New York. Dec. 18. The decision
of the Interstate Commerce Commis
sion came unexpectedly 19 Wall Street,
which had not expected definite word
until next week. It came at a time
when the stock market was weak and
helped to bring about a general re

Prices rose from 1 % to 3 points above
the low level of the session. Reading
regained 2 S « points and Baltimore and
Ohio 194. Other Eastern roads scored
lesser gains. The rally was not fully
maintained, prices yielding from frac

MEDICAL .1 NEED
OF FOREIGN TROOPS
Relief Work For Wounded Will
Begin Monday at
Headquarters
Volunteer workers for the relief of
the wounded in the European war be
gin work Monday on bandages and
other hospital supplies, Which are
urgently needed to save lives in the
great fight going on across the waters.
Headquarters will open at 7 South
Front street on that date, and in
structions in proper methods of hand
ling supplies and material will be
given.
Contributions are urgently desired
by the Red Cross Division of the Home
and War Itelief Association, that the
woork may be prosecuted with speed.
Conditions of the war victims on the
battlefields are described as unbe
lievable by witnesses. Surgical and
medical aid is needed by all the com
batants.
Unsanitary conditions in many of
the hospitals, which are crowded with
the wounded and sick, are proving
greater menaces than the shells and
bullets. Lack of proper material is
shown by the report that in some
hospitals the surgeons are packing
wounds with sawdust instead of medi
cated gauze or cotton.
Some idea of what even small sums
of money will accomplish in the way
of life-saving is given in a statement
showing the exxpendlture of 50 cents:
One cent will buy iodine to disin
fect a wound.
One cent will buy cotton to dress the
wound.
Five cents will buy the bandages.
Right cents will pay for the tem
porary splint.
Ten cents will provide chloroform
for the operation.
Twenty-five cents may save a limb
or a life.
Persons may contribute to any coun
try's relief they may desire, and the
money will be spent as designated.
The "nurses" who ministered to the
big audiences at the Orpheum yester
day brought in just $48.70 by their ac
tlviities.

Gift Lists For 23 Years
Pretty safe to give a smoker a cigar with such a
reputation!
Some persons who select gift cigars "fall" fof
fancy bands and fussy packages.
A smoker can't enjoy these things—he wants qual
ity tobacco—and he gets it when you give him a box
of ' •
King Oscar 5c Cigars
They don't have any frills, hut each one is stuffed
as full of quality as Santa's pack is full of good things.
You surely can profit by what others have
