SOUTHERN RAILWAY
 MUST HOLD UP WORK
A TEMPORARY INJUNCTION IS GRANTED TO OWNERS OF BLOCK 2oe TO STOP IMPRovEMENTs ON TWENTY-sEVENTH STREET.

The Southern Raffwey' onfpan5..- has been temporarily enjoined from raising the grade of it's roadbed Twenty seventh street between Eighth and Ninth tracks contemplated along the same street
 The action is taken on the petition of Henry Tompkins and Laurance Tompkins of Atlanta, minors, by their next friend Thomas Eggleston, which has been filed in the chancery court The bill sets forth that the two complanants in the case are the heirs of Nora P. Tompkins, de- ceased who. was the owner of block 209 of the city of Birmingham, lying between Eighth and Ninth avenues and between Twenty-sxth and Twenty-seventh streets. l. further shows that the named intestate had in the course of her life made im- provements on the property in question to something like the amount of s25,OOO, and that as a consequence the rental rom the tenements brings in S35S per month The complainants allege that the proposed work of the railroad company would de- tract in several ways from the value of the property, and allege that the said company has never condemned the prop erty for the work which they have al- ready begun.
 The petition seeks to have the railroad perpetually enjoined from constructing the proposed lines without first compen- sating the orators for the injury to their property.
 The Southern Railway company has filed answer to the complaint in which they ask that the bill be dismissed.

RAILROAD WORLD

The Wall Street Journal prints the fol- lowing estimate of the increases, gross and net shown by the railroads in the fiscal year ending June 30:
 The railways of the United States and Canada have completed the biggest year in their history. The year closed on Sat urday night last. and indications are that fl will result in gross earnings more than 10 per cent heavier than the earnings or 1s,,. which were themselves record.
 For the eleven months period z 7 v ways report to li,ae--naf' Street Journal sEross earnings $9O2 713, ,S59, against $SO3'sS6'- G53 This is an increase of S9S,S6,2 ,2Oo, or F g per cent.
 In net. the same railways report for the eleven months s292. .224,000 against $253 lO6,- ..o an increase of s39, ,11s,OOo, or l5.4 per cent
 If this percentage of increase in gross and net be applied to the interstate com merce commissions figures for 1905, the following results are obtained;
 Total gross 1905 ................S2,0l3l 0l3l11,oI0 Increase 1906 CPS per cenU.... 255cooOoo
 c.ross 1a06 .................$2, .$2, BPS IF, ,0c0 Total net 1905 ................... hS9o95'oOU Increase 1906 Q5.4 per cenD.... l06l9hoc0
 Net. 1906 .......,........'....'..''S Si'o 'so'ooo
 The meaning of these figures Is not easy to grasp. The increase of over $255 GOO GOO in gross revenues means that there has been added to the railways of the United States total gross earning capacity equal to the gross earning capacity. of the Chi- cago and Northwestern the St. Paul, the Rock Island. the Burlington and the H. linois Central put together. The increase indicated in net earnings of the American railways Is as large as the net earnings of the five railways men tioned above, with the Union Pacific ada ed in.
 These facts and figures may be taken as a fair measure of the prosperity that has come to the railways of the United States this past fiscal year.
 Full reports of the separate railways for that period are not yet forthcoming. A good many of them have reported their earnings for the eleven months ending May 31 and an additional number of the railroads have reported gross up to the end of the third week in June. From

WOman's Trials.

The bitter trail in woman's life Is to be childless. Who can tell how hard the struggle may have been ere she learnt to resign herself to her lonely lot? The ab- sence of this link to bind marital life together, the absence of this one pledge to mutual affection is common disap- pointment. Many unfortunate couples become estranged thereby. Even if they do not drift apart, one may read the whole extent of their disappointment in the eyes of such childless couple when they rest on the children of others To them the largest family does not seem too numerous.
 In many cases of barrenness or child lessness the obstacle to collaborating is easily removed by the cure of weakness on the part of the woman. Dr. Pierce's Fa- vorite Prescription has been the means of restoring health and fruitfulness to many a barren woman, to the great joy of the household In other. but rare cases, the obstruction to the bearing of children has been found to be of a surgical character, but easily removable by painless operative treatment at the Invalids' Hotel and Sur gical Institute, Buffalo. N. Y., over which Dr. Pierce of the "Fayorite PrescriptionD fame presides. In all cases where chil- dren are desired and are absent. an effort should be made to find out the real cause, since it is generally so easily removed by proper treatment.
 In all the various weaknesses, displace- menus, prOidpsus. llludunatlUn and de- bilitating, catarrhal drains and in all cases of nervousness and debility, Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is the most efficient remedy that can possibly be used It has to it's credit hundreds of thousands of cures more in fact than any other remedy put up for sale through druggists, especially for woman's use. The ingredi- ents of which the "Favorite Prescription is composed have received the most positive endorsement from the leading medical writers on MdteTid Medicd of all the several schools of practice. All the ingredients are printed in plain English on the wrapper enclosing the bottle, SO that any woman making use of this famous medicine may know exactly what she Is taking. Dr. Pierce takes his pa- tients into his full confidence. which he can afford to do as the formula after which the "Favorite Prescription is fnation.
