BILLS OF LAD1NG
SYSTEM STANDS

New Orleans, May 23.-Following a
conference between foreign freight
agents of railroad lines entering New
Orleans and representatives of steam
ship companies here this afternoon, it
was announced tonight that no action
had been taken regarding a change OF
system as to through bills of lading,
now under consideration. The confer
ence adjourned to meet at some flu
ture date not yet fixed.
That the present system of thru agh
bills of lading might offer certain
1ooph oles of fraud was agreed, but
just how the remedial measures shall
be applied has mot been definitely
agreed upon. 1t was reported that an
entire adjustment of through bills of
lading might be decided upon, but
those who engaged in the conference
today said that they were not prepared
row to say that such a course is feas-
ible.
This matter has been under discus
sion for some days as a result of the
bankruptcy proceedings and develop
ments in the cases or Knight, Yancey
& Co., of Alabama and Steel, Miller G.
Co., of Mississippi. Action on the mat
ter was taken following an invitation
by the steamship agents of New Or
reans to the foreign freight agents of
the various trunk lines with terminals
in New Orleans for a conference.
Among the safeguarding methods
tentatively offered is refusal to is
sue absolute through bills of lading on
export business. 1t is proposed to is
sue provisional bills of lading which
shall not be honored by the banks I'M
til there shall be certificates of the
master of a vessel guaranteeing the
depositing of billed consignments.

- "Halley's comet has been the excuse
for everything freakish that has hap
pened within the past six weeks" said
Miss Lavinia a few days ago as we
chatted about everything in general
and nothing particular. II wonder If IT
isn't influencing Cupid?"
Anything in the love line more ex-

For instance?" queried
"Well, just look at these clippings
said Miss Lavinia as she took from h er
work basket number of things which
she began to assert and read.
Here's one telling of woman who
remarked her husband last week, from
whom she had been divorced IA years.
In the meantime she had married an
other man and had six children. Now,
doesn't that show"
THAT a widow with six children will

Lavinia as she unfolded another lit

who is 106 years old walked six blocks

think he wouldn't have enough strength
at that age to attend his own funeral,
would you? And imagine an old has

true. There's no fool like an old fool

s "And last but not least, is the To-

groom up in Kentucky who eloped last

gustedly.
l's7 "From whom?" I blandly inquired.
's"At that age it would appear there
was nobody to run from"
Just four girls on one side and
five boys on the other" answered Miss
'Lavinia' Now, do you believe if these
people had been in their right senses

Cause of Eczema Explained

After years of debate medical au-
thorities are now agreed that Eczema
and other skin diseases are not seated
in the blood, but are caused by myriads
of microscopic animals gnawing the
flesh just below the epidermis. The
patient is perfectly healthy. it is only
the skin that Is diseased.
Hence, scientists are now agreed that
you must cure the skin through the
skin. The medicine must be in LIQUID
form In order to penetrate properly.
And we can say with confidence that

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR


To the Editor of The Age-Herald.
Will you allow me space in your paper
to protest against the way the candidates
were treated by the qualification commit
tee of the city democratic committee.
The different candidates were told, and
1t was advertised In all the papers. that
the rate assessed for the expense of the
primary election was against each office.
The writer of this letter asked Roger
Snyder for particulars and was told the
same thing, yet when 1t came to qualify
some were charged by the rate per office
while others were charged pro-rata for
the ward. When this was found out and
told the different committeeman around
price and some said it should be another.
This is unfair, as it had tendency to
keep men out of the race.
i know of two men in this ward (Thr-
teenth) who would have run for ward
committeeman had they not been told
that they would have to pay rate of $40
to have their name placed on the ticket
On the strength of this they failed to
qualify, yet when the committee met
without any motion or resolution this
was charged so much per ward instead
of so much per office, as previously stated
and advertised, which made the amount
much less. In justice to the other candi-
dates, l think the committee should re-
assemble and cause the rate to be ar
ranged so as to serve all alike and not
make fish of one and fowl of another.
Their motto should be square deal for
all and all for square deal. Yours truly,
ALFRED l.. THORP.
