Minne ‘ the Metropolitan Company in 1911, the Meg & 4 Public Servic munission rejected : the plan because it constituted « % Monstrous stock watering deal, The commission declared that $25,000,000 of | the capital was water, but the ocom- mission was powerleas to prevent tho stock watering and under the com mission's protest it was put through But when Mr. Shonts says “In the application of the New York Railways Company for an used fare we have stated the facts fairly and squarely, There can be no doubt as to » justice of our appeal,” I am frank to admit words fail me, It is to laugh; let it go at that, What are the facts? ‘The facts are that many of the sur- face lines are transporting passengers ine for 1 cent or a fraction more, To charge 2 cents additional would be &y outrageous swindle, Take the Sth Street railway for example, ‘Chis road is watered to the limit, Its capitalization is at the rate of $6,400,000 a mile, by long odds the heaviest capitalization of any railroad in the world, this road is earning over 2% per ¢ per an- num on the watered capital at the psent time Were it allowed to charge 2 cents extra fare it would earn 80 per cent. per annum on its watered stock and over 200 per cent. oD an honest capitalization, ‘The full cost of transporting passenger on this road is but nine-tenths of a cent, There is no question about these fig. | ures, They are compiled from the company's sworn statements, And what is true of this road is true of almost every road in the New York Railways Company system. A nt nickel is @ highly protitable fare ‘un- jer honest management and honest lization. And although manage and capitalization have both been dishonest and the lines brought to @ state of ruin, that does not jus- tly a tax of $40,000,000 a year. b'igure it for yourself, Over 2,000,000,000 passeng: are carried yearly on the street car lines of this eit At 2 cents each the total ex- Js $40,000,000. And you ean bet your bottom dollar that if the rail- ways Kot texte amounting to $40,000, cents fare, 00 a year, they would promptly talize them’ for a billion dollars. Mr, Shonts and his master associates anticipate mighty rich financial pickings, and they are taking advantage of the war to cul- minate their plans, ‘ow for the subway and elevated. | he subway paid 20 per cent, divi- | dends on its capital stock last year nd the year before (one-third water) and earned 6 per cent. more, which it carried to surplus. Total, 26 per cent. Whtre 18 the justification for seven cent fares? And the subway com- pany earned the 26 per cent. after it had paid 7 per cent. guaranteed divi+ dends on $60,000,000 of elevated rails road stock, two-thirds of which is water. Were the subway and elevated companies honestly capitalized, their earnin, last year would’ have amounted to over 50 per cent. an gub- | way capital stock.

The Panama Canal is a clear passa as far as the Culebra Cut. But Gold Hill has a way of slipping into the cut. And until dredges can clear the channel, the industrial schedule of the world is out of gear How about your own canal? The intestinal canal is a clear pxssageway as far as the large intestine, There, if you become constipated, waste matter is allowed to stagnate. It becomes unnaturally dry and undergoes abnormal fermentation and putrefaction, Germ activity is increased. Your whole system is out of gear. Result, the production of irritating and poisonous substances, which are absorbed into your blood and carried all over your body, liable to pro- duce disease anywhere The longer such stagnation ts allowed to exist, the harder it is to clean out the canal 90% of human disease onginates in the “Culebra Cut ’” If engineers tried to blast out the slide from Culebra Cut they would have more stides to cope with If you try to blast out accumulated waste from your Culebra Cut with pills, salts or purges, you will increase your constipation—and next time you will have to take stronger medicie in a larger dose, You can’t dredge your canal. ‘You cam clean it out with Nujol Nujol softens the mass, and supplies the intestinal canal with sufficient moisture to replace deficient mucus, It causes the obstructive waste matter to pass gently out of your system at a regular hour, absorbing and removing the poisons as it goes. Nujol regularity keeps the traffic of your mind and body operating on schedule. You admire the Panama Canal system. Why not safeguard your own? Your driggist has Nujol, Warning?
