GRAND TRUNK WILL
SPEND $4,000, 900
To Improve Rolling Stock and the Track
age-2,ooo Cars for Central
Vermont.

Boston, Feb. l2-More than S35 900
| 900 is to be spent in the improvement oil
rolling stock and trackage system of tbs
| Grand Trunk railroad system on its lines
which lead into New England and which
will, it is believed, ultimately have THEN
! eastern terminus in this city, according
to statement made by J. L. Dalrympe
vice president in charge Of traffic on the
Grand Trunk, Grand Trunk Pacific and
Central Vermont roads.
He says that the system has never in
its history had so big year as during
the past twelve months, and that never
before has the great Northwest put forth
such quantity of grain. Conditions
were such that it is estimated that 90
100000 bushels of wheat were left I'M
harvested in the fields, Notwithstanding
that the increase of the grain harvested
was from l40,000,000 bushels the year
before to 200000000 the past year
The Grand Trunk Pacific has contract
ed for 25 locomotives to be delivered in
Nav next. Other deliverates for May
are to include 1000 box cars, 500 fiat
cars, 500 refrigerator cars and 500 coal
cars for the Grand Trunk road, and 1000
cars of the several types for the Central
Vermont Cars for two trains which are
to be run as the New England States
limited" on the Central Vermont, are
being constructed. There will be a dou-
BILE tracking of l40 miles on that road
and these improvements will cost about
Sl6000000
Expenditures of $l2,000000 are to be
made in the construction of the South
ern New England road, in the elevation
of roadbeds and yards of the Grand
Trunk in connection with the new union
stations at Toronto and Montreal
The Canadian roads are rushing mil
lions of bushels of wheat in bond across
the international boundary to grain ele
vators in Minneapolis, st. Paul and Du-
luth for transatlantic export.
The rule regulating the period Of time
grain must be left in bond before being
transferred across the continent for ship
ment was suspended at the request of
the Canadian roads and the grain is be-
ing rushed at utmost speed. In 10 days
the millers of Minneapolis and other
western cities will be able to mill Cana
dian grain, the thirty days in bond hav
ing then elapsed. Many conditions in
western Canada have demanded prompt
action in transporting the grain to save
it from ruin.
Mr.. Dalrymple said that the improve
ment in the West has resulted in a call
upon the East to furnish clothing, food
stufs and other supplies, so that the
movement of freight West has been
greatly increased.

80 YEARS, SAYS NOT GUILTY.
District Attorney Probing Sehiff Valet
Case.

New York, Feb 2.-Determined to
get to the bottom of the case of Foulke
Z. Brandt, the former valet of Mortimer
L. Schif, who alleges that he pleaded
guilty to charges of which he was not
guilty, and was sentenced to a 30year
term in prison, District Attorney Whit
man was busily engaged Saturday, and
he left for Washington late in the after
noon for further work on the case.
The district attorney refused to dis
euss his plans, but it was learned that he
proposed to consult in Washington with
United States Senator Knute Nelson of
Minnesota. Senator Nelson is said to
have received ten letters from Brandt
since he began his long sentence five
years ago, and he has taken interest in
the case, because both he and Brandt are
of Swedish parentage. The district at
torney is expected to get the use of these
letters for "Iohn Doe proceedings. which
he plans to bring before the grand jury
to determine whether there has been
any conspiracy or other unlswful action
in connection with the Brandt case.
Earlier in the day the district attorney
had Carl Fischer-IIansen. who was at
torney for Brandt at the time he pleaded
guilty and Police Lieutenant Joseph b.
Woodbridge the man who furnished evil
dence against Brandt. both with him in
his office for long talks regarding the
case

on Jan. 3. 1910. He had been confined
ten months in the Tombs prison. New
York, before being taken to Atlanta.
The Communication of sentence gives
Morse complete freedom. but, unlike
a pardon. does not restore his civil
rights.
Mrs. Morse Is the second wife of the
one time 6nancier his first having died
in 1900. They were married. June 10,
1901. when Morse was at the height
of his financial career. In 1898 she
had divorced her first husband. Charles
f. Dodge. This was subsequently set
aside on the grounds Of collision. In
1904 the original Dodge divorce was re.
instated by the supreme court. it hav-
ing been proved that the charge of col
fusion was baseless.

Made From Boxes.

Many useful articles for the kitchen
can be made with ordinary wooden boxes
such as you can obtain from any gro-
Gerry.
From two condensed milk boxes
wall cabinet holding jars containing
spices, sugar, salt and dry groceries is
made.
Remove the lids and nail the boxes
together. having their sides touch. This
forms the cabinet with one shelf. AM
ether shelf IS added by fitting in piece
OF the lid halfway between the top ami
center of the box Smooth the wood
with sandpaper. paint it white or some
pretty light color, attach it to the wall
by nails driven through the back near
the top and YOU have convenient place
for various kitchen commodities.
BY removing two sides of a soap
box and setting them in the box itself
two and half inches from the top
and bottom, handy, well-proportioned
rack is made for holding such small
articles as the clock, cookbooks, matches,
etc.
A rock for kitchen knives, forks and
spoons is made in the same way. only
having the top shelf pierced with
row Of small holes two inches apart, the
length of the shelf and the edge of it
notched with little square slots one
quarter of an inch wide. Plates can
be kept on the bottom shelf
For saucepan and cover holders, make
a wallrack from window glass box
about an inch deep. Remove the cover
and one side. using the latter for a
brace to he nailed to the two ends sew
eral inches from the top Into this
slip the tin covers of the cooking pots;
nails driven into the lower part of tho
box will serve to hang the frying pan
and skillets.
Three canned tomato boxes nailed to-
gether and fitted with shelves make an
IDEAL holder for pans of all kinds. Many
a utensil will find way into such box,
il one is handy
All of these various boxes are to be
'arefullv sandpapered and vanished. IL
IS surprising how MANY different useful
-hings can be fashioned from the home
" ''box," if one has little ingenuity.

TWITCHlNG NERVES
Bangor Man Was Tortured-Could Not
Sleep.

1t would be very hard for anyone TO
convince Mr.. Samuel Bruch of Bangor,
Pa, that he had not been wonderfully
benefited by Ninol. He says;
"Owing TO weakness OF the nerves,
which were constantly paining me and
twitching so that / could not sleep at
night, was weak and rundown Hear
ing that Vinol was an excellent tonic
and strength creator | commenced using
it and Immediately began to feel much
better. My nerve trouble left me and
can now sleep better than ] have for a
long time.
Il can truthfully say that Vinol has
done all for ME that is claimed for it,
The reason Vinol did Mr.. Bruch so
much good is because it gave him new
strength and built up his health in gen
eral, Just as it does for all weak, nery-
Gus, rundown people-just as it will do
for you if you are that way.
Vinol is sold on our positive guar
antee that it must help you or YOU get

Medicine Used in Rural Districts.

Over S5 per cent of the population OF
the United States are said TO live in
rural districts remote from physicians
or drug stores and they are obliged to
depend upon proprietary medicines to
very great extent.
To the women in these homes, such
standard remedies as Lydia f. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound come as boon and
a blessing.
For nearly forty years this splendid
medicine. compounded from roots and
herbs. has been relieving the women OF
this country from the worst forms Of
