MAKE MONEY FOR STATE.
Saxon Railroads Well Run and Pay
Good Dividends.

The report for 1906 of the admins
tration Of the Saxon state railroads
shows them to be as financially sue
cessful as the Prussian and Bavarian
lines.
Saxony has about a5O,0OOOOO in.
vested in her railways. In 1906 the
gross revenue was 97600,0OO, an in
crease Of nearly 100000 for the
year. The total outgoings were
G5,O00,000, an increase of e24O,OO0
over 1905. Thus the net profits to
the Saxon government on the working
of its railways for 1906 amounted to
the substantial sum of e2,600,000, or
over five per cent. on the capital. SO
that all interest and sinking fund
charges are easily met and balance
left over in relief of taxation. The
Saxon chancellor Of the exchequer
counts the Saxon state railways, and,
1t may be added, the Saxon state for
ests, most valuable assets.
AS in Prussia, four classes of trains
are, run, and the workmens fares arc
as low as six miles a penny. Railway
rates are moderate, and equipment
generally good and improving. In
particular the station restaurants are
a feature. The waiting rooms are
restaurants where the ubiquitous Ger
man glass Of light beer is nearly al.
ways INDUCED in by the waiting pas.
senger. German trains keep good
time here as in other parts Of the
empire, but travel is not so fast as In
either England or America. That, OF
course, is characteristic. The Ger
man rarely hurries, but he gets
there without fail, whether In science
or in business.
Saxony has almost precisely the
same proportion Of train mileage in
proportion to population as We have.
But while 1000 miles of Saxon rail.
ways are capitalized at $50,000,000,
10000 miles of British railways are
capitalized at e1,3O0,0O0,OO0. That
point, as in the case of Prussia, is the
most important which energies from q
study of the Saxon railway figures

A Remarkable Criminal.

A rather better man than Jack
Sheppard died a couple OF years ago
~ the person of John Gillespie.
Called the king Of lock-pickers, he was
4 cunning man, equal to all sorts OF
deceits. Crime at Wigan brought him
to the gallows. Before the moose could
be placed about his neck he began to
kick and struggle and to foam at the
mouth. The authorities thought him
about to die, and sentence was COM
muted. Soapsuds had done the trick.
But the dying man made SO excellent
q recovery that on the way to the
lnfrmary he was able to spring up
and escape. Many tines after that
ne was in and out Of prison. The
warders were always glad to see the
Jack of him. He could pick any lock.
Stealing from his cell at night, he
@onld make his way to the governors
house, ransack his wine cellar, and
'hare his booty with the other prison
RS. He was converted In the end,
nd died poor but penitent in Carlisle

Heartburn Comes
From the Stomach

The heart Is an organ that people are
not inclined to trihe with, but person
may have fluttering of the heart, heart
burn and similar troubles and yet have
a perfectly sound heart. Nine times
out of ten the disorder comes from the
stomach through dyspepsia, constipa-
ton or some other digestive ailment.
So instead of taking "heart cures"
or other such things that contain stimulants
and narcotics. take harmless but effective
remedy like DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin which
will correct the digestive disorder and In that
way cure the supposedheart trouble. The remedy
Is guaranteed to do this, and you can obtain 1t
Of any druggist In 80 cent and 81 bottles AS
there are about 100 doses to the latter the cure
will cost you but few cents.
The experience OF Mrs. Knight, OF Belview,
Tenn, In this regard should be Of interest TO oil
who suffer from heartburn, etc. She writes that
for FIVE years she suffered from Indigestion and
constipation. from fainting spells, futtering at
the heart and heartburn She couldn' eat meat
Syrup Pepsin was recommended to her and
after few doses the indigestion and constipa-
ton was relieved and the fainting spells and
heart trouble soon disappeared. She takes
dose of the remedy after eating and now never
feels any i'll effects no matter what she eats It
would be well for those who suffer In this way to
do as she did and be cured.
There Is no question that Dr. Caldwell's Syr-
up Pepsin Is the best tonic laxative and digest
ant at the disposal of the American people. It
Is gentle In action and pleasant In taste Il
never gripes. It is the ideal remedy for stom-
its gentle action is especially to be recon-
mended to children, women and others who can
not stand the violence and gripping Of salts,
purgatives and cathartic tablets.

Color Definitions.


ro,ors have each an individual
meaning. White, for instance, which
Is reunion Of the seven primitive
colors, is the symbol Of power, divine
wisdom, purity, candor, innocence and
chastity. Red represents fire. 1t Is,
therefore, symbolic Of passion. power
end riches; hence kings and the
powerful rulers of the earth wore red
nantes. 1t is also emblematic of
hardness and cruelty, being the color
worn by executioners of old and by
the members of the inquisition.
Blue denotes fidelity, sweetness, ten
!erness and loyalty. With the an
clients, yellow denotes glory and for.
tune. Now 1t Is called the color of
infdelity and shame. How is it that
yellow has become the emblem Of
lnfidelity, perf1dy and misfortune? Be-
cause Jews were forced to wear vel
low during the middle ages, and the
house doors Of traitors were smeared
with the yolk of eggs.
Green is the color OF hope and Joy
and the emblem Of youth. Black de-
notes sadness. Pink denotes health,
youth, pleasure, love. Violet is the
COO allowed to faith. Orange means
divine inspiration and poetry. The
misses are all represented clad in or
ange colored draperies. Orange was
also the color OF Hymen. Brides once
wore orange-colored wells called fam.
meGm, and they could not pronounce
their vows unless covered with the
Hammeum.

In Case Of Accident.


Don't buster. Be tactful. II there
are dangerous germs present, ask them
to withdraw II they demur, ask them
where they were brought up with gen
tie irony.
Be careful to render first aid to the
injured. A great deal Of unnecessary
suffering has been caused by persons
hastily rendering third or even fourth
aid where first aid was indicated.
In case Of drowning select a best
method OF resuscitation. There are
4,639 best methods in all. Have them
about you in the form Of loose news
paper clippings and run them over
briefly before acting.
Keep cool. Stop every little while
and take your temperature.
If the coroner arrives while you are
at work, Immediately desist. It is dis
courteous to save life in his presence.
Take accurate notes Of the street and
number Reviving patients almost al
ways ask where they are.
