4 An Offer By Local Druggists Now Have Now "External" Treat ment That They Are Sell ing on 30 Days' Trial. Money Refunded If It Does Not Believe Cold Troubles Quicker Than Internal Medicines. The leading druggists, whose names are given below, have re cently imported from the South the new external treatment, known as Vick's "Vap-O-Rub" Salve. No one knows better than the trained chemist the injurious effect of "in ternal" medicines, especially on children. In order to demonstrate to their customers the advantages of this external treatment, these druggists have arranged to sell Vick's in either 25c, 50c, or SI.OO sizes on 30 days' trial, giving with each sale a refund blank, good for your money back if you are not delighted. For croup and cold troubles Vick's "Yap-O-Rub" is applied over the throat and chest, covering with a warm flannel cloth. The vapors released by the bodv heat quickly loosen the choking phlegm, and clear the air passages. In se vere cases, first apply hot wet tow els to open the pores. Vick's is then absorbed through the skin, taking out the tightness and sore ness. Croup is usually relieved in fifteen minutes, and the worst colds commonly over night. This double treatment —absorp- tion through the skin and inhala tion as a vapor, makes Vick's use ful for a wide range of troubles, from head colds, asthma and ca tarrh, down to sore throat, bron chitis, hacking coughs and deep chest colds. \GE.\TS IN HAttIUSnVRGI Brindle Phar.

OLD CONTRACT NOT A BARRIER Public Service Commission Will (io Into Details of An Important Case I The New Jersey Zinc Company of | Pennsylvania, which complained to ; the Public Service Commission against ; the proposed increase of the charges ! l'or the transportation of coal from j ; the t/ohish and Wyoming regions to I I Hazard and Palmerton by the Central J Railroad Company of New Jersey, alleging that the new rates were un -1 reasonable and excessive, will get a hearing on the case very soon. From the facts presented to the,' , commission it appeared that in 1898 j a contract was entered into between I jthe zinc company and the railroad I company by which the railroad com ' pany agreed to transport culm, rice [ and buckwheat coal to the plants of ihe zinc company about to be erected at Hazard and Palmerton at rates not io exceed 3i> and al cents per gross ton. respectively, for a period of i twenty years, and as long as the com- ' pany continued to operate its plants at the two points named. On October 1. I 1913, the railroad company published j a new tariff, increasing* the rates l'or this transportation from 36 cents to t»0 cents and from 51 cents to 75 cents, and the enforcement of the new rates was later restrained by the common pleas court of the county of Philadel phia. the court suggesting in its order that the matter should be raised be-j tore the Public Service Commission i after January 1. 1914, when the pub lic service company law went into ef fect. This complaint was accordingly! tiled and the matter presented to the j commission. The zinc company contended before : the commission that the commission; should pass upon the validity of the : contract above mentioned before con sidering the question of the reason- I ableness and legality of the proposed increased rates, alleging that the con tract was binding and precluded the railroad company from increasing the 1 rates during the time mentioned. The only matters presented to the commis sion were the questions of the right of the parties to make this contract and its effect in view of the passage of the j public service company law. The commission in its report dis ! cusses the effect which the public, scrvi, o company law may have upon the right to make such a contract and the questions which are raised before the commission by an allegation that a I lawfully published rate is unreason- j I able, unjust and discriminatory. It i decides that the public service com- | pany law gives the commission such administrative discretion over the sub- I iect of discrimination in rates that it i is required to proceed to a hearing and I I investigation of all matters pertinent to such subject, in spite of the exist ence of a contract which the courts might have declared nondiscrimi- 1 natory. The commission also held | ; that, even if it were to be decided that the rates fixed in the contract could not be deemed to be unjustly discrimi natory. nevertheless the obligation of the contract does not extend to pre vent the railroad company from charg ing such rates as are just and reason able. Based upon those two conclusions, the commission directed tHe parties to ' present such facts as they desired upon ; the question of the reasonableness of J the increased rates complained of.
