Millions of
Lives Lost
An Awful Toll Collected by
Consumption. Many I'm
necessary Deaths from
this Disease

If people could only understand that
systemic catarrh is an internal dis
ease that external applications can not
cure, they would not need to be
which, when neglected, paves the way
oftentimes for consumption, at the cost
of millions of lives every year. Yet
catarrh may be cured if the right
treatment is employed.
Catarrh is caused by a general dis
eased state of the, system which leads
commonly to annoying and perhaps Sc
rious local conditions, which may
prove a fertile breeding ground for
germs of consumption. External RENE
dies give but temporary ease.
The only way to successfully treat
catarrh is by employing a medicine
which is absorbed and carried by the
blood to all parts of the system, so
that the mucous membrane or internal
lining of the body is toned up and
made capable of resisting the infection
of consump ton and other diseases.
We have a remedy prepared from
the prescription of physician who for
thirty years studied and made catarrh
patient restored to health in every case
where his treatment was followed as
prescribed. That remedy is Rexall
Mucu-Tone. We are SO positive that
it will completely overcome catarrh
in all it's various forms, whether acute
or chronic that we promise to return
every penny paid us for the medicine
in every case where it fails or for any
reason does not satisfy the user
We want you to try Rexau Mucu-
Tone on our. recommendation and
guarantee. We are right here where
you live, and you do not contract any
obligation or risk when you try Rexall
Mucu-Tone on our guarantee We
have Rexall Mucu-Tone in two sizes,
so cents and 800. Very often the
taking of one 50-cent bottle is suf-
f1cient to make a marked impression
upon the case. Of course in chronic
cases longer treatment is necessary.
The average in such instances is three
$1.00 bottles. Remember you can OBJ

SELLS EXPRESS STOCK.
Southern Pacific Surrenders Control
of WeIIS-FargO.

New York, Feb. SIT is learned
positively from trustworthy sources
that the Southern Pacific company has
sold its stock holdings in Wells, Far
go & Co. There is also reason to be-
lieve that the interest of the Harri-
man estate in Wells. Fargo & Co., has
been liquidated, although confirma-
ton is not yet obtainable. The Harri-
man interests held practical control
of Wells, Fargo & Co., and this deal
is taken to mean change in control of
the corporation. 1t is expected that
the Hartman representatives will re-
tire from the directorate soon and
give place to the new interests, whose
identity has not yet been revealed.
According to the last annual report
the Southern Pacific company on
June 80, 1909, held 1880 shares of
Wells-Fargo stock. AS the latter COM
pany recently issued to shareholders
two new shares of stock for each old
share held, the Southern Pacific
holdings were increased to 449O
shares, with a market value, based on
the latest quotation, of approximately
$S,000,000. 1t is considered improb-
able, however, that the Southern Pa
cific's holdings were parted with at
this figure. The actual consideration
when made public, will probably be
found to be considerably higher than
this amount. 1t is known that a large
profit was made in the transaction by
the Southern Pacific.
The Union Pacific recently severed
its relations with Wells, Fargo & Co..
and transferred its express business
to the American Express company.
It is understood that Wells, Fargo &

MAY LOSE COAST TRAINS.
Central Kansas Towns Hear of Con-
templated Changes.

tcmpIatc0 CnangeS.
Abilene, Kan, Feb. 5.-A new routing
OF through coast trains on the Union
Pacific is likely to be made within
short time, and the new routing, If
made will take away from Abilene
some of the Kansas City-to-coast trains.
A new service from Kansas City to
Omaha may also be put on.
These changes are due to the COM
pletion of the Marysville cutoff, from
Topeka to Marysville.
The cutoff will give those trains the
following route: Leaving Kansas City
they would go via Topeka, thence to
Onaga and Marysville over the cutoff,
thence to Grand Island, Neb., and then
on the main line west. 1t would help
the connections over the Union Pacific
from Kansas City to Omaha.
If the plan werea adopted it would
make no material difference with the
service through Abilene. because near
ly all the trains now in service here and
through here are necessary to handle
the Kansas business. The only great
difference it would make would be with
the through freight trains to the coast.
The other freights are all needed to
handle the vast business of western
and central Kansas.
Without a doubt the chief object of
the Union Pacific is to use this cutoff
to establish a better service between
Kansas City and Omaha, and it does
rot bear so much as might be expected
upon western traffic

Morgan Special Covers 1913 Miles
at a Rapid Rate.
Actual Running Time Required
Only IT'S Minutes.
THREE STOPS ON RUN.
Total Time Only a Minute for
Each Mile.
Other Items of General Interest
in Railroad Circles.

Remarkably fast time was made by
]. Pierpont Morgan's special tram
running between New York and Bos-
ton last Thursday, and the noted finan-
cier now has the distinction of occu-
pving the train which established
speed record that will hold good for
wears on the road which he has de-
clared to be "the finest railroad in the
world" The run of 232 miles from
New York to Boston was made in four
hours and five minutes. or 24o min
utes This record, in itself, is not
great but when the actual running
time is considered, speed higher than
20 miles must have been attained by
Mr.. Morgan's special train at times.
What is believed to be an accurate
report of the movements OF this spe-
cial shows that Mr.. Morgan left the
Grand Central station at S:45 a. m.
and reached Stamford in about 40
minutes, which is faster than even the
limited expresses are operated over
the same stretch of track. After
changing from electric to steam en-
CINE at Stamford, Mr.. Morgan's train,
with Engineer Harry Grant in the cab,
left Stamford at 1882 a. m. Having the
right of way over everything along the
line, the special Immediately hit up
the speed and touched only the high
places on the run. Mr.. Morgan's train
pulled into the south station at Bos-
ton at 1880 having made the fastest
run betwe-l the metropolis and the
Hub in the history of the finest rail-
road in the world"
To get down to some of the speed
stunts of this train while being hauled
by steam locomotive between SIAM
ford and Boston, it might be men
toned that the distance between these
points is 1913 miles and this distance
was covered in IT'S minutes actual run
ming time The full time consumed
was 1913 minutes, which of itself beats
all records for the 1913 miles referred
to, but to get a line on the speed, 20
minutes should be taken off of this
number; II minutes was taken up
with station stops and stops for wa
ter, and there was a dead stop of three
minutes at Bridgeport, which brings
the number of running minutes down
to 178. Travelling 1913 miles in that
time is going a trifle busy even on the
best railroad in the world and is not
without an element of danger.
1t was along the fine four track
stretch between here and New Lon
don and particularly along the line
between New London and Boston that
the highest speed was attained. One
of the best sustained bursts of speed
was between Midway and Providence,
a distance Of 81 miles. This was COW
cred in just As minutes.
That the record of Mr.. Morgan's
train will stand for some time is with
out question.

among farmers. that the growing boy
never sees any mony of his own ex-
cepting on rare occasions like the
Fourth of July and Christmas, and
then he regards his shining quarter as
an object of curiosity and scarcely
knows how to spend it. Often, in a
case like this, it is found that the
father is looking upon his son as a
kind of investment to be made as
profitable as possible.
almost any parent that is willing
and thoughtful and reasonably atten-
tive to the matter may assist the boy
to find ways whereby to earn q small
income. But the effort must be per-
sistent. It is not enough to tell the boy
what he ought to do. 1t is at first
necessary to find reasonable tasks for
him and then hold him to his duty till
he acquires something of a habit and
& fondneSs for work. And then 1t is
not so much a question of amount
earned as it is one of imbuing the lad
with the spirit of industry and fru-
gality.

eff the ordinary father will show the
same interest in training his son in
these practical subjects that he does
in training his carriage horse to drive
or in preparing his live stock or mer-
chandise for the market, then the boy
will grow surprisingly in grace and
morals and thrift
after he has been taught to work
and to earn money honestly, then 1t is
all-important that the boy be instruct
ed carefully in the matter of saving.
Many can earn. but few can save. The
evidence goes to show that a bank or
trust company, usually local, furnishes
the most common and satisfactory
means of saving. Give him toy bank
at first, and as soon as he has accum-
ulated a half-dollar, or more have it
placed to his credit in bank of de-
posit.'
Building and savings associations
also are recommended by Prof. Nc
Keever, who likewise suggests school

teachers and principals of schools may
institute and manage pupils savings
accounts.

nosited in a sound local bank. the child
drawing an order on the teacher when
he desires to obtain his money. When
practicable, the accumulation of the
pupils may be placed in a savings in

of interest.

posted more than $4,000 in their saw
