The mangers which beset the life of railway employes is well illustrated by the 88th annual statement of the Grand Trunk insurance & Provident Society, recently issued. In a mom- bership of 10,144 persons, including only 100 retired railway employes, there were 127 deaths, 83 of which were the result of accidents; no few- er than 957 cases of injury, and 2,- 847 cases of sickness. Thus, if no allowance bo made for some unfortu- nates who suffered more than one complaint, over one-third of the en- tire membership was on the sick IIst during last year. One cannot look over the statement very long with- out being struck by the amount o1 sickness due to exposure. There were 018 eases of influenza, of pneu- monia 54, consumption 19, lumbago 281, rheumatism 231, bronchitis 276,tonsilitie 133, pleurisy 36. Numerous other complaints were un- doubtedly brouglit on or aggravated by exposure, but the total of these already mentioned is 1,572, show- ing that considerably more than one- half of all the sickness was attribut- able to climatic conditions. Strange- ly enough, only ONE CASE OF FROST BITE was reported. Heart trouble af t- ed 28 employes, conjunctivitis of the eye 31 others, while 12 were bother- ed with inflammation of the oat'. There were also 28 cases of malaria, 52 of typhoid fever, 20 of appendi- A WARNING TO M'07le ERS, Ask any doctor anti ho will toll you that the "soothing" medicines contain opiates and narcotics dan- gerous to the health of infants and cbildron.

Most people do need a me- dicine at this season, but it is a tonic that is required to give health, vigor and vim. Purgatives irritate and weaken - a tonic medicine in- vigorates and strengthens.

Tho famous Planchetto case in England, which is just drawing to a close, will rank as one of the most costly trials in recent years. The case has barely occupied 20 days, and the legal expenses will exceed 535,000. Turning to great criminal prosecu- tions, the cost of which comes from the taxpayers and not from the parties, the case of Jabez Balfour is ore of tiro most prominent. This protracted case, which included the extradition of Jabez Balfour from Buenos Ayres, cost more than $70,- 000. Chapman, wife poisoner, has just been convicted at a cost of $15,- 000. The prosecution of Whitaker Wright is only well started, but al- ready thousands of dollars have been e:g,enclel, and thousands more will be spent before it leaves t' n hands of the legal fraternity. Justice in England is sane but costly. The Jamieson raid case involved an expenditure of some 570,000, while the Parnell 00000ission con- sumed 5200,000.
