that these men were named for regular

HYATTSVILLEFOLK
SHUN W.R.&E. CARS
Only 0ne-Eighth Of Regular
Patrons Use Line Since
Strike Was Called.

HYATTSyILE, Md, March 1e.-Fig-
ures gathered today, after a careful
research, show that scarcely more
than one-eight of the regular patrons
of the Washington Railway and Elec-
trio Company of this town have used
the cars of the company since the
strike was called.
G. B. NJ. Arnold, local agent OF the
Baltimore and Ohio, said that during
the week just ended the daily sale of
tickets to Washington over that rail-
road has averaged 800 above normal.
DIR. s. William Ford, ticket agent for
the City and Suburban line. said sales
of Communication books to Hyattsville
residents amount to 400 each month.
This shows that, although the street
cars manned by strike breakers are
carrying a large number, practically
three-fourths of the regular patrons
OF the line here are using the Balti-
more and Ohio.
1t Is safe to say that one-half of the
remaining fourth are using the vari-
GUS automobile lines running to Wash
ington. This leaves about one-eighth
OF the regular patrons using their
monthly tickets.

land the patient should go to bed, darken
the room, and all the attendants and
family should be as quiet as possible.
An emetic will some times shorten the
attack. The bowels should be kept open
and hot bath and thorough rundown
with q coarse towel, often give grateful
relief. Two anti-kamnia tablets when the
nrst signs appear, will usually prevent
the attack. During an attack, one tablet
every hour or two will shorten the
attack and relieve the usual nausea and
vomiting" These tablets may be OBJ

Currency and Bank Notes.

Uncle Sans money laundry Is
closed down. United States currency
and bank notes are no longer being
made fresh and crisp by a nice bath

Pressure OF work in the redemption
division OF the Treasury has been SO
heavy for months that II was neces-
sary to close down the money laundry
to put all available hands to work
at the sorting and counting of old
bills turned in for redemption.
This news will no doubt give Joy to
plate printers at the Bureau of En-
craving and Printing, who have con-
sistently opposed money washing.
The machines will be started again,
however. as soon as it Is possible to
spare operators, but this probably will
not be for several weeks,
In the meantime, packages OF notes
received from the banks for washing
