Avoid Sedative Cough Medicines.

Avoid Sedative Cough Medicines.
If you want to contribute directly
to the occurrence of capillary bron-
chitis and pneumonia use cough med
icines that contain iodine, morphine,
heroin and other sedatives when you
have cough or cold. An expector-
ant like Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy is what is needed. That cleans
out the culture beds or breeding
places for the germs Of pneumonia
and other germ diseases. That is
why pneumonia never results from
cold when Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is useds It has a world
wide reputation for it's cures. 1t

grave situation in Ulster. Colonel
John seeley, secretary Of state for war,
and Winston Churchill, first lord OF
the admiralty, conferred at the war
offie.
After the conference a statement
was issued confirming the report OF
the resignation of some army officers
serving in Ireland and stating that
these cases will be dealt with in due
and normal course by General Sir
Arthur Paget, the commander-in-chief
In Ireland.
In the meantime the officers con-
cerned," according to the statement,
"are performing their duties, which
duties naturally include obedience to
orders"
Meanwhile General Sir Arthur
Paget continues to dispose his troops,
who have orders to safeguard gov
eminent property and to maintain
law and order.
In order to prevent an outburst the
police in Ireland have been told not
to take any steps to enforce the gun
license act in cases where members
of the Ulster volunteers are seen car
rying rifles in camp or elsewhere. The
act empowers the authorities to seize
all unlicensed firearms.
The greatest danger is believed to
lie in the possibility of Orange and
Nationalist workmen coming to blows.

Telephone Achievements
Telephone Service Of Today the Creation Of the Bell Co.

"a ! 4 4 j. Il
In no line of human endeavor has the in
ventive brain of the scientist contributed
more to the worlds progress than by the
creation of the art of telephony, OF which
the Bell system is the embodiment.
When the telephone was born, nothing
analogous to telephone service as we now
know it existed. There was no tradition
to guide, no experience to follow
The system, the apparatus, the methods
an entire new art had to be created.
The art of electrical en- gineering did not
exist. The Bell pioneers, recognizing that
success depended upon the highest engin-
eering and technical skill at once organized
an experimental and re search department
which is now directed by staff of over
boo engineers and scientists, including
former professors, postgraduate students,
scientific investigators-the graduates of
over 20 universities.
From it's foundation the company has
continuously developed the art. New i'm
provements in telephones, switchboards,
lines, cables, have followed one another
with remarkable rapidity.
While each successive type OF apparatus
to the superficial observer suggested sim
Harity, each step in the evolution marked
decided improvement. These changes,
this evolution, has not only been continu-
GUS, but is continuing Substantially all
OF the plant now in use, including tele-
phones, sWitchboards, cables and wires, has

in the past 10 years.
Particularly in switchboards have the
changes been so radical that installations

quently been discarded after only few
years of use. '~.r : ~
Since 1877 there have been introduced
So types and styles of receivers and 70
types and styles of transmitters OF the
100000 telephone receivers and trans
mitters owned by the Bell Company Janu-
airy l, 1914, none were in use prior to
1902, while the average age is less than
five years. =. ~. ..ar. ~-.zt.... -.~-~ =.
Within 10 years we have expended for
construction and reconstruction an amount
more than equal to the present book value
OF our entire plant. ...
Long-distance and Underground transmits
sion was the most formidable scientific
problem confronting the telephone ex-
perts. .
The retarding effect of the earth on
the telephone current often impaired con-
version through one mile underground as
much as through 90 miles overhead. Over
head conversation had it's distinct limita-
lions.
No possible improvement in the tele-
phone tran smitter could of itself solve
these difficulties. - ..
The solution was only found in the cum,l-
lative effect of improvements, great and
small, in telephone, transmitter, line ca
bic, switch board, and every other piece of
apparatus or plant required in the trans
mission of speech.
While the limit of commercial overhead
talking had increased from strictly local
to over 1000 miles as early as 1893, it
was not until 1905 that conversation could

be had over long-distance circuits OF which
as much as 20 miles was in underground
cables. By 1906 underground talking dis
lance had increased to 80 miles. By 1912
it was possible to talk underground from
New York to Washington.
1t was then that the construction of un-.
der ground cOnduits from Boston to Wash
ington was determined upon,-not that it.
was expected to get through under
ground talk between those places, bat in
case of storm or blizzard, to utilize inter-
mediate sections in connection with the
overhead.
Our persistent study and incessant ex-
perlmentation have produced results more
remarkable still.
we have perfected cables, apparatus and
methods that have overcome obstacles
heretofore regarded as insuperable both to
long distance overhead and underground
conversation.
Underground conversation is now pos
sAble between Boston and Washington
four times the length of the longest Euro
pean under ground line This enabled the
Bell System in the recent great storm, so
destructive on land and sea- to maintain
communication for the public between all
the principal points on the Atlantic sea-
board
Telephone communication is established
be between New York and Denver, is po-
tentially possible between all points in the
United States, and by 1915 will be an ac-
complished fact between New York and
San Francisco. -
In our use of methods or apparatus
we are committed to no one system. We
own, control or have the right to use in
1ventions- necessary to operate any system
recognized or accepted as the most effici-
- emit. The Bell System must always recog-

These achievements represent vast ex-

tration of effort which have been Justified
10y results OF unreasonable benefit to the
public. No local company unaided could
bear the financial or scientific burden of
THIS work. Such results are possible only
through a centralized general staff, avoid
ing wasteful duplication of effort, working
out problems common to all for the benefit
of all. -..-- -t
The prioneers Of the Bell System recos-
,nlZed that telephone service as they saw it,
was in the broadcast sense public utility:
that upon them rested a public obligation
to give the best possible service at the most
reasonable rates consistent with risk, in
vestment and the continued improvement
and maintenance of its property.
WlthQut this expenditure of millions and
concentration of effort the telephone art
as 1t exists could not have been developed.
What we have done in working out
these great problems in the past should be
accepted as guarantee of what we will do
in the future. ~
