RAILROADS WIN IN
 STOVE LITIGATION

Montgomery October 2.-(Special)- A victory for which the railroads of the south have been fighting ever since October of 1910 was won by the com mon carriers before the Alabama rail- road commission in this city today. when an order by the majority of the commissioners was issued requiring stove manufacturers of this state to crate all stoves which are shipped in Alabama in less than carload lots. The order follows in nearly every particu- lar a similar in .erstate order which has been in effect since last fall which re- quires such crating. The dissenting vote to the order of the body was ren- dered today by President Charles Hen derson, who thought with the manu- lecturers that stoves can be readily handled without the entailing of crat- ing expenses. Commissioners Frank N. Julian add Leon McCord took the position of the railroads that the ar ticles should be crated. fight sim liar to the one which has just closed in Alabama Is now waging in the states of North Carolina, Virginia, Kentucky, Georgia and Tennessee.
 The Alabama case was first argued in February of this year when the Southern railroad, speaking for the other railroads of the state, appeared before the commission with the prayer that the stove manufacturers be required to crate the stoves. The case was argued at length, pro and con, but owing to the vast amount of briefs in the case the commission could not arrive at an official order until today.

 FOR HELP GIVEN
Says Anti Tube cc:.lcsic SO- ciety Feels Renewed
 Strer -.

Sidney J. Bowie. president of the Anti-Tuberculosis association, discus sing the work, said yesterday:
 e.1rhe officers and directors of the nti-Tuberculosis association of this county who have been actively in touch with the matter are deeply grateful to the county board of revenue for it's generous contribution of $400 per month, to date from September 1, for the support of this institution. Follow ing so closely upon the action of the city commissioners of Birmingham in awarding us s4O0 for the month of September, with the promise to do the best possible permanently for the insti- tution on the 17th of this month, we now feel that our work is upon an as
 sured and solid foundation.
 It is our next plan to employ trained nurse at our free dispensary, Room 425 Chamber of Commerce build- ing, whose principal business it shall be to visit the extreme cases in this district, to advise with the families of the sick, and to teach them how and what to do in the way of preparation of foods and making the surroundings sanitary, and in such isolation of the patients as will, so far as possible, tend to prevent the spread of the dis case. When this is followed up, as we expect 1t to be, by the adoption of an ordinance by the city commissioners, which has already been prepared and is now pending before them, providing for the complete Immigration of rooms and buildings infected with the disease and lreauiring the Isolation of patients wher- ever practicable, under the direction of the health authorities of the city, we will have accomplished great forward movement in the work of arresting the chief destroyer of the human race.
 "The city and county authorities have all along manifested the highest appre-
 citation of the importance of our work and the greatest and most abiding sym pathy. While they have not given all that we asked they have given all they felt that they could afford, and too ! much praise cannot be given them for their statesmanship, their wisdom and their generosity in this behalf
 "On behalf of the association I want to say to them, and to the public, that we feel today renewed strength and courage. andsthat, with the proper help and support of this community, we pro- pose and intend to make real headWay In the fight against this disease. Our work Is no longer an experiment, it is assured, and safe, and permanent"

Briefly, the design for the Oakland city hall may be said to consist of a low. wide base, fronting on an entire city block, serving as a platform, from which
 rises large central shaft or tower, which
 is surmounted by a beautiful lantern of masonry, containing clock on its four sides. The base, consisting of the three lower stories above the ground.
 will lbe decorated with dignified modified Corinthian order, which will fully ex- press the classical traditions of the beau- tiful renaissance architecture. This lower part in all respects represents the monu- mental character which such civic building should possess. Its entrance on Washington street will be fianked by large granite Corinthian columns, behind which rests the beautiful screen of bronze and glass. The facades in composition are composed of pilasters between the win dows, projecting very slightly from tho

How Society Woman
 Wards Off Wrinkles

"Wrinkles are not strangers to me but when | acquire such disfigure. ments I know how to lose them in a hurry" A well known society matron confided this to me. I had wondered low she, with her strenuous social duties and late hours, could so com pletely ward off the usual marks ot Care and dissipation.
 q don't wear wrinkles in public nor those horrid rings beneaths the eyes., she continued since I've learn Cd what plain. ordinary saxolite will do. When any of those hateful marks appear, send to the drug store Tor an ounce of powdered saXolite and a half pint of witch hazel. I mix the two, bathe my face in the solution and that's the whole secret. I've never tried anything that works so mirac- ulously. My chin is inclined to double; this trouble, too, I keep in check in the same way."-Emily Dean in Town Talk

walls. The window openings will be trimmed with ornately designed architec- tural terra cotta, forming exquisite trim mings for the beautiful white California granite and the deep colors transmitted from the glass.
 The shaft or tower which represents the office feature of the structure shows its own individual character.
 The interior of the building will be a marvel of grandeur and beauty. The visitor enters the building by the three low granite steps from the sidewalk on Washington street and finds himself in a vaulted vestibule 60 feet in height. From this point he can look directly into the central dome, 60 feet in diameter, the crown of which is 125 feet away and SC feet above the floor of the vestibule. Ele- vators on either side of the grand stair way, which is directly before him, give access to all floors of the building.

Can't Cure Catarrh
Stomach Dosing, Sprays and
 Douches Have All Failed

There Is only one way to cure catarrh Reach the raw, tender, inflamed mem brane that is infested with catarrh germs, and destroy the germs.
 You can't reach the hooks and crev- ices with liquid preparations-there is only one way-breathe the antiseptio germ killing air of HYOMEI (pro- nounce it Migh-o-me) directly over the infested parts.
 HYOMEI contains no opium, cocaine or other harmful drugs, it Is made of Australian eucalyptus, thymol and other Historian antiseptics. It is guar anteed to end the misery of catarrh, asthma, croup and bronchitis, or money back.
 Ask Nortons drug store about the HYOMEI outfit today. It sells 1t for only $1.00 and guarantees it.

COnstrue Laws Meaning

 We think the language is clear and not susceptible of two constructions. If the legislature had intended to do as it did in the case of street railways, it would | not have used the word "lines." but in lieu thereof company" or some other l word so as to embrace the system in its entirety.
 | to make supervision general, over tele- phone and telegraph companies, void the | commissions control over lines operating | between localities? Exchanges are easily operated separately and apart from what l is termed the "toll business" There is not that mixing and mingling of operat- | ing expense and maintenance that per | tsins to street railways, or other such in- stitutions, but each unit of the telephone is operated on it's own merits, and ac- counts are kept separate as though they were owned and controlled by separate interests.
 We fail to see how the rates to local subscribers of an exchange necessarily effect the service and rates between To- calities.,
 With that view of the business the gen. eral public can become interested in the local exchange rates, for it is obvious that it would be wrong for the rates to be so low in some localities as to place a burden upon others in the way of higher toll rates between locations. to make up for losses locally, and the reverse of this proposition would be equally true. We do not think, however, that the leg islature was anticipating such conditions,
 but was controlled with the idea that it should interfere with local affairs only to
 the extent of protecting the outside pub He.
 The commission has heretofore taken
 this view of it's jurisdiction in regard to
 the telephone interests, and had assumed
 control and supervision only of what is
 known as the toll. or long distance ser-
 vice.
 The commission is thoroughly convinced
 that it would have no authority to en-
 force any order it may enter in reference
 to rates to subscribers for telephones of
 a local exchange. and. therefore. the peti-
 tion is dismissed for Jack of iurisdic-
 tions
The Birmingham age-herald., 1911-10-03

to neighboring communities. The local exchange places all sections of the city which it serves In speaking distance, and at the sanie time is the medium through which the distant locality is en- abled to have quick and efficient service with them at small expense. These ex- changes are necessarily monopoistic, be- cause, competition of two or more of them in the same community does not produce the usual results of competition. but tends to increase the expense of the service to a large number of their patrons. Under such conditions, there is no doubt but that there should be some authority other than the local gov ernment to pass upon their service and rates. so as to remove from them any direct or pecuniary interest in the per sonnel of the administration of the To- cality in which they operate. It is not for the commission, however, to say what should have been done, but to ascertain what was really the intent of the legislation in this particular case
