west of Bridgeport station because the
engineer had such a sensitive throttle
touch that when something happened to
the train he knew it and promptly APP
piled the brakes.
An examination of the train showed
that a spring on the baggage car had
broken, and the car was sagging so that
the train was in danger of being de-
rallied. This happened at the exact spot
where there was a derailment a few
months ago. The engineer stated he
could feel that his engine was not pull

To the Readers


Great and mighty changes have
taken place the past twenty years in
the manner of doing business. The
present age is no longer the time and
age of independent and competitive in
dividualism, but one who reads and
thinks can see the handwriting so
plainly that il tells Nls that great sue
cess is now only Obtainable by co-ope-
ration. This applies to most every bus
mess known. Time was land not so
long ago either when an individual
could be a successful merchant, but of
to be absolutely successful. he or they
found that keen competition was so
great that it required unlimited capital
to make one prosperous. few years
ago men began to unionize-to amalga-
mate-to concentrate their capitalize

as everything to-day is done on a
larger plane or scale; you-everybOdy-
demand it. Time was when the corner
store was the place of the successful
merchant, the dry goods man. or the
grocer, but these men saw greater capital
merged and banded together to do the
same business on much larger plane.
The corner grocer could at best only
buy in limited quantity. If he bought
from the wholesaler or manufacturer
we will say. five barrels of sugar, five
bags of coffee. three chests of tea, ten
boxes of soap. and five cases of each
brand of canned goods. he knew this
was about the limit of his ability to
dispose of these goods. One store, or
even two, could only sell limited
amount of goods anywhere. as the num-

COMBINED CAPITAL.

To-day every individual who has a
business wants TO comhine-he must to
be successful. Now, you may have $500
or $1,000 in bank, but you cannot use 1t
to any advantage. But by placing your
$1,000 with the 1000 that Mr.. Smith.

may have. you obtain a sum sufficient
to do big things. 1t is the only sensible
way in this age TO do. The public wants
to buy goods cheaper. and by combin-
ing capital the goods can be bought
for much less and sold at less price
and on smaller profits. but the aEEre-
gate of these small profits is large
when put together.

THERE'S NO RISK
If This Medicine Does Not Benefit You
Paw Nothing.

A physician who made a speciality of
stomach troubles, particularly dyspep-
sia, after years of study perfected the
formula from which Rexall Dyspepsia
Tablets are made.
Our experience with Rexall Dyspep-
sia Tablets leads US to believe them to
be the greatest remedy known for the
relief of acute indigestion and chronic
dyspepsia. Their ingredients are
soothing and healing to the intiamed
membranes of the stomach. They are
rich in pepsin, one of the greatest di-
gestive aids known to medicine. The
relief they afford are almost immedia-
ate. Their use with persistency and
regularity for a short time brings
about cessation of the pains caused
by stomach disorders.
Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets will insure
healthy appetite, aid digestion and
promote nutrition. AS evidence of our
sincere faith in Rexall Dyspepsia Tab
let's, we ask you to try them at our
risk. If they do not give you entire
satisfaction, we will return you the
money paid us for them, without ques-
tion or formality. They come in three
sizes, prices 25 cents, 80 cents and VI.
Remember you can obtain them only
