NOTHING DOING
FOR SHORT GIRLS

WASHINGTON, March 4.-"Less
than five feet? You can't be a tele
phone girl"
Such is the rule of big telephone
companies, according to report
compiled for the senate by the labor
bureau, and made public today.
The girls must be high enough to
reach the top of the switchboards
and reasonable distance side
ways. This being the case, it is
easy to see what chance the short
girl has.
A widespread and intelligent eff
fort on the part of the companies
to look after the comfort of the
women employees, was found by the
bureau, but wages are still far be-
low what might be desired.

Farming and Longevity.

Mortality figures compiled b. the
United States Census Bureau Indicate
that the simple life is conducive to
longevity. Statistics covering eigh-
teen States for the year 1908 show
that disease, accidents and suicides

work on farms than from those who
are employed In other Yoeationa.
The farmer Is much less susceptible
to some Of the fatal maladieg. such ~

This Is to be expected as the farmer
lives largely out of doors and fresh
air and sunshine are potent enemies
Of disease germs. One notably fatal
malady. however, is more prevalent
proportionately among farmers than
among residents OF cities. Thai NAL
ady Is typhoid fever and its frequency
IN rural localities undoubtedly Is due
to the unsanitary conditions which
exist on many farms In this country.

The State House Commission met
in Dover Tuesday in special session
to take up matters pertaining to the
work on the new Administration
building. For some reason work on
the building had been practically
suspended for several days, owing,
it is said, to the men not receiving
pay for work done. After lengthy
and busy session of the commission,
Architect Tilton and a representative
of the John E. Carter Co. being
present, at which matters were fully
discussed, it was reported that an
adjustment of affairs had been made
and that the work on the building
would be resumed at once. C. L.
Mead, one of the members of the
firm, appeared and made a substan-
tial deposit and furnished evidence
that everything is clear to speedy
operation. During the day, the con-
tractors made tests with various

INVESTIGATE DEATH OF
WALTER MONEYS STOCK
DR.MCDOWELL,OF MIDDI.ETOWN,
MAKES REPORT TO STATE BOARD
Makes an Exhaustive Statement Con-
cerning the Six Horses Which Died
Above Smyrna Recently.

A most unusual incident of farm
animal infection and a public post
mortem has come to the notice of the
authorities as result of a new GUS
tom. In compliace with the new
ruling of the State Board of Agri-
culture to the effect that veterina-
rians are required to make a monthly
report, DIR. H. B. Mcdowell, of
Middletown, submitted the following
for March: "On March II | was
called to the farm of Walter C.
Money, near Townsend, where
found one horse that had died sud-
denly and two that were down.
Those two and two others died with
in the next forty-eight hours, a loss
of five horses in two days. The
sixth horse was taken sick on the
twentieth and died on the twenty
first of March. / reported these
facts to Mr.. Shallcross and asked
that DR.. Dawson and DR.. Ewes be
called in consultation. They both
agreed in confirming my diagnosis
of forage poisoning. After the
death of the sixth horse DR.. Ewes
and myself held post mortem which
confirmed our diagnosis. Many of
the farmers of the neighbornood were
present and previous to the post
mortem we explained the exact con-
dition that we expected to find. The
examination proved exactly as we
anticipated. This allayed any feeling
that we had dangerously contagious
disease to deal with. Forage
poisoning is a disease which we be-
lieve has its origin in mouldy feed.
such as corn, fodder, mouldy straw,
mouldy hay. or any other mouldy
feed. In this instance the trouble
was pobably caused by some mouldy
straw and old stack-bottom that had
just been hauled into the barnyard.
The active principle is supposed to
be ptomaine acting on the nerve
centers, causing first a paralysis of
the muscles of deglutition and later
a general paralysis. No treatment
is known that is effectual when once
the animal is affected. The most
we can do is to find the soucre of the
infection, remove the infected ma
terial and thus save the animals re-
naming in the place. In DR.. Moneys
case there are six horses remaining
on the farm that will probably es.
cape owing to our recommendation
to take them off the infected food. -

M. p. Conference

The next session of the Maryland
Annual Conference of the M. P
Church will be held in Broadway
Church, Baltimore, April 9th to 18th.
An interesting feature in connection
with the sessions is the fact that the
members OF Broadway Church con-
gregation will celebrate the fftieth
anniversary of its founding on Sun
day, April 10th. All the ministers
who have started their career from
that church will deliver addresses at
the evening service on that day. A
most interesting history is that of
the Broadway Methodist Protestant
Church from the date of it's dedica-
tion on April 10th, 1860, until the
present day. Just so yeal ago,
largely through the efforts of Rev.
Jesse Shreeves, who died some years
ago, the church was started when
that section of the city was hardly
developed and the Johns Hopkins
Hospital, which stands directly
across the street, was not even
dreamed of. The church occupies
the site of the old cemetery, which
had been abandoned prior to the
time of this building. The present
parsonage, on Monument street, is
on the ground on which stood the
tent in which services were con-
Quoted by Rev. Mr.. Shreeves during

Doan's Kidney Pills cure the
cause of disease, and that is why the
cures are always lasting. This rem
edy strengthens and tones up the kid
neys, helping them to drive out of the
body the liquid poisons that cause
backache, headache and distressing
kidney and urinary complaint. Smyr-
ma people can testify to permanent
cures.
George T. Newson, Spruance City,
Smyrna, Del, says: 81 suffered
from backache for several years. At
times l was so lame and weak that
l could hardly walk and there was a
constant, heavy pain in my kidneys.
