RHEUMATISM
its Cause and Cure.
I poisonous held in the Blood,
which needs remooal.
-Only one means for a radical cure.
Rheumatism is a blood disease., due to
the presence of uric acid—a poison—in
the system,and it is only by the removal
-,of this pain-pmducing p ison, that a
mg& cure. can be .effe ted. Acute
Theumatismas. hereditary, and thus it is
that young children are of en victims to
this torture. The use of 1 niments em-
brocations and outward applications,
/nay give temporary relief, but can rcever -
cure, for the ppison is in the blood, and
until it is expelled, rheum#sm, sciatica
,and neurahgic pains wll continue.
.Scotts'Sarsaparilla cures r eumatism by
Temoving the cause—by ne tralizing and
expelling this poisonous aci . In chronic
,ase, this medicine reac es the source
sof the diSease as no other medicine can.
It gives renewed energy to the -organs
that sustain life, the forces that make the
'blood. For the nervous troubles of
youth, for the -debility that precedes old
age, for ladies in their severe ordeals, it
is without a compeer.
Scott's Sarsaparilla is a concentrated
compound of the finest medicirles known
to modern medical science—The dose, is
from onebalf to one teaspoonful and
during its use the ordinary vocations are
mot' interfered with.

IN ST. LOIJIS.
Responsibility of the Man Who Guides the
Trains at a Great Railway Station—A
afarveionsiy Intricate System of Switch-
ing Trains.
- [Special Cerrespondence.]
ST. LOUIS, would not like
to share the responsibility of the man who
Its in the switch tower overlooking the
yards of the Union station and guides in
and out the 260 passenger trains which
enter and leave St. Louis every day. A
momentary relaxation of his vigilance
during the busy morning or evening hours
wonld mean serious and probably fatal
disaster.
There are three "shifts" guarding the
switch tower. Each works for eight
hours. During the busy time there are
two men ab the switch levers and two at
the desk—the chief signalman and the
yardmaster. When business is light—in
the middle of the day or night—one man
its at the desk and one controls the levers.
The chief responsibility rests with the -
man at the desk. He sits in a bow win-
dow overlooking the station yards. He is
in direct communication by telephone
with every part of the terminal system.
Ile can call-up almost instantly Superin-
tendent of Telegraph Chenery, the station
master, switchman in the little cabin be-
yond the "grand crossing" or the signal-
man on the Eighteenth street bridge, just
below the tower. Over his telephone wire
he receives messages telling him of the
coming of trains which are to be switched
into the station or of a delay in the de-
parture of any train which is to be switch-
ed out. He takes for granted the switch-
ing out uniess-he has been notified of de-
lay, for the outgoing traipas move accord-
ing to a flied schedule. The coming in
Is more uncertain. A largo proportion of
the incoming business is behind -schedule
time.
There are 30 tracks in the Union sta-
tion, which center, through a series of
switches, in four tracks at the "grand
()tossing." All these switches and the sig-
nals stitich control them are operated from
the stitch tower. There are 130 switch
points in all. Some of these work auto-
!
raatically together. One lever on the
switchboard controls two or three switch
points, so that one movement -of the oper-
ator's hand sets a combination of switches
-which throws ono track in the station into
line with one of tho four tracks at the
"grand crossing." Asthe traok in the
station can be led to any one of the four
tracks at the crossing, four combinations
under the control ot four differetnt levers
are needed to tap each track. The tracks
most in Ilse aro the inner two of the four
tracks at the crossing.
The system for switching a train out of
the station seems simple enough when
you know it. Beside each of the 30 tracks
is a push button. One minute before the
schedule time for the departure of his
t train the conductor, if he is ready, presses
'this button with his foot. This causes -a
red disk to appear opposite the number of
his track in a glass case just above the
nignalman's head. In this case are min-
iature semaphores or signals, which show
automatically what tracks in the station
are occupied and what tracks are empty.
When the rod disk appears, the signal-
man touches the corresponding button in
the top of his desk and the disk disappears.
Then the signalman, knowing from the
printed schedule in front of him what
train is On this particular traek and know-
ing in what direction, east or west,
this train is going, makes up his mind to
what track in the yards he will switch the
train and over what track at the crossing.
'Then he says "23:53:72" or some other
-combination of figures. This cotabination
Would mean that the train on track 23 in
the station was to be switched to track 63
at the crossing and to track 72 in the
yards. To make this combination switches
No. 8 and 9 must be closed, and the
switches at tho crossing must be set so as
to leave track No. 53 clear. That gives
track No. 53 a direct opening into track
Ito. 72.
.At tho sehodule time the conductor
,gives the signals, and the engineer etarts
the train. At 07,-ery point whore his out-
let is controlled by a switch tliere is a sig-
nal to guide the engineer. At night it is
a red light to toll him to stop or a green
light to tsil him the track is clear at that
point, or it is the flay arm of a sema-
phore outstretched for danger or drooping
to show him that ho may proceed. In the
daytime tho painted arms of the semaphore
or the coloaed disks of the dwarf signals
giyo him his orders. At the three points
of great daiyer--abovo and below the sig-
nal tower and at the 'grand crossing"—
there aro whi,tlos controlled by the si nal -
map, and iE he sees an eugine going ast a
dai?ger signal he sounds a warning. At
tiu4 sound of the whistle everything near
it must stop.,
When the signalman calls out his com-
bination of numbers, the mon at the
switchboard quickly throw the lovers
which move the switches and then the lov-
ers atm which control the signals.
These lovers aro short, and they aro moved
very easily if the switches are in order.
Thyexert no pressure on the switches.
They merely make the electrical conneel
tion which brings the switches they con-
trol under the influence of compressed air,
which reaches them through pipes laid
from the power house under tho swieth
tower. The first movement of the lever
makes the cenneetign, and'if this connee-
tion is not perfect the lever locks auto-
matically, and the track rmains blocked.
If the connection is in working order, the
lover is moved on to the next point, and
this sets the machinery working. Down
In the yards the switcli is released by the
with.drawal of a big pin which locked 15

BERLIN, Fob. 10.—If a powerf l'olass of
German politicians are errect in their

Td,n Thousand Farms.
Why Michigan is Preferred.
i
OpOortunity to get a Home.
i
The superior advantages f Michi-
gan or farming and fruit raising are
knoivn to all the world. Tint there is
no 1-4ter state. in the anion in which.
to sqcure a comfortable home, with the
meais of making a livehuood and
eventually of acquiring acompetence,
is prayed. by official compariaons with
other states. I
lai the first place, -consider her Inca-
tioNs Surrounded by the Great Lakes,
the climate is tempered. to a degree
eminently pleasant for man and rightly
dondircive to the growth of the most
valuiable productions of the Temperate
Zon6. Here no cyclones sweep across
the land, to destroy the results of
patient and hard labor, and ;often add
the horror of death to the , visitation.
No iloods occur, to wipe out the home
of the settler and send him and his
family fleeing for their Krim. Here he
can rest secure. ,
. The agriculture of thestate is probe
ably of a more diversiEed character,
than in any other portion of the eoun-
try. ; The Lake Hurou shore is the
plum belt of the world, and the same
1
may be said of the Lake Michigan
shore as to the peachea. Central
Michigan farms are the admiration of
all visitors. Everywhere the land is
wen watered by small lakes and rivers,
and_ everywhere it is well tinlibered. Its
.fertility is shown. in report4 made by
the Department of Agriculttire.
While in the important ' crops of
wheat and corn. Michigan ranks very
high in points of yield per 1 acre, the
state is peculiarly adapted. to the
cultivation of smali fruits aid berries.
Immense quantities of theseare ship-
ped annually- from her farms. The
business is at once very pleasant and
highly profitable. ,
As a stock -raising and dairy state,
Michigan has a leading place. The -
rapid profits of cattle -raising are well
known, and. at present this business
offers inducements worthy of prime
consideration.
In value of principal crops per acre
Michioan stands next to New York
'and :hove Ohio and Penirsylvania ;
and in value of all crops per acre, she
leads many southern states whose sup-
posed advantaaee have drawn to them
so many northern farmers.
The value of Michigan land, as indi-
cated by the value of the crop from it,
exceeds the averages of California,
Oregon and Washington.
Timber for building is abundant and.
cheap. Michigan has it greater variety
of natural woods than is possessed by
anylother state in the United States.
The farmer is not put to thei great ex-
pense of boring artesian wells oa,digging
great ditches to irrirrate his 1n4.
0
Railway facilities are excellent.
Michigan is the great highw4y of rail
and water transit.
The settler does not havei to leave
church and school behind hita in order
to obtain a home of his oWn. These
privileges—they should be considered
necessities—meet hina at every hand.
He does not have to leave relatives
and old friends far away. He need
not go thousandsof miles intO a strange
country, where - maibs , are few, and
where he can hope to seldont or never
again see the beloved foes of old
friends or neighbors.
The opportunity of a,cquirincr° a borne
in Michigan -should be wortha great
deal more than in less favored locali-
ties. To live where the land Yields
more ; where tornadoes or floods never
come ,; where churches and schools are
at -hand, is better for everybody, This
might well cost more.
But it costs less. .
The best laud in Michigan can be
bought at exceedingly low prices and
on small and ' easy payments. The
choicest locations are in t ie market,
