Material costs for telephone con-
struction have decreased 22.7 per cent
since 1890, according to testimony

Seven items, he asserted, had not
changed, while in the others there
had been an increase aggregating 15-S
per cent. Reproduction costs of
plants at Atchison, Arkansas City, Ell

Stllman Fight Is on Again

The Stillman divorce case Is again
to the front and the most interesting
development seems to be that Miss
Anne Stillman, who espoused the cause
of her father, became reconciled to her
mother during the summer months.
Although Miss Stillman never definite
~ broke with her mother, she sided
with her father, and it was through
her that an effort was made to COM
promise the case last spring. Miss
Stillman now occupies a unique posi-
ton in the family, as she is on friend
ly terms both with her mother and
father. 1t has been learned that Mrs.
Stillman, Bud" Anne, Alexander, and
Guy took part in a so-called family
reunion" in Canada during the sum.

Another equally interesting devel-
opment is the report that Mr.. Still
man hopes for a reconciliation with
Mrs. Stillman. In this connection 1t
was reported that Mrs. Stillman would

Wilson'S Health Is Improved

Woodrow Wilson fell sick man
two years ago. Since then he has
passed under the shadow of death and
out of the White House. He will be
sixty-five years old next December and
has passed through an ordeal which
few men survive. His normal weight
In health while he was president was
$50 pounds. He shows little departure
from that figure. His eyesight Is as
good although he has discarded his
favorite nose glasses for spectacles.
His hair has turned snow white.
The motor nerves and muscles of
his left side have given more response
to treatment than was hoped for. He
still walks with cane most Of the
time, but frequently hangs the crook
over his arm and "goes it alone with
out my third leg"
Mr.. Wilson is far from a well man.
But during the last two years there
have been times when his voice was
inaudible and when he could not sup
