IH RA'LhOAO IMPROVEMENTS.
This is not ths day of greedy
expansion into new territory by
the great railroad systems of the
United States—it is not the era
of warfare among railroad presi-
dents for rights of way into un-
developed country and neither is
it the period of acquiring branch
lines which connect with the
main systems: It is the period
of phisical development of rail-
road systems, in the fullest sense
of the term.
What does the expenditure of
hundreds of millions of dollars
by the various railroads mean?
Ask the railroad kings who are
authorizing the expenditures, or,
better still, go to the points
where the money is being spent
and the answer is obvious—for
physical development.
The Pennsylvania Railroad oc-
cupies the foremost position
from the standpoint of magni-
tude of improvements now un-
der way. In the past six years
it has planned for the expendi-
ture of #125,000,000 for im-
provements adjacent to New
York City besides other costly
work upon more remote sections
of the road.
It may be justly stated that
the cardinal principle of the day
of railroading is to increase the
efficiency of transportation. To
do this vapt sums of money must
be spent on terminals, cutoffs,
reducing grades, eliminating
grade crossings, increasing the
number of tracks and the pur-
chase of rolling stock. Millions
and hundreds of millions must
be expended by the great rail-
roads for carrying on this work.
The railroad captains of in-
dustry, in the face of constant
adverse legislation, are to-day
confronted with this very serious
problem: Where is the money
coming from?—George Calvert in
American Industries for Septem-
ber.

Millions of bottles of Foley's 'Honey
and Tar have been sold without any per-
son ever having experienced any other
than beneficial results from its use for
coughs, colds and lung trouble/ This is
because the genuine Foley's Honey and
Tar in tne yellow package contains no
opiates or other harmful drugs. Guard
your health by refusing any but the gen-
uine. Sold by Cabin Drug Co., and all
drug stores.
The announcement comes from

Some folks appear to regard

It's hard to be veracious in all

marks: "Not a notification

A letter written by Chester
Gillette, the murderer of Grace
Brown, to bis brother, Paul, the
day before he went to the electric
chair was made public by the
prison officials recently. The
letter ia consider one of the moSt
wonderful and beautiful epiaies
ever penned by a youth in like
surrounding.
It reads in part as follows:
"I give you the girl's (Grace
Brown) picture. Whenever you
are tempted to do wrong, look
at it and remember your sisters.
Be worthy of them.
".Most of the things in the
trunk and suit case are for you,
but don't be seltish. My watch
and a pretty seal ring are for
you. Most of the kodack pic-
tures are for the others. 1 give
you a book,' 'A Young Man's
Questions:1 read it and keep it
as your guide.
"Be generous; 1 want you to
have the things a boy likes to
decorate his room with. If I
don't break down, dou't think
that I am heartless, because 1
am not, I do not fear death, but
I would like to live.
"A line thought is to live each
day as if it were to be your last.
Please forgive me for my mis-
takes and redeem the Gillette
name. Don't oppose mother as
many young boys are apt to do.
Make her so proud of you that
she may not think of me. Be" a
comfort to her and father as well
as to the girls. The first year will
be especially hard for them.
"1 tried not to give way this
afternoon, but am afraid that 1
cannot succeed so well tomorrow,
I am sure that we shall meet in
heaven some day. I wish I had
set a better example for you,
but take Christ for your example
and always follow him. God be
with you till we meet again. Your
loving brother/- . Chester."
The letter, also contains con-
siderablaatlvice to' young mer.
In its pathos, the "letter recalls
the letters written by GraCa
Brown to her betrayer and mur-
derer, which were of such tender-
ness and beauty as to arouse
comment all over the country.
Gillette murdered Grace Brown
in July, 1900. They were to-
gether in a boat on Great Moose
Lake when he struck her with a
tennis racquet, rendered her un-
conscious a::d threw the body in
the lake. He was executed
March 29, this year.—Ex.

Booth Tarkington snvs that in
no state have the newspapers
more "journalistic enterprise"
than in his native Indinnna.
While stopping at a little Hoos-
ier hotel in the course of a hunt
ing trip Mr. Turkington lost one
of his dogs.
"Haye you a newspaper in
town?" he asked of the landlord.
"Right a cross the way there,
back of the shoemaker's," the
landlord told him. "The Daily
News—best little paper in the
stute."
The editor, the printer, and
#
the printer's devil were all busy
doing justice to Mr. Tarkington
with an "incur-midst" para-
graph when the novelist arrived.
"I've just lost a dog," Tarking-
ton explained after he had intro-
duced himself, "and I'd like to
have yon insert this ad for me:
'Fifty dollars reward for the re-
turn of a pointer dog nnswering
to the name sf Rey. Disappear-
ed from the yard of the Mansion
House Monday night.'"
"Why, we were just going to
press, sir," the editor said, "hut
we'll he only too glad to hold
the edition for your ad."
Mr. Tarkington returned
the hotel
he decided, however, that it
might he well to add "No ques-
tions asked" to his advertise-
ment, nd returned to the Daily
News office.
The place was deserted, save
for the skinny liltle freekled-
f teed devil, who sat perched on
a high stoal, gazing wistfully
Dut of the window,
"Where is everybody?', Tar-
fiingtor asked.
"Gawn to hunt, th' daw£," re-
plied the hoy, without removing
his gaze from the distant fields.

OBEYING MOTHER.
A man had just arrived at a
Massachusetts summer resoit.
In the after neon he was sitting
on the veranda when a handsome
young woman and her six-year-
old son came out. The little
fellow at once made friends with
the latest arrival.
"What is your name?" he
asked. Then, vrben this infor-
mation had been given,he added
"Are yon maFried?"
"I am not married," responded
the man, with a smile.
At this the child paused amo-
| merit, and, turning to his moth-
er, said:
"What else was it; mamma,
you wanted tve to a=k him?"
TOO MUCH FOR HIM.
"Persistence is a virtue, per-
haps," said Mr. Taft, "but there
are times when it is well to know
when to give up. D >wn in Cov-
ington one day an old darky
was brought into court on a tri-
vial charge. He was visibly
frightened a::d listened to the
proceedings with bulging eyes,
while the . perspiration rolled
down bis face. The clerk got
up and reud the complaint. Noth
ing happened until he got as far
as 'the State of Kentucy against
Sam White,' or what ever the
darky's name was. -
" 'Hold on,' shouted the pris-
oner, rising to his feet, 'don't go
no' further wid dat, jedge. When
you white folks put de whole
State of Kentucky against one
pore ole cullud man 1'se going*
to gib upj yassir, I'se guilty
right here."—Tel re Haute Trib-
une.
Instant ancoits Action -
"I was almost distracted by a terrible
itching which defied all treatment until
1 obtained a box of Hunt's Cure. The
first application afTotded instant and ab-
solute relief. The one box affected a
complete cure."
"It is simply wmderful in its instan-
taneous action."
