Sinking Spells Every Few Days

At the time 1 began taking Dr. Miles Heart Remedy l was having sinking spells every few days. My hands and feet would get cold; l could scarcely breathe, and could feel myself 5ladually sinking away until 1 would be unconscious. Those about me could not tell there was life in me. After these spells l would be very weak and nervous, sleepless and without appetite; had neuralgia in my head and heart. Alter takinG the remedy short time all this disappeared and in a few weeks all the heart trouble was gone"
 MRS. LIZZIE PAINTER So3H sd Ave. Evansville, Ind.
 For twenty years we have been constantly receiving just such letters as these. There is scarcely locality in the United States where there is not some one who can testify to the merits of this remarkably suc- cessful Heart Remedy.
 Dr. Miles Heart Remedy is sold by all druggists. If the first bottle fails to benefit, your druggist will return your money.

C. PEAKAGOOD WORD ~ for your own town and

country whenever an opportunity presents itself. More towns die for want of confidence, on the part of business men. and public spi- rit, than from rivalry of neigh boring towns or adverse sur roundings. When a man is in search of home or busi- ness location, and goes to a town and finds everything brim full of hope and enthu- siam over prospects of the place, and earnestly at work to build up the town, he soon becomes imbued with the same spirit, and as a result, he drives down his stake and goes to work with the same interest. When, however, he goes to town and everyone expresses doubt aud apprehen- sion in the future prospects of the place, musing about and indulging in mourning, con- blaming about imaginable evils which are likely to be- fall the town, he naturally feels that 1t is not the place for him; and at once shakes the dust from his feet, while he pulls with all possible speed f)r some other town. Consequently, try and make a live enterPrising, progress i've town out of the one in which you live, and remem- Der that when you are work ing for or saying good word for your town, you are accom- plishing all the more for your self. Then speak a gooo word for your town.

DULL, FEA7URELESS
STOCK SITUATION

The stock market today has been
featureless-unless, indeed, lack of
activity and weak quotations may be
regarded as features. There were no
large sales, either on the street or on
Change. Since the session of the
forenoon, however, there has been
considerable inquiry here and there
and it is possible that there may be
interesting developments before to-
morrow.
Between boards there were sales of
1O5 and % Eva at $9S. 20, followed
by 35 on the board at S34. This
morning the quotations were $93 S75
bid and $34 asked.
Also on the street II Oahu sold at
$3.50. With the dividend off this
morning, however, only $33 .125 was
bid while holders had dropped back
to 1926
Pioneer sold between boards at
$215, two blocks of 20 and Is shares
changing hands. This morning 1914
was bid for this stock, while $217 was
asked.
A sale of $4,000 California Beet Is
was made at $1O1, and 6 Hilo Rail-
road sold at $12.
There has been considerable street
talk today concerning the low quo
tations on Hawaiian Commercial. The
low bid figure of $99 1925 yesterday
was hard for some people to account
for. 1t is explained that partially
forced sales of small blocks have
thrown the quotations out of plumb.
Hawaiian Commercial is quoted in
San Francisco today at $40 and bet
ter, cable having been received this
morning to that effect.

LETTER
Of HENRY CLEWS
NEW YORK, June 4, 1910


A severe blow has been admins
tered to financial interests by the I'M
expected injunction against an advance
in railroad rates. It's first effect was
to startle Wall Street and force de-
moralized selling of stocks. What
the final outcome will be cannot now
be foreseen. 1t means at any rate
a period of prolonged discussion at
Washington, together with a general
reopening of agitation against the
railroads. Out of the struggle so sud
denly precipitated there should come
some rational and permanent solu-
ton of the railroad problem; but I'M
fortunately during the interval per-
Tod of more or less unsettlement in
values must be expected. The pre-
sent status of the railroads. is unbear-
able, and some judicial power is ne
able, and some judicial power is ne
tween them aud the people. Rail-
roads are a natural monopoly, and as
such exercise arbitrary powers which
should be restrained. Railroads are
human, and however broad minded
and liberal they may be, are likely
in the matter of rates to put on all
the traffic will bear. Shippers desire
stable. rates, good service and equal
ity of treatment. These advantages
they generally receive, yet find them
selves at the mercy of the railroads
in the question OF rates. \ The freight
rate from the nature Of the case is not
a subject for bargaining-th usual
method of settling business transac-
tions-hence the alarm OF shippers
at the recent movement of the roads
TO advance rates. Shippers believe
the advance to be unnecessary and ex-
press serious alarm at this exercise
of arbitrary power free of restraint.
On the other hand the railroads find
themselves face-to-face with the prob
lem of securing sufficient revenue to
meet the increased demands of labor
and rapidly growing expenses. There
seems to be but one true solution Of
this antagonism in the relations of
the railroads and the people; that is
the establishment of some court or
tribunal designed to arbitrate and set
tie all such differences. If such a
court could be devised, securing fair
