EXPRESS CARRIERS MAKE URGE GAINS Enormous Profits from Business Stagger - Belief Story of Growth.

Albert W. Atwood. in the Am-rlran Magazine (February) ipIIh or profits ty the various cxpn-ns companies Vhlch amount Into the millions, yet the original Investment, more particularly with reference to the Adams express eopany, us described In the railroad commission of Indiuna, whs probubly "tho price of a valise carried by Alvln Adams." In March HV. It Is believed, however, that William y. Harden became the founder of a mighty institution when he made his first trip from New York to Uoston, with one valise. That trip was really 1he start of the express business, but today the buslnvsB has grown till express companies buy transjKirtatlon wholesale from the railroads and sell It, retail, to the public. Doubt Is expressed by the writer If the Adams company has put one cent of now money Into the business fclnce 181. Indeed, there is grave doubt If nny capital was ever Invested. Till within recent years the express companies were a kingdom unto themselves, and it was not till 1X!5 that the companies were placed under the authority of the interstate commerce commission, that year marking the decline and fall from senatorial power of IMatt and Depew. The express companies were represented In the s?nato by both of these men for a generation and before that by Calvin Hryce. In the meantime their profits had swollen enormously. In the first dash by the Interstate commerce commission Ihe express companies were caught In a clumsy effort to conceal millions of profils, which were marked as "expenses," and which the commission decided were "fictitious expenses." During all the fifty years and more, the express companies have gone Rhead slicing big, fat watermelons, and yet, literature bearing on their operations, In the way of official reports, or such other mutter as might be called data, has been notable chiefly because of Its absence. Kven yet, there Is not h Ins explaining why its costs 14 cents to send a five-pound package two hundred miles In Kngland and 35 cents to send it the same distance by the American in America. Yet, of recent years, at least the six big express compunles have been earning $125,000,000 a year, and the service which they perform has become an indcsrenslble pnrt of the country's induslrlul mechanism. So mighty have the express companies grown that in ' 1HS0 they declined to Rive information to the United States census bureau, and In ISftO.what little was reported to the bureau was grudgingly given. No Stockholders Mooting. Not till three or four years ago did the companies keep any general statistics regarding their own business. The writer boldly avows that the American express company, during the half century of Its life, has never had an annual meeting of stockholders, while the United States express company has not held an annual meeting since the civil war. Many of the stockholders who reap golden harvests therefrom, do not know how the business ts run. There is now, however, n disposition by the general public to know why the express companies have so long enjoyed Immunity. A petition of 124 commercall bodies, and one by the American Hankers association, demanding an investigation, has been filed with the Interstate commerce commission, and possibly there may be a regulation of the bus"Doot Stimulant En tho World."

Thin Hair on Top

A Dote of Parisian Siae In Time Multlplies One Hair by Nine. Young men. old men, middle age men all begin to worry w hen the hair thins out on the top of the head, and , the bald spot is getting ready to appear in public. They don't know what to do; they j got rattled, ask advice, try specialists, listen to barbers and do everything J they ought not to do. To these men we want to say that Leo II Kihe has a prescription for the hair called Parisian Sage, and if it will not cause hair to grow where the hair Is thinning out, nothing on this earth will. And we want to say to everybody, man, woman and child, that you can have your money back If Parisian Sage isn't tho best hair grower, hair saver, hair beautifier and dandruff cure on the market to-day.

The girl with the Auburn hair is on every bottle. iness as contemplated by the Hepburn act of 1906. Meanwhile, the present secretary of the treasury has repudiated several clauses of the iniquitous contract between the government, and the express companies. The supreme court of Nebraska believes that the express companies transact business for more different people than do the railroads. The Adams express company has handled more than sixty-seven million transactions in a year, and another company has carried 220,000 packages from New York to San Francisco. There Is no limit to the quality of business tranacted, from transporting game and fruit, and gold and bank notes, and all sorts of precious jewels to exchanging foreign money, paying gas bills, and executing deeds, conveyances and contracts, and on many lines of business the use of the speedier express service. Instead of by freight, has become for all practical purposes, compulsory. Coupled with this six of the larger express companies are today among the greatest bankers. For with them, in one year, the public has deposited $352,590,814. Their transactions in money orders, travelers' checks, letters of credit, bills of exchange, rivals the most powerful banks. This banking business is under no government supervision and is not taxed. It is only possible through using the machinery of the regular banks that the companies are made to pay any revenue whatever. The companies compete with the postoffice in the money order line. The American express company in one year handled nearly seventeen million money orders. Control More than 90 Per Cent. Six companies control more than 90 percent, of the country's express business. The Adams Is the oldest and most powerful. It was organized fifty-six years agon, and its capital stock grew to $10,000,000 in 1866, in which year the members of the association received a $2,000,000 stock dividend. The $10,000,000 of stock itself did not represent shares issued for cash, for, according to a report by the company, no shares were issued for cash. The 100,000 shares were given to members to represent each member's pro rata ownership in the assets, which had accumulated from earnings. According to the census report, in 1890, the comniny had an actual investment in property employed In its business of but $1,128,195. yet it had been paying 8 per cent dividend for years or 80 per cent on the actual value of the property in ufp. In 1S98 It distributed $12,000,000 of its own bonds to stockholders: those bonds secured by deposit in trust of surplus funds not used in the express business. Tho company then reduced its dividend rate to 4 per cent, nut 4 per cent was also paid on its bonds and in 1904 tho dividend rate had mountd to 10 per cent., the bond interest remaining 4 at per cent. MR. LABORING MAN Are you earning $10. $12 or $15 a week? If so It will interest you to read ' the advertisements of the Wilbur j I,and Co. 24-2t Al Local Theaters As Told in the Hills. If press notices and large box office receipts have anything to do with the success of an attraction, "As Told In the Hills" surely will get the prize. Ever since its first performance, press notices have been showered upon It and the box office reports have never been reached by another attraction playing in the popular price houses. Alex. Story, producer of "As Told i in the Hills" has arranged for bis lat est success to appear at the Gennett Monday night. A Great Comedy Hit. In certain prejudiced quarters there is a belief, as deep rooted and per sistent as alfalfa, that dramatic critics go to a play on first night In a sort of spirit of resentment and resolved against the slightest exhibition of enjoyment. That belief is a fallacy. .Truth Is. critics see so many plays that it takes something out of the ordinary to penetrate their stoicism. When one does produce this effect It can be 'set down as a wonder. "Seven Days" (did. Here Is the confession of one of the guild of critics, Frederick McKay !of the New York Evening Mall. In writing of the opening of "Seven Hays' Mr. McKay said: "All the critics at the Astor theater last night laughed without restraint. Fortunately his was not where critics land the public disagreed. 'Seven i Days' they are the jolliest seven days yoi can Imagine. 'Seven Days' is the jolliest farce since 'Charley's Aunt.' To be honest. It is funnier than "Charley's Aunt' ever dreamed of being. It Is wildly comic." Isn't that a jromlso-of-jnbirlwijKl

of merriment at the Gennett on Friday 'evening when Wagenhals and Kemper company presents this facotis comedy,

an - wi'n brilliant New York cast !and Production? "Seven Days'' is the! DiggeBi comeay nu in iwemy years. It has kept New York roaring with ( laughter for two years, it had Chicago convulsed for six months. It will send those who see it here into gay hysteria. Nerve on the Stage Few there arc who realize the danger that attends such a bar act as being put on the the Murray this week by the PeerB. A cold draft across the stage with its numbing effect, too much perspiration on the hands, of a slip of the foot while standing on a bar any one of these or numerous other errors is enough to cost the athlete dear. In an act on a cold stage performed by one of the Peers recently such Jin accident occurred and as a result he was off duty for a week with an internal injury. few who have him Ih a tt'r.Cir 111 n 1 c aTsrt nn? . i . , . . , performances have known that every move he make3 is accompanied by pain. "But I can't let the act go," he pays with pride. "We have performed it for ten years, and it would be a shame to stop it. now, especially in so neat a theater as the Murray." WHY SHIRTWAISTS GET FLIMSY. Do you know why your shirtwaists get flimsy and won't "do up" nice? Well, you and the washboard rub all of the original surface off of the texture. Of course, you have to rub hard when you use poor, cheap soap, but you don't have to use that kind. Get a cake of Hewitt's Easy Task Soap. It makes a clean, white siuls that takes the dirt right out. Costs only a nickel and makes the work so easy. ALASKA GOLD FIELDS HAVE NEW OUTLET Kdmondton, Alberta, March 25. American capitalists are going to give the Alaskan gold fields a new railroad outlet. It became known here that an American group interested in Alaska have consented to underwrite the bonds of the Canadian Pacific for a direct line from here to Dawson City. A few days ago contracts were let for a line between here and Moose Jaw, where connections will be made with the Soo line. Work upon the proposed road running west will be commenced in the spring. PREACHER WANTS WORK. If there is a church in this city that's without a preacher. I will preach the Gospel for them without a stated salary and warrant a success. Address "Preacher" this office. Give liim trial he is a good one. -It Business College Notes Chester Lohse, who has been third trick operator at Campbcllstown, O., called it the office and reoorted that he has been transferred to the Richmond yards. Ralph Slautterbaek, who has been employed at the Starr Piano factory, resigned his position and accepted a place with the Roniey Furniture company. The position there was made vacant by the resignation of Onier Coffman. who accepted a place with the International Harvester company. Some of the boys from the country '.iave gone home for the summer to help with the farm work. Kuth Fulghum is doing temporary work for the Richmond Baking com pany of this city. The advanced students have been addressing and mailing "Beacons" this week. Gladys Perm. Ethel Chenoweth. and Lottie Ingersoll, are working on a mailing list for Feltman's Shoe com pany. Mr. Gardner is iu charge of this work . The report from the employment department shows that forty-nine positions have been filled during the past week. Alta Irwin is doing stenography work for the Emmons Medicine company. Mr. Haw-kins, of Winchester, whose son is in attendance here, made a pleasant call at the school Wednesday. Glen Pearce, who is a bookkeeper for the Rex Buggy company at Connersville, Indiana, was called home this week on account of the severe illness of his grandmother. He called at the school on his return. Dr. Anna Shaw permits it to be known that she would not decline to become Mr. Depew 's successor in the United States senate. A WEAK WOMAN ' AND HER STORY In Floral, Ark., Lives a Lady Who Feeis That Her Strength Was Restored by Gardui. Floral, Ark." I must speak a good word for Cardui," writes Mrs. viola Baker, of this place. "About a month a;o I was in very bad health. I was so weak and nervous that 1 was not able to do my housework. "My husband bought me one bottle cf Cardui, the woman's tonic. I took it according to directions and now I am in good health. "I think Cardui is a Fine tonic for weak women." And you are not the only lady who thinks so, Mrs. Baker. Thousands, like you. have written to tell of the wonderful oeneiit Cardui has been to them. Cardui contains no minerals, or other powerful drugs. It contains no glycerin or other mawkish-tasting ingredients. It is just a pure, natural extract, of natural vegetable herbs, that have been found to regulate the womanly functions and strengthen the female system. All druggists sell Cardui. See yours about it.

FOR A LONG LIFE

Fresh air and exercise, with proper food and a sufficient amount of sleep are the essentials. Under such a regime of living, germs cannot develop and many diseases are prevented. Should the system require a tonic, take only- such as you know their ingredients such is Vinol. which Is a delicious combination of the healthgiving properties of the cods' livers, with all the useless grease eliminated and tonic iron added, happily blended in a mild, medicinal wine. For this reason Vinol is regarded as one of the greatest body builders and invigorators for aged people. It invigorates and builds them up and keeps them up. We sell Vinol with the understanding that If it does not give satisfaction the price will b returned. Leo 11. Fihe, druggist, Richmond, Ind. SPOIL FARMER BOYS City Girl Teachers Turn Their Ambitions. Chicago, March 25. "The city girl who goes into rural communities to teach is a menace to the agricultural future of the nation. She strikes at the backbone of the country's prosperity. "From her position on the rostrum of the little red schoolbouse the teacher from the city turns the thoughts of her boy pupils into other channels than those leading to the raising of cattle and corn." Joseph Chapman, jr., vice-president of the Northwestern National bank of Minneapolis, pictured the city girl in this new role in a talk. His views were expressed in a Ciscussion of the subject of "Agricultural Education and Vocational Training" at the weekly luncheon of the ways and means committee of the Chicago Association of Commerce in the La Salle hotel. Trained Away From Farm. "The present system of education trains boys away from the farm," said the speaker. "As a result of this influence on his mind at a critical period the boy fails to see later the possibilities that lie in the scientific development of farm land, and, believing his future lies in the city, soon deserts the life of tilling the soil." Agricultural High Schools. In the establishment of agricultural high schools Mr. Chapman sees the only hope of overcoming, the prejudice against the farm and in getting out of the soil what it really owes to the country. He advised Illinoisans to take heed of the situation. "Ten agricultural high schools were provided for in Minnesota two years ago," he said. "In a canvass of the Btate we could not find enough teachers to man the schools. Ten more schools will now be established. "We must turn back to the soil keep close to the dirt if we are to continue as a prosperous nation. In the rural consolidated schools agriculture is going to have its place. A Bright Maid. Ttoey are telling a story of the favored suitor of a Cleveland society girl Trho called at the bousa of his inamorata recently and found a new parlor maid at the door. "Is Miss Blank in? This is Mr. Dash." he explained. The maid smiled brightly. "Oh. yes, sir," she replied, and led him into the drawing room. Here he waited the better part of an hour, when he finally summoned the maid again. "Did you forget to tell Miss Blank that I was here?"' he asked impatiently. "No, sir." answered the new maid. "Miss Blank hasn't got back from shopping yet." "But you told me she was in' "Yes. sir: She told me positively that she was always at home to you. sir." Cleveland Plain Dealer.

use of soidiers on spies, wnn insiruc-, tions how to deal w ith them. The publication of the book has been accelerated owing to events connected with the well known Brokum case. Hints are first given as to how the soldier is to recognize a spy; howspies ingratiate themselves into the favor of soldiers often as peddlers. Soldiers are requested to be very cautious what t'-icy say in public houses, or on journey. They are not to be communicative to strangers: not to be confidential in military affaiis; to exercise a wise taciturnity. When a soldier suspects a spy he is to go to his superiors and report, and at the same time keep his eye on the suspect. Should he detect his spy in action he may arrest him; for example should he find his photographing or burgling military stores or loafing about fortresses without a permit. I Should the soldier err on the side of too great zeal, and his suspicions turn out to be unfounded, his superiors are not to pnnish him. The will is to be taken for the deed, and his zeal is to be commended. The successful man who lias caught a spy is to be awarded in an especial manner. Soldiers are warned about dishonorable character of espionage, and reminded of the terrible punishment awaiting the man who willingly makes himself a spy's tool. Even after doing his term of penal servitude such a person is despised forever. Soldiers in frontier garrisons and fortresses, where the danger of espionage is great are to be supplied at once with tuis manuel.
