
again to ST. Louis to take the helm of
the Merchants traffic bureau. He
next went to Colorado and assumed
charge of the various traffic associa-
tons in Denver. He was next elected
vice president and traffic manager of
His last active work was with the con-
solidated Pere Marquette system, in
charge of traffic, and with title of
vice president

THE BELEN CUT OFF.
Believed Santa Fe Is Preparing to
Complete This Important Link.

Complete This Important Link.
That the Santa Fe company proposes
| making it's Panhandle line an import
ant transcontinentaI railroad is no long
| in touch with the company'S operations
in that direction, says the Wichita
Eagle.
While it may be several years before
| this line is made the principal route 20
California and the coast, it will be a
f1rst-class line in a shorter time and
even this winter will be made one OF
the best pieces of track the company
has. Very light steel was laid on the
Panhandle line when that part of the
road was built, and fast trains cannot
go over that route with safety. The
company is already remedying this,
however, by taking up the light rails
and replacing them with good, &C.
pound steel. This work is already in
all that line to Roswell, New Mexico,
is we'll equipped for fast trains includ-
ing better bridges and thorough ball
lasting.
The 66-pound rails that were first or
dered for the line through Wichita are
being shipped to the Panhandle division
and used as fast as it arrives there. A
great deal of this material was stored
in Wichita and it is being shipped out
now as fast as it can be loaded. 1t is
also said here that as soon as the
present line in the Panhandle is re-
built a line will be built from Roswell
to connect with the Santa Fe Central,
giving direct connection to Belen, near
Albuquerque, and that as soon as that
line is completed the heaviest traffic of
the Santa Fe to California will go over
this route instead of through Colorado
and the Ration mountains.
1t is said that this move of the Santa
Fee explains the efforts of the company
to make it's line through Wichita to
Texas one of the best on the system.
The work of replacing the light steel
with new 76-pound rails is progressing
as rapidly as men can do the work, and
will reach Wichita within two months.
A great deal of work has already been
done south of Wichita and gangs were
put to work at Mulvane yesterday
which will work north to meet the gang
from Newton at Wichita.
All indications point to the fact that
the Santa FNe expects to make it's south
ern lines more important than the Col
Orado and present California lines, and
as the heavy traffic to Texas and the
Gulf, as we'll as to California and
Mexico, will pass through this city, this
line will be made as nearly perfect as
possible.
The fact that the Santa Fe is to build
a new north and south line in Texas
connecting San Antonio when the Pan
handle line, also bears out this theory,
but the fact that the company is al
ready rebuilding the Texas and Pan
handle lines is sufficient evidence that
it proposes to make all it's southwest
ern lines more important.

NEED RAILROAD MEN.
III. L. Magee of the Wabash Talks of
Opportunities.

Kansas City, Mo, Nov. 1S.-"The
railroads of this country are as much
in need of capable young railroad men
as the young men are in need of re-
sponsible railroad positions. There is
room for all. and if a young man
proves that he is valuable to a rail-
road he will be put in the place where
he belongs. Valuable men are not
made-they make themselves"
This is what H. L. Magee of ST.
Louis, general superintendent of the
Wabash railway, said as he sat in his
private car at the union depot. Look
ing south from his car window to-
wards the Burlington tracks, he said
More than twenty-five years ago
superintendent the construction work
of those yards. Old Tom Corrigan was
the contractor and I was working as
the general foreman, at a salary
well, it was not large. When these
yards were finished they made me
master of them. I took the place with
the understanding that the roadmas-
ter'S authority ended at Harlem.
Il do not care what line of business
a, young man may be in," Mr.. Magee
said, eff he applies himself properly
he will become valuable to his en-
ployer- There is room at the top for
everyone. Grumbling about a present
position will do no good. Dig in and
do the work-not the routine work,
but look ahead where you can do a
little more; reach out and learn more.
1t is policy which will take any
young man to the front. The railroads
want such men and the railroads will
pay such men for their work.

OFFICIALS USE PASSES.

Railway company of Texas, covering the
month of July. 1t shows that during that
month public officials Travelled 7S, 742 miles
on that road on free passes. The total
number of miles Travelled on the road dur
ing the month by public officials, en-
ployeS and others was 1924, S43.
A cursory investigation of the free pass
report of Texas railroads, also filed with
the commission, shows that the total
number of miles travelled by public Off
Gals in this state on free passes is stu
timated that the total number of miles
Travelled each year by public officials on
the Texas lines without paying one cent
when the legislature is in session this
mileage is greatly increased, probably
doubled for the reason that in every leg

seem to think that it is part of their Off
cial duty to ride up and down the railroad
lines of the state on their pasteboardS

PUTTING 1T STRONG
But Doesn't II Look Reasonable I

This may read as though we were
putting it a little strong, because it is
generally thought by the majority of
people that Dyspepsia in it's chronic
form is incurabIe or practically so. But
we have long since shown that Dyspep-
STA is durable, nor is it such q difficult
matter as at first appears.
The trouble with DySpepticS is that
they are continually dieting, starving
themselves, or going to opposite ex-
treme, or else deluging the already
overburdened stomach with ''bitters, s.

ably increase the difficulty even if in
some cases they do give a slight, tenn

This is a great secret and this is also
the secret of the uniform success of

comparatively new remedy, but its sue

to it's merit.
The Tablets will digest the food any
way, regardless of condition OF stom-

ing to directions is to eat an album
dance of good, wholesome food and use
the tablets before and after each meal,
and the result will be that the food will

Dyspepsia may be, because as before
stated, the tablets will digest the food
even if the stomach is wholly inactive.

Railway Commissioners Adjourn at
Birmingham.
Birmingham, Ala, Nov. 18.-The six
tenth annual convention of the Ma
tional Association of Railway Com
misSioners has ended the members
have started on an excursion tour of
Old Mexico. 1t was determined to NEE
August 16 next year at Deadwood, S.
D., and go from there to Portland, wher
the convention will be concluded. Off
GERS were elected as follows: President,
Ira B. Mills, Minnesota; first vice pres
ident, James S. Neville, Illinois; second
vice president, w. G. Smith, South Da-
kota; secretary, Edward A. Moseley,
Washington, D. c.; assistant secretary,
Martin S. Decker, Washington.
Government ownership of railroads
was vigorously opposed at the conven-
ton.
"A political party with the patron
age afforded by the railroads and the
appointment of over a million employees
could not only perpetuate itself in
power, but in a few years could build
a monarchy, and the now boosted free
institutions would become the laughing
stock of nations" declared J. v. Smith,
president of the association, and chair
man of the railroad commission of Ala
bana.
Government supervision, reasonabl
and justly administered, and not gov
eminent ownership, is the solution of
the problem of railroad combinations,
continued Mr.. Smith. Let the railroad
combine and combine until every mile
is included in one vast system, and 1
have sufficient confidence in our gov
eminent to believe that under proper
supervision these combinations could
be made a blessing instead of a curse
to our nation"
Railroad commissioners and deputy
commissioners from nearly every state
in the union were present at the meet
ing, and the opposition of President
Smith to government ownership of rail
roads was enthusiastically Endorsed.
