Evidence NJ improvement in trade ana
industrial conditions is furnished by
the report Of the increased number oi
cars which the railroads have put into
service. The committee on car efiici-
encv of the American Railway Associ-
alton reports that during September
the railroads brought into use 1896
cars which had previously been idle
OF this number 16,O75 were box cars
and 1905 were coal cars and gon.
dolas.
The Improvement was most marlycd
on the Canadian lines, where so per
cent of the whole total was made up.
1t was explained that this was due ~
the increased movement Of grain from
Western Canadian points In the
United States the increased cars
placed in service were largest in ths

FOR CATARRH
Authority Here Predicts Much
Suffering and Gives Ad-
vice to Believe

Here Is a prescription which should
be valued by all who are subject TO
rheumatism, kidney and bladder trou-
bles and especially catarrh. While the
latter IS considered by most sufferers
an incurable disease, there are few
men or women who win fan TO eN-
perlence great relief from the follow
ing SIMPLEX home prescription. and Il
taken in TIM IL should prevent an at
tack Of cataN during the entire sea-
son.
Any one can mix the following: Fluid
Extract Dandelion one-half ounce,
Compound Kargon one ounce. Com
pound syrup Sarsaparilla three ounces.
Shake well In a bottle and use in tea
spoonful doses after each meal and
again at bedtime. Get these ingredi-
ents from any pharmacist whom you
know handles only pure drugs
This prescription acts directly upon
the elimiVhtive tissues OF the kidneys
TO make Them filter and strain from
the blood, the polsons that produce an

doses and Il IS seldom that the suf-
ferer ever experiences return attack

This prescription makes a splendid
remedy for all forms Of blood dlsor-
ders and such symptoms as lame back,
bladder weaknesses and rheumatism
pains are entirely dispelled.
As this valuable. though simple. re-
cipo comes from thoroughly reliable
