The use of the automobile has in
creased with great rapidity, and it has
been inevitable that with the In
crease in use there would be an in
crease In the number of accidents.
even though there should be, as
rule, an increase in the care exercised.
Fatalities from horse-drawn vehicles
have so long been a matter Of course
that they have attracted less attention
than fatalities caused by automobiles,
although until recently the number OF
the former has greatly exceeded the
latter. In New York city thus far this
year the fatalities recorded are 1873,
year the deaths caused by wagons
number 1T. Last year, in the same
month, wagons caused the death of
Ill persons, while automobiles kill
ed only 70. 1t will thus be seen that
the fatalities caused by automobiles
IN New York city have increased near
ly 100 per cent, while the number
chargeable to wagons was nearly sta
tionary. These, however, are the fig
ures for densely populated city, and
it is altogether probable that If the
figures could be compiled for the en-
tire country they would show that ac-
cidents to horse-drawn vehicles still
outnumber those to automobiles, as
was ascertained to be the case in Eng
land last year.

plsFIGURINc THE LANDSCAPE

An agricultural paper makes a
strong protest against the too COM

"disfiguring fences, barns and other
buildings, trees, etc, with glaring
signs" There might have been in
cluded In the list of great sprawling
billboards which are to be seen along
railways and highways at frequent in
tervals. says the Louisville Courier
Journal. large amount of pictur-
esque scenery is marred in this way.
Nothing Is sacred to the enterprising
advertiser who is interested in keep
ing his wares before the public eye.
1t requires the consent of the prop
erty owners to disfigure buildings and
beautiful landscapes in this way, but
as some farmers and landowners find
1t to be source Of some small rev.
enue, they are more than willing to
permit the advertiser to work his will
in such matters. But the farmer gets
very little money out Of the transac-
tion, and only succeeds in detracting
from the appearance Of his property.
There are many farmers who do not
realize that there is money value to
them in keeping their farms and build
ings in good order. A good beginning
in that direction is by keeping the
premises clear Of things which are
likely to be distasteful to passersby.

tory, the wages paid. the sanitary con-
ditions, the class of labor and practi-
cally everything else was given Its
full share of attention. Mr.. Riggs and
Mr.. Bastert had been shown through
number OF mills In which the east
ern people were deeply interested, and
they obtained store Of information
that enabled them to answer all
questions satisfactorily. They stated
that the employees, who wer, 80 per
cent female, received An average sal
airy Of $40 a week, although, OF course
the skilled workmen received more !;
that the sanitary conditions were as
good as they were in the average fac
tory, and that the class seemed to be

standard in health, and every other
particular. The factory will be what
is known as 10000 spindle mill and
will manufacture principally, possibly
only, cotton denims, suoh as are used
in the manufacture Of overalls and
such articles OF like material The fac
tory will be equipped with its own
dyeing plant. something that the
eastern mills do not have, and will
turn out the completed material.
The committee stated that it con-
sidered the factory very Desirable
one not only for the industrial value,
but for the advertising and attention
that would be given Quincy by the es-
Establishment Of the mill here. The
two gentlemen who we're here investi-
eating the prospects were very well
pleased and Messrs Riggs and Bas-
teri had number Of interested in
quiries that had been induced by their
compliment to the city.

JUST THE TONIC
FOR PALE GIRLS
A Good Color Means Better Health
and Dr.. Williams Pink Pills
Bring Both.

Girls who study hard or work hard.
who grow pale and thin, who come
home from school or shop too tired to
do anything even in the way Of amuse-
ment-these are the girls who will get
most benefit from course OF treatment
with Dr.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People. No medicine ever offered the
public has been such boon to suffer-
ing women and girls as this tonic
remedy. These pills are not mere
stimInlant, giving temporary relief; they
Duild up the body anew by making
rich, red blood that imparts splendid
health, brightness, cheerfulness, energy
and ambition. o
Dr. Williams Pink Pills begin their
work OF improvement with the first dose.
Ihs trst sign OF Improvement is usually
an increased appetite, the absence Of
distressing symptoms after eating, more
refreshing sleep, better color in face
and lips. These are signs that pure rich
blood is now circulating through the
body and that, with this necessary as
astance, nature is effecting cure.
Mrs. Richard Ahrens, OF Cole Block,
Brainerd, Mimi, says. "Owing to .
rundown condition OF my blood, I CUFF
fered for over two years with debility
and nervousness. My nervous system
was in terrible state. lost flesh and
suffered everything woman could. I
had severe pains through the top ofmy
head and across my temples. When
these spells came on me I would have
to give up and was often confined to
bed for day or 80. After these head
aches would feel weak for days. I
had no appetite whatever.
The doctor did not help ne much.
For time I would feel better under
his treatment and then would be worse
again. Through reading about DR..
Williams Pink Pills was led to give
them trial. I soon felt better and
gained rapidly. / gained in flesh, had
a good color and could eat a hearty
meal. Itale the pills now once in a
while for a tonic and always receive
benefit from them"

Blood" and Plain Talks to Women"

through different sources that the
power company would not be able to
furnish 24-hour service to the city,
at the rate that they had quoted ear
her In the year. The matter was in
vestigated and 1t was discovered that
this was the case and that the Cham
Der had been laboring under a mis-
apprehension. Negotiations were then
on with a large concern and the
Chamber of Commerce had already
quoted them rate for 24-hour service
on a secondary basis, or, until the
time that the total capacity of the
dam was contracted for, when the
rate would be put on primary basis.
When this was discovered, the Cham
Der had already quoted a rate to sew
eral prospective industries, but 1t was
thought best to stop such negotia-
lions until the Chamber discovered
just where It stood Since that time
no rates have been quoted or have
any transactions been made, but the
Chamber has occupied the time IN
trying to get definite rate sheet or
at least some understanding. Up un-
til last evening, however, when the
committee made the cheering report
Of the trip east, the matter has been
unsettled.
Mr.. Cooper, the engineer who is
building the dam, made the first
statements to the local body as to the
rates and 1t is with him that the ne

However, Mr.. Cooper seemed disin-
cltned to make any definite agreement
or even a tentative statement and
the Chamber has been unsuccessful
In obtaining any satisfactory infortna-
ton. Although he made the mislead-
