Do You Want to Know
What You Swallow

There Is growing sentiment in this
country in favor of MEDICINES OF KNOWN
COMPOSITION. 1t is but natural that one
should have some interest in the comno.
sition of that which he or she is expected
TO swallow, whether it be food, drink or
medicine.
Recognizing this growing disposition
on the part of the public, and satisfied
that the fullest publicity can only add to
the well-earned reputation of his medi-
cines, DR.. r. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N, v
has taken time by the forelock," as IL
were, and is publishing broadcast a list
of all the ingredients entering into bis
leading medicines, the Golden Medicas
Discovery the popular liver invigorator'
stomach tonic, blood purifier and heart
regulator; also of his "Favorite Prescrin-
tom for weak, over-worked, broken
down, nervous and invalid women.
This bold and out-spoken movement on
the part of DR.. Pierce, has, by showing
exactly what his well-known Incidence
are composed of, completely disarmed all
harping critics who have heretofore un-
justly attacked them. A little pamphlet
has been compiled, from the standard
medical authorities of all the several
schools of practice, showing the strongest
endorsements by leading medical writera
of the several ingredients which enter into
DR.. Pierce's medicines. A copy of this
little book is mailed free to any one de-
string to learn more concerning the valu-
able native, medicinal plants which enter
into the composition of Dr. Pierce's med
icines. Address DR.. Pierce as above.

Scranton, March G.-After four
weeks of conference the joint Griev-
ance Committee of the Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western conductors
and trainmen concluded today that
they cannot reach an agreement with
General Superintendent T. f. Clarke.
They will tomorrow ask for his ulti-
matum, preliminary to reporting to
the local lodges that they cannot Sc
cure an adjustment and asking for
vote as to whether or not to order a
strike.
This announcement was made to-
night by by the committee, after ses-
sion at its headquarters in the St.
Charles Hotel The news will be re-
ceived with surprise in Lackawanna
circles, as each party to the conference
by solemn agreement had given no
inkling of what was taking place ex-
cept to say that satisfactory progress
was being made"
The grievances are mostly about
wages. The men are demanding n
revision of the constructive mileage"
schedule; more pay for through freight
because of alleged additional labor en-
tailed by reason of the laying of of
the third brakeman in each crew and
increased pay for the roust about and
other twelve: hour crews.
The action of the joint committees
has been approved by the grand offic.
ers of both organizations.

WHILE there are larger cities in
the United States than Philadelphia,
we question whether either New York
or Chicago houses its citizens as well.
These two latter named cities, no
doubt, build more costly buildings,
but when it comes down to the build
ing of dwellings for the use of the
working and other classes, Philadel-
phia leads all the rest. During the
month of February, just past, permits
were issued for l ,271 building opera
tions, among which were S4S two and
three-story dwellings. If that rate
should be carried through the entire
year it would mean at least 10, 00O
homes for families, to say nothing OF
the thousands of other structures,
such rs additions, manufactures,
stores, apartment houses and Others.
Philadelphia will no doubt give a
good account of herself when the next
census comes along.

ALCOHOL IN BREAD.
Enough to Give One About Four Pints
of whisky n Year

OF Whisky Year.
"Hou consume four pints of whisky
year" said. the amateur chemist.
"Now, don't be angry or shocked. I
know that you're strict teetotaler,
but just the same | know that you've
absorbed that much alcohol. How?
Well, simply by eating bread
1T has long been known that the fer
mentation OF bread caused the forma-
tion of alcohol, but it was supposed
that it passed from the dough during
the process of baking. Several scien-
lists have proved that bread, when
ready for eating, contains an average
of 500 per cent of alcohol to the loaf.
You must remember that in many
countries strong liquors are brewed
from bread. Kvass, the mild Russian
beer, is brewel from brown bread.
Now, if you cat 400 loaves of bread
every year you must perforce have as
simulated twenty ounces of alcohol,
which equals four pints of rye whisky.
In ten years" concluded the anna
teur chemist impressively. you have
eaten 4,000 loavcs of bread. and in
that number of loaves is about 200
ounces of alcohol, or the equivalent to
nineteen quarts of whisky. Think Of
the saturnalia you haveN been on for
the last ten years, and you never knew
enough to complain of n big head In
the morning. York Press.

To BAT BALL OVER 8 STATES
Freak Diamond In East Liverpool, o.,
VIII Make Game Unique..

East Liverpool, o., March A.
Probably in no other part of the Unit
ed States except here is there base
ball diamond from which it is possible
to bat a ball into any one of three
States. Such n condition actually
exists at the grounds which have Just
been leased for the Klondike Club, of
this city.
The diamond is laid out on a lot
which is known as the Estate Line
Corner" If batsman makes hit
over third base the ball will be sent
into West Virginia. Should foul
tip result the catcher would have to
chase the ball into Pennsylvania. If
a straight drive or bunt is made,
the ball will bowl into the State of
Ohio.
Taking advantage of this freak of
nature, the Klondike Club is going to
widely advertise the fact that its club
will play ball in three States stimuli
taneously.

PENNSY TOO POOR TO
GRANT TWO-CENT FARE
Corporation, With 3O,OOO,.
900 Income, Declares
Maryland Lines Don't
Pay.
BALTIMORE, March 6

Passenger Traffic Manager James
r. Wood, of the Pennsylvania Rail
road, told the General Assembly of
Maryland today that the Pennsy,
whose net income for the last year
was more than $50, 900, 900 was too
poor to established a two cent a. mile
fare in Baltimore.
He said the average gross earning
to the Philadelphia, Baltimore and
Washington and Nothern Central
Railways-Pennsy lines-shows a re-
venue of only 2 LIS cents per mile
Excursion tickets are sold at % cents
per mile, and commutation tickets at
sums ranging from 0.6l to l cent per
mile. =
Mr. Wood declared that the net
earnings, per passenger, in twenty
years, has decreased nearly one-half,
and that the roads in Maryland are
run at loss.
"You say your lines here are run
at loss, yet you are still buying
more" said John Rice, representing
the Travellers Association.
Mr.. Wood made no reply to this.

y. 5. Learoyd, Division Freight
Agent Of the Lackawanna Railroad
will transfer his headquarters on
March 10th from Easton to Newark,
where his office will adjoin that of the
Division Passenger Agent of the road
at 749 Broad Street The growth of
| Newark AS an industrial and manu-
featuring center and its importance
from a traffic standpoint has made it
desirable in the judgment of the
road officials to transfer Mr.. Learoyd
to that point. The move is another
indication Of the present policy of the
| Lackawanna to recognize not only the
present requirements of the traffic
centoring in and around Newark but
also the possibility of large and con-
tinuous growth of such business.
With the extensive and costly I'M
| provements which have been made by
the present management in erecting
new passenger and freight stations,
eliminating grade crossings and ele-
vatmg the roadbed through the CON
gested portions of the city as well as
the substantial increase in freight
yards and track facilities, the road is
prepared to take more active part in
connection with the manufacturing
interests of the city, and in giving Mr..
l. aroyd headquarters in Newark it
will be in better position to cooper
ate with the requirements of the city
from a traffic stand point. The office
in Easton will be retained and Hervey
Love, who has been identified with
that Division of the road for several
years as Travelling Freight Agent,
will have charge of the Easton office
under the title of Commercial Freight
Agent.

THE CHOICE OF MATES.
Artificial Matrimonial Selection Ha
Given Poor Results,

Artificial Matrimonial Selection Has
Given Poor Results.
No one knows what type will be the
best for survival in an unknown future
environment. We often see the eS-
tincton of families of parents when
any physician would have pronounced
Ideal, but their children lacked resist
ance to the invasion Of pathogenic Or
ganisms or there was some other de-
feet which made them easy targets for
climatic causes Of physical decay.
On the other hand. we quite often
find that parents below par physically
have fine families. The curious unions
which take place must be the result OF
laws such az we find In every biologic
phenomenon. Man has the same In
stinct found In lower animals to select
a mate who is more or less different
from himself.
Should like types mate, their COM
mon chara. ierstics may be SO cxag.
gcrated rs to be harmful and the line
perish. 1t IS an instinct of those of
great intelligence to marry those of
less than the average. for the offspring
revert to the better average. 1t is very
evident that If we try to improve the
race intellectually by the marriage OF
like types We will violate the natural
law upon which our existence is based.
Artificial matrimonial selection has
been tried, though the. results were dis.
astrous.-Anerican Medicine.
