RACE BETWEEN TRAINS.
Neither Of the Engineers Needed the
"RrOke i'm Two" Signal.

The following story was told last
week by J. ID. McNamars assistant
general passenger agent OF the Wa
bash Railroad:
From Clark 70 Mexico, Mo, ,lr
line runs almost parallel with that OF
the Alton. The distance is about
twenty miles. II is open country and
the grades are light. The going is
good and trains race with each other
often as occasion offers.
"One day two long freight trains.
one on each road. reached Clark
about together. A race. OF course.
was in order. Passing Centralia the
Wabash engineer turned partly
around in his cab and noting that the
Alton man was minus portion OF
his train gave broke in two
whistle signal for the informatiCn of
his rival The Alton man. hearing
the signal himself, turned in his seat
and observing that the Wabash train
was consider ably shorter than when
the race began he pulled the throttle
open notch or two more and smiled
as he looked forward 10 winning the
contest. AS the speed of the Wabash
train continued to increase the Alton
man in spirit OF banter gave with
his whistle the broke in two sisnal.
As there was no apparent effort made
to stop the signal was repeated.
Again and again was the signal
given by the racing enginemen.
AT length Mexico was reached,
both trains arriving there at the same
time, each engineer laughing at the
joke he would have on his Competi-
tor when the break would be dis
covered As soon as he stopped at
the Mexico water tank the Alton Ian
called across the right OF way:
How far you goin without our
tail lights"
The Wabash man, observing for
the first time his own predicament.
said:
Gosh! but | thought You was
whistlin for your own hind end

gretfully that about tvo-thirds OF his

one of the characteristics OF East

their readiness TO transform them

A Model of Citadels.

If one desired to look for a model
and type of the citadels OF past,
tottering but still resistant, one that
carries its banner high, one could
not do better than to visit the Hotel
de La Rochefoucauld-D d-Doudeauville.
In the very aristocratic Rue de Va
rennes, all of stone. one notes the
almost complete absence OF those
horrible six-story houses. veritable
barracks, which now overwhelm Paris
with their pretentious ugliness. High
gates with coats of arms, big roofs
peeping over walls, spaces between
houses, and few trees, even, ex-
tending their centuried branches al
most over the street. which conceal
the nests OF birds. One reads on the
door the name De La Rochefoucauld,
and an entire past is evoked. But
that is the only sign given the pass
er-by. Who is IL lives behind the

park allowed the lucky owner OF the

The result when the waves from

TONIC TREATMENT
Weak Stomach and Sick Headache
Cured by Or. Williams
Pink Pills.

The symptoms of stomach trouble
vary. Some victims have a ravenous
appetite, others loashe the sight Of food.
Often there is feeling as of weight on
the chest, a full feeling in the throat.
Sometimes the gas presses ON the heart
and leads the sufferer to think he has
heart disease. Sick headache is a fire.
Quent and distressing symptom.
A weak stomach needs a digestive
tonic and that there is no better tonic
for this purpose than DR.. Williams Pink
Pills is shown by the statement of Mr.
A 9. Merrill, a mining man, Of Oneals,
Calf, a veteran Of Battalion o, Third
L. S. Regular Infantry.
g had never been well since I left
the army, he says, always having had
trouble with MY stomach, which was
weak. I was run down and debilitated.
Could keep nothing on my stomach,
and at times had sick headache so bad
that ! did not care whether I lived or
died. Ny stomach refused to retain
even liquid food and almost despaired
of getting well as I had tried so many
kinds of medicine without relief. Then
/ was bitten by a rattResnake and that
laid me up from work entirely for a
year, SIX months Of which I spent in bed.
Il" One day a friend recommended DR..
Williams Pink Pills to me and I began
taking them. They cured me when all
other medicine had failed. I have
recommended the pills to a great many,
for during my recovery every one asked
me what was helping me so and told
them DR.. Williams Pink Pills. I cam
not speak too highly of them. "
If you want good health You must have
good blood. DR.. Williams Pink Pills
actually make new blood and restore
shattered nerves. They are sold by
