RUSH-HOUR CAR ORDER
BECOMES LAW TODAY

Late last night at the car barns of the
Capital Traction and Washington Rail-
way and Electric Companies It was re-
ported that no special orders had been
issued looking forward to compliance
with the order sof- the Public Utilities
Commission restricting the number of
passengers riding on cars during rush
hours, which goes into effect today
The order Of the commission calls for
seven square feet Of floor space for each
standing passenger during rush hours
and a seat for every passenger during
nOnrush hours
Just what effect this will have on the
travelling public it is difficult to say It
IS probable that the greatest difficulty in
enforcing the order will come from the
passengers who insist upon being allowed
to board the cars, despite their crowded
condition

ELECTRICAL ERA IN
RAILROADING DAWNS
40 MILES OF THE "MILWAU-
KEGS" MAIN LINE OVER THE
ROCKIES ELECTRIFIED.

A new era in railroading dawns-
another milestone in the worlds prog
ress has been erected. The Chicago,
Milwaukee e St. Paul Railway has
inaugurated this great epoch by ac
complishing the longest extent of
main line electrification in the world,
through a region demanding the ut
most of energy and efficiency in loco
motives.
The electrified district is that of the
Great Continental Divide, extending
from Harlowton, Mont, to Avery,
Idaho, distance of 440 miles-G 15
miles from Three Forks to Deer Lodge,
Montana, now in operation.)
The power used to operate the giant
electric locomotives is obtained from
mountain waterfalls. From the hydro
electric plant at Great Falls and from
other plants, the electricity is trans
mitted at the high tension Of 100000
volts alternating current to IA sub sta
tions Of the railway, and there is
stepped down and changed to 5000
volts direct, the current used by the
locomotives.
One of the scientific marvels is re-
generative braking, by which the train
or down grades, instead of consuming
electricity. actually produces it, and by
which at the same time the speed Of the
train is kept under perfect control
without using the air brakes.
With identification has come, con-
servation of resources, more efficient
and economical operation better main
tenance of schedules, the practical
elimination of all trouble due to snow
and cold, smoother riding, and enhanced
comforts owing to freedom from smoke,
dirt and cinders.
Electrifcation added to it's other ad-
vantages, makes the "Milwaukee" more
than ever the road of efficiency, COM
fort and charm. Remember this fact
when planning your next trip to the
Pacific North Coast.
For literature and full information,
apply to local agent of this road.

TINY LIFE PRESERvERS.

High up on the list of popular baby
killers should be put the know-it all
neighbor who says Il don't care what
anybody says sand then rattles away
as long as her breath lasts on her ideas
of how babies should be cared for. Her
ideas are commonly opposed to common
sense and scientific knowledge. Ere
quently she is like the old lady who
said Il ought to know all about
babies-didn't I have ten of them and
bury nine?' Ignore her or show her
the door.
And then there is dear old Grand
ma" Her intentions are the best in the
world. She loves the baby just as much
as the mother does. In her day, babies
were rocked to sleep and it seems posi-
lively heartless to her, the now a day
way young, we'll instructed mothers put
the babies down to sleep when sleep
time comes, instead Of making them
sea sick by agitating their full little
stomachs in chair that sways back
and forth like a boat at anchor. Be
kind but firm with Grandmother!
Mother love, too, has killed it's thou
sands. When baby is sick it has
right to act sick and be treated as sick
grown-u can insist on being treated.
Mother love- is too frequently self
love. The mother is scared-and being
scared she comforts herself by futtering
around and annoying the infant. Her
business at such time is to realize that
baby needs to be left alone.
The principle Of sitting tight and do
ing nothing when one doesn't know
what to do, has many applications
throughout the care of a baby in sick
ness and health. Consider intestinal
disease, the greatest single cause Of
needless infant deaths, for example
Well ignore at this time the fact that
it might have almost certainly been
avoided in any individual case and con-
slider only the treatment. Of the babies
who contract intestinal disease, large
proportion dies because the parents dom
know enough to give stomachs and in
testines a chance to rest.
When the infant, in it's wisdom, re-
fuses food at such time, parents, far
too frequently, do everything but force
tempting morsels down it's throat The
inhamed stomach and intestines need
rest after being cleared of the irritation
which causes the disorder. The baby
instinct to sleep and starve itself is true
and safe. The parents fear that the
child may starve is false and may prove
fatal.
Successful "baby raisers" have nerve,
patience, and the wisdom which comes
from gaining information from reliable
sources.

book to send you free of charge.
