If the plans of the raiiroad are changed by the pervisors so that the lines will commence to *“fan out” north of Sixteenth street, it will make a vast difference to property owmers. It is possible for heavily laden teams to cross over one or two tracks, but when it comes to crossing over ten or more tracks it is out of the question.

It is a remarkable medicine, different in action from any I ever knew and thoroughly reliable. “T have seen cases where women doctored for years without perma- nent benefit, who were cured in less than three months after your Vegetable Compound, whiie others who were chronic and incurable came out cured, happy, and in perfect health after a thorough treatment with this medicine. I have never used it myself without gaining great benefit. A few doses restores my strength and appetite, and tones up the entire system.
