Cannot Compete With Russia.

1t may be interesting to know that
Within Russia's domain the Standard
Oil Company is meeting some of the
most serious opposition of its long
life OF plunder. This giant trust sup
plies over 80 per cent, of the foreign
demand for Oil. 1t has competed with
the large oil interests of Russia, which
are controlled by the Rothschilds and
the Nobel Brothers, but 1t has never
overpowered them. This is due to the
Russian laws regulating foreign trade
nterests.-George Weise, in Success.

Woman is often referred to by man as
"doubling his Joys and halving his sorrows.'
That may be complimentary but it would
seem to be rather hard on the woman. For
IN plain terms il means that where things are
going we'll with the man his wife makes them
90 better. But when things are going i'll
with him, he expects the wife to share half
his burden. And there's more truth than
poetry in this precenlaticn of masculine sci.
hshness Men don't appreciate the fact that
the strain OF motherhood alone is burden
bigger than all the loads that rest upon male
shoulders. They see the wife grow thin,
pale, nervous withou a thought that she is
overburdened Among the pleasant letters

Periodic
aims.

DIR. Miles Anti-Pain Pills
are a most remarkable remedy
for the relief of periodic pains,
backache, nervous or sick head
ache, or any of the distress
ing aches and pains that cause
women so much suffering.
AS pain is weakening, and
leaves the system in an ex-
hausted condition, it is wrong
to suffer a moment longer than
necessary, and you should take
the Anti-Pain Pills on first in
dication of an attack.
If taken as directed you may
have entire confidence in their
effectiveness, as well as in the
fact that they will leave no dis
agreeable after-effects.
They contain no morphine,
opium, chloral, cocaine or other
dangerous drugs.
For a long time / have suffered
greatly with spells Of backache, that
seem almost more than l can endure.
These attacks come on every month.

WORK IS PROGRESSING
Consolidated Railroad Just Finished
 Big Freight House at Hartford.

Hartford. Sept 6.-The completion in Hartford this week of one of the two gigantic Morgan freight houses of the New York, New Haven and Hart ford marks a long step toward the con summation of the plans of the road by which Hartford and all tributary ter ritory will be benefited by one of the finest freight handling systems in the country.
 The plans by which Hartford Is to gain this new freight service include Lot only the building of two freight houses 800 feet long, but also the lay ing of nearly fifteen miles of new tracks, switches and siding, with all the necessary grading and filling. By this means the two new freight houses, through which all of Hartford's freight will pass, will have direct connection with the Hartford, the Highland and the Valley branch divisions, insuring quick handling of all freight. These enormous new freight houses with their tributary track will afford facili- ties for freight handling which pre- clude any possibility of congestion in the city even in winter months, when on account of the closing of the river rail traffic is heaviest.
 Of the two freight houses, that just fiEished, which is designed for out going freight. is SO feet long by thir- ty-five feet wide, extending north from Morgan to Pleasant street. The in coming freight house. fifty feet wide and of equal length, lies parallel to it, with four tracks and an 800 feet trans fer shed between. The floor space for the accommodation of freight will be slightly under two acres. Each build ing is divided into five compartments by transverse brick fire walls. Offices for the freight agent. chief clerk, freight clerks and telephone exchange are provided in the end of each build ing.
 The incoming freight house. together with granite block pavement on the wagon delivery roads. is to be finished not later than the 18th of October. and the whole plan, with it's great increase of trackage facilities, which when con. pleted will provide Hartford with a freight plant with daily capacity O. l25 cars. is to be rushed to an early completion.

HAMILTON PARK
Nsw Bridge Over 'sClay Pool" Aimest
 Completed.

The new concrete bridge which is being built at Hamilton park over what is known as the Clay Pool" Is almost completed. Superintendent Walker and his men have been en- gagged in working on 1t for about six weeks on and off and it will be a source of pleasure to them when 1t is finished. It is fine bridge, built en- tirely of cement and stones. All the stones are black with the exception of a white one on either side on winch will be the letter "H,' for Hamilton. The park never looked prettier than at the present time and a walk through 1t. especially towards evening, is indeed interesting. The flower beds and lawn at the entrance are in all their grandeur now and 1t will pay you to visit the place just to see them alone. before the frost sets in.
 As the summer draws to an end it must be pleasing for Superintendent Walker to look back and think about the large crowds which have visited the place during the summer. He has certainly done large amount of work for the money he had at hand and too much praise cannot he given him and his men, The swimming pool for the children has been a huge success and it is desired by many to see one there next year for adults. All that ts necessary is about one thousand dol lars to fix up place. and it would he expending money to a good purpose. The band concerts have attracted large crowds, but there would prob ably be more appreciated if they were given on Sunday.
 The walks and drives are in excel lent condition. and the trees which have been covered over with tar and cement are growing nicely. Much at tention has been given to this work and many new ones have been plant ed. Engineer Cairns is deeply inter- ested in the tree question. Much more money should be appropriated the coming year than the past for the pur- pose of carrying on the work in the park. The appropriation has never been large and many projects which would have been undertaken had to be shelved because of the scarcity of funds. City Engineer Cairns has ta- ken almost as great an interest in the place as Mir Walker. and the two have with their united efforts made the grounds both useful and attractive, and they may well be proud of their work.
