Grateful Woman Writes Of
FIVE PERFECT CURES
BY CUTlCURA REMEDIES.

g Cuticura Remedies saved my two
children. "a Ny little girls face was so
covered with sores that she could not
see and I thought at one time that her
eyesight was gone for good. After
two doctors had failed to do her any
good friend asked me to try the Cuti-
cura Remedies. I did SO and in two or
three days we could see great change
and in four weeks she was well and her
face was smooth and had cured nicely.
She had been sore for three months So
that she could not rest night or day.
My little boy was sore all over. His
head was a solid scab. First we tried q
doctor who did him no good, but the
first time I bathed my sons head with
Cuticura Soap and put Cuticura Oint-
ment on it he rested better at night
and the next morning his head was
much better. In FIVE weeks he was
well. I cannot say enough for the
Cuticura Remedies for if I had not used
them my baby would have died. My
little sister, Nora had q terribly
sore face. IN told my mother of the
Cuticura Remedies. She used them
and the child's face soon got well after
the best doctors had failed. Pearl
B used Cuticura Soap, Ointment,
and Pills for sores on her body and face,
and little Pinkey S 49, had sore
head. Her mother used Cuticura Soap
and Ointment on it and she was soon
well. Mrs. Mary Hicks, Sutherland,

ARE TESTING ENGINEERS,
Panhandle Hopes to Lessen the Dam
ger of Wrecks.

III passenger engineers on the
Pennsylvania divisions running out
of Richmond should some night be
confronted with red signals at places
where there should be none, they
should remember that the officials
of the Pennsylvania Railroad have
decided to inaugurate a system of
surprise tests which requires i'm
mediate s1oppage of trains. The
crews of all trains will hereafter keep
their vigilant eye open for the sig
mails, for if they are not needed
things may look decidedly blue for
the men, for at least thirty days
1t is the idea of the officials. ac-
cording to the statement of a local
railroader, to test the trainmen to
the fullest extent and further pro-
vide safety to the travelling public
The test system it is said will also
form an optical test, as all manner
of signals will be used in order to
bring the trains to a stop. Passengers
should not be alarmed either, should
they feel the grinding of wheels and
the buckling of cars. occasioned by
sudden stop. Although the engineers
and firemen are fearful of the signals
in that they are afraid they will miss
one, they think that it is a good move
on the part of the Pennsylvania COM
pany, in that it will teach them the
lesson of eternal vigilance" to a
greater or less extent

IMPROVE SUBSIDIARY LINES.
Main Divisions of the Panhandle Are
Now Satisfactory.

The Pennsylvania has adopted an
entirely new system. and a notice has
been sent to all the stockholders stat
ing that hereafter the road would
spend large portion of that money
which has been heretofore placed on
buildings and grounds on the main di-
visions, on the lines and equipment of
the subsidiary lines. Although the
Pennsylvania has in the past paid
great attention TO the main divisions
OF the road, they have never neglected
the branch lines as has many of the
other leading railroads of the country
It is said that the new step by the
road has arisen out of the present
freight congestion and number OF ac-
cidents along the short lines of the
system BY spending more money on
these branch lines the roads can. be
placed in such position to work in bet
ter order with the trains and condi-
fions on the main divisions OF the ex-
tremelv intricate system

FIRST COMPLETE STEEL CAR.
Cannot Telescope, No Matter How Sc
we're the Wreck.

This will soon be the steel car age
according TO the statements of an
official at the Pennsylvania station
yesterday. La addition to the exper-
iments with steel postal cars, the
four already erected which have prov
en- highly satisfactory. the Pullman
Car company of Chicago, has turned
out its first complete steel car, and
will soon be placed under all manner
OF difficult and strenuous tests to
prove its worth. The car was COM
pleted last week, and it is under
stood that the Pennsylvania railroad
has made a request that the Pullman
company begin Immediately, in stock
ing the road with steel cars.
The former Pullman cars. and
those more up-to-date models are
greatly braced by steel girders and
other construction, but at the same
time it has been shown that even
these were no proof against rear-end
collisions. The step of the Pullman
company is the direct outgrowth of
long experiments. According to the
statements of local railroader who
has worked where tests of steel cars
have been made, the cars cannot tel
escope under any conditions AS soon
as they are smashed together the car
couplings are broken and the cars

ASKED TO UNLOAD QUICKLY.
Efforts Made to Avoid Freight Block
ade by Pennsy.

The freight officials of the Rich
mond division are making every
available effort to head off any SER
ious blockade of freight cars on the
division, as they fully appreciate the
meaning. Up to date the Richmond
division is one of the few which has
kept up particularly we'll in the
quick transportation of both loaded
and unloaded cars, but in the past
two weeks the division has been
threatened to a greater extent than
ever before in the history of the To-
cal line. Orders have been sent out
to all those who would have it in
their power to move the cars, while
requests have been sent to the ship
pers and consignees themselves ask
ing them to aid in preventing the
blockade by loading and unloading
freight cars quickly. A liberal re-
Spouse has been received. Although
everything seems dark at the present
time, the local officials see a ray of
sunshine in the distance Local of
ficials believe, and state as a fact,
that the present chances for block
ade are brought about by the slow
ness in unloading and loading cars
by the shippers and consignees. The
freight situation on the Richmond
division is watched with eager inter
est, but is of no more vital impor-
lance than the blockades on the other
divisions of the Pennsylvania, which
are suffering to a greater extent than
the Richmond division.

Outlook for the Richmond
Art Exhibit Exceedingly
Bright at Present Time.

Preparations are under way for the
annual art exhibit to be conducted
in Richmond next June under the au-
spices of the Richmond Art assoeia-
ton. 1t is hoped to make it the most
interesting and profitable of the
many that have been held. 1t is pos
sible that Richmond may again aid
the Muncie association, which will
give another exhibit this year, and
which probably will be allowed to
make use of some things that are
used in the Richmond exhibit.
Mrs M. +. Johnston, president of
the association, has already made
trips to indianapolis and Chicago,
and later will go to Pittsburg. New
York and Washington City. where
there will be opportunities to select
some works new to Richmond peo-
pie.
Indications at this time are that
conditions this year will be of the
most favorable nature and that the
financial situation probably will be
the best i'm the history of the asso-
citation.

SCHOOL ROOMS Closed
SCARLET FEVER SPREADS
City Health Officer Takes Prompt
Action at the Hibberd Building,
Where Paul ouigg, Who Has the
Disease, Attends.

AS the direct result of the discovery
of scarlet fever in the home of vii
+ liam Quigg, at Ill South Eleventh
/ street, four rooms were yesterda.
/ closed at the Hibberd school at Eighth
and South F streets, in that three OF
/ the Quigg children had been directly
exposed and had attended school while
the. symptoms of the disease had been
developing with their little brother
Paul, aged four years.
The three grade rooms in which the
Quigg children were regular attend
ants were closed while the other
closed was the German recitation
room. All of them were thoroughly
disinfected yesterday by City SAM
tary Inspector Young, and the Quigg
home and two other families who had
been directly exposed were placed I'M
der a rigid quarantine until the symp-
Tins of the disease further dyelop.
Another case was also reported at
the health office yesterday Eleanor,
four-year-old daughter of Clarence A.
Joliff, of A South Ninth street being
infected with the dreaded disease. The
home has been placed under quaran-
tine but as no persons have been di-
rectly exposed, the child being re-
CURED to remain within doors for the
past two weeks, other homes will not
be quarantined.
The two cases reported yesterday
have no direct connection with others
which have made their appearance
within the past few days.
Through Outside Sources.
Scarlet fe germs are easily car
ried through me mails, and DR.. Bond,
the city health officer, is of the opin-
ion that Richmond people are con-
tracing the disease through outside
sources, through the mail which they
are receiving. 1t is probable that as
soon as Dr. Bond can locate the
of cities, that are now
infected with the pest, he will ask
Postmaster Spekenhier to disinfect all
mail from such points. During the re-
cent scarlet fever plague in Chicago,
Mr.. Spekenhier diSinfected all Chica-
go mail, and it IS thought this in a
large measure was responsible for the
quick stamping out of the disease
here. In speaking of the matter yes
terday, Dr. Bond stated that one let
-er from an infected home would con-
animate an entire mail pouch, and he
believed by disinfecting the mail from
affected towns and cities, scarlet fever |
n a great measure could be stamped |
)ut in Richmond.
There are several cases of the di- |
'ease in the northern portion of
Wayne county but whether or not Dr.
Bond will have all mail from sections
disinfected,~ he would not |
tate.

jured and they are also protected
from fire. in case it should break out
amid the wreckage and debris OF the
wooden cars.
1t will only be the course of few
years before the railroads viii de-
mand that all Tiillman cars be con-
structed of steel, before they will ac-
cept them for service. With the adj
vent of steel Pullman cars comes the
question of proper passenger day
coaches, as it has been demonstrated
in railroad circles that the majority
OF those people killed in collisions are
those who ride in the present flimsy
wooden coaches. AS Pullman cars
are constructed at the present time
they are of such weight that in case
of a head-on collision, they drive i'm
mediately forward and directly
through the passenger coaches when
the train is brought to an immediate
and sudden stop. Steel postal cars
are being constructed and in case
railroads use both steel postal and
uiiHidn Cars, passenger coaches VIII
also have to be constructed of steel,
or the passengers will have about as
much chance for their lives as a mos
quito on cold winter morning. The
experiments along steel construction
at the present time, is the beginning
of a great movement in the railroad
world In the course of the next ten
years, it is safe to predict that en-
tire passenger trains from the engine
pilot TO the rear end platform will
be constructed entirely of steel.
