A TRAIN-LOAD OF
E-MADE (First Time in City's History.' Train of Local Products to Go Out. r or me nrst time m tne nisiory ui Richmond a full train load, forty-one cars, of manufactured products made In Richmond, will soon be sent out of the city. Thursday the M. Rumely company -will ship to Lincoln, Neb., this immense train of machinery. The train will contain tractors to be used in plowing and breaking up the great western prairies, threshers to thresh the wonderful wheat and other grain crops of this district, and other farming implements. The train load of Richmond-made products will not be broken up until it reaches Nebraska, where the machines will be distributed. The shipping season at the Rumely plant is now on in full swing, and every day from eight to twelve car loads of machinery are being sent over the steel rails, destined for the great farming communities of the west, South America and Europe. The entire plant is being worked full time, and one department, the tractor plant, where the great gasoline engines are manufactured, is being worked day and night to fill orders. Why He Was Late. "What made you so late?" ' "I met Smithson." "Well, that is no reason why you should be an hour late getting home to supper." , "I know, but I asked him how he was feeling, and he insisted on telling me about his stomach trouble." "Did you tell him to take Chamberlain's Tablets?" ! "Sure, that is what he needs." Sold iby all dealers. i 8triot School Rules. John Weiiley held that school children should do without holidays alto gether. When he opened Kingswoodi school in 1748 he announced that "the children of tender parents, so called. i have no business here, for the rules 'will not be broken In favor of any 1 person whatsoever. Nor is any child received unless bis parents agree that I he shall observe all the rules of the ! house and that they will not take him ' from school, no, not for a day, tiU ' they take him for good and all." Fur- , ther, no play days were permitted, and no time was ever allowed for play on the ground that he who plays when , be la a child will play when he becomes a man. Every Friday the children bad to work till 3 In the afternoon without breaking their fastLondon Chronicle. A Faith Cure. i Dr. Josiah Oidfleld relates a story of his student days at St. Bartholomew's , hospital. A man came to him with an injury to his band. The doctor did not 1 know what the ailment was, but he ! prescribed an ointment which was j practically lard. The man returned to 1 the hospital the following week. "Ah. sir." he said, "I begin to recognise why It Is that St Bartholomew's 1 hospital has such a great reputation! I i come from Leicester and have been to all the doctors In Leicester. Your ointment has done me more good in one ' week than all the ointment of the docxtors of Leicester In many menths." That result, added the doctor, was owing to the fact that the man camo ' to St. Bartholomew's believing that he ' could be cared there. London Graphic. During th year 1911 forty warships .wer elaunched in the British navy. ,flThes include eight superdreadyioughts, carrying 13.5 inch guns; two Jprottected cruisers, two unarmored jcruisers, twenty-three torpedo boat Mestroyers and five submarines. These iships aggregated 221,000 tons and will cost when completed over $86,000,000. ICTORS ADVISE OPERATIONS paved by Lydia E. Pinkham's ' Vegetable Compound. Swarthmore, Penn. " For fifteen rears I suffered untold agony, and for , one period of nearly two years I had hem orrhages and the doctors told me I would have to undergo an operation, but I began taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound and am in good health now. I am all over the Change of Life and icannot praise your Vegetable Compound too highly. Every woman should take it at that time. I recommend it to both old and young for female troubles." Mrs. Emily Summeesgox, Swarthmore, Pa. Baltimore, Md. "My troubles began with the loss of a child, and I bad hemiorrhages for four months. The doctors said an operation was necessary, but I dreaded it and decided to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. The medicine has made me a well woman and I feel strong and do my own work.' Mrs. J. R. Picking, 1260 Sargeant St, Baltimore, Md. Since we guarantee that all teetimoituals which we publish are genuine, is it (not fair to suppose that if Lydia E. Pink ham's Vegetable Compound has tne v;rtue to help these women it will help any other woman who is suffering in a like manner? If you want special advice write to Lydia . Pinkham Medicine Vo.

, - 4 9f ft?-, tiffs , 5 ru'4 r 4 "Then You'll Remember Me," by Joseph The Theaters AT THE MURRAY. The headliners at the Murray this week almost suggest something new. At least to the sated taste of the professional first afternooner. There are degrees and stratas in vaudeville. ' Richmond has had most of the stratas. The fossils that have been dug out have been from the formative period in vaudeville history. We are now trembling on the precipice of the degrees. "Pearl Brothers and Burns," as the cryptogram put them down, are exquisitely diverting. They call their "offering" "Vaudeville Vagaries," and it fit well named. But vagaries are oftener than riot amusing. If you don't live in the same house with them. And those indulged in by the headliners are funny. Especially the burlesque of grand opera, with one of the trio as Caruso, the other as Scotti and the third, who possesses an excellent contra-tenor, as Tetrazzini. Elizabeth Otto does an effective piano and monologue affair that elicits much appreciation from her audience, part of which is due to Miss Otto's cleverness, the other part to her charming physique. The piano sounds as though maybe Miss Otto could do something besides improvise rag-time out of excerpts from the classics. The acrobats are good, although not down on the program. They are possibly as interesting as the bicycle act and do some extraordinary feats of strength that call for admiring applause. Two "fashion plate girls" open the bill this week with singing and imitations. One of the latter is a burlesque on a suffrage speech which is mildly amusing. The agitation in many states concerning woman's suffrage has been a boon to the vaudevillians. It's always hard to find something new. But you want to be pretty sure of your precedents when you're doing so and not get something too moth-eaten. Evidently the fashion plate girl harked back to the days when Dr. Mary P. Walker took to trousers. That was in the stone age. It might be well to read up and find out what is going on in the world now. E. G. W. Remember the Baker. "At the court of assizes in Venice When sentence of death is about to be passed a man clothed in a long black robe enters the court and, advancing to tne bench, bows profoundly to the Judges, saying. "Remember the baker!" Then he bows again and retires. Here is the explanation of the custom: Three centuries ago a baker was executed at Venice for a crime of which he was not guilty. When his Innocence was fully proved the judges who condemned him invested a sum of money, the interest on which serves to keep a lamp perpetually lighted in the palace of the doges, this being called the "lamp of expiation." In addition, their fatal mistake has for 800 years been held up as a warning to their successors on the bench when they are about to inflict the extreme penalty of the law. The Box Tortoise. Though the tortoise is slow of foot, it Is quick to make the best of all its available modes of defense. The box tortoise possesses a singular defensive apparatus. The plastron or shell covering the under part of the body Is so formed that its front segment can be drawn upward to protect the animal's head, the head meanwhile being drawn back under the carapace or shell on the back of the tortoise. The upper and under shells then meet in front, forming a kind of box in which the creature is unassailable. When the danger is passed the reptile relaxes a muscle and the raised part of the plastron falls, allowing the head and fore feet to come forth. This movable plate is fastened to the plastron by a strong hinge of I 4aatic Ugaaaeak

RESEMBLES A MERMAID. If the Duqong Had Long Hair it Would Mak a Real Sea Woman. The old stories about mermaids do not seem so improbable after all when one looks at a full sized dugong. The only thing it lacks to make it a real sea woman is long hair. This enormous fish has flippers instead of tins and rudimentary arms. The flippers end in four distinct fingers and are startingly like the human hand. The shoulders of this weird marine creature slope in to a short but perfectly defined neck, on which is set a round heud. The eyes are like a human being's in shape and expression, but very much larger. They are set far apart on each side of the head and have a brown iris swimming in a white ball, but are lldless. The dugong has no nose, but the forehead is broad and well developed, and while the mouth is "fishy" in shape there is a distinct under lip. The dugong Is twice the height of a tall man when it is full grown, and a mother dugong moving about through the water holds her baby tenderly In her "arms" pressed to her breast, just as a human mother does. , Glimpses of this strange Inhabitant of the sea no doubt gave rise to the old time belief in mermaids. The dugong is rapidly becoming extinct, but still can be found in fairly large numbers In the Indian ocean. New York Press. '. SICKROOM PLANTS. Why They Should Be Put Out of Doers During the Night. In his random suggestions to his students, printed in the Medical Record, Robert H. M. Dawbam, M. D., tells why it is considered best not to keep flowers or growing plants In a sickroom at night Flowers give off moisture taken up from the soil; hence air becomes somewhat humid If many particularly growing plants are kept in the room. Flowers having a method of breathing, they use up the oxygen as human beings do and In exchange give off carbonic dioxide as waste matter. The action of sunlight upon the stems, leaves and all green parts of flowers Is to store carbonic dioxide within te plants and release oxygen. Thus in daylight there is. a fair balance between the carbonic dioxide and the oxygen given and taken, leaving neither good nor ill results. But during the entire night the plant continues to breathe, and until the return of daylight the oxygen is used just like an additional person breathing in the .room, thus leaving less oxygen for the use of the invalid. Therefore the standing order to remove all plants and flowers at night is based upon the facts of plant physiology and is right MAKE YOUR. vOWN COUGH SYRUP $2 worth for 50 Follow this r,ecipe: Dissolve one pound of sugar in half pint of water; add two . ounces of LOGOS Cough Remedy Extract: shake and it is ready to use. This gives you a full pint of a logical, pleasant, soothing and effective cough syrup, good for every member of the family, which would cost you S2 or more to buy already prepared.

Newbro's Herpicide
Foots the Calendar. Don't look older than you are. It Is just as easy to look younger. While lack of hair or poor hair is not always an indication of age, it is frequently accapted as such. A person well advanced in years possessing a good head of hair is always spoken of as "well preserved." Everyone can retain beautiful, luxuriant hair if they make an effort. In almost every instance poor hair of the loss of hair may be traced to the activity of the dandruff germ. Newbro's Herpicide kills this germ and puts the scalp in a perfectly healthy condition. With the destruction of the dandruff germ the hair no longer drops out. The itching of the scalp stops almost at once. New bro's Herpicide is the original remedy for which there are many substitutes, preparations claimed - to be "just as good." You don't have to accept a substitute. Insist upon having genuine Herpicide. For sale by all druggists. Applications obtained at good barber shops. One dollar size bottles are always guaranteed.
