 CHANGES IN RULES

Permission has been asked by the Mountain States Telephone and Tele- graph company to make number of changes in it's operating rules and schedules. A hearing upon this ap- plication will be held by the Commis- sion on January 8, and the Commis- sion hopes that as many telephone subscribers as possible will be pres ent in person.
 The more important changes urged by the telephone company may be listed as follows:
 1. The company requests that it be granted authority to change, at any time, without notice or hearing, its basic rate areas. In explanation of this it might be stated that the company creates certain arbitrary areas for business, residence and farm service, the rates in the different areas being based on the distance from the central office. If this re- quest is granted it means the company will have the right at any time to either restrict or enlarge the limits of the present areas, and by so doing automatically increase or decrease the rates of the subscribers located there in.
 2. The company asks the enact ment of rule that no one except members of the family of a telephone subscriber or employe of a subscrib- ing firm be allowed the use of the telephone.
 3. The company desires the right to disclaim any liability to the sub scriber for errors in the telephone di- rectory.
 4. The company asks the right to assess a penalty or fine, ranging from $1 to $2.50 before connecting or re- instating service after it has been discontinued for non-payment of ser vice charges or other breach of con- tract.
 5. The company desires the right to limit the length of conversation to five minutes duration.
 6. The company asks to be allowed to collect payment in advance for a period of three months or more from subscribers of no known financial re- sponsibility, the necessity for the charge to be determined by the com pany.
 '. In cases where the cost of es- tablishing service is in excess of $35 per patron the company asks to be al- lowed to charge the subscribers for the construction costs in excess of $35 each, with the understanding the equipment so paid for by the subscrib- CT shall be donated to the company.
 It will be seen at a glance that these various items constitute changes that are of great importance to tele- phone users in Arizona, and it is the desire of the Corporation Commission that the people express their views on the subject, either by personal ap- pearance at the hearing set for Janu- ary 8, or by writing direct to the Con- mission.

A SAFE TEST

For those who are in need of rem edy for kidney troubles and bachache, it is good plan to try Doan's Kidney Pills. They are strongly recommend ed by Arizona people.
 Mrs. S. F. Kelley, 336 N. Pleasant St., Prescott, Arizona, says: "For six months my kidneys were in such bad condition I could hardly keep at my homework. After sitting down for any length of time my back was so lame l could hardly get up again. My back ached about every minute of the day. My kidneys acted irregular ly and my hands and feet swelled. Sometimes sacs of water hung be- meath my eyes. would become dizzy and seemed to see spots in front Of my eyes. Nothing would help me and I continued to suffer until a friend told me about Doan's Kidney Pills. used Doan's as directed and seven boxes cured me-"
 Price 50c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for kidney remedy-get Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that Mrs. Kelley used. Foster Milburn Co.,, Props, Buffalo, N. Y.

MUST HAVE FEDERAL
 LICENSE FOR BUSINESS

Scores of Arizona business con cerns stand in danger of having their doors closed, according to word re- ceived at the office of the federal food administrator from Washington. This is to the effect that the United States Food Administration will im- mediately take action to suspend the operation of all firms who are liable to federal license under the presidents proclamation of October 8 and who have not obtained the same, unless their application is received at once.
 Ample notice has already been given and no excuse should be tol- erated," says the official instructions.
 Persons who have applied for li- censes but have not received them may continue to operate unless advis- ed to the contrary, on the assumption that license is in process of issuance. Those who have not yet applied for license are counselled to do so at
  once or suffer the penalty imposed by the regulations governing the appli- cations.
 Retailers doing gross business of more than $100,000 annually as well as wholesalers, distributors and man. ufacturers of food stuffs must take out licenses. Applications should be mailed to the United States Food Ad- ministration, Law Department, Li- cense Division, Washington, D. c.
 The food administra tion has power to instruct wholesale daalers and oth- CT food handling industries under li- cense not to supply retailers who are violating the provisions of the food control act.
 It was made plain at tl,e office of the federal food admins 'rator for Arizona that it is not the intention to disturb legitimate business and the food administration will initiate steps against only those who are taking ad- vantage of war conditions to exact unreasonable profits on staple neces- saries.

RAILROAD FACTS AND FIGURES

There are in the United States about 260,000 miles of lines, which is about four-ninths of the total rail way mileage of the entire world.
 American railroads have 65,000 To- comotives, 6O,0OO passenger cars and 2,500,000 freight cars.
 Gross earnings of the railroads for the first six months of 1917 were $200 100000 greater than for the cor responding period of 1916, while the net earnings were S19,000,000 less this year than last.
 The total operating revenues of all railroads for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1917, were S3,S24 ,000, ,000; total operating expenses were s2,5S1,- : 100000; total net income S1 ,069, ,000,- 900.

lines are very good. The high rolling collar and long tight sleeves bespeak a businesslike attitude. Of course there are buttons, giving a smart double-breasted effect, and the ar engagement of the belt is most unus- ual. Her hat belongs to the times, for it is an aviator's cap, made of the same material as the dress.
 News from England.
 Now they are wearing raid suits in England! Made on the lines consid- cred proper by Red Riding Hood, there is cozy fur-lined hood on the cloak. These are worn to the thea ter, or restaurant, for that is the time of night when air raids are us- ually made.
 The Vestee Dress.
 The vest has come into it's own in the fashions this season, and now we have the vestee dress, as smart as it can be. The sleeves are attached to the lining, giving still further effect of a sleeveless vest or jacket to the dress. It is an extremely simple dress; the skirt is straight, being one piece. Contrasting material is used for the surplice collar and the gaunt- let cuffs.
 Wool trimming is being used a great deal, and there are knitted col lar and cuffs on some of the most at tractive walking costumes. Wool flowers, small flat roses, and so forth are used to trim hats.

WILL NOT STOP SHIPMENTS.

Setting at rest rumors that have been circulated to the effect that the government might stop shipments to gold mines, Congressman Carl Hay. den telegraphed to Attorney Paul c. Thorne the result of an interview with R. S. Lovett, at the head of the Transportation Bureau in charge of all United States railways. MT. Lovett stated emphatically to MT. Hayden that no action curtailing shipments to gold mines was contem- plated. This effectually disposes of the unfounded reports circulated prin- cipally from San Francisco.

along fashion lines. Of course, now we have the mandarin coat, and other Chinese and Japanese garments oc- for our benefit. There seems to be wave of color worship going broadcast over the land, and everywhere one hears the remark, q don't care how simple it is, or how little trimming you put on it, if you will just make it beautiful of line and color" After all, that is the true beauty in dress, as in everything else.

10000 GRADUATE NURSES
 REQUIRED IN HOSPITALS

With a continuance of the war, in the next year at least 10000 nurses will be needed in army hospitals at home and abroad. Of the 80,000 graduate nurses of the country only $500 have so far been assigned to duty in army service, and of this number 1,500 are in France.
 An army nurse must be graduate of training school for nurses and must have served for two years in a hospital. They are assigned to duty in the United States or abroad, and preferences are granted when condi- tions permit. Nurses who prefer not to have service abroad will have their preferences respected.

FASHION AUTHORIZES
 THE MARTIAL STYLES

Last Spring there was perfect ep- idemic of military styles, capes, coll lars, brass buttons, and so forth, and then the mode changed, as modes will, and the summer fashions were the softest, frilliest frills possible to or gandies and mulls and that prime fav- orite, gingham. Now we are having military costumes, saner they are too, and seemingly more subtle in their resemblance to the uniforms and oth- CT toggery of the men.
 Never have brown, army drab, kha- Xii color and navy blue been so much used. Gilt braid, too, abounds on the

frocks for afternoon, the most severe ly plain of all the coat-dresses, having touch of militarism that makes the fashion world akin to the real world. High boots in the lovely mahogany brown or lighter tan have wide mili- tary heels; and there are whispers that woolen stockings, oh, fine, soft, lovely woolen stockings, are replacing the cobwebby silk ones.
 As to hats, they, too; are quite mar tial. One may wear the wide-brim- med, peaked, crowned service-hat without any feminizing details to dis guise it. One may have a cocky little hat Cor cap, as you wilD borrowed from the boys, with wings. One may wear the dropping cock feathers of the Italian officer, or velvet hat shaped like the cap of the French lieu tenant. In fact, one may wear what one pleases, so long as the chosen headpiece be becoming. Trim they are, too, and very fetching, worn at the right angle, with the proper amount of coquetry, but woe to the unwilling damsel with the high pom padour who perches Tipperary hat on the tip-top of her hairl The re- suit is ridiculous.
 Oriental Influences,
 There are reports of other sources for styles than Paris. The Orient, with it's bewildering array of things mysteriously beautiful, sends us rare color combinations, unusual embroid- cries and hand-woven materials that are not made elsewhere. One famous house here in New York has sent it's buyers to China, Japan and India in- stead of to Paris, and we can look for some very interesting developments
