ALL CASES OF DEAFNESS OR HARD HEARING ARE NOW CURABLE by our new invention. Only those born deaf are incurable. HEAD NOISES CEASE IMMEDIATELY. F. A. WERMAN, OF BALTIMORE, SAYS: Baltimore, Md , March 30, 1901. Gentlemen : Being entirely cured of deafness, thanks to your treatment, I will now give you S full history of my case, to be used at your discretion. About five years ago my right car began to sing, and this kept on getting worse, until I lost my hearing in this ear entirely. I underwent a treatment for catarrh, for three months, without any success, consulted a num ber of physicians, among others, the most eminent ear specialist of this city, who told me that only an operation could help me, and even that only temporarily, that the head noises would then cease, but the hearing in the affected car would be' lost forever. I then saw your advertisement accidentally in a New York paper, and ordered your treat ment. After I had used it only a few days according to your directions, the noises ceased, and to-day, after five weeks, my hearing in the diseased ear has been entirely restored. I thank you heartily and beg to remain Very truly yours. F. A. WERMAN, 7305. Broadway, Baltimore, Md. Our treatment docs not interfere with your usual occupation. “nste'S.*” 1 YOU C?.N CURE YOURSELF AT HOME INTERNATIONA'. /t.'JRJL C 11515,595 LA SALLE AYE., CHIuSCO, ILL Suggs’ Bakery< The place to get your • • • • Some Good, Wholesome Advice From Mr. Andrew Carnegie. . \ J Andrew Carnegie told railroad men recently how he ran trains in his early days, cracked jokes at the expense of high officials of the New York Central and Pennsylvania companies and predicted ex press trains with a speed of ioo miles an hour in the near future. “Old railroad men don't call me Mr. Carnegie,” said lie; “they call me ‘Andy.’ ” In a few minutes the speaker had made every one present at the anniversary of the Railroad Branch of the Young Men’s Christian association think of him not as a man of vast enterprise and great wealth, but as one of themselves. “That is not Mr. Layng sitting here on the platform,” said Mr. Carnegie, indicating James D. Layng, vice president of the Big Four. I “That is ‘Jim,’ and that,” pointing to Robert Pitcairn, general super- j intendent of the terminals of the Pennsylvania railroad at Pittsburg, j ! “is ‘Bob.’ ” He paid his compliments to Mr. Edward V. W. Rossiter, j vice president of the New York Central, who was presiding, then, having put his hearers at ease, told how he began life. “I am a railroad man,” said Mr. Carnegie, one of yourselves. I began my career on a little branch road running out of Pittsburg. It is now a part of the Pennsylvania system, but in those days the Pennsylvania road did run as far west as Pittsburg. I began as a boy and worked up so high that I was superintendent of the Pittsburg division. We didn’t have things in those days in quite as good shape as they are now. In those days it was not ‘Mr. Pitcairn,’ it was ‘Bob,’ and even-body called Mr. Layng ‘Jim.’ When I go to Pittsburg some of the old railroad men in the yards come up to me and say, ‘How are you, Andy?’ When they do that I feel like saying, ‘Here’s my pocketbook.’ ” Mr. Carnegie illustrated this by pulling out his purse and holding it in his outstretched hand. “It was some time ago that I entered the service of the Pennsyl vania railroad. I have seen many changes, and hope to see many more, for I’m a young man yet. My hair was not this color then, and I was somewhat different. Some of the men who knew me said I was a ‘husky’ lad. I saw the first locomotive taken into Pittsburg by boat, for the railroad was not built through then. The rails we used were 14 feet long, cast iron, imported from England. They were laid on stone blocks, as we hadn’t learned that wood made better ties. We had single tracks and no telegraghs. We ran trains around curves by sending a man ahead on foot. Sometimes trains came together with more force than we desired. “It is hard to teach railroad men that two trains cannot pass on ANY HEAD NOISES? BAKHEBVILf the same track. “I intend to ask Marconi to take up this problem of how to make trains pass on the same track. He did me the honor to lunch with me to day and when he gets the continents united by air telegraph I shall get him to help us out. “When I was seventeen years old I helped establish the first telegraph line that ran out of Pittsburg. Mr. Scott, who was in charge, offered me a position, which I accepted. It paid me $35 a month and you may talk about your X-rays, that was the best X raise I ever had. I used to put in my spare time thinking what Mr. Scott could do with the munificent salary or $125 a month which he i received.” Mr. Carnegie’s hearers laughed at this, but he went on seriously. “Let me tell you, right from my heart, there is nothing in money beyond a competence. Care and trouble come with wealth. Many articles have been written to show the advantages of wealth, but I can tell you the only advantage of wealth beyond a competence is what it enables one to do for others. “Let me congratulate you on the condition of labor in this great republic. Every honest man who desires work can obtain it, and at j wages sufficient to enable him to lay aside enough for a compentence | in his old age. . “That is, if he has a good wife to help him save it. There is | nothing else so important as a good managing wife. She is the I greatest aid to saving and getting ahead. Those of you who are married know it, so I am saying this for the young men. “I often look back on what a fool of a railroad superintendent I was. I used to go out to every wreck, and would spend days and nights on the road. I used to snatch a nap anywhere, and the habit sticks to me to this day. “The best way to judge a man is by his capacity for a laugh, j Your superintendents and managers are always gauging you. Don’t : let your buisness worry you. A man only does well what he does easily. If you have a load on your mind all the time you will never be promoted. The young man that wants more to do all the time is the one that is advanced. I never did any work myself. I did the . laughing. The best advise I can give you young men is to laugh, get funny stories—good stories. “We did not have very fast trains when I was railroading. We once put on one on the Pennsylvania road that ran twenty-seven miles an hour, and we called it the lightning express! Your Empire State express will do double that, and your sons will do double what you do now. It won’t be long before a hundred miles an hour will be the express speed. The railroads of the next century will be straight as a die. “I know of a certain railroad that is spending a million dollars to straighten a curve. That will all be wasted, for others will come later who will abolish that curve. “The line that does best for its men does the best for the owners. “Railroad men are the most sober, most temperate body of men in all the world. Let alcoholic beverages alone, at least until after you are sixty. “You are to be congratulated on the fact that the door is always | open to promotion. To work up you must have character, you must I be true, you must be loyal and your habits must be good.” “I feel as if I should fly to pieces.” How often those words are on a woman’s lips. They ex press to the uttermost the nerve racked condition of the body, which makes life a daily martyr dom. If this condition had come sud denly it would have been unbear able. But the transition was grad ual. A little more strain each day on the nerves. A little more drain each day of the vitality. Any woman would be glad to be rid of it. Thousands of such women have been cured by Dr. Pierce’s treatment with his “Favorite Pre scription” when local doctors had entirely failed to cure. “Favorite Prescription” con tains no opium, cocaine or other narotic.
