J’ii® Central and Atlanta, Birming ham and Atlantic railroads have noti fied the Georgia Railroad Commis sion that on and after Decembed 17 all interchangeable mileage books, good foV transportation wholly with in the State, will be withdrawn, and thereafter only such mileage books ns are sold bj' the individual roads, good for travel on those roads alone, will be offered. The Central will issue strictly in trastate mileage at the present price of 2 cent.* per mile, good only on tjie Central, while the A., B. & A. will confine its sales to intrastate penny script, good only under the same regulations. The railroads, therefore, apparently have “gone the limit” in restricting mileage use in Georgia, under the terms of the State Commission’s or der, and the question now arises whether the roads, in withdrawing interchangeable mileage, good who'ly within the State, have not- violated a Commission order that may pre cipitate further litigation by the trav eling men. Ignore Regulations. There is a regulation which says that no facility, once having "ben granted by the railroads, whether a oluntarily or otherwise, shall be withdrawn without the Commission's permission. This permission neither the Central nor the A., B. &. A. has secured of asked for. Chairman Murphey Candler, in ren dering a dissenting opinion to the Commission's original order, which order subsequently was upheld by the Supreme Court, sets forth as one of his reasons for opposing the order at the time the fear that the very thing would happen which has happened— that is, the complete withdrawal in Georgia of all interchangeable mile age. good wholly within the State. As the situation now shapes itself, traveling men in Georgia must use for transportation wholly within Georgia a separate mileage book for every road, no matter how short or long, used in traveling. They will have to carry two or three dozen mileage books, and must tie up hun dreds of dollars, where before they had only to tie up from $25 to $50. Other Roads Likely to Follow. And even Individual mileage books, good only in Georgia, must be used in cities of over 10,COO under the old exchange system, which p ovldes that the strips must be taken up tit the ticket windows and trip tickets given by the agents therefor. All mileage books sold before D?- j cember 17 will lx honored under the present regulations, but books se cured after that date must bemused under the now. Presumably the other roads of the State will follow the lead of the Cen tral and the A., P & A., and it is regarded as practically certain that tlie traveling men will now ask that the legality of the railroads’ position be tested before the Commission, aud in the courts, if necessary, as to whether the roads have the right to withdraw State interchangeable mile age without the State 'Commission'^ consent. $1,501,547,150 Paper Money Made in 1913 WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.—Direct or Ralph, of the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, in his annual report to day announced that tne work deliv ered by the bureau during the past year comprised United States notes, United States bonds and national bank notes totaling in value $1,501,- 517,150. Cardinal Oreglia Is Laid to Rest in Rome Squad’’ Leader Recommended for Promotion. J. A. Hollis, ranking as a patrol man until a feu hours before Wed nesday, was appointed head of At lanta’s “vice squad” to replace J. W. Barfield, whose removal and demo tion created a sensation at Thursday night's meeting of the Police Board. As Chief Beavers’ right-hand man in the war on evil resorts, BarfleUi had made a reputation that led many to believe that he would be promoted to a sergeant by the board. His dis missal trom the leadership of the vice squad, therefore, was the more surprising and was the chief topic of conversation Wednesday in police circles. Barfield was nominated and rec ommended as sergeant by Chief Beavers and tne action of the Police Board was in direct opposition to his expressed wishes. Hollis, however, was named as second choice by the Chief and was elected a sergeant without dissent, being appointed head of the “vice squad” Wednesday fore noon. Barfield in the future will rank as a patrolman. The flghr against him was waged by Chairman Mason, of the Police Board, who told his fol low-members that he was forced to oppose the vice squad head because of many reports of dissension that had corne to him. Tie had understood that the men working under Barfield were dissatisfied with his adminis tration and that much discord had resulted. At the same time he named Bar- field for sergeant, Chief Reavers made the same recommendation in behhif of Alfred D. Duck and George A. Maddox, roundsmen. Duck and Mad dox were elected. Barfield’s name was rejected by a vote of 8 to 2. Commissioners Smith, Vernoy and Garner cast the favorable votes. Hol lis then was named by Beavers In place of Barfield and was chosen without opposition. The three ser geants will begin their new duties at once. The election of the three sergeants followed action by the Police Board some time ago to abolish the posi tion of roundsman. Barfield. Buck and Maddox, because of their posi tions as roundsmen, were consid ered in line for promotion, but a few days before the board meeting there were well authenticated reports of a strong fight being made against Bar- field. Barfield has been long in the po lice service and was made a mem ber of the “vice squad" at its or ganization.

Chamberlin-Johnson-DiiBose Co. ATLANTA NEW YORK PARIS La Vida A Corset That Harmonizes With Present-Day Fashions The new models of La Vida Corsets are fine! The makers seem to have caught the underlying idea of the new fashions and have, with remarkable accuracy, evolved corsets that fit in, that dove-tail with tiie new fashions. \\ e hear a great deal about tiie new silhouette, the new uncorseted figure; we hear a great deal more than we find when we come to getting the corset that really lends itself helpfully to the un- corseted figure. But the La Vida people have built these “free and easy” corsets so success fully that we can recommend them to our patrons with the confidence that we shall be doing them a service. La Vida Corsets are right in detail; the result of thorough corset knowledge working in harmony with the style arbiters. However these points, the details that make La Vida Corsets a success are hard to put into words; there are no de- seribable tricks about the fashioning of them; rather a woman likes and appre ciates a La Vida AFTER she has tried one on. Then she comes to realize that in some * unusual way it fits and con forms and imparts to her figure that sil-r liouette she would acquire. Let’s say again, that it is the result of thorough corset knowledge that goes into the making of every La Vida. Right now—to the end of this week— Mrs. Marvin, An Expert Corsetiere, Is Here demonstrating La Vidas, and women may well look upon her demonstration as an opportunity. She “knows how” and she lias the corsets here to Tit you as you and the fashions say you should Ik* fitted. These are some of the models she uses. The variety'shows that any woman will be fitted in the model right for her. At $5.00, a brocaded corset for the medium figure. Not an extreme line in it, and one of the most favored models for that reason. Low bust, medium long skirt. At $5.00, a coutil corset for the tall, slender figure. Elastic front gore, soft boning, long in the back; but the bon ing in the back conforms to the figure when sitting—a fact worth noting. At $5.00, a soft coutil corset for the medium and slender figure; free hips, "boneless"—splendid for the dancers. One and one-half-inch bust, long back. The same model at $4.50 and $3.50. At $8.50, an extra long imported coutil corset for the medium figure that requires a bit heavier than the ordinary- corset; elastic gored back, elastic lacings over the abdomen. The same in a grade at $6.50. At $8.50, a broche corset for the me dium figure; free hip, low bust, extra long back. At $9.00, an imported coutil corset for the medium or large figure—of superb lines—long back and full hips, elastic lacings in front. It Would Seem That Everyone Will Get Chamberlin-Johnson-DuBose Co. Handkerchiefs There* is certainly every reason why those who give handkerchiefs should give Chamber- lin-Johnson-1 )uBose Company handkerchiefs. Take the stock, box by box, front one end of the long counter (they occupy extra space for the ('hristmas season) to the other, the values are finest. We have what we eall very happy connections over in Handkerchief Isle that make it possible for us to sell these little lots of linen at lower prices than we could did we have to depend upon those who buy their handkerchiefs through New York. And, judg ing by tin- crowds that hover around the hand kerchief section, this seems to be pretty well understood. It does not take a woman long to discover where the prettiest things are! Prices begin at 10c for all-linen handker chiefs—the men’s size is 18 inches square! Then come corner embroidered handker chiefs for women at 15c. And initialed hand kerchiefs—and the big world of novelties at 25c. < Hove handkerchiefs, unique embroidery- designs without end. initials done with as much care and neatness as if they were made by those who will give them—and the Christ inas boxes (of four different designs 1 , at $1.00! Yon will enjoy choosing from such a varietv. Two particular ly bright and interesting spots right now are the neckwear section and the jewelry and leather goods section. In the neckwear are some attractive gift boxes that are coming in for great favor--- it may be a tie, a bow, a collar, a set, and it my be found for as little as 50c or as much as $10.00. Every one is “gifty.* ’ In the jewelry and leather goods there is an infinite variety of novelties— vanities, pencils, broaches, hair ornaments, beads, shoe buckles, desk sets, traveling cases, collar bags, drinking cups— the list grows longer as we name it. Let a visit show what we have gathered for you. Chamberlin=Jolinson=DuBose Company
