An Error Corrected,

Some of the newspapers published a
circular of the Wabash, which stated
that the Wabash could not undertake
to handle any trains of foreign lines to
their Worlds Fair Station, which gave
rise to the impression that no trains
would be handled direct to the Wabash
Station at the Fair Grounds.
The G. IL. & ID. Passenger Depart
ment wrote to the Wabash Manage
ment about the matter and received q
letter stating eve do not state that
we Will not handle our own trains,
and, of course, your train leaving
Cincinnati is a Wabash trair after 1t
passes Decatur, Ill. The restriction
simply applies to trains of other rail
roads that do not come i'll over the
Wabash" ."

A disordered stomach may cause no
end of trouble. When the stomach
fails to perform its functions the
bowels become deranged, the liver and
kidneys congested, causing numerous
diseases, the most fatal of which are
painless and therefore the more to be
dreaded. The important thing is to
restore the stomach and liver to a
healthy condition, and for this pur-
pose no better preparation can be
used than Chamberlain Stomach and

Consumption

The only kind Of consump-
ton to fear is "neglected
consumption"
People are learning that con-
sumption is curable disease.
1t is neglected consumption
that is so often incurable.
At the faintest suspicion of
consumption get a bottle of
SCOTS Emulsion and begin
regular doses.
The use of SCOTS Emulsion
at once, has, in thousands Of
cases, turned the balance in
favor of health.
Neglected consumption does
not exist where SCOTS Emul-
sion is.

of the service that Arthur Morris did

which once charmed him, now inspired

felt unalloyed hatred. and for Gen.
Garden a contempt which he did not

The best way to live to produce
health and happiness and to prolong

problem Has any progress been made
toward its solution2 Dr. Oliver Fer
guson. well known British scientist
in recent lecture at oxford, said,
For those happy people who shall
be living a hundred years hence there
probably no longer will be any dread of
infection, for perhaps before then

lie maintained that the average
length OF life has been extended about
ten years within the last sixty. but
the proof was apparently not furnished.
On the contrary. a royal commission
investigating that subject tn eonnec-
ton with the army. found a very seri-
ous deterioration in the British race.
In this case proof was furnished in the
increased dffficulty OF obtaining army
recruits and in the character Of the re-
cruits when obtained.
Premier Baifour found an explana-
ton In the emigration from Great Brit
ain and in the removal of the best OF

cities. Whatever the explanation, there
is no question that there has been an
impairment OF the race In England
This does not appear TO agree with DIR.
