cases of scarlet fever, four cases of
diphtheria and one case of smallpox

by the report of Health Commissioner

scarlet fever and diphtheria are in the
vicinity of the Lincoln school, the re-

NEW PUFF BOX.

press the puff down sufficiently to take
thus preventing bringing too much
powder to the face and also avoiding
waste or the muSsing of dressing
gowns. dressing tables and the like by
splitting the surplus powder.
The construction of the improved
box will be clearly understood by ref
erence TO the illustrations. 1t consists
essentially of ring shaped cage Gig.
u and puff rest Gig. y. These are
assembled in Il casing or box. as best
shown by the section view Gig. 81.
The puff rest consists of Il rim sup
porting netting. The rim is adapted
To fit against the bottom of the cage.
The cage is preferably corrugated and
several of the corrugatiOnS are utilized
for housing spiral springs. The springs
are secured at the top TO the cage.
while their lower ends are hooked to
Tugs on the puff rest. Secured to the
cage are several vertical rods which
extend below the bottom of the cage,
serving as legs to space 1t from the
bottom of the puff box. The pun rest
is formed with guide arms which tit
against these legs.
The bottom of the box is filed with
powder and the puff normally lies in
the netting of the puff rest. In use
the puff is pressed down more or less
into the powder according to the
amount desired to be taken up. If de
sired any surplus powder may be re-
moved from the puff by rubbing it
against the corrugations of the cage

Shy at Shanghai Rail.-A disposition
10 withhold its sanction of the adoption
of the Shanghai rail for street car
tracks in the city was manifested by
the city council in its decision to defer
consideration of the proposed amend
ment to the franchise ordinance of the
Tri-City Railway company providing
for the substitution of the Shanghai
rail for the girder rail now in use. The
prevailing spirit was that the amend
ment should not be passed till further
consideration had been given the
change, and some of the aldermen seem
to fear the effect the change would
have in discOuraging transfers from
using the tracks instead of the pave
ment i'll hauling loads. 1t is argued
that when the weather is rainy or
snowy the tracks will not afford sat
isfactory roadway for vehicles.

AUDIBLE RAILWAY SIGNAL.
New Electric System Promises to
DispIace Semnphores.

New Electric System Promises to
DfspIace Semnphores.
The Great Western railway. Eng
land. has successfully experimental
with and just installed on Il branch
line Il method of audible signaling as Il
substitute for the familiar semaphorC
system which. it is believed. will be
entirely displaced in course of time.
The new system is electrically work
ed and is declared to be simplicity it
self The engine as it travels along the
line comes into contact with an appa-
ratus. fixed to the track, which is work
ed from the signal box and sets in mo-
ton d form of mechanism on the en-
CINE. Instead of the engineer having
10 look out for his signals. they declare
themselves TO his ear Enthusiastically.
Line clear is expressed by the blow
ing of Il whistle. which continues until
the engineer with his own hand turns
it off
Both bell and whistle are fixed inside
the engine cab, close by the engineer
as he stands to his lever, and should
afford more telling means of Motif
cation than a dial on which signs APP
pear. The substitution of audible for
visible signals would relieve engineers
of the strain of perpetually looking out
for any particular signal or lamp.
The apparatus is so constructed that
if anything went wrong anywhere the
whistle signal would operate. The
chief value of the audible signals would
be found in foggy weather, and the
new system is therefore of particular
Importance in country so fog afflicted
as England is.

OLD FOGY WAKES UP AGAIN
A PARTING SHOT AT THE
PROPOSED SEWER BONDS.
Thinks the City Should Complete
One Undertaking Before Be
ginning Another.

Mr. EDITOR: know the public is
getting tired of the numerous articles
pro and con in regard to sewerage
and other matters, but l ask a short
space for some figures which | failed
to get in my last weeks article, show"
ing the salaries received by city Off
GERS from about the time Hatcher was
elected chief police to about the date
saloons were abolished. Will devil
ate here to say that Mr.. Hatcher made
one of the most active, efficient and
watchful officers the city ever had.
During his term the chief received
from $50 to $50 per month, and the as
sistants from $40 to $45, and other Of
ficers following after him from $40 to
500. Now the chief gets $50 and two
suits of clothes, and the assistants $50
and two suits. making an increase in
the police wages of about 800, to say
nothing of the increase in the pay OF
all the city officers which, with two
suits each, will run up into the thou
sands. This, in connection with the
expenditures of running the city gov
eminent will certainly increase taxa
ton.
Those who are opposing bonds at
this time are not opposed to sewerage,
but want to see one thing done at the
time. Finish up the waterworks and
other undertakings, and then see if it
will not burden the people with taxa
ton to put in sewerage. If so, post
pOne it for awhile. Go slow in the
matter. By taking rash steps we will
iniure the city's credit as has been
the case with great many towns.
The council reminds me of a man
who started out to build houses to
rent. He framed the first, then an
other and so on, not finishing any
nor getting one ready for occupancy.
SO, with the council. They never fin
ish what they undertake before quit
ting it to do something else. Let them
finish one undertaking at q time, and
let the people see the cost of it and
that the books are balanced.

No one trouble is responsible for

Fortunately, a combination of reme-

has been discovered that absolutely
cures indigestion and restores to health

just one little tablet out OF % cent

SO reliable is Mona in curing all

TRIBUTE TO DIR. TILLEY.
Medical Society Adopts Resolutions on
the Death of a Lamented Brother.

Medical Society Adopts Resolutions on
the Death of Lamented Brother.
The following resolutions have been
adopted by the Terrell County Med
ical Society:
Whereas, on January LIST, 1906, after
a brief illness, DR.. w. A. Tllley OF
PARROT passed from the scene OF his
labors to his well-earned reward
above: and whereas DR.. Ttlley was a
charter member of this, the Medical
Society of Terrell county, therefore
be it resolved:
LIST. That we the members of said
society lament the death OF DR.. Tilley.
His life was one of purity, his aims
lofty, his learning varied and pro-
found. He was one of the loyal sons
of science and progress who labOred
for others regardless of self, and who
scared high above all selfish motives
and whose purpose was to administer
consolation and comfort to suffering
humanity.
2nd. That we honor him because
he honored his profession, because he
despised prejudice, ignorance and err
ror; because he loved knowledge; be-
cause, as a private citizen and as a
physician, he was he standard of hon
or Dr. and fairness, purely ethical, labor
ing to destroy enmities, to cleanse
the mind and body of every delete
rious germ, and leave in their stead
health brotherly love and happiness.
3rd. That we share the sorrow to
his family caused by his death occur
ing just as the light of his greatness
was beginning to appear amongst the
mists and clouds of his former
troubles.
