Ho aid also that a few days before the opening ot the tube under the East River there was a meeting ot the board ot directors of the Interborough, and each man gave an estimate as to how many passengers the tube would carry a day for the first six months. The highest guess was 60,000, and as a matter ot fact, within the first ten days the number was 198,000 people.

It's very nice to talk about the tired business man coming from work, but there are a bunch of young and old women coming from work much more tired than they are and less able to stand it. And it is not mm only in the evening, but In the morning, going to work, that women are treated today with the same lack of chivalry.

It is absurd." "How do you stand In the matter of giving up your seat to Suffragists? Do you take them at their word when they say they want to be considered on an equal footing with men?" "No. A woman is a woman to me whatever her fancies or beliefs. They cannot make any less a woman, and I give up my seat as willing to a Suffragist as to an I take pleasure, as do all men, in treating women with every courtesy." Dr. Warren Simmons said he always scrutinizes a woman's lace to determine whether or not she is more tired than he, in which case he gladly gives up his seat to her. "Of course," he supplemented, "if she is nn elderly woman or has a child, I dispense with any further consideration and offer my seat at once.

I have a profound respect for women, and endeavor always to treat them with courtesy, but do not see any adequate reason why an elderly man who is tired should feel called upon to give un his lsh, selfish, brutal race.

Rich, Pure and Wholesome WHEN YOU ARE "RUN-DOWN" At the first signs of warm weather, "spring-fever," poor appetites, pale, sallow, pimply faces and that tired, drowsy, overworked feeling remind us of the urgent need of taking preventive measures to ward off sickness and give us energy and good health. At this season of the year no one should neglect taking a good tonic to purify tho blood and build up the body with strength and energy.

No better tonic can be had than the good old-fashioned one made at home at small cost by dissolving an ounce of kardene (which you can obtain at any drug store) in one-half pint alcohol, adding one-half cupful sugar and hot water to make a full quart. A tablespoonful before each meal will do wonders for those who feel "all gone" after the strain of winter or who feel sick and yet don't know just what's the matter.

After rinsing, the hair dries quickly and evenly and the scalp is Immaculately clean. Continued using restores the natural color and softness to the hair and encourages an nhundant and healthy growth.

WHEN AGE-MARKS APPEAR The secret of a youthful, satiny complexion is yours If you use a plain spurmax face-lotion, easily made at home by stirring two teaspoonfuls glycerine in a half-pint hot water or witch hazel, then adding four ounces spurmax. Apply the lotion sparingly to face, neck and arms and rub lightly until dry. Using a few times rids the skin of impurities, banishes lines and oiliness and makes a rough skin soft and velvety. Continued using insures a youthful charm to any complexion. The spurmax face-lotion cannot be detected when on as it seems part of the skin, nor does it rub off or spot like powder.
