Railroads Have Jagged.

The truth is that the country over
extended itself in the construction of
producing capacity in almost every line
OF industry. and it is now waiting to
grow up to that capacity. The steel
Industry affords the best illustration
of this condition. The trouble that is
being experienced in that branch is felt
In great many other lines of bust
ness. The only important exception
to this rule is found in the railroads.
Instead Of overexpansion in that di
rection. no Roadway has been made for
many years. That is the one great in
dustry that has Jagged behind. 1t has
not kept up with the procession.
President Willard of the Baltimore
and Ohio dwelt at length upon this
feature of the business situation In an
address to the governors Of many states
at Baltimore Friday night and set
forth in startlingly plain language what
the effect would inevitably be in case
of business revival which would find
them unprepared to handle the increased
volume Of traffic forced upon them.

When Things Go Wrong

When things go wrong about the house
The bread forgets to rise,
And little Minnie tears her dress,
And all the babies cry
Oh, don't sit down and NOPE and sigh,
And fret and worry so,
But dress the kidlets and yourself,
And see The Electric Picture Show.
When all the World looks blue to you,
And you begin to fag,-
Your head to ache, your heart to break,
And appetite to fag,-
Just lock the door and leave your cares
Behind you as you go,
And spend an hour of solid Joy
Seeing the Electric Moving Picture Show.

Chautauqua

The work incident to providing and
arranging the Chautauqua program
for this season is drawing to q close.
All of the attractions have been secur-
ed and 1T only remains to arrange and
date them and the program will be
built. Mr. Nawter is in Chicago this
week putting the finishing touches on
the program books. 1T is TO be work
Of art, surprising in illustrations and
color effects anything heretofore at
tempted. In music, IN oratory and in
entertainment features the 1911 pro-
gram is exceedingly strong. 1t would
be q difficult matter to surpass pre-
vious programs in point of platform
oratory-in fact, in any line-but the
music and entertainment features for
this season will surpass anything we
have had before. Within short time
it will be possible to make definite an
nouncementof a full program. 1t is q
feast of..reason and flow of soul.

FINED THEM FOR NOT VOTING
Austria Made $4,000 Men Pay for
Staying Away From Polls at
Last General Election.

In some countries voting is compul-
sorry, and electors are fined If they do
not do their duty as citizens and avail
themselves of the franchise.
According to the universal suffrage
law Of Austria all those on the regis.
ter must record their votes, and at the
last general election in that country
10000 electors were fined sums from
two dollars downward because they
neglected to go to the poll.
Spain is another country that looks
on voting as a national duty, at least
in the municipal election. Should a
citizen omit to cast his ballot his
name is published as defaulter, his
taxes are increased by two per cent,
while If he be in the public service,
his salary is reduced by one per cent.
Should he commit the fault second
time he is debarred forever from hold.
Ing an elective position or an appoint
ment under government.
A few years ago bill to the same
effect was brought before the parlia-
ment Of Victoria. All defaulters were
to be fined $3.50 unless they showed
they were i'll at the time, were blind,
over stxty-flve years of age, or were
unavoidably absent
A similar idea was mooted in Can.
ada, the penalty being disfranchise-
ment for six years.-Stray Stories.

WHAT sENlLE DEBILITY IS
Waste of Muscle, Cartilage, Bone and
Nerve Tissue Consequent on I'm.
paired Metabolism.

I. L. Nascher, New York, says that
lsenile debility cannot be prevented,
but its effects can be relieved, the
mental attitude improved and SEM
blance Of vigor restored. The cause
is waste of muscle, cartilage, bono
and nerve tissue, consequent on inn
paired metabolism. That which in-
proves the mental condition and In
creases hope will improve the debil-
ity. When ambition and interest in
work are lost erectness and initia-
tive are also lost. Ageing is in great
part due to mental influences. Mental
stimulation through physical int1u-
ences is the natural method of over
coming mental depression Phos-
lphorus and arsenic are useful drugs
for this purpose. Hygienic and die
teuc measures to lessen waste are
useful. Food should be nutritious and
such as require little digestive effort.
Stiffness of the joints is due to hard
en1ng Of the 1igaments and moist heat
followed by massage is of temporary
benefit. The use of a cane for sup
port In walking, and a comfortable
armed rocking chair to support the
arms, helps to acquire better posi-
ton. True senile dementia due to
!senile changes in the brain is pro-
gressive enfeeblement Marked inn
Iprovement follows small doses of NOR
