DR. DIXM GIVES
IDEAS ON "CURES"
Health Commissioner Puts Out One
of His Week-end Talks on
Timely Topic
State Commissioner of Health Sam
uel G. Dixon In one of his week-end
talks urges that people bewaro of
alleged cures and to take only well
known remedies for the ills which
come in winter time.
The doctor's remarks are along this
line:
"We are continually reading of the
gullible individuals who Invest their
money in all manner of get-rich-quick
schemes. These poor dupes are the
laughing stock of sensible men and
women, who wonder how they could
bo misled by the exaggerated promises
of fake promoters. For every Indi
vidual who invests with these unscrup
ulous financial sharks there are a
dozen equally gullible people who
throw away their money and risk their
health and happiness by investing in
fake cures. A man may lose his money
and be none the worse for it in the
long run if he profit by his experi
ence, but the use of consumption
cures, soothing syrups. Spring tonics
and cure-alls of every description is
fraught with genuine danger. Often
times these quack remedies contain
habit-forming drugs. The ailing men
and women who trust to these and
delay consulting an experienced phy
sician are trifling with their most
precious possession—health.
"Physicians of professional stand
ing do not advertise. Any man who
claims in print or elsewhere that he
has an unfailing cure for the ills of
humanity should be regarded with the
utmost suspicion. Traveling quacks
advertising under tlielr own names or
as "medical institutes" should be
strictly avoided. They prey upon the
weak and ailing. The majority of
their advertisements begin with ex
travagant promises of free treatment,
and in the long run they usually suc
ceed in ileecing their patients out of
far more than a regular physician
would have charged to attend the case.
Ninety-nine times out of a hundred the
poor patients are worse off than they
were in the beginning. All too often
there is a tragic ending. Medical
ethics require a physician to give
freely to the world all discoveries
which may benellt humanity. This is
rigidly adhered to by all physicians of
any professional standing. The estab
lished physician, like "the established
merchant, depends for his livelihood
upon his reputation for fair dealing
and his ability as a practitioner."
Arrangements Being Made
For Vanderbilt Funeral
By Associated Press
Washington, D. C., March 7.—Ar
rangements for the funeral of George
W. Vanderbilt were delayed to-day
pending conferences between his
brother. Frederick W. Vanderbilt, and
other members of the family. Efforts
were being made to communicate with
William K. Vanderbilt, who is abroad.
It is regarded as probable that tllfe
body will be taken to New York to
day or to-morrow and buried on tlio
old Vanderbilt estate at New Dorp,
| Staten Island.
Too Many Divinity
Schools, Says Yale Man
New Haven, Conn., March 7.-
"There are too many divinity schools
in this country," declared the Rev.
Anson Phelps Stokes, secretary of Yalt,
University, to the Religious Education
Association to-day, "and many of them
are hopelessly sectarian. Only 10 out
of 82 are classed as nonsectarian.
Many of the smaller schools have onlv
a trifling income and their training of
men for the ministry is Inadequate.
Only 20 out of 82 are connected with
great universities."
COMMISSION WILL INVESTIGATE
THE INDUSTRIAL SITUATION
Washington, D. CT., March 7.—Far
reaching Inquiry into practically all
phases of the industrial situation in
this country with a view to making
important recommendations to Con
gress shortly will be undertaken by
the federal industrial relations com
mission. In announcing this fact to
day Frank H. Walsh, chairman of the
commission, stated that public hear
ings would be held in the principal in
dustrial centers, beginning probably
the last of March and continuing
through the early summer.
SHOOT MAD DOGS

g gailWWWMlHighway Depart
gjß ." .jyji. JQ ment and dozens
THfte— 11 *- •'win of bills for such
work are being returned with infor
mation that the State Is not bound ex
cept for such work as la ordered on
main highways by its superintendents.
This is the first tlmo Father Penn has
ever been called upon to pay for
shoveling snow and the people at the
Capitol are somewhat surprised at the
bills that have been coming in. Ap
parently some of the supervisors open
ed up highways without being order
ed to do so and some sent bills for
work on highways which are not un
der State control.
It is expected that the cost of open
ing up State main highways, where
the work was handled by the superin
tendents and which was extensive be
cause of the huge drifts in eastern
countries will run into thousands of
dollars, this being the ilrst time the
State has been called on for this task
since the Commonwealth 'ook over
the main highways.
Meetings Ahead. —Meetings will be
held •within a short time in several of
the cities of the State by the State
Industrial Accidents Commission,
which Is in charge of the drafting of
an employers liability law and the
suggestion of people and organizations
interested will be invited. The sched
ule of meetings has not yet been made
up.
Tlio State Dependents Commission
has outlined Its study of the ways and
means of caring for those who by dis
ease, misfortune or accident can not
care l'or themselves and a compre
hensive plan will be submitted to the
Legislature. Other commissions in
charge of charitable and correctional
projects approved by the last legisla
ture will meet within a month to ac
tively prosecute their work.
Counties Must Pay. Dr. Joseph
Kalbfus, secretary of the State Game
Commission, has put the question
whether counties must not pay the
bounties for scalps of noxious ani
mals and birds whether they receive
an appropriation from the State reim
bursing them or not. In the opinion
of the game oiflclal the acts of 1907
and 1913 are alike and the counties
are called upon to pay for the scalps
as a matter of business and whether
the legislature pays them back or not
is silent. The decision of the legal
department will make a big difference
to many counties which have refused
to pay until the State shows some
signs of paying over income from the
hunters' licenses, which the fiscal au
thorities can not bo touched without a
specific appropriation.
Must Install Train. —The Public Ser
vice Commission has recommended
that an evening service between Pino
Grove and Outwood bo installed for
the accommodation of the miners re
siding along the 8. & S. branch of the
Reading Railroad. The schedule calls
for a train that will reach Outwood
not later than 0 o'clock p. nv This
service will take miners home direct
ly from the mines and they will no
longer bo compelled to walk several
miles. The commission found that it
would not reasonable to order a
morning service from Outwood be
cause it would involve a net loss of
$25 daily to the Reading Company.
Meters Questions Up. —Public ex
pression of opinion in regard to regu
lations governing tho use of meters
for water, electricity, gas and steam
in Pennsylvania will be heard by the
Public Service Commission at a hear
ing announced to-day for Monday,
March 16. Representatives of all pub
lic utility corporations who may de
sire to appear will be heard, accord
ing to this arrangement: 10 a. m.
for water; 12 noon for steam; 2 p. ni.
for gas and 4 p. m. for electricity.
In the last few weeks the question
of regulation of meters has come in
from several of the cities of tho State
and so many angles have been pre
sented that the commission has deter
mined to seek the views of all inter
ested.
Superior Court. The Superior
Court will begin its March sitting here
to-day with twenty-six cases listed, in
cluding eight from this county and
a number from York, Clearfield, Cen
