. Would Abolish Scrlb.
The abolition of the scris system
which requires the purchaae of tickets
' and the only advantage of which la a
email rebate variously computed. Is de
manded by the business men who want
the Interchangeable mileage book now in
' uae on some railroads. The railroad
men on the other hand assert that the
sertp system Is the only one In use
whereby the railroads are safeguarded
at ail. At the request of the railroad
men 10 days additional consideration
were given them - by. the commercial
travelers. ' '
Teaterdays conference was the second
held on this Question, the first having
taken place on May JO. At thaf time
. tha traveling- men asked for J-cent
per mile rate on a B.OOO-mlla book, or a
2H-cent per mile rate on a 1,000-mile
book. In lieu of the present scrip book.
which is sold for 90 per 3.000 miles and
" which orovldes for a refund to the ex
tent of 114.50. ..
At the meetinr resterday the travel
ing men waived their demands for a
2-cenf rrtnlle rate but Insisted on an j
interchangeable mileage book 11 mey
: had to pay 3 cents a mile for It. The
scrip book is only an exchange medium
. used instead of cash to buy tickets.
Traveling men do not like the scrip book
because they have to take their place In
the Una at the ticket window nnd pass
through a lot of. red tape both at the
window and on tha train and this takea
up much of their time. When the book
has , been exhausted the railroad com
pany estimates the rebate and the trav-
, ellng man must accept This Is another
.point of much tenderness ; as it Is
claimed that the estimates are not al
ways fair. There are several minor
objections to the scrip book.
' , Roads Ask Protection.
On the other hand the railroad men
' declare that they are not protected by
the Interchangeable mileage system. In
fact it developed yesterday that an av
erage of 10 per cent of th? mileage sold
was never turned in by ,' conductors.
- Should one company sihl a mileage book
, And It !were used -. mostly on another
company's line, the company selling the
- ticket has a perceptible advantage,
since never Wore than 90 per cent of the
mileage sold Is reported taken up by
" conductors ' The mileage taken on the
train affords the only means of getting
at an adjustment of the refund due the
1 company on whose road tha ticket was
mostly used. ; And this is considered
.... too loose a method by the railroads.
The discussion at . times approached
' dangerously near the bounds of polite
ness on account of the persistency of
'. the two parties. - The railroad commls
sion was present Only In an advisory
capacity and to aid if possible In an
amicable adjustment of the difficulties
" The only concession, that the railroads
would make was to agree to sell a 1,000-
, mile scrip book for (30 Instead of the
? 8,000-mile book for $90.
It Is quite likely, should no agreement
. ba reached at the next meeting, that the
traveling, men's organisations will in-
; . voke the initiative. That Was given as
' the opinion of Commissioner Aitcheson
yesterday, after the meeting. They are
v a strong organization and could affect
; results In that way according to the
railroad ' commissioners. The Wiscon
sin commission mado a very thorough
- Investigation of, the question under the
1 jruidanee of the now Senator LaFoIlette
and their report makes quite a sliable
volume of technical railroading.

I am spending $22,000 in order to advertise "Golden Grain Granules," the pure rich cereal health-coffee, which is
recognized as-the standard of perfection. If properly cocked it has the peculiar flavor of 45-cent Mocha and Java. It is
the young folks' delight it builds them up, it strengthens them and they just love this drink as much as grown-up people.
I want the young folks to have their share of pleasure as vell as health, and that is one reason why I make this offer
through the columns of The Journal, which reaches thousands, of homes in the northwest
Prizes 'will be awarded July ""2nd and the money shall be mailed the
same day The amounts given will range from 10c to $5.00 Every child will
get a prize Any child from Six to Sixteen years of age,, can take part in
this Contest, with the exception of boys who smoke cigarettes.
(Boys who smoke cigarettes do not care for their health and I haye no time nor money for them.)
In awarding the prizes I shall not take the spelling into consideration, as I presume the parents will in many cases
elp making up the letters, but the age of the child, the handwriting and the childish logic will have weight in judging
the merit of every letter. , '

It's a matter of general Interest Just '
now how one's physical condition can '
be got into shape to beat receive the;
benefits of the summer season. Espe
cially is this true of the children. They !
have become, win down by a winter of I
unnatural manner of living because o(
Ill-considered food and much-th e tliircr
spent indoors. Spring comes with Its
sunshine. Us fresh vegetable and ull '

dies. I
Many parents call in the family phy- '
slclan. Many other parents take ad-1
vantage of what the physician told them '
when lie was first called in consult.!-;
tlon. All good family physicians say:
"Give the children Castoiia." Healthy
parents know this remedy of old. for
Ihey took It themselves as children. It;
was more than 30 yearB ago that Cas
torla made a bIhoa fnr lluolf In tha
household. It bore the signature of J B
cnanes. . letcner uten, as it does I
today. The signature is Its guarantee, j
which is accepted In thousands of homes
where there are children. .
Much Is printed nowadays about bid
families. Dr. William J. McCrann ofj
Omaha, Nebraska:'1s the father of one
of these, much-read-about families. Here ;
i
is what he says:
"As the . father of 13 children I "cer-!
talnly know something' about your!
great medicine, and aside from my own !
family experience, I have, in my years
of practice, found' Castorla a popular
and efficient remedy in almost every !
home."
Charles H. Pleteher has received him- i
dreds of letters from prominent physi- j
clans who have the same esteem for
Castorla that Dr. McCrann has. Not
only do these physicians say they uae j
Castorla in their own families, but they
preserve u ror their putlents. First
of all It Is a vegetable preparation
which asBimilate the food and regulates
the stomach and bowels. After eatlntr
comes sleeping, and Castorla looks out
for that too. It allays feverishness
and prevents loss of sleep-, and this
absolutely without the use of opium,
morphine or other baneful narcotic.
MedlCal Journals are reluctant to dis
cuss proprietary medicines. Hall's
Journal of Health, however, says:y"Our
mmj o cAjjwno uiiicr aim record
the means for advancing health. The :
day for poisoning. Innocent children
through greed or Ignorance ought to!
end. To our . knowledge Castorla is a1
remedy which produces composure and 1
health by regulating the system, not by I
stupefying it, and our readers are en-1
utied to vne information.
