Willlams declared at a Lenten service attended largely by soclety women yesterday that they were to blame for the downfall of girls employed in big department stores. Bishop Willlams said: “A poor girl goes to the city and begins to work in a department store managed by a Christian man. Her wages are about $4 a week. She cannot support herself on that. Then there comes the sugges- tlon—and I have heard it backed up by the words of the so-called Christian employer—that there are other things that she can do. “Who is responsible? You, my sister. The day of judgment will be a day of | surprises for you. You will perhaps find yourself wearing the brand of shame on your brow that now seems so fair—not because of wrong that you have done, but because by your unholy lust for bargains you have made conditions such that your less | fortunate sister is crushed to the mud of the pavements.” Dr.Holsman & Co. 1807 Fillmore Corner Sutter R $7.50 No Pay Unless Cured| A LIFE-LONG CURE FOR Blood Poison, Skin Diseases, Sores, Ul- cers, Stricture, Varicocele, Hydrocel Nervous Decline, Weaka: es or Chronic Diseases of the Kidneys and Prostate.

Here is what Vice President Buckland of that railroad says regarding the matter: |“We are acting on the belief that all the great trunk lines in this country will eventually be operated by elec- tricity.” The Chicago-New York Electric Alr Line Rallroad is the most practical, the most sensible, the most profitable and the safest investment that will be of- fered to the American people in years and vears. It is not often that the general public. gets a “ground floor” chance in a raliroad investment.

Here is what the Chicagew | Examiner says: | , “Cassatt discovered that it is better for a railroad to build its tracks in a straight line than in a crooked on Thix revelation, simple as it was, was as far reaching in the railroad world as Napoleon’s conception of cannom was in the world of war. Cassatt, look- ing into the future, would say: ‘The straight line’ wins always.’ ” “That is what we have been saying all along. The straight line wi: The Electric Air Line will win. thout an unnecessary curve, without .a grade crossing, with a_perfect roadbed and equipment, it will do more than send its trains through the choicest part of the United- States from Chicago to |New York in ten hours.

CITY OF GARY LOCATES RIGHT ON THE AIR LINE The building of the town of Gary, Ind., the United States Steel Corpora- tion’s new center of activity, will be an important contributor to the reve- nue of the Air Line as soon as the La- orte section is in operation. The Air ine runs directly through thé town, which within a short time will em- brace a population of several hundred thousand, and as the service will be altogether superior to that of other lines, the Air Line will naturally get the bulk of the business. the new town originally embraced 4000 Oae of the Hundred-Mile-an-Hour Electric Engines That Will Take a Train to New York in 10 Hours TEAR OFF—FILL IN—M L 2 26 25 2R 2% 2% 2 2% 2R J Southwestern Securiti WESTERN AGENTS \ 195 to 202 Deibert Block, 943 Van Ness Ave, San Franciscoy| 515 te 516 Central Bank Building, Oakla: Inclosed find § partial) payment for.

INVESTORS IN THE CHICAGO-NEW YORK ELECTRIC DO NOT PAY FOR WATERED STOCK The steam railroads of the United ;States seem to be “between the devil |and the deep sea,” to use a phrase which has become classical. On the | one hand they are confronted with an for increased transportation facilities. On the other hand, they are face to face with the difficulty of securing the necessary cash to meet the heavy ex- penditures involved. The earnings of American railroads are very great. An expert reporting to President Roose- ]velt says the tariff charges can be cut 10 per cent without affecting dividends. | Their assets are enormous. At first glance it would seem a simple matter | for them to raise milllons, and it has been in the past. The difficulty lies in the fact that they are already “mort- gaged up to the handle.” railroad is about the only thing ‘which can be mortgaged for more than its cost. According to the prevailing system, nearly every railroad in the land has been built, equjpped and im- proved through a sale of first mortgage bonds. The stock Shares represent so much “water.” (l'he fact that they are worth_ anything emphasizes the won- derful earning power of a well-man- aged railroad. These rallroads have is- Sued bonds.until they have nothing left to mortgage. They have little or noth- ing to offer in the way of security, and Feople who have money to invest or end insist upon security. 7 I am interested in down and the “entire be issued. fedecresacand B B N R R AR TEAR OFF—FILL IN—MAIL TODAY L R AL S 20 S B S I i R SR 2 K S SR AR S INFORMATION COUPON | Southwestern Securities Co.

They want to know that the road’s earnings will ‘be sufficient to meet the interest on the loan. What are the facts, here at a time when an enormous expansion of fa- cilitles {s urgent? As has been stated, nearly every railroad already has been bonded for ‘every dollar that could be raised. - The surplus earnings, after gaylng the heavy interest charges and igh operating expenses, have been dis- sipated among the stockholders in the shape of dividends and “melons.”” Now when they are confronted with an emergency, the railroads find them- selves so heavily capitalized and bond- ed that they have nothing to offer the money lender in the way of ditional security. In their embarrassment they are re- sorting to desperate methods. Because of the urgent public necessity, growing out of our developing commenrce, they are trying to get the President of the United States to “pull their chestunts out of the fire.” By unjustly charging him with hostility to the railroad in- terests they hope to move him to issue a special message to Congress, or state- ment to the people, explaining his po- sition and voicing the unquestioned need of the country for increased trans- portation facilities. Armed with this document the rallroads think that they ‘will be able to go before the public with an argument which will unloose all purse-strings.
