LONG AND SHORT HAUL FEATURE OF
 R. R. LITIGATION

Waterbury, Nov. 28-The detailed story of the latest interstate commerce commission inquiry into New Haven road freight rates, centering around the shipment of trap rock from a West Cheshire quarry was given to the United Press, to-day, by Civil En- gineer Charles Preston, Jr., one of the promoters of the trap rock company. When he, B. P. Durham, of Kensing- ton. and other prominent Waterbur- ians decided to found $100,000 cOrpo- ration to quarry rock on a 2S0 acre site in West Cheshire, MT. Preston said, they went to the New Haven road to get a freight rate that would allow them to compete with their near est competitor, a Plainville quarry.
 Vice-President Campbell, of the New York, New Haven & Hartford Rail road, made them a rate of 75 cents pe1 ton from West Cheshire to Waterbury ] distance of nine miles and five cents a ton additional for other points through the Naugatuck valley. The Plainville Company. 21 miles away from Waterbury, then had a 50 cent rate and no additional charge for low CT Naugatuck valley points.
 He and his colleagues, said MT. Pres ton, did not consider the 75 cent rate for minute as it was exorbitant in the extreme. Vice-President Cambell later came down to 50 cents, the Plain vile rate. But, as this made the charge for the nine mile West Chesh- ire haul the same as the charge for the 21 mile Plainville haul and as the New Haven road refused to further lower its rate to the local promoters they took the matter to the inter- state commerce commission. This body asked for detailed brief. The brief was ready for mailing, to-day said Engineer Preston. Later, he ex- pected to see an interstate commerce commission agent here to investigate the whole business.

MODERN PLAGUE
 IS PREVALENT
Remarkable New Tonic Dis
 covered By Austrian

A ceieDrated Austrian physician, Dr. IL. J. Schat, was the first to announce IHaC nigh state of civilization had uepll1tated modern nations; his claim that half the population are suffer ing rom nervous debility, produced by the strain under which we live, mas hnally been admitted by physi- clans throughout the world! III recent years a tonic has been introduced in leading European cities 10 nelp build up the countless num- bers Of rundown, nervous, debilitated people produced by modern life and tAe results have been remarkable. Today in the chief cities of Europe, thousands have renewed their health tnrough the use of this tonic. The action of the medicine is very rapid, good effects being obtained from it in only a few moments time.
 A c"-2EanN has been formed to put q Si.n -or jsl icine upon the AIl11-'i- c-1 market; the preparation is call ed Tona Vita" in the United States and in the cities where It is being intro- duced, it is proving trem endously suc- cessful. Specialists have been sta | tioned here to demonstrate the action of the medicine and have been meet ing many thousands of people and eplaining the nature of the prepara- ton to them.
 } The general symptoms of debility are irregular appetite. poor digestion, headache, backache, constipation, poor memory, nervousness, physical and mental depression, and a general low state of health. The common expres- sion for this condition is "all run down." In such cases the tonic acts with remarkable rapidity.
 European physicians are aware of it's introduction in this country. Dr.. James Spoyer of London, England, says in this connection: eff the United States has escaped having a. large per- centage of its popula.ion in poor phy- sical condition, owing to debility, I will be greatly surprised. It seems certain the same methods of living that have produced this condition to such a great extent in England and the. continent, have had a like effect in the United States
 There is an attendant remedy known as Lees, Rhubarb Laxative, which is most valuable to those suffer pleasant to the taste, does not gripe and acts promptly.
 The specialists introducing this re- markable new tonic, 'Tona Vita,'' are located at Jennie Hamilton's Pharma- cy, where they will meet all callers from a. m. to 6 p. m., and explain the merits of their preparation.
 A free trial will be given to the first five hundred callers, providing their symptoms show them to be sufferers from nervous debility, repairing all or an and proving a lasting source of benefit and relief. When buoyant spirits return and depression gives away to cheerfulness, it is hard to recognize some of the former suf- ferers.

An Early Street Cleaner.

"One day." Ben Franklin wrote in his autobiography, 'I found a poor, in- dustrious man, who was willing to un- dertake keeping the pavement clean by sweeping it twice week, carrying off the dirt from before all the neigh bors' doors for the sum of sixpence per month to be paid by each house. I then wrote and printed paper set ting forth the advantages to the neigh borhood that might be obtained by this small expense I sent one of these papers to each house and in day or two went around to see who would subscribe an agreement to pay these sixpences. It was unanimously signed and for a time well executed. This raised a general desire to have all the streets paved and made the people more willing to submit to a tax for that purpose. Survey.

Grave Humor.


 The punster is irrepressible. He even indites his jokes on tombstones. An epitaph in Waltham abbey informs us that Sir James Fullerton died fuller of faith than of fears, fuller of resolu- tions than of pains, fuller of honour than of days.'
 There is another of Daniel Tears: 'Though strange, yet true, full seventy years was his wife happy in her Tears"
 This was written of an organist: "Here lies one, blown out of breath, who lived a merry life and died Meri- deth."
 Another says: "Here lies Thomas Huddlestone. Reader, don't smile, but reflect as this tombstone you view that Death, who killed him, in very short while will huddle stone upon you."- Pearson's Weekly.

Effective greenery for the dining room table may be made by planting the seeds of grapefruit. Sow them thickly, and in two weeks, if the earth is good and has been kept moist in a warm place, the little shoots appear.
