Remedies Could Not Touch.

stumble on a Club Meeting at which
an AuthOress with Gold SpeCtacles did
a Balancing Act on high Pedestal.
Aggie came home with the Literary
MIcfObe biting her at every Step. She
decid-d to write an Historical Novel
and she thought she had better hurry
ana get at it before she was too Old
So she began 10 wear her Clothes loose
and had Pencils stuck in her Back Hair
and ink Stains on her Fingers. She
succeeded in getting acquainted with
some Of the Literati. Now and then
she would bring them Up to the House
AMI Feed them Father couldn't see
them at an. Aggie said it was a great
Privilege to meet People who Do
Things. Father said that some Of them
ought to do Time. The Dealer in Pig
Iron was not very Bookish.
Just about the time that Aggie was
cOnValescing from the severe Case Of
Literature, she was seized with Social
Reform. She discovered that she had
a Mission. She was going cut among
the Working Glasses to show them how
to be Intellectual Mother suggested
that she remain a. Home and Show Fa-
Their how to be Intellectual For nearly
ten Days she was out uplifting the
Lower Glasses. Then one day she
bounced into the House and said:
''Monmer, Z am going in for PhOtOg-
raphy."
Mother groaned, but she was not
greatly surprised. She was getting used
to the Fads and FOibles.
Aggie began to blow up the House
with Flash Lights and she converted
the Clothes Press into a Dark Room
The Premises had a Chemical OdOT-
The Pictures would have been all
right if the Light had been better, or
they had been given Time Exposure,
or the Camera hadn't waggled, or
Something. As it was, they were full
of Fog and Moth Balls.
One afternoon Aggie was swiftly
transformed from a Kodaker into
Menticulturist. She brought home a
Book so Deep that Mother couldn't
make Head or Tail OF it.
Next Day a Young Man walked into
the Office an said TO Aggie's Father:

as Completed Job.
But as Time passed on. they learned
that there are many serious Ailments
that may overtake a Girl after she flut-
ters out OF the Nursery. About the
time that Aggie formed the Chocolate
Cream Habit and began to wear her
Hair in the Anna Held Style. she
caught the Matinee Fever, complicated
with ActoTitis and PhOtomania She
would go to the Theatre as often as she
could muster the Price and there she
would sit in a pensive Attitude and
gaze yearringly at the pale Leading
Man with the Black Ringlets. After re
turning Home she would NOPE around
In her blue Kimona and say that she
didn't care for any Dinner. Then No
Their would give her some Camomile
Tea and a hot Foot Bath and tell her
that she hal caught Cold. When II
came to Diagnosis, Mother was q

While she was still subject to these

Rothwell, who is better known as
Young COrbett bore his new hOnors with
becoming dignity and the boisterous
greetings OF the sports did not disturb his
eQuanimity in the least. He knew just
about what he was expected to DO, and
was playing the role with great success
until a Hartford young woman mixed in.

~ YER and over again The Call has had occa-
1 sion to point to the people facts tend.
~ ing to the conclusion that the Railroad Com
mission obtains from the Southern Pacific Company
law office the decision which the commission is called
upon to make in any important that comes be-
fore it. Upon one occasion, indeed the decision
seems to have been handed to the commission
not from the law office direct, but from the dining
room of the residence of w. F. Herrn. 1t is now
necessary to once more direct attention to new facts
tending to the conclusion.
When majority of the Commissioners decided the
oil rate case in such way to give slight reduc-
ton in rates oil between Bakersfield and this city
there little hutter Of surprise among the peo-
pie. Something utterly unexpected had happened
1t seemed that the commission had for once found
decision without consulting the railroad law Office
The reduction made was very slight but still it was
reduction and among the oil there con-
sciousneSs of victory.
The oil men, however, mistaken. Why the
commission reduced rates we do not know, but it is
evident that it acted unadvisedy for the railroad
has pettoned or demanded rehearng and the COM
mission has promptly declared its former action in
valid and put the rates back where they were before
There is be rehearing of the and perhaps,
reclining Mr.. Herrins residence; and then there
will be another decision 1t remains to be seen
whether after that decision the smile will be the
face of the oil men that of the railroad.
The old farce plays itself over and over again In
this particular instance it has presented stunt
that of Mr.. Edison performing fpAfop. That Com
missioner was one OF the majority that reduced the
oil rates He is also of the aority that invalid
ated the reduction. His colleague, Laumeister who
voted with him for the reduction, was not present
when the vote for invalidation taken. Mr. Ed

performance.
lhe reason assigned by Mr. Edison for the Aon
was not less farcca than the flop itself The petition
OF demand, TOR rehearlng came from the railroad
Dut MI Edson said he granted the rehearing for the
sake OF giving the oil men chance introduce more
eFuenoe Dlo ever clown utter greater absurdity?
Ihe public would like to have heart to heart talk
with Edison, of the kind of talks that Herrn has
with him-a sort of searching talk that reaches him
IN the right place It would like to learn from him
whether he really believes he is deceivng the nub1;
by his pretense that he has granted rehearn to the
railroad solely for the purpose of doing more sinh
stantal justice to the oil It would like to know
Just why Mr. Edison voted vacate the act reducing
rates before the new hearing is had IT. upon the
evidence submitted to him at the first hearing of the
case, MI Edson deemed it right to reduce rates why
does he set the reduction aside without further
evidence If the railroad have made sufficient
showing for a rehearing why does not Mr. Edison
grant the rehearlng on that showing instead of grant
ing it. as he says for the sake of giving the oil men
a hearing! If the railroad have not made sufficient
showing for rehearing why does Mr. Edison grant
it at all? Why does he drag the oil men in when
they did not wish TO come in? Is it that he in
tends to force benefit on them?
Whether the commission costs the Southern Pacific
Company more money than it costs the State Of
California we know not, but of one thing we are
certan-the work done by the commission is worth
great deal more to the road than to the State: so
that II the cost to the road is five times that i'm
