ONE OWNERSHIP OF
RAILROADS Is BEST

SAN FRANCISCO. Cal, March IS.
The ownership OF all the railroads
in the United States by one company
would result in better transportation
facilities and save much duplication,
according TO the statement made by
Julius Kruttschnitt chairman OF the
board Of directors OF the Southern
Pacific railroad, testifying at the
hearing before examiners in connec-
ton with the proposed unmerging Of
the Central and Southern Pacific.
He would not admit however. that
the United States government should
be that agency.
His statement followed his testi-
mony that the single management of
the Central Pacific and Southern Pa
cific had resulted in much greater
efficiency

THE PAIN OF NEURALGIA

People think of neuralgia as pain in
the head or face but neuralgia may affect
any nerve OF the body. Different names
are given to it when it affects certain ner-
yes. Thus neuralgia of the sciatic nerve
is called sciatica but the character of the
pain and the nature of the disease is the
same, the cause is the same and the
remedy to be effective, must be the same.
The pain of neuralgia is caused by
starved nerves. The blood, which nor
mally carries nourishment to the nerves,
for some reason no longer does 80 and
the pain that you feel is the cry of the
nerves for food. The reason why the
blood fails to properly nourish the nerves
is often because the blood itself is weak
and thin.
Anemia, or thin blood, is the most
common cause of neuralgia. Build up
the thin blood with DR.. Williams Pink
Pills and you are attacking neuralgia at
it's root. These tonic pills also have q
peculiar and direct action on the nerves
so that they are probably the very best
possible remedy for the treatment of neu-
ralgia.
Your own druggist sells DR.. Williams
Pink Pills. Get box today and write
to the DR.. Williams Medicine Co., Schen-
cctady, N. Y, for the free book "Nervous
Disorders, A Method OF Home Treat
ment."

trian soldiers on Serbian soil except
prisoners-Putnik."
Putnik's great ability as a strateg-
ist first brought him into prominence
in the last two Balkan wars. He
crushed the Turks and by his careful
ly planned strategy Serbian losses
we're comparatively very small. At the
famous battle Of Komanovo, the Turks
left $4,000 dead and wounded on the
field and the Serbians, 10000. He was
equally successful at Monastir and
at Prilep. In the present war his re-
markable ability in handling armies
was put to still greater test, owing to
the exhausted resources of his forces
following the two previous wars. In
the first clash with the Austrians at
Sabathe and Lozmitzia where early in
September the enemy suffered their
first crushing defeats at the hands OF
the Serbians, General Putnik's army
nevertheless lost heavily. There fol
lowed one of the most mastery re-
treats IN history. It was not until
early in November that the Austrians
gathered another army and started
against Serbia. They planned first TO
take Kraguyeyats. where the Serbian
arsenal is located. then to march OF
Nish, the temporary capital, and then
on even to Salonika. the Aegean port
at which Austria has cast longing
eyes for half century.
,~ Putnik's army had spent nearly all
its remaining munitions in two months
of trench warfare intervening betwee1
the SEPT ember and November cam
paigns. France promised aid, but it
was known it would be weeks in ar
irving 1t was during these weeks
that the Serbian "Joffre' performed
mira cles of strategy. He placed his
troops at points in the mountain
passes the Austrians were forced to
traverse and at minimum expendi-
ture Of ammunition held back the in
yaders until the French ships reached
Salonika. When aid came, the Aus

Negotiations for the purchase of the
automobile fire truck for the Sixth
street department were closed yester-
day and tho truck will be delivered
early next week. It will be driven
here from Chicago as soon as the
roads become better. If the roads re-
main in bad condition the machine

factory. Chief Anderson will go to
Chicago early in the week and return
with the machine. The driver from
the factory will remain here until he
has taught members of the local de-
partment how to handle the machine.
The factory expert will select three
men from the department whom he
will teach to drive the car. After he
has worked with these men awhile he
will select one of the three to take
charge Of the machine. This man will
be responsible for everything con.
nected with it and the otner two will
not be permitted to touch it unless at
his order.
Tho company which manufactures
the machine, say they have had the
best success with this plan. They do
not advocate the employment OF a
trained cEauT ur to handle the car.
