What a comfort TO the nation

On an up to date and scientific line,
When a purchaser is able
Just by looking at the label
The spurious to distinguish from the incl
Yet the decorative posters
OF the histrionic boasters,
With adjectives all fervidly aglow.
Must remind us on occasion
AS we yield to their persuasion
That the label doesn't guarantee the show.
And the foliage narcotic
That exerts a sway despotic
Ger so many as in smoke IL drifts away
Is so splendidly embellished
That at sight II must be relished
For the beauty OF the bands and boxes gay

It Is a mystery to many how the
iron balls inside Of sleighbells get
there. In making sleighbells the iron
ball Is put inside a sand core just the
shape OF the inside Of the bell. Then
a mold Is made exactly the shape Of
the outside Of the bell. The sand core
with the jlnglet inside. Is placed ln
the mold Of the outside. and the melt
ed metal Is poured In. which tills the
space between the core and mold.

EMPLOYE IMPROVING
New York, May 9.-Judge Rob

now being investigated by con-
gress because of various peculiar
deals he made with railroads
(which were defendants in his
court, stalked grandly into the
governments suit for the disco,
luton of the Steel Trust.
George A. Craghin, assistant
general sales manager Of the

Jacob M. Dickinson, attorney
for the government, still was fill

details yef the burning up of the

the trust BY Harry Whitney.
CTagin said all the evidence of
the government against the trust
was turned back to him, after the
governments first use of the evil
denee.
Dickinson desired to know just
when, where and how the evil
dence was turned back to Cragin.
lCragin explained that it was
turned back to him Just after

evidence was returned to him by

RAILROADS TO
REFUND MONEY
Corporation Commission to Cut s4oo,-
900 Railroad melon" For the
Public.

As the result of an agreement be-
tween Chairman Love and Commits.
sioner Henshaw on behalf of the Okla
homa corporation commission and the
presidents Of the railroads operating in
Oklahoma, reached in ST. Louis on
Monday Of this week. the corporation
commission will soon make distribu-
|tion of four hundred thousand dollars
to Oklahoma freight shippers. This
money is the fund that has been ac-
formulated in freight collections in ex-
cess OF the commission scale of rates,
while the railroad appeal from the COM
mission orders has been pending in
the supreme court. The railroads have
decided to drop the fight and put the
commission rates into effect All per-
sons or concerns who have paid freight
ion carload shipments between points
within the state of Oklahoma during
the last year, or since the rate orders
We're appealed, should get their paid
expense bills together and be ready to
show a claim for their part of this fund.
The railroads will pay the excess
charges to the commission in a lump
lsum and the commission will make the
refunds to the shippers.
The two cent passenger fare case is
Istill pending.
The victory thus secured means, in
addition to this big refund, saving to
the shippers of the state Of at least
| $4,000 per year, the amount increas-
ling in proportion to the volume Of
traffic done Every town in the state,
and nearly every business concern, will
share in this division Of the fruit Of
the commissions efforts

MISSOURI PACIFIC
TURN HOSPITAL
TO EMPLOYEES

Saint Louis, Mo, October 23.-The
Missouri Pacific-Iron Mountain has
completed the formal transfer of it's
hospital funds and property to its EN-
ployes and officials, who have contrib
uted small sums out of their salaries
each month toward the support of the
hospital service. The cash turned over
to the men by the company amounts
to nearly 100000, the exact sum being
$193,767.73. III addition, the railroad
transferred to the men all its hospital
real estate and the furnishings and
equipment of the buildings, including
the large hospital building in st. Louis
and surrounding grounds, S00x274.64
feet. The value of cash, real estate and
furnishings all told approximates a
quarter of a million dollars, after al
lowing for depreciation in the value of
the st. Louis building, erected a num-
ber of years ago.
The Missouri Paciiiclron Mountain
started its hospital service about thirty
years ago, and the cash and property
now on hand have been accumulated
in that time by careful and judicious
handling. Probably 80 per cent Of the
holdings are the result of small con-
tributions received monthly out OF
wages of employees now either dead or
out of the company's service. 1t being
an impossibility to return the prop.
erty and cash to the original contribu.
tors. the claim was raised that the
railroad was entitled to retain them,
as the surplus was due to its careful
management; and that the present en-
ployes had no right to the funds. Presi-
dent b e. Bush, however. took the
stand that the money was paid in for
hospital purposes and THAT the entire
fund, real estate, buildings and all
other property, should be turned over
to the present employees for such pur
poses. Through his efforts, resolu-
ton authorizing this disposition was
passed at meeting of the board Of di
rector in New York, and the transfer
was completed at the first meeting OF
the recently elected employees board OF
hospital service managers, Just held.
