General Jackson's Way.

When General Jackson returned to
Washington after the Seminole war
his first act vas to send for a fash
ionable tailor of the name of Ballard
to make him a pair of breeches. Bal
lard was very fond of being recog-
nized by great men who had been his
customers. A few days after he had
finished Jackson's garment he saw
the General conversing with a COM
pany of friends in front of Tensions
Hotel and stepped up pompously to
speak to him. Jackson, thinking him
some distinguished individual, very
cordially gave him his hand, but, not
remembering him, in a whisper in
quired his name, to which Ballard re-
piled: Il made your breeches." The
General, deceived by the sound, i'm
mediately turned to the company and
introduced him as Major Brooches, a
title which poor Ballard was after
ward obliged to wear to the day of
his death.-New York Press.

$40, 600 JOBLESS RAILROAD MEN.
Vast Army of Employees Has Been
Laid Off Since June.

Chicago.-On seventeen represen-
tative railroads Of the United States,
constituting one-third of the mileage
OF the country, the total number of
employees is eighteen per cent. smaller
than on June 80, 1907. This state
ment is based on authoritative figures
just obtained by the Chicago General
Managers Association for the infor-
nation of it's members.
The railroads from which reports
were received traverse practically all
parts of the country and the figures
are said by railroads managers to be
fairly typical of railway conditions
generally. The percentage of men
laid off is much the same among all
the line, running from fifteen to five
per cent. of the number employed last
June. In n OF two instances the
figure is larger. On some of the
roads not included in the list the per-
centage of men discharged is known
to be as large or larger than those
reporting. Among these is the Penn
sylvania.
The total mileage of the seventeen
railroads amounts to 71,S72 miles.
On June 80, 1907, the number of
men employed ON these roads aggre-
gated 5S1,713. At present the num-
Der is 476,947, a decrease of 104,766.
The number of idle employees at pres
ent is probably in the neighborhood
of 345,000.

BlaZed Her Way.

There is a story about Alaska and
its people in which is mentioned a
man who chose a bride from among
some of the Indian tribes up toward
the Chilcoot pass. He took her to
a large city, Montreal perhaps, and
left her in a splendid hotel while he
went out to see some one about a
dog. She missed him sadly. She sat
at the window looking out on the
street four stories below. Solitude
became intolerable. She decided to
find her husband. There was an ele-
vator, but she didn't are for it. Soft
fy as moccasins could carry her she
issued forth. When she had gone
out a bellboy saw queer marks on the
balusters and door castings. The In
dian bride had blazed her way with
a tomahawk so that she could find
her way back. The Indian bride vas
merely living up to her education,
for 1t is very necessary to know how
to blaze a trail in Alaska.

Breakfasts in Siberia.

This bitter weather." said the ex-
plorer, makes me think of Siberia.
l spent two weeks in the hut of a ST.
berian savage, a prisoner to the black
frost. Shall l ever forget those two
weeks? Nit.
"a Siberian breakfast comes back
to my mind. We took it lying on our
stomachs round a kind of pie-board,
which was our table. The first dish
was frozen weeds dipped in seal oil
and served with large chunks of fresh
blubber. The second dish was raw
walrus. The third dish was walrus
hide-an inch thick and hairy; you
swallowed it whole, for it was too
tough to chew.
Dinner was breakfast over again,
plus a hot meat, seal or reindeer, af-
ter the hide course. Supper consist
ed of cold blubber and cold hide
served with seal oil.
Don't wrinkle your nose and
shudder. In that intense cold, the
thermometer never above forty de-
grees below zero, l liked that greasy
food. You should have seen me
munching away at great, soft, yellow
balls of fat similar to duck fat

RAILROAD OUTLOOK BETTER.
Interstate Commissioner Lane Says
Conditions Are Improving.

Washington, D. c. Franklin K.
Lane, Pacific Coast member of the.
Interstate Commerce Commission,
says of the railroad situation:
From the figures available to the
commission it does not appear that.
taking the country as a whole, the
revenues of the railroads have fallen
off to the extent that generally is be-
lieved. l have the figures compiled
by Professor Henry C. Adams, our
statistician, as to the New York, New

and Northern Pacific, which may be
taken as representative of the rail-
road systems of the entire country.
The figures are for the months oil
July, August and September, and a
study of them shows that the panic
SO far as it affected the railroads, ex.
tended but slightly beyond Chicago
toward the West.
Viewing the country as a whole,
the outlook for the railroads, as
shown by their own figures, is not SC
disquieting as has been supposed, and
these figures, it must be remembered.
include at least two months after the
panic began in New York, during a
greater portion of which time banks
would not make loans or discounts
and railroads in many parts of the
country would not receive checks ir
payment of freight.
There can be no question that
within the past three weeks there has
been a strong upward tendency in
freight revenues. A greater volume
of traffic is moving to-day than has
been moved at any time during the
past two and perhaps three months
The figures of the American Railway
Association show that there is less
surplus of cars at this time than al

Man Making,

The earliest maps of which we
have any knowledge were made in
Egypt. They were wooden tablets,
on which were traced land and sea,
roads, rivers, highways, ETC., Marinus,
of Tyre, $50 A. D., was the first to at
tempt a map on scientific principles.
The maps in use by the Greeks and
Romans were fairly accurate, sc far
as they went, but those in use during
the Middle Ages were alarmingly in
accurate. 1t is only within recent
years., say, since the middle of the
last century, that it was possible to

Truth and
Quality

appeal to the Well Informed in every
walk of life and are essential to permanent
success and creditable standing. Accor-
ingly, it is not claimed hat Syrup of Figs
and Elixir of SIENNA is the only remedy of
known value, but one of many reasons
why it is the best of personal and family
laxatives is the fact that it cleanses,
swcetens and relieves the internal organs
on which it acts without any facilitating
after effects and without having to increase
the quantity from time to time.
1t acts pleasantly and naturally and
truly as a laxative, and its component
parts are known to and approved by
physicians, as it is free from all objection
able substances. To get its beneficial
effects always purchase the genuine
manufactured .y the California Fig Syrup
Co., only, and for sale by all leading drug

Judge Not.

Never pass final judgment on any
one from first impressions. We are
all such creatures of limitations.
Eyes are faulty, and the elements of
character which elude us often more
than compensate for the faults we
see. Look again, look deeper. You
will be surprised at the number of
stars in the night sky if you look
long enough. Most people have more
virtues than are seen by snap vision.
Be charitable and patient. Do not
spoil your world by peopling it with
imaginary beings.

The Evolution of
Household Remedies.

The modern patent medicine bust
ness is the natural outgrowth Of the
old-time household remedies.
In the early history of this country,
EVERY FAMILY HAD ITS HOME
MADE MEDICINES. Herb teas,
bitters, laxatives and tcnics, were to be
found in almost every house, compound
ed blythe housewife, sometimes assisted
by the apothecary or the family doctor.
Such remedies as picra, which was
aloes and quassia, dissolved in apple
brandy. Sometimes a hop tonic, made
of whiskey, hops and bitter barks. A
score or more of popular, homemade
remedies were thus compounded, the
formulate for which were passed along
from house to house, sometimes written,
sometimes verbally communicated.
The patent medicine business is a
natural %outgrowth from this whole
some, old-time custom. In the begin
ming, some enterprising doctor, i'm
pressed by the usefulness Of one of
these homemade remedies, would take
it up, improve it in many ways, manu-
facture it on a large scale, advertise it
mainly through almanacs for the home,
and thus it would become used over a
large area. LATTERLY THE HOUSE.
HOLD REMEDY BUSINESS TOOK
A MORE EXACT AND SCIENTIFIC
FORM.
Peruna was originally one of these
old-time remedies. It was used by the
M%ennonites, of Pennsylvania, before it
vas offered to the public for sale. Dr..
Hartman, THE ORIGINAL COM
FOUNDER OF PERUNA, is of Men
MONTE origin. First, he prescribed it
for his neighbors and his patients.
The sale Of it increased, and at last he
established a mandatory and fur
nished It to the general drug trade.
Peruna is useful in a great many
climatic ailments, such as coughs, colds,
sore throat, bronchitis, and catarrhal
diseases generally. THOUSANDS OF
FAMILIES HAVE LEARNED THE
USE OF PERUNA and its value in the
treatment of these ailments. They
have learned to trust and believe in
DR.. Hartman's Judgment, and to rely
on his remedy, Peruna.

1O,O0O,0 600 spindles have curtaile6.
The average curtailment is placed at
from twenty to twenty-five per cent.
The cotton mills of New England
have about 100000 spindles. In
Fall River the production of print
cloths last week was lessened by
about $4,000 pieces. 1t is probable
that most of the Fall River mills will
adopt M. C. D. Borden's policy and
run on half time.
In view of the curtailment now in
progress a general strike is not prob
able. There is a sentiment in Boston
mill offices that a second cut in wages
may be necessary unless conditions
improve.
