She took it out of the go cart, the con.hu'tor took a dime and resumed his station alter a delay of three or four minutes and the lady surreptitiously put the baby back into the buggy. The affair might have been more amicably adjusted, but the lady had hair of a pronounced auburn hair. SHOP NOTES. In the opinion of at least one Phoe liix woman, t'-e rules an J regulations of the strict railway company are past finding out and are not susceptible of ;i reasonable explanation. She got on a town-bound car with a very small baby in a very large go-cart, which was pat t.pon the rear platform with considerable difficulty. When it was tinally loaded there was no way for anybody to get into the car or out of it at that end. Then' was barely room enough for tlie lady to stand and guard the baby. The conductor looked on disapproving ly but the real disturbance crime when he went around to collect his fare. The lady offered him a dime, a nickie for hi r: elf and one for the go cart. The baby had Hot et reached the ai- lim- I it tin age of responsibility to street car etinipanies. Then Hie curious rule which set the lady to woiidi ring was promulgated: it was that the fare for an mpty-go i an is fie cents, but for a go-cart villi a bahv in it the transportation charge is ten cents. The lad: could not reach that find ing bv anj process of arithmetic with which siie was familiar. The go-cart I took up no more room with the b.by i in i' than without; the babv was chargeable Willi nothing, and how notli- I Mrs. Hussfly "Xow, my daughter, you are equipped for the summer.

Wreaths of flowers in the hair for the home wedding, big flower covered hats for the church or lawn affair are the proper caper for the bridesmaids. Of course there is nothing that can ever take the place of the veil for the bride anywhere. The bridesmaids should get together and give the bride a luncheon during the week of the event. A strictly feminine affair, no men allowed to even so much as have a peep. The habit of biting the linger nails s a serious one and should be broken ; as soon as possible, as it means a dis I I'iguring of the bands if kept up until the child reaches the age of fifteen or eighten. In the most cases the biting of the finger nails Is the result of ner vousness or self consciousness, and is often hard to overcome. Tiie best way to overcome this dread) ill habit in the little child is to tie up the finger lips in such a way that the child cannot get at them. In older children it is best to ascertain the primary cause, and then treat the cause, instead of nagging. Give it all the fresh air possible, solid and substantial food, never allow it to become worried or wrought up over anything.

The conductor had no time t J I'is ' uss the ethics of the charge or n in to the history of street railwav trans portation. He only knew that that was the rule, and it was his business to keep his car running, collect fare-' and obey tie rules. He added, though, that if the lady would take 'he- baby i:t of the go-cart and hold it s'a- .oultl rave five cents. The baby wocld not he subject to charge and the empty go-cart co 'J Ul be carried un ler the rules for a nickel. It was, thus dis closed that there was amaximum and minimum rate for go-tarls.

The govern ment's dissolution suit against the Standard oil company of Xcw Ji r- v si y, seven of its officers and seventy subsidiary concerns, has been in the courts since Nov. 1.1, l'JUC, when tiie complaint was filed in the circuit court of the I'nited States for tiie eastern division of the eastern judi cial district of Missouri at St. Louis. It has been heard by the four judges of the eighth judicial circuit who have sat en bane as the I'nited States circuit court of appeals, thus allowing a direct appeal from this decision to the supreme court of tV I'nited Stales. This was the circuit in which the Northern Securities case was heard, and it was selected for the Standard lil case because of its location, and because many of the government's witnesses were residents of adjoining states. The government's allegations, which Were filed by David 1. Dyer, then I'nited States district attorney, were bus il largely upon an investigation of the oil business conducted by Jatr.es R. Garfield, commissioner of the bureau of corporations, at the be hest of President. lloojicvclt. This investigation 'consumed a year, and because of it, various grand juries re turned indictments containing S193 counts, according to Commissioner Garfield's annual report of December 9, VMS. In petitioning for the dissolution of the New Jersey corporation and its subsidiaries, the government com plained that the defendants had con spired "to restrain the trade and commerce in petroleum, commonly called 'crude oil," in refined oil and in the other products of petroleum among the several states and terri tories of the United States and the District of Columbia, and with foreign I nations, and to monopolize the said commerce." John D. Kockefeller, William Roc-k-efcller and Henry M. Flagler were named as the originators of the al leged conspiracy. The bill claimed that between 1S"0 and 1SS' Henry H. Rogers, John D. Archbold. Oliver H. Payne, and Charles M. Pratt joined the conspiracy which culminated with the organization of the New Jersey j c -rporation in 1S'J3. f Three periods of development are alleged in the complaint. The first, that preceding was marked, it is assct-iid. by the activities of the in dividual defendants i-. connection with tho Standard Oil ooi::nt,ny of Ohio, in acquiring interests in, or ei'tering agreem.. a.'s wi'h, various c ui-.pt ting firms. orpora!i.-ni and in dividuals engage-; in the oil business. I rmii to the ennjla.nt .(- cited, the affairs of the -iriuu con cerns ;!.(: indi iihi.il.s wer-- under trie n.antv. cent of .line trust.:-.-- by a "trust ...".-"cmen:. " allege " to Ik "in restraint of trade and commerce and in violation of law." Since ls',19, it was alleged, the fi ndants have acted "through Standard Oil Company of New Jersey as a holding corporation, which com pany acquired the majority of stock in various cororations and managed thetn in violation of law." It was charged a'.so that in their alleged efforts to monopolize the oil business, the defendants had solicited aad received rebates on shipments not only of their own products but also on those of competitor and la"r ac quired control of various pipe lines which were merged into the National Transit company. From the inception of the case, Frank B. Kellogg, St. Paul, and Charles l;. Morrison, Chicago, have appeared on behalf of the government as special assistants to the attorney general of the United States. John C. Milburn, New York; Moritz Ros enthal, Chicago, and John G. J ! nson. Philadelphia have headed the defen dants' long list of attorneys. The judges who have considered the case are: Walter H. Sanborn. St. Paul: Klmer B. Adams. St. Lou:.-;; Willis A. Van Devanter, Cheyenne, Wyoming and William C. Hook, Leavenworth, Kansas. Service was had on the defendants in December of 1906, and the--first legal battle came in the following month when the defense tried un do-the successfully to have the service re voked on all concerned save the Waters-Pierce Oil Company of Missouri, because, it was claimed, it wis the only defendant resident in the judicial district in which the suit was filed. This contention was overruled, and the company s answer of si:;ty-six printed pares was filed April 9, lo7. Thirty -seven exceptions to the government's petition were included in this document. Argument or these took place at St. Paul May 24, 107. The four judges overruled all tie ex ceptions, and July 15, 1)7 an addi tional answer was filed covering the points to wiieh the deftnse lad at first declined to p:ead. The answer admitted certain con tentions regarding stock ownership and organization and tha". the seven individual defendants were members of the company, but generally denied the main allegations of the govern ment's petition, especially those charging conspiracy to control trade, crush competition, receive rebate and monopolize the oil business. The taking of testimony was en trusted to Franklin Feriss, St. Louis, who was appointed tpeeial master of chancery in June lftOT. The broad generalities of the com plaint and answer presaged a consid erable latitude in the sta-.emer ts of witnesses which was borne out when the hearing began September 1, 11)07 in New York. From then until the final testimony was given in Chicago on Janua:-y 2J, 19o, 444 persons answered questions before Judge Ferriss. The result was a record of L'3,000 printed pages of testimony and exhibits which was filed in St. Louis on March 21, 190. Hearings were held in Cleveland and Washington also. The bulk of the testimony by the defense was given in New York. The hearings reached their climax when the defense called to the stand Charles H. Pratt, John D. Rockefel ler and John D. Archbold. Exhibits were introduced showing that in sev en years the profits of the business had totalled nearly $500,(00.000, the statement for the Standard Oil com pany of Indiana alone shov.ing pi of its in 1906 of more than $lo,000,onij on a capitalization of one-tenth that amount. John D. Rockefeller tool: the stand November 18, 107, and was not ex cused until November 24. He admit ted that the Standard Oil interests had reecived rebates on shipments over certain railroads, seme of the officers of which w-re stockhol Jers in the Standard Oil company. He said that he held stock in nine rail roads, several of which hanJIed Standard Oil products. Under cross examination, he declared that the oil business was hazardous because of the danger from fire, or the possible exhaustion of the wells. Arguments on the case began April 5, 1909, in St. Louis, continuing for a week. Both sides filed voluminous briefs upon which the arguments by Messrs. Kellogg, Morrison, Johnson, Milburn, Rosenthal and other attor neys were based. The court then took the case under advisement.
