be Just thirteen feet higher than Its
nearest rival, the Singer building. The
location Of the new structure, which is
to be known as the WoOlworth build
ing, is the southwest corner of Broad
way and Park place. The ground upon
which il will stand was acquired at a
cost of S2,OOO,0OO. and it is estimated
that the building itself will cost ap-
proximately Sj.000.0OO.
Like many of the more modern sky
scrapers in New York, the Woolworth
building will seek to apply old recog-
nized forms of architecture to new con-
ditions. The architect has discarded
the familiar renaissance type and will
treat the facade in Gothic. He be-
lieyes he has worked out a design that
will stand as an example OF the archi-
tectural possibilities in lofty steel con-
struction. In order to support the ire
mendous weight OF forty-tve stories it
will be necessary to carry the founda-
tions down to bedrock. a depth of prob
ably 100 feet below the street.
Among other things. the plan calls
for a large swimming pool in the base
ment, and it is likely that there will
also be gymnasium.

Honest Medicines versus Fakes

President Taft's recent message
suggesting an amendment to the
Pure Food and Drug law in its re-
lation to prepared medicines, does
not refer to such standard medicines
as Foley's Honey and Tar Com
pound and Foley Kidney Pills, both
of which are true medicines care
fully compounded of ingredients
whose medicinal qualities are re-
cognized by the medical profession
itself as the best known remedial
agents for the diseases they are
intended to counterfeit. For over
three decades Foley's Honey and
Tar Compound has been a standard
remedy for coughs, colds and af-
fections of the throat, chest and
lungs for children and for grown
persons, and it retains today its
above all other pre-
parations of its kind. Foley Kid
ney Pills are equally effective and
meritorious. B. B. Davis.

TOO MUCH EVEN FOR EDISON
Great Inventor Could Not Make His
New Storage Battery Absolutely
FooI-Proof.

In order TO make his storage battery
absolutely fool-proof Thomas Edison
devised a machine for abusing the bat
terry in every known way, but although
he Is one of our most brilliant inyen-
tors, Mr. Edison had to admit that
when It came to inventing methods OF
abusing electrical apparatus, he could
not compete with the fool" operator.
Try as he would TO forestall every
conceivable method of injuring the ap-
paratus, some stupid man would devise
new and unthought-of method for
putting 1t out of business
In this connection, says the Scienti-
fic American, 1t is interesting to note
that a discussion on fool-proof devices
was held before the West OF Scotland
branch Of the Association OF Mining
Electrical Engineers. One of the speak
ers argued that 1t was unnecessary TO
attempt to make apparatus entirely
fool-proof, and that 1t was bad prac-
tfce to surround electrical gear with
devices and safeguards which would
interfere with the action OF the trained
engineer. Another speaker pointed to
the fact that there are not as many
folio operators as one would imagine;
that the so-called fool is an ignorant
man, and that It would be better to
educate him than to prevent him from
doing injury to himself or TO machin-
cry by means OF safeguards. while
permitting him to remain ignorant

Mrs. Gntes Is a daughter OF Mrs. Kate
Wheaton N-rtin of ST. Louis and was

Charles Gilbert Gates arrived in New

should expect
! Our duty to our Maker. TO each 9th

Thus Justice. properly speaking, is the

origin in IL.
Justice is not absolutely inexorable;
/ 1t tempers its severity with kindness
and mercy and aims at a medium
course which brings about the greatest
good. Mercy involves forgiveness.
Charity is an aspect OF justice. Being
just is equivalent to not hindering the
advancement OF our fellow men. Be-
ing charitable is equivalent to assist
ing In that advance.
There is what might be called an in
tellectual charity which consists In
opening the eyes of the mentally blind.
But the nobIest OF all charities Is in
coming to the aid of those in the deep
slough OF moral dependency and in
raising the sinful and the fallen.

MAIL SERVICE ON
 NEW FAST TRAINS
l.. & N. and Coast Line Are Also Ar
 ranging to Make Connections at Montgomery

It was officially announced yesterday that effective with train No. on the Louisville and Nashville railroad tomor- row morning, southbound. railway postal service will be inaugurated, while the same service will be placed on train No. &, northbound, the following day.
 The train known as No. 2 leaves here at 4:o5 o'clock in the morning while the other, No. 8, leaves for the north at 12:05 o'clock D. m.
 The postal service will add greatly to the popularity of the trains. as 1t will enable the towns north and south of this city to receive their regular mail much earlier.
 The announcement was also made yes terday that the Atlantic Coast Line which controls the Louisville and Nashville, would arrange connections for Savannah and Jacksonville at Montgomery at no far distant date. It was given out that the company intended to have the sched- ule arranged for the beginning of this year but the holiday trade interfered with the plan It is said the traffic ar rangements will be made for the begin ming of February or a short time there after.

TAKE NO ACTION ON
 HANSON SUCCESSOR
McCOmack Says Matter Did Not Come Up Directly or Indirectly at
 Directors Meeting

After attending a meeting of Central of Georgia railroad directors in Savan- nah Monday, George B. Mccormack, a director, returned home yesterday.
 He said that he did not have anything to say as to the failure of the Central of Georgia directors to elect president to succeed Major Hanson, deceased, and that during the meeting the subject of a successor was not hinted or talked about, either directly or indirectly.
 It is generally understood that no suc- cessor to Major Hanson will be elected for some time yet. If one is elected the directors will have to be called together for a special meeting as no scheduled meeting is to be held for three months.
 It was given out yesterday that the affairs of the Central are in pretty fair shape without any president and that at this time there Is no need of electing one. Maj. Alex Lawton, according to the port is acting as financial. legal and accounting executive, while W. A. Win burn is in charge of traffic and trans portation. The two executives are secur- ing fine results and nothing is now on foot to elect anyone to the presidency.
 It is considered probable now that Judge Lovett, who will be the one to name president for the Central. will se- riously consider allowing one of the pres- ent vice presidents go to the head of the company.
 The Ocean Steamship company, which is also owned by the Hartman interests, is without a president and will be in such shape for some time. according to all reports.
