Passenger train service in the West will be re duced one-third or more by a rear rangement of schedules to be announced shortly by Director-General McAdoo. Scores of trains on competing lines leaving and arriving at terminals about the same time will be eliminated. Un necessary trains on many Western lines are to be taken o(T and the locomotives and crews used for essential freight service. There is no thought, however, of mak ing a few Western lines the principal passenger carriers as contemplated in the East. Officials also stated that the reduction In schedules will not re sult in any serious inconvenience to passengers. The curtailment, which has been under consideration for- several weeks by Gerril Fort, passenger traffic direc tor for the Railroad Administration, will be effective from the Mississippi River to the Pacific Coast. In much of this territory traffic is comparatively light and by a reduction of the number of trains Railroad Administration offi cials believe they can save many mil lions of dollars and still provide ample facilities for all through travel to the Coast. SAN FRANCISCO, March J. Further reduction of train service, ordered to day by Director-General McAdoo, prob ably will take the form of lengthening present schedules, it was said at the offices here of the Southern Paclnc Company. No serious disruption of ac commodations was expected. LOUISVILLE, Ky., March 2.

I have been asked times without number why I continually advertise when my practice is now unquestionably the largest in the state and my offices always busy. I have had it insinuated that I Was selfish even avaricious when I still made efforts to secure more patients. x For the benefit of my legion of friends and patients who ask this question in a spirit of friendship and equally for my critics, who sneeringly inquire why I find it necessary to continue my advertising . I wish to say: I have my share of adversity I am intensely human I, like others, want to acquire that which requires effort, pluck, ingenuity honesty, skill and "stick-to-it-iveness"; namely, the good will of PEOPLE WHO WONT BELIEVE IN ME AND PEOPLE WHO DONT BELIEVE IN ME.

That unnecessary pain in Dental operations is entirely eliminated by my system of local anesthesia. That this office is a model of sanitation and my operators need not suffer by comparison with any like number of Dentists anywhere.
