But Now Her Face is the Fairest of
the Fair, Due to Stuart's
Calcium Waters.

Those dimples are like pearls in
ruby cluster when Stuarts Calcium
Waters clear the face of every PIN
pie, spot and blemish. And even u
you haven't dimples, the clear, trans
parent skin or a healthy, Calcium Wa
fer complexion is more radiant than
the deft touch of an artist to the most
exquisite water color.
Stuarts Calcium Waters act direct
ly upon the sweat glands of the skin,
since their mission is to stimulate
the eXcretory ducts. They do not
create perspiration. but cause the
skin to breathe out vigorously, thus
Transforming perspiration into a gas
eous vapor. The calcium sulphide
of which these waters are composed
consumes the germ poisons in the
sweat glands and PORES, hence the
blood makes new, smooth skin IN
a surprisingly short time.
You will never be ashamed to look
at yourself in mirror, once you use
Stuart's Calcium Waters. Nor will
your friends give you that limiting
look, as much as to say-for goodness
sake, get rid of those pimples.
There is no longer any excuse for
anyone to have face disfigured with
skin eruptions, when it is SO easy to
get rid of them. Simply get box
of Stuart's Calcium Waters at any
drug store and take them according
to directions. After a few days you
will hardly recognize yourself in the
mirror. The change will delight you
immensely. All blemishes will dis

APPEALS TO HOUSE
Committee Makes Fervent
Plea for the District.
IN NEED OF LEGISLATION
Chamber of Commerce Calls Atten.
tion to Mass of Important
Matters Pending. I

An appeal in the interests Of legif.
lation for the District of Columbia was
sent to every member of the House
from the Washington Chamber of Com
merce today. This appeal was framed
by the committee on law and legisla-
ton of the chamber. headed by \.
Leftwich Sinclair
The Senate has passed number OF
bills Of Importance to the citizens OF
the District. including the public utili-
ties commission bill, a universal trans
fer bill, the Jones-Works excise bill
and others. These measures have all
been put sQuarely up to the House. and
so far none of them has been reported
out Of the House District committee.
Text of the Appeal.
The appeal to the members of the
House is couched in the following
terms:

merce begs leave TO call attention to

seems to have been frequently impos.
sible during the present session to se-
cure quorums Of the committee on the
Representatives, and as a result very
few of the many important pending
bills affecting the National Capital
have been acted upon or even consid-
cred.
District Is Helpless.
1.-The people Of the District are with
out representation in Congress. They
can neither initiate nor directly urge
needed legislation. II members OF
Congress neglect their duties. the peo-
pie Of the District are remediless. They
have only the right OF petition In the
exercise OF this right the Chamber OF
Commerce appeals to the patriotism.
pride and sense of fairness Of the
members of Congress-.

to you for help and earnestly asks
that you exert your influences TO bring
about action on the important bills

the average express charge Is % cents,
and the average haul is 200 miles.
Commissioner Lane carried his investi-
cations into the express business of sew
eral European countries. In those coun-
tries where the parcels post system has
developed traffic in small packages, the
lighter weight packages were found to
predominate. 1t was indicated that In
foreign countries the householder re-
ceived few parcels weighing more than
ten pounds per shipment The commits
sion believes that in the United States the
express traffic in food commodities ID
chiefly between the producer and the
commission merchant. and that the rates
appear to have been constructed with
view to fostering and encouraging the
growth Of that traffic at the expense OF
the light package traffic.
By Quickest Lines.
OF foremost importance Is the require
ment that all OF the express companies
shall join in the establishment OF through
routes by the quickest lines Of communi-
cation between all express officers and
shall publish through rates to apply be-
tween those points The same provision
gives the shipper the right to name the
route by which his property snail De
carried. 1t is believed by Commissioners
Lane that these provisions will effect an
Improvement
economy to the carriers. which now haul
shipments oftentimes by circuitous routes
to avoid turning them over to con-
Meeting line.
The most radical departure from ex-
listing methods lies in that adopted OF
applying the new rates.
In the United States there are $1,000
express stations. To name rates from
each of these to every other one REQUIRES
the statement of more than 6OOOOo'OOO
Ill., c~h4 "a M -
upy several hundred volumes Of from 200
to 300 pages each in the tariff depart
ment of the commission. The rates them
selves are intricate and involved. and 1t
REQUIRES expert authority to determine
the lawful rate between any two points.
The problem OF reducing this enormous
volume OF rate schedules to a genuinely
practica able compass is one to which Com
missioner Lane devoted most serious at
tention. He has evolved q method where
States to all other points may be printed
on a single sheet or card about one
fourth of the size Of single newspaper
page.
Division Into Blocks.
The first step in the consummation Of
the plan was the division of the United
States into blocks. each approximately
fifty miles square. Rates are proposed
between each Of these blocks. treating all
cities and towns within each block as
common points. To every express station
within each of these blocks the rate IL
the same from any other given block.
Thus the rate is stated as between blocks
rather than as between cities. Supple
menting this block system Of making
rates. which constitutes each block a
zone OF origin or of destination, the rates
are stated for each package Weighing
from / to 100 pounds. The express COM
panies will be required to publish Q direc-
tory OF express stations. which will show
the block number within which each sta
ton is located. and at each station there

Commissions Conclusions.

Il. That express rates should
De made primarily to meet the
need of the great body of our
people and should, therefore, be
stated in terms that represent
the small packages which the
express company is intended to
carry. rather than by the 100
pounds. as freight rates are
stated
"2. That in the fixing of its
rates an express company should
not De allowed to charge more
than a railroad company IL the
latter undertook to, and did, give
the same service
3. That it is proper for the
government to treat the express
company as a freight forwarder
by passenger train, giving sup
Elemental service at each termi-
nal. and intermediate care.
a. That an express rate may
not be based upon the monopoly
right of the express company to
be the exclusive freight for
warder over one or more lines of
railroad.
IS. That the rate should not
include more than a reasonable
compensation for the service
given. even though such COM
pensation falls below that which
the railroad exacts as mini
mum for the carriage of 100
pounds of freight
"6. That 1t is unreasonable to
fix as rapid a decline in express
rates for long distances as is
made by the railroads in their
freight rates. express service in
this respect being more anal
ogous to passenger than to
freight service.
Y. That in compounding the
express rate the railroad should
be allowed compensation for
bulked freight moved upon a
passenger train as to which 1t is
relieved by contract from all liza
bility for loss or damage, and is
without expense for the furnish
ing of a receipt, the billing, the
bookkeeping, and a great num-
ber of other general expenses.
"8 That the rate should in
clude a return to the express
company which will compensate
it with profit for the expense of
the service which 1T gives. there
being added thereto in the for
matter of the total rate the proper
charge which 1t may reasonably
make for the service which the
railroad gives. as stated in the
preceding paragraph"
