A TRAINED NURSE
After Years Of Experience, Advises Women n
Regard to Their Health

Mrs. Martha Pohlman
of 90 Chester Avenue,
Newark, N. j., who is a
graduate Nurse from the
Blockley Training School,
at Philadelphia, and for
six years Chief Clinic
Nurse at the Philadelphia
hospital, writes the letter
printed below. She has
the advantageof personal
experience, besides her
professional education,
and what she has to say
may be absolutely relied
upon.
Many other women are
afflicted as she was. They
can regain health in tho
same way. 1t is prudent
to heed such advice from
such a source.
Mrs. Pohlman writes:

Evidences OF this have been mado known
on two public occasions the first when
all the clerks gathered and presented their

their lasting esteem and remembrance,
and when the little messenger boys, not
to be outdone by their elders, and evil
IDENTITY preserving as warm place In
their hearts for tho man, presented Mr..

beautiful gold chain and locket.
The Presentation.
All the mail carriers, white and colored,
Of the city, had assembled together, and
standing with heads uncovered. awaited
the arrival of Mr. Knight. The retiring
postmaster and tho incoming, Mr. Roy L.
Cabell walked In together, and Mr.. El-
bridge stepped forward to make short
presentation address. In few words
he bore witness to the able and efficient
manner in which Mr.. Knight had served
out his term, to his many klndncsses he
had bestowed upon all those beneath him,
and to the affection and esteem he had
inspired in the hearts OF all the carriers.
Tho words wero simple. but they were
sincere and heartfelt. At the close he
presented Mr.. knight with the token.
On one side were inscribed IVY. I. r.,

It was touching scene: every man
was stirred with emotion. and for few
seconds utter silence reigned In the room.
Then Mr. Knight, with fnltering accents.
uttered few broken words of apprecia-
ton for the esteem the men had always
shown him and the unanimity and har-
mony that had always existed between
himself and the carriers, and accepted
the token. He commended Mr.. Cabell to
them all and expressed himself In the
belief that the new postmaster would be
deserving OF all that they could bestow
,Inon him. ana that he would always be
appreciatiye Of their help.

LARGER NUMBER
HURT IN RAILWAYS

Tho report Of tho United States Rail-
way Commissioner, just published, shows
that the number of accidents on the rail-
IN 1906, throughout tho country, was about
10 per cent larger than In the previous
year. The Increase was largely among
railway employees and the commission at
tributes this to the larger number of
men employed by tho railways of the
country In or1or to handle the increased
business It is explained that the new
mon employed being without experience
In ratlroadng were more liable to injury
hy accidents than older mon In the
business, Tho Increased number OF pas
sengers who were hurt on the rail Ia
explained simply by the fact that there
were more passengers in 1905 than In the
previous year, There are no figures to
show that there were fewer accidents or
that there was any special effort to de-
crease them. ~
The announcement Is made that eleven
million dollars worth of engines, passen-
ger cars, freight cars and other equip
ment will be added to the Southern Rail-
ways property account by November lst
Possibly some OF this new equipment Will
find It's way to that portion OF the line
known as the old Richmond and Dam
Vile road. 1t Is to he hoped so.
