 A baldheaded man often looks ten years older than he Is.
 A man with gray hair always does.
 It is important nowadays that man looks as young as he Is; 1t is vastly important that man having fam fly dependent upon him should take care of his hair.

 Installation.

Mobile. Nov. l6.--(Special )--Accord- ing to the provisions of resolution passed at the meeting of the General Council tonight and introduced by Ai- dernan J. H Norwiile, the affairs and conduct of the Mobile Electric Com pany will be investigated by the Coun- ell sitting as a committee of the whole.
 There was very little of importance to come before the Council except this matter which met the endorsement of the Council.
 The sweeping resolution Is as fol- lows:
 ''Whereas. There exists much com plaint and dissatisfaction among the patrons of the Mobile Electric Com pany on account of the methods and conditions imposed by said company In requiring cash deposits to cover cost of instailmept and estimated cost of electric current for first month and the conditions governing the refund of such deposits.
 "Therefore, be it resolved, That a committee of five be appointed by the Chairman of the meeting tonight with instructions to make specific and deh- uite report of their findings to this General Council st It's next regular session, and to present and recommend the adoption of such an ordinance as will be effective In the protection of the people from any unjust, or unnec- essary burdens.
 "Be 1t further resolved, That should 1t be found. upon such investigation, that the Mobile Electric Company should be sustained In the collection of such cash deposits. that they be re- quired to pay to such depositors the legal rate of interest for the time such deposits are held. and that the above mentioned committee recommend such measure as will make this effective.
 The resolution will be taken up by the entire Council at a special session to be called later.

 Dr. wilkerson cited several in- stances relative to the matter, laying particular stress on the danger chill dren were exposed to through care- lessness of parents. He suggested that each child should be assessed 25c a year, saying that from the 1000 ehfi-' dren in the city. the 5000 thus ob- tained, would support the offlce.
 Alderman Moritz introduced an or- dinance providing for the creation of the office of Physician School Inspect or. at salary of $50 a month. The of ficial to devote the hour from S:45 to 9:45 a. m. each school day to the work. The ordinance was referred to the Committee on Schools and Finance.
 Petitions from many of the residents of the streets for which paving was proposed at the last Council meeting, asking that he paving be abapdoned, were read. Also amendments to many of them suggesting cheaper paving than asphalt bitulithic and brick. These were referred to the Street and Finance Committees A PGtlLiOu AfoIil tHG ooutHGtH EAphr rS0 Company to reduce their license was referred to the Finance Committee. Mayor Teague has vetoed several or dinances provided for the paying of the salaries of policemen who have been III. on the ground that the matter should now come under the Jurisdiction of the Police. Commissioners.
 The Councflmen held that as the of-l ficers had been, incapacitated for work before the Police Commission went into ofice, the matter was still at their dts posal, and so acted. It was decided in future, however, to refer all such mat ters to the Commission.
 An ordinance was introduced provid- ing for the doing away with all fruit stands on streets, and warning proper- ty holders before which the stands are placed that it will be illegal for them to rent out such space. This was rec fenred to the Finance Committee.
 There were many amendments of- fered to several minor ordinances that took up so much time that much bus mess had to be overlooked. Because of this. special meeting of the Coun- cil will be held next Monday night.
