To Investigate Demurrage.

The committee was also directed 10
urge the local freight agents TO send
personal notice Of the arrival Of cars,
as the mailed notices were sometimes
lost or not delivered in time 20 afford
proper opportunity 20 the receiver TO un-
load cars within the time specified by
the rules. II was also determined TO
secure information from other cities. ia
order that a comparison might be- made
with reference 10 the time limits of un-
bDading cars and the assessment OF de-
murrage costs.
The committee was also directed 70
ascertain from the Interstate Commerce
Commission whether IL was true that
claims on bills OF lading should be sub
mitted % the receiving road. and in cBse
of legal proceedings whether the suit
must be fled against the receiving road.
Wholesale District May shift.
r. =. Graham called attention 10 the
fact that the entry " freight into the
city had been almost completely changed
by the installation of tie new terminals
and suggested that something ought to be
done by way of establishing warehouses
along the tracks Of the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad. out toward lexington
Mr. Graham predicted that in ten years
time the wholesale business of the city
must inevitably drift to some point out
toward lexington or beyond or into
South Washington, and he thought be-
cause Of the limited space in South
Washington. that the trend OF things was
10 some point north of the Baltimore
and Ohio freight yards.

THINGS A WOMAN CAN DO.
From the Washington Times.

FROM the WasnlnBton HINES.
There are three things that every
wonlan might do to help In identifying
the world and making life better worth
irving.
One of these is to make her person as
beautiful as she can by observing the
saws of health and preserving hat
tranquil, trustful state OF mine which
Is reflected in the face and manner
Another Is to learn to beautify her
dress. This does not mean to increase
Its complexity or it's adherence to the
changes OF fashion; but rather to study
an3 experiment. until she n out VIA
for<is. colors and styles are most be-
coming to her, then adopt these, in
Embarrassing and garments.
The third thing is to beautify the
place wherein she lives, whether 1t Is
one room or a spacious home. Weed
our the wrong things; rearrange the
others n force your dwelling place to
express In same way your own feelings
after what is beautiful and true.
I No matter o circumscribed her life,
these three steps toward the betterment
,oc the world are within every woman's
reach.
She may not be able to take part In
great civic movements The circle OF
her influence may be a small one.
Yet IL there is in her an ideal of
beauty, which find its expression In
the steadfast Improvement of her home,
her health and her dress, she Is doing
the biggest kind of artistic work.
AL reforms and al, progress begin
with and work o. through the indi-
-viGENl..

THE SOCIAL HOUR.
One Thino Scotch Can't Hoard.

Miss Elizabeth Marbury, OF the board
of governors OF New York's woman's club,
the Colonx, was discussing the question
of the clubs liquor license.
ut Is rather a matter OF indifference to
u.s. she sad, whether we get a license
or not. Women, you know, are not given
to drinking. They are too careful OF their
appearance. They desire to remain slim
and fresh, and vine, as you know, tends
to make us coarse and stale and fat.
80, If we had a license, l think we
should sell little. 1t would not be with us
as with a farmer l once met In Scotland.
Travelling In the Scottish highlands one
summer, l stopped at a farm house for a
cup of milk, and the view from the door
was so lovely that l said to the farmer:
All, what a superb place to live In
=" 'Ou, aye he answered, in conventional
Scotch, it's a r!cht; but hoo wad We like,
ma'am to haze TO walk fufteen mile ilka

He shook his head sadly.
