NOT SHOCKED BY
FOR J'VILLE R. R.
1 . . i ' f . V . -
Afloi paKHlriK a nitnibcr of rou
tine orUtnimccu- confirming recent
buIcb of city lots --to-'vm-lous imll
vUiuulH unci consltU'rlui; other busi
ness at its meetlnK luat -nlKht, I ho
city council organized a municipal'
railroad company to theoretkally
take over the operation of the old
Modford'JaekHonvJIle railroad, whoso
technical hilnitt is the .Medford ' and
Const railroad, or - something, liko
that, which was recently purchased
hy the city admlrflHtratinn.
This move was made to comply
with the legal requirements nccea-,
t-ary to the city administration's plan
lo-keeu tho road ulivaus an qaton-j
Kibly koIiik concern until such time
in -the futuro when a. possible pur
ihnner is found. to operate it In cun-j
ncction with tapping -the timber and ,
lnliierul. resources of the Applcguto
section. . 1 . . r ; : J
The suggestion nt last night's
meeting thut tbo now railroad .com-1
patty of city officials be known us
a holding? "copperutlon" 1 in view of
the fact that it may eventually tup
the Hlue-Ledge mine ' output, was
speedily frowned down by the coun
Vilmen wua airy pcrslflugc.
Then the ;8prliusly ' minded coun
cilmen unanimously voted themselves
it tho board of .directors of the city
holding company, - with 'a view to,
traveling over the Southern J'aclfic,
and other railroads tt the country
on pusses, ' announced that the new
compnny was ready frbm now on to
oxchango thc usual courtesies with
the other railroads. Fair enuff!
The new-city railroad was organ
ized with a number of amendments,
relating to titles of officials, but us
near as could bo fathomed out of
the mass of new legislation, it has
only tjie following- bona fide offic
ials: Mayor O. O. Alenderfer, presi
dent: City Attorney John- H. Cnrkin,
secretary; City- Superintendent Chas.
W Iavis, gcnerul manager; members
ot the .council, . bourd of directors.
An amendment or two made tho
mayor us also the general truffle
manager; City Keoordor M ose , A1
ford,. as secretary and first vice
president;' the, city attorney us ulso
general counsel, nnd the city super
intendent as also general passonger
t;nd freight traffic manager. i
Another .legal, requirement that is
necessitated -iri order that tho city,
muy hold this roud, us planned,, is
that every sixty days an engine must
be , opernted over the lino between
here und Jacksonville, to show tho
world that It is a going concern.
This requirement is being given
very serious thought by the city
officials, as to the best way to k fill
It. The one engtno' in tho remain
ing equipment of the road purchased
by the city administration. Is In good
operating, condition for such a Jour-
ney of- serious import, Uut engine
fuel and oil cost so much und then
the city has no engineer; ,
To su vo money tho city officials
have under consideration a plan to
have thut public spirited body, tho
Crater club, push -tho'' engine over)
and buck 1 on tho track every 60
days, to shouts of encouragement
from tho Uoturinns, Kiwnnians and
L.inns running alongside.
General Manager Davis, In looking
over the itemized items of the road
and equipment, us purchased, finds
(hut many , tools have been swiped
by, ovll minded citizens of Medford
and the county seat while the sale
was pending, or1 before, and that
much of tho rolling' equipment has
been damaged, and about all that is
left in fair condition Is the cngino
und several flat -cars.
In Its purchase tho city also
arquired ' several - parcels of real
estate in Jacksonville, including the I
old llurnum homo . in Jacksonville,
nnd tho passenger and freight depots
In tho county seat, from which the
city Is already getting revenue, as
tho dwelling la rented foX Mo a
month und a contractor rents tho
freight shed, for the sumo sum per
month. , ,1 ' ' 1 . ;
PARIS. Nov. 18. (A. P.) "The
virtue of a, woman has never depend
ed on tho longth of her hair," aid
Muiisignor Dubois, ' cardinal arch
bishop of Paris, when uskod his opin
ion on bobbed hair.
"lteligion Is no enemy of fashion,"
the prelate lidded. "Fashion is- tho
mom widespread form of art, und
Clod is the friend of truo nrtlsts. I
loved tho fashions of bygono days,
and the decorous charm of harmoni
ously flowing draperies still appeals
to me. Hut we must recognize that
we have got past flowing draperies.
Today is tho day of boldly cut low
necked gowns, of too flimsy materials,
of delicate stockings and too unsub
stantial footwear.
"Then there Is this mania some
young women have of making them
selves masculine! A woman loses
much in wishing to resemble a man.
All these excenses are to bo blamed.
thut is certain, but excess in tho op
posite direction Is just us blame
worthy, l'lease. Hod, no archbishop
of Paris will ever forbid the women of
Paris to follow the fashions, with
tact, moderation nnd intelligence!
They have so much Intelligence, or
rather good taste,. generally, that they
are capable of wearing and making
me admit -it, even somewhat short
skirts!"
This authorization, if .not consecra
tion of short hair and skirts, with its
marked absence of disapproval, has
been hailed in Paris um another fem
inist victory und as having been
meant to dispel tho belief -that ecclesi
astical authorities were opposed to
theso latest expressions of woman's
will.

All too often women nccept their

kidneys aro often to blame for that
backache, those headaches,, dizzy
spells nnd that tired, depressed feel

'case Is one of many.
Mrs. A. K. Dodge, 242 S. Holly Kt
'says: "I am glad to say a good word
for Doan's Pills, us they have given
me splendid results. My kidneys were
.weak and I was run down and ner
vous. I tired easily and was often
unublo to do my housework, as my
buck ached us If it were broken. I
also had dizzy spells and my feet und
ankles swelled. Doan's Pilfs soon
strengthened my kidneys and all he
