Put 2% ounces of Pinex (fifty cents' worth) in a pint bottle, and add the Sugar Svrup. This keens perfectly and has a pleasant taste—children like it.

[ The prompt results from this inexpen sive remedy have made friends for it in . thousands of homes in the United States : and Canada, which explains why the ' plan has been imitated often, but never '< successfully. A guaranty of absolute' satisfaction, or money promptly refunded, goes with this preparation. Your druggist has Pinex ,or will ret it for yon. If not, send to The Pinex Co., Ft. Wayne, hid.

Hill Looks For Steady Business New York, Jan, 27.'—James J. Hill, who visited Wall street yesterday for the first time in months, thinks that the outlook is bright. "The fogs and mists, if there were any, are clearing away," he said. While there have been no startling developments in the northwest, con ditions there are good and funda mentals are sound. 1 do not expect what is generally called a boom, but do IOOK for steady business. The im provement work under way is of a permanent character and for invest ment rather than speculation. Farm ers are in good shape, and, what is most noticeable in Minnesota and the Dakotas, are changing from raisers of grain to raisers of livestock. This tendency is for the general betterment of the Northwest."

' I^HhIhIHISShhMI Photo by Gerhardt BUTCHERS GIANT HOG At least one man in Steelton Isn't worrying any about the high cost of livlns —that is so far as at least one item on his family budget is concerned. The man is Joseph Mathes, who lives on the L,ochiei farm out back of the Baldwin Cemetery, and the reason th at he isn't bothering his head much about the price of pork is that Mr. Mathes butchered a hog on Saturday that was SOME hog. It tipped the scales at some 856 pounds strong. Mr. Mathes, who makes a busiues s of raising hogs, says that this is one of the heaviest porkers butchered in Dauphin county for several years. When the farmer attempted to "wrestle" the hog lie found that he had a Job on his hands and it was necessary to have the assistance of eight other men. .The hog was a little over 7 feet long and measured 5 feet 7 inches around. More than 300 pounds of lard were rendered from the animal. PARK SYSTEM FOR STEELION DISCUSSED Two Tracts of Land Suitable For the Purpose Are Available Plans for the development of a comprehensive park system for Steel ton, and ways and means for procur ing more houses here were discussed at a meeting of the Steelton Municipal League in the Steelton Light and Power Company's Building,. North Front street, last evening. At the present time the borough has two tracts of land suitable for park purposes—the Luther R. Kelker plot of nine acres, presented to the borough some years ago by the Kel ker estate for park development, and a plot of between three and four acres surrounding the reservoir at the end of Swatara street. These two tracts could be developed into an excellent park system and by securing an addi tional srrtall tract near the poorliouse, the parkway could be connected with Harrlsburg's city parks. A committee consisting of Charles S. Davis, chairman; J. V. D. Reyn 8. Davis, chairman; J. V. W. Reyn erford and Dr. W. J. Middleton, was appointed to take up the matter of park development with the borough coupoil, to see if a start cannot be made toward the development of these tracts. House* Badly Needed The need of more new houses to make homes for men employed at Steelton who live elsewhere was dis cussed at some length. It seems that there is a great demand for houses renting from ?18 to $25 a month in Steelton. At present there are two new residential sections of the bor ough in the course of development. They are the Eleventh street extentlon and the Kelker tract at the upper end of Pine street. On these two tracts there are at least ten new houses to be built within the coming season.

I uau I WOULD LOP MILL OFF MIDDLETOII TAX Budget System to Be Recom mended by Committee on February 9 The finance committee of the Mid dletown council Is planning to sys tematize the expenditures of the bor ough in such a way that enough money may be saved to cut one mill from the existing tax rate. The com mittee is now working on plans to be presented to councils at its next meeting on February 9. One of the innovations will be the recommendation of all appropriations in budget form. Former councils were in the habit of making appro priations for each department of the borough as the money was needed. Separate bills for each item were pre sented to councils and approved with an appropriation to pay the bill. Under the new plan being worked out by the finance committee a cer tain sum will be appropriated an nually for the fire department, wa ter department, park board, highway department, sewers and incidental municipal expenses. In this way it is believed by the councllmen that in a short time through more systematic business methods enough money may be saved the taxpayers to reduce the mill rate one mill. The members of the finance com mittee who are preparing the bor ough's first budget are C. B. Earisman. ex-burgess, chairman; Willam J. Al bright and S. B. Gingrich, all Repub* licans.

QUICKLY ENDS THE WORST^BACKACHE Makes Kidney Troubles, Bladdert Disorders, and Rheumatic Pains Vanish It is no longer necessary for any one to suffer with backachlng, kid ney trouble, have disagreeable blad der and urinary disorders to contend with, or be tortured with rheumatism, stiff joints, and its heart-wrenching pains, for the new discovery, Crox one, quickly and surely relieves all such troubles. Croxone is the most wonderful remedy yet devised for ridding the system of uric acid and driving out all the poisonous impurities which cause such troubles. It is entirely dif ferent from all other remedies. It is not like anything else ever used for the purpose. It acts on the principle of cleaning out the poisons and re moving the cause. It soaks right in through the walls, membranes and linings, like water in a sponge, neutralizes, dissolves, and makes the kidneys sift out and filter away, all the uric acid and poisons from the blood, and leaves the kid neys and urinary organs clean, strong, healthy, and well. It matters not how long you have suffered, how old you are, or what you have used, the very principle of Croxone is such, that it is practically impossible to take it into the human system without results. There is nothing else on earth like it. It starts to work the minute you take it and relieves you the first time you use it. If you suffer with pains in yoilr back, and sides, or have any signs of kidney, bladder troubles, or rheuma tism, such as puffy swellings under the eyes or in the feet and ankles, if you are nervous, tired and run down, or bothered with urinary disorders, Crox one will quickly relieve you of your misery. You can secure an original package of Croxone at trifling cost from any first class druggist. All druggists are authorized to personally I return the purchase price if it fails til a single case.—Advertisement 7
