The Grand Trunk line recently con
tracted for electric power to operate

tween Detroit and Windsor.
The Illinois Central railroad Is maxi
ing similar preparations for the intro
duction of electricity; indeed, there is
not a steam railroad man in the coun-
try who would have pooh-poohed the
idea five years ago that will not tell
you now that the electric railway era
has dawned and that the electric loco
motive is the coming propelling agent
for railroad trains.

of the body instead of on the sides,
and high, round windows. The car is
said to be an improvement over the
previous cars, in that special provis-
ions have been made for climbing
grades. The system of ventilation is
pronounced to be superior, and the car
to be dnstproof.

LACK OF LABoRERs.
Leave Work In the Country for Idle
ness in the City.

In other countries the growth OF dis.
content is chiefly, II not wholly, due to
the excessive supply OF labor, says the
Chicago Journal. But in the United
States the demand for labor greatly
exceeds the supply. The difficulty is
that labor crowds into the already con.
gested cities and will not ever in eX-
IRENE necessity go into the country,
where It Is lacking.
President Hill of the Great Northern
railroad says that lin the West pros
perity Is everywhere in evidence. The
only drawback Is a scarcity Of labor.
AS a matter of fact, labor is so scarce
that many farmers are selling a portion
of their land because enough labor can
not be obtained 20 carry on operations
on a large scale"
We hear the same complaint every
year. Throughout the fertile and pros
porous West crops go TO waste in great
measure because labor enough to are
for them cannot be had at any price.
Meanwhile cities like Chicago are over
flowing with unskilled laborers. who
have nothing TO do but grumble and
talk of that new millennium they call
Socialism.

the urban population of the country
has been growing at the expense of the
rural population. Though of late the
farmers life has been relieved of most
of the loneliness and discomforts that
used to make it less desirable than city
life in those respects and he now has
free delivery of letters and newspa-
pers, telephone connection and rapid
transit by trolley lines almost every
where, yet most farmers son head for
the cities as soon as possible and the
cities receive by far the largest proper
ton of immigrants.
Aside from the Inconvenience and
distress this tendency produces, it Is
not a good omen for the Nations moral
or physical health. The lure of the city
Is in most cases a lure for unwhole'
some ,d~esires-the desire 10 get rich

moralizing luxuries, TO enjoy those dis
sipations which thrive wherever great
numbers of men and women are hud

Three FACTS
For Sick Women
TO Consider

F1RsT.-That almost every operation
in our hospitals performed upon women
becomes necessary through neglect OF
such symptoms as backache, irregular
and painful periods, displacements
Of the female organs, pain in the side,
burning sensation in the stomach,
b~earing-down pains, nervousness, dir
illness and sleeplessness.
SEcoND.-The medicine that holds
the record for the largest number Of
absolute cures Of female ills is Lydia
+. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
1t regulates, strengthens and cures
diseases OF the female organism as
nothing else can.
For thirty years it has been helping
women to be strong, curing backache,
nervousness, kidney troubles, intam-
nation of the female organs, weak
ness and displacements, regulating
the periods perfectly and overcoming
their pains. 1t has also proved itself
invaluable in preparing women for
childbirth and the change of life.
THIRD.-The great volume of unso-
licited and grateful testimonials on file
at the Pinkham Laboratory at Lynn,
Mass, many of which are from time to
time published by permission, give alb
solute evidence of the value OF Lydia
i. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and
Mrs. Pinkham's advice.
Mrs. Pinkham's Standing Invitation
to Women.-Women suffering from any
form of female weakness are invited to
promptly communicate with Mrs. Pink
ham, at Lynn, Mass. All letters are
received, opened, read and answered
by women only. From symptoms given,
your trouble may be located and the
quickest and surest way of recovery
advised. Mrs. Pinkham is daughter
in-law of Lydia L. Pinkham and for
twenty-five years under her direction
and since her decease she has been adj
vising sick womenfr free ofcharge. Outof
the vast volume of experience in treat
ing female ills Mrs. Pinkham probably
has the very knowledge that will help
your case. Surely, any woman, rich or
poor, is very foolish if She doesnot take
advantage Of this generous offer of
assistance.

ELECTRIC MOTOR CAR
RAPIDLY sUPPLANTING STEAM
LOCOMOTIVES.
Steps Which the Great Railroads Are
Taking to Install the New Motive
Power-Cheaper, Cleaner
and Better.

a few years 3 when some one had
the boldnes to PROFOUND the question:
will the electric railway motor sup
plant the steam locomotive" It eXcit-
ed a smile of amused incredibly
among railroad men, and nothing
more, but the developments OF recent
years has clearly demonstrated that
electricity is about to give the steam
locomotive u fight TO a finish, with the
odds in favor OF the former motive
power.
1t was in 1883 that the first street
car was successfully pulled through the
streets of Richmond, Va, by an cleo
trio motor, and from that !, mble be-
ginning it has widened its sphere Of
usefulness until it has not only be
come the motive power un suburban
and interurban lines, but mRny electric
roads have been built to parallel steam
lines, and has shown itself Il danger
Gus rival, for whereas the first electric
cars were equipped with a l5-horse
power motor, cars are now built up 20
400 and %500-horse power.
Railroad companies are VIGOROUSLY
conservative in their business meth.
DDS, but us every new electrical tri-
umph meant another incrOachment
upon the steam locomotive, these ad-
vances became SO persistent that at
last the railroad companies We're
forced to take notice in self-defense.
And now practically every trunk line
railroad company has begun the in
stallation of electricity on its lines. or
is making preparations TO take this
step in the immediate future.
The New York Central railroad is

trio system to run trains from the
Grand Central station in New York up
into the state as far as Albany. At a
recent meeting of the directors it was
decided to issue $4,000 900 additional
stock to be used in extending their
lines in New York by electric roads.
The Pennsylvania railroad has tor
some time operated electric trains on
It's Long Island division, and this work
is now being constantly extended. The
same company recently made another
contract for the electrical equipment OF
its line from Philadelphia to Atlantic
City. These lines, as is well known,
have heretofore been operated by some
of the finest trains that ever ran on
this continent, and at a speed not eX-
ceeded anywhere.
The New York, New Haven & Hart
ford recently contracted for 30 electric
locomotives to be installed on their
line between New York and Stamford,
Conn. They have already begun tn
equip some of their main tracks cleo
trically. The power house, where the

lar daily schedule.
