BETTER THAN CALOMEL
Thousands Have Discovered Dr.
Edwards' Olive Tablets Are
a Harmless Substitute
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets—the sub
stitute for calomel—are mild but sure
laxative, and their effect on the liver Is
almost Instantaneous. They are the
result of Dr. Edwards' determination
not to treat liver and bowel complaints
With calomel. His efforts to banish It
brought out these little olive-colored
tablets. These pleasant little tablets
do the good that calomel does but have
no bad after effects. The don't injure
the teeth like strong liquids or calo
mel. They take hold of the trouble and
quickly correct it. Why cure the liver
at the expense of the teeth? Calomel
sometimes plays havoc with the gums.
So do strong liquids. It is best not to
take calomel, but to let Dr. Edwards'
Olive Tablets take its place.
Most headaches, "dullness" and that
lazy feeling come from constipation
and a disordered liver. Take Dr. Ed
wards' Olive Tablets when you feel
"loggy" and "heavy." Note how they
"clear" clouded brain and how they
"perk up" the spirits. At 10c and 25c
per box. The Olive Tablets Company,
Columbus, O. At all druggists.—Adver

tain your guests. Electric Light is the most
healthful of illuminants—the most congenial
for eyes of all ages. But in addition you will
find that it is also the most economical, every
thing considered.

PINDELL DECLINES
ST. PETERSBURG POST
[Continued from First Page.]
a very false light by certain gross mis- |
representations in the public press, 1
and while it is true that these have
been cleared away and the nomination
accepted in Its true light by the Sen
ate after a thorough and dispassion
ate investigation, I feel that It would
be more delicate for me to decline the
appointment than to accept it. No
controversy of this kind should sur
round the appointment of an ambas
sador to a country which cannot be
expected to be familiar with the real
circumstances as they are known at
home. There should be nothing per
sonal to talk about or explain there as
far as the ambassador himself is con
cerned.
"I beg, therefore, that, trusting me
to be guided by my own instinct in
this matter, you will accept my as
surance of deep gratitude for the
honor you have sought to do me and
permit me with genuine regret, but
with no hesitation of judgment, to de
cline the appointment.
"With sentiments of distinguished
consideration, believe me to be, Mr.
President,
"Your obedient servant.
"HENRY M. PINDELL."
President's Reply
The President's letter to Mr. Plndell
follows:
"Your letter does credit to your
delicate sense of propriety and serves
to increase, if that were possible, my
admiration for you and my confidence
In your eminent fitness for the mis
sion which you now decline.
"I can but yield to your judgment
in the matter; because it is clear to
mo that feeling as you do, whether
you are fully justified in that feeling
or not, you would not be comfortable
or happy in the post. I, therefore,
cannot Insist. You will allow me, how
ever, I hope, to express my deep re
gret. I know your quality so well and
was so anxious to see you at St. Pe
tersburg. that I fell a keen disapoint
ment. It Is only a very lmjterfect
consolation that I may now again ex
press my unqualified confidence in
your ability, your character, your dis
cretion and your entire suitability for
such a post.
"Cordially and sincerely yours,
"WOODROW WILSON."
Letters Caused Trouble
The controversy over Mr. Pindell's
nomination grew out of the publica
tion of what purported to be a letter
from Senator Lewis, of Illinois, to Mr.
Plndell, urging the latter to accept
the post of Ambassador to Russia for
a year, and would be re
lieved of diplomatic responsibility for
important negotiations and could
travel freely In Europe. Senator
Lewis charged that the letter was a
forgery and Secretary Bryan later in
a public statement revealed that the
circumstances were that Mr. Pindell
had said he could only accept the
post for a year, because he did not
feel that he could be absent from his
business for any longer periods. No
mention, it was said, was made of any
diplomatic task or duties.
A Senate committee investigated the
correspondence and recommended the
confirmation of Mr. Pindell.
With the Russian ambassadorship
again open, there was gossip In official
circles about the likelihood of Charles
R. Crane, of Chicago, being named.
Mass Meeting of White
Cross League at Annville
Special to The Telegraph
Annville, Pa., Feb. 2. Yesterday
afternoon E. E. McCurdy, of Lebanon,
spoke to almost 200 men in Engle
Conservatory of Music, Annville. The
meeting was held under the auspices
of the White Cross Single Standard
League of America, Chapter 36, of
Lebanon Valley College, Annville, Pa.
Special music was a feature. Ray
Campbell furnished selections on the
piano; L. A. Rodes sang a beautiful
solo, and the octet from the Annville
Patriotic Orders Sons of America ren
dered several numbers.
Dr. Gossard, president of Lebanon
Valley College, read the Scripture and
Professor A. E. Shroyer, acting pastor
of the Annville United Brethren
Chrrch and professor in Bible and
Greek of the college, offered the open
ing prayer. L. B. Harnish, president
of the local chapter, presided.
A HAPPY CHILD IN
JUST A FEW HOURS
If cross, feverish, constipated,
give "California Syrup of
Figs."
Mothers can rest easy after giving
"California Syrup of Figs," because in
a few hours all the clogged-up waste,
sour bile and fermenting food gently
move out of the bowels, and you have
a well, playful child again. Children
simply will not take the time from
play to empty their bowels, and they
become tightly packed, liver gets
sluggish and stomach disordered.
When cross, feverish, restless, see if
tongue is coated, then give this de
licious "fruit laxative." Children love
it. and it cannot cause injury. No
difference what ails your little one—if
full of cold, or a sore throat, diarrhoea,
stomachache, bad breath, remember, a
gentle "inside cleansing" should always
be the first treatment given. Full
directions for babies, children of nil
ages and grown-ups are printed on
each bottle.
Beware of counterfeit fig syrups.
Ask your druggist for a 50-cent bottle
of "California Syrup of Figs." then
look carefully and see that it is made
by the "California Fig Syrup Com
pany." We make no smaller size.
Hand back with contempt any other
fig syrup.—Advertisement.

GREEKS IN PUBLIC
SCHOOLS BRIGHTEST
[Continued from First Vnge]^
Instinct as money makers, forge ahead
but fall behind in the other studies
somewhat.
The teachers who have these little
foreigners under their care believe the
situation could be helped by segregat
ing the raw material. As things are
now, much time is of necessity wasted
in explaining to a child unfamiliar
with our language the nature of the
work the class is about to undertake.
The techer (who in many cases neces
sity has made a rather proficient lin
guist) in calling a class for reading is
obliged to lift a book before the eyes
of the new pupil and repeat its name
in his own language. Sometimes she
gives her recess periods and even
some of her home hours to helping
the boy or girl struggle with a n«w
tongue an dthe graded lessons at the
same time. Two or three weeks in a
class where nothing is taught but
English would be sufficient for most
of these bright youngsters to so in
derstand our language that their prog
ress would be easier for them and the
teachers would be relieved of the extra
load.
"In the high schools a teacher of
languages is paid aceodringly," said
one of these young women, "but we
are expected to give this Instruction
along with all our other work and
take the time for it which should be
devoted to the work of the whole
class."
Teachers Enjoy Work
Inspite of the extra labor involved,
however, the techers without excep
tion enjoy having these children un
der their care.
"They are so willing to work and so
interesting," said one.
"They are so affectionate and so
lovable," said another.
Their quick sensitiveness to slights
or ridicule is one phase of the situa
tion there is some difficulty in hand
ling.
vVe have to be so very careful,"
said a teacher in the Wickersham
building, "especially with the older
ones. The Italians, for instance, are
warm hearted but Impulsive and If
they do not just understand what you
mean they think you are trying to
imply things against them or their
people and are very angry imme
diately."
The appreciation of education il
lustrated by the Immigrant classes is
proven by the statistics which show
us that the illiteracy among children
of the native-born parents is three
times as great as that among the na
tive-born children of foreign-born
parents.
Physical Development
In cultivation of the foreign child's
mind we should not neglect his body.
Physical exercise is as important as
mental exercise to all growing hu
mans. Play is a necessity. To pre
f
vent both the physical and moral
clangers of the streets or open air
playgrounds were started. If, as has
been before stated, tubeculosis claims
so many victims from the foreign
quarter, especial effort should be
made that these children utilize the
playgrounds freely. It is here that
the opportunity comes for the de
velopment of that comradeship which
arises from match games, teams,
clubs, etc.
A young Harrisburg teacher who
has had considerable experience in
the education of foreigners both in
and outside of the sclioolrom bitterly
resents the prevailing American atti
tude toward them.
"Most people seem to thing be
cause he is a foreigner he must be
an illiterate peasant," she said.
"Some of the young men to whom I
have taught English have come from
homes of culture and refinement over
there—what you would call the re
spectable middle classes —but they
have not been able to get our girls
to receive them as such. The aver
age person puts them all under the
rather disparaging name of 'Hun
key.' "
Harrisburg is in line with the other
citi'es of America in the worfklng out
of this great problem of providing a
future generation of alert, wide
awake, intelligent citizens from this
material sent her from over the seas.
DRINK HOT TEA
FOR A BAD COLD
Get. 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
table, therefore harmless. —Advertise-

Governor Speaks at
Evangelistic Service
Special to The Telegraph
Pittsburgh, Feb. 2.—Two former big
league baseball players, who have
since become distinguished in different
fields of business, spoke from the plat
form in the "Billy" Sunday tobernacle
yesterday afternoon.
One of these was Sunday himself,
who delivered a sermon to men only,
and the other was Governor John K.
Tener, of Pennsylvania. \
Prior to the serman by the evange
list, Governor Tener's presence in the
tabernacle became known and Mr.
Sunday invited his former rival of the
diamond to address the great audi
ence. Mr. Tener made a short address
in which lie praised the sincerity of
the preacher and the good work he
has done in the cause of religion.
"He served the Lord in those days,
too,'" said the Governor, "but he is in
a better position now to carry to sin
ners the message of redemption than
he was then."
