The suit is unique in that n judg ment is being asked iguiust the striking rniplovcs for financial losses caused by the alleged contract breach. Suit was filed by the Schuylkill Elee trie Hallway, which has not been able to operato its lines since tho strike began more than n week ago. The trolley lines of the company cover a ast territory in SehmlMII county. "We ate determined to make n test," a statement from the company an nounces. "We arc determined to ascer tain whether n font tact made by an cmploe is as binding in law as it Is if made by an ctnplnjcr. Of course, the law is n farce unless it is. "In this case the men and the union had n contract with the Schuylkill Company which would not terminate, until next month.

Every one knows him, and his cheery saluta tion "How are ou, friend?" When Hill was a jnuug man lie was nttacked by a strange disease ailed bv surgeons osttosureoma.

Hill's left car is in peculiar cireiim stance for it is nttuched to the head by but a very little tissue at the lower and upper ends of the lobe.

They use the L. B. Automatic index because it is quick, accurate and understandable. They use it because it is tho best system of filing and w-filing ever devised. They wouldn't have it around for ten minutes if it wasn't. Any filing system that stands-up and delivers for four of the largest tire companies in the world just has to be good. Few businesses have grown so rapidly. Few have such a tremendous mass of detail. The L. B. Automatic index has cheerfully carried load and come through without a puncture. It is quick as a "flash and as accurate as mathematics. It checks and double checks itself against errors. It removes every excuse for making mistakes. And yet it is simple Come in and put it to the test yourself. The L. B. Auto matic index is as adaptable to the needs of the man in the small office as to the business that covers acres.
