 "Oh. And you're to chaperon her so the well-known bloom don't get brushed off her, eh ?" drawled the girl hand on hip, eyes half closed and red lips scornful.
 Sally doesnt need chaperoning"
 The show girl elevated a shoulder, 'slim and powdery- white.
 No? Comes right from the Bible class out in Painted Post, what Sanctimonious stuff hey? So d. good nothing can smirch her, an all that rot? We'll, tell her to watch her step, all the same, or she might trip over somethin', see?"
 Ned Vain, the stage director, hur- ried up at this moment and was in- troduced by Lucy to Sally. The criti- cal show girl moved off slowly. as if she were dismissng an uninteresting scene.
 But there was an ill-natured express sion about her slender shoulder and the face that glanced over it, that told the sagacious Sally she was not yet through with her.

Men Blind to Woman's Suffering.

How many men, think you. have women in their own household, and often without murmur? They have no patience when the overworked wife and mother begins to get pale, have headaches, backaches, faint spells, or is melancholy and cannot sleep. There is help for every woman in this condition, as evidenced by the many voluntary letters of recommen- dation which we are continually pub fishing in this paper for Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. It will pay any woman who suffers from such ailments to give it a trial.-advt

TELLS WHY HE
 OPPOSED FUND
Copeland Thinks Health De- partment Is Lacking in
 Efficiency

W. B. Copeland, member of the Jefferson county board of revenue, yesterday issued statement set ting forth his reasons for voting against the additional appropriation for the county board of health. MT. Copeland's Statement follows in part:
 Our reason for voting against the increased appropriation for the health department was not because we are not in sympathy with any thing pertaining to the welfare or the community, but because we be- Heve hat with proper management just as efficient work can be accom- plished with much less expenditure.
 "Dr. Bowling, health officer, agreed with the board of revenue that with the appropriation secured from the government, $4S,000. the amount of the budget fixed by the board for his department, would meet all of his needs.
 Tt Is entirely possible for the health board to calculate ahead to within 8 few hundred dollars of the needs for that department, as the the Item of salaries is very largely the total cost. This is especially true this year, as there has been no cpl demic. Dr. Ward. chairman of the board of health laid great stress on the fact that in asking for this addi- tional s10.000 it was the unanimous opinion of his board that this was necessary. This board last year also indorsed Dr. Dowling's increasing his own salary from s4,500 to $7.500'. So when 1t comes to the matter of finances, the indorsement of the board of health of pr. Dowlings ac- tons doesn't count for much with us. Mrs. Rattle Jacobs struck the keynote last winter, when at meeting of the city commission and board of reve- nue she asked Dr. Ward, If he did not think that Dr. Bowling was di- recting the board of health rather than the board of health directing him'?"
 According to figures given out by the board of revenue the pay roll for the county health department for the

 There iu no shortage of coal at the mines, no shortass of labor and no other conditi1o except lack of transportation that is now interior ing or will interfere with the public getting full and dependable supply ef coal" declares Mfr. Ysrkes.

 "At a hearing before the sub committee of the House of Represen- satives committee on appropriatiops. of which the Hon. W. B. Oliver of Alabama is & member. held in Wash fngton September IS, a far from rosy picture of the railroads was painted by representatives of the interstate commerce commission, who testified in executive sessions before the oom- n1ittse in response to a request for deficiency appropriations
 "The principal witness was Sfr '. C. Roth, director of the bureau of service of the interstate commerce commission, and who is daily actively and intimately in touch with oper- ating conditions of the railroads of tho United StateR Mir. Roth stated:
 "'The first result of the railroad shopmen's strike has been a rapid deterioration of locomotives. The forces of tho carriers arc go de- pleted by the strike that they have been unable to turn locomotives to terminals promptly, have been unable to repair locomotives and oarR and the net result has been an accumu- lation of freight and inability on the part of the carriers to move current ly the freight offered.
