Damages. The Douglas county commission ers and the Allied Contractors, Inc., were stopped bv order of District Judge Sears yesterday morning from proceeding to lay any of the 12 miles of "Warrenite bitulithic" pav ing, tne contract tor which was signed and bond annroved last Sat urday afternoon by four of the county commissioners. This is the entrance of the paving fight into the courts. Since com missioners gave the contract for the "bitulithic" paving to the Allied Contractors. Inc., two weeks ago, a citizens' committee has been fight ing to have it rescinded. A big meeting Saturday was unproductive of results and now the courts are invoked. Jamin B. Root, head of the live stock commission firm of J. B. Root & Co., South Side, is the citizen, elector and taxpayer named as plaintiff in the petition. 'John P. Breen, his attorney, filed it Judge Sears issued the restraining order a few minutes later and set next Fri day morning to hear arguments on the petition for a temporary injunc tion. The bond put tip was $250 under the restraining order. "Keep Track of Damages." The bitulithic contract, thus stopped, involves $550,055. "What are you going to do now?" John W. Towle, president of the Allied Contractors. Inc., was asked after the restraining order was is sued. "Just keep track of our damages," he replied, smilingly. "We have already spent $60,000 for equipment to do this bitulithic job," he continued. "We have closed contracts for the cement and other materials, all since the con tract was given us. And the people who hold up the work by means of injunction will have to stand re sponsible for our losses. "The brick trust is behind all this thing. The committee doesn't know that but ft is the truth." Eight Typewritten Pages. The petition for injunction con sists of eight typewritten pages and, after reciting the history of the $3,000,000 paving bond 'issue in Douglas county, asks that the county board be enjoined from carrying out the provisions of the bitulithic contract and from paying out any money thereon; also that the Allied Contractors, Inc., be enjoined from proceeding with the work, for the following reasons: 1. That the specifications filed in the office of the county surveyor and to which prospective contractors were referred in making bids, speci fied "Warrenite bitulithic paving on concrete foundation." The .specifica tion of "Warrenite" was destructive of competition, says the petition, be cause it barred all forms of as phaltic mixture, except this so-called patented preparation controlled ex clusively by Warren Brothers. This constituted a fraud upon the electors and taxpayers, it is alleged. 2. That in the specifications, "maximum prices" were given for various kinds 'of paving and that $4.35 was named as the maximum for Warrenite bitulithic, and $4.50 for brick. This was interpreted by some bidders to mean that no bids could be received higher than those prices. It is alleged that $4.35 "al lows a very great if not enormous ?rofit" for bitulithic paving, while 4.50 would permit little if any profit for brick. The bitulithic contract involved in the suit is at $4.35 a square yard. 3. That the printed bid turned in by the Allied Contractors, Inc., for ABVEBTISEMEKT Weak, Thin, Nervous People Should Take Bitro-Phosphate What it U And How It increases Weight, Strength and Nerve-Force. Judjlnt from the VxnintleM preparation! and treatment! which an continually being adver tised for the purpoae of making thin people tleshr, developing ansa and neck, and replacing ugly hol lows and angles by the eoft curved lines of health and beauty, there are evidently thousands of man and women who keenly feel their exoesstve thinnest. Thinness and weakness are often due to starved nerves. Our Indies need more phosphate than Is contained In modem foods. Physicians claim there is nothing that will sutvply this deficiency so weU as the organlo phosphate known among drug gists as bitro-phosphate, which Is Inexpensive and is sold by most air druggist under a guarantee of satisfaction or money back. By feeding the nerves directly and by supplying the body cells with the necessary phosphorlo food elements, Mtro-phosphate should soon produce welcome tranaformatlon In the aivearance; the In crease In weight frequently being astonishing. Increase In weight also carries with it a general Improvement In tha health. Nervousness, sleepless ness and lack of energy, which nearly always ao eompany excessive thinness, should soon disappear, dull eyee brighten and pale cheeks glow with the bloom of perfect health. CAUTION : Wnlle Bitro-Phosphate Is nnsur pasted for. the relief of nervousness; general de bility, etc.. those taking It who do not desire to put on flesh should use extra care In avoiding fat producing foods.

ADVERTISEMENT A SHAMPOO WORTH TRYING It is not necessary to shampoo your hair so frequently if it is en tirely and properly cleansed each time by the use of a really good shampoo. The easiest to use and quickest' drying shampoo that we can recommend to our readers is one that brings out all the natural beauty of the hair and may be en joyed at very little expense, by dis solving a teaspoonful of canthrox, Which can be obtained from any druggist's, in a cup of hot water. This makes a full cup of shampoo liquid, enough so it is easy to apply it to all the hair instead of just to the top of the head. This, when rubbed into the scalp and on every strand of hair, chemically dissolves all impurities. It is very soothing and cooling in its action as well as beneficial to both scalp and hair. After rinsing out the lather so cre ated you will find the scalp is fresh, clean and free from dandruff, while the hair dries quickly and evenly, developing a bright luster and a soft fluffiness that makes it seem very heavy. Kidneys Cause Hysteria Some folks overwork; some over eat; some over drink, and many do all these things and neg'lect the ex cretory organs. Nervousness ensues. Constipation sometimes, but most often the delicate function of the kidneys become disordered, followed soon by congestion. Then headache, neuralgia, rheumatic- pain, headache, and lumbago set in. Frequent urina tion sometimes beyond control. The voided liquid being dark and foetid odor, and its passage followed by burning, smarting spasms of pain, even hysteria being often the result unless the greatest of all kidney medicines, is taken to regulate, allay and neu tralize the irritation of the organs.
