 William 5 Hyde and Harry NJ Burke who conducted the hearing for the Manchester people had asked that the Connecticut Company produce books. papers and other data to show the business done on the lines of the company between this city and Man chester Benjamin l. Spock. lawyer for the company, had claimed that 1t would take experts many months to prepare this information and that 1t was unfair to the company, because the Manchester lines were q part of the whole system of the company and there were so many things that had to be charged up against the operating expenses of the lines Chat it was ditti- cult problem to proportion these so as to be of any avail to the commission. He said that part of his salary of the manager of the lines in Hartford was chargeable to the Manchester opera ton, and that part of the salary ot the general manager in New Haven Was chareeable m the same Way He contended that the oniS figures that would be available or of benefit were

girl who was growing out of her clothes determined to thin down. by active exercise Her doctor told her nothing was so thinning and hip. re- dreing as to bend frequently from the waist line.
 Gymnastics and indoor physical ex- ercise were hateful to her. but she struggled hard with them until one day, watching her small sister play with rubber ball, happy idea struck her. Thereafter she started twice day for d long tramp in the country, taking with her pocketful oa discard ed golf balls
 At two minute intervals she threw tue bafl as far as it would se. ran to find if and, when it was reached, stopped to pick it up without bending her knees. She roSe very erect. Hfeng her arms above her head as far as they would stretch then resumed her ordi- nary brisk walk until the ball was thrown again
 She found her nove, thinning exer- else full of spice, much more fun than commonplace bending. and the open air life improved her health and com plexion, while the stopping was bring ing down her figure
 Another girl thinned herself by stooping frequently to pick pebbles fgom stony beach. She learned lot about shells and sand deuizens while eultyatins slimness.
 IA both these methods the effect would be lost f stooping were not done from the waist with unbent knees. It k more beneficial to inhale deep breaths and keep the lungs inflated when bending.
