When the heart action is
weak, it fails to pump the blood
through the lungs with sufficient
rapidly. Then the lungs do not
absorb the proper amount OF
oxygen, although they may be
taking in a normal amount OF
air. The result is shortness OF
breath, smothering spells, diffl-
cult breathing, oppressed feeling
in chest. DIR. Miles Heart REM

NEWSPA PERS
find CHAMPION

CHICAGO, June 24.-The newspaper
has found a champion in President
Harry Pratt Judson, of the University
of Chicago. Its work, declared the
educator, is as Useful as that of the
colleges. The muck rake may be the
instrument of reform; the sensational,
when important, is to be desired, and
the wonder is not that the press makes
so many errors. but that it makes so
few.
All men are puryeyors of false re-
ports. partly because the truth is SO
elusive, partly because it is so difficult
to disassociate knowledge from beliefs,
and partly because of the inaccuracies
of memory"
Then he suggested these principals
for the newspapers.
THAT the province of the newspaper
is to print the news without prejudice
THAT the observer who wallows in
filth and the idealist who sees only
he blue sky and the sunshine are alike

He continued:
In discussing sensationalism the
line must be distinctly drawn between
the newspaper which appreciates news
value and the newspaper which re-
CARDS violence as the mark of good
story. | believe that the public is be-
coming more civilized and that the
paper which elects to give Importance
to the public will find an ever growing
clientele.
THE defects of the modern news
paper, like the defects of our uni
versities, are not for the thoughtless
or the uniformed to point out. None
of us is perfect, But in the place Of
indiscriminate criticism, which is al
too easily made, l should like to see
careful study made of the methods o
the hundred leading newspapers o
the country. l believe that such
study would be as valuable as tn
more careful criticisms of the univei
stiles that are now in the book stalls.

One Division Between Canton and
New Orleans Now Being Operated
Arrangement Being Made to
Equip Entire Road.

JACKSON, Miss, June 24.-The |
Illinois Central is now operating trains
on the Louisiana division between
Canton and New Orleans by long dis
lance telephone.
A complete telephone system for
train dispatching has been installed
at all stations along the line and here
after the click of the telegraph key
will be heard less frequently than
heretofore.
1t is not the purpose Of the COM
pany however, to completely abandon
the telegraph system of train dis
patching. 1t will be employed as an
auxiliary service, but when phones are
installed on all divisions they will be
used for dispatching trains, and the
telegraph wires will be used chiefly
for general business.
Several of the great roads in the
northern part of the country have al
ready adopted this plan, notably the
Burlington, the Pennsylvania lines, the
Erie and the New York Central These
roads have had the system in opera
ton for some time, and it has been
found to be a decided Improvement
over the old system of using the tele-
graph wires for dispatcning and han
ding trains in many ways.
The idea is not a new one with the
Illinois Central management. The Of
ficials have been maturing plans for
it's adoption for a twelve month. A
complete system of telephone wires
was installed on the entire Illinois
Central last year, a partial system
having been in use for the past three
or four years. The lines were built
under contract by the Cumberland
Telephone and Telegraph Company
and the entire equipment is the best
that modern skill could perfect.
Recently a new invention, upon
which G. II. Groce, superintendent of
telegraph and signals of the Illinois
| Central, has been working for some
time, has been perfected and patented
This is a piece of electrical apparatus
known as a collector. One Of the
collectors is installed at each tele
| graph station. The stations are called
from the dispatchers' office just as
they are by telegraph, by pressing g
key, but instead of the telegraphit
signal, bell rings in the office, ant
| the orders are then transmitted as OF
the ordinary telephone.
The entire system the western line!
out of Chicago and the southern lines
are now being equipped with the ap
paratus and within thirty days it is ex
pected that every train on the grea
system will be handled by orders
transmitted by phone.
Officials of the road state that
broader field for promotion in the rail
way service will be opened by the sub
stitution of the telephone for the tele
graph. Heretofore one of the bes
! stepping stones in railway service wa
| the telegraph key. Trainmasters, d
vision superintendent and other off
Gals usually came up through the ave
nue. of the telegraph key, but the goa
was difficult to reach because of tn
technical knowledge necessary to b
an operator While this branch ofth
service has and does embrace fin
class of men, their technical advantag
has made it difficult for those not Ill
Outstanding the click of the key
make much Roadway.
