The Young Physician.
WHAT HIS EXPERIENCE PROVED.

In the early sixties 1t was usually the
duty of practicing physician TO ride
many miles every day on his regular
round of visits upon his patients. In
those days young man who had received
Il splendid medical training in one of the
best medical colleges of that day was ac-
customcd to ride ten. twenty or thirty
miles or more visiting the sick and
afflicted. His success was soon phenom-
email. Doctors and families called him for
consultation to towns at considerable dis
tanccs by rail. One of his specialties was
the cure of those distressing diseases of
women. He had early discovered that
by combining the vegetable extract of
the following medicinal plants in just the
right proportion without the use of alco-
hol-his prescription invariably cured
such cases. Later. in order to place this
remedy before the public in II shape easily
to be procured, he established II labora-
tory at Buffalo. n. V, where regularly
qualified chemists were put in charge to
accurately prepare his prescription and
put il in shape for shipment to all parts
Of the United States. This remedy, which
he named Dr. Pierce's Favoritc Prcscrip-

Death of Judge Toureee.

Bordeaux, May 22.-Judge Albion
Vinegar Tourgee of Mayville. New
York. American consul here, died yes
terday of acute uraemia, which re-
suited from an old wound, aged sixty
seven years. Judge Tourgee was taken
seriously i'll some months ago, but his
condition afterward improved and 1t
was believed his recovery was prob
able. Recently, however, the disease
took another serious turn and Judge
Tourgee fingered until this morning.
Judge Tourgee came to Colorado In
1880 and in the spring of that year
was editor of the Denver Times, then
published by the late r. w. Woodbury..
Judge Tourgee remained with the pa
per but short time. He made many
fast friends in Denver and throughout
the state. While in Colorado he
wrote his famous book, Bricks With
out Straw which had large sale.

Advocate Light Branch Roads.

The resolutions adopted by the In
ternational Railway Congress at Wash
ington commend light railways. or
branch roads, to the careful attention
of public authorities. The report says:
Their construction makes it posi-
BILE to encourage the progress and de-
velopment of districts which have pre-
viously remained in the background.
and 1t is accordingly not only the in
tent but the duty of the governments
TO assist them. 1t is desirable, there
fore. not to adhere TO old types and
old methods of construction. operation
and regulation. but to introduce every
facility possible. adaptable to local
needs and available resources.
1T is also desirable that state gov
ernment and local authorities should
accord to light railways, either under
the form of subsidies, relaxation of re-
uuirements or other methods of assist
ance. the support which they need for
construction and for operation. so that
all parts of the country be adequately
served"
The congress expressed the wish
that the present tendency OF legisla-
ton to establish more liberal regula-
tions may become more general and
efforts of the management to equip
their light traffic lines with a more
economical organization, which prom
Use TO give remarkable results. be con-

SIMPLE WALL DECORATIONS.
New Material and New Ideas for the
Decoration of Homes.

The styles of home decorations have
completely changed in the last lew
years, and it is pleasant to say that
they have changed for the better.
Time was when we hung monstrous
patterns printed on paper against our
walls, and considered them more or
less pleasantly. 1t would hardly be falr
to say that we considered them beau
tiful or artistic. But they were the
vogue and were put on. The time
has come when, with our better meth
ods for interior decoration, better ef-
fects can be secured.
In wall coverings, whether they be
of paint, or of kalsomine, or or Ala
bastine-whatever the material used
to cover the wall-the thing desired Is
that which has the greatest covering
power, as well as permanency ana
beauty of color. Alabastine. wall
covering ground from Alabaster rock
which means a hard white rock-is
the ideal covering for a wall.
The most beautiful wall decorations
in the world are those which are laid
on with the brush. The mural designs
in our large public buildings, and the
frescoed designs in the large cathe-
drals and churches, have perma-
nency and an art of which wall paper
is but a cheap imitation. These mural
schemes and frescoed designs can be
brought within the reach OF the every
day home. They can be done with
Alabastine, which is permanent in its
coloring. 1t does not rub on, and it
has the soft effect of pastelle.
A great many people defer the re-
decorating OF their rooms not only
because of the expense but because
of the discomfort of it. With Alabas-
tine there need be no discomfort and
there can be no muss, for all that is
needed is to lay a sheet or canvas on
the floor, have your man come in with
a pail, make the solution and simply
brush it on the wall. That is all there
is to it, and the room is perfectly
clean and thoroughly renovated.

STRIKE IS CONTINUED
BECAUSE OF EXPRESS DRIVERS.
Chicago Teamsters' Union Declare
Peace Negotiations off Because Ex-
press Drivers Are Left Out.

Chicago. May 21.-The strike OF the
teamsters. instead of being declared
off, will be spread to greater proper
tions. This was decided last night by
the members of the teamsters' joint
council. which was in session until
midnight
The council met at o'clock to hear
the report of the negotiations that had
been in progress with the employers
throughout the day. They agreed to
all the stipulations of the employers
with the exception of that which de-
clared that the drivers of the express
companies should not be taken back.
This was the rock upon which the
peace program was wrecked, and after
several hours of debate 1t was decided
that the Teamsters' union could not
leave the express drivers to make a
lone fight, but must stand by them.
1t was decided to call off the ne
gotiations and prepare for further
fight
The sense of the meeting was ex-
pressed in the following statement.
which was given out as defining the
position of the teamsters:
1T is due to the public and members
of the Transfers organization that a
statement be issued relative to our po-
sition in refusing to accept the prop
osition submitted by the Employers
association. The Employers associa-
tion offered proposition which might
have received favorable considera-
tion from the strikers and their com
mittee providing it carried with it no
proviso that would act as a detriment
to any Part of our organization.
Their proposition, however, carried
with it that the strike against the rail
way express companies be declared oil
without those companies agreeing to
the proposition made by the employers
or any other proposition, they having
made the statement that they had held
a meeting and decided that no strikers
would ever again be re-employed as
workmen for the railway express COM
panies-in fact, to establish blacklist
against all of their former employees.
This the Teamsters' organization,
or its officials. could not accept.
I'VE believe that the railway eX-
press companies are not JUSTIFIED in
their refusal to reinstate any OF their
former employees.
"Under these conditions it is incum-
bent upon the members of the Team
sters organization to continue the
strike until such time as the express
companies will agree to the same con
ditions as those offered by the Employ
ers' association"
