Chattanooga, June 23.-General con-

Southwest for the week ending We'd

ties have not been overestimated and
that the production will fully come up

this condition the organizing and es-

flee building is in operation, BY the
present system by hand or track
at least five minutes is required to
get a book or books from one build
ing to the other
If the tube system proves a sue
cess it is likely it will mark the be
ginning of system operating between
the group of capitol buildings, the cap
itol and government printing office
and the new postoffice and the union
station. Many minutes will be saved
in the delivery of each package be-
tween each of these places.
/ Uncle Sam is getting a bargain in
the purchase of the tube" system
between the house wing of the CAPT
tol and the house office building. A
few months ago the manufacturers
of this new system offered to install
it at the capitol for the purposes of
demonstration. Elliot Woods, SUI
perintendent of the capitol build
ings and grounds, had heard of sim.
liar propositions before. After the
apparatus had been installed and
proved successful the manufacturers
came forward with a claim to be prop
erly recompensed and they got their
claims paid
Superintendent Woods didn't care
to have a repetition. So he offered
to pay the manufacturers 81 900 fo,
the apparatus, installed and in work
ing order. The equipment, it is esti
mated will cost the manufacturers he
tween $4,000 and $4,000 in addition
to the cost of installation. Superin

Rest At Evening.

The day is long and trying, and
heavy is the heat; and often | am
signing, while dragging weary feet.
The sun is burning DER me; there is
no grateful shade; the rows stretch
out before me, that | must hoe and
spade. But when the sun has wended
his pathway to the west, my weary toll
is ended, and evening brings me rest.
Then comes the kind word spoken by
loved ones at the door; then comes
the sleep unbroken, until the night is
DER; then comes the tuneful passage
of restful twilight hours; then comes
the mystic message of winds among
the flowers. The day may treat me
meanly, and rob my life of zest; but
evening comes serenely, and evening
brings me rest. And life is but a
longer and sadder summer day; the
weary heat is stronger, and rocker
the way; the watchword is EN-
deavor," and till the day is done the
laborer may never escape the glar-
ing sun. And thus the harsh world
grinds him against its rugged breast,
till starlit evening finds him and eve
ming brings him rest.-Walt Mason.

man that Taft needed, and he is ex'
pected to be big factor in the 1912
campaign.
Hilles is a man who doesn't make
mistakes President Taft knows that
he doesn't. For this reason the presl-
dent defers more to Mr.. Hilles' judg-
ment, and the result is that all ques-
tions pertaining to patronage and poll
tics are being expedited these days at
the White House. The Republican
senators and representatives are dis
covering that they can get action i'll Il
reasonable length of time and that the
action when 1t comes is reasonably
certain to be diplomatic and effective
good politics, In other words.
They are also assured that when
they go to the White House to talk
matters over they will pour their trou-
bles into sympathetic ears. Mr.. Hilles
is one Of the best listeners that Wash
ington has ever known. Hilles re-
ceives his callers as If he had nothing
to do for week save listen to the
tale Of each individual, and when they
leave him they go away soothed and
encouraged to believe that they will
either get what they want or that
everything will go to pot if they don't

of airmen.

The eternal servant problem seems
to be nearing solution in Berlin, and
it is very simple one, namely the
substitution of men for women. Of
recent years a vast increase in the
immigration from the country to the
city has taken place, with the result
that a capable man servant can now
be hired for between So and $40 a
month with board. The new servant
is said to be infinitely superior to the
old, besides lending a social glory to
the household, as hitherto men ser.
wants have been employed almost
solely by noble and aristocratic OF
very wealthy families. Experience
shows that they can do as we'll oil

Fashions are more revolutionary
this year than they have been for
many seasons. The really small hat
is now an accomplished fact, women
are becoming accustomed to the
widened skirt and the crinoline sleeve
is accepted as a pretty novelty; but
the new hairdressing is considered the
last straw. 1t is being shown by fash
ionable London hair dressers, but as
yet few women have ventured to wear
it in public. The hair is drawn straight
back from the forehead and sides and
finished in little coil at the back.
All such frivoloties as curls, puffs or
even waves are banished, the hair be
ing drawn quite smooth and fiat. 1t
has very curious effect after the full
coiffures, and it is not in the least
likely that it will become popular, as
few women possess the beautiful fore
head and features 1t requires.
