Gently published test of the compara-
tive costs of delivery operation show
the diminished cost of operation to be
secured by electric over that Of horse
power. According to the test of a
1900 pound load the cost per ton-mile
was ass cents fo- horse power and .276
cents for electric power. In tests OF
two-to and five-ton loads the differ
ence was much greater. the cost ii
electric power being little more than
half that of horse power. The speed
is greater and the cost Of stabling
less.
One Of the matters to which cleo
trical workers have been giving much
attention during the past few years
has been the provision of greater pre-
cautions for the safety of the men
working with electrical apparatus.
Special shields are now supplied which
protect the linemen from shock in any

point of view, their use IL becoming

The utilization of electric power Tor
manufacturing purposes is increasing
daily. There are now electrical bak
cries, electrical irrigating plants and
factories of every description which
are operated entirely by electric pow
err. The utilization Of a single electri-
cal plant for the three purposes oi
power, heat and light represents an
economy which is each day becoming
better understood. One Of the fea-
lures Of the electrical shows of the
season is the reproduction Of sew

A RemarkabIe and Convincing State
ment of the Success of Cuticura

ment of the Pain, Itching and
Burning of Eczema.

2234 Hebert ST.. ST. Louis, Mo. - I, the

al least a year for eczema on my foot. When
a young girl sprained my ankle three differ

when i've years ago a small spot showed upon
my left ankle. doctor said il was eczema.
He drew a small bone from the ankle about
the size OF a match and about an inch long.
The small hole grew to about the size OF an
apple, and the eczema spread TO the knee.
The whole foot ran water all the time.
My husband and my sons were up night
and day wheeling me from one room to an
other in the hope Of giving rae some relief. I
would sit for hours at time in front OF the
fireplace hoping for daybreak. The pain was
so intense was almost crazy, IN fact, would
lose my reason for hours at time. One day
a friend OF mine dropped in to see me. No
more had she glanced at my foot than she ex-
claimed, Mrs. Finnegan, why in the world
don't you try the Cuticura Remedies
Not being able TO sleep at all, decided TO
give the Cuticurs Soap and Cuticura ONT
ment trial. After using them three days that
night slept as sound as silver dollar for
eight long hours. awoke in the morning with
but very little pain. in fact, I thought was IN

ments promptly and the Home Build
ers have never yet had to foreclose
on a property.
\ yearly banquet was inaugurated
last year. at the suggestion of Mr..
+. H. Greene. of. the Greene and
Griffin real estate and investment
company. who are fiscal agents for
the Home Builders association. In
1911, 80 people sat down at the ban
quet board. This year 50 stockhold-
ers of the company filled the smaller
dining room Of the Hotel Adams full
almost to overlooking.
J. +. Cleaveland acted as toastmas-
ter and in his Introduction of the
speakers, said he had discarded the
list of orators that was prepared for
the occasion, but is was evident that
he was sufficiently well acquainted
with the abilities Of those present. to
know on whom 10 call. \ number of
short talks were made that abounded
in a spontaniety that was more eff
fective than studied effort.
After "A few words from r. II.
Greene. Lysander Cassidy was called
TO speak upon the subject of the
Home Builders from the standpoint
OF a lawyer. a farmer and a stock
holder. His response was that he had
Eothing 10 do with the organization
Of the company. nothing To do with
its management of the company but
believed there was no organization in
the city doing more To build up the
salt River valley.
Mr.. Cassidy said he thought the
company was not only an erector of
houses but in the truest sense, u
builder of homes and was doing a
great work in helping to establish
families permanently; these people
being anchored here would have
real interest in the place and would
make better citizens than if they were
just temporary residents.

upon as "A minister. a lawyer and Il
