soon as I can work out the de.
tails to present to the delega
ton for consideration. 1t is
clearly evident that the present
system Of road working is not
good, in fact, in many instances,
! it is a waste of time, but if those
who are liable be made to pay
the money, and the work is con-
tracted for to responsible parties
better results will be obtained.
The most important and far
reaching measure thus far con-
sidered by the senate was the
McLaurin warehouse bill, some
politicians oppose it, but the
farmers organization, especially
the Farmers Union, strongly
favor it and has memorlalized
the general assembly to adopt
| it and enact it into law. l hear
some say they are opposed to it
because it enamates from Nc
lLaurin, that "if this measure
becomes a law, Mr.. McLaurin
will come back into politics..
OF course: thinking men who are
lanxlous to do something which
will help the masses do not take

Mr.. McLaurin is personally con-

NEW TELEPHONE DEVICE.
Cincinnati Woman Has invented De-
cided Improvement On Pres
ent instrument.

A woman inventor in Cincinnati,
Mrs. Katherine Nichols, has designed
an improvement on the present tele-
phone instrument, which she de-
clares will be boon. There are sew
eral disadvantages in the present
equipment" Mrs. Nichols said. "One
has to hold several pounds OF brass
and rubber while using the hone,
when it could just as we'll be a simple
contrivance, weighing only a few
ounces" Mrs. Nichols invention is a
combination of a pair of flexible
tubes, each carrying an improved ear
piece and connected with T joint,
which hold the transmitter. The
ARRANGEMENT is such that when one
holds the ear piece in position the
transmitter is a few inches from the
lips. This insures talking directly
into the transmitter, whether one
turns the head or not. The trans
mitter is double one, increasing the
volume of sound, and a spring is SO
arranged that the mere picking up
of the instrument throuws the line
into connection and GALES the ex-
change. The use of two ear pieces
excludes outside sounds while one is
listening, and this feature is further
improved by another invention OF
Mrs. Nichols-a cap for the ear pieces
which, it is said, physicians rec
ommend as taking much of the strain
of listening off the delicate mem
brane of the ear.
Mrs. Nichols has shown her inven-
! ton to several telephone experts,
who have spoken in high. praise OF 1t.
