GREAT SYSTEM FOR

New York. May 30.-In q little
known office on the third floor Of the
famous 900 Mulberry street, other
wise police headquarters. the greatest
repository Of secret news and an
known information in the country,
there may be found the mar who for
wears has held Il unique title. OF
ficially he is the chief surgeon of the
nolice department, actually he is the
director Of human repairs for greater
New York. As an expert in the dis
tribution of the human flotsam and
ictsam injured in the hurry 5urly 2f
the city's daily life, his unofficial title
is unparalleled. and sitting in the OBJ
scure center of a complicated web, il
is his duty to know of and arrange for
the care of every person injured in
the CITY. The radial lines Of his web
are the police wires; his agents. the
notice and the ambulances; and the
workshops the various hospitals 10
which at his direction the injured hui
man machines are taken. Under his
direction is the care Of every person
injured in the city who Is not cared
for at home. How enormous is this
task is shown by the fact that sAere
we're more than $4,000 reported in
iuries in his city last year--53,S14 to
be exact, an increase of 1881 over
1907. or approximately equal to tho
percentage of increase in population.
That roughly is equal to 145 calls

ANOTHER IMPORTANT VICTORY
FOR THE CARTER MEDICINE
COMPANY IN THE UNITED
STATES COURT.

The United States Circuit Court for
the Southern District of New York
sitting in New York City-has just
awarded to the Carter Medicine Com
pany decree which again sustains
the company's exclusive right to use
the red package for liver pills.
By the terms of the decree, 1t Is,
among other things:
Adjudged that the Carter Medicine
Company is the owner of the sole and
exclusive right to the use of red col
ored wrappers and labels upon said
small, round packages of liver pills of
the style described in the bill of COM
plant; said right having been ac-
CURED by the prior adoption of said
style and color of package for liver
pills by the complainant predecessors
more than thirty years ago, and es-
tablished by the continuous and ex-
elusive use of the same in constantly
increasing quantities by said prede-
cessors and by the complainant, the
Carter Medicine Company, itself, from
the time of their said adoption until
the present day.
The decision just announced is per-
haps the most important and far-reach-
ing of all, by reason of the character
of the tribunal which rendered it. No
Court in the country stands higher.
