CASTOR IA For Infants and Children Tlie Kind You Have Always Bought Sears the Signature of Realizing the far-reaching Importanca of the demurrage question, Its Import alike to shipper and carrier, and with the dealre to formulate the soundest, safest and moat equitable rules possi ble. Commissioner H. Warner Hill, of the Oeorgla railroad commission, at tended the conference of railroad com missioners from all over the country In Washington October 8. Commissioner Hill Went aa the ac credited representative of the Oeorgla commission. He Is perfectly familiar with the rules under which the com' mission has been working, and more, over has been and Is a close student of this question. Commissioner Hill returned from Washington Monday prepared to give his fellow-commis sioners the benefit of facts and Ideas obtained In that conference, demurrage being the matter most discussed. Few recognize how much Is Involved In this one word, "demurrage.” To the ordinary person, who does not have to do with It, the question means noth ing. But demurrage does concern very vitally large shippers and the rail' roads—and. of course. Indirectly thoU' sands of Individuals. There are three kinds of demurrage, each Involving separate and distinct questions, yet closely Inter-related. So much Is Involved in these threo propos sltlons, so delicate are some of the IS' sues concerned, and eo difficult Is I to arrive at exact Justice between all parties concerned, that it Is not a thing to be set forth and fixed In definite rules without profound research and thought. First, there Is direct demurrage. Un der existing rules, when a car of gpods Is placed on a siding or track for a consignee It must bo unloaded within forty-eight hours. If this Is not done the consignee Is penalised 31 per day for every day over that time. Aa a general proposition, there _ no objection to this rule, though there may be Individual Instances of where It works a hardship. But It la recog nised that without some kind of fine or penalty for holding cam longer than a fixed time It would result In serious congestion of traffic, and hamper the carriers In the expeditious handling of the business of the country. Second, there Is demurrage In tram alt, to which the railroads Interpose most serious obectlnn under existing rules In Georgia. The Oeorgla rail road commission requires freight to be moved at a speed of BO miles per day. To Illustrate Its effect: An Atlanta firm ships a car load of goods to a point within the state two hundred miles distant from the point of origin. Under the rules, it must be delivered to Its destination In four days. For ev. ery day over that time the railroads must pay demurrage of 31 per day. Railroad men are a unit In contend Ing that the speed per day required In Oeorgla for moving freight Is unreason ably high. In support of this conten tlon they advance the fact that by ac tual computation the rate at which freight moves throughout the United States la 24 1-2 miles per day. They ask, therefore, that the Oeorgla commission cut the requirement to not exceeding 23 miles per day. The Central has proven by figures that Its dally average Is only 19 miles per day, and one or two other Impor tant lines 21 miles. With the whole desire of preserving exact Justice be tween all parties, and at the same time stimulate the movement of traffic, the commission Is giving this feature of de murrage especial thought. Third, there Is reciprocal demurrage, a matter In the proper and Just adjust ment of which experts the country over have given much study and attention. The carriers are strongly against this rule also, and ask for Its complete re sclndlng. Reciprocal demurrage operates os follows: When a shipper applies for a car or cars to be delivered at a given point on a given date, the railroads are allowed four days within which to com ply. A penalty of |1 per day per car for every day thereaftsr Is levied upon the carrier. One fertiliser factor)' In the elate now has demurrage claims aggregating 12,100 pending against a railroad under this rule. This claim represents one season. - The railroads say that this rule Is very unjust and works a grave Injus tice upon them. It le said to work an especial hardship on short lines, whose rolling stock la limited. The carriers say that It la to their Interests to furnish cars when demand, ed, but often It la a physical Imposst blllty for them to do so as quickly as desired. To penalise them, they say, for failure to do something that Is pat ently their Interest to do, but which may be an Impossibility, can not be founded In Justice. Chairman McLendon Is giving the closest study to these big problems, ns are all the commissioners. In speaking of the question of demurrage Chair man McLendon said: "It Is a question upon which the big gest and best brains of the country aro engaged. Demurrage and sane and Just rules for tho same Is not only a problem with us, but It Is with almost every other state. There are so many points Involved, so many delicate ques tions of right arising, that we can not afford to promulgate haaty and per haps Ill-advised rules and regulations. "Demurrage In Oeorgla, as regulated under the railroad commission, does not take away the right for civil action In the courts for damages arising to Interested parties. Demurrage Is In tended In Its basic principles to stlmu- A Liltls Excursion Into tke Domain of the^GarmSht Beautiful )) Atlanta’s Handsomest ?

Maier & Berkele SomSQhe has given a very clever and illuminating description of the "degrees of the drsss. It runs something liks this: “Firstly, the Frock, then, in rising sequence, the Dress, the Gown, and the Creation. ' ‘‘The Frock is made by the home seamstress, or ‘an awfully inexpensive little woman around the cor ner.’ It is of the simpler materials. It is only for morning wear, and its proper attributes are neatness and comfort. “The Dress is a thought more elaborate than the Frock. We wear it when we go to see our less-distin guished relatives, and when we attend church sewing societies, charity boards and the like. It is invariably made of serviceable material, and fills a niche of its own in the wardrobe, marking the difference between Duty and Pleasure. The Dress, while it never offends by its presence, never makes a triumphal entry, or causes heart-burnings of envy among Its wearer’s friends. “The Gown—now here is a marked rise in the sartorial scale. The Gown is a blending of the frivolous and the dignified. It has a box to itself, and we tuck tissue paper into its sleeves when we put it away. It breathes of bridge whist, of afternoon teas, of luncheons at smart restaurants, and we checked payment for it out of our own private account lest Mr. Man should call us extravagant. r “But the Creation! To the most of us it comes but once or twice in a lifetime. Imported—oh, la la, cer- tainement,—with ruedelapaixian art in every puff and frill. Even the consented wearer of the Frock recog nizes the Creation afar off, and bows before its majesty of line, its symphony of color. In the Creation we may see the Sartorial Entity, the Aristocrat, the Exclusive, the Confection, the Grande Toilette. It can only he evolved by an artist, and that artist must be horn to his art.’’ 1 All of which is vsry charming and suggestive. Read it aloud if ysu wish.

The "Garment Beautiful.” Here it is in all its glory of radiant color, fine "lines,” modish trimming and correct style. New York and Paris are at your doors, so to speak.

Evening Ceats Drsssy Suits • TailoredGowns Imported Blouses In all the light colors- cream, champagne, blue, pink, and so on—are these smart coats. Most of them have the Mandarin sleeve and that loose Japanese-y effect at once so graceful and desirable, since it does not muss your gown and is de lightfully easy to slip on. These are effectively trim med—some with velvet, oth ers with lace. Stunning things. And at moderate price. This is a strong point in this line. Twenty-Five to Sixty-Five Dollars The kind of suit you can wear to church or to a recep tion with equally good taste. Exceedingly smart lines, whether cut on the short model dear to so many wom en, or in the long redingote. The colors are what you might class as “light”—Co penhagen blue, gray, cham pagne, cream, medium blues, S reens, russet and plum, lack, of course. The material is light weight broadcloth—always a dressy stuff. Twsnty-Five to Ssventy-Fivs Dollars “Severe,” you’d probably call these. The kind of gown that no tasteful woman of today is willing to dispense with. The kind with which to wear suutrt walking boots, immaculate blouse, simple hat, and very good glove3. Get the idea? Strictly tail ored. In three lengths—30, 36 and 42-inch coats. Beau ties. All the desirable colors. Twenty-Five to Sixty Ddlars About twenty-five exclu sive models compose this rich line. Cream, white and ecru nets predominate, en riched exquisitely with laces Frenchily applied. Then there are some of the soft serviceable Messaline, also lace-trimmed.

To do this It Is necessary to penalise after the ex piration of a reasonable-lapee of time, fixed rules to shape and mold such fixed rulee to accomplish this without Injustice to any concerned. Is a pretty big question. "I believe I am safe In saying that before this commission promulgates its new rules, we will have given as much OCTOBER NUMBER WATSON’S MAGAZINE ON ALL NEWS STANDS. research and thought to the subject as anybody In the country. It Is our de sire to formulate as nearly perfect reg. ulatlons as It Is possible for human In telligence to do so" During this week the commission will In executive session begin the drafting of the new demurrage rules: It may take them some time, for every point U being carefully considered, but when Issued the regulations will be the moet carefully digested work of a very strong body of men.
