flpfemafionaf NEW YORKS5S5 CHICAGO. NWtt t . J. WALSH, AGENT When the Doctor Comes BY telephone he calls the druggist, the nurse* the hospital--or if the case is urgent he may summon a brother physican for consultation. In this and a thousand other ways the telephone proves its worth. It is an edu- ijfetor, a protector, a comforter. It is especially valuable during winter weather.

The new company which is to take over the electric light, power and gas companies around Chicago will be known as the Public Service company of Illinois. The" corporation has al­ ready been formed and tlW charter granted at Springfield. The nominal capitalization is $1,000, but will be in- over. The merger, which is being put thru by Samuel Insull and his asso­ ciates, will include the North Shore Electric, the Economy Light and Pow­ er, the Illinois Valley Gas an£ Electric and the Kankakee Gas and Electric companies. Other concerns may also be taken into the combination later, as the company's corporate rights under its charter will be brbad enough to provide for grekt growth of public ser­ vice companies in the future. Prac­ tically all of the stocks of the com­ panies named have been deposited with the Illinois Trust and Savings bank under the terms of the call1 sent out several weeks ago, and it is expected that the first steps in the organisation will be taken within a week. <f .
