Buffalo, N. ¥.— “I suffered with organic inflammation and displace meat. When lifting I had such pain and bearing down that I was not able to stand up, and it hurt me to walk or go up or down stairs. 1 was going to a doctor without any results and he said the safest thing would be to have an operation. £ met a lady who told me she had three operations and was not well until she took Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. 1 felt relief after taking two bottles of Vegetable Compound and I kept on with it until I was cured. I always use Lydia E. Pinkham’s Liver Fills aud they are fine.

The great increase in cost of s pumping water was caused, as all are * aware, from the high price paid for 1 ccal and also due to labor increases, t How Costs Jumped In the last six months, from Janu- t ary Ist to June 30th, 1920, the. cost ,-i lof manufacturing a K. W. H. of pow- j ;er has jumped from 2.95 per K. W. 11. | j to 3.20 cents per K. W. H„ or about a ten per cent increase over last , I year. This increase was caused from 1 j the high price of coal, which is high- i or this year than last. | Basing this year’s business on the 1 report for the last six months, the i electric light department would show ’ only a gain of $4,555.68, the net earn- 1 ings in the last six months being $2,277.84, including $969.58 of non-op- ! erating revenue. In the water department it cost i 21.911 cents to pump a thousand gallons of water last year while for the I first six months this year the cost jumped to 26.456 cents per thousand gallons. The loss so far sustained in the wafer department this year totals $11,275.79. The cost of production was $17,891.07 to pump 67.539,600 gallons of water, while the income from sales amounted to only $6,641.28 At the special meeting Friday evening the petition to the public service commission will be adopted and a new schedule of rates will also be sent to the commission to act on. The engineers have been employed by the city since the first of August and during that time they , made up the 1919 report required by the public service commission of all utilities and also have assisted in the installing of the new equipment at the waterworks. Their report is very thorough and covers in detail every item in the light and power plant, the amount of coal consumed, the > labor required, the value of the mai chinery and supplies and everything j that goes into a report where the 1 cost of production is determined on a valuation and cost finding basis.
