LONG DISTANCE TO
COST WAR PRICES, COMMISSION RULES
i Gambling Charges
Probably To Be Tried This Week Freeman
State long distance telephone charges will remain on a war basis, with rates reduced 50 per cent for station to station calls, between 8:30 and midnight, and 75 per cent between midnight and 4:30 o'clock. According to public service commission order. While the general scheme of long distance tolls was approved, the commission decided that all overtime calls shall be computed on the basis of "station to station" rates even tf the call is placed as a "person to person" call or in any other class of calling demanding a higher initial fee than the station rate. The reduction in the schedule of moving and installation charges 'were ordered by the commission, but will not affect Richmond, whose rates have been on the same basis of $3.50 for moving telephone from one loca
tion to another, and $3.00 for moving telephne . set from one location to another, on the same premises, and $3 for change in type of phone. This ruling effects all companies having more than $10,000 annual gross revenue. Uniformity la Decided The commission directed the various telephone utilities in the state to take immediate steps to secure uniformity in the interpretation and application of the schedule of toll rates and charges, and also directed the companies to take steps by means of publicity and personal communications to inform patrons of the rates so that they can take advantage of the lower rates if they so desire- The companies were "urged also to consider the establishment of special reduced toll rates for Sunday service. Although war schedules were established as legal in 39 cities and towns, Richmond nor any Wayne county town was affected.

Westcott Hotel men, arrested by the police on charges of gambling, probably will be tried in city court' this week. Prosecuting Attorney Freeman said Wednesday. The affidavits in the city court were not dismissed Tuesday by Freeman because A. Bishop, one of the defendants left town, thinking that the case had been dismissed. "I intended to ask that the case against the men in city court be dis
missed Tuesday, after I had filed affi
davits against them in circuit court, said the prosecutor. "But after learn ing of Bishop's departure I did not dis
miss them. I shall ask that the case be set for trial in city court and that
Bishop s bond of $50 be forfeited in case he fails to put into appearance."
In event Bishop is apprehended, the
case will be tried in circuit court, and
the affidavits in city court will be
dismissed.
The affidavits filed in circuit court
charged A. C. Disher and A. A. Brown,
manager and clerk of the hotel with
keeping a gaming liouse, while the .af
fidavits against James Braxton, Herbert Haustetter, Henry Gauter and A.
Bishop, charged them visiting a gam ing house.
The city court affidavits charged
gaming against the four. The reason
for the changing of the charge is because of the heavier penalty which the "visiting a gaming house" statute carries, said Freeman.

Amend Rule 56, Sec. 8, by adding the following sentence: "If a fair hit ball gets through an infielder, and hits a runner immediately back of him, the umpire must not declare the runner out for being hit by a batted ball. In making such decision the umpire must be convinced that the ball passed through the infield and that no other inflelder has the chance to make a play on the ball.

E distribute this same Service to acar owners and to all makes of batteries without discrimination.
When you pay money for a new USL you are buying Golden Rule Service, of which the battery is but an essential part. It's just the same as paying your employees, your lawyer, your doctor, your dentist for Service. Service is the most important thing in the world today. To all car owners, we aim to be the "greatest Servant of them all." Our Golden Rule Service, we think, makes us so. But we invite your careful co-operation in caring for your battery so as to assure you long battery-life.
BETTER HUN CALOMEL Thousands Have Discovered Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets Are a Harmless Substitute
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets are ths result of Dr. Edwards' determination not to treat liver and bowel complaints with calomel. For 17 years he used these tablets (a vegetable compound mixed with ohve oil) in his private practice with great success. They do all the good that calomel does but have no bad after effects. No pains, no griping, no injury to the gums or danger from acid foods yet they stimulate the liver and bowels. Take Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets when you feel "logy" and "heavy." Note how they clear clouded hrain and wrk uo the spirits. 10c and 25c a box.
Often when a man thinks his battery is "done for" and he is ready to buy a new USL, we show how we can save him money by repairing his old battery and giving an adjustment guarantee for eight months.

Keep yo' puton airs an' 'sauced-up" tobaccos for the fellow that likes nut sundaes better than home made pie So says a friend of ours named Velvet Joe. And he just about hits the nail on the head. Velvet is made for men who think there's no smoke like real tobacco. If you are that sort of man, listen: Velvet was born in old Kentucky, whero more than one good thing comes from. It was raised as carefully as any othei Kentucky thoroughbred. But the real secret of Velvet's friendly qualities is its slow natural ageing in ,MDoden hogsheads. Ageing in the wood never hurt anything and least of all, tobacco. And so we say, Velvet is good tobacco nothing more or less. It runs second to none. i The picture of the pipe on the tin needn't keep you from rolling a jim-dandy cigarette with Velvet
