The lat- ter, 800 feet long over ail, is one of the two turbine vessels laid down by the Cunard ine with financial assistance from the British Government, and was pupposed to be the final achlevement in ship building. ‘A vessel 800 feet long presents dim~- oulties scarcely dreamed of five years ago, yet one man then, as now, in the public service in New York, dreamed and dared so far ahead that in 1997 he had drawn plans for piers which should length. That man, John A. Beneel, then Engineer-in-Chief of the Department of Docks and Ferries, now Commission- modestly asked for $14,000,000 to com- plete work then projected to-day he asks for $21,000,000, largely for work even then thought of but looked upon ‘as too distant for immediate constdera- tlon. When an Evening World reporter asked Mr. Bensel what he thought of the rumored White Star ship more than 800 feet long, he looked up in surprise end sald: “T haven't thought of it, and for good reason, because I've never heard of puch a@ thing. It seems as though I must know if such a project were under was” New Vessels Gigantic. At the White Star line offices, while {t was stated that they had no figures showing the size of the new ships un- der construction, it was admitted that ships are being built and that they are to be exceptional in many ways. “But,” sald Mr. Lee, the secretary, “I am afraid that if we should get ves. gels 90 feet long there would be serious diMoulty in bringing them up the pres- emt narrow channel and to the smali docks. Indeed, I am evre that even if such @ monster could be navigated into New York it would have to be under most favorable circumstances." Mr. Lee left out of consideration the mew Ambrose Channel, which will be 2,000 feet wide and forty feet deep. | “Would that indicate that as occan | Mners increase in size and displacement until the average is something like the ‘The White Star line is believed to er, has Ilved to sce these plers near- | ing completion, but where tn 192 he | Plans in the second place the trans-Atlantic passenger service has to be courted, just ilke any other commercial enterprise, and the American people never wouhl be willing to undergo the discomforts of a |long railway and ferry trip from their hotels or houses to docks at a distance. | Competition f@ such that we have to | fight to win our patrons and make them |comfortable.

In 1870, when the “Board of Dosks and Ferries’ was created, there was talk for iclpalization, but !t was 18% be- fore any land was bought, and by then become go valuable that $100,000,000 was estimated as the probable cost of com- plete public ownership and improve- ment of the city’s docks.

The first object of this co-operative company was to produce a line of remedies that every druggist would know thoroughly. There were to be no secret formulas; the ingredients of every remedy would be known to every druggist. Each of these thou- sand druggists contrib- uted to the organization all that his knowledge and experience had brought to him in the way of advice as to dif- ferent remedies. The formulas of something like 2,000 or more rem- edies were sent to the company A committee of experts was appointed and this committee went over the various formu- las conscientiously and aapes for a long period of time and select- ed from the entire list about 200 standard rem- edies, the manufacture of which the company then undertook. The company in the meantime had erected a perfect laboratory — large, well-appointed, with every appliance known to modern skill. The combined capital of a thousand druggists made it possible for the company to purchase in the largest quantities the fundamental drugs IN NEW YORK—Sth Ay. and IN BROOKLYN Fulton ‘St. cor.

And through World Wants | Changed things about, icine History and herbs, etc., that form the ingredients of the various remedies. This meant not only the highest quality in manufacture, but the very greatest economy— the cutting out of every wasteful item and every unnecessary expense. The remedies when manufactured were ship- le directly from the boratory to the retail druggists. This insured their freshness and made it impossible for their quality to deteriorate. Not only that, but it also did away with the job- bers’ profit. Here again the co-operative system added not only quality but brought about econ- omy, Most of our patrons are familiar with these facts. Most of them are already acquainted with the form of Rexall Remedies which are manufactured by the United Drug Co., with laboratory and principal offices in Boston, Mass. These are the remedies and this is the co-oper- ative company that we believe has done more to bring about a change in patent medicine condi- tions than any other element in existence. Each of the Rexall druggists knows abso- lutely what each Rexall remedy contains. He has the formula of each remedy on file in his safe, He will gladly give it to anyone who is inter- ested. There is nothing secret about any of the Rexall formulas. On the contrary, we are fROrSuE Ly proud of them. ‘¢ want you to know about them.
