Attendance at Biederwolf Meet
ings at Waynesboro So Great
Building Is Enlarged
Waynesboro, Pa.. Jan. 13. —The at
tendance at the tabernacle to hear
the sermons preached by Dr. Bieder
wolf, the great evangelist, who is
conducting a Ave weeks' campaign
here, lias grown in such numbers that
there isn't sufficient room in the spa
cious building with a seating capacity
of 6,000 persons to accommodate the
people.
It was announced on Sunday after
noon and evening by Dr. Biederwolf
that the tabernacle would be en
larged and he requested -fifty mem
bers of his congregation to report at
the building early Monday morning
with hatchets and saws, for the pur
pose of taking out the east side of
the tabernacle and making the build
ing seventeen feet wider and 125
feet longer. The men reported lor
work as requested and the addition
was built, under the direction of S. K.
Yankey. This will give accommoda
tions to at least five hundred more
persons. There will no services in
the tabernacle Monday niglit.
Dr. Biederwolf has been here one
week and the attendance has been
29,500: collections amounted to
$897.67, and there were 208 conver
sions. Sunday was a red-letter day.
At the men's meeting in the taber
nacle during the afternoon there were
4,000 persons present; the collection
amounted to $210.32, and there were
25 conversions. At the meeting for
women held at the same time by Mrs.
Marie Brake, assistant to Dr. Bieder
wolf, in the Methodist church, there
were 1,200 present; the collection
amounted to $22.50. and there were
seven conversions. At the service Sun
day evening the tabernacle was not
large enough to accommodate the
gathering—several huntlred persons
o.ould not gain admission. There were
5,000 people present. The collection
amounted to $111.33, and there were
110 conversions.
Dr. Biederwolf said the attendance
was the best in his experience, con
sidering the short time he has been
conducting the meetings here.
A naval officer I know 1
canceled a lot of en- E
gagements last week I
in order to devote the i
time to his dentist. 'I
"lamgoingon a long cruise," I
he said, "and I know the value rj
of good teeth. Good teeth mean jy
good health afloat or ashore and K
a man can't do his work well
unless he has good health."
In the army and the navy, and
in all great industrial spheres
the value of good teeth is being
recognized. Statistics prove
that sound, clean teeth, pre
serve health and promote busi
ness efficiency.
The twicc-a-year visit to the
dentist and the twice-a-day use
of Colgate's Ribbon Dental
Cream, the efficient, deliriously
. flavoreddentifrice, insure sound
clean teeth, better health and
better looks.

bidder. Mr. Saul was one of the suc

along with that of Johnson Brothers,
another local firm, will be included in

I The finishing touches in' the placing
iof Marysville's handsome new public
water fountain took place on Saturday
afternoon. Although the work is all
completed, water will not be turned
into the fountain until Spring, on ac
count of the danger of freezing. Im
pressive dedication exercises will be
held at that time.
The fountain is twelve feet in
height, with a large globe on top, in
which an electric light has been
placed. The fountain has drinking re
ceptacles for dogs and horses, and a
| sanitary drinking bulb for the needs
of man. The bowl for dogs is seen
in the picture in front, near the bot
tom; the bowl for horses is at the left
and the sanitary drinking bulb is at
the right.
Pure mountain water, piped from
the reservoir of the Marysville Water
Company, at Lamb's Gap, four miles
west of Marysville, will be furnished
for the fountain, free of charge, for
ninety-iiint - years, by the company.
A public fountain has been one of
! .Marysville's greatest heeds for many
| years. Through the hot summer days
i of next summer, the weary traveler,
| refreshed by a drink of pure, cool
I water, will breathe many thanks to
Jacob D. Carmichael, Marysville's
street commissioner, through whom
the purchase and placing of the foun
tain was made possible. He first
| thought of Marysville's great need and
I set out to secure money for the pur
chase of the fountain. In the securing
.of the necessary contributions, Mr.
Carmichael put in eight weeks at hard
I work. "Jake," as he is familiarly
| called, deserves great credit from ail
, the town's residents, for the work he
I has done for "A Bigger and Better
I Marysville."

hadn't passed an ordinance prohibit

entertainment when the big firemen's
convention comes to Harrisburg. He
knew of no ordinance against it, he
said, although he believed Council
once made a rule prohibiting this.
The Mayor said similar requests re

refused action. He didn't recollect, ho
said, that such permission had been

WHAT TO DO FOR NEURALGIA!
The one great symptom of neuralgia I
lis pain; the one great cause is lack of
[nutrition for the nerves, in plain lan
guage—starved nerves.
There are two things to do for any
form of neuralgia. Apply heat to the i
1 affected part to'soothe the pain, and!
feed the nerves by taking a tonic con- '
taining the elements needed by them. |
Heat, as afforded by hot flannel, hot I
water bags, etc., lulls> the inflamed
nerves into temporary quiet. It does
not cure. Not until «tlie nutrition of
the nerves is restored will the inflam- i
mation subside.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills furnish to'
the blood the needed elements and
the'blood conveys them to the nerves.
The only way of getting food or medi
cine to the nerves is through the
blood. Remember that.
Neuralgia is a general term. It l
means inflammation of a nerve. It is
given different names according to the
nerve affected. Sciatica is neuralgia of I
the sciatic nerve. Application of heat
will soothe the pain in all forms of
neuralgia and Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
will correct the condition that caused it.
Your own druggist sells Dr. Wil
liams' Pink Pills and the Dr. Williams
Medicine Co.. Schenectady, N. Y., will
send you a little book on "Home Treat
ment of Nervous Disorders" for the
asking.—Advertisement.
