FRENCH BIRTH RATE DECREASES
Over Ten Thousand Fewer Infants Born in
1905 than in 1904.

Paris Nov. u.-Public attention has again been
drawn TO the nationa! peril involved in the oon-
stantly diminishing birth rate by the publication or
the vital statistics for 1906. The births in France for
that year numbered SO7 90, showing a decrease OF
crease Is not to be found IN a reduction OF the
nonoer or marriages, n which the statistics show
from the aversion OF the French people to raise
large families ~
The national association which is studying this
subject has reached the conclusion that It is neces

raises moro than three children merits and is en-

ALL-STEEL CARS IN DEMAND.
They Are Rapidly Becoming the STAN
dard Equipment.

Pittsburg, Pa, March I'm the re-
port of the Pressed Steel Car company
for the year 1905, President Hofstot
says that of the cars ordered by the
railroads In the United States in 1905
almost so per cent were all-steel or
steel under frame construction. and
that this class of rolling stock is rap
Idly becoming the standard for rail-
road equipment.
Less than 10 years ago the company
built the first all-steel car used in the
regular freight traffic, while at the
end of 1905 there were approximately
500, 900 all-steel and steel under frame
cars in use. The all-steel passenger
car, having the general endorsement
of both steam and electric lines. should
make its way rapidly into the public
favor. Works for the construction of
passenger cars separate from the
freight car shops are now almost COM
pleted. and soon will be in actual op-
Grafton. as number of orders have
already been booked for all-steel
steam and electric cars.
The report says that the operation
II the forge plants at Allegheny has
been satisfactory, and the difficulties
heretofore experienced in procuring a
proper supply of forgings have been
eliminated. The building of a forge
plant at McKee's Rocks has been or
dered, and this, when finished, will
relieve the forge situation and make
the company independent of outside
manufacturers. 1t was decided not to
renew operations in Joliet, ILL.,, but to
remove all the machinery that could
be profitably employed to Allegheny
and McKees Rocks to be used in con-
neotion with the additions to increase
the output of these plants. With
these additions and improvements the
McKee's Rock plant will have its
daily output increased to so cars.

CONSUMPTION INCREASING.
Average Now Is Four Hundred Deaths
Per Day.

Does the reader of this paper real
iEe that this very day, in this country
alone, 400 homes are each made sad
by the death of victim of consump-
ton? Tomorrow will be repetition
of today's calamity, and so it will go
on until the people come to realize
the fact that a very large number of
these deaths are entirely unnecessary.
Consumption is both contagious
and durable disease in its first stages
Yet many intelligent people do not re-
alize this fact
AS our druggist, Mr.. Brock, of Brock
4 McComas Co., says, drugs and
cough syrups for bronchial and lung
troubles are only palliative and do no
permanent good; they may deaden
the cough and stimulate the patient
for a time. but they do not cure and
they usually upset the stomach and
have a bad after effect"
Eminent physicians, however, agree
that when the symptoms of lung trou-
BILE first appear, If the patient will OBJ
tain all the sunshine by day, and fresh
air by night possible, eat sound bread
stuffs, good meat, eggs and milk in
abundance, and take the best cod liver
preparation to be found, they will en-
ploy the surest means known for a
cure.
The undersigned will guarantee Vi
mol to be the best cod liver prepara-
ton. II is not a patent medicine as
everything in 1t is printed on the bot
tie, and It contains in a highly concen-
trated form all Of the curative, body
building, medicinal elements of cod
liver oil actually taken from fresh
Gods livers, but no oil to clog the sys-
TEN, upset the stomach and retard its
work. Any one can try Vinol on our
guarantee to refund their money IL 1t
fails to give satisfactory results. Brock

MAIL CLERKS EASY VICTIMS Of WRECKS

with the old wooden cars. The report
of the postmaster general gives all
this information.
The Mail Cars.
The old wooden cars cost from s5,-
600 to $4,000 to construct, and the
steel cars from $1,000 to $4,000. The
former weigh about $4,000 pounds
and the latter from 100000 to 1885,
600 pounds, according to the quality
of steel used.
At the close of the last fiscal year,
there were 1173 postal cars on all the
roads of the United States, 1856 of
which were built since 1893, when the
ment, demanding stronger cars, be-
gan to apply.
In May, 1904, these specifications
were revised with a view to additional
safety for postal clerks, and to meet
the demands of the fast mail service.
One hundred and eighteen postal cars
have been built since the revised
plans went into effect, to say nothing
of 40 old cars which have been re-
built to meet the specifications.
One all-steel car, built by the Erie
road several years ago, has not yet
been in a wreck. Two all-steel cars
are now being built for the New York,
New Haven & Hartford railway. The
Pennsylvania is also to build a steel
car. The Santa Fe has contracted
for 80 mail cars, eight of which have
been delivered, to be constructed with
an underframing of pressed steel, and
with the flooring of the same metal.
Over the steel floor a layer of cement
will be laid, and on top of that layer
of felt, with a strong wooden flooring
over all.
Steel as n Protection.
The statistics submitted by Mr.. Cor
telyou show that when the mail cars
built after the government specifica-
tions have been in wrecks, they have
escaped with slight injury as COM
pared with that done the baggage
cars, the engines and the smoking
cars. The loss of life among postal
clerks has been correspondingly small
in accidents where cars of this sort
were part of the wrecked train.
There are 500 cars in use that were
