SUCCESSFUL EFFORTS
OF THE WOMAN'S BOARD
A Snug Surplus After Purchasing
the Dressing Sterilizer for Emer
gency Hospital Results of the
Eecent Enterprises of the Ladies'
Auxiliary Ascertained at Last
Night's Meeting $400 in the
Treasury.
The recent enterprises of the "Wo
men's Auxiliary board of Emergency
hospital were successful beyond the
inost sanguine expectations of the zeal
ous and earnest workers In this wor
thy cau'e.
There gratifying results were ascer
tained at the interesting meeting of
the board held last evening nt the
home of Mrs. Frank E. Dennis, on
"Washington .street. The reports that
were presented showed the sums re
ceived the past few weeks to be as
follows: Recent rummage t-alo, 51S0.13;
subscriptions secured by JIlsscs Mar
tha Singer and Nellie Gallaghy, $101;
unexpended balance from semi-centennial
general fund, donated to the hos
pital, $W0.3S; total, 53SD.51.
The incentive for these special efforts
of the ladles was to increase the fa
cilities of the hospital by purchasing
and installing a. dressing sterilizer.
The cost of this needed sterilizer was
estimated at $L','jO. At first the circum
stances that faced the women work
ers caused some misgivings over ob
taining this sum. But the reports re
ceived last night happily banished
these fears. As will be observed, there
Is sufficient to purchase the apparatus,
GKKUALS OK MEAT-
A Prepared Food Helps to Solve the
Problem of Good Living.
PRICES OP MEAT GO UP.
"While the average housekeeper may
be Ignorant us to whether a beef trust
lias been formed or whether the In
crease in the pi ice of meat is due to
other causes, if she is a woman of mod
crate means, she has become convinced
th.it she must turn to something except
animal food for the main faro of her
family," says the Buffalo Express.
"It is not an cntiiely new thing,
thl advance In the price of meats, and
It is PvCn rimioied that prices have not
et reached their limit, but certain It
Is that the cost of living for the aver
age family has Increased rapidly of
lute until meat has become an article
of -diet that must necessarily bo ellm
InatPd from tlio dally fare of the very
poor and has become almost a luxury
even to those who have a moderate
and usually adequate amount to spend
upon the family food.
"Today domestic science and public
opinion have joined In teaching un Im
portant lesson to lleh untl poor alike,
the ncces-slty of consuming body build
ing tood, supplying material that will
l:eep nerves, muscles, bones, flesh and
brain In the proper condition, feeding
Into the human engine the fuel needed
to make good tin- constant waste."
A food expert at Battle Creek,
Mich,, has produced a food especially
intended to supply more nutriment
than meat, llsh or fowl, and that costs
the consumer about one cent a meal.
It Is called, "Grape-Nuts," and has
jivoru nourishment for thu body, and

,besldes leaving an ttppreclablo Bitriiltls,
a surplus big enough for lhcsmit!lcun

ambulance. Hut this ambulance sug
gestion Is only tentative, though II
would bo almost a blessing If the hos
pital had its own conveyance to hurry
tho sick and vdumtcd to tho means
that nwalt them at the institution. Bc
foro dismissing tho ambulance propo
sition, lTnilght bo suggested that per
haps the ladles will take it tip next.
If they do. they are certain to carry
It to a successful Issue, as they have
all of their enterprises sluco enlisting
their efforts In behalf of Oarbondale's
principal and splendid charily.
Tho ladles tiro particularly gratified
over tho results of tho rummage sale,
which was more than ordinarily f.uc
(.essful, for tho two-fold reason that
the Methodist ladles hud just ended n
successful sale and tho Trinity guild
was asking for nrticles for a similar
enterprise.
More than passlug credit is tho por
tion of thoso who wore actlVR in this
sale. There was a heap of work con
nected with its preparation and con
duct and tho board la exceedingly
grateful to nil who assisted In any
way.
The thanks of tho board arc also ac
knowledged to Mss Singer and Miss
Gallaghy for their active and porser
vering work In soliciting among tho
Main street and Salem avenue mer
chant?, which netted $101 to tho board
treasury. The generosity of those who
contributed la likewise gratefully acknowledged.
GLASS FACTORY PROJECT
It May Be Lost to Carbondalo
Through Inactivity Must Act
Quickly.
There Is a fear that the glass factory
project Introduced bv John "W. Altkcn
will be forfeited by Carbondale through
apparent lack or Interest and inactiv
ity on tho part of Carbondallans whoso
resources, if applied, could bring the
Industry here.
Mr. Altken has returned fioin New
York city with the news that the offer
must bo 'accepted or l ejected without
much delay. The projectors of the en
terprise have several cities In view, but
they favor Carbondalo, because of Its
railroad connections. However, If there
be no response on the part of our In
fluential citizens, the owners will go
elsewhere; and what appears to be a
splendid opportunity for Carbondale
will be wasted. The desideratum is to
act quickly. To secure the factory It
will be necessary to erect a plant that
it is estimated will cost 533,000. The
company would also exact an exoner
ation of taxes for a number of years.
It would accept either tho $33,000 turned
in as stock or secured by six per cent,
gold bonds. In cither way tho invest
ment is considered sccuie, as the com
pany now has sufficient orders to keep
the factory busy for two years. It Is
estimated that $73,000 would be paid out
in wages the first year.
MURPHY GIRL IMPROVING.
The Danger Prom Swallowing
the
Pin is Probably Passed.
Annie Murphy, of Cottage street, 'who
was in great distress and danger from
swallowing a pin was appreciably im
proved last night, and her physician
Br. J. J. Thompson, is hopeful that all
(lunger has passed.
The pin was a small one of tho or
dinary kind. She had it in her mouth
when she accidentally swallowed It. She
suffered considerable in the region of
the stomach, partlculuily after eating.
But little could bo done to relieve her.
It was Intended If her distress contin
ued to have her taken to one of the big
cities to have the dangerous obstruc
tion located by means of tho X-ray,
and if necessary to have It removed
surgically. Yesterday, however, there
was .such inmprovement that there is
reason to believe that all danger has
passed. The girl Is able to bo about the
house. She Is employed at the silk
mill.
AFTER; THE CONVENTION.
Knights of Pythias Will Try to Se
cure Grand Session.
The local lodge Knights of Pythias is
Is goliiK to make a hustling light to

ans to Caibondalo next year. The

by t'i? Carbondale lodge hus been
approved and the purpose of
bringing the convention here
next year will soon be- brought to
the notice of every lodge In tho state.
"Whether or not Caibondalo will have
any show will be known In about six
weeks hence. In tho meantime, the
hearty suppoit of tho community

if successful, it will mean a good deal
to this city.

'A BREATHING SPELL."
If the consumptive could
only keep from getting worse
it would be some encourage

gives tired nature a breathing

strength obtained from Scott's
Emulsion are a great relief to
the exhausted system.
This treatment alone often
enables the consumptive to

Only Three Days More
Of the Wonderful Period of Free Treatment, During; Which Doctor Byers
is Introducing to the People of Scranton a New System of Medicine
and by Which He Demonstrates by Tangible Results Its Superiority
Over Other Systems Sufferers from All Diseases Welcome to Take
Advantage of the Opportunity Until 12 o'clock Sunday, May 1 1.
The pledge Doctor Byent made to the public 1st of May, the pledge Involv
ing that wonderful Invitation bidding all sufferers to visit him at his office and
receive his advice, his medicines and his treatment tree of churgo, wilt bo ful
filled to tho letter. Up to the day of tho expiration of the period Free Treat
ment no one will be turned away.
This, notwithstanding the fact that the offices have been thronged to their
utmost capacity, that the resources of Ills laboratory have been taxed lo their
complement, that the time and strength of Doctor Byers have been fully occu
pied, the promise will bo kept, and kept literally, us nil Doctor Byers' promises
to tho public arc. None will bn turned awnv.
Just three days remain of this wonderful opportunity. All those who np
ply before May 11 will, according to the terms of tho Invitation, bo entitled to
receive and will receive consultation, advice, medicines and treatment for a
period of ten days after tho time of their uppllentlbn, absolutely und entirely
free of charge.
For the benefit of those who have delayed to take advantage of this
opportunity until the last, it may bo made very clear that tho lateness of
their application does not deprive them of any of the benefit of tho offer.
They are entitled to ten days' supply of medicine and treatment absolute
ly free. Provided their names are recorded before May 11.
Next to tho expression of surprise and gratitude of the hundreds visit
ing Doctor Byers tho expressions most frequently heard are eager questions
regarding what will be done after the close of Free Treatment on May 11,
what charges will bo made. Scores are asking every day: "If I continue
my treatment after my ten days free are up( what will I have to pay?"
"What arc Doctor Byers' charges, when he does chargeV" Many have writ
ten Into the office, saying: "Doctor, I do not want to take advantage of tho
Free Treatment, but I want you to treat mo, and I want lo know what you
will charge me after the free treatment Is over, so I can tell whether I can
afford it or not."
The question of fees is never a very pleasing one for a physician to dis
cuss, and Doctor Byers does not hold out low-sized fees as an Inducement for
people to be treated by him; indeed, his fees would hardly be considered low.
Many of the people who have taken advantage of this opportunity of ten
days free will need further treatment, however. Many df them have taken
advantage of the treatment because it was free, not being able to afford to
pay large fees for medical services. Doctor Byers does not desire to discon
tinue tho treatment in any case where a longer period of treatment is needed.
It would be manifestly unfair to continue, the. treatment of thoso now under
his care at a low fee and charge new patients a higher fee. He has, there
fore, decided for tho first month of his practice in Scranton to maintain the
LOWEST FEES THAT HAVE EVER BEEN GIVEN IN THE PRACTICE
OF MEDICINE. This period of low fees will only obtain during tho month
of May, the first month of his practice here.

The prompt arrival of the Neptune,

been a serious fire. The chemicals car
