MES "up mam MISS MARY MILLER WINS PROMINENCE The Woniun lawyer Who Won a $30,000 Fee. Miss Nellie O. Miller, stenographer for Shank & Hall, has a sister, who has won fame in Chicago through the earning of a $30,000 fee for the winning of an important suit. Her photo and an extensive write-up ap pear In Human Life for October, un der the heading of Celebrities. We quote from Hampton'B Broadway Magazine for January: There is nothing remarkable about the fact that a woman lawyer should win a big will case. Why shouldn't she? As a matter of fact, In many Instances, women make better lawyers than men, espe cially through natural Intuition. Then again they are good talkers, and persuaHive in argument." There you have it. That Is what Miss Mary E. Miller, of Chica go, said that alter she hau won ner suit on behalf of the grand child ren of the late Wm. Bross, of that city, fur the immediate distribution of their grandfather's $3,000,000 estate. It does Beem odd there aren't more women lawyers. Nobody Is going to deny that they are good talkers and the man who will not admit that women are "persuasive In argument,, hm! Miss Miller, however can do things other than talk. She was admitted to the Illinois bar In 1895, and since then has been Bteadlly at work upon criminal and clval cases, a trial lawyerbefore a Jury, practice In Chancery Court, specializing in the law of real eutate and wills. She was born In Calhoun County, Michigan, and Is a graduate of the Chicago College of Law, which Is the law department of Lake For est University. She taught In the Portland, Mich., High School, , took a course In a business college, be came a stenographer, in a Chicago law office, studied law at night and "Have you had any proposals of marriage since the great fee was won by you?" she was asked. "No not yet. Because, perhaps, the money won't be paid over until the formal order has been placed in the court records. Maybe then some men will want to propose to mo by mall, but please don't suggest such a thing." (She lives at 4516 Indiana Avenue, Chicago, 111.) The argument for which she will be paid hor rich fee Is interesting under the provisions of the IItobs will the estate was to be held In trust until the youngest of the grandchildren reuched the age of 30 years according to the construction placed upon It by Azarlah T. Gait, the administrator, who contested the suit for Immediate distribution. Miss Miller held that, under the truHteo's construction, the estate might never be distributed among tho heirs It was Intended to bene fit. The youngest of the grand- Children, John Bross Lloyd, Is now 22 years old, and the oldest, Will iam IIi'iiks Lloyd, In 33. Miss Mil ler argued that should any of the heirs din before the youngest reach ed the age of 30 years, an injustice would be done to them. Judge Carper ruled that the trustee's ('(instruction of the wi'.l would make the eutate vest ut too remote a period and ordered the distribution of It now.

Independents Fall to Convince Chicago. The recent telephone convention In Chicago secured a transitory place In the limelight through the Insulting of Chicago's mayor and the city council by H. D. Crltchfield, who officially represented it in replying to words of greeting from the may or's representative. The cause of this lies In the chagrin of the Inde pendent telephone Interests over continued failures to secure a foot hold In Chicago. The Independent telephone peo ple seem to fail to grasp the fact that Chicago has reached a stage of understanding of public utility ser vice far in advance of that common throughout the country, and that antipathy to dual telephone service Is a settled policy In Chicago, found ed on conclusions reacted Dy care ful study and Investigation. Chica go does not bar out the Indepen dents because It dislikes the Inde pendents, b.it because it finds if to its own interests to follow this course. Mr. Crltchfield had something to say about "1,300,000 Independent telephones" alleged to be within 500 miles of Chicago "which are de nied admission to Chicago and Chi- ii i. " cago s great commercial lmeieam . The answer of the Chicago Tele phone Company to this was prompt, brief and full. It was published as an advertisement, with a telephone operator pointing at the map and saying: I reach directly, every town, vll lage and hamlet within a radius of nearly 1000 miles. In all this ter rltory no person wishing to tele phone Is shut out of Chicago. Good long distance lines and low rates enable me to deliver thousands of toll calls at your telephone doors every day. If you know the name of any town, village or hamlet of 500 or more Inhabitants that does not have a Bell telephone connec tion. olease let me know. I want to get there. Main 294. A few days after the Independent telephone convention adjourned the Chicago Tribune published the fol lowing editorial, showing how little Impression the convention vaporlngs had worked on public opinion In Chicago. "The recent hearing of the Inde pendent telephone companies before the committee on gaB, oil and elec trie lights has developed an interest ing and Important fact. It Is not the Chicago Telephone affiliation with the Bell Company will panics that object to connection for long distance Bervlee. A represen tatlve of these companies told the committee that "we don't believe that It Is practical for Independent telephone companies to render satis factory service where Its patrons are served through the offices of a com petltor." In other words the position of the Independents seeking access to the city by means of the Illinois Tunnell Company's telephone franchise Is this: The company now In opera tlon In the local field because of Us tanco field, which Is almost as un discriminate In favor of that com pany's long distance service and agnlnst Independent systems where they compete. Therefore, It Is necessary to have a dual system In Chicago to provide for the efficiency of the Independent for long distance service. If the theory ndvnnced wer. true the conclusion thus drawn from It would nevertheless be falso because the advantages to the community from avoiding this discrimination and the maintenance of fnlr and effl dent service would bo far outweigh ed hy the Intolerable nuisance of the dual system within the city to say nothing of tho perpetuation of com petttlve conditions In the long dls lance lieu, winch Is almost as un desirable. But the theory Itself Is false be cause It falls either to take Into ac count or to give proper weight to the factor of regulation. If It Is impossible by public regulation to maintain efficiency lu a service pro vided Jointly by two companies It Is probsbly Impossible to mnlntaln It at all. The problem In the former case may be more vexatious at first, but It Is by no means Impossible. It may be that a company nt first would be so short-sighted as to en gage In this underhanded policy of discrimination, but the means of bringing It to time are ample. The dual system cannot be Justi fied on such arguments as these. It could, In fact, be Justified on one ground only, nnd that the impotence of public control of public service.

A store should not be known as a grange store uuless conducted by the gTange or giving special rateB to members of the grange through grange authority. A paper has no real authority for the use of the word grange In Its title un less Its policy Is directed by the or ganization, but gruuge departments in papers designed for other fields do not come within this restriction, for they simply contain grange news and do not carry any policy or responsibility of the grange. The use of the word grange In the title of banks without a controlling Interest in such banks be ing In the bauds of directors chosen by the grange, whereby special priv ileges would be secured to members of the grange, Is au unauthorised and Improper use of the fulr nam of the grange. Other Instances might be cited In which wrong impressions are convey ed and the name of the grange placed In great jeopardy by the use of Its name.

Deafness Cannot be Cured by local applications, as they canot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There Is only one way to cure deaf ness, and that Is by constitutional remedies. Deafness 1b caused by an Inflammed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube Is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or Imperfect hear ing, and when It Is entirely closed, deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal con dition, hearing will be destroyed for ever; cases out of ten are caused by catarrn, which is nothing but an In namea condition or the mucuous surfaces.
