ed a number of concessions Involving
changes in the ratings as originally
contained in the schedules promulgated
on June 1. The new ratings have Just
become effective and are the only re
sponse so far mado to the shippers'
protests.
The most Important change, perhaps.
Is in respect to the rule In southern
classifications Nos. Si and 27. that pro
hibited the acceptance by southern lines
of shipments packed In so-called fibre
packing cases. The southern roads
originally refused absolutely to accept
such cases for shipment, but have now
followed the example of the trunk line
roads and agreed to accept them, but
impose an additional rate, the same as
do the trunk lines. On behalf of Its
members the Merchants Association of
New York strongly protested against
the tand at first t&kea by the South
em road i in this matter.
In addition to this concession, beans,
n. o. a., dried In barrels or sacks, art
reduced from second to fourth-class In
less than carload lots. A reduction of
one class has also been made in le
than carload and In carload lots of
ale. beer and rorter. This makes car
load rates on beer lower than ever be
fore in southern territory, and restores
the less than carload In the original
rating. The rates on coffee, ammonia,
salrratus and axle grease have been
reduced, but rates on edible nuts are
advanced.

Hon to Christianity.
"There are bOO.tH'O.A'O of my country
men. said Ho Vow. "They are In
creasing In vast numbers. They are
quick to learn and. taking these facts
Into consideration, what would happen
If the white race succeeded In forcing
Its civilisation and It knowledge upon

tion should wish to force its religion
upon another.

The Itching and burning I inllered In my feet and limbs for three yeari
were terrible. At night they were worse and would keep me awake a

doctors knew what the trouble wan. I got a lot of the different Minnies of
the medicine I had been using. I found them of so many different kinds
that I concluded I would have to go to a Clnclunatl hospital before I would
get relief. I had frequently been urged to try CTTICl'KA REMEDIES,
but I had no faith In them. My wife finally prevailed upon me to try them.
Presto! What a change l I am now cured, and It la a permanent cure. I
feel like kicking some doctor or myself for iuflering three year when I
could have used CUTICURA remedlea. II. JENKINS, Mlddleboro, Ky.
