IBut bow about Mayor Oaynor's Idea
Stf abolishing private hack stands, mak
heaj them public ones and reduolnc tha
alas?" I asked.
"Tha is a matter for more com
U oration." aald air. Willard. "If,
as the Mayor says, wa stay legally
i publio hack staaos oat of tha
i private anas. 1 am for It."
X pointed out to Mr. Willard the fact
these strceta where private hack
axe now maintained in front of
belong to the city of New York
as well as any parts of the other straeta
designated aa pufcllo hack elands, and
that the hotel people In other cities are
apart to have cabs In front of their doors
Oar tha convenience of their guests.
"But the custom here la different,"
Mr. Willard, "and the hotel
now want to be heard on tbesub-
so that more public hearings will
toe had on the question in order
ascertain the advisability of doing
with thesa stands. I had sent
evural notices to the hotel men to ap
pear at the hcarlnga, but they did not
respond until now, and since they want
as he heard wa will have to arrange
fas hearings before the decision."
MOTEL MEN GET BIG RENT FOR
THE CITY'S STREET8.
My the present axmnxement tho hotel
assn are paid more than a half million
SJoUara by tho taxicab companies for
Bha privilege of these streets annually.
Z suggested to Mr. Willard that It was
ejolto natural they would want to be
heard on the subjoct and that seemingly
had had ample time, as it has been
nca laet February that this matter has
under consideration.
"Well, I think After a coupls of public
bearings," answered Mr. Willard, "that
aha committee ntll have enough testl
wny to baso their final finding! on tha
Situation."
"What about tho ratea?" I quostloned.
"Well, I have heard a great deal
eaut ratea," aald Mr. Willard. "but
ve not yet heard one suggostaon as to
syhat the ratea ought to be. This, also,
erut bo taken up in tho forthcoming
hearings."
"Don't you think that first GO-cent drop
p exorbitant?" I asked.
"Tea, I believe It should ba
lower." said Mr. Willard. "Trom all
X know now about the matter Z
think that first drop should ba
about as cents or 30 oecte, aa tha
man who rides a few blocks should
ttot have to pay aa muoh as SO
Mats.
"But lu order that thl matter may
9mm final adjustment It would seum wise
to cat more facta. Further. 1 think one
af the important steps which no doubt
Will ba agreed upon by tho committee
hvmedlately la that of proper regulations
tut drivers and licenses. This will make
provision for uniformed inspectors on
the streets to regulate tha taxlcabs. I
ah Ink It would also be a good Idea to
eonulder the advisability of having rates
different In price, according to the time
af the day, alnce there Is ao much time
hat the taxlcabe are not In use. But

THE GREATEST KIDNEY REMEDY
ON EARTH," SAYS A
GRATEFUL WOMAN
I want to tell you how much good
'Our Swamp-Root did me. About (our
years ago 1 suffered from what the
doctors called fistula and for two years
of that time I endured what no tongue
esn tell. I also had inflammation of the
bladder and I tried doctors' nx-dirine
without receiving any help. Some one
told me about Dr. Kilmer's Swawp
Boot. After giving it a thorough trial, I re
ceived relief, so kept on using it and to
day I am a strong und well woman. If I
aver feel badly or out of norts, 1 take
Swamp-Root and it always straightens
ma out. I houesaly believe thst thii
medicine would cure all troubles you
recommend it for and it is a pleasure for
me to send my testimony and photo
graph to you. I think Dr. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root b one uf the greatest medi
ciaes on esrth.

fine dresses that were made up for out-of-town
specialty and department stores. We
got the dresses practically at our own price
and we are distributing them as quickly as
possible to our customers at a figure which
in many instances does not cover the cost
of material alone.

THE SILK DRESSES are of the ap
proved shades of brown, taupe and navy
blue; also in black.
THE VELVET, SERGE AND COR
DUROY models are mostly in black, navy
