 Not Intended as "Cure-.alP'
 The electron eEaerator applied to affected parts. declares Woodin, re- lieves or eliminates pain. It is not primarily intended a curative, but is designed to alleviate aches while operations. The minute electrons enanate from the stmple-looking in srument. It is @. coil Of many wind ings of fine wire. insulated and disc. A length of lamp cord attached thereto, a three ampere fuse and a screw plug for insertion into the ordinary lamp socket constitute the The coil, Woodin explains, consti- tutes an 1mpasse and the current is thereby screened into it's ninute1v component parts, known as electrons, which. freed from their stream through definite circuit radfate without control upon and through all
 matter within their field of influence T do not claim that the eIectron enanator is 'cure-a11,'" Woodin as- serted. Experience has indicated it's though it's therapeutic action has seemed quite marvellous to those who
 have been permitted to experience
 it's curative powers, it is disclosed to
 the physician, not only as an aid, but
 as provocative of further research

frantic efforts to compete with water transportation, make a freight rate less than cost along water routes and
 recoup their losses by overcharging inland shippers, according to Repre- senta1ive Newton of Missouri. Newton is advocating prohibiting the railroads from collecting exorbi- Uant rates upon inland lines to make up what they lose trying to destroy barge-lne transp ortation upon our waterways
 He declared that no better iI1ustra- tion of the railroads methods can be l 1ished between Minneapolis and St. Louis upon first-class freight
 The railroads recently went be- fore the Interstate Commerce Com make a rate upon 100 pounds of first class freight between these two cit | ies a distance of 5S6 miles. for S1.O6 | 1-2. while the same Commission per country from Minneapolis to Kansas ! City, S6 miles less in distance, to charge for hauling the same kind and amount of freight S1.44 because DO river runs direct from Minneapolis to | Kansas City,
 Another instance is given by New ton. He says that the railroads haul from New Orleans to St. Louis freight for s1-7S, while they charge s1S4 1-2 for hauling the same amount of like freight from New Or leans to Fort Smith. Ark, 494 miles, because there is no water competi- ton.
 Newton believes that some system ought to be worked out so that trans portation systems will cooperate and mot fight each other all the time"
 Let us give the public the benefit
 of cheap water transportation where
 waterways exist and then pay the railroads a compensatory rate a rate
 hai ,x,l
 will give their stockh elders a divi- deud occasionally between ' points
 where water comp etitzon does not ex-. ist" is Newton's plea
