Why cannot our railroad and oilier
malingers w this? Forty million of
our people virtually never travel for
pleasure. Women, children and very
few men are four-fifth of us all and
they enjoy travel far more than do
tluwe in good circumstances. And
labor can be had at one place about as
well as at another. It surely costs the
railways but a mere trifle more to haul
half a dozen loaded cars while they are
about, it. Forty million people taking !
several short trips per year would so
swell the profits of most roads us to
make stock much more valuable.

the most prompt, reliable and success
ful medicine known for these com
plaints. It costs but 'S or 50 cents, and
may be the means of saving you or
