Rebuilding San Francisco.

The more conservative citizens of
San Francisco have set 10 years as the
time necessary to rebuild their city,
and estimate the cost at about 400
million dollars. If you are trying to
build up your system that has become
weakened as a result of imperfect di-
gestiOn and cOnstipated bowels We
would urge you to commence taking
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. You'll
find it a wonderful help, as it viii re
store the digestive organs to their nor
NAL condition and aid Nature in eX-
tracing all the health giving and sus
tanning qualities from your food. Thus
it cures headache, dyspepsia, indiges-
tiOn. biliousness. constipation, general
debility. heartburn, poor appetite, fiat
uiency. chills, colds. female ills or ma
Iaria, fever and ague. Be sure to try
it at once. but insist on getting Hostel
ter's. Something else" won't do in
its place.

travel, the hotel car. a dining car and
sleeping car combined. That this nov
ell method will be popular can be mag
ined from the fact that the Fort
Worth train that departs from Rock
Island in the evening at 1925 was
composed of three sections Tuesday,
one section being made up of these
new cars exclusively. The winter
movement of tourists and land seekers
has commenced and indications point
to a heavy passenger business. Land
agents in Chicago saw the need of
something convenient for the many
passengers in search of new homes
and the hotel car was the result. The
land companies purchased from the
Pullman company number of parlor
cars and remOdeled them so that the
passengers may make the entire trip
without leaving the car, meals being
served in one apartment
1t is the plan of the Gulf Coast Land
and Emigration company TO establish
headquarters in several cities in the
middle west and form parties to make
trips TO cities on the gulf coast. The
private car THE Gulf Coast" will have
headquarters in this city during the
winter. this being the location of the
branch office. The car Will
make trips the first and third Tues
days of each month. This car made
its first trip Tuesday, Nov. 6 and Will
return from the south in a few days.
The company will establish headGuar
ters and run cars from ST. Louis, Min
