cases of eczema and other distress
ing skin Affections. Heretofore
poslam has been dispensed solely
for the benefit of eczema patients
in large jars sufficient for a

to be an inconvenience to many
thousands who use it for minor
skin troubles, such as pimples,
blackheads, herpes. acne. scaly
scalp. complexion blemishes. itch.
ing feet, piles, ETC.. which require
but small quantity to cure. To
overcome this. and in response to
urgent appeals. the dispensers of
poslam have been obliged to adopt,
in addition to the regular two-dol-
lar packages. a special fifty-cent
size. which in future may be found
on sale at Murgtttroyd's and Rit-

Schise and the work now started

! The grantees of the franchise
had every reason to start work
on the franchise. -. Unless work
commenced on or before February
IA of this year the valuable grant
was subject to forfeit. 1t was for
thtis reason that construction was
started in the soft earth at the
end of the big fill west of the Ter
1minal building. The work will be
prosecuted far enough to insure
the safety of the franchise, after
which the company will attempt
to secure several important altera-
tons in the plans.
1t is known that. the plans as
in the franchise are not
wholly satisfactory from an engi-
neering standpoint and there are
several problems regarding the
matter of grade which will have
to be solved, and this will prob
ably come up before the city coun.
Gil. The tunnel, under the terms
of the franchise, is to be COM
pleted in two years from Febru-
airy IA, but it is understood that
this time will be extended if the
plans are changed as now desired.

Some Auto Rules

The following rules of the road have
been sent ont by an automobile acces-
sorry company, which might prove
amusing to motorists:
Adopted ny the Farmers Anti-Auto-
mobile society:
1. On discovering All approaching
team, the automobilist must stop off
side and cover his machine with a
blanket painted to correspond with the
scenery. .'.1.
. 2. The speed limit on country roads
this year will be q secret, and the
penalty for violation will be $40 for
every mile IN offender is caught going
in excess of il. ..,....-
g. In case an automobile makes u
team run away the penalty will be
$50 for the first mile, 500 for the
second, $500 for the third, ETC., that the
team runs; in addition to the usual
damages.
4. On approaching corner where
he cannot command a view of the road
ahead, the automobilist must stop not
less than Il 100 yards from the turn, toot
his horn, ring a bell, fire a revolver,
halloo, and send up three bombs at
intervals of five minutes.
). Automobiles must again be sea-
sonably painted, that is so they will
merge with the pastoral ensemble and
not be startling. They must be green
i'll spring, golden in summer, red in
autumn and white in winter.
6. Automobiles running on the
country road ut night, must send up a
red rocket every mile, and wait ten
minutes for the road to clear. They
may then proceed carefully blowing
their horns and shooting Roman
candles.
7. All members of the society will
give up Sunday to chasing automobiles,
shooting and shouting at them, making
arrests and otherwise discouraging
country touring on that day.
8. In case horse will not pass an
automobile, the automobilist will take
the machine apart as rapidly as possible
and conceal the parts in the grass.

FOOD PRODUCTS AND
HIGH PRICES

TO Il people wise in their day ana
generation criticism of men ana
things among them is of more value
than praise or boasting, and SO we take
it that the warning uttered by james j.
Hill, chairman of the Great Northern
board of directors an experienced rail
way man, in his speech before the
bankers i'll Chicago can be made OF
some service to the community, because
there is always IL question us to how
long this nation may continue to secure
the abundance of food products it has
done up to the present day.
Nevertheless. there are many who
will think that Mr.. Hill is rather pre-
mature in his apprehension that unless
we can increase the agricultural popula-
ton and it's product the question of a
source of food supply at home will soon
Supersede the question of a market for
our own products abroad" For, they
don't believe that we nave almost reach
ed point where, us he says, owing to
increased population without increased
production per acre; our home food
supply will be insufficient for our own
needs.
Some attention is due to the state
Inents OF SO experienced an agriculture
list and statistician as Secretary Wilson
of the Federal Department in charge of
such matters; and as his flat contradic-
ton of the spectators in wheat who
last March had the impudence and
mendacity TO assert that the extortion-
ate price they forced it up to was due
to It's scarcity and not to it's cornering
ny them, was amply sustained later on,
the public will FATHER accent his state
ment or few weeks ago that there was
a larger acreage of what this year and
u larger production per acre, than Mr..
Hills that the percentage of the popula-
ton engaged in agriculture and the
wheat product per acre are both failing.
Ii the two statements are taken for
what they are really worth, the farmers
or the country, and the e. untry itself.
may profit from them. But, again it is
to be said that the high cost of living is
not due t" the scarcity of food products,
including everything from meat to
wheat, but to the Stand Pat" tariff
under which competition from foreign
lands being excluded, combinations to
Kill OFT domestic competition have been
formed and the necessaries of life seized
and monopolizod by Brooklyn

straight into the air and struck the
