LONG HOURS A RARITY.
Only Once In Five Years Does Average
Trainman Exceed Legal Limit.

Only Once In Five Years Does Average
Trainnan Exceed Legal Limit.
That long hours in train service have
been reduced to a minimum is shown
by a report issued by the Interstate
Commerce Commission. Only one EN-
ploye in five on the average last year
was compelled to remain on duty more
than sixteen hours during any one day
In the whole year. Stated in another
way, the chance Of an engineman or
trainman remaining on duty beyond
this prescribed limit was reduced to
once in five years.
The total number OF cases Of excess
service from all causes reported to the
commission was only 61.247 during the
year ending June 80, 1915. as COM
pared with 1877 .439 in 1914 and 270,S27
In 1913. and with rare exceptions these
represented cases recognized as due to
unavoidable causes.
Statistics on this subject are collected

For several years the railroads and
the Interstate Commerce Commission
have been cooperating in efforts to
prevent the keeping Of employees on
duty for long periods. The reduction
Of nearly so per cent. in such cases

WHY YOU ARE NERVOUS

The nervous system is the alarm system
of the human body.
In perfect health we hardly realize that
we have a network of nerves, but when
health is ebbing, when strength is declin-
ing, the same nervous system gives the
alarm in headaches, tiredness, dreamful
sleep, irritability and unless corrected,
leads straight to breakdown.
To correct nervousness, Scott's Emul-
sion is exactly what you should take; its
rich nutriment gets into the blood and
rich blood feeds the tiny nerve-cells while
the whole system responds to its refresh
ing tonic force. It is free from alcohol.

GOVERNMENT SHOULD
REGULATE WAGES.

If a set Of conditions have
arisen which oblige the govern
ment to regulate rates, then Il
is equally obliged, on the basis
Of economic analysis, to regulate
wages accordingly. Having TAX
en- one step, it must take the
other. The logic Of events is
forcing this dilemma on the gov
ernment. 1t is the public which
sooner or later must pay for the
increased expenses Of transpor-
tation.-Professor J. Laurence
