Just One Application
and Ugly Hairs Vanish
.________________
(Modes of To-day.)
Here is a simple treatment for re
moving ugly hairs. It is painless, re
quires little time and can be used in
the privacy of your home: Get some
powdered delatone and with water mix
enough paste to cover the objection
able hairs. Apply for 2 or 3 minutes,
then rub off, wash the skin, and it will
be left soft, clear and hairless. This
method is inexpensive and entirely
harmless, but be sure to get delatone
or the result may bo disappointing.—

THURSDAY EVENING,
P3T! PST! AND THE
FLAGMAN IS LOST
Reminiscent Baggageman Carefully
Pulled the Rope to Go Ahead
a Bit Too Soon
When the Mifllin local pulled out of
Union Station last night it was twenty
minutes late. In the front seat of tho
smoker tho baggageman, a tall, gaunt,
good-natured fellow, had settled down
comfortably. He was facing a drum
mer and a doctor in the opposite seat
and was telling the story of his check
ered career.
"Yes, you know, 1 wouldn't want to
be a flagman or conductor," he was
saying. "Could be if I wanted to, but
their work is too hard. You know,
I've cow-punched down in Texas,
chased insurrectos in the Philippines,
gambled, horse-raced, played baseball
and"
Pat, pst—ho was interrupted by the
hissing air whistle as tho train started.
"Maclay street, Maclay street," ho
sang out, and again settled down to
tell his tale.
"You know, I'm just doin' this as a
favor for the conductor," he started to
relate when ho was interrupted with
j a curt —
"Two off at Lucknow" from the uni
formed individual labeled "conductor."
Without interrupting* his story he
signaled the engineer to stop.
"You know, doctor, we railroaders
have it tough. Why, this last blizzard
was nothing beside the one in '89,"
he rambled, as, without waiting for
the signal from the flagman, who had
stepped to tho platform to lower tho
station "flag," he pulled the air cord
twice for the engineer to go ahead.
At Marysville the reminiscently in
clined baggageman was awakened
with this unkind jolt from tho con
ductor:
"Go back to flag, Harry. You left
Charley behind at Lucknow."
Tho members of the crew are: Con
ductor, H. A. Gable; baggageman, H.
B. Charles: flagman, C. W. Springer.
Train Held l"p ati Hour. Train
No. 12 of the Philadelphia and Head

put the engine in shape in an hour.
Fifty passengers missed their supper.

Again Elected a Vice-President of
the State Veterinary Medi
cal Society
{» Forty-one fatal
a accidents and 4,-
A 163 which are
classed as serious
/qfcti\v3Rv were reported to
lw /gffILyVSjCT the department of
"jQQQQq> labor and industry
IJMSIWISSSfffIr during the month
a ° r February, this
g being the first
e® month In which
Fi rii lll ,rrrr ■' arm the reports under
, , the new system
have been received in sufficient num
ber to enable a tabulation to be made.
Commissioner John Price Jackson,
who is organizing the report service,
says that this number represents but
a fraction of the total accidents occur
ring in Pennsylvania inasmuch as em
ployers have not yet fully realized that
i they are required to make reports un
j der tho acts creating the department.
Commissioner Jackson says that ac
ti\c measures will be taken during
March to require reports of all serious
accidents to be made and that persons
or firms failing to comply will bo vig
orously prosecuted. "This is not in
tended as a hardship and all that is
desired is a reasonable compliance
with the law, which is of the utmost
value to the people of the State," said
he to-day. "By having a full record
of all accidents occurring, with specifi
cations of their causes, the department
will be able to take measures, in co
operation with employers, which will
reduce the sum total probably more
than fifty per cent. It can be readily
conceived that such a reduction will
not only avoid enormous suffering to
those who • are afflicted by the acci
dents and their families, but will be
an economic saving running Into large
denominations for the people of the
Stato as a whole."
Ready Fop Flood. —Field men and
observers of the State Water Supply
Commission have been directed to re
port Immediately breaking of ice and
rising of streams as a result of the

eral public warnings have been direct
ed. Hundreds of men throughout the
State are making observations, many
of them voluntarily.
Watchman Ordered. —The Public
Service Commission to-day directed
that a watchman be placed at the
Pennsylvania railroad grade crossing
in New Florence, pending completion
of negotiations for construction of a
subway. Solicitor Lewis J. Walltin
shaw appeared for the borough ask
ing that some protection be given to
the people and General Manager R. L.
O'Donnell, of the Pennsylvania, ap
peared for the company. Following a
statement of the facts the commis
sion directed that for public safety the
company should place a watchman.
This crossing was investigated by In
vestigator Dohoney last year and re
ports made 011 the situation.
Named on Commission. —Dr. Sam
uel G. Dixon, State Commissioner of
Health, and Judge Isaac Johnson, of
Media, have been appointed members
of the State Dependents Commission.

of route in the highway in western
counties. He called on Governor
Tener who assured him of his co
operation and then saw Commissioner

A VOTE KHOM THIi GIH.I,
[From the Popular Magazine.]
Wit and money abound in Detroit.
This story touches both.
Introducing the money: A young mun
bought a cheap automobile—one of
those pieces of nicely adjusted Junk
that snort, scream, und howl for help,
accomplishing every known linguistic
feat except the singing of a Greek
i chorus. Then the youth formed the
habit of using the machine whenever
he went to call on his sweetheart.
The fact that excavating was being
done in the street where she lived did
not hinder him. The debris could not
impede him. He called regularly.
Introducing the wit: One morning
he received a note from the girl, say
ing:
I had quite a thrill last night. I
heard a series of explosions in the
street outside, and thought you had
come to call."

SQUIRE USES FUMILY
BIBLE FOR I DESK
Takes Information Against De
serting Husband in Room
of Stricken Woman
For a short while yesterday after
noon Squire T. V. Gardner's court was
transferred from the room In the
Steelton Trust Building to a dingy lit
tle upper room in the home of Thomas
Porter, 320 Franklin street.
Here by the bedside of Mrs. Martha
Brown, who lay near death from a
lingering Illness, the Squire took In
formation that later caused the arrest
of her husband, F. T. Brown on
charges of desertion and nonsupport.
With the big family Bible for a desk,
land leaning close over the bed of the
dying woman to catch her feeble whis
perings, the Squire slowly wrote the
heartrending story of a marriage
gone wrong.
She paused frequently to gasp for
breath as she told how her husband
lived with her happily for a few years
after their marriage, then tired of
her and neglected her. First, he came
home late, and finally, on July 29,
1812, he came home not at all.
This was shortly after Mrs. Brown
had been discharged from the. Harris
burg Hospital on cured from a serious
Illness. Later, from overwork, she says,
she again became ill. Friends were
asked to plead with her husband to
return.
Brown came back; but he didn't
stay, said the woman. As he left her
the last time, the slclc woman says,
she begged him at least to give her
money to enable her to secure proper
medical attention.
1-Ie is alleged to have replied, "All 1
can give you is a widow's mite. Here,
take this cent."
Brown was arrested by Detective
Gore to-day and will be arraigned be
fore Squire Gardner this evening. Mrs.
Brown has been taken again to the
Harrisburg Hospital.

HOTELS IRE DEFUSED

burg. W. M. Ensminger, proprietor.
Except in the wholesale store case
the reason given ln the lengthy de
cree Is the Insufficient number of cer
tifiers, "qualified electors and reput
able citizens."
Ensminger had the only wholesale
liquor store in the county and its ca
reer seems ended. He came here
ironi Carlisle u couple of years ago
and bought the store from James F.
iMcferren, now dead, who had been
a former Democratic county chairman
and got the license after a lapse of
2o or 30 years in which the county
had no such store.
This closes both Mercersburg hotels
and makes the town absolutely dry
to the high delight of Mercersburg
Academy officials, who have fought
vainly for years until now to close bars
there and end trouble with the 400
boy students.
Chambersburg's four leading hotels
get black eyes. The Washington is
famous as one of the best hotels of
the State, outside the largest three
cities. It had been run for a year
after being rebuilt without a bar, al
though licensed. It will continue in
business without a bar.
The three big Main street hotels,
standing side by side, fall victims to
the arid wave. McKinley and Mont
gomery will continue to run without
licenses, the National may be closed.
It is a great farmers' hotel and the
accommodation it affords will be much
missed.
Hotel John was reallv more of a
cafe than hotel and for ten years has
not catered to lodgers or boarders as
was shown in court. This fact alone
was sufficient to kill its license.
The evidence of the three boys, Rus
sel Lehman, Lester Hanes and Roy
Wingert, High School pupils, all
minors, who went all over the county
buying whisky or beer in bottles with
money furnished by the W. C. T. U.
was ignored as to action by Judge
Gillan. His honor, however, animad
verts strongly on the careless bartend
ers who sold to these boys and it is
evident that if their so buying did not
affect every bar in the county. Judge
Gillan would probably have closed
some of the bars where they bought.
The country hotels all came through
clean and aside from the three minors
there was nothing against them. •
Waynesboro, desoite the two homi
cides just recently both due to whisky,
regains all her licenses.
TO FIGHT COAL TAX LAW

Without An
Operation
Wonderful Healing of Rupture
How a New Jersey Man Got Rid
of a Severe, Obstinate, Right
Inguinal Hernia Without the
Slightest Trouble.
Below Is a picture of Eugene M. Pul
len, a well-known carpenter of Manas
quan, New Jersey. If you could see
him at his work, particularly when
he handles heavy timber, jumps and
climbs around llko a youth, you would
scarcely Imagine that he had formerly
been afflicted with a rupture.
Ruptured In Right Side.
At an early age, Eugene Pullen was
an express driver. He handled railroad
baggage. One day after delivering u
a heavy trunk on an upper floor he felt
a pain ln the right groin. The suffer
ing Increased and it was not long be
fore the young man noticed the swell
ing.
Tho doctor told young Pullen that
he was ruptured and that he must
either wear a truss throughout life or
submit to a drastic operation. All
surgeons know that hernia operations,
with anaesthetics, etc., are dangerous;
they may end fatally. Moreover, It '
is a well established fact that many
rupture operations are not successful;
the bowel soon breaks through the
sewed-up opening and protrudes worse
than ever. . .
Afraid of Operation
Like most others, Mr. Pullen declined
to take the risks of an operation; the
expense and loss of time had to be
considered, too. Hoping he might get
a little better encouragement, he went
to another physician who, to his sor
row, gave him even less hope. It was
pointed out to the young man that un
less tho rupture were perfectly held all
the time or the surgeon's knife suc
cessfully used, he might expect an in*
crease or doubling in the rupture with
further complications, or the dreaded
strangulated hernia which kills so
many ruptured people.
Victim of TruMicH.
The victim bought a truss, a hard,
spring-like affair, the best he could
get. It tortured him. He tried an
other—still no relief. He was compelled
to give up his express business. The
hard tasks of ordinary men were for
bidden him. He became an insurance
agent, ln which position he did not
need to do bodily work.
For six years Mr. Pullen dragged
around, using various trusses, hard,
elastic, etc., with never any content
ment. On day his mother told him
something she had just found out. It
was a simple and easy thing for him
to do. He lost no time.
Discarded His Truss.
Relief caine at once; he almost for
got that lie had any rupture. After
ward came a cure—a complete healing
—and, although years have passed and
Mr. Pullen is an energetic carpenter,
working on buildings, climbing over
roofs, lifting lumber and such like, lie
is absolutely free from the old hernia.
He knows lie Is completely, lastingly
cured. There was no operation, no lost
time, no trouble—comfort and content
ment from the very outset. He is a
strong, cheerful-minded man.
Valuable Information Free.
The valuable Information which Mrs.
Pullen read ln a newspaper many
years ago and gave to her son, together
with further Important facts, will be
sent free to any reader of this who
writes to Eugene M. Pullen, 1425 Mar
cellus avenue, Manasquan, N. J., en
closing a stamp for reply. Mention
the kind of rupture you have, whether
on right or left side and what
have already done ln your effort no
cure It. A legion of cases of all kinds
of rupture in men and women, Includ
ing inguinal (groin), femoral, naval,
scrotal, etc., have been reported com
pletely healed. Age seems to make no
difference Advertisement.
