You follow the final as- sembly line in operation with units added in logical order, each unit being traced throughout its manufacture be- fore the next is applied.

' That s what one woman wrote us re- cently, and then she goes on to say :- "Ethel, who is just past eight, caught a bad cold last August The child is of a highly strung, nervous temperament and could .not be. kept quiet in bed. We tried everything we could think of . to euro her copgh. But, the cough became worse and from a rosy, healthy, sturdy girl she became pale and thin. Nothing we dicii seemed to stop the cough arid by this time regular spasms of coughing had developed.' These coughing spells left the child weak and completely tired out. I believe that in a Short time the cough would have reaeh'ed the child's lungs. After trying -everything I could think of, I sew an advertisement for Carnol, saying that this Preparation would build one up. I got a bottle from the drnggist and before it was half finished my little girl had almost completely shaken off her cotigh. Her cheeks began to get back their old colour. She started toput on flesh again and would run and play all day without being tired. Today, after having taken two bottles of Carnol, she is looking and feeling better than she has ever felt in her life." Carnol is Sold by your druggist and if yon can conscientiously say, after you have tried it, that it-hastiq done you any good return the empty bottle and be will refund your money. 4-122 For Sale by J.

In spite of the most exeensive edu- comotive enginemen for the safety cational, campaign against railroad of their train passengers. It is, highway crossing accidents ever car- ‘t.herefore, impressive to note that -as ried on, figures just compiled by the against the lives lost in only three - Insurance Department of the Penn- months by careless driving of motor sylvaitia Railroad System show that cars over tracks, there were no pas - in June, July and August,- of this sengers killed in train accidents any - year, such casualties increased- 30 where on the Pennsylvania Railroad per cent, as compared with last sea- System during the entire year ended. son. 0" The period covered embraces th first three months of the Nationa Careful Crossing Campaign," in which railroads of the United State have joined in efforts to make plain the deplorable results of catelessness During the three months, on the Pennsylvania System alone, there were 107 crossing accidents, in which 71 persons were killed and 115 in- jured. a pero. e less than 1400,000 passenger trains I were operated and 152,000,000 pas- sengers carried safely s The chief reason for this striking contrast is that locomotive engine- . men are thoroughly trained in every detail of their work, and are required to dernon.strate knowledge and ability to operate trains safely before being entrusted with their handling. g That this year's large increase in these casualties is chargeable almost entirely to growth in the -reckless and inexpitrieneed driving of automobiles, is shown by the fact that casualties at- highway crossings from all other causes combined decreased. There were 85 automobile accidents at Pennsylvania Railroad erossin gs in the three months in question. They caused the death of 56 persons, and injury to 107 others, or an average of tWo personal casualties for each accident. Twelve of the accidents re- sulted in 39 deaths; four caused the death of 20 persons, or an average of five for each car involved. In two of the accidents, entii:e fam- ilies were wiped out.
