SHOT OFF Hie
Flag of Trace FKes Over Camp
Hill and Water Company
Offices
The Riverton Consolidated Water
Company will not shut off the water
supply in Camp Hill to-morrow, as it
had threatened. The attorneys for
the company and the citizens' com
mittee of the town have reached an
agreement whereby the consumers
will be given the use of the water
until a decision is reached either be
tween the citizens and the company
or before the Public Service Commis
sion. One of the members of the citi
zens' committee said to-day that it
wa» not the desire of the residents to
oarry the matter Into court, but that
the intention was to nettle the affair
through attorneys. "If, however, the
water company should at any time
turn off the supply, then the 'strong
arm of the law' will be brought down
on that concern with force."
It is generally believed to-day that
all matters would be adjusted satis
factorily within a very short time.

WANT STREETS CLEANED
Residents of Camp Hill are com
plaining about the uncleanly condi
tions of the streets in the borough,
>nd it Is probable that within the
\ear future the matter will be taken
jefore council.
A few years ago the Civic Club of
Gamp Hill purchased a number of
waste paper boxes, which were placed
n various places about the town. One
of them, at present, is now hidden be
hind Home shrubbery, and is empty.
Others along the streets are as clean
as tho day they were placed and the
paper is strewn over the town. Along
Market street all along tho curbs are
-tieces of paper and other rubbish
which gives the thoroughfare a very
unsightly appearance.
Council may be asked to Instruct the
highway commissioner to gather up
the rubbish and destroy it. The high
way commissioner is only paid for the
time he puts in on a job when he is
instructed to work by council. It is
itated that it would not take more
than two days to clean the streets.

Hot Tea Breaks
a Cold—Try This
Got a small package of Hamburg
Breast Tea, or, as the German folks
call It, "Hamburger Brust Thee." at
any pharmacy. Take a tablespoonful
of the tea, put a cup of boiling water
upon It, pour through a sieve and
drink a teacup full at any time. It is
the most effective way to break a cold
and cure grip, as it opens the pores,
relieving congestion. Also loosens the
bowels, thus breaking a cold at once.
It is inexpensive and entirely vege
