How little is known of the differ
ence of time across the continent and
the time divisions, that questions of
nine out of ten persons will fail to
bring forth any definite knowledge,
as any one may find by trying it.
Every railroad has different points
upon their lines at which they change
the running time. And misleading
thing is that. while there is only
three hours difference between New
York and San Francisco, there are
four time divisions. They are known
as the Eastern, Central, Rocky Noun
tain and Pacific. New York is in the
Eastern, Chicago in the Central. Den
yer in the Rocky Mountain and San
Francisco in the Pacific. An idea of
how the points of change upon the
railroads runs may be gathered from
the points dividing the Central and
Rocky Mountain times. On the Bur-
lington the change takes place at
McCook, Neb.; on the Union Pacific,
at North Platte. Neb.; on the Kansas
Pacific. at Ellis, Kan; on the Rock
Island. at Goodland. Kan. and on the
Santa Fe. at Dodge City, Kan.

However, President Hally, of the
council, declares he belieevs the ac-

force the situation.
Representatives of all sides declare
that they are simply waiting for re-

The Brotherhood carpenters de-

More white things are worn in the sum
mer-lawns, hannels, muslins and SO forth.
That means more washing. Likewise more
hard work-unless Fels-Naptha soap is used.
Fels-Naptha simplifes summer washing
and does it more satisfactorily. No hot
fire is needed. That means good deal
when the thermometer is 90 In the shade.
Fels-Naptha does the washing thor
oughly in cold or lukewarm water. Cold
or lukewarm water saves the clothes. Boil
ing and hot water weaken clothes SO they
tear easily.
Fels-Naptha will not harm the most
delicate fabric Neither will it injure light
colored things which could not be washed
safely with other soaps or in hot water.
The advantage of using Fels-Naptha
soap is the FelS-Naptha way of washing.
Don't cook your clothes. Use
Fels-Naptha. 1t does the work better IN
cold or lukewarm water.
