The Bell Telephone.

New York, Jan. 6.-According
to the most reliable information
available there is very little chance
for an early reduction in telephone
rates, although the last of the re-
ceiver patents ends on January 30
and the Bell Company must rely
thereafter on the Berliner and Edi-
son transmitter patents, The pat
ent which expires on Jan 30 is for
the receiver now used, and after
that date any manufacturer may
make receivers, but to make the
transmitter it will be necessary to
wait until the Berliner patent
question has been decided, or take
risks of having it declared good by
the courts and thus become liable
for damages for infringement.
The Bell Telephone Company is
like the infant industries to which
Governor Mckinley was so provi-
dent a nurse. 1t was organized in
1880, with an authorized capital of
s10,D00,OOO. 1t has since gone
through various processes of finan-
ciering. all tending to better the
fortunes of the stockholders and to
make excuses for the keeping up OF
the exorbitant rates charged the
public for the use Of the instru-
ments.
The capital stock is now $4,000,
600 and the total dividends paid
since 1880 amount to 1923, 106,096.
The average regular and extra
dividend has been $1,s50,435. The
average capital has been S11, 2O9,.
O35.

The number of marriage license
issued from the County Clerks Of,
fee for last year was 80, against 81
in 1892. This shows a downward
tendency in the matrimonial mar
ket which reasoning from anolegy
may be accounted for either by the
hard times or by the supply and
demand.

A Few Facts.

Areaedy has been found which
cures chronic diseases: not in every
case, but in q large percentage of
them. And in cases too far gone
for cure, it affords relief and often
prolongs life. Many who have
been given over by physicians have
been prevailed upon by friends to
try this remedy, the Compound
Oxygen Treatment of Drs. Starkey
s Palen, of Philadelphia, and are
now living to testify to it's curative
powers. 1t has been successful in
curing many cases of catarrh, ma
larial fever, hay fever, asthma
bronchitis, neuralgia, nervous pros
tration, and other chronic diseases.
In these diseases physicians have
had little success, as the name they
have given to this class Of disorders
indicates, but Compound Oxygen
has worked wonders.
There is only one genuine Conf
pound Oxygen, and any substance
made elsewhere or by others than
Drs. Starkey and Palen, is spurious.
Avoid limitations.
fyou wish to learn more of this
wonderful remedy, send for our
book of 200 pages, sent free, with
numerous testimonials and records
of surprising cures.

During the past half-century-
since the discovery of Ayers Sar-
saparilla-the average limit of hui
man life in the civilized countries,
has been considerably heightened.
Ayers Sarsaparilla is everywhere
considered the standard blood-puri-
fer, the Superior Medicine.
Highland recorder. (Monterey, Highland County, Va.) 1877-1972, 1894-01-12

The continual succession of
boils, pimples, and eruption from
which many suffer, indicates an
impure state of the blood. The
most effective remedy is Ayers
Sarsaparilla. 1t expeis the poison
harmlessly through the natural
channels, and leaves the skin clean
and clear.
