ROADS ENFORCE DISCIPLINE.
Employees Do Not Use Liquor While
on DUTY.

Responses to inquiries sent by the
Railway Age-Gazette to managers of
railroads throughout the country in
dictate that strict discipline is enforced
so far as the drinking of Intoxicating
liquors by engineers and fremen is
concerned. In a summary of the re-
turns the Age-Gazette eliminates the
names of the railroads, but the COM
ments on the subject are regarded as
significant. The following replies re-
ceiveG give a general idea of all the
others:
Road Ave do not draw any very
close lines around our men when off
duty, except in cases where we sus-
pect them of using intoxicants excess
sively. We have methods of obtain
ing this information, which seem to
keep us fairly we'll advised. Very few
of the offenders ordinarily have been
in the service five years or more.
Road B-We take the position with
the men that we do not propose to re-
strict their liberty while they are off
duty; that their time is their own, and
that their conduct shall be within rea
son. We do, however strongly Insist
that they report for duty absolutely
sober and with the proper amount OF
rest. Any man who reports for work
with the signs of intoxicants upon him,
or who INDUCES in the slightest man
ner in intOXicants while on duty, can
not work for this company"

From Forty-Five to Fifty Are Much Benefited
by
Lydia E. PinLham's Vegetable Compound.

The "change of life " is a most
critical period in a woman's ex-
istence, and the anxiety felt by
women as it draws near is not
without reason.
When her system is in de-
ranged condition, she may be
predisposed to apoplexy, or con-
gestion of some organ. At this
time, also, cancers and tunors
are more liable to form and begin
their destructive work.
Such warning symptoms as
sense of suffocation, hot flashes,
headaches, backaches, dread of
impending evil, timidity, sounds
In the ears, palpitation of the
heart, sparks before the eyes,
Irregularities, constipation, vari-
able appetite, weakness and
inquietude, and dizziness, are
promptly needed by intelligent
women who are approaching the
period in life when woman's
great change may be expected.
These symptoms are calls from
nature for help. The nerves are
crying out for assistance and the
cry should be needed in time.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound is prepared to meet
the needs of women's system at
this trying period of her life. It
invigorates and strengthens the
female organism and builds up
the weakened nervous system.
1t has carried many women safely
through this crisis.

EXPENSES GROWING RAPIDLY.
Receipts slower Than Costs According
to Connerce Court.

The report of the interstate com
merce commission for the month Of
May. 1912, bears out the claim of the
railroad companies that their expenses
are growing more rapidly than are
their receipts. The report shows that
the receipts of the railroads Of the
United States for May were s12.47 per
mile greater than those for May, 1911.
and that the expenditures were S2S-05
per mile greater than those of May
last year The increase in expenses is
due to the general advance in the
prices of things the railroad companies
have to buy. including labor The rail-
road companies sought to have their
freight rates advanced to meet the in
creased cost of living" but the inter

Sixty dolls!
That's net so very many, when one
thinks of the big city of London and
the thousands of poor little girls in that
great metropolis who have no one to
whom they can pin their Christmas faith
but the mystic Santa Claus. And, alas.
in times past, even the good old Saint
nicholas has been known to forget that
they were on earth. hungering and thirst
ing for the sight Of doll.
Dressed by Passengers.
. Yes, sixty dolls are very few to satisfy
the longing at Christmastide, but they are
just a glimmering of what is to follow.
They were dressed by the women pas
sengers on one OF the big steamship lines,
and there are destined to be many, many
more, all for the little girls in London's
tenements, those little girls who begin
to hope and pray for their hearts de-
sire from the first moment that the
Christmas spirit is abroad 10 the very
last breath on Christmas Eve. But they
have learned not TO really expect the
dolls to come, because somehow tenement
chimneys are too small, tenement doors
too narrow to open and let the rein
deer in.
But this year II is gong TO be dluerent.
At least, 1t will be for many OF those
eager little girls. Indeed, it began to be
quite different last year. because when
the owner of an English newspaper learn
ed of the sad predicament of those little
tenement jewellers, he went to the man
agement of one of the biggest of all the
steamship lines and induced them TO take
a supply of dolls on all their ships up
TO Christmas time. And when Christ
mas morning dawned, there were 5000
dolls and toys to be distributed among
the children in the clty's slums. This
year it is expected there will be the pref
ty number of 1000

They are just dolls when they go
aboard the steamships, with never a
gown, nor a hat, nor a single wear

the women passengers.
And they are gowned to the queen 5

Third and Last of Series Heard by
Large Audience at

Selden Miller, pianist and vocalist Of
Philadelphia, was heard yesterday after
noon by a goOd-sized audience Of Wash
ingtOn society in the third and last OF
a series of recitals that have been held
at the Playhouse. The afternoon was
devoted to Brahms and Debussy. four
vocal and instrumental numbers by each
composer being given.
The programme of the afternoon was
admirably selected to display the charac-
teristic attitude Of the German and
French races. Brahms, the German, Is
bold and severe. while Debussy, prob
ably the leader OF the present-day French
school, is subtle, delicate. and paints his
sound pictures in neutral tints. Mr..
Miller played both masters with a bold
hess and appreciation that well brought
out their differences.
One OF the most striking features of
the programme was "Golliwog's Cake
walk" by Debussy. 1t begins with a
pleasing riot Of syncopation deLcately
suggestive OF its alleged African origin.
but soon subsidies into soft, beautiful
harmony that Is more suggestive Of
