Except for some heavy rails that are

was pu: down temporarily, the River

practically completed today. WorkInen
began Tuesday 10 put in the permanent
curve connecting the Fourth avenue
line with the Main street line, and oy
this evening this work was finished.
excepting the resurfacing OF the street
NJ the intersection and between the
rails.
The rails used in the curve are the
heaviest that has been put down in any
OF the new work done by the Iowa
Railway and Light Company. They
are OF eishty-.ive pound steel, and
heavy enough to carry transconttnental
trains.
Shows Up Faulty Grade.
The laying OF the street car track on
North Fourth avenue. shows TO what
extent the grade Of the East Main
street. paving and also the asphalt paw
ang on North Fourth avenue IS faulty.
rWhen the pavement Of the Intersection
from Main street into North Fourth
avenue IL relaid by the public utilities
company, the curve will have 20 be laid
at Q grade that slopes sharply away
s1rom the inside Of the curve.
This peculiar condition IS due TO the
Gxade established when the East Main
street paving was laid. Levels run by
.fhe street car company show that the
.curbing at the northwest corner OF
Matn street and Fourth avenue is If
tech inches lower than the curb across
TouSfh avenue east The Fourth avenue
pavement was laid TO conform to this
nade, which had already been estao-
Nshed when the avenue was paved. The
result Is that the east side Of the
Fourth avenue pavement IS very much
lower than the west side.
This defect did not show 90 plainly
until the street car track was laid on
= level down the middle Of the avenue,
and at the curve because the outer rail
Df curve had 70 be set higher than the
inner rail. there Will DO sharp slope
from the outer rail TO the east curb
at the intersection. Because Of the
slope automobile owners will have 10
use care In turning the corner, when
coming from the west on Main street.
because the sope Of the pavement will
have a tendency to cause tires to skid.
Fifteen n-Minute Service Friday.
Beginning at l o'clock on the after
noon of July 4, fifteen minute ser
vice will be maintained on the park
line Cars will leave tho corner OF
Third avenue and Main on the even
hour and every fifteen minutes between
hours. During the forenoon and up to

on the usual half hour service.

only very short stitches show on the

This is very effective with the French
knots in Delft blue or pretty green.
II the pattern has extra lines like

RINGWoRM ON CHILD'S FACE

Stratford, Iowa.-"Three years ago
this winter my seven-year-old son had
ringworm on the face. First it was in
small red spots which had a rough
crust on the top. WheE they started
they looked like little red dots and
then they got bigger. about the size
Of q birds egg. They had a white
rough ring around them, and grew
continually worse and soon spread
over his face and legs. The child suf-
fered terrible itching and burning, 80
that he could not sleep nights. He
scratched them and they looked fear
full. He was cross when he had them.
We used several bottles Of liniment,
but nothing helped.

Make your own hatbox OF paste
board and cover It with wall paper or
cretonne. Hinge the sides to the bot
tom OF the box with baby ribbon run
through eyelets. Make the top to
hinge to one Of the sides. This can
be folded and carried in a trunk. and
is more convenient than a regular hat

For travelling on the train make a
gray summer silk bag to cover the hat
when placed on the car rack. silk

Just think for a moment what can

are long.sleeved and shortsleeved

silk or made OF several layers OF
white and colored net. there are pet

And this is not all
There are small hats and large hats
OF black. white and colored tulle;
there are Medici collars and Robes

net that is sprinkled with figures.
There are net neck rufus, there are
